I believe that what does not kill you makes you … Strange!

Joker, K/f "Dark Knight"

Gotham City-a dark spot on the map of the east coast of the United States. Gloomy, God's cursed metropolis hides many secrets. In the afternoon, he is not remarkable, almost like Washington, but at night … Gotham turns into earthly hell at night. Under the cover of darkness, thousands of criminals go to fishing, random passers -by become victims (and if you are lucky – only witnesses) of murders, rape and robberies. Prostitutes stand on every corner, drugs are sold on each street.

The mafia and corruption put Gotham on the knees. Hundreds of officials went over to the camp of those who were promised to destroy in their fiery speeches. And those who, faithfully served the city, ended like Harvey Dent, now known as two -faced. Everyone is refueling money and fear, they have long forgotten about the law ..

But on the Gotham map there was its own spot that darker is darker. The psychiatric hospital Arkham, where only the worst of the worst fall; Those who cannot restrain the thirst for murder; Those who are not able to overcome their manic inclinations.

Despite the fact that the clinic is in the city, it is located on a separate island. Amadeus Arkham founded her on the site of his own mansion in memory of his mother Elizabeth. She was insane and, unable to withstand the torment, committed suicide.

Once in the office of Amadeus a telephone rang. The policeman in alarmed voice announced the terrible news: a serial killer fled from the hospital, nicknamed a frantic dog. He could well wish the doctor’s death and try to harm any of his loved ones.

Amadeus abandoned all the things and immediately went home, but it was too late: on the floor lay the mutilated corpses of his wife and daughter. Soon the killer was caught, and Arkham insisted on treating him on his own. Within six months, he did everything that he could, but an accident occurred for a frantic dog, and the maniac died from a shock blow. Although there was no Ammadeus’s fault, he took everything to himself and soon went crazy. Ironically, he was old and died in the place that he created to help others.

Batman did not like Arkham. And not because most patients got there by his mercy. There was just something sinister in this place, repulsive. And now he was going there at great speed, accompanied by Joker chained in handcuffs. Night, rain, dank wind – everything is as usual, but the smell of danger hung in the air, and so far only the clown is only the very good mood of the clown. Why should he rejoice? After a couple of minutes, he will be in the hospital, under the supervision of dozens of guards and doctors, and he has fun and sarcasten.

They were already waiting for them in Arkham. Batman accompanied his satellite almost to the camera, but he was not given to go inside the center of intensive therapy. A faithful friend, commissar Gordon, tried to intercede, but did not work out, and two guards took the Joker. Everyone had a bad foreboding. Everyone, except for a couple of guards who, after a minute, lay on the floor ..

… the clown hit the steady. While Batman was thinking that Joker gave up too easily, that it was not for nothing that prisoners from a recent burned prison were transported to the clinic, he cut down the escort and disappeared. Somehow, a psycho planned everything in advance, and now he and his team of rare scumbags have taken control of the Arkham.

Welcome to a madhouse

Hundreds of robbers, killers and maniacs were free, and they were led by the only goal: revenge. Avenge the city that made them step on a slippery path; take revenge on the government, which sent them to rot in jail; Avenge Batman – the reason for their troubles.

The change of power was not without casualties, and after a couple of hours there was practically no living guard in the psychiatric hospital. Someone was scored with reinforcement, someone was poisoned with gas, and those who were “lucky” were shot.

Some cops and doctors managed to hide, but they literally arranged herbs on them. In search of the fugitives, the thugs of the Joker combed the building behind the building, the room behind the room, and if someone was found, they cruelly killed. Not because they ordered, but just for the sake of pleasure.

Arkham turned into a reserve of fear, according to the corridors of which the crazy roams roam and painfully giggled. Over the years spent in the hospital, no one was able to help them, and psychos became similar to driven animals.

The island plunged into the darkness, and a strange green glow made it even more sinister. Even the inveterate scum that plays their victims upside down on the trees, and they are afraid to go into an abandoned harbor or in the cemetery, where dozens of patients of the hospital and its founder are buried and its founder. It’s not that someone was afraid of the ghosts, just wander around the night cemetery, surrounded by clumsy crosses and under the close observation of dark angels, not too nice even a fierce killer.

The territory of Arkham is patrolled by dozens of scumbags. The majority are knocked down in heaps of ten to fifteen people and have fun discussing the latest news, such as the abduction of the senior overseer and commissar Gordon or the massacre of the guards. Each of the thugs in the hands of a bit or a piece of the pipe, and some are so strong that they prefer their weapons fists. There are, of course, those who like knives and stemociers, but such a minority.

Cooling this rabble will not be difficult for an expert on martial arts. Batman hits spectacularly and effectively, makes the steps, breaks his arms and legs, makes throws and rapidly hesitates from one enemy to another. It is best for him, no doubt, the counterattacks succeed, during which all the skill accumulated over many years of training is manifested. However, Batman tries not to kill anyone, preferring to send enemies to long knockout.

Being a good strategist, the Joker placed a sniper on each tower, and put the most dangerous and armed to the teeth of prisoners on particularly important objects. They are constantly talking and keep in front of each other, so that in case of danger, the partners manage to help.

Invisible predator

But this will not save them from fair retaliation. Batman emerges from the darkness to disappear in a couple of seconds, but during this time he manages to cleanly remove one of the opponents. No one knows where he will appear at the next moment. Maybe he will carefully get out of the ventilation shaft, quietly sneak up from the back and applies a suffocating capture? Or maybe he will cut down the famous Betarang? Or collapse from heaven and dumps a powerful kick?

However, this is far from all that the dark knight is capable of, and Joker assistants are well aware. They are already used to finding their partners hung upside down on the stone sculptures. They got used to the idea that the glass roof is unreliable, and the floor could always leave under the feet. Even sudden explosions became a normal phenomenon: here the guard calmly goes through the parapet, and after a couple of seconds, the comrades are already digging it out of a pile of debris and are trying in vain to bring it to life.

Fraud could not accept only one thing: a sense of fear. They react violently to every loss, the pulse quickens, and the nerves slowly begin to take. Out of fear, the former prisoners go into groups of two, look around all the time, often change the dislocation and shoot, hearing a sharp sound. That the predator should catch the victim weakened by fear?

But how he succeeds? Neither intelligence, nor skill remain in the shadow, nor even high technologies are able to make a person absolutely invisible or protect him from missing, which can cost him life. Well, Batman is always known as a great detective, and the sensor invented by him allows you to see through the walls and gives out extensive information about enemy. The enemy is unarmed? It is blown in blue. On the contrary, armed? Then red. The ingenious device shows even the number of enemies in the district, measures their pulse and captures the slightest changes in their mood.

In addition to tactically important information, Batman helps to win these strategic ones, which he regularly receives from his assistant, nicknamed Oracle. She constantly gets in touch with him and reports that and where is the case at the moment, which place is better to bypass, and where, on the contrary, it is better to run from all legs. Well, or fly if there is an opportunity.

The notorious Edward Nigma, aka Riddler, also keeps in touch. A lover of hoax and logical tasks scattered more than two hundred surprises through the territory of Arkham, which are not so easy to find. But in order to try Batman for truly and check how smart he is, Riddler makes a riddle (or even several at once) in each room visits a dark knight. And what about the reward for work? The opportunity to study the history of Arkham and find out everything about the most outstanding inhabitants of the hospital.

This is important: Some finds, such as green interrogative signs, open access to entertaining images, and also give the right to fight with prisoners in one of the many rents.

Circus of one clown

The most famous patient does not need a presentation. Having taken control of the Arkham and interrupting most of the staff, the Joker joking tirelessly, pushes long speeches and in every possible way pulls time, realizing his devilish plan to destroy Gotham.

This ingenious psychopath does not cease to amaze with its insidiousness, intelligence, mercilessness and cunning. He easily lures Batman all into new traps, very competently arranging the nets, because someone does not how to know the weaknesses of his eared enemy to the Joker. Either he rivets two guards to the bomb, then he hells a couple of scientists over the abyss, and even lets his favorite poisonous green gas into the intensive care unit.

In special cases, the clown prefers to use others to get rid of an annoying Batman. He sends him his right hand and mistress to intercept him, the sexy blonde Harley Quinn, but when she suffers a defeat, he does not even try to help her.

It is the Joker who frees the serial killer of Victor Zazz, the monstrous killer of Krok, the strongman nicknamed Bich, the wizard of intimidation scared and charming red -haired beastless ivy ivy. And although the good half of this company itself would gladly dug a stinging clown, they all first pounced on Batman.

Some appear only for a couple of minutes, then to rest for a day, others offer their company for a long time. Krok killer hunts Batman in the sewer, and the poisonous ivy, sitting in the botanical garden, floods the whole island with huge trees and carnivorous flowers.

But most of all Batman gets from the scarecrow, which he in vain dropped from the accounts. The biochemist three times poisons a dark knight with hallucinogenic gas, implementing his worst nightmares into reality. Then he gets into the morgue where his half -exhausted parents appear from the bags for corpses, it turns out in a long corridor, at the end of which the same gateway in which his mother and dad shot the robber. Visions are so real that the frost is making his way.

Psychiatric hospital as she is

A special, unique style in which grotesque, realism and gloomy beauty was mixed in this is not the last role. Everything that you see on the screen involuntarily begin to believe: the buildings are very beautiful and stylish, and the cemetery seems so real that it is very difficult to decide for a walk between the graves. Great landscapes and high -quality special effects only add impressions. And what is the moon here!..

Batman: Arkham asylum did not in vain please in the "Guinness Book of Records". This is not only the best game about the hero of the comics, but also one of the best games over the past few years. To praise the psychiatric hospital Arkham and its inhabitants can truly endlessly, and how not to do it? Imagine, even Batman's face and his costume change throughout the game, abrasions and cuts become visible, and the cloak turns into a long -term floor rag!

Verdict: Who would have thought that Batman's adventures in a psychiatric clinic will be almost a masterpiece? Batman: Arkham asylum is one of the best creations of our time, and not only in its genre. It seems that we have a bright contender for the title of "Game of the Year".

Characters

Even in the best and most unusual action movie you rarely meet more than two or three memorable characters.

However, no one knows the truth: no matter who Joker is before, he carefully hides his past.

Green hair, white makeup and a shabby lilac suit should not be misleading, because before you is an uncorgected prince of the criminal world. He is merciless and extremely dangerous, he is calculated, cold -blooded and sophisticated. The main weapon of Joker is his intellect, and this is what makes him the worst opponent of Batman.

By nature, Joker is a killer, but the killer is brilliant and, let me put it like that, with a murderous sense of humor. Any, even the most deadly weapon, he is able to disguise something cheerful, clown. A bomb in a gift package or a plain button in the palm of your hand, which in fact turns out to be a powerful electric shock, is quite mundane for Joker items.

He is extremely unpredictable and goes to any sacrifice in order to achieve the goal, so that even the most faithful associates hold the ear with him, because a wide frightening smile can turn into an evil grin in an instant that does not portend anything good.

But the girl disobeyed and without thinking twice decided to become an assistant to Batman. She went through serious physical training, studied many martial arts and perfectly mastered computer technology. Naturally, the costume of a bat fell for her.

For many years, Batgers fought with Gotham's criminal world to shoulder with her mentor and idol, but once an accident occurred: the Joker shot the girl with a spine, and her legs were taken away. However, even chained to a wheelchair, she continued to help Batman, however, in a different role.

All these years, the photographic memory, skill of the hacker, the brilliant possession of modern technologies and a wide horizons remained idle. After that fatal shot, they turned Barbara into an oracle, and now it helps Batman with information. She is able to find out anything and about anything in a matter of seconds, and this, you see, is extremely valuable.

Riddles

In addition to a dozen main characters, there is one more, which, like the oracle, is associated with Batman exclusively on the radio. In ordinary life, he is known as Edward Nigma, in the criminal world everyone is used to calling him Riddler. Apparently, he was also in Arkham during the Joker revolution, but decided to stay away from the conflict.

Instead of placing nets and carefully preparing traps, Riddler scattered various puzzles throughout the hospital. As a reward for their solution, the game menu open cards for the competitive regime, biography of characters, interviews with them, as well as images of the main (and not very) heroes.

This is important: Before looking for secrets, find a map to start, on which all important places are displayed. True, even with her it is difficult to find half of the hiding places, but she at least tells where to look. And one more thing: do not try to get to half of the secrets until Batman has all his arsenal at the disposal of Batman.

So what did Riddler prepare us?

• Green interrogative signs. The most common secrets in the game, they are at each level in large quantities. Can be anywhere, for example, underground or under the ceiling. Often lie in a prominent place, although periodically hidden in ventilation shafts and behind the destroyed walls.
• Monuments of the spirit of Arkham. These are small statues covered with strange letters, in the middle of which a spider is depicted. The decoding showed that they keep the story of Amadeus Arkham, his family and the hospital created by him. The most difficult thing in finding the monuments is that they are often in a prominent place and fit into the environment so harmoniously that you do not pay attention to them.
• Audio recordings. Films with an interview with the most famous patients of Arkham (and part -time – the main enemies of Batman) – the easiest prey. They mainly lie on the tables in the offices of doctors and security, and, pleasant, flicker, so that this secret will not be difficult even in absolute darkness.
• Jaws of Joker. This is not even a secret, but a little entertainment. Master Clownades, Joker loves everything funny and cheerful, even if it seems like him only. That is why he scattered clockwork jaws throughout the hospital. Not only do they constantly jump on the floor, but they also make nasty sounds all the time, which made Ridder so much that he offered Batman a reward for every five, ten and twenty broken toys. It will not work out to trample them, but knocking it with a beatarang – it is it.
• Riddles. Nigma in stock always has a couple of puzzles. And for Batman, he prepared almost fifty. As soon as the Dark Knight gets to the next level, Riddler asks a question, which at first may seem like crazy crazy. For example, he can say: “My mystery is for those who lead the right lifestyle” or “Victor Zazz wants you to find his creation”. And go guess that the last phrase implies a room in which three corpses of guards seem to be sitting behind a poker.

In fact, in order to find the answer, you need remarkable attentiveness and ingenuity. For example, if in a detective mode you see a large question sign drawn on the floor, then on the nearest elevation it is worth looking for a point. Take a look at them so that a whole picture is obtained, and – Voila! – The mystery is decided.

Another nuance is the small dimensions of some "unraveling". If the card indicates that the solution is somewhere in this room, and there is only an awkward statue with a shabby sign, well, increase the image (Z button) and look at this sign in a new way. It is likely that you will find there some interesting inscription.

And the last moment: the answers to some riddles are outside Arkham. Of course, you can’t get to Gotham, but take advantage of the increase. And there there is a solution on some building.

Gladiator battles

As mentioned above, Batman's main opponents are the same people like himself. They are just as woven from flesh and blood and, like any person, can die from a strong blow to the head, a solar plexus or neck. As such battles with bosses in Batman: Arkham Asylum. Notice, practically : Now we will talk about exceptions from the rules.

• Scourge. Pumped up with a drug, he grows in breadth and upside down. A two -meter pumped kid can easily break a backman back. But we will not allow this, right? To defeat the scourge, you need to cut three ligaments of the tubes with Venom on his neck. This can only be done when he does not think where he is and what he is doing. In other words, first you need to beat it well. This is not so easy to do because of its size and strength, but there is one trick: when the scourge runs at you with a wild scream, throw Betrang to his head and jump aside. The weapon will fall into the eyes, and the enemy will crash into the wall at full speed.
• Poisonous ivy. This lady in itself is a real angel. Beautiful, sweet and fragile. Naturally, she will not fight with her bare hands. Oh no, Dr. Aili will climb inside a giant plant that will shoot at Batman with some strange clots and periodically beat on the ground (trees that entangle the main character instantly grow at the site of the blow). It is impossible to destroy the flower, but to show who is the owner in the house is quite: every time I will laugh and sarcastically, the cocoon in which it sits is revealed. In critical conditions, you can’t get out to such a height, but you can start the Betarang girl.
• Joker. By introducing a Titan drug for himself, the clown in a lilac suit turned into a huge monster with a horsemen and long claws. In a new appearance, he surpasses Batman in almost everything, so that he calmly climbs into a fight. However, very soon it gets bored with him, and the Joker climbs up, where he poses for cameras of journalists who flew to Arkham. While the green -haired psychopath has fun and shouts nasty things, former prisoners attack Batman. They climb like cockroaches during a fire, that is, from all sides and almost non -stop. Plus, small clockwork devils jump on this floor – bombs with an hourly mechanism.

You can do anything with enemies: throw it into each other, pushing to explosive toys, drive into electric grilles. The main thing is to guess the moment when the Joker turns to the arena with his back and begins to wave into the camera. Quickly take out the ultrabatcoat and shoot him in the back. The clown, like a cat, falls on its paws and stucks with claws in the boards, becoming defenseless. Hold on to three halves, and the villain all Gotham City will fall.

Arsenal

Batman has no extraordinary abilities. He does not know how to let the web, climb the walls, change the appearance, shoot a laser from his eyes. He does not have an ultra -strength skeleton or inhuman force. The replacement of all this is the experience in martial arts, intelligence, the ability to stay in the shade and expensive high -tech devices, which we will talk about now.

Betarang

For some reason, a boomerang in the form of a bat never returns, but this does not make it less dangerous. With the help of this sharpened heavy toy, Batman can easily send the enemy to a knockdown or knock out a weapon out of his hands without finding himself.

If you acquire an appropriate improvement, enemies will come to their senses after an accurate hit. But it is best, perhaps, to have two, or even three Betarans at once,. Having such an advantage in hand, you can lay a small detachment of the Joker in a matter of seconds, and then finally finish off each.

You can’t imagine special tactics with this weapon, but there is one rather simple and at the same time effective: if prisoners with pipes and bats are waiting for you around the corner, and several people with electric shockers, knives or rifles were closed in their company, Bataralgi's targets in their heads. The rest, of course, will immediately run to beat the Dark Knight, but there will be no problems with them – certainly not after the most dangerous opponents were flying.

Sound Batrang

This miracle of technology can be purchased for experience points. Why Batman Sound Boomerang? It is programmed so that he sends sound waves in a small radius from his location. All guards who are nearby are taken to look for Batman or at least a source of noise.

All in the best traditions of the “thief” and “commando”: periodically the dark knight needs to quietly and carefully penetrate some room or ventilation shaft. And there are enemies around, and all are armed. You can kill them all, but you need to spend time on this. So it is easier to distract them for a while, and to smile imperceptibly behind their backs.

Another option for using sound bearand is to switch attention. For example, a couple of prisoners kept together all the time, because both are very scared. It is extremely dangerous to climb into two armed scumbags, but if the boomerang is correctly launched, one will go to the sound, and the second will remain to cover the back. This is where you can strike a sudden blow.

Well, the best use of this device is the enemy’s cutting. The fact is that all the escaped prisoners wear prison collars, which used to beat them with current for disobedience, and now they serve as a frightening accessory. But not for the eared hero. Batman can buy a certain improvement, and the sound beast will be re -loaded by the collar of the nearest enemy. At the same time, the latter is so hard to shout that it will almost kill.

Controlled Betarang

In the same way as the previous "toy" is acquired for experience points. At first glance, the purchase is completely pointless: what is the use of managing a Betarang yourself, if you can take a couple of usual and cut down a few enemies at the moment?

In fact, the device is very useful in the case when you instantly need to lay four or more opponents or hit them selectively. You are free to twist the boomerang as you want, until it crashes into the wall or into the floor. And for the allotted time, it is quite possible to send six-seven prisoners to the knockdown.

However, the entire hidden potential of a controlled bearang is revealed during the search for secrets and answers to Riddler's riddles. Some of them are so well hidden that you can't see. For example, on the map there is a place where it seems impossible to get. But, having launched Betarang, you can find a hidden passage or find out where the coveted cache is located: perhaps everything is much easier than it seemed, and you do not need to puzzle your head in vain.

Explosive gel

Some walls cannot be circumvented, and there is only one way to get to the goal: go through them. How? One of the options is an explosive gel that Batman made in his cave. It is located in a small cylinder and is applied to any surface, leaving the latter a single chance. Moreover, the defender of Gotham cannot do with a banal “cake” – he carefully displays the image of a bat on the object.

The explosive gel reveals truly unlimited tactical possibilities, especially when buying such important improvements as selective explosions and reaction to approaching enemies.

If an enemy turned out to be next to the shaft with a shaft or on a feeble ceiling, it is worth reminding him that do not forget about safety precautions. Having guessed the moment, arrange an explosion and roll the stones on his head. At the same time, it is advisable to move away from the "avalanche", otherwise it may hurt. It is very important to plan a departure plan in advance or activate the explosive, hiding under the ceiling: the guards run away to the noise in the blink of an eye.

When the prisoner is watching under a glass canopy, it's time to collapse on his head. To do this, lay a bomb over the enemy and blow it up, standing on the glass. The explosive wave and a bunch of fragments will not bring much harm, but Batman, as if appearing from nowhere, will hit both legs and instantly knock out the enemy. Be prepared for the fact that the friends of the latter will come to rescue it with the whole crowd.

As soon as you buy the necessary improvement and the gel starts to work as a mine, you can apply the following tactics. First, study the guard route. Then lay the explosives in the place where it turns out to be in a minute or two, and take a comfortable place: a very pleasant sight awaits you.

It often happens that frightened prisoners rush from one corner to another without any logic. In this case, apply the gel to the floor, and when the guard will pass nearby – Methno Betarang. Noise will attract his attention, and then a surprise!

Ultrabatikot

Batikot itself is quite worthless and useless. You can pull the box or pull the enemy to yourself, but the sense? Neither prospects, no brightness. But with the advent of Batman of a little thing in the arsenal, called “Ultrabatikot”, everything becomes much more fun and interesting, because instead of one hook there are three of them here.

Why so much? For example, to ruin those walls and open those ventilation shafts that cannot be close to close. It happens that at a solid distance from the earth you can see a walled wall and neither get to it, nor get around. Then the ultraBatikot comes to the rescue.

This is important: Most “inaccessible” places keep the secrets of Riddler, from ordinary interrogative signs and to answers to riddles.

How to apply this invention in battle? For example, three guards are talking under a shaky wall and talk about something. It is unrealistic to lay explosives there: firstly, it is noticeable, and secondly, do not jump. Then it makes sense to arm the ultrabetkogem and dump a pile of stones on nothing suspecting enemies.

Note: even more fun when a couple of Joker minions stands on a fragile floor, without even suspecting it. It is only worth pulling a little, and they will fall into the ground with shapeless scolding bags with potatoes. This, of course, will attract general attention, but the sight is worth it.

Some guards patrol the upper sections of the room. They walk around the edge all the time and hold on to the railing, so as not to stumble and not fall. This is what they need to help them do. Being below or standing opposite, Batman can release a Batikot and throw the enemy down. The fact that the enemy will stand after such a fall, even you should not stutter.

Trosomet

Some cliffs or abyss do not cross without special equipment. For example, without a cable. Naturally, in Arkham there are no signs “cable right and right. Pleasant descent ". Therefore, Batman acquired a device that can create a cable anywhere and anytime.

The cable is used mainly for its intended purpose, but it is perfect for the battle. No, extend the rope from one enemy forehead to another, unfortunately, you cannot. However, if a bunch of opponents awaits you ahead of you, you can let the cable into the wall behind them and arrange a small but cheerful bowling.

Code sequenator

Perhaps the most hated item for most players is the subject in the arsenal of Batman. Using this device, you can and need to hack electronic locks and bombs. And all would be nothing if it were not for a mini game with which you can suffer for hours. Not because it is so heavy, but because initially nothing is clear: what kind of wheels, why twist them, and in general, what to do something?

But you just need to overload the security system. This happens when a wave running along the screen of the device touches the walls. The monitor becomes bright green, and after a couple of seconds the electronic lock explodes.

The left wheel (by default keys A and D) is responsible for the length of the waves, right (by default, the left and right button of the rodent) – for their frequency. The wavelength is completely dependent on their frequency. First of all, you need to find a weak place in the lock system: slowly twist the right wheel until the screen is almost green. As soon as this happened, start to indulge with the wavelength. A couple of seconds – and everything should turn out.
