Batman: Arkham City Park Row Riddler Trophies

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #1

You’re going to need to dive bomb from a nearby gargoyle in order to put enough pressure on the Riddler panel to light up the Riddler switch above it. You’ll also need to detonate your shock wave after you land.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #2 

This trophy can be seen inside a cage, but proximity mines are blocking the way in. Use your disruptor: mine detonator to disable them and claim your prize.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #3 

You need to use the disruptor: firearm jammer to disable the TYGER sentry in this danger zone. After that, just walk around the sentry to find a trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #4

On this roof southwest of the courthouse. It’s behind some bars, which are locked by a hackable console. Use your crytopgraphic sequencer.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #5 

You need an upgraded hacker to disable the electricity and open the bars.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #6

There are four Riddler switches you need to activate simultaneously. Locate the caged trophy. The nearest switch to it should be saved for last; find the other three and rig them with explosive gel. Return to the first switch, detonate your gel, then use your batarang to hit this remaining switch.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #7

Locate the liquor store pictured above. To the right is a weak wall that you can blow using explosive gel. Past that, there is a door that can be opened using your remote electric charge. The trophy is just beyond that door.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #8

Near where you might rescue a political prisoner. You’ll have to hop a fence to get here, but once you do, do a running slide to reach this trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #9

On a roof just across from the front entrance to the court house. Step on the Riddler panel to open the cage, then nab the trophy. If only they were all this easy...

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #10

Walk around the building just west of the Gotham Casinos and you’ll spot a trophy behind some bars. The soft wood panelling above the bars can be broken if you glide into it from the opposite roof.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #11

Directly across from the Gotham Casinos entrance there is a door just beyond a chain link fence that can be opened using the remote electric charge. Open it to find the trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #12

You’ll need to use your remote electrical charge to activate the transformers in sequence, moving the trophy through the chainlink cage.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #13 

Under a car just outside the entrance to the Gotham Casinos. You’ll have to grab it while doing a running slide since the car is too low to simply crouch under.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #14 

Use your freeze blast to stop the hot steam, then slide under the fence to nab this trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #15 

This gargoyle is riddled with Riddler symbols. Grappling up to it will unlock the Riddler door just below it. Inside you’ll find a trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #16

Here you’ll see what appears to be five blinking panels, but detective mode shows only the far right one to be connected to the cage. Wait for that panel to light up before throwing your batarang.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #17

On this roof there is some soft wooden panelling that you can remove with explosive gel. You can’t miss it in detective mode.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #18 

You’ll notice a panel here inside a chainlink cage, right by a caged trophy. Pilot your remote batarang through the nearby duct to activate the panel. Remember to use LT/L2 to slow your batarang down as it rounds the corner.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #19

Use your freeze blast to stop the hot steam, then duck under the fence to nab this trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #20

Look for a caged trophy. There is a Riddler switch just west of it on some smoke stacks. Use your batarang.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #21

On a high roof just northwest of the clocktower you’ll see a pressure pad. Face west and look down. The pad opens a trap door below. Jump down before it closes and use your explosive gel to reach the trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #22 

You need to touch all three of the panels surrounding this cage BEFORE you touch the ground. Glide into the highest panel from the opposite building, then press A/Cross to push off and glide in the opposite direction. Touch the next panel, then again press A/Cross to push off, making sure to end your flight on the third and final panel.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #23 

Three spurts of explosive gel detonated simultaneously will do the trick here.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #24 

In the political prisoner shanty town, look for some soft wood panelling. Since it’s at ground level, you can just punch through.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #25 

You’ll need to use your disruptor: firearm jammer on this TYGER sentry gun. After that just slap some explosive gel on the right wall to access the trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #26

You’ll need to chuck your batarang at each panel when it lights up. They light up in a certain sequence, so study the pattern and try to anticipate.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #27

You may spot this trophy long before you can reach it. You need to create an ice platform using the freeze blast, and then use your grapnel to pull yourself over to the trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #28

On the church roof, smack dab in the middle. You only need the cryptographic sequencer to use hack the nearby panel.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #29

In the alley behind the church you’ll see four Riddler panels. Stepping on the first unlocks the trophy cages above, but you need to somehow get over the other three red panels or the cage will close again. Use the line launcher and attach it to the far left wall (the fence directly in front of you won’t work). Turn around and grapple up to claim the trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #30

This one is located south west of the church. Use the remote electric charge to disable the electricity, then use your explosive gel on the left wall.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #31 

Turn on detective mode and follow the wiring to find a Riddler panel high above this caged trophy. Hit the panel with a batarang then quickly drop down before the cage closes.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #32

Look for the soft wood panelling at the back of the confessional, near medic Adam Hamasaki. He’s in the northeast corner.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #33

Above the door to the bell tower there is a small area that you can grapple up into. From here you can see soft wood panelling on the other side of the main entrance, but on the same level. Use your line launcher to bust through it.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #34

As you’re making your way up to the bell tower from inside the church, check above this archway for a trophy. Use your batclaw to get it down.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #35 

Stand near the back door and pilot a remote batarang through the nearby electric arc, down the stairs, over the bars, and into the fusebox. This will unlock the nearby cell, which contains a trophy.

PARK ROW - RIDDLER TROPHY #36

As you head up the stairs from the courthouse basement make sure to look up. There is a trophy above the door; use your grapnel to get it down.
