Secret room with no doors
I just found my first secret room in Afterbirth and apparently you can only go in and then you're screwed. There's a screenshot on my profile.

Can't even bomb back through the wall. Is there a way out?

Just to confirm, I also ran into this one, on the first floor, playing as Magdalene (and transformed upon death with Lazarus rags). I noticed the secret room on the left of the shop after ingesting an "I can see forever" pill. It was locked off behind some rocks (which is never the case with secret rooms - and I do believe this is the issue, since I didn't have the same issue when I found a secret room on one of my next runs by just randomly bombing the same place), but I got "lucky" by procuring The Nail in the devils room and proceeded to clear the way. Once inside, I noticed there were no doors. I tried bombing the secret doorway, but to no avail. I also found another "I can see forever" pill in the room. Sadly, it didn't work.

pretty sure all the greed secret rooms are sopposed to do that. like there has been going around alot of theorys on having to die in said secret rooms as all the possible characters. 'cause only some characters can find secret rooms, im more of a judas/cain player and cant say ive ever found one, with blue map or xray glasses.

I just updated my previous post. I'm pretty sure it's not intentional, unless the designers were ♥♥♥♥♥ up during this phase. Ofcourse there's some room for debate regarding wether certain "glitches" are intentional or not, but locking players up at random through no fault of their own doesn't really seem to belong in said category. Not for a game of this caliber, at least, I can see it happening in Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing though.

EDIT: Talking about bugs, I tried bombing that same site several times, with Magdalene. So far, there always seems to be a secret room for this character left to the shop. And the only time I got myself locked in, was when the entrance was blocked by rocks. I tried this because I read in another thread somebody always found the same secret room on a certain level with a certain character. The randomization for secret rooms appears to be broken in Greed mode.

i dont think its a bug, if you see the greed ending you will understand why i think its not a bug

Are you talking about the ones in Greed mode? Because there is a possibility that it isn't a bug.

Ive seen Secret rooms pop up in greed mode, via a I can see forever pill. Ive never gone in though. But I will say they dont show up in every Level of greed mode either, its pretty random

I suggest trying to blow up the wall to the left of the shop with Magdalene on the first level in Greed mode. So far, it has always given me the secret room.

EDIT: Well, nevermind me, tried again today, didn't work. Oh well.

They fixed both the location as well as the "getting stuck" thing of secret rooms in greed mode in the last patch.

Ah, thanks for the update, good to know!
