Batman Unlimited: Gotham City’s Most Wanted
© 2016 StoryToys
This is a nicely crafted animated "storybook adventure app" that would make a good language enrichment experience, especially for a Batman fan. The illustrations and narration are excellent and the background music is richly orchestrated, making the experience a delight for both the eyes and the ears. Content includes ten chapters in which you try to figure out who is behind a Gotham City crime wave. Each chapter has an activity related to the story, the quality of these activities varies. You get to drive the Bat Mobile in a lane changing game, or dodge tall buildings in the Bat Glider. The text (available in four languages) is highlighted as it is read. If you like hand drawn comic graphics and aren't expecting realism you'll like this app. But if you're looking for an action game, keep looking.
