Let's be honest - Isaac's core gameplay isn't that great. Circling rooms shooting guys endlessly is not that fun and it's not like any of the game's random levels present particularly interesting challenges.

The fun of Isaac is in the ever-growing numbers of items and modifiers that you bolt on to yourself throughout the course of a run. That "what am I going to get next?" aspect to the game's hundreds of upgrades is super fascinating and makes it feel like a true capital-r roguelike where the possibilities are kind of endless and no two runs are even remotely the same. It's empty calories due to the gameplay not being super appealing but the insane combos that you get more than makes up for it.
