LEGO® Batman™: The Videogame

Batman has great potential in LEGO form, as evidenced by the absurd and hilarious LEGO Batman movie that came out quite some time after this game. However, this game is a fairly average and bland experience that adds nothing to the typical LEGO game formula. Danny Elfman's famous Batman theme on the title screen definitely gets you excited for some crime-fighting. But it only goes downhill from there. Like most LEGO games, the gameplay loop is smacking enemies, collecting studs, and assembling random pieces of floating debris into useful objects. Along the way, you will encounter multiple playable characters and suits to offer different abilities. For example, some objects can only be destroyed with explosives. Some abilities, like gliding or magnetic shoes, help you reach specific areas. Unfortunately, the potential is wasted on arbitrary puzzles that focus too much on co-op. These non-puzzles are usually of the "Let's pull these levers at the same time and see what happens" variety. This gives some utility for multiplayer, but makes single-player an absolute chore as you're at the mercy of the AI's help. It's especially frustrating in areas with respawning enemies. Gotham itself is surprisingly bland. The environments stray away from LEGO brick charm, but lack any real artistic flair that justify going for realism. Button mashing to work your way through enemies and random smashables gets old very fast. The game does not follow any existing source material plot, which should open the doors for some wild adventures. There is some humor and cuteness, but nothing worth playing through to experience. I could see the appeal to younger audiences, and it plays decently well on a controller. There just isn't anything here if you missed this. I recommend trying the second game which is far superior and a fun experience.

I've played LEGO Indiana Jones and Star Wars before, Clone Wars too. This one's rather short but therefore fun to jump in, play for a bit and go back to doing your stuff. Some of the tasks are a little dumb and some are hard to figure out. If you don't like wasting too much time, you might use a guide after trying for a while yourself. It's totally playable by yourself but sometimes your AI partner will get in your way but The game itself is really good. I recommend enjoying the story first and don't look around too much because you will need to re-do each level anyway. After you do story for both sides, do Arkham Asylum missions first, for the red bricks. Batman side missions don't give you game-changing upgrades, compared to villain side, so you'll thank yourself later.

Добавьте русский язык, пожалуйста (Add Russian language, please). Ставил игру с кривым руссификатором, хотел дать сыну поиграть, но с кривым руссификатором играть нет смысла, ничего не понятно, потому что руссификатор кривой. Соответственно, мы с сыном остались пока не играными в эту замечательную игру.

I remember when i was 10 and play this game with my brother. 10/10

I was trying for more than a day to play the game from Steam but it just didn't open (it was something about failed to create d3d device), I tried to do literally everything and nothing worked. Anyway, it was really worth the purchase in GOG 'cause only by opening the game it worked perfectly 🥹 (I'm so happy 'cause i really wanted to play Lego Batman after years)
