How the hell do you think this game is ok for kids?

Basically, it's also a game for kids, but the game also contains some gore - depends on how exaggerative you see the gore in the game, and there might be some sexual references as well - but I doubt that. Overall, I think it's a game for kids, but my opinion isn't expert enough to elaborate on the matter. Let's wait for someone who could elaborate better than me.

Want a really bad argument?
Kids probably already know far worse things than the ones in this game thanks to Internet. So easy to find.

Sweet memories...

Horrible argument I know. But actually, I'm pretty sure it's true. :P


...
Now just imagine:
Kid: "I would like to play Isaac!"
Parent: "Oh, what is it about?"
Kid: "A kid commiting suicide facing his inner demons. He cries onto feces, organs and demons. And dies, a lot. And it's fun."
Parent: "Wh... What the..."
Kid: "Don't worry, I know far worse things already!"
Parent: "OK THEN PLAY IT HAVE FUN"
(I'm not that sure for the last line.)

My kids watch me play it sometimes. I little boy just laughs at the poop sliding back and forth making farting noises. Young ones are not going to look into the actual details of the game. Older ones maybe but like others have said. A lot worse things out there in the world and the internet.

They're not my kids, but I showed the game to two of my cousins and we played all the through the fifth and sixth levels of the game and they actually find the game funny. They laughed their asses off when the Fatties (fat enemies who farts and pushes you backwards) are farting. So, maybe you'll even find the game laughable.
Two words: Mom's Pad.

There's some big boy humor in there, but I don't see why not.

Good games for kids are playgrounds, woods etc. actually it's not a kids game but on the other hand I'm prett sure most of them won't realise most things like womb, moms pad, bloods other kids etc.
Does Isaac have a restriction considering age of players ?

Rating Summary: This is a 2D action-adventure game in which players help a child, Isaac, escape from being violently harmed by his mother. From a top-down perspective, players traverse a basement dungeon filled with trapped children and fantastical enemies. Players solve various puzzles and battle the “cartoony” enemies by using weapons such as tear-drop projectiles. Some attacks are accompanied by blood-splatter effects, dismemberment, and decapitation; several dungeon rooms are littered with entrails and large blood pools. During the course of the game, rooms are depicted with excrement and urine; certain items allow players to defecate, urinate, or transform into excrement-themed characters (i.e., depicted as coiled droppings).
:steamhappy:

i mean as long as you know what you're getting into it should be fine right?

protip: your parents can't confiscate something from you if you buy it with your own money
(or if you hide it)

Yes you cannot access the store page if you are not old enough.

"Obsessively" and "excessively" are highly subjective words. ;-)
Even if you define those words precisely, hating someone because of what they enjoy doesn't sound right to me. :-/
