Captain America

About the Captain America slot machine

Given all the films featuring superheroes that have been successful on screens around the world, it is time for the heroes to step over to the world of slot machines. Captain America is a comic book hero from Marvel who, for obvious reasons, has always been more popular in the vast country of the west than in New Zealand. Still, given the movies about Captain America as well as The Avengers, in which he has a prominent role, he has become increasingly familiar to us Kiwis, and it is therefore fun to see that his slot machine has also found its way here.

From a technical perspective, this video slot is reasonably standard for modern offerings, featuring 5 reels and 3 rows. Its developer, Cryptologic, has managed to pack in a considerable 25 bet lines that crisscross the reels—a generous quantity by current standards. . . . However, even if you are the sort of player who prefers to minimize what you're putting at risk, you still have the option to raise your stakes significantly if you want to. The bet line minimums and maximums afford a very solid wager range of $ 0.5 to $ 125.

Symbols and functions

In this slot, the Wild symbol is none other than Captain America himself, depicted in a classic attack position. As with any Wild symbol in any game, this one can help you form winning combinations even if you don't have three or more of the standard symbols you need along a pay line. The Wild substitutes for the vast majority of other symbols and closes the gaps in your anyway-you-can arrangement of standard symbols. The upshot of this is that you're that much more likely to form combinations that give you victories, and the quantities of those victories can be fairly large.

In turn, the Scatter symbol is represented by the Captain America logo. The fact that this symbol is called a scatter means that it does not have to end up along any active bet line to pay out. If you get 2, 3, 4 or 5 scatters anywhere on the screen, you win respectively 1, 5, 15 or 100 times your bet. 3 or more scatters also give access to the bonus game.

In the bonus game, you are to target the aircraft that fly past on the screen. When you click on a plane, Captain America throws his signature Shield at it in order to turn the thing to shambles. When this is done, the screen displays a win; and if you manage to hit the plane marked "Red Skull," you will be rewarded with 15 free spins during which all wins are multiplied by 2.

The 3 jackpots that you also can win completely at random. The biggest of these can mean tens of thousands of dollars in profit, so if you manage to get this, it's time to Cork the foam and celebrate big.

Summary

One more well-made slot from Cryptologic is Captain America. If you like this hero in a jersey, you will like the slot machine, which is really well made and entertaining. With bonus games, free spins, a jackpot, and other goodies, there is nothing to complain about!

About the Captain America slot machine

Considering the many superhero films that have been successful on screens around the world, now seems to be the time for the heroes to crossover into the realm of slot machines. Captain America is a popular comic book character from Marvel, but for obvious reasons, he was always more of a popular figure in the vast country of the west and not so much here in New Zealand. However, given the many films about Captain America and the many movies he is in with The Avengers, he seems to be a figure we are all a bit more familiar with, and it is therefore super fun to see that Captain America has his own slot machine.

From a technical perspective, this is a fairly standard contemporary video slot, complete with its 5 reels and 3 rows. The developer Cryptologic has managed to fit in a rather nice 25 bet lines that crisscross the reels, but how many you want to use is, of course, your choice. More lines mean higher stakes, which is what you want in a gambling game, but they also mean better winning opportunities. You can also adjust how much you want to bet per bet line; the range is from $0.5 to $125. There you have it, two very good reasons to play this game.

Symbols and functions

In this slot, the Wild symbol is none other than Captain America himself, in his classic attack position. A Wild can help you clinch a victory even if you have 0, 1, or 2 of the other symbols along a bet line and no matching ones. Except for 2 symbols (more on those shortly), Wilds can substitute for the vast majority of other ones and close gaps in your combos. That means with Wilds, you're more likely to win, and win big.

The Captain America logo symbol, in turn, is represented by the Scatter. The fact that this symbol is called a scatter means that it does not have to end up along any active bet line to pay out. If you get 2, 3, 4, or 5 scatters anywhere on the screen, you win respectively 1, 5, 15, or 100 times your bet. 3 or more scatters also give access to the bonus game.

In the bonus game, you have to try to hit the planes that fly by on the screen. When you click on a plane, Captain America hurls his famous Shield at it, with explosive results. If you see a win on the screen after that, then you've done your job. Hitting the Red Skull planet also means 15 free spins, with all wins multiplied by 2.

To wrap things up, there are the 3 jackpots that you can win totally at random. If you get one of these, especially the big one, you are looking at a potential profit of tens of thousands of dollars. If you manage to wrangle that huge amount, it is definitely time to celebrate big and pop the Champagne.

Summary

Another well-made slot from Cryptologic is Captain America. If you like this hero in a jersey, you will enjoy the slot machine, which is really well made and entertaining. With bonus games, free spins, and other goodies like jackpots, there is nothing to complain about!
