From Sega 8-bit specialists Aspect comes one of many adaptations of Tim Burton's 1992 superhero sequel Batman Returns. Like other versions, it is a side-scrolling platformer. While very similar to the Game Gear version, the Master System version has slightly different levels and gameplay mechanics. Batman must move through five stages on his way to defeat the Penguin. These include the streets and rooftops of Gotham City, Max Shreck's department store, the sewers, and the Penguin's lair. For the first four levels, a route can be selected from two options, allowing for different paths through the game. Enemies standing in Batman's way can be defeated by throwing the Batarang at them. At the beginning, the weapon's range is very limited, but it can be expanded by collecting powerups. Other tools Batman can use are a grappling hook to pull himself up to higher levels or swing across dangerous areas, and his cape, which can be used as a parachute, for more control during falls. Unlike in the Game Gear version, there is no health bar: a single hit will kill Batman. To compensate, the game contains a generous amount of extra lives. - Mobygames.com

Following on the success of the movie with the same title, Batman Returns was released on a range of platforms including the much loved Sega Master System. Throughout the movie Batman faces off against the deceitful Penguin, who creates an alliance with influential businessman Max Chreck. A revenge stricken Cat-woman is born from a quiet admin worker and teams up with Penguin to try and frame Batman for the murder of a female model. With a lack of cut-scenes, the game itself misses the mark in following the movie's story-line, but does provide some controller gripping platforming game-play. Based on a side scrolling, beat-em-up, platforming game style, Batman Returns offers something unique that differentiates itself from the many other similar games - a choose your own path option. As the player, you will complete five levels although you choose between two slightly different paths when commencing each of the initial four levels. Essentially this replaces a difficulty setting as route one is fairly straightforward and easier than route two, which challenges the player with a greater number of obstacles and enemies, along with a higher difficulty of platforming. Armed with the Bat-rope, Batman can reach bonuses that provide additional lives and increase the speed or range of Batman's Batarang. When playing the more difficult routes the player is forced to use the Bat-rope to navigate between platforms over floor-less areas. Using the Bat-rope to swing between platforms is all about timing. […] Batman Returns is not a long game with five levels in total. Being able to select different routes on the first four levels adds to the replay value, although there is a lack in variation between levels with all of them forcing the use of the Bat-rope to jump between platforms and the Batarang to kill enemies. The lack of cut-scenes results in a lack of story in the game. Catwoman does make an appearance in two boss battles along with the Penguin in the boss final battle, leaving the regular enemies as generic goons who make up the Red Triangle Circus gang. The game-play is challenging enough, although a bit repetitive. The controls can take some getting used to, specifically using the Bat-rope as it is all about the timing. Being able to select different routes adds something different to the game-play and reply value of the game. Being a Batman fan myself I maybe biased in the scoring, but in all I can say I'm proud to have this title in my library. - www.smstributes.co.uk
