Game information[]

The Binding of Isaac is a 2011 indie game designed by Edmund McMillen and Florian Himsl. It was released on Steam on September 28, 2011. Players control a crying naked child named Isaac or one of six other unlockable characters. After his mother receives a message from God demanding the life of her son as proof of her faith, Isaac flees into the monster-filled basement of their home.

On November 1, 2011, it was added to the Humble Indie Bundle as part of the Humble Voxatron Debut. The game and downloadable content was later featured in the Humble Indie Bundle 7. Additionally, the game and downloadable content was made available on the Humble Roguelike Weekly Bundle in January 2014. Developer Nicalis worked with McMillen to complete a remake of the game The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth which was released on 4 November 2014, bringing additional features that the developer could not implement in the original Flash version.

The game's title and plot were inspired by the Biblical story known as the "Binding of Isaac". According to McMillen, the game touches on dark, adult themes including child abuse, gender identity, infanticide, neglect, suicide, abortion, and how religion might negatively affect a child; all concepts which video games generally avoid.
