My mother told me to write this review or she'd stab me with a knife.

While this is technically on Repentance's page, it also serves for the game in general since this DLC affects the entire base game as well. In general it's worth noting the best way to play Binding of Isaac if you've never done so is to try and get all prior DLC (they're required to run Repentance) and this from the start since it'll change a lot of your feelings. It's a lot of money though so just doing the base game is still fine, bur expect changes if you ever buy DLC.

Binding of Isaac: Repentance is the ultimate entry in the genre of rogues, I would easily claim it to be my favorite with little competition against it. There are so many items at this point that have different effects, but more importantly these effects combine in hundreds of different ways that can make any run interesting as hell. There are over a dozen characters each with their own unique gimmicks that change how you play pretty drastically in some cases. The variety of bosses is pretty large now that two new endings have been added, with both sides bringing new final fights that are climatic in their own right. Out of any rogue game, I truly feel as if this is the most replayable one out there and I doubt that will ever change.
