Batman - The Dark Knight Slot Review 2024

Batman - The Dark Knight

The Dark Knight is a 5 reel, 241 payline progressive video slot created by Microgaming. It includes both stacked wilds, a scatter symbol, free spins and random bonus features. The Dark Knight is based on the movie of the same name. All of the images and sounds are those featured within the movie and additional images of Gotham City can be seen behind the slot for effect.

Batman – The Dark Knight features many of the movies main characters. This is due to the slot being a branded slot. You will be able to join Batman, the Joker, Rachel, Harvey Dent, Commissioner Gordon, Maroni, Lau and the Scarecrow. The other symbols are the usual fillers like letters. The Batman logo and the Joker logo act as the bonus symbols. All of the character symbols will, when found in a winning combination, feature clips from the movie. The images are incredibly well presented as are the movie clips. You will also find special effects from when wins occur as well as when Batman or the Joker appears at random to award bonus wins.

The Batman will, at random, drop down from above the reels to perform various tasks. This includes holding certain reels in place when filled with wilds, dropping down to the right of the reels and awarding a cash prize, showing at the bottom of the screen and blowing up other positions on the reels turning them wild or may drop down above the center reel and turn as many as three reels completely wild. The Joker may also appear and will either fire off a rocket or toss a grenade to award bonus wins.

The scatter symbol is represented using the Joker logo. This will do two things. First it will award you a scatter payout based on the number that appear on the reels. The maximum amount this will pay is $600. It also will trigger the free spins that are offered in The Dark Knight when three or more are showing. It awards 15 free spins with a multiplier of two. This can be increased up to 10x randomly should the Joker decide to do so or the Joker may award additional free spins. The Batman also will appear and perform his various tasks.

The wild symbol may appear stacked on any reel. This can occur during both the regular game play and during the free spin play. This is a valuable asset to this slot as it can often be combined with the Batman dropping down and turning other reels wild. This is where some substantial wins can occur.

This slot is part of the Mega jackpot series that is offered under the MicroGaming software. It includes four jackpots that can be triggered at any time. When triggered, you will see the game screen morph into a wheel. You will be able to choose between Batman or the Joker. The wheel is then spun and one of the four jackpots will be awarded. The jackpots start at a base amount of $10 and increase to a base amount of $1,000,000. They continue to build until won.

This is a fantastic progressive slot that is thrilling to play. The multiple features that have been included only make it that much better. When you factor in the random jackpots you really have the perfect combination for a slot game.
