Complete guide to the Marvel Slots by PlayTech
Marvel Slots are produced by two companies under separate licensing agreements with Marvel Enterprises and the resulting games have been some of the most memorable of recent years. Those companies are Cryptologic and Playtech with the former (2005) beating the latter (2010) to the start line by about five years. The Marvel Comics series at Playtech and the Wonders series at NetEnt are two examples of this. Rarely, there may even be a site wide progressive that applies to all games, such as at WMS’s Jackpot Party Casino. Vegas slots have became so widespread that linking themselves to movies in a way they are designed is increasing. Marvel comics slot machine games are well known for being fascinating, but Disney (the new owners of Marvels) have distanced themselves from these games, claiming they want nothing to do with the gambling industry.

Important Update: The huge jackpots have now moved over to PlayTech's DC Comics slots... there are some excellent titles in this range (find out more in this detailed PlayTech Slot Jackpots page at SNG Planet). As for the Marvel titles, they are gone. The deal with PlayTech ended, and the slots are no longer online.
There are plenty more excellent games in the PlayTech range, my go-to for them is BGO casino. You'll get 10 no-deposit free spins (and can keep what you win without play-through) to check out the games. See www.bgo.com for details!
The hugley popular Marvel Slots are one of the biggest features of any online casino who have a license with PlayTech. These slots are all linked into the same series of Jackpots, there being four different Jackpot levels. Entry to the Jackpot round is awarded randomly, however you’ll have more chance of entering the round the higher the stakes you play. In the Jackpot round you are guaranteed to win either the ‘power’ the ‘super power’, the ‘extra power’ or the ‘Ultimate Power’ prizes. You’ll see twenty tiles on the screen and each one will reveal one of the four Jackpot symbols – when you reveal the same symbol three times, you’ll win that Jackpot!
Alongside the pooled Jackpot, you’ll find that each game has its own characteristics, so here I write about each and every game in the Marvel range. Early games were based on the comic books, though nowadays the titles are very much tied in with the blockbuster movies. You'll find that the latest games feature clips from these films, and often have bonus games based on memorable scenes.
Free Playtech Slots No Download No Reg
You can find all of these slots (and 100's more) at the trusted Coral Casino (part of the UK bookmaker of the same name). More on their £50 for £10 bonus offer at the end of the Marvel slots list below.
List of PlayTech Marvel Slot Games
Fantastic Four – 20 lines
The Fantastic Four comprise of Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing, and these 4 characters make up the most valuable symbols in the game. The game also has a feature for each character, where you’ll win free spins and frozen wilds throughout the feature – these features being activated during the Free Games round when landing the ‘Globe’ scatter symbol 3 or more times. (There is also a 50 line version of this game).
Spiderman – 25 lines
This slot is based upon the comic book version of the Spiderman franchise. This game is loaded with features, including the Spidey SnapShot feature which earns a cash reward, and the Spiderman collection feature which will randomly select one of a further five features – the hot zone free games, rivaling free games, radioactive free games, the city chase and the ultimate fight. The final two features are the ones to play – both original and potentially very profitable!
X-Men – 25 lines
This game features all of the characters you’ll find in X-Men including Cyclops, Storm and Wolverine. The game has a wild symbol, as well as an X-feature where you’ll be paid out 5 times your total bet if certain symbols appear in an X shape on the slot. Landing Professor X or Magneto on the middle reel will activate the ‘Heroes’ or ‘Villains’ feature, where you’ll earn a potentially unlimited amount of games. (There is also a 50 line version of this slot).
Iron Man – 25 lines
This game features two different Iron Man symbols (one where he is flying, the other where he looks particularly menacing) as well as Tony Stark in the flesh. Both Iron Man symbols act as expanding wilds and the ‘Iron Man’ (worded) symbol acts as a scatter symbol for the ‘Missile Attack’ bonus round. Here you’ll shoot down missiles to win either cash prizes, free spins or a multiplier for the free games.
Iron Man 2 –25 lines
This game features the characters from the second film in the franchise. The top symbol in the game is Tony Stark, and six of the symbols on the game actually occupy two reels, which makes for a very original game. The ‘Iron Man 2’ symbol acts as the scatter symbol, where you’ll gain 10 free games with increased multiples the more scatter symbols you land. (There is also a 50 line version of this slot).
Playtech Games For Fun
Iron Man 3 – 25 lines
This game features a host of characters associated with the film series, with 3 different Iron Man symbols – the Mark 42, the War Machine and the Iron Patriot. Each of these has its own feature, which you’ll choose when landing 3 or more of the ‘Iron Man’ scatter symbol. Each is a free game feature, however you’ll find freezing wilds, random wilds and dynamic multiplier in the different games.
Read my detailed review of Iron Man 3 here.
Blade – 20 lines
The Blade slot is based around the fictional vampire hunter. Blade himself is the top symbol in the game, being worth a massive 25,000 coins if landing 6 in a row on a payline. You might think this is difficult on a 5 reel slot, however landing the ‘Blade’ symbol anywhere on reel 5 will split the last symbol in any winning combination into two identical symbols – an interesting and original feature. The game also has a scatter symbol where 15 free games can be won.
Daredevil – 20 lines
Although blind, Daredevil uses his other four senses to make him superhuman – this slot based around his adventures. Daredevil himself is the most valuable symbol in the game, and you’ll be given 10 free games with random wilds if hitting the ‘DD’ scatter symbol three times or more. The Bulls Eye feature allows you to place the Bulls Eye target on any of the fifteen positions on the slot – and if Bulls Eye himself lands on that position, you’ll win 3x your total bet.

Elektra – 20 lines
The Elektra slot is based upon the female ninja assassin character. The game has an interesting ‘weapons bonus’ feature, where you’ll choose either 10 free games, 14 free games with a x2 multiplier, or 7 games with a 4x multiplier – although when making the choice you’ll also choose a weapon, which will replace the other 2 symbols on the game reels, making the choice not so obvious as it might seem. Elektra herself acts as the wild symbol, which will expand during the free games.
The Incredible Hulk – 25 lines
This game is a fun one, especially when landing on the ‘smash bonus’ round. You’ll attempt to smash the seven cars and the three helicopters for cash – 3 cars and 1 helicopter will pay out, although the ‘Hulk Rage’ feature is activated randomly here, where he’ll smash all 7 cars! You’ll also gain free spins with the scatter symbol and the Hulk symbol acts as an expanding wild – perhaps unsurprisingly! (There is also a 50 line version of this slot)
You can read my detailed review of the Incredible Hulk Slot here.
Avengers – 20 lines
This slot features many of the Marvel Super Heroes, including the Hulk, Thor, Captain America and Iron Man. This game has an excellent feature in the ‘Wall of Heroes’ bonus round. Here you’ll pick from a selection of Avengers icons which will each reveal a different hero – pick the same hero three times and you’ll be taken to the corresponding feature game – each featuring 9 free games, with differing multipliers and randomly assigned wilds.
Again, for more detail on this top-rated slot, you can read my detailed review.
Captain America – 20 lines
This game is based around the exploits of Captain America and his arch enemy in Red Skull. The game has a number of features, including both of the main characters being wild and multiplying wins when substituting the symbols linked with the characters. The ‘Super Energy’ bonus game gives you 4 free spins to start with, however revealing nine different shields may give you extra spins, increased multipliers and even a retrigger symbol.
Wolverine – 25 lines
This slot is all about the exploits of X-men character Wolverine, the Wolverine symbol being the best in the game, both in terms of payouts and the fact that the symbol is also a stacked wild. You’ll earn free games when landing the ‘Admantium’ scatter symbol 3 times, which can be re-triggered and the ‘Berserker Rage’ feature gives you one re-spin with wilds all over the reels!
Marvel Jackpot Roulette
There is one more way to win the Marvel Jackpot - the themed Roulette game. This has an extra Marvel slot on the reel which is optional, you can choose to play as a standard roulette game if you wish. The jackpot is randomly triggered, in the same way it works with the slots.
Latest Marvel Slot Titles
As the movie franchise continues to be a huge success (I have to admit to enjoying their movies!), there are undoubtedly more slots to follow. I look forward to adding 'Ant Man' here soon, and more as we go through the year. Remember to bookmark this page and come back when a new movie is launched.

Along with that other slots behemoth, Microgaming, Playtech is the biggest provider of online casino and gaming software in the world.
Multi-award winning and responsible for some of the most popular online slots around, Playtech has so many fingers in so many pies it's a wonder the London Stock Exchange-listed firm manages to excel at all of them.
But whether it's online poker, bingo or casino, Playtech manages to do just that. Let's take a closer look at what makes Playtech's slots so special.
About Playtech
Formed in 1999, Playtech didn't get its first casino licensee until two years later, but by 2006 it was listed on the London AIM and crushing the competition with is iPoker online network.
Sportsbetting followed, but it's the many online casino acquisitions that slots fans will be interested in.

Popular Playtech Slots
As you'd expect from a major online slot developer, Playtech's slots offering is wide and varied. The software manufacturer has produced hundreds of popular games, ranging from the fun (Dr Lovemore, A Night Out) to the fantast (Atlantis Queen, Alien Hunter) and the branded (Baywatch, Gladiator).
A tie-in with Marvel has led to some extremely popular progressive jackpot slots (see below) while other tie-ins have led to an excellent HBO slot based on The Sopranos, and DC-themed games like Daredevil and Electra.
More recently, slick 3D efforts like Three Musketeers and the Queen's Diamond have hit the casinos.
Based on the literary classic, the game is played with 50 paylines across its five reels and has expanding Wilds, a nice mission bonus where your heroic character storms the castle on the lookout for loot, and Free Spins.
Progressive Jackpot Games
Many online casinos, such as bgo, use Playtech's slots and table games exclusively, and as such we are beginning to see the number of Playtech jackpots rising.
Playtech has its fair share of progressive jackpot games. The popular Beach Life paid out a jackpot worth £3.7 million 2015, the second-biggest in the game's history. This followed hot on the heels of a £4.4 million payout for the game just a couple of years ago.
Marvel's Jackpot games are perhaps the biggest reason to play Playtech slots. The games that form part of the Marvel Mystery Jackpot (The Incredible Hulk, Fantastic Four, Avengers, etc) feature four separate levels of progressive that trigger at random during the game.
The Power Jackpot, Extra Power Jackpot, Super Power Jackpot and biggest Ultimate Power Jackpot (seeded at £100,000) feature a mystery grid made up of 20 squares which hide prize cash amounts. Find three matching symbols and you'll take down the corresponding jackpot.
