Mechanics

What Candy Heart does

  • Spawns a red heart on pickup.
  • When red-heart pickups restore health, they also grant random lasting stat increases; direct healing from an active item does not trigger this effect.

Practical note

Pick up red hearts when you have room to heal, rather than leaving all of your red containers full.
