Story

Plot of Arkham Asylum for PC, X360 and PS3 does not refer directly to neither the movies nor the comic books, although it clearly draws inspiration from them. It is worth noting that the screenplay was written by Paul Dini, who is one of the authors of Batman: The Animated Series. Action of the game begins shortly after Batman once again manages to capture Joker and brings the villain to the eponymous mental institution. Shortly after the arrival Joker somehow escapes. Furthermore, it turns out that the whole thing was a part of his meticulous plan. By controlling Batman we must lead to the re-imprisonment of all escaped criminals. During the game we meet many other (other than the Joker himself) villains characteristic to this universe. These include Victor Zsasz, Killer Croc, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy.
