We all know that Spider-Man can do whatever a spider can, but now he can do whatever a pokie can too. This officially licensed Marvel slot has it all – crisp graphics, plenty of bonus games, a healthy progressive jackpot and bags of style.

Fortunately, there's no need to get bitten by a radioactive spider before you can start playing. Just fire the game up at your favourite casino, place your line bet and start spinning those reels.

In what we think is a smart move, the creators of this slot have chosen to base the game on the original Spider-Man comic books rather than one of the movie releases of recent years.

By using comic book style reel icons including the Daily Bugle, cameras, Mary Jane, the Green Goblin and Spider-Man himself rather than movie actors like Andrew Garfield or Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst, this slot has ensured that it won't look dated in a few years.

Right now, it looks just the opposite – an attractive night skyline, stylish visuals/typography and smooth animations mean that Spider-Man: Attack of The Green Goblin looks simply fantastic. A beautiful 3D rendering of Spider-Man also hangs around (sorry, bad pun) the reels to spice up the action.

With 25 paylines and a randomly triggered progressive thrown into the mix, Spider-Man: Attack of The Green Goblin plays in a very similar way to other licensed Marvel slots like Iron Man 3.

The total bet is a little higher than in Iron Man 3, with players able to wager over 100 AUD per spin, so high rollers will prefer this one. But even those with a more modest bankroll will enjoy the game's five bonus rounds, including one that offers (hypothetically) unlimited free spins.

There's a healthy mix of bonus mini-games and free spins rounds that help to keep the action feeling fresh, and it's not unusual to walk away from a round of free games with winnings in excess of 100x your line bet.

Pokies either have that certain X factor that keeps playing exciting, even during standard play, or they don't. We think Spider-Man: Attack of The Green Goblin just has that special something that gives a game lasting appeal, and can easily see why it's become so popular with Aussie players.

In addition to all five dedicated bonus features, plus two that occasionally spring up on the reels to help players out, there's a random progressive jackpot that you could win at any time. It's a good thing in our book any time hundreds of thousands of AUD are up for grabs, and that's no exception here.

While there's no denying that standard play is a lot of fun, this game is all about the bonus features. It's pretty unlikely that you'll walk away with a big cash prize unless you get lucky in one (or more!) of these bonus rounds.

As long as you have no problem accepting that fact, then we think that Spider-Man: Attack of The Green Goblin will be a surefire hit with most Australian online pokies fans.

Spider-Man's visuals really are spectacular, so this is a great game for fans of Spidey or comic books in general as well as higher rollers who want to splash more cash on a Marvel slot than Iron Man 3 allows. Plus, there's a great mix of bonus features (including a round of free spins) as well as standard AND progressive jackpots to keep players interested. Unfortunately, big wins during standard play can be few and far between even with the game's 25 paylines, so you really are chasing jackpots with this one. That's not necessarily a bad thing though, and we think most players will have a lot of fun playing this title.
