Anarchist Cookbook is an activated item.

Effect

  • Spawns six Troll Bomb.pngTroll Bombs, usually near the center of the room.
  • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance) This item belongs to the BookwormBookworm set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into Bookworm.

Notes

  • This item can drop from Pride.pngPride.
  • Although visually unchanged, all passive Bomb.pngBomb effect items affect the spawned Troll Bombs unless otherwise noted.
  • The Troll Bombs created by Anarchist Cookbook spawn in one at a time; if Isaac leaves the room soon after using it, not all 6 Troll Bombs will spawn.
  • Using this item without any blast protection is not always recommended as it is very easy to be caught in the blast.

Synergies

  • Collectible Pyromaniac icon.pngPyromaniac: Spawned bombs can be used for mass healing.

Interactions
