Batman: Arkham Asylum (2009)

A contained island gives Batman's night a satisfying shape: infiltrate, investigate, fight and gradually understand how the place fits together. Arkham Asylum is a good weekend choice when you want superhero confidence without a city full of competing errands. Budget roughly 10 to 12 hours for the story on Normal, and leave the Riddler clean-up optional. Its rhythmic counters and predator rooms offer two distinct kinds of concentration.
