[Western Crossover] Building an Arkham Wonderland

[Silly System shenanigans + amusement park construction + relentlessly tormenting villains + sending everyone flying + fourth-wall-breaking players]

Cessia opens her eyes and finds herself the newly appointed warden of Arkham Asylum in Gotham City.

There’s also a cobbled-together System in her head, with an amusement park construction guide in one hand and a zoo management manual in the other.

Cessia: …This feels familiar.

“We’re short on criminals for the attraction. Go catch some more!”

“Plan the criminal exhibits properly. Keep them in separate enclosures and increase visitor interaction!”

“There aren’t enough visitors. Unlock a new criminal outfit! I’m sure this dress will give Killer Croc a whole new look!”

“…”

And so, the people of Gotham see Arkham put up a towering drop-tower ride.

The Joker hangs from it, spinning head over heels in a 365-degree Thomas-style rotation and letting out shrill screams.

Arkham’s first S-rank amusement ride is a success!

From then on, Gotham’s headlines take a sharp turn!

"Shocking! Arkham Asylum Opens Its Doors to Visitors!"

"Why Is the Food Free, but a Bottle of Water Costs $20?"

"Is It Appropriate for an Alligator to Wear a Dress?"

"The Restrooms Are Full! The Restrooms Are Full! We Need a Restroom We Can Actually Use!"

"A Detailed Guide to the Best Attractions at Arkham!"

Meanwhile, the warden flops onto the sofa with a bag of popcorn, looking pleased with herself. “Arkham Theme Park helps every talent find their place in the workforce!”

Batman: Cessia is Arkham’s number-one patient.

Robin: The warden is Gotham’s most hardcore master of psychological manipulation (×

Villains: Don’t come any closer!

Notes for later:

1. A cheerful construction story with gaming references. It’s all about having fun, and you don’t need to play games to understand it.

2. The familiar no-CP setup.

3. The villains are treated very harshly.
