The Silver Surfer is a fictional character, a superhero appearing in comic books and other publications by Marvel Comics. Originally a young astronomer named Norrin Radd on the planet Zenn-La, he saved his homeworld from the planet devourer, Galactus, by serving as his herald. Imbued in return with a tiny portion of Galactus's Power Cosmic, Radd acquired vast power, a new body and a surfboard-like craft on which he could travel faster than light. Now known as the Silver Surfer, Radd roamed the cosmos searching for planets for Galactus to consume. For those of you who haven't read the Marvel comic books, you may have encountered the Silver Surfer in the recent “Fantasic Four” movie.
“Silver Surfer” is a 5-reel, 9-payline slot from Cryptologic. Based on Marvel comic books it features original graphics well-known for all Mervel comics enthusiasts. The game focuses on the Silver Surfer’s early origin story rather than his subsequent adventures on earth. The reels are full of delicious looking planets for Galactus to eat, as well as many other cool symbols such as the Silver Surfer logo, the silver board, big meteors, the evil Galactus himself, Silver Surfer, stars, a supernova of some kind, and other cool stuff. You will see some simple animations when a winning combination is formed and you will hear some nice sound effects.
The game has a few interesting special features that will increase your chances of hitting a nice win. These include Wilds, Scatters and a Re-spin feature with Expanding Wilds.
Silver Surfer is Wild and can substitute for other symbols on the reels, except for Scatters. This symbol can appear only on reels 2 and 4 and when it appears on these two reels at the same time and Galactus doesn’t appear anywhere on reel 3, the Re-spin feature will be triggered. Silver Surfer will expand to cover all three positions on both triggering reels and substitute for other symbols, except for Scatters. The Re-spin feature will continue until Galactus appears anywhere on the third reel.
The Scatter in shape of the game logo will award you with nice prizes if at least 2 such symbols appear anywhere on the reels.
“Silver Surfer” is linked to three progressive jackpots: Hero Jackpot, Super Hero Jackpot and the biggest Marvel Hero Jackpot. These Marvel Jackpots are awarded randomly, so you don’t need any matching symbols to win them. However remember that the size of the wager determines the chance of winning a jackpot. In other words, the bigger your bet, the more chances you have to win one of the jackpots.
All in all, “Silver Surfer” is a nice game that will satisfy not only fans of Marvel comic books. It looks good, has a few special features and offers decent prizes. Give it a go and see yourself how fun it may be!
