PrinceWatercress plays Batman Returns (SMS) - Part 2 of 10


The second stage takes us to Shreck's Department Store, which has its fair share of elevators, falling chandeliers and fire pits. This is where you'll really learn how to use the grappling hook.


Stage 2, Route 1

Unlike the streets of Gotham City, which were wide open, these place is a lot more linear and maze-like. Enemies will come out of the doors in the background if you come too close to them, but some doors will reveal bat icons that give you power-ups.. There are conveyor belts that you will move you in one direction, and the "chevrons" you stand behind will tell you which directions they will take you.

You can leap through thin floors and ceilings, but not the thick ones.

New enemies here include guys with rocket launchers who will shoot rockets at you and clowns who will slide kick you if you get too close.

Watch out for the chandeliers near the end of the first section, as they start fires when they drop. Keep pressing the jump button to stay on the ceiling and get over the newly-made fire pits.

The second section has a huge fire pit. Use the rapid tap of Button 2 from earlier to get to the edge of the underside of the conveyor belt platforms, then swing and grapple jump to the next..

The boss here is Catwoman. Wait for her at the left side, jump over her whip, then hit her with your grappling hook when she sticks to the building on the left side of the background as she jumps between buildings. When you hit her, go all the way to the left, then jump to avoid the whip. She'll then jump between the buildings again. When she is on her knees after getting hit, she will run away and you will have beaten her...for now...
