It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Megabyte Punch ($14.99, scores 65) and Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition ($19.99, scores 78) both outscore it.

I hate this game! controls are clunky. Half the time cutscenes are comic book style. the other is in engine. This is more of a puzzle game than a Arkham game. Also why call it Arkham blackgate? Arkham was one prison. Blackgate was the other one! hold on. I need to go to walmart target.
Weird getting used to playing this game in 2D coming from playing the other games that are in 3D, but the story is nice for what it is.
