9/30/09 - True to its boasts at the recent industry showcase EiG in Copenhagen, online gambling software provider Playtech has released the first two of a long series of new Marvel themed slots in the form of "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk".
These are the first games in the Marvel Slots Series based on Marvel's movies that are to be offered by Playtech in the coming months.
The new games are founded on the popular characters from the superhero block-busters. The sweeping mass market appeal and broad recognition of the Marvel brand, coupled with the advanced graphics and realistic audio should ensure that "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk" will prove popular.
Both 3 x 5 reel, 20 line slots are crammed with special innovative features, Playtech claims. Iron Man, contains a Missile Attack Bonus, a 'unique' expanding wild feature, and an attractive top prize of x5 000 line bet. Equally, the Hulk, offers rapid fire action with a special Hulk Smash Bonus Round, where players take out cars and helicopters for wins and a top prize of x4 000 line bet.
Shahar Sella, Head of Casino for Playtech, says: "Following the overwhelming success of the Gladiator branded slots Playtech is delighted to enable our licensees to add these remarkably popular, well known brands to their games offering. We are confident that these slots, with their established mass market appeal will appeal to a large audience of new and existing players, supporting our licensees' acquisition and player retention efforts, by raising the profile of their games portfolio and further enhancing the gaming experience for the players."
