The Dark Knight is Microgaming's progressive slot based on the movie of the same name, featuring everyone's favorite hero Batman, played by Christian Bale in the movie. The game doesn't seem to be available on Microgaming casinos anymore for some reason, which is a shame, because The Dark Knight certainly has a large audience that would enjoy taking a bash at getting Gotham City rid of crime.

Graphics & Theme

The Dark Knight slot is entirely inspired by the movie, so you will encounter familiar faces on the reels, from Batman himself to Joker, bat signals, and more. The game features a dark atmosphere that’s only fitting for the valiant protector of Gotham City.

Wins are accompanied by nice animations and cut-scenes coming straight from the movie as well as well-known quotations, so fans of the Dark Knight will certainly enjoy the experience to the fullest. Although the game was released some years ago, it has graphics and sound effects that are on par with modern-day video slots.

Gameplay

The Dark Knight is a 243-ways to win slot, so you only need to have matching symbols on consecutive reels, regardless of their positions. One of the more interesting in-game features are the Wild reels which can activate at any time, seriously increasing your winning chances.

The Free Spins bonus round is triggered by landing three or more Joker symbols anywhere on the reels. During 15 free spins, all wins are doubled and the bonus game can be retriggered.

One of the biggest attractions of The Dark Knight slot was the progressive jackpot, which seeded at $1,000,000. Apart from the main jackpot, players could also win three smaller ones. However, Microgaming withdrew the game from their portfolio in 2016 and as far as we know, there are sadly no plans to bring it back.
