Introduction:
In Batman: The Telltale Series, players assume the role of the caped crusader and his alter ego Bruce Wayne, fighting against a mysterious threat know as The Children of Arkham. The game is set apart from any previously existing iteration of Batman games, films, or comics, so you can jump right into the narrative regardless of your background on the character.

Abbreviated Walkthrough:
There are a total of five episodes, each containing six story-related achievements. Like most Telltale games, Batman: The Telltale Series features a branching narrative, but the achievements will unlock upon chapter/episode completion regardless of your choices throughout the game. As such, you can play through each episode's chapter at your own pace, choosing whichever choices suit your playstyle.

Conclusion:
All in all, Telltale's take on Bruce Wayne/Batman and his villains is an enjoyable experience. The narrative and its characters are intriguing, and with such a cliffhanger of an ending, we can only hope for a second season that is equally as thrilling as the debut.
