To download a 100% save file for "The Binding of Isaac: Repentance," you can follow these general steps. Note that the process might slightly vary depending on your platform (PC, Mac, etc.) and the source of the save file:
Disable Steam Cloud (Temporarily):
Steam Cloud will automatically sync save files. To prevent it from overwriting your new 100% file with your old, empty one:
- Right-click The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth in your Steam Library.
- Go to Properties > General.
- Toggle "Keep game saves in the Steam Cloud for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth" to OFF.
Step 1: Backup Your Existing Save (Crucial)
Do not overwrite your legitimate progress if you change your mind later.
- Navigate to:
C:\Users\[YourUserName]\Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance - Copy the entire folder to your desktop as a backup.
Part 1: What Does a "100% Save File" Actually Include?
Before downloading, it’s crucial to understand what you’re getting. A genuine Repentance 100% save file (often labeled "Dead God" or "3,000,000%") includes:
- All 34 Playable Characters: Including the notoriously difficult The Lost, The Keeper, Jacob & Esau, and Tainted versions of every character.
- All 720+ Items: Every passive, active, trinket, and consumable unlocked. No more "???" in your collection page.
- All Bosses & Paths: Unlocked access to Downpour, Dross, Mines, Ashpit, Mausoleum, Gehenna, The Corpse, and the final Home path including The Beast.
- All 20 Challenges Completed: Including the nightmare-inducing "Ultra Hard" challenge.
- All Achievements & Bestiary: Every enemy, boss, and checkpoint logged.
- All Endings & Completion Marks: Red, Hard Mode stamps on every character for every final boss (Mom, Mom's Heart, Isaac, Satan, The Lamb, ???, Mega Satan, Delirium, Mother, and The Beast).
Note on Multi-Save Slots: Repentance features three save slots. Most 100% files provide all three at 100%, though some only cover Slot 1.

If you’ve decided to proceed, follow this guide carefully. We assume you have The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth with the Repentance DLC installed on Steam.
The Cons
- Loss of Progression: The joy of Isaac is the "one more run" feeling. Skipping the grind removes the sense of earned discovery.
- Steam Achievement Lock: While the save file unlocks in-game progress, Steam achievements must usually be re-triggered or will not auto-pop unless you use specific workarounds.
- Risk of Malware: Downloading random save files from the internet can expose your PC to viruses.
