Description

Along with the story-driven single player campaign Arkham Asylum also contains quite a lot of additional play modes. These include an arcade styled combat mode where players accumulate points by engaging hordes of thugs in a hand to hand slugfest across a series of maps, in which Batman’s physical strength and agility play a major role. The key here is to chain together as many attacks as imaginable because of the truth that with each successful combo players increase the point multiplier associated with their actions. The game also features a time-based stealth mode where players should hone their ability to strike silently from the shadows. This gameplay, known as ‘Invisible Predator’ utilizes the Dark Knight’s skill with gadgets like the grapple tool, batarang and explosives. These allow for vertical/horizontal mobility, the ability to quickly strike from above and at a distance and to take out enemies and create distractions, even through walls. But understand that Batman works solo and is not superhuman. Your enemies will congregate around trouble areas and work as a team against you, so you should be silent, plan your attacks wisely, strike quickly and discover the value of encouraging fear within enemies.
