Effects

Turns the character into a Pac-Man-like creature for six seconds and provides the following effects:

• Gives invulnerability.
• Inflicts fear on all enemies.
• Removes the ability to shoot tears.
• Allows Isaac to deal 40 contact damage to enemies, at the rate of one hit per second per enemy.
• Replenishes a Half Red Heart for every two enemies killed.

Notes

• The invulnerability effect negates all forms of damage, including health loss from Blood Donation Machines and Devil Beggars.
  • This also negates damage from entering or exiting a Curse Room, but the effect is immediately removed upon walking through the door.
• Does not prevent Red Heart container loss from Health Down pills or Devil deals.
• This item is very similar to My Little Unicorn, trading the extra speed for the ability to gain healing from killing enemies.
