My birthday is coming in about 2 weeks (December 3rd) so, why not a celebration train? But first, you need to solve a puzzle.

This time the theme of the puzzle is a game that surprised me. I wasn't expecting much when I bought it a year ago, but I found myself addicted very soon. And it's no surprise that I'm currently addicted to the sequel.

I'm talking about Binding of Isaac series. I won't waste time explaining why those games are amazing. There's a lot of reviews out there that are far better in this matter.

The puzzle will be easier for the ones that already played one of the games. For the others, google is your friend.

Giveaways are from 0 to 3+ level and will end on my birth day, so take your time.

Go!

Hints:
Q1: His son is also called Isaac.
Q2: Uncommon red boy.
Q3: This monster punishes misbehaving children during Christmas.
Q4: The superhero holds a hammer.
Q5: Found on the Hebrew Bible.
Q6: Anarchy in papers.
Q7: Mentioned in "The Hound" and in "The Nameless City".
Q8: The book of one of the demons that possessed Emily Rose.
Q9: A board with letters and numbers.
Q10: Edmund McMillen's dead cat.

Most of the questions were rather easy for me as I play the game. However I can't solve Q3 and Q4, both my knowledge about the game and google didn't help me and I don't feel like bruteforcing. Can I get hints for those two?

EDIT: Bruteforced Q4, still can't solve Q3.

Q3 is probably the harder one, but you still can find the answer without too much effort. You just need to google the right words. And Q4... I tought everyone would guess it easily.

But anyway. I'll add hints later.

I googled a lot, went through the list of german folklore creatures on wikipedia and I still didn't find the answer. Guess I'll just have to bruteforce the shit out of that question.

Make a less specific search... I mean, don't use all the words I gave you. If you do it right, the answer will be on the first page google shows you.

I tried searching in many different ways, I couldn't get it to show up as first page as you said, nor could I find it via google at all. Google doesn't give the same results to everyone you know... Eventually I did manage to bruteforce it though

Well... I'm not a specialist on this matter, but the page I'm mentioning should be the most relevant result os a search with these keywords. But what really matters is that you solved it. Congrats :)

Oh, I really hope you didn't take my answer all too serious. While I really disliked the game I wrote this more as a joke. No intention to ruin your birthday. Sorry, pnkrckr!
Btw how would you pronounce your username?

No problem :)

I wouldn't try to pronounce it... It's just the expression "punk rocker" written together without the vowels. Had this (somewhat dumb) idea when I was younger and kept

I made it through!

For some reason number 9 was the troublesome one for me........I think I was stuck on the joke in my head of a wire hangar for a TV Antenna and couldn't reason through it.

Pre-Happy Birthday!
