About the game

What you do in a play session

Batman: Gotham City Chronicles – The Narrows Chronicles is an expansion that puts the villains in the spotlight. You take on the roles of Bane and his allies—like the Joker, Riddler, and Harley Quinn—in a four-scenario campaign set on the base game's maps. The story revolves around an unlikely alliance with the Court of Owls, as the villains plot to unleash chaos on Gotham. Will this partnership hold, or is betrayal in the air? And can the heroes stop them in time? With seven new character sheets and mechanics that explore the city's dark side, this expansion is a must for Batman fans who want to play on the wrong side of the law.
