The SPOOKING of Isaac
a crazy new challenging way to play
Created 8 years ago
Welcome to the spook. Is Isaac no longer bewilderingly overwhelming and hard as hell? Do you miss it? This might help.


  • Shuffled and randomized enemy population
  • Rooms full of TREACHEROUS TRAPS and DEADLY SWARMS
  • Adjusted gameplay curve to start fast and hard and end faster and harder
  • New rules for special rooms allow and even force you to find new ways to strategize
  • Bigger and tougher fights with all bosses
  • Plentiful tricks and treats
  • A whole new way to play the game that won't come easy


At this point, no more patches are intended except for potentially bug fixes or emergency balance adjustments. If you find any bugs, let me know. Have fun!

Delete this account. I know this guy and the only mods he talks about are nude mods for elder scrolls oblivion. He's never even played Isaac.
Great mod! I love how it really changes up how you play and approach different aspects of the game. I've beaten it (to Mega Satan) with every character. I'm not sure if it was intended, but I usually got the key by using a sacrifice room. Still a very challenging mod and a lot of fun.
im commenting for the coin. but the mod looks good anyway
