A solid sequel that never gets boring but which sometimes has questionable dialogue choices.

The first game in the series felt a tad too conventional and the story dragged on a little at times. This second game is much better in that regard. New things happen all the time and the plot takes unexpected twists and turns to stay interesting. Despite guessing very quickly who the climax will be about, the progressive development of the main villain and the work on the secondary characters is excellent. Being friend or foe is a fine line. The action scenes are not the core of the game but are still very well implemented and feature alternative ways of taking down opponents.

I felt that when you fail, the game sometimes takes you quite far back. Some dialogue choices (and one in particular) felt strange but what bothered me the most is the very end and the choice you have to make.

I think this game is one of the best games of Telltale, very interesting take on Batman and Joker’s relationship.

I agree but Joker only has “friends” when they make him feel good about himself. Everything is self-centered about him.

Upvoted the review, thanks. I’m just not into Batman / superheroes so I skipped this one.

Thanks. Superheroes are not really my thing either but I still like how badass Batman is.
