A quick video of the rarest type of room in The Binding of Isaac.

The -ERROR- room can only be entered by using a teleporation effect; either the teleport item or certain Tarot cards can be used to enter here.

This is entirely based on luck, though: If you really want to enter this room... and there are benefits for doing so... you are best off grabbing the Teleport item, and using it every single time it recharges. With some luck... you'll find the ERROR room.

There are multiple types of ERROR rooms; the one in the video is.... actually the most boring. In this one there are just two free items. But sometimes you might get, say, a free item, a bunch of coins spread around the ERROR guy, and then some purchasable items like in a shop. I'd love to get a proper video of a more screwed up version of this room, I will try to do that later.

The guy in the middle there, both his look and the fact that he's saying -I AM ERROR- is a reference to The Legend of Zelda 2 on the NES. There was a house you could find in that game, which was very normal (and easy to find), and had this bearded NPC guy in it... but all he'd say is -I AM ERROR-. I have no idea why. It's a very well known thing in that game though, and it's cool to see ANOTHER retro-Zelda reference in Isaac.

Also, yeah, I know, lack of sound here, but there are no special sound effects or anything in the ERROR room.
