As you can tell from the title, Superman II is a sequel to an already existing online slot game by software manufacturer Playtech, and as it happens it’s also based on the second Superman movie of 1980. It also features many of the actors from the original motion picture, including Gene Hackman, Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve, among others. As far as the graphics go, they may not be the fanciest but they’re very reminiscent of the film itself, and in the backdrop you can see the city of Metropolis where all of the action takes place. This leads us to some of the other symbols you will see on the reels, featuring the lower value playing cards from A to J, as well as a pair of glasses and the notorious kryptonite.

The layout in Superman II is quite conventional, though. It features the common grid of 5 reels and 3 rows, and with them come a total of 25 paylines. These paylines are also fixed, so you will not have the opportunity to regulate them, and therefore the minimum bet in this title will set you back some 25p per single spin. The maximum bet, on the other hand, takes off and soars up to £500 per spin.

Special Features

Superman II boasts an array of different special features, and one of them, in particular, is randomly triggered. This is the Superman Wild Feature, which can take place at any point during gameplay. Once active, it will see Superman fly across the screen, turning from 2 to 4 random symbols into Wilds.

Besides the abundance of bonuses there are the 4 Progressive Jackpots to look forward to, as well. The chance to win one of them is awarded fully at random, although you will have a higher chance of this happening if you play at a higher stake. Another pick me game will follow, which will award you one of the progressives.

Wild

The Wild symbol can appear in any position, anywhere on the five reels. It is the most lucrative symbol in the game, offering payouts of up to 5,000 times your line bet. In addition to that, it can substitute for all of the other symbols to help complete winning combinations. That is, however, with the exception of the game’s Scatter symbol.

Daily Planet Headline Bonus

The Scatter symbol appearing simultaneously on reels 1, 3 and 5 triggers the Daily Planet Headline Bonus, and this is where you actually get to randomly select one of the five available bonus features to play.

  • First up is the Battle For Metropolis Feature. This is a pick me game, which can award you cash prizes, X-rays, and kryptonite. If you land an X-ray, it will reveal all of the cash prizes and if you land on kryptonite, then the feature will end.
  • There’s also the Phantom Zone Feature which gives you unlimited freespins with a Phantom Zone square on each spin. In addition, each spin will also give you multipliers, explosives, and S symbols that will cancel them out.
  • Another feature is the Skylight Fight. It will award you a total of 10 freespins with an initial 1x multiplier. If you land Superman on reel 3, this will stop the freespins count, and if you land more instances of that symbol this will increase the multiplier.
  • There are also the X-Ray Vision Freespins to consider, which give you 15 freespins; and if throughout their duration you land an X symbol on reel 3 it will turn into a Wild. Furthermore, it will also add extra Wilds to reels 2 and 4.
  • Last but not least is the Lois and Clark Bonus symbol. Like the first of the features we covered, this one will also provide you with a pick me game. Your goal in it will be to uncover 5 matching colors to reveal your prize.
