Behavior[edit | edit source]

Isaac lies on the ground in the middle of the room does not begin attacking until he takes damage.
During all three of Isaac's phases, he continuously shoots multiple projectiles in the player's direction at fixed intervals. After taking enough damage, he begins to shoot double projectiles and triple projectiles.

Phase 1[edit | edit source]

Isaac remains stationary on the ground and performs the following attacks:

  • Shoots 10 lines of projectiles in every direction.
  • Shoots 8 groups of projectiles in a that curve back towards him.
  • Shoots 8 groups of long-range spinning projectiles along with 10 slightly curved lines of shorter-range projectiles in every direction.

Phase 2[edit | edit source]

Isaac stands up but remains stationary and performs the following attack:

  • Isaac alternates between two projectile patterns:
    • Shoots 4 projectiles in a cross pattern, which splits into four short-ranged projectiles after a short time, similar to 15►Cricket's Body Cricket's Body.
    • Shoots 8 projectiles in all directions.

Independently of his projectile attack:

Phase 3[edit | edit source]

Isaac grows a pair of angelic wings and is no longer stationary, moving towards where the player is predicted to go with short dashes. During which he also performs the following attacks:

  • Teleports off-screen and summons 15►Crack the Sky Crack the Sky beams to cover the screen, starting from one of the top corners to the opposite bottom corner. After teleporting back on-screen, he shoots the 10 lines of projectiles from the first phase. He always performs this attack at the start of this phase and repeats this process every time he takes a certain amount of damage.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Isaac was added in the Wrath of the Lamb DLC for the original The Binding of Isaac.
  • Isaac, along with ???, teleport away upon defeat and do not "die".
  • Isaac's expression as he changes phases during the fight goes from a somber, scared tone to him smiling in his third phase. This supports the theory that Isaac has made peace with himself and realized what he must do, as seen through the multiple endings of the game.
  • The music that plays during this boss fight is titled Infanticide.[1] The term infanticide refers to the act of killing an infant or newborn.
    • In the original Wrath of the Lamb DLC, the song is was My Innermost Apocalypse.
