Game Description
Arkham Asylum. An island hospital holding Gotham's criminally insane. Home to some of the city's most notorious supervillians, including Harley Quinn, Victor Zsasz, and Killer Croc. Not exactly an island paradise - unless, of course, you're Batman. Follow the Caped Crusader into the mouth of madness in this quest to foil an evil plot hatched by the Joker.
