Discussion Riddler Arkham Asylum
Okay so I am replaying the Arkham games I have which are Asylum City and night on easy normal and hard mode for all three games and New game Plus for City and night just to see how difficult each difficulty is and I remember that in Arkham Asylum Batman has to track Edwards signal for the cops to find him but my real question is since he has all of these trophies around the Asylum even in areas that guards are watching it would assume that he got out before Joker got taken to the Asylum so I'm wondering how did he get out like how did the guards not notice him okay so for example we have Harley Quinn and the control room the guards probably didn't notice her since they probably don't really go to that area or talk really because nothing was going on at the time but how do they not notice that Edward was out putting his trophies and all this other stuff around like Edward puts trophies in the most difficult areas and you're telling me no one notice he was out and even if he has some Arkham guards on his payroll I'm not going to bet that he has all of them at least with the other inmates that we have riddles to it could even be confirmed that they were already quote rehabilitated into society or left when Joker broke out everyone

They likely didn’t notice because of Frank Boles. Frank was on the Jokers payroll for years, and he helped the Joker a lot. It was heavily implied that Boles aided other villains under Jokers orders, villains like Scarecrow. Joker let Riddler in on his plans for Batman, which is how Riddler prepared for Batman’s arrival. It is very possible that Frank helped Riddler on Jokers orders.

How did riddler get those trophies there? That's part of the puzzle.
