Tell me about Binding of Isaac…I haven’t checked to see if you wrote a review, I should probably do that.
 
There isn't a short description but I'll try lol: It's a roguelike, you play as Isaac As a small child, your mother hears a voice from God saying that you've become corrupt and that you need to be sacrificed. SO, you run to your room and hop down a trap door into your basement to escape mom. You fight your way down further and further until you reach and defeat Mom as the "final boss".

Gameplay is pretty standard roguelike material. Each room you enter will lock down until all enemies are cleared. You explore each floor room by room and find power up items, and consumables like keys, bombs, and coins. Coins can be spent in the shops to buy items. Each floor has a boss fight, and when you defeat it, you gain access to the next floor below. There are a CRAZY amount of unlocks that happen as you achieve different milestones in the game, and more gameplay is revealed. The more you play, the more the game and story develop, more bosses and end game scenarios are uncovered, more playable characters are opened accessible... its... addicting.

I'm on a boat!
Damn…I didn’t plan on adding a 500+ hour game to my backlog…that sounds awesome!
 
I'd definitely label it as a niche or if it were a film: "cult classic" just because it's not for everyone, but the people that enjoy it tend to obsess over it. Would highly recommend watching a few streamers and youtube videos of some gameplay before taking the plunge. There's also a BUNCH of DLC that can get kinda confusing. As you may have been able to tell, I'd be MORE than happy to help and talk to you about it, I have a thing for getting people into this game, just ask @mcitaly and @muchmoosen haha
