Play The Dark Knight Trilogy for Free

The Dark Knight Trilogy by IGT features three different sets of reels on screen at once, one for each film in the series. Both the Batman Begins and Dark Knight sets have a traditional five reel setup, while The Dark Knight Rises uses six reels instead. While this is a low limit game that fits into the category of penny slots, it’ll still cost you a bit to play: the minimum bet is 150 coins, while the maximum is 450, meaning you can spend up to $4.50 per spin. Since this game has yet to be released to online casinos, there is no play for free version available at this time.

On a basic level, the object of the game is just like any other slot you’ve ever played. Players will want to match identical symbols across the 150 paylines (50 on each set of reels) in order to collect prizes. All of the reels offer up the same low level prize winning icons: card ranks from jacks through aces. For bigger wins, you can match any of the many characters that appear throughout these reels, not only including the heroes, but also villains like Two-Face and Bane. These characters exist in extended symbol form, meaning they can cover an entire reel at once.

There are a few different special features that can be triggered in this game. For instance, beyond just getting standard wild symbols, it’s also possible for the top two areas to transfer some to the bottom set of reels. That occurs whenever three or more full reels of a major character appear in a row on one of the five-reel sections. At this point, a full set of three reels will land somewhere on The Dark Knight Rises. They will also feature a 2x multiplier on all of the winning combinations they took part in.

There are also two different sets of free spins games. The Battle for Gotham City bonus awards five free spins whenever a special bat signal appears anywhere on each of the three play areas during the same spin. During these spins, it is possible to trigger additional free plays, and you’ll often see symbols transform into one of the game’s four main villains: The Joker, Bane, Scarecrow, and Two-Face. This is important, as hitting of the same villain in a row will count as a “target acquired.” At the end of the bonus, you’ll get additional credits based on how many times each villain was acquired. Capture them enough, and you can even earn their progressive jackpots. The Joker awards the biggest prizes of all, though you’ll need to acquire him five times in order to earn his jackpot.

Should you find at least six bonus symbols on either of the top two games (individually – the total is not cumulative), you’ll trigger The Fire Rises, which will earn you 10 free spins. It is possible to trigger this game on both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight at the same time, with each special round then resolving individually. This feature offers stacked wilds on the top two screens that can be transferred down to the bottom game, along with large multipliers that can lead to truly incredible payouts.

The Dark Knight Trilogy video slot is one of the more dynamic and visually impressive slots we’ve seen on casino floors in a long time. It’s truly a feast for the senses, and for some gamblers, it might even be a bit of an overload. It can be difficult to keep track of everything that’s going on at some points, though in reality, the game isn’t all that complicated: when in doubt, getting a lot of the same symbols means you’ll win some real cash, as always.

For fans of Batman, this game is a can’t miss hit that you’ll have to see to believe. For more general casino audiences, we think this machine will also go over well. It might be a bit too complex for those who are very casual players, but most experienced slots players should be able to pick up on the flow of the gameplay before too long, and the myriad of bonus features will keep even the most demanding gamblers entertained for a very long time.
