Enjoy Playtech Marvel Superhero Online Slots

 

Among the most popular slot games at online casinos is the Playtech Marvel superhero series. These branded online slots have been developed by Playtech under an agreement with Marvel Movies. There are over 15 titles featuring superheroes like Iron Man, Hulk, Blade, Captain America, Thor and Elektra. All of these can be played at Playtech online casinos such as Omni Casino and Mansion Casino.

The agreement with Marvel Movies allows Playtech to use the audio and visual content from the movies in the slot machines. Most striking is the use of the real likeness of the actors who play the role of the superheroes, their aides and their arch enemies. The symbols on the reels are taken from the legends of the Marvel superheroes. They include the source of their super powers, their special weapons and other items related to them. If you are a follower of Marvel Movies then you will understand the import of the symbols much better. For example, there is a pendant symbol in Elektra. Marvel fans will know that this was a family heirloom given to Elektra by her mother on her deathbed.

Playtech has introduced gaming features into these branded video slots that match the excitement of the superhero tales. Iron Man 2 is one of the most popular of the Marvel superhero slots. It features Iron Man symbols that span two rows. They payout as if the same symbol is appearing stacked on both rows. The slot machine Blade has a feature known as split symbol. When this feature is activated the last symbol in a winning combination is split into two and a therefore pays a greater amount. X-Men is loaded with Marvel heroes and villains and has an exciting free spins feature. The game begins in the Heroes mode with unlimited free spins. If the villain Magneto makes an appearance, the game switches to the Villains mode. There if the hero Xavier appears the game switches back to the Heroes mode. Once 8 cumulative free spins are played in the Villains mode the feature ends.

All the Marvel superhero slots are linked to the four-level Marvel Mystery Jackpot. This progressive jackpot is randomly triggered without any combination of symbols appearing on the reels. There is a grid of 20 squares that conceal the symbols for the various jackpot levels. The players click on the squares to reveal the symbols. The jackpot level that is the first to reveal three symbols is hit.
