    This is the final episode of Telltale's Batman. And it's awesome. You finally understand a lot of things.

    I can't quite go so far as to say City of Light is good enough on its own to make the entire series worth playing. For a devoted Batman or Telltale fan, you're probably way ahead of me. For others, there is a redemptive quality to this finale, enough to make me glad I played all the way through to the end.

    City of Light offered a decent closure to Vicki’s short reign of terror as Lady Arkham. Overall, even with its missteps, Telltale still created an entertaining Batman series with fantastic character development.

    Sometimes inconsistent, other times explosive, Telltale has managed to create a Batman who is more than just the sum of his fists and gadgets. A Batman for the 21st century, whose personal pain not only motivates him but also guides as this final episode of this series reaches a satisfying conclusion.

    Telltale's debut with the Dark Knight wraps up with an episode that leaves me with an odd mix of disappointment and hope.

    Batman's final Telltale outing — well, for this season, anyway — is a mostly-satisfying conclusion to a fascinating, dark and unusual take on Gotham. It doesn't quite fulfill all the narrative promise of its intriguing themes, but it does wrap things up in an effective enough way.
