Cricket's Head

Cricket's Head is a passive item.

Effects[]

The x1.5 damage multiplier does not stack with the x1.5 damage multiplier from Magic Mushroom, from the combination of The Book of Belial and Blood of the Martyr, or itself (by using an item such as Diplopia, for example). However, it will stack with any other multipliers, such as Sacred Heart.

The Parasite - Pick up any 2 of the following items in a single run: Bob's Rotten Head, Dead Cat, Cricket's Head, and Tammy's Head ( Any 2 items that have the 'dead' item tag).

In the original Binding of Isaac, this item was known as "Max's Head". Max was a non existing animal named after the rabbit of Edmund McMillen's sister.
- The filename for the item icon in the game files still refers to it as "Max's Head".
- According to Edmund's first post-Repentance Lore Stream^[1], the reason for the name change is due to the fact that it 'bugged him' to name an item after an animal that did not exist in a game that was written around his life.
Cricket's Head is named after one of Ed's former cats who is now rehomed, Cricket.
- According to Edmund's first post-Repentance Lore Stream, the reason for re-homing Cricket was that Cricket became increasingly moody after the death of one of Edmund's other cats named Guppy, which involved getting into fights with Tammy.
Although Cricket's Body and Cricket's Head are presumed to be from the same animal, Cricket's Body has darker fur color and spots than Cricket's Head.
