Batman is back
Batman is back. You may have thought that Microgaming losing their DC/Warner Bros license that the end was nigh for the Dark Knight. Well, in a sense it was. At least, The Dark Knight slot. The caped crusader will live on, though, in Playtech’s new DC themed slot series, starting with the Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot machine. Our Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot review will take a closer look at this upcoming progressive jackpot slot.
A trip down memory lane
If you thought you were going to miss the big money progressives of Playtech’s Marvel Mystery slots, you needn’t worry. Playtech is merely switched them over to games like the Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot machine. Unlike Microgaming’s take on the franchise, this new game isn’t based on the Christopher Nolan films starring Christian Bale. Instead, the Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot graphics are based on the old television series.
Betting on Batman
Playtech’s Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot game will feature 5 reels and 25 predictable paylines. Players won’t be able to adjust those lines as they see fit, but they will be able to stake anything from 0.25 per spin, up to 500.00 per spin whilst spinning the reels of this slot. On the upside, there are four progressives to win, and they are triggered in much the same way as those which feature in the Marvel slots – via a randomly triggered bonus round.
Crafty Catwoman features
There’s no shortage of Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot bonuses. The Batman and Catwoman: Cash video slot actually contains the Batman logo as its wild icon. When they appear on the reels, they can substitute for all other symbols in the game, and cough up the best winnings (save for the progressives).
At any point in the game, a second chance feature may be triggered. When this randomly triggered bonus starts, Catwoman may decide to inundate the reels with extra scatter symbols, which could provide you with a second chance of triggering one of the slot’s two bonuses.
The scatter icon on this slot is the pink bonus icon. When it appears on the first, and third reels, the Cat Burglar bonus is triggered. If it lands on the first, third, and fifth reels, the Batman vs. Catwoman Free Games feature is triggered.
Batman versus Catwoman
In the first bonus feature, players can pocket an instant win cash prize, or an increased multiplier. That multiplier won’t do you much good there, but it will help later on in the free spins feature. In that feature, players can select from Batman and Catwoman, to bag extra multipliers and super stacked symbols. Between 7 and 25 free games can be won, and any multipliers you picked up in the Cat Burglar bonus will be added to this feature.
A new ruler is coming to Gotham
We were a bit worried for the fate of superhero themed slots when we heard that Microgaming and Playtech had lost their licenses. Knowing that Playtech is going to be ruling over Gotham City for a few years certainly perks us up. The Batman and Catwoman: Cash slot won’t be the only DC/Warner Bros game launched by Playtech in this series, either, so it is a case of good news all-round.
