Play Batman: Vengeance Online

Summary

Batman: Vengeance on the Game Boy Advance feels like a miniature anthology of superhero tasks. The handheld version stitches together classic 2‑D side‑scrolling beat‑‘em‑up sections for Batman, overhead puzzle rooms for Robin, and occasional Batmobile or Batwing drives. Each style respects the console’s limits while still delivering a “Batman‑style” experience, with responsive glides and a handy grappling hook. Checkpoints and unlimited continues ease the trial‑and‑error nature of platforming, and a password system lets you pick up where you left off.

As Batman you can run, jump, cape‑glide, climb ledges and fling Batarangs or smoke bombs when prompted. A jump‑kick packs extra punch, though multiple foes can still overwhelm the somewhat clunky combat. Robin’s top‑down stages swap combat for moving boxes, pulling key cards and steering the remote Batcrawler to unlock new paths.

After clearing Story Mode, passwords unlock an “Advance Mode” that tightens timers and hides extra data‑disk collectibles, adding a fresh layer of replay value.

Storyline

In Batman: Vengeance on GBA, Batman rescues a woman named Mary from a Joker‑planted bomb at Gotham Chemicals, only to uncover she’s Harley Quinn. The Joker appears to fall from a demolished Gotham Bridge, but Batman suspects he survived.

Batman and Batgirl stop Mr. Freeze at Gotham Industrial Research, where Freeze tries to kill scientist Isaac Evers, creator of the unstable Promethium drug. Batman learns the Joker had secretly funded Evers after government money vanished.

Poison Ivy’s worm‑infested super‑plants force Batman back to Gotham Chemicals, where Mayor Hamilton Hill reveals Ivy blackmailed the elite. After defeating Ivy and obtaining an antidote, Batman tracks a hijacked blimp carrying explosive Joker toys.

At the Gasworks, Joker reveals he faked his death and used Promethium to mass‑produce a flammable Joker venom for the city’s sewers. Batman shuts down the pipe network, boards the blimp, stops the toxin, and destroys the airship, saving Gotham and letting Joker fall only to be rescued.
