What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

The Binding of Isaac is praised by players for being fun and engaging, with particular appreciation for its flash animations and replayability despite its age. The main complaint centers around the lack of in-game item information, which players find frustrating when trying to understand what their items do during gameplay.

Recommended Oct 2, 2026
Solid game. I remember playing the flash demo over and over on newgrounds in middle school, never bought this version and got rebirth on xbox instead. 7000 hours on rebirth later and somehow the flash version is kicking my ass. Highly recommend

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
