Batman: Dark Tomorrow puts you in the cape and cowl of Gotham's richest vigilante as he tries to figure out who is behind a nefarious scheme that spans most of the Gotham Underworld. The settings throughout the game fit the style and feel of Gotham, and really allow you to become immersed in the game as it takes you through many of the city's familiar sights, like Arkham Asylum, Gazette Square, the Docks and others.
As you advance in the story line, a story that was originally developed by Batman comic writer Scott Peterson and Final Fantasy's Kenji Terada, you face many of Batman's classic villains like Killer Croc, Scarface and the Ventriloquist, Mr. Freeze, The Joker, Poison Ivy and many others. More times than not, you are forced to use more than your fists to defeat these enemies. Batman must employ his keen mind and the immediate environment to take them down.
Kemco has done a good job with filling Batman's utility belt with a lot of his classic tools and weapons, including Batarangs, Smoke Capsules, Batcuffs and a Batgrapple. You are given a limited number of Medical Packs, Batarangs and Smoke Capsules at the start of each area. If, as you traverse a dark alleyway or insane asylum hall, you find yourself being taken out a little too quickly, you might want to reassess the amount of each of these items you receive. After each death, you can choose between one of several options that allow you to redistribute the items in your menu.
