  • The Chill of a Lifetime: Mr. Freeze and Scarecrow threaten Gotham.
  • The Green Menace: Poison Ivy, Catwoman, and Red Claw stand in the heroes' way.
  • Bank Robbing is a Gas: The Riddler and The Penguin use sleeping gas, robot dolls, and penguins.
  • The Joker's Last Laugh? The Joker returns for a final confrontation at Gotham City's Port Authority Building.

Gameplay

Batman relies on his grappling hook to survive dangerous situations, while Robin can hang from ceilings to escape peril. Both heroes have powerful fists and can search for weapon power-ups during their battles.

Released on November 12, 1993, the game was developed and published by Konami for Game Boy and Nintendo Game Boy.
