    • If there are multiple secrets, then it will fly from one to the other.
  • (in Repentance) This item belongs to the BeelzebubBeelzebub set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into a giant humanoid fly.

Notes[]

  • The familiar will sometimes hover over a pit, Poop or empty tile, indicating that an unreachable crawl space has been generated there.
    • (except in Repentance) Although it might seem intuitive to dig the spot open with We Need To Go Deeper! or Rune of EhwazRune of Ehwaz, their chance of spawning a crawl space is independent and not guaranteed to work.
  • An extra crawl space that is added by Stud FinderStud Finder won't be identified by the familiar.

Trivia[]

  • This item is a reference to the fairy Navi in the The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, who guides the player during the game with the catchphrase, "HEY, LISTEN."
    • The item name and description both being “Yo listen!” is a joke about how frequently Navi interrupts the player, to the point of annoyance.
  • MEAT!, YO LISTEN!, PHD, G FUEL! and (in Repentance) TMTRAINER are the only ALL CAPS items in the game.
