Hollywood is an excellent source of inspiration for game developers – there are many games based on box office hits and fan favorite movies which have become a hit themselves. The online casino industry is using hit movies as an inspiration for their slots as well. Many people play the slots to win some money, but others are just there for the mindless fun they certainly offer. Take a look at the top 5 movie-inspired slots:
The Dark Knight
The second part in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy was a huge hit, ranking among the highest grossing movies ever made. It starred Christian Bale as Batman, Gary Oldman as James Gordon and an unforgettable performance by the late Heath Ledger as the Joker. The slot has a dark aesthetic, just like the film and hits all its heights as well. There’s also a nice jackpot which will make you feel like billionaire Bruce Wayne if you win it all.
Scarface
Brian De Palma’s classic starred the great Al Pacino as Tony Montana, a Cuban immigrant who climbs the ranks in a drug cartel which ultimately leads to his demise. The film became a cult hit and is ranked high on the lists of top movies ever made. The slot inspired by the movie has Tony Montana and his little friend in the starring roles as well as a mini shoot-out game that will certainly leave you satisfied.
Rocky
The Silvester Stallone classic-inspired slot is based on one of the favorite movie characters of all time. The Rocky series did great at the box office, with the latest entry Creed even snatching up an Oscar nomination for Stallone in the best supporting role. Sly didn’t win it, but it ultimately wouldn’t matter as the film did great at the box office. The slot features everyone’s favorite movie boxer and some of the other beloved characters and has a hefty jackpot as well. It even features the classic music theme from the first franchise as well as Mr. T’s iconic “Hey fool! You ready for another beating?” line.
Daredevil
Thanks to Netflix’s hugely popular TV series, Daredevil has once again hit the spotlight in the comic book world. The series was surely a breath of fresh air after the failed 2003 movie starring Ben Affleck as the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen on which the slot is based. It features all the main characters including Bullseye, where players can assign a bullseye on a specific spot in order to win a bonus. You may hate the film, but the slot is actually pretty good.
Gladiator
When it debuted, the Gladiator slot was groundbreaking in terms of incorporating the film’s plot into the gameplay. The slot has many high-quality clips from the Ridley Scott classic and beautifully rendered sets that allow players to experience the life of Maximus Decimus Meridius, the film’s protagonist played by fan favorite Russell Crowe. Even though it’s older than a decade, the slot has a huge fan base and isn’t showing signs of aging.
