The Dark Knight Rises

Based on the 2012 blockbuster film with the same name, The Dark Knight Rises is not only a sequel to the extremely successful slot game The Dark Knight, but a masterpiece on its own.

Featuring some of the greatest heroes, Batman, Selina Kyle and Bane, the game is a chance for the player to save Gotham City from the villains’ evil plan to destroy it.

And the great thing about it is that you can be a part of this epic battle between good and bad for as low as €0.30 per spin. And as if it wasn’t enough, the fun and the amazing rewards are always just around the corner in this amazing slot game.

With bets ranging from €0.30 to €15 and the already famous Microgaming 243 payways system, you’re in for a treat whenever you feel like virtually stopping the bad guys and getting real cash rewards for doing so.

Even though The Dark Knight Rises doesn’t have a progressive jackpot, it compensates with a great variety of bonus games, Wild symbols and great features aimed to please the user whether he’s just looking to blow off some steam or seeking that once in a lifetime win that could change his life.

As mentioned before, there is a series of bonus features, some of which are randomly-activated during gameplay. The first one is the Symbol Scramble feature. What this does to increase the fun is move around all the symbols on the reel in order to give you winning paylines. This is incredibly useful and a great way of rebuilding your bankroll after a couple of non-winning spins. You will definitely enjoy this a lot when on a downswing.

Another great bonus is the Expanding Wild feature. The Special Wild will expand on reel 3 and it will get you some nice rewards when you hit it.

And my personal favorite, the Fight Mode feature! You will be thrilled to see Batman fighting with Bane to get you greater rewards. During the battle, you will be awarded a random number of free spins and multiplier values that are added to the Free Spins Bonus when you trigger it next.

The Free Spins Bonus is the main way of getting great rewards out of your efforts to save Gotham City. You need one or more Scatter Bonus symbols to appear during a spin anywhere on the reel. On top of the 10 free spins you automatically win, you will also get to choose one of other two very nicely designed bonus games.

Choosing either Batman or Bane will get you to different bonus features for each and this is where you take advantage of the extra free spins and multiplier values you get out of the randomly triggered battles between Batman and the villain.

Choose Bane, and any winning free spin will activate Microgaming’s already famous Rolling Reels feature. Any winning symbols from the combination will disappear with a boom and leave empty blocks on your reel which will be then filled with other symbols, giving you therefore the chance to win again and again on the SAME free spin.

Another “moneymaker” that is brought to the table is the Super Stacked Wild feature. This one might take some work though, as it is only available after getting the Free Spins bonus 10 times. However, the rewards are more than appealing, since The Dark Knight Rises symbols appear and get stacked on reels 2 and 4, creating great odds of getting huge prizes!

Choosing Batman can get you the Extra Wild Blast bonus game, where you choose a symbol to act as an extra wild. This also gives you great opportunities of increasing your wins.

Batman’s harder to achieve feature which is also only available after triggering the Free Spins bonus 10 times is the Heat Seeking Wilds feature. This creates Wild symbols out of random symbols on the 3 middle reels, which increase considerably your chances of scoring big. The Wilds can split, offering the great opportunity of hitting a 6-of-a-kind combination which scores you double the amount you would get for hitting a 5-of-a-kind.

It may sound like a more complicated slot and the greater cash rewards may seem a bit harder to achieve, but what battle for the greater good isn’t that way?

The nice payout system which includes Microgaming’s aforementioned 243 payways feature, the appealing graphics and designs, along with the enjoyable gameplay and the in-game progressive rewards system make this a very nice slot game that will appeal not only to the movie’s fans or slot games fans, but to everyone who wants a piece of the action!
