As with most 243 ways slots you do not have to bet on individual lines. Instead a 30 coin bet activates all ways to win. If you want you can bet up to 10 coins per way for a 300 coin max bet. At most casinos the game comes in only the 0.01 and 0.02 coin sizes.

The first thing you notice when you start playing The Dark Knight are the Cinematic Spins where on each spin the background turns into a short clip fro the film. While this does look impressive we found that it distracted a bit too much from the main event on the reels. Good to see that you can switch the Cinematic Spins off via he Options Menu.
The Batman logos are wild are are stacked on all five reels. Top line pay is 400 coins for either five Batman Logos or five Batman symbols on an active line. While this is clearly not a huge jackpot on one line you can get a whole screen of wild Logos. This gives you a much more impressive 97,200 coin win.
After the two ways to hit for 400 coins the next highest pays are 350 coins for five Bruce Wayne symbols followed by 300 coins for five Joker symbols. From there the rest of the way wins come in at between 250 and 60 coins. Again the stacked wilds mean you can get the same wins on a lot of ways per spin.
During the base game and the free spin, Batman or the Joker can appear to award a range of special bonuses. The bonus are as follows;

The Joker Graffiti symbols are the scatters and are the key to winning the free spins. Get three or more and you win 15 free spins with a starting multiplier of X2. During the free games the Joker or Batman can appear to award more free games, additional multipliers or one of the various extra bonuses.
Maximum multiplier is X5 and the free spins cannot be re-triggered even if you hit the scatters on the feature. At the highest multiplier a full screen of wild Batman logos pays a very nice 486,000 coin pay for the lowest bet level and a huge 4,860,000 coin win if you're playing the max of 10 coins per spin.
At any time when playing The Dark Knight you can be awarded the Mega Moolah Bonus. Once triggered you move to a second screen stage where you can select either Batman or the Joker (Preview).
