About this board game

Talisman: Batman – Super-Villains Edition is a competitive adventure game for 2–6 players, with games lasting around 90 minutes. Set in Arkham Asylum, it challenges players to take on the roles of Gotham City’s notorious villains.

Players sneak and fight their way across the asylum’s two floors and central tower, competing to be the first to subdue Batman and release the dangerous inmates. Along the way, each villain develops their health, strength, and cunning while confronting heroes and other challenges.

Batman moves around the board as a non-player character, creating an additional threat for every aspiring criminal mastermind. To win, players must overcome these obstacles and shut down the Arkham Asylum security system, freeing the inmates and earning the reputation needed to become King or Queen of Gotham City’s criminal underworld.

  • Play as one of Gotham City’s notorious super-villains.
  • Explore Arkham Asylum’s two floors and central tower.
  • Compete while facing heroes, including Batman as an NPC.
  • Build health, strength, and cunning throughout the game.
  • Use more than 100 encounter cards, six-sided dice, and character stat boards.

Released in 2019, Talisman: Batman – Super-Villains Edition features artwork from DC’s “New 52” era and custom board art. The set includes thirteen plastic character figures, supporting a distinctive take on the classic Talisman tabletop experience through its comic-book setting and anti-heroic objective.
