This is one of my favorite games in my library. This game has near infinite replayability. Every playthrough is different.

Pros:
- Infinite replayability
- Cool art style
- Lots of different enemies
- Challenging difficulty

Cons:
- Soundtrack is sometimes repetitive
- Some folks may find some content disturbing
- No tutorial. A wiki is almost mandatory to figure out some of the game mechanics.

This is an incredible game. It's a good go-to game if your short on time and just want to do a quick run.

This is the game you! YOU! Have been waiting for;

- The game where you want cancer!
- The game where you mutilate your own body so you cry more!
- The game where you can vomit blood to kill your enemies!

These enemies include:

- The Devil Himself!
- Your own Mother!
- Angels!
- Yourself!
- Your own rotted corpse!
- Babies that got lost!
- A fetus!
- A fly!

Items that you'll want!

- "Blood Clot"
- "Cancer"
- And a bunch of ♥♥♥♥ed up eye diseases!

Items you'll HATE:

- Bob's Brain!
- Cursed Eye!
- And a bunch of useless ♥♥♥♥ing Beans!

This game is honestly amazing. I mean, You spend about 100 hours geting the hang of it and then about 400 playing.

Seriously though, surely any game where you summon The Devil, Kill him in one hit and step back to admire yur work, but walk into a fly and die should be the game you want!

10/10. NEVER take Bob's Brain! Seriously, I have like 300+ hours and Bob's Brain kills me 99% of the time, you'll see...

Low-brow humor meets high-brow religious concepts meets rogue-like game design meets excellent controls. 9/10.


Not for evangelical Christians with no sense of humor.

This game deserves an actual review from me instead of a joke.

One of the best games I have ever played.

Pros:
- Endless replayability
- Each run might be similar to others, but will never be exactly the same
- Challenges that have you completely rethink how you play the game
- Diverse characters with entirely different concepts, strengths, and weaknesses
- Tons of achievements and new items to unlock to keep the game interesting
- Devil and Angel rooms that can supply you with items that are the most fun to use
- Godhead & Mega blast

Cons:
- Blue Baby
- Keeper
- The Lost
- Angel room items that aren't godhead, sacred heart, or spear of destiny

Simply a must-have on your Steam account. This is the kind of game that gives hundreds of hours of fun, challenges for a very cheap price on sales.

I also recommend it's DLC Afterbirth and I hope its next is this good too.

I hate this game. I can't stop playing it. It's fantastic. I hate it.

Get this game. It's a mindless shooter that in theory takes under half an hour to finish, but you probably won't finish for the first 30 or 40 runs. Each run is different, and the RNG can either ruin your game or carry you through it.

I really didn't have any interest in this game until I played it at my friends house. Now i can't get enough.

Side note: It plays great with the steam controller.

In my honest opinion the new Afterbirth DLC made the game a bit less fun, many more items, few doing actually fun stuff. I find myself being behind in damage or movement speed etc. pretty far into the game.

Still a fun concept, loved getting the Real Platinum God achievement, and fun to play from time to time, does not get old.

Alright so here's the thing. This game right here, The binding of issac : Rebirth, is a great game period. I could go on and on and on and on and on about what makes it great game. I'm not going to though. this game will shatter your soul and have you coming back for more and more and more. Take my advice, just get it and play and love it and call it george or whatever.

I personally LOVE this game. It may be because i played this game for 184 hours, but it gets insanely hard for challenges later on either because the developer is awesome at making good challenges, or I am just bad at this game, but in this game, you can get OVERPOWERED. but then you die then you are dead the you are mad then you wait an hour before you are playing again. But this game is super fun!
