I love seeing Isaac smile in these endings.
He's just one of those characters that you just wanna hug forever.
I feel so sorry for the little guy! His mom does terrible things to him, and hes, what, seven years old?
+FANTASTIC_EEL Nah 7 seems right since he can read, write walk and talk and seems to have tangibles interests
***** I want confirmation :/
***** Is he home schooled?
+Keurgui1 It has been confirmed in the song "Dear Diary". An official bonus song for the upcoming expansion "Afterbirth". You can listen to it on CZcams.
Bucketninja how does the sog cofirm he's 4?
*Isaac gets fez*
Okay
*Isaac gets noose after getting fez*
Wait a second-
It might be referencing Judas killing himself after he got Jesus arrested.

@Slashy does a thing I was referencing how Judas died.
Also what I said is actually in the bible.

The art has definitely improved in the remakes, feels somewhat nice to look where it all began
Also look ay super meat boy and spewer's Animations
They have the same style as BOI
@@Kirb08Mrls because all three were made by the same creator
i miss the old art style, while i love the new repentance endings, afterbirth & afterbirth+ endings are kinda hard to look at and have like a different art style for each ending, which feels very inconsistent.
edmund's art style i feel is more fitting for the game's objects, items, and scenery in general
its been confirmed hes 5.
when you look at this game you now it was made on newgrounds in 2011
5:18 now isaac went full swag.
@Wizardjackk OH NO ISAAC IS BALLIN
swag
The ending theme is so unsettling
Max Beer Exactly. Anything German related is unsettling. I mean, Jet Fighters, Voltswagons, Hamburgers, U-Boats, and this ending theme.
Max Beer Don't be offended. My dad's half German.
John Guy Is that the English-German translation? Why did they have it sound like that?
John Guy Kind of hard to hear the words with the synthesized voices.
John Guy Not really. I can only recognize if it's written or spoken in German, but I hardly know any of the words meanings. I'd have better luck translating a cat's meows lol
For those who dont know, the story is a reference to the old testament story of Abraham and Isaac. When God asked abraham to kill his son, issac, to prove his devotion, god interveined right before he was going to kill his son, and said he had proved his loyalty. Abraham and issac then sacrificed a ram together, and lived out the rest of their lives as a loving family. Issac then lived on and had the many children that they were promised.
Joe Andrews FINALLY SOMEONE GET IT!!
I knew that from the title.
That's kinda fucked up still
Joe Andrews So many games are getting based off the old testaments now.
***** said my thoughts basically, gj actually analyzing the Bible instead of letting it get shoved in ur earholes like most people who don't really understand why or what they believe in!
I posted this as a reply to someone confused at the story, but I feel as if more people would see this if I posted this as it's own comment. So here's what I think of this game's story:
You notice how the intro and epilogue cutscenes are literally written on paper Isaac pins to his wall? This is all in Isaac's head; his mom isn't trying to kill him, but Isaac blames god for making his mom all abusive. For starters, Isaac has multiple personality disorder, all the playable characters are Isaac.
Secondly, Edmund McMillen, the creator of the game, has stated multiple times that parents shaving their kid's head and dressing them as a girl in public as a punishment are signs of religious abuse. When Isaac draws out the Bible/God killing mom, that what he wishes would happen, but he feels that both his mom and God are against him. Isaac also views himself as corrupt and impure, as shown by a few endings when he appears demonic.
Lastly, the Chest. Not only is "The Chest" the final area in the original game, but it serves as Isaac's getaway from the harsh and abusive reality to a place of imagination and pretend. I assume Isaac used to keep his toys in there until his mom took them away, so now he uses the chest to hide in and escape to a world of pretend where he overcomes great fears and monsters such as Satan and his own mother... but then it eventually kills him. Yeah, this "???/Blue Baby" character is Isaac when he dies of suffocation. Ending 11 suggests that this was an act of suicide because he sees himself as corrupt and to end all the suffering and abuse, but who knows, it could have been by accident.
There's also Isaac's father who, in all honestly, isn't all that important to the story. The Polaroids suggest that there was a time where Isaac and his family was happy, but the father left for unknown reasons. This is when Isaac's mom most likely turned to religion for guidance and... things went downhill from there.
In a nutshell, the story's about some messed up kid who has multiple personality disorder and loves to pretend, but has a religiously abusive mother and sees himself as impure. In the end, he kills himself because he can't take it anymore. No happy story here folks, just suffering and death.
This comment didn't got a single reply and no likes ?! ( i would to thank you , that you wrote this comment to see that im not only one of these guys that doesn't understand this story)
I knew this game was depressing but bloody hell.
this game can get weird but the story makes sense... (sort of)
Millsbuddy Cute picture
This whole story is so messed up...
*Kills Satan, his own self, his dead self, Angels, a much harder form of Satan, The Lamb, Delirium, Hush, his mother, and much more forms of evil.*
*Can use simple items to kill enemies with his own tears, scythes, knives, lasers, blood lasers, and more.*
*Is like 5 or something.*
Azazels Offline is also dead. None of this is real, just issac dieing in a toy chest
Richard Gibson that's just a theory, but i think it's confirmed
@@richardgibson8403 *SHUT MOUTH*
@@mostaphaelhasnaoui6061 Isaac was long dead, possibly before the events of the game.
And yet he died a virgin.
the ending with him suffocating in the chest is isaac realizing hes dying in the chest he crawled into to hide from his mom, making him wake up too his escapist day-dream he created to ''defeat'' his mom.
Muy cierto y que fuerte y realista... un niño a esa edad lo unico que se le pasaria por la mente es imaginar todo lo que imagino Isaac para poder derrotar a su madre, mientras se esconde mal e inocentemente de ella. Sin exito... solo le espera la muerte...
To think where this game is now, getting its third dlc, with such an intricate plot compared to what we originally thought.

@@xantana6430 I wasn't- I just like darker things ^^" sorry-
Aww, poor Isaac on ending 11.
umm...ending 2...
Ending 11 is basically a sadder version of ending 2. He reads the Bible, and it says being human is Sin, so he looks in the mirror and sees hes a demon, so he goes into the chest and suffocates himself.
Linkachu oh wow that's why he went in the chest.
well thats horafing
Tdog redman It also might explain ending 10, the ded body in the chest.
Here's my theory: There is a family. In this family, there is a mother, a father, and a young boy. Now, this young boy is rather strange. He is very socially awkward, he likes to cross dress, and sometimes there's a dark shadow that follows him around. Despite how strange this young boy is, the family is still very happy. The boy never caused anybody harm and actually seems to be very decent. Both parents love each other, and both parents love him as a son, perhaps especially his mother. Unfortunately, something strange happened to this boy. One day, this "shadow" affected the boy, and the boy killed his father. The mother realized that the boy killed his father, but she doubted that it was truly out of his own will. So, she buries the father on top of the hill and keeps the boy near home so she could watch over him closely. Of course, she doesn't love her boy as much as she used to. Even though she desperately wants to love him, sometimes she gets so angry that her boy caused the death of her husband that she does mean things to him like giving him presents full of poop. The boy, of course, gets very sad by his mother's treatment of him at times, and he also gets sad that he realizes that his father's death was, at least in some way, his fault. Some time passes. The boy starts to feel a little better. The mother, however, starts seeing that the shadow that was sometimes seen surrounding her son return with greater frequency. She turns to christian television to find answers to her son's strangeness. Her son is oblivious to the reason why she watches television with such attention. She really does start hearing voices from god, since god is trying to keep the "shadow" from infected the boy. However, she doesn't understand how to keep the "shadow" away, so she takes his toys and his clothes away from him, and then forces him into his room. Finally, god, knowing that the boy cannot be saved from the "shadow" tells the mother to kill her boy. She agrees. The boy, meanwhile in his room, hears this commotion. He knows that his mother will try to kill him. So, in a second, he imagines a god intervening on his behalf to save him. This doesn't happen. No, instead he takes out the Bible and starts reading it in the hopes to save his soul. Unfortunately, he sees himself turning into different evil people and finally the devil. He gets sad and starts to realize that something really is wrong with him. So, he locks himself in the treasure chest and finally becomes the "shadow". Once this happens, the mother comes in to his room, knife in hand, and sees that her son isn't there. So, she goes outside and starts looking for him. Of course, she never finds him. A year later, she opens up the chest in her son's room and finds his dead corpse. Startled by her son's corpse and by her fear that the "shadow" is still there and not wanting to call the police, she digs a huge cave underneath his bedroom and puts the chest in there.
I actually like this theory of the story by ffdaz I think its called back story to the binding of Issac I suggest u go watch it its a pretty good theory and video
@Philip Tsurkan um, yea
well, that was kinda right.. execpt for most of it
Am i the only one who thought maybe Issac's Mom has Schizophrenia?
EDIT- I do understand the concept is based on the Bibles story of Abraham, specifically the line of "God said to Abraham, you shall kill your son Issac".
Really? You don't FUCKING SAY!!
a christian would disagree :D
Im not alone :)
Im christian doe
As a person who believes in God, she might have schizophrenia.
TheTrueRman We don't know that yet. God may have talked to her. Or maybe it was something else. Who knows.But I do agree that she may have Schizophrenia.
This is Doctor Fetus :D Super Meat boy yeah
Pontifex Tigris Maximus doctor fetus :OO
The creator of the binding of isaac is the same who created super meat boy,so yeah
The "blue baby" is actually Isaac's corpse
rly?D:
yeah :S
Almendra Miku But it is
Yeah...
You for real?
The writers of this game are extremely creative. The symbolism and open endedness of the story are fantastic
*defeats own mother, travels inside her own womb and obliterates her literal heart*
"FUCK YEAH, A QUARTER!"
So then Isaac gets in the chest to escape reality/ his mom, and dies suffocated? Because sometimes in those memories he gets when changing floors you can see him trapped in a chest breathing very heavily. Also, I don't think he has a sister, because in other of this memories you can see him receiving a gift, probably from her mother (who wanted a girl maybe?). And in fact, if I'm not mistaken, every character is Isaac, and "???" Would be him dead? I mean, he's coming out of the chest in the 10th ending, it kinda makes sense to me idk
mom and dad had isaac, then, maggie, and mom loved maggie more than isaac, so isaac feels envy; maggie dies; dad disappear, isaac feels guilty, and then in the "polaroid" end, he decides to live his life, crying, in another version, he dies suffocate.
the gifts where from his mother making him appear to maggie and making him feel like a "shit"
Isaac, Maggie, Judas, Cain, Eve, Samson and ??? are Isaac, using common toys
Isaac is isaac, we love isaac
Maggie has 4 hearts, because mom loves her
Judas is hated
Cain killed his brother
Eve has a curse (envy, for isaac)
Samson ... XD
??? is the desire of isaac to be dead
whoaaaa that was nice :o did you figure that out or did you read it somewhere? Or was it too ovbios and everyone except me got it? :p
i read and some logic i have used OWO
blue baby is a dead version of Isaac he locks himself in the chest because he can't live with him self some how he meats him self again #paradox also sister maggy and brother bobby are moms aborted children
nop, is Isaac's wish to be dead; sometimes it seems to have a scar in the belly, and is blue because (someone is called blue baby in playgr.) he cant breathe
Este fue el primer video que vi de este hermoso juego, gracias like
As for Isaac swapping to everyone before he jumps in the chest and closes it in on himself, may be a reference to past lives that he has had, overwhelmed with the past memories or such, or could have been people that he might have been, depending on circumstances in the womb. As for the demon in Isaac's room, I'm not exactly sure how to debunk that one. Perhaps a realization of early sadistic and evil intentions based on aggressive playouts to win, determine he's something evil to survive?
It’s amazing to compare the endings for the original and for repentance back to back, and see just how much the game has grown over the years
are these endings influenced by your gameplay or are they random?
(never played the game )

zeenine the cactus Ending 7? That isn't a button that is a Eucharist. Also the gameplay that gets it is by beating the game up to that point 7 times. Each time you beat it you unlock a new ending/new item.
camila
this is a very scary game
I love this game way to much
This is such a dark, twisted, and amazing story to go along with a really great game.
I remember reading an interview with the creator saying that the game was all just Isaac attempting to cope with what's happening by making the choice to get in the chest. It's sad but even through all the stuff he goes through, he eventually realizes that there's no way out of this.
I like ending 7 when he gets communion bread. So heartwarming.

It's one of the fascinating games that has a deeper meaning which toys with your brain, leaving you sad and scared
Ending 12.... made me cry.... then rethink my play-through of the game..... cry.. again..... then rethink my entire life....... Takin' this game's experience(s) to the grave......
Ending 5 and 8 were literally the funniest endings to a depressing game ever
Such a very interesting story. This is not the kind of game you can just take one look and understand it. You have to really look at it on all sides and keep an open mind. Its not just one thing or the other, the story says a bunch of things. It tackles things that we don't like to talk or think about. Kudos to this guy for creating a game that makes you think. I haven't had the chance to play a game like that since Silent Hill.
Try the first Dark Souls.
Mihai-Cristian Popa But DaS1's story was more "fixed yet still deep lore hidden under wraps".
BoI has some kind of required amount of imagination and personal interpretation

interesting to see that these endings were actually different in vanilla isaac, like unlocking judas instead of eden, or getting the nail, or wafer, or money=power
I like how this version includes the last part in the intro
As weird as this game is, it is fun as heck and addicting.
Issac is a cute little anime character to me makes me sad he doesn't really get a happy ending
Yes He Does Ending 13 Shows His Mother That Culture Is Not Sin And I Guess
Every Was Happy After That.
I'm guessin you assume that because of the last picture they show
Well, the story is pretty dark and depressing anyway.... I mean, it's about a boy who used to have a family of four until his sister died. His mother was traumatized because of it and became overzealous and fanatical towards Christianity. Isaac's father couldn't handle it anymore and decided to leave. Isaac's mother began to grow abusive and eventually almost killed Isaac (until an angel intervened and knocked her out with a bible).
Isaac read the bible and felt demonized because the old testament almost states that being human is a sin. Feeling ashamed, he locked himself inside the physical chest as well as a mental "chest" where the game takes place. Every time you die, Isaac is brought back to reality. Every victory you have, he slips further away from reality. When you fight Isaac in the Cathedral, it is his last chance to accept his reality and get out of both the physical and mental chest alive. When you fight blue baby, it is too late for Isaac. Blue baby is his new reality because he is dead. If you kill blue baby, he is victorious in escaping reality altogether and will still die, but thinking he is a hero of sorts.
TL;DR
Isaac is dying inside of a chest, the game is about him choosing illusion over reality. More victories = deeper into illusion (and eventual death in reality). More defeats = realization and acceptance of reality (and living that reality).
Keep in mind: ending 12 was confirmed to actually happen before ending 11

Not really
Man the credits song go hard
In repentance, we see his dad telling him a story at the end.
I'm guessing that his father took him back and Isaac wasn't very good at the time, so he offered to tell a story. He ready Isaac's drawings and sees how messed up he is.
There's also the possibility he just imagined it and starved to death

So God wants Isaac's mother to kill Isaac,but just when Isaac was about to die, god stopped his mother. Wtf?
The game is based off the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac. Isaac's mom is Abraham who was told to sacrifice Isaac but God stopped him
I love the last Ending, Ending 13, it has the hast music
5:15 I want that as a character named The Pimp
4:31 Dr Fetus from super meat boy!!!
I feel also in my heart (no pun intended) that Ending 10 is also a part in that order, it being the last of it. Is it possible that Isaac has somehow proceeded through a sort of time paradox and found himself in the chest?
This is the first game of binding of Isaac
Duuuuh
Wrath of the Lamb yea
Memories.
the music when he opens the chest sounds like cendrillon.
Ending 4 and 8 are priceless.
In ending 13, has anyone noticed what sounds like a knock like, or thud like noise in the audio at 6:24 to 6:26? I just noticed that just now. Is it just me; then? Hmmm...Must be...

во время показа второго интро я заметил что айзик любит рисовать перевёрнутые молотки 2:40
I don't understand this game's story. Can someone explain it to me?
It's very deep story actually. Just google it
I dont know exactly how the story goes. But if im right its about The binding of isaac a part of the Hebrew bible. Abraham hears gods voice and has to kill his own son. Right when he was about to slay his own son an angle stopped and told him he feared god. Then a ram appeared infront of him and he sacrificed the ram instead of his own son.
Isaac is a little boy who loved drawing and playing video games. One day, his (abusive) mother heard god asking her to kill Isaac, and so she grabbed a butchers knife and chased after him. Isaac gets trapped in a corner, with his mom bearing down on him, ready to kill him, when god intervened, knocking a bible off of the shelf, hitting his mom in the head. Isaac then celebrates, but his mom wakes up, and doesnt realize that god was telling her to let her son live, and tries to kill Isaac again. Although this time, Isaac has the upper hand, and manages to kill his mom, but now, he has sinned greatly, and has to face judgement, either by killing himself, or fighting the demons inside of his mind, and then ridding his mind of satan.
JoJoJet Thank you.
sorry that i was *a bit* late
6:54 what song is this?
Altered "Jesus Love Me" i heard
wtf was that at the end!?!?
Issac.
It was isaac. He was so scared that his mom was going to kill him he hid in the chest. Then he gets locked in the chest and suffocates because lack of oxygen then when he opens the chest he sees his dead corpse
Can't believe that this game is so old already 😢
Here's how I see it. The narrator is adult male. Might suggest retrospect or external observation. Isaac is drawing at the time the narration starts, so, the narration begins AFTER dad exits the family. Dad and Mom hold hands. They create Isaac. Then mom dresses Isaac as a girl. Dad leaves. Mom tries to dress him as a boy again but it's too late. The boy clothes are evil because she sees Isaac as a girl. Isaac probably identifies as a girl. The penis though reveals Isaac's greatest shame. Whenever it is revealed he weeps. He hates it. Isaac wants to be a girl. Mom flips out because Isaac's gender dysphoria drove her husband away. Destroy the freak! Isaac in his self-view has no penis. Only the nightmares show him with a penis. The imaginary world beneath the chest in the imaginary basement under his room allows him to explore himself. But no matter what, he suffers guilt and sorrow. His drawings represent his sins. His life force, hearts, represent how close to death each persona brings him in his attempt to kill himself. He sees the Bible as a measure he cannot live up to. In the mirror he is still dark and wicked compared to the Bible's representation of Jesus. Mom isn't going to sacrifice Isaac. Isaac is going to kill himself so mom can win dad back...sacrifice himself. But as he struggles to choose life and to be himself, he feels more and more evil for being selfish, considering his own needs above his mother's happiness. He blames God for creating him to be an anomaly that drove away love. The absence of the dad in the photo with the blonde girl shows that it was mom that created the girl, mom and dad were together to create the boy. The game endings reveal whether or not Isaac decides to kill himself.
In the original story, Abraham wasn't allowed to sacrifice Isaac. It was a theophany of God's sacrifice of Jesus far into the future. God had prepared a ram for the sacrifice, and Isaac was spared; though Jesus would not be spared. This Isaac would also be spared. It was the Lord of Flies commanding mom...not God. God intervenes to save Isaac. Aside from Mom and Isaac, there's nothing else in the house except for her increasing madness from losing her husband over her misbegotten daughter-son, and Isaac's personal hell, being blamed by mom for it. Isaac perceives that all is well and happy, even though it isn't. Mom and Isaac in a house on a hill all alone and happy, drawing and writing stories, living in an imaginary world that becomes quickly tainted by religious extremism and demonic persuasion. Glad to see God in the end prevents a horrible mistake. The victorious Isaac rises above the BLAME of his mother and chooses his own life is worth living, and mom can find her own way. The story written out is not about murder of mom, but of how Isaac reconciles his inner struggles of guilt, blame, self-hate and identity and gender crises.
Ugh, I'm not sure that this is actually what the creators intended it to be, but I like your theory. Really interesting! ^_^
bradley hawley 0/10 for being a fanboy.
0/10 for using a shitty emoticon.
The reason there's a "second" Isaac looking character, but with a wig, is because it is his sister, Magdelene. I think that when Isaac's Mom and Dad divorced, the Dad took Maggy with him, and Isaac's Mom made him dress like Maggy. (there's a theory that Maggy died of unknown reasons.) There's an in-game cutscene depicting Mom giving Isaac a present which holds a wig like Maggy's, but he's made fun of for wearing it.
Or Maggie is another persona created by gender dysphoria and the abusive laughter of other parents having disapproved of the child's self expression. The gift I believe preceded the photo of the child wearing the wig.
Seeing content of this game makes me so fucking depressed yet I don't even fully understand what I'm seeing.
There's actually a mod replaces the rebirth soundtrack with the original, and a mod that makes the enemies and characters look like their vanilla selves, and with imaginings of what the newer enemies and characters could've looked like
I love this game ♥♥♥ By the way, if you want other great roguelikes check out Enter the Gungeon and Modest Kind. They're dirt cheap on Steam too, similar to Isaac.
I understand what he is portraying. Either his parents were very strict or very abusive Christians, more than likely saying that it was "Gods plan" which is bullshit. I'm sad that these kind of people exist and make Christians like me look bad
And me
I remember watching an interview with him, and he said his entire family was really religious. He couldn't have a fun childhood, being forced to go to church twice a week and especially them disallowing him from all the average "growing up in the 90s stuff", Magic the Gathering cards, DnD, comics, and a lot of other things were viewed as satanic and he was barred from having them.
FrankyPlaysGames So...Isaac was modeled after his childhood? That...explains a lot. Very. Very much. Eeegh.
Sure is
No, it's an alternate version to the Abraham and Isaac story, it's not to make Christians look bad
4:33 the best xDDD
the music at the final ending creeps me
i honestly cried on ending 13... If you know what the story is about (google it!) and then you see this ending, with that music... Oh man
Wow. I'm really depressed right now. :(

I love the music in this intro more
4:31 Oh hi, Dr. Fetus!
I watched this because I didn't get Ending 1. I; killed Mom's Heart, got the achievement for beating the game, then a projectile left over from defeating Mom's Heart hit and killed me before I could open the chest.
R.I.P
ISAAC NEEDS TO CONFESS! NOT BE TORTURED!
