Apparently, most of his family were hardcore religious to an almost stereotypical degree the classic 'Dungeons and Dragons is bad, Magic the Gathering (a hobby he's very fond of) is bad blah blah blah you're going to go to Hell if you continue those hobbies blah blah blah' kind of way. McMillen has said several times that a lot of the religious aspects of the game and the fact that not all of them are put in a positive light is based on experiences he and people he knew had when they were younger. There are a lot of small symbolic things in the game that each have their own implications such as the 'Wire Coat Hanger' item and the many items that reference child abuse. The person behind the Binding of Isaac, Edmund McMillen, has mentioned several times that the game DOES have a deeper meaning, but that he isn't going to spoil what that meaning is because he wants his fans to offer up their own interpretations. This is supported by the menu screen and cutscenes that look like children's drawings, Isaac drew them.Īnd the game doesn't end when you kill the mother. this theory is also supported by the creepy ass jesus loves you song that ends the origanal game (not rebirth)after you beat it enough times Pretty much this, it all appears in Isaac's imagination. every single character in the orignal binding of issac game(not rebirth) is CONFIRMED to be issac.the whole mother thing is because the game takes place inside a chest,inside issacs imagination.IT LIVES is also confimered to be issac in the womb.after you kill yourself in the womb,you kill yourself in the cathedral (issac boss),then you kill yourself in the chest(? boss),while also killing your self IRL in the game world by suffocating yourself in the chest.blue baby is issac's body,the lost is issacs soul.this is supported by the dark room victory ending and the chest victory ending cinimatic. Why did he have to go all the way down the basement to find his mother, he could of killed in the first place? By thinking about all the things I mentioned above, it seems there is some sort of inner demons involved, but I still can't figure out why after he has defeated all of the demons which are the monsters, why he still has to fight his mother? Even if she wanted to kill him because of the sin, why does she appear in the basement and Isaac has to defeat her in order to beat the game? It doesn't make sense. The fact that there are nooses and plenty of corpse looking creatures that don't do anything sort of makes me feel think the same way.

My theory is, that he became stronger after defeating all the inner demons along the way and he became strong enough, to go back and stand up against his mother. That's something I am thinking about as well.

I don't think that the game's story is supposed to be super deep or anything, it's just a fun game with a very ambiguous story tied to it.

Like his religious mother thinks he's full of sin and he feels guilty about it, or something like that. Originally posted by Jackayl:I guess the idea is basically that Isaac is fighting his inner demons.
