The game format is fairly simple. It’s like a choose your own adventure book in video game format. The story mostly unfolds like a movie but often you get to choose what Batman/Bruce Wayne says and does. Additionally, the game uses quick time events during fight sequences and there are also times when you investigate things.
How does this work? First the bad:
1) all aspects of the game are really easy.
2) most decisions don’t have a significant impact on the outcome of the game
Now the good:
1) Telltale thrives on the strength of its storytelling. I feel immersed in a unique but authentic version of Gotham. It feels like I have control over a character in a really good graphic novel. The plot has kept me guessing and entertained. And the game has 5 episodes that each last over 1 hour.
2) even though the game is easy, the concept still works. Because you make decisions, you feel more invested in the characters.
Regarding crowd play. That is a feature where a group of people can vote on choices Batman makes using their phones. In hindsight, I don’t know how often a large group of people will get together to do this for hours. And although there are some glitches and technical issues, it’s still cool that you can turn the game portable on the Switch.
So would I buy it again? For me, with the Amazon pre-order discount and resale value, it is worth it. I also believe in supporting third party games on switch so more get made. But $40 straight up is a bit high. $20-$30 is probably more appropriate for this pretty fun Batman romp.
this game is good to play at least once. or multiple times if your the type of gamer to do that. Anyway i really hope this is not the last telltale game coming to the switch :( still waiting on walking dead, wolf among us, maybe game of thrones and maybe even new ones they come up with...if they are feeling generous with us switch people.....
Until TellTale releases a patch for the game that fixes the bug it's a hard pass. I'd also like to score it lower, but before all of this BS I was having a great time. If you beat it without dying you'll probably enjoy yourself too
