If you think that Bible is boring, then you are definitely wrong. There are a lot of wise words and parables, and you can learn many good and useful things of them. It is no wonder that people use Biblical plots in poetry and prose, give names to characters in order to give a hint about their stories and possible final scene. Various plots become the basics for different online and flash games that either copy the original scenario, or, what is more common, make some profound changes. The arcade Binding of Isaac deals with the original Biblical plot that received a new life. It was released on 2011, but it is still popular among those, who love this genre. It deals with a great amount of topics that include cruel treatment of children, killing kids, suicide, abortion and religion – in a word, all those things that usual games tend to avoid.

The boy is drawing the pictures and playing with toys, while his mother is watching Christian programs on TV. She hears the voice from the sky, which tells her that her son is sinner, but he can be saved. This voice asks to take away all evil from her son, and mother agrees. The woman becomes cruel to her son, and takes away everything that was dear to him. Then she locks Isaac inside his room, but the voice isn’t satisfied with this. It encourages her by saying that she is doing everything but, but she should eventually kill her son. She believes that God is talking to her, so she takes the big knife, and goes to her son’s room.
