Too many bugs (and not in a fun way). Also, the game is poorly optimised, and caused my PC to struggle on the lowest settings. Very frustrating, as I am a big fan of the original game and was looking forward to this.

A lot of fun for what it is. Small satisfying game.

A lot of fun. Scratches many of the itches games like Terraria, Minecraft, Starbound, etc. had created. A great addition to that library.

One of my favourite games. So much positive energy and fun to be had in this game, if you are okay with things being weird.

It is fun and the games are quick. Never feel the need to spend extra money which is wonderful.

The replay value is great, and for the most part, the game feels very fair. Skill is rewarded.

The only issue is that the community can be toxic.

The original Binding of Isaac in one of my favourite games of all time, and the sequel improves upon the original in every way possible.

Since the game is RNG heavy it makes sure that no two runs are the same, this allows for countless hours of enjoyment and due to the difficulty of the game it is extremely satisfying when you do beat it. Especially when you improve tactically, every enemy has their own movement patterns and firing patterns, when these become natural to you the game will become easier.

When I say that the game is hard that does not mean it is not fair, any discomfort you feel while playing is solely on the player. If you get dealt a bad hand by the RNG, it is still satisfying to overcome this disadvantage.

One great advantage of this version of the game is the art style, it being in a pixel format means that it is timeless since these types of game age a lot more gracefully.

I highly recommend you buy it.

As of writing this I am 500+ hours in and I have to say its one of the most enjoyable games I have played in a long time, It's really easy to just pick up, yet it also has the ability to make you stay playing for hours on end. Due to all the secrets, items, enemies and most importantly the difficulty it has a ton of replay value.

When I say difficult I really do mean it but the more you play the more you learn how to overcome many of the challenges that the game has to offer.

Another reason I enjoyed it was the randomly generated levels, this also comes with random enemies, items and secrets, so no two runs end up being the same.

The game also borrows a lot from Zelda, so if you are a fan of the level design and many of the mechanics of the early Zelda dungeons and items you will probably be a fan of this.


Other than the solid game play it is aesthetically pleasing because of Edmund McMillen's really fun and quirky art style.

I really recommend you pick up this title and the expansion pack as soon as possible.
