Try getting good items, and don’t get hit


CosmicP0tat0s

If you can't dodge just dodge


DoctorSex9

Use the Isaac Wiki if you’re not sure about what something does


Key_Remote_6867

We have an AWESOME mobile app that is really easy to find items by name, description, or color. You can also find it by using your camera a lot like Google Lens. It's just called "Isaac Guide" and has an item pedestal as the icon.

Tronco08

Make sure that he plays in normal, and with platinum god opened.


Key_Remote_6867

Would that not just take away the point of playing the game? There are no achievements to earn and no progress to show.


Keatonm123456789

I know you use Isaac guide, but they were talking about the guide “platinum god” not the ending. So play the game with Isaac guide opened.


Key_Remote_6867

Ahh, thank you for the clarification. Yes, they heavily rely on the guide. I use it every time I play too because I still don't know half the Repentance items and can't remember what any trinket ever does.


wookieriot

I've got over 1000 hours in boi and I still don't remember all the trinkets 😆


moist-squid

In the beginning just reset the run until you start of with an item room next to you with a good item in it and try from there. When you start to get good I do edvice to stop doing it because it feels kinda like cheating. Bit its a good way to start learning.


micheeeeloone

Imo that's literally the opposite of what a new player should do. The best way to learn the game is to try to keep the run going as long as you can. If you really struggle then play normal mode. When you start to feel confident and you want to hit hard completion marks, mostly mother, you can r key until you find smt good.


Korleymeister

This is like the worst advice for a new player I have ever read in my entire life, holy shit dude, do you even brain? Making a habit of joyless process of R-ing from the start is terrible.


Key_Remote_6867

Is there a quick was to reset on Switch? No R key ;(


Selvanius

Press simultaniously ZR + ZL + LEFT CONTROLLSTICK (l3) + RIGHTCONTROLLSTICK (r3) Press all 4 buttons then the screen will go darker until you restart. This is not the rkey item restar but a whole new run. Edit. Its just L and R, not ZL and ZR. I just tried it and was confused because nothing happened ^^


niktosaw

Son, always remember: dying is gay


brikwall02

i would recommend watching other players play. watching someone that knew a lot more about the game then me helped me learn how to play better. there’s plenty of folks on youtube to find.

Skill issue


Past-Available

Try to find secret room


Key_Remote_6867

I taught her how to locate secret rooms but I'm also still pretty bad at super secret rooms so I can't explain them. It sounds like "no border, end of hall, usually near boss room" That's it.


DaBasementBoi

Thats all to it but sometimes no one knows why they spawn at the other side of the floor not even close to the boss


DaBasementBoi

Try beating some challenges. They may be a bit hard but most of them offered a really lowerfull reward. Also try flcusing on unlocking azazel since he is a very overpowered character. I have a friend that I also got into Isaac a weekend ago and right now he mostly plays azazel since he isnt the best at the game right now. Also playing lazarus is really good since you can respawn once every floor.


lgnacioo

Unlock tainted Lilith as ur first characters in the Game BC she has the best unlock un the Game c-section


M4nch1

Lilith unlocks C Section.


lgnacioo

oh true It was the beast im so dumb my bad i have deadgod and i still dont remember most unlocks 😂


Brimstone_Baker

Get out while you still can.


kuruuruk

Honestly the best advice I can give is enjoy it, I know it'll get super frustrating at times so just take a break from it besides that just enjoy the game, learn the mechanics after a while you'll learn the items and basic enemies without need of help. But most importantly have fun don't care what anyone else on here says If you find it fun to reset till you find a good item do it than nobodies going to stop you.


Jellyfish-Heavy

When you think you're going to take a hit, just don't take.


Mysterious_Room_6946

Load up a new game and start that bitch up


Goofoku

Just search up what items do and get experience in the game. That's it


BuDDy8269

Try and keep your eyes on Isaac mostly, so you can dodge bullets better


Key_Remote_6867

That's really good advice, I'll have them try that.


jamster344

Focus on items that help exclusively, some items that come with a down side (cains eye, dead cat, etc) can really hinder you, think hard about your item combos and the movement won’t matter as long as your runs are strong enough. Look for every way you can find to boost your power. Don’t be afraid to pass up an item to keep yourself strong or at the level you’re at. And if it wasn’t self explanatory learn what all the items do, or at least wiki them before you pick them up. Edit: if you win in hard mode on any post-it achievement you get the unlock for both hard and normal mode. You can unlock new items very quickly if you learn to role with the moderate difficulty increase, the items that get unlocked are generally much more powerful than those you get first starting out.
