Luckily, in 1997, a follow-up titled The New Batman Adventures began, rewarding fans with an extra 24 episodes and a revamped animation style. Despite the Batman universe continuing in earnest after Batman: The Animated Series aired, many agree that there has been nothing quite like the hit animated show but, in an unprecedented turn of events, the beloved series is back, with a twist.
Become Gotham's Most Infamous Villain
Courtesy of Upper Deck, fans of the original Batman: The Animated Series can relive the series in an incredible board game experience which could see you become the ultimate enemy of Gotham. For 2-5 players with each game taking around 60-150 minutes to complete, Enemies of Gotham is a competitive area control game centered around some of the most iconic villains from Batman history. By burning buildings, controlling Gotham City’s districts, and fighting Batman, you will be able to earn Infamy and whichever villain has accrued the most Infamy at the end of the game will win. However, in order to win, you will need to master timing and positioning, as well as take advantage of situations in order to outsmart your opponents.
In Enemies of Gotham City, play as infamous villains like The Joker, Poison Ivy, and Two Face. Fight to make some cash, thwart Batman, and become the most feared villain in Gotham City. To do this, you’ll have to plan out your moves and strategize, but you must also be adaptable, Gotham City is in chaos, and your plans may not always go as intended! Wrestle for control of Gotham’s districts with rival villains and out-think your opponents by using your power and weapons.
Watch out for Batman and his allies who are looking to bring peace to Gotham City and send you to Arkham Asylum. Will you become the most infamous villain of them all, or are you just another two-bit crook?
