Marvel Slots

Slots machine based on Marvel comics first appeared in online casinos almost five

years ago. Just Cryptologic was the first online gaming software provider to get the

exclusive rights to produce Marvel slots. These slots got enthusiastic response

immediately and became very popular with players. The reason to that was the great

popularity of comics among Americans who were the main customers on the online

gaming market. Marvel is the major publisher of comics. Just Marvel comics gave the

world such characters as Hulk, Iron Man, Spider Man, X-Men and many, many others. It

is not worth forgetting the fact that the world’s best film studios constantly shoot high

budget movies about these superheroes. That’s why the success of Marvel slots was

predetermined.

So, what is the difference between Marvel slots and usual casino slots? First of all, you

will see your favorite characters as symbols on the reels. The plot of every slot is built

around the adventures of famous characters widely known to many comics fans. The

developers do their best to make these machines unforgettable. Marvel slots have

state-of-the-art graphics, true-to-life sound effects and perfect animation. During bonus

games the characters become alive and you can see them moving, shooting, fighting,

flying, etc. So, you watch a real action movie.

leading software developers, PlayTech. Marvel multi-level mystery progressive

slots are one of the recent additions to the family of PlayTech machines. Besides

jackpots the player has to find 3 identical jackpot symbols. However, there is time limit
