Batman: Arkham Asylum Guide - Walkthrough

Abandoned Chamber

As you enter this room you get the Riddle: “This challenge can only be seen by those with a different view on life.”

A quick peek at the map should indicate that you have some work to do here!  First thing we will do is follow the balcony to the left and jump across, then go down the stairs and left to the corner where there is section of the big beamworks that you can climb and drop down into the water below.  Follow that around behind the foundation here and there is a floor grate you can open and drop into – do that now.

Move the the other end of this narrow tunnel and open the grate, pop up and snag the Riddler Trophy here.  Now drop back down and move through the duct and back out where we originally entered, then
walk to the right and drop down into the sewer and look to the south (right) and you will see a culvert you can crouch and move through.  Do that now, and at the end is a Riddler Trophy!  Now retrace your steps back to the grate we exited above and then run around to the front of this structure and take the stairs up, then the stairs to the right ahead of you.

Now head across and to the left as if we were leaving, doing a running jump to the ledge over the gap where the exit door is – but instead of taking the door, look to the left – and do a running jump to the platform there, then move to the end and hit A to climb – and shimmy around this ledge.  As you reach the water fall-like drain a dead body drops down from a pipe above – freaky eh?  Climb up and turn to face out – get a good running jump and land on the platform opposite you.

Follow this platform to the right and at the end on the left turn on Detective Mode and you will see a glowing orange cable holding up a section of catwalk – pull out your Batarang and cut that cable!  Excellent!  Now you have a catwalk to Batwalk!

As you step onto the catwalk you will see the end section of the brick arch on your left – face this and you have the option to climb – so do that, and then shimmy around until you can climb up on to the top of the arch.  Now crouch down and walk under the low section to the north and then stand when you get trough and look down at the floor – you see part of a question mark?  The other part is on a level below.

What you need to do is carefully position yourself and line up the two parts so that they form the completed mark – and then scan it to solve this Riddle! It may take some finessing on your part to do this, but rest assured you CAN do it.  Yes You Can!  Now look to the right and you will see another ledge with a Riddler Trophy – take a running jump and grab the ledge, pull yourself up and snag that Trophy and 200 XP Easy Peasy!

That is all that we can do here for now, so head for the exit door in the north wall and use it to enter the next part of the Flooded Corridor.
