Cryptologic offers a greater variety of online slot games than other software providers. Also the different types of slots games are properly classified and grouped into different categories so as to make it convenient for online casino players. In the games menu under Slot Machines, the standard video slots are classified according to number of paylines. The number of paylines range from 9 to 50+. Then there are the All Pays online slots with 243 paylines. However, it is the other groups that are more interesting and are the focus of this article.

The Casual Game category has six slot machines. These are based on popular games like Bejeweled, Jenga and Sudoku. These games are interesting because they are not structured in the usual reels and rows format. They are structured according to the game they represent. Bejeweled has a 5x5 matrix format in which paylines can be formed by like symbols appearing adjacent to each other either horizontally or vertically. Another feature of Bejeweled is that symbols in winning paylines disappear and fresh ones take their place. Jenga has a tower of blocks. Sudoku is organized like a 9x9 Sudoku matrix with paylines running not only horizontally and vertically but also as 3x3 matrices within the larger structure.

Crazy Jackpots has two titles, Cleo Queen of Egypt and Conan the Barbarian. These are 9 paylines slot games, but each payline has its independent progressive jackpot that can be hit separately without affecting the jackpot amounts of other paylines. Rapid Fire Jackpots have a completely different type of progressive jackpot. These jackpots are hit randomly after any spin without there being the need to get like symbols on an active payline. There are ten thematic slots machines in Rapid Fire Jackpots and these are great fun even without the jackpots. The progressive jackpots in both these categories hit very frequently and therefore do not rise to life-changing amounts.

Next are the groups of branded slots categories beginning with Marvel Jackpot. There are 17 online slots based on Marvel Comics super heroes like Spiderman, Hulk and Iron Man. These slot machines are a perennial source of enjoyment for those familiar with these super hero tales, because they alone can decipher the full meaning of the symbols used. The symbols depict the source of the hero’s super power, his favorite weapons and accessories and his enemies and friends. The bonus games are also related to the super hero’s activities. All the slot games in the Marvel Jackpot category are networked to a three-tier progressive jackpot.

After the agreement with Marvel Comics expired then Cryptologic signed up with rival DC Comics. There five titles in this category featuring evergreen characters like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. The essential nature of these games is similar to the Marvel Slots. These slots do not offer any progressive jackpot but have a feature called Bonus Bet. For an additional stake the players allow for the chance to play a lucrative bonus game on the second screen.

Another group of branded slots is Paramount Jackpot. These are based on popular Paramount movies and incorporate clips of some important scenes from the movies. The titles covered are Braveheart, Ferris Bueller and Forrest Gump. The symbols are important characters and accessories from the movies and the bonus games are also based on events from the movies. Paramount Jackpot slots are networked to a five-tier progressive jackpot network.

All these slots can be played at Cryptologic online casinos like InterCasino, but the best ones have also been licensed by independent casinos like Virgin Casino.
