Story: You are Isaac, good boy and son. One day the voice of God talks to your mother and begins labeling you as corrupt. So your mother begins taking things away and imprisoning you. Eventually God is pleased with her work but demands a sacrifice, that sacrifice is her own son. Quickly hearing this you try to escape your room even though it's locked as tight as a prison cell, hearing her steps come ever so closer. With a little luck on your side there is a trap door under the rug, jumping in almost as soon as your mother swipes at you. Starting your journey to freedom and righting the wrong this God has started.
This is a very good game, it has a dungeon type feel [almost exactly] as some of the first Zelda games with different bosses and enemies. It has loads of power-ups and items, bosses and difficulty to keep you playing for quite some time. The skills requited the talent needed is definitely something that can be taken in when laying but that odd Genre tag is there for a pretty good reason. This game can give you bad items as well and make your invulnerable Isaac suddenly become a cowering baby or an almost dead Isaac into a slaughter house. This game will make you rage, but it's short enough to where you can keep trying it over and over and over again. Is has almost an addiction factor to it and it has collectables, lots of them from the items that can help you to odds and ends that are hidden in levels.
Rating: 69/100
Reason: This game, be it fun as it may, doesn't have the same frustrating charm as Dark Souls. This one sense it's so short you can set it down and try another time. It's a great game but how easy it is to screw up with one accidental button press is astonishing. Sense it starts the game fresh each time, it's easier to set down and come back to later.
