Trivia

  • This item's effect, if the coin flip succeeds, is almost identical to Diplopia's.
  • Diplopia can be copied by this item.
  • Before Booster Pack #1, it could be used on empty item pedestals to cause another item to appear.
  • This item was originally suggested by Reddit User /u/CultOfTheHelixFossil in a fan item suggestion thread made by Edmund McMillen.
  • According to the original post, the name "crooked" refers to that the item "can't be fully trusted" and is meant to differentiate it from other coin items.
  • This item was inspired in part by the playstyle of Youtuber Northernlion, and his tendency toward Risk vs Reward items. Keeper Unlocks Delirium Unlocks The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
