"SURPRISE!"

Story[]

While Joker's Group is somewhere playing cards, Killer Moth tries to reach for a light, but is scared off by The Scarecrow. The Joker watches on his television as his girlfriend Harley Quinn makes two Police Officer laugh with laughing gas. When the Joker sees Harley making the guards laugh, he comes up with a great plan. The plan is to blow up Gotham Cathedral to spread his laughing gas throughout the city. Killer Moth tries to reach for the light again, but Scarecrow beats him. Harley Quinn comes with an empty trash can. The Joker goes to ACE Chemicals to look for gas.

A Joker Goon disguised as a policeman goes to the police station, there he knocks on Commissioner Gordon's door to bring him a gift. Gordon and his two Police Officers draw their guns to realize that the gift was a box from the Joker, but they realize that the goon brought them a letter that the Joker and Harley Quinn are at Haly's Circus. The goon then leaves the police station and calls the Joker on the phone that Gordon is already arriving. The Joker and his girlfriend Harley Quinn go looking for him. The villains eventually find Commissioner Gordon with reinforcements. They fight him. Gordon is beaten up and hides in a car, but realizes it was a trap set for him by the Joker. Harley Quinn arrives in her hammer truck and the Joker ties the cage with a rope. The villains take him away.

Walkthrough[]

You start at the docks of Haly's Circus. Use Harley Quinn to grab onto a handhold while the Joker is down, then turn a gear while the Joker is on a cylinder to make it spin. Switch to the Joker to press pressure plates and make way for Harley Quinn, then switch back to Harley Quinn to destroy an object and turn off some lasers for the Joker. Build a switch in the Harley Quinn part and a dynamite in the Joker part, then press the switch to destroy a door. Press a pressure plate to make way for the Joker, then switch to him to press other pressure plates and make way for Harley Quinn. Destroy a cylinder to get the two villains back together, then defeat a bunch of cops coming at you. Use the Joker to destroy a door, then hit a switch while Harley Quinn is on a circus ring to get her onto a bridge. Switch to Harley Quinn to hit another switch to get the Joker up on the bridge while he's on the circus wheel. Head to the next area.

In the next area, use Harley Quinn to grab onto a ladder. Pull a lever to lower the ladder and make the Joker climb up. Jump onto a platform and use the Joker to go up and down a platform. Destroy some rubble to build some tables, then build a rope to cross a gap. Defeat a bunch of cops coming to attack you, then destroy some crates to build some handholds. Use high-jump with Harley Quinn to reach a platform and pull a lever to make the Joker go up, then switch to the Joker for a train to come and destroy some rocks. After that, go into the next area.

In the next area, defeat a number of policemen who come to attack you. Destroy some objects to build a cannon that will destroy a door, then destroy a safe to reveal a color clue. Hit some switches like this: Blue, Red, Yellow. After that, a door will open and it will take you to face Commissioner Gordon. Remove 3 of his hearts and he will go to a second floor. Use the Joker to turn on a crane. Use the crane to grab an explosive stuffed animal. Drop the stuffed animal into a truck which Gordon calls for him to get back on the ground. Remove another 3 of his hearts and he will return to the second floor. Repeat the steps mentioned above to finish off the remaining hearts and finish the level.
