Manufacturer's Description -------------------------- The Dark Knight returns in the first game to do him justice in his more than 20 year history in video games. Not based on any specific comic book or movie it takes all the best ideas and visuals from all of Batman's many incarnations to create a unique spin on one of pop culture's greatest icons. Arkham Asylum becomes the backdrop for Batman's most dangerous challenge Killer Croc has never looked more imposing or been more dangerous Batman must discover the deadly secrets behind The Joker's masterplan Stalk the minor criminals like prey and strike from the dark when they least expect it The entire game takes place within Arkham Asylum, where The Joker and his allies have overtaken the facility and set a trap for Batman. This is no simplistic beat 'em-up though, with Batman forced to prove his status as the world's greatest detective with a number of complex forensic-style puzzles. When it does come to combat though you must still use your cunning as much as your fists, as you stalk unaware enemies and distract them with the bodies or screams of their cronies. With believable physics, superb graphics and a serious adult tone this is more than just another superhero tie-in.
