    Okay, so technical issues aside Batman – The Telltale Series is worth checking out. If you happen to live inside the Venn diagram of people who enjoyed Rocksteady’s Arkham series and like to play Telltale-style adventure games, then it’s a must. Or, if you’re simply a fan of the comic book series.

    A few action-related missteps don't stop this being a decent first season. [Feb 2017, p.86]

    Batman: The Telltale Series is not very new in gameplay. The love for the franchise is there, the authentic story feels real, but the game does not offer enough action or surprises.

    In the end Batman feels like a rough start, and if I wasn’t such a fan of the characters, I am not sure I would come back for more. However, being such a huge fan I find myself wanting to see where it goes, warts and all, which is something Telltale seriously needs to address. This engine has been chugging along far too long, and instead of acquiring new licenses for properties, it might be time to take a break and build a new engine, one that can handle these grand narratives they are trying to build.

    Batman: The Telltale Series gives the bitter and the sweet. On one hand, it’s nice to see the story of Gotham’s villains from another point of view, and know Batman’s human side is inspiring too. On the other hand, it’s incomprehensible how Telltale still brings us a game with a second rate Spanish translation, a shabby technical section or some increasingly petty and easy quick time events.

    An interesting new environment for the storytelling of Batman with the classic Telltale's style but the result is too bad.

    I'm not a batman fan, however this game is a sick cinematic experience and was a blast to play.

    A decent Telltale game. The story is appealing and engaging. I would recommend playing between big titles.
