We have had hundreds of Sci-Fi movies from almost every possible genre of science fiction imaginable in the last 70 years of cinema, because it’s a genre that the audience simply can’t get enough of. From Star Trek and Star Wars to Aliens Vs. Predators; it’s astonishing how many cinematic universes have been created over the years.

Admittedly, they were not all good because it’s hard to forget (not for the lack of trying!) about disasters like Battlefield Earth, Mars Needs Women and Highlander II: The Quickening. Nevertheless, there were also gems like Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, The Matrix and of course, Alien, to name just a few. No genre is perfect, and the number of good science fiction movies far outweighs the poor ones.

As one would expect from a movie genre that’s so popular and prevalent throughout the past and present of cinema, the sci-fi films have also created a number of spinoff TV series and of course, sci-fi slots. They are not all equal, similar to the movies that inspired the developers, so to help you make the most of your time, here’s a list of the best sci-fi slot games that were inspired by science fiction movies.

Planet of the Apes by NetEnt

A game created by NetEnt, and based on the modern Planet of the Apes cinematic universe, this is one of the most popular ones in the genre to come out in the last few years. There are actual movie locations recreated within the game for the background environments, which change according to the stage you are playing at.

There are 5 reels and 3-rows, complete with bonus symbols, wild cards, scatter symbols, 20 pay lines and some unique features such as Stacked Wild and Dual Reels. It’s cool to see the actors and the CGI characters (including Caesar himself) showing up on screen as various symbols!

Nemo’s Voyage by WMS

Now, this one by WMS is not exactly based on any particular movie, but it is one that is built around the legend of Captain Nemo and his futuristic submarine Nautilus. There are 40 pay lines, 5 reels and 4 rows in Nemo’s Voyage.

There has been a whole range of Sci-Fi and action movies featuring Captain Nemo, so Nemo’s Voyage definitely deserves at least a mention. There is however, another reason why it’s on this list though. Unlike the others on this list, Nemo’s Voyage is listed on Gambling Metropolis as one of the insanely high RTP slots, with a staggering 99% RTP! After all, we play slots to win at the end of the day, and any slot that has an RTP (Return to Player) rate of 99% is certainly worth checking out first.

Jurassic World by Microgaming

Microgaming is one of the most well-known casino game developers, and Jurassic World is one of the developer’s more recent releases in the sci-fi movie themed slots genre.

Alongside the various dinosaurs seen in the movie, even Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard show up as symbols within the game, which is what you expect from a fully licensed, movie inspired slot game.

With 243 win-lines, the game does give the player a lot of opportunity to win, and there are actually three separate bonuses, known as Gyrosphere Valley, Creation Lab and Raptor Den, offering ten free spins each.

Highlander by Microgaming

Do you remember that disaster of a movie we mentioned in the intro, called Highlander 2: The Quickening? Well, thankfully, Highlander Online Slot isn’t based on that film! The slot is based on the original, which was a cult hit and has a fan following till date.

Just like Jurassic World, Highlander Online Slot is fully licensed. You will see the actual actors and actresses from the movie, representing various symbols in the game. It features 243 win-lines, 3 rows and 5 reels. There are all the regular features expected from a slot game like this, but each time the screen is struck by lightning during a special bonus round, you will get a quick dose of nostalgia, alongside turning more and more regular symbols to wild symbols of course!

Terminator 2 by Microgaming

Microgaming is well known for making movie-based games, so it’s no surprise that we are seeing the developer’s name all over the list. Terminator 2: Judgement Day was a milestone in the sci-fi movie genre, so it had to make it onto this list.

Typical of Microgaming movie slots, the 5-reel, 3 row slot game actually has 243 win-lines, instead of the traditional 20-40 pay lines we see in other games. The iconic background music and the special effects will have you hooked in no time.

There are of course, plenty of other sci-fi slots out there as well, and there’s no harm in checking them out on your own either. Use your new player casino bonuses or free trials to check the games out, before you spend actual money on them.
