Batman Gotham City Chronicles

/

Board Games - Batman Gotham City Chronicles is a board game that let’s you play out various story lines within the Batman universe. This set is part of the two player vs. mode that adds some dashboards and additional miniatures.

I haven’t played the game yet but the concept seems cool. Unfortunately the miniatures are some what all over the place in quality. Some of the sets I painted previously are on par with the Knight Models kits while others are really soft on the detail and merely get the job done representing the characters.

Batman - Gotham City Chronicles Expansions

Board Games – Gotham City Chronicles looks like a really interesting game, you’d never know that by looking at the game box which has some really cool art on the front but zero information about what’s in the box on the back. It’s really frustrating and bad packaging design. If I pick up a game box I should be able to flip it over and at a minimum get a description of what in the box with a picture. Sure a nice clean fancy looking box is impressive but years down the road no one’s going to remember what this game is and won’t be able to quickly figure it out at a glance.

It’s a shame really because the miniatures are great and the inside of the boxes are well done, if not a bit space hungry. These expansions are the Batman Inc and Suicide Squad Expansions which are nice sets but to further add to my rant the characters pictured on the box art are not even included in the sets. I’m sure they appear in another box but putting Harley and Dick on the covers when they’re not in the box is a bit annoying.
