MICROGAMING LICENCES COMIC BOOK HERO HELLBOY
15 January 2010
Iconic action hero goes online today
The Isle of Man-based online gambling software provider
Microgaming today launches its latest flagship video
slot, HELLBOY.
Licensed from Dark Horse Comics,
the game introduces the iconic action hero to the world
of online slots. Created by Mike Mignola, Hellboy is
popular with fans, appearing in comic books, DVDs and on
the big screen.
The theme has been faithfully
translated into a new five reel, 20 pay-line video slot,
with a comic book style of presentation. The game
features original characters such as Professor Trevor
Brutenholm, Johann Krause, Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman and a
host of others, all led by the stone-fisted and
de-horned red demon, Hellboy.
Roger Raatgever,
Microgaming CEO, says: “At Microgaming we believe in
coupling appropriate branded content with high-quality,
original games. We continually introduce pioneering,
state of the art games to our customers and Hellboy is
no exception. We’re sure that players will enjoy the
rich visuals and comic book style action, combined with
Microgaming’s innovative game play. We are delighted to
be announcing the launch of this iconic branded game.”
Anita Nelson, Vice President of Sales, Marketing and
Licensing at Dark Horse, commented: “We are thrilled to
be associated with Microgaming, a top quality gaming
company. Hellboy has a legion of loyal fans and the new
slot game faithfully recreates the Hellboy world that
they know and love. Hellboy is one of our most popular
brands and we know that the players will appreciate this
cutting edge game. “
Hellboy features as the
Wild, helping players to win rewarding combinations by
substituting other symbols; whilst his oversized stone
fist is the Scatter, which triggers the thoroughly
entertaining Underworld Bonus. This is a four-level,
second screen bonus feature where players have to avoid
blocked tunnels in the search for other team members and
rewards, encountering beasts along the way.
Players who complete all four levels and reach the
Chamber of Fire get the added rewards of the Relic of
Power. This exciting feature can also be triggered in
Supermode, a randomly awarded Free Spin bonus of ten
spins which carry up to three held Wilds.
There
is also a Gamble feature where wins can be doubled or
quadrupled if the correct card suit or colour is
predicted. The betting range on Hellboy offers something
for every player, ranging from 0.01 to 0.25 with a
maximum bet of 50.00, which can generate rewards of up
to 25,000.00 in the base game, the same on Free Spins
and 8,400.00 on bonuses.
