The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth 17+

It's Binding of Isaac, (almost) perfectly ported to iOS. Isaac is an amazing game that is by definition easy to learn, but hard to master. Randomly generated, with 100s of different items that shake things up, 50something bosses and 11 playable characters, it's well worth the money. If it's your kind of game, you could squeeze 100s of hours out of this. If not, it's still quite enjoyable. It does exactly what it sets out to do, and it's almost perfect. The only problem, as suggested by many others, is the controls. The sticks are fiddly, and that's bad in a twin stick shooter, especially one that requires some quick movement and precise shooting. It's the only thug keeping me from giving it a perfect score.

All in all, wait 'till they change the controls, then buy it first thing after they do.

I've been a fan of Binding of Isaac for around 6 years now. I bought the original, clocked it, bought Rebirth, clocked it, Afterbirth, clocked it. I thought the game'd be great when ported to iOS and voila, here it is. First of all, this game is fantastic. If you're remotely interested or if you've played Binding of Isaac before, buy this game. It is a great experience well worth the money for all the fun you can get out of it. The game looks beautiful, runs beautifully and it keeps the classic charm of Rebirth. The UI is incredibly well optimised for iOS which is something I can seriously appreciate. There's really only one thing I want to see in a future update (well, aside from Afterbirth DLC ;D) is a D-Pad or a joystick system with a constant location. I'm not a huge fan of how the base of the 'joystick' moves and it can cause a lot of inconsistencies in movement and shooting. I'm sure you can get used to it but I feel it would be a nice option for those who prefer different types of controls. Overall, though, I give this game 5 stars because regardless of the controls, it is an incredible game. Thanks so much Ed McMillan and Nicalis!!~

The controls feel loose compared to the pic version, I've had countless times of frustration where one side of the control scheme starts operating using the other side of the tablet, in a game which requires as much precision as the binding of Isaac this is a big deal, I find it harder to do precision movements than in the pic version, the game is pretty expensive for a port and doesn't include afterbirth, the achievements aren't in the game, there are unlocks but they are hidden in the settings, don't show any pop up on completion and take forever to go through, in saying all this I loved the pc iteration and this game is still better than practically anything else on the mobile market so I would still recommend the game but I feel the asking price is a bit ridiculous considering you can get GTA sa a much larger game in scope for almost half the price, the only reason I even considered spending this much money on a mobile port is because the binding of Isaac is my favourite game, if my problems with the port were alleviated I would almost feel justified in spending so much.
