Players can take command of iconic Super-Villains such as The Riddler, Harley Quinn and Killer Croc as they fight their way to the top by building their ultimate hideout, recruiting and training an army of henchmen, and battling through intense story-missions within Gotham City’s neighborhoods. As if the stakes weren’t already high enough, if one’s empire becomes too big, they might even have to defend their turf by facing off against Batman himself to secure their status as a ruthless crime lord.

    Batman: Arkham Underworld is an interesting attempt at the RTS genre, packed with several well-known villains to unlock and lots of missions.

    There’s no denying that Batman: Arkham Underworld was created in order to capitalize on the popularity of Rocksteady’s Arkham franchise, but whether the familiarity of the Arkhamverse is enough to give the game any real sense of staying power is something only time will tell. In the meantime, whether or not you enjoy Arkham Underworld depends entirely on your opinion of mobile microtransaction-driven games in general.

    Is that going to drag in the legions of Bat-fans? No idea, but if you’re looking for a strategy management game that does things slightly differently, and slightly darker, then it’s well worth a look.

Villains are cool, however there should be more control on the thugs and some types of teams or alliances to keep players busy Expand
