Quietly sitting at an 84 average. The algorithm never did this one any favors. Horror that commits — fantasy atmosphere, real dread, and scares that aren't cheap. The story is the main course; the multiplayer is the reason it's still installed years later.

About this game

The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ is a dungeon-crawling shoot-'em-up that's literally a different game each and every time you play it! The randomly generated maps are built with over 11,000 unique room configurations, each populated with a nearly endless variety of enemies, items, challenges and secrets!

When Isaac's mother starts hearing the voice of God demanding a sacrifice be made to prove her faith, Isaac escapes into the basement facing droves of deranged enemies, lost brothers and sisters, his fears, and eventually his mother.
