If there’s one gaming developer out there who knows how to create superb slots adaptations, it’s NetEnt. Whether we’re talking hit TV shows, plays or top films, the Swedish iGaming maestros know just how to deliver the goods. But with so many incredible movie slots adaptations available in NetEnt’s catalogue, is it possible to pick a winner? In an epic match-off we pit Planet of the Apes against Vikings to see if it is possible to have just one movie-slot champion. Game on!

Fighting For Slot Supremacy

Planet of the Apes is a 10 reel, 40 payline slot that lets us enjoy two films – Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes across two different play areas. We get a troop of bonus features, Free Spins for both films and a Dual feature which combines the two. As well as the chance to win up to 20,000 coins in the base game alone, we’re treated with cinematic clips from the films themselves. Blockbuster action at its best.

But then, as every top slot developer does, NetEnt innovated and raised the bar. The studio’s Vikings slot starts out as a five reel, 243 Ways to Win slot but can expand to a seven reel, 78,125 Ways to Win slot! And as that happens we take advantage of the Raid Free Spins as we join the warriors on an epic conquest. Fan favourites Ragnar, Lagertha, Bjorn and Floki all make appearances as high paying symbols, and the ominous background music prepares us for battle. Using the three Hotspots during the Raid Spins, we can win up to 10,000 times our stake, just proving how the Vikings conquer more than the apes.

Sailing Away For Slots Wins

Whether we want to enjoy apes making a break for themselves and declaring supremacy, or Vikings conquering the world, both of NetEnt’s titles give us the chance to enjoy a sense of victory. Though with its ever-growing portfolio of adaptation slots, surely NetEnt is the real victor here? Not really. It’s us.
