Very much worth it. The Binding of Isaac sounds simple, top down "rogue-like" game where you shoot tears at enemies while avoiding enemies and their tears.

However the appeal comes from two main sources, first are the items. Within BOI there are hundreds of different items you can collect which can do something as simple as giving you more health to the insane of giving you targeted missiles rather than tears. The second is how strategic you can be within the game, simple strategies can be using rocks to block yourself from damage all the way to using hundreds of items on the floor to reroll (or refresh) them into different items to get your perfect combination of powerups.

On top of this the setting has to be mentioned, it is dark. Not Amnesia dark but is beyond twisted, you are a small naked child named Isaac who runs into the cellar to escape your religious mother who has been told by "god" to kill you. On your adventures you come across cysts, fetuses various parts of your mother trying to kill you.

Lastly there is a remake in the works called The Binding of Isaac Rebirth. Will be written in C (or C++) giving the same gameplay but without the limitations of Flash (crashes are frequent when breaking the game).
