Backpack

Probably THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEM (at least at first)!!! The more the merrier. You cannot have enough Backpacks. This is where you'll store all the goodies you find in your adventures and each backpack has a limited capacity.

Where to Find
You start without any, but have a natural carrying capacity of 5.0 kg of stuff. Each backpack carries 3.0 kg (OK, less it's own weight is 1.0 kg: so a net gain of 2.0 kg per pack). You can (and hope to) get these from all the higher critters: Trolls, Troodonts, Dragons, and even Dusk Trees if they ate one of the above. Upgrades start at 100 gold, and increase your carrying capacity by 1.0 kg. Successive upgrades become more expensive (200, 400, etc...)

Hint for Beginners:

  • Most players agree that upgrading each backpack at least once is well worth it. Not only will the first upgrade only cost 100 gold, it lets you carry 1kg more weight and it can be dumped for 100 extra gold - so it is like free gold storage. However, after the first upgrade it gets less cost effective.
