  • Summary: A stampede of notorious criminals have busted out of Arkham Asylum, where Gotham City houses only the shadiest of characters. It's up to the famed Caped Crusader to sweep Gotham clean of criminal activity using everything at his disposal, including crime-fighting vehicles as well as several baddie-bashing bat gadgets.

    A thoroughly entertaining game that has a wide appeal for young and old. The low level of violence and simplicity of challenge makes it easy to play. A good solid family game that we highly recommend.

    It wasn't a bad game, just too much too soon. I hope that Lucasarts and Travellers Tales learn their lesson from this mistake and wait a while for the next LEGO release.

    All in all, the game handles pretty well. There are a few bumps in the road as combat is shallow, the challenge level is low, and the amusing cut scenes fail to make the DS version.

    I absolutely love this game. I played all the Lego Star Wars and Lego Indiana Jones and this is by far the best one yet. My boyfriend introduced me to the lego series and I have love it ever since. The graphics in this version has improved and the mobility of the characters have been perfected. I like how they kept the comic theme in each level and the outline of the game is just so much fun. Alot of things to do and accomplish. I recommend this anyone, esp. girls like me who don't always like to play war/fighting games!… Expand

    It's not terrible DS game, but very entertaining. Despite the idiotic AI and control schemes, the extra swag will actually entice you to play more. Not the best lego game i've played, but its at least funny and solid.… Expand

    Consider this game like a Batman skin for the previous Lego games. Too similar and without a decent level design (it's stupid to press a button to release a Lego kit to build another button to be able to press another button etc). If you already have a Lego Star wars or Lego Indiana Jones forget this one. If you don't, try these ones rather than Lego Batman.… Expand
