Are secret room items tied to an unlock?

[Dante Deviler]

I’ve been playing the game for around 140 hours, and I have never seen a single item spawn in them. I’m starting to think their tied to an unlock OR, I am being stupid and they can only spawn from sources like present. Please let me know if their tied to and unlock or I just have memory issues :/

no unlock requirement, they are just very uncommon

Especially "fun" is when they spawn but in a way that you can't actually get to them.

That's where Soul of Eden / The Gift / The Lovers? / Magic Skin come in handy.

Annoying/Cumbersome = LOL FUNNY!

I don't know what to say. I saw Chaos in one just now during the daily run (and all it did was prevent me from getting a planetarium item at the 11th hour), and I've seen that "two keepers with an item between them guarded by your choice of spikes or a lock" room several times since I started playing again a few weeks ago. As far as I know, room layouts in general aren't locked--although that's not true since I just remembered that upgrades to shops are greed mode unlocks. That's hardly the same thing, though. If secret room layouts are as well, I don't think it's explicitly stated anywhere, and I doubt if it's the case that they are.

Maybe if you're playing in hard mode only, perhaps those with-item layouts are low difficulty and therefore are just so rare you haven't seen one, but that's a wild guess and probably not the case. Incidentally, I see room layouts all the time during daily runs that I swear I've never seen before in normal games, but I doubt that has anything to do with anything.

Daily runs treat everything as unlocked to even the playing field, so there's that.
