The Gamekid is an unlockable activated item.
Effect
Upon use, turns the character into a Pac-Man-like creature for six seconds and provides the following effects:
- Grants invulnerability.
- Inflicts fear on all enemies.
- Removes ability to shoot tears.
- Allows Isaac to deal contact damage to enemies.
- Replenishes half a 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 heart container loss from Health Down Pills or Devil Room deals.
- This item is superior to My Little Unicorn, as it can heal Isaac whilst also providing similar effects.
