Notes

  • Unless an item effect specifically states it, a red heart always has the chance to be replaced by a Soul, Black, or Eternal heart.
  • Red heart pickups created by item, card, or pill effects can be forced to be spawned as Black or Eternal hearts instead by using the item, card, or pill in a relevant Super Secret Room.
  • If Isaac's health bar is filled with soul hearts, picking up a black heart will replace the topmost soul heart.
    • If Isaac's health bar is filled up to 11 1/2 (Soul/Black) hearts with the last one being half a Black Heart, picking up a Black Heart will fill that one and convert a full Soul Heart to a Black Heart (therefore adding half a Black Heart and converting a Soul Heart).
    • If Isaac's topmost heart is a half Soul Heart, collecting a Black Heart will complete it into a whole soul heart, and add half a Black heart.
    • Collecting a Soul Heart with half a Black Heart left will complete the Black Heart, and add half a Soul Heart.

Trivia

  • There are unused graphics for Half Soul Hearts and Half Black Hearts that are never seen ingame.
    • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance) Half Soul Hearts were eventually added to the game as an unlockable in Afterbirth+.
  • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance) Booster Pack #5 made Scared Hearts beat faster, making them slightly easier to spot. This was from this Steam Workshop mod by piber20.
  • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance) Gold Hearts' appearance was changed in Booster Pack #5.
