If you are a Marvel comic fan, or just a nostalgic slots lover searching for superhero themed slots like The Incredible Hulk, The Avengers, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor or Spiderman, you may be sad to know that these branded slots games are no longer available since 2017.

Disney acquired Marvel in 2009 and discontinued any licensing agreements which elapsed in order to disassociate themselves with any gambling ties and retain their reputation as a “family entertainment business”. But that is not the end of the story for Marvel Slots…

How “Age of the Gods™” slot series came to be

Playtech.com, the world’s largest supplier of online gaming software, took the business decision to re-skin their existing marvel themed games into their own in-house brand known as “ Age of the Gods™”. This is how their “Age of the Gods Slots Series” came to be.

So for example, The Avengers rebranded to Age of the Gods and Fantastic Four re-branded to Age of the Gods: Furious Four, and the Iron Man 2 title becoming “the Age of the Gods: King of Olympus”. As their own brands gained popularity Playtech expanded their series into the live casino games and Bingo verticals with Age of the Gods™ Roulette and Age of the Gods Bingo.

If you are into Greek mythology and want to give these slots a spin, here’s a few of them below.

Age of the Gods Slot

Age of the Gods is a 5-reel, 20-line slot game based on the Greek Gods – Zeus, Poseidon, Hercules, Athena, Aphrodite and Hades. If you don’t know who’s who in Greek mythology here’s a brief introduction to each one.

Zeus is known as the king of the gods, the ruler of Mount Olympus. He controls the upper world and is also known as the god of the sky, weather, thunder, lightning, law, order, and justice.

Poseidon is known as the god of the sea and waters and is often depicted with a Trident. He controls all things water, so rivers, floods, droughts and earthquakes. Poseidon is the brother of Zeus and Hades.

Hercules is the son of Zeus and known for his great strength and masculinity. He’s a greek hero and a champion of the Olympian order against chthonic monsters.

Athena is known as the goddess of war and wisdom and is usually depicted with an owl. She represents intelligence, skill, peace, warfare, battle strategy and arts. She is the daughter of Zeus but according to most traditions no mother bore her, she sprang from Zeus’s head full-grown and clothed in armor.

Hades is known as the king of the Underworld, ruler of all human souls and he is often portrayed with his three-headed guard dog Cerberus. He is the brother of Zeus and Poseidon, who together rid of their father and the rest of the Titans, so they could control the universe themselves.

Age of the Gods slot comes packed with fun features including a feature called the Pantheon of Power which pays out 200x your line bet when you land all 5 God symbols in any order on an active payline. This slot game has 4 free game modes, one for each god, Zeus, Athena, Poseidon and Hercules (but not Hades). To make this slot and all the rest of the series of the Age of Gods more enticing, they come with 4 progressive jackpots which are all pooled between each other for larger payouts.

Age of the Gods: Furious Four

Age of the Gods: Furious Four is a 5-reel, 20-line slot game based on the immortal mythical powers of four ancient Greek gods, Atlas, Pandora, Hephaestus and Apollo. Here’s a brief introduction about each one.

Atlas represents the Age of endurance and is often depicted carrying the world (literally). The myth goes that Zeus forced him to bear the heavens upon his shoulders as a punishment for siding with the Titans in their war against Zeus and the Olympians.

Apollo was the son of Zeus and represents the Age of Light. Apollo was one of the Twelve Olympians and was known as the god for healing, medicine, archery, music and poetry. He is often depicted holding a bow and arrow.

Pandora represents the Age of Curiosity. She was the first woman to be created by Hephaestus on the instructions of Zeus. Once Hephaestus created her, the Olympian gods completed her with their gifts such as clothes, jewellery, knowledge etc in fact Hermes gave her name, Pandora meaning “All gifted”.

Hephaestus represents the Age of Fire and is often depicted with a hammer in his hand. He is known as the god of blacksmiths, metalworking, carpenters, craftsmen, artisans, sculptors, metallurgy, fire and volcanoes. He was also a son of Zeus.
