Items

Items are an integral part of the gameplay of [Binding of Isaac](/games?search=Binding of Isaac). They modify the parameters of our hero. The game features over 90 different items that can change the appearance of our character.

Obtaining Items

The primary way to obtain items is by visiting treasure rooms and battling bosses. Items can also be purchased in the "shop," traded with a beggar, broker a deal with the devil, or found in secret rooms.

Special Items

These items are stored in a special slot and are used by pressing the space bar. The item recharges after defeating all monsters in the room. Some items restore one charge bar, while others recharge faster. The battery item allows you to restore an item's charge even during combat.
