• Tears snap 90 degrees to target enemies that they may have missed.

• The effect will not work if Isaac is too close to enemies.
• The effect will only work if the tear has a line of sight to the enemy: if it's interrupted by an obstacle, Brain Worm won't work even if Isaac has enough tear height to otherwise clear it unless he also possesses spectral tears.

• Anti-Gravity: Tears will snap to enemies after they're released, but not while the tears are staying in place.
• Brimstone / Montezuma's Revenge / Revelation / Technology / Technology 2: Laser will snap regardless of length from enemy. Also works with Azazel's Brimstone.
• Cricket's Body / The Parasite: Both the main and split tears are affected by Brain Worm.
• Dr. Fetus: No effect on bombs.
• Eye of the Occult: Tears briefly snap to target enemies but Isaac's control quickly takes over them.
• The Ludovico Technique: When the tear passes by an enemy, it will slightly nudge towards the enemy, similar to Eye of the Occult.
• Homing tears: Override Brain Worm.
• Mom's Knife: No effect.
• Tech X: No effect.
• Tractor Beam: No Effect.

• Brain Worm originates from the Antibirth mod.
• The name, appearance and effect of the trinket are likely inspired by the Brain enemy.
• The trinket might be a reference to Parelaphostrongylus tenuis, a real life brain worm commonly found in white-tailed deer. Worm Trinkets Trinkets
