Fantastic Four 50 Lines

Fantastic1

Like you might’ve guessed already, this Fantastic Four version is the 50 line game, the other one offering only 20 lines. This 5 reel slot was created by Playtech, with an official license that allows them to use the Fantastic 4 brand. The game’s design has a strong focus on the blue color, used as an overlay for the background image and for the color of the reels as well. It’s an attractive design nonetheless, with the symbols being a mix of characters from the comics and playing cards. The features focus on free spins, with scatters and wilds as special symbols.

Graphics & Theme

The design is pleasant overall, with a modern touch to it and with the quality of the symbols being on the high side. There isn’t much to look at outside of the reel area, with the city being barely visible thanks to the blue semi-transparent layer placed on top of it. The four symbols that represent the Fantastic Four don’t show us the same faces that you might be used to seeing if you only saw the movie, so I assume they’re mostly based on the comics. The logo of the game and Earth serve as the next two symbols, with another six being simple playing cards. The design is OK for the most part, but it feels like they tried to hurry it along instead of spending some time and using more details/related symbols.

Special Effects

The game logo, with the 4 surrounded by a metallic band, is used as the wild feature. The only symbol it can’t substitute for is the scatter, but other than that it can help the player get any other combination going. The wild has the added benefit that it offers cash prizes, starting at 40x and going up to 10,000x (the jackpot of the slot).

The scatter symbol is the other major feature, with Planet Earth representing it in this case. Getting multiple scatter symbols in the game, no matter in what position, will result in a round of free games with some extra benefits.

There are a total of 12 free games that are awarded when 3+ scatters appear. These free spins have additional features inside, triggered whenever the 3rd reel is covered by a stacked symbol with one of the heroes. Depending on the character that shows up in that position, you will get either Mr. Fantastic (4 additional spins with this character as an expanding wild), Invisible Woman (4 extra spins with a bigger multiplier), Human Torch (4 extra spins, 1st reel locked with the Human Torch symbol and extra symbols with this character) and The Thing (3 extra spins and locked wild when The Thing character shows up).

Overall

The game’s features and free spins do make up for the lack of interest in the design that Playtech has shown here, and the payouts are quite good as well. True fans of the comics might be disappointed by the graphics they find inside though.
