What we think about Cleopatra?

“Very, very few slots are popular enough to spawn a hit series, and Cleopatra was arguably the first.”

Is Cleopatra right for you?

Cleopatra slots have been a mainstay of the online slots world since the first game it was released in 2012, and even after the release of other IGT slots like Cleopatra 2, Cleopatra Diamond Spins, MegaJackpots Cleopatra and many others, this one’s still thrilling slots fans the world over.

As the Cleopatra slot machine has 20 variable win lines, you’ll have to choose how many lines to play first, as well as your line bet amount. You can play 1, 5, 9 15 or 20 win lines, and bet between 1p and £10 per line.

It goes without saying (but I’ll say it anyway!) that Cleopatra is an Egyptian slot and the genre and iconic design are very much part of its appeal.

From the ornate middle eastern lettering for the low value symbols to iconic symbols such as scarabs, ankhs and Egyptian gods found in the likes of Eye of Horus, Cleopatra may have been overtaken by more modern video slots, but I give it huge credit for being one of the first to establish the Egyptian slot category.

Features

Wild symbol

Cleopatra herself acts as the Wild symbol, substituting for all other symbols except the scatter. If you hit a win using the Wild, it will be doubled. She is also the most valuable symbol, with 2 earning you 10 coins and 5 of them awards the game’s 10,000 coin jackpot.

Cleopatra Bonus

Here, the sphinx is the bonus symbol. Land 3 anywhere on the reels to trigger the Free Spins bonus feature. You start with 15 Cleopatra Free Spins, and any wins are tripled.

You can also retrigger more Free Spins if you hit 3 or more scatters, up to a maximum of 180 Free Spins. During the bonus game, sphinxes also pay additional instant wins, with 2, 3, 4 or 5 sphinxes earning you 2x, 5x, 20x or 100x.

Other games like this

There are 8 Cleopatra online slots in IGT’s iconic series, so there are loads of alternatives if you love the theme but want to explore some other features.

Cleopatra Diamond Spins

Clone the original Cleopatra slot game, add 3 progressive jackpots and this is what you get. Spin 3 diamond symbols to enter the Diamond Spins Bonus, a respins feature with multipliers of up to 10x plus the Grand, Major and Mini jackpots are up for grabs.

Cleopatra MegaJackpots

Play exactly the same Cleopatra online slot but with the added bonus of the chance to win IGT’s epic progressive jackpot. When I was playing this game recently, the jackpot was a whopping £800,000.

Eye of Horus

For another top Egyptian slot to suggest, it was a toss-up between Book of Dead and Eye of Horus, two giants of the genre. Although Book of Dead is the slot you get 50 Free Spins for with your OJO welcome bonus, I’m choosing Eye of Horus. It’s a direct competitor to Cleopatra with its own incredible bonus feature.

My verdict

Cleopatra is an award-winning slot that has maintained its popularity for over a decade since it was made. It’s hard to put a finger on the reason why. Maybe it just came first before the thousands of copies. Maybe it’s the combination of 2X Wild wins and 3X Free Spins wins.

Whatever it is, you can’t really call yourself a slots player unless you’ve at least given it a spin. Try the Cleopatra demo or pony up the dosh from 1p per spin.

If you’re up for trying this or any of PlayOJO’s 5,000 online slots, you can get free spins on a top slot when you make your 1st deposit (terms apply).
