Is it still worth playing?

Batman and Robin send Batman's villains back to Arkham Asylum in this 2008 Lego action adventure. It was the first of Traveller's Tales' Lego games with a story of its own rather than a film's. There are thirty levels in six chapters: three for the heroes, and three for the villains, each unlocked by finishing a hero chapter. As in the earlier Lego games, you fight, solve puzzles, build objects from Lego bricks and collect studs to buy power-ups and extras. Suits change what a hero can do: Batman can glide or plant bombs, and Robin can walk up magnetic walls or vacuum up loose bricks. Some levels put you in the Batmobile, the Batboat or the Batwing. A second player can join on the same screen, and finished levels open in Free Play to replay with other characters. With a friend beside you it holds up today, since each scene asks for both characters, their suits and some building.
