Yggdrasil Gaming has launched its new slot game, Super Heroes, alongside a special comic book which outlines the story of the heroes, and a network tournament worth a total of €25,000.
The 5×3 slot game, which features an audio and visual layer with cinematic music and full character voice-overs, takes place in an apocalyptic setting where alien overlords are attempting to take over the world.
Six unique super heroes, each holding a special super power including wild reels, mystery wins and win multipliers, can appear at random during any spin. When the feature is triggered, two of the heroes appear on each side of the screen to boost winnings. During free spins, heroes are triggered on every spin, with their super powers growing stronger each time.
As part of the new-slot launch, Yggdrasil Gaming has commissioned a special comic book that tells the story of the heroes and outlines their special powers. Meanwhile the operator will also host a €25,000 network tournament between 28th October and 6th November featuring its in-game leaderboard, in-play raffle and re-watch tools.
Jonas Strandman, Head of Gaming at Yggdrasil, said: “The idea behind Super Heroes was to create a blockbuster slots title with graphics and animations that really make the player feel they are a part of the game. We are rolling out the red carpet for this launch, with a special comic book and network campaign tournament that will get players as excited about this new slot as we are.”
Yggdrasil’s portfolio already contains a wide range of popular casino games, including Double Dragons, Big Blox and Monkey King. Super Heroes will support both BRAG, the social media tool which allows customers to watch replays of winning spins and share them on social media, and the in-game promotional tool BOOST™, which gives operators’ the power to boost engagement and retention.
