Cleo - Queen of Egypt is a 5 reel video slot from Cryptologic, a gaming designer which knows a thing or two about themed slots. This slot breaks the mold by offering just 9 pay lines, instead Crypto has opted for 9 ‘crazy jackpots’ which are displayed down the righthand side of the slot.

Cleo Queen of Egypt Slot Theme

The border has been gilded with ostentatious gold, which is very fitting for Egypt's most famous and beautiful Queen. The reels take on a similar theme with traditional Egyptian artifacts being mixed with themed letters and numbers. These include the Eye of Ra, pyramids, golden sarcophagus icons, Egyptian dogs and more.

Each icon is designed to look good when static and when animated, Crypto have spent time to get the animations right which is where many slots fail. Other small details which make a slot enjoyable include sound effects and usability, again this slot doesn’t disappoint because sounds befit the theme and are not overbearing, some might call them mystical.

Setting up the slot is a breeze as all buttons have been positioned neatly at the bottom. The minimum bet per line is 0.05 which makes the cheapest max line spin just 0.45, the maximum coin value hikes this to $45 per spin. This is mighty impressive when you consider the jackpot is $20,000 with the progressive standing at over $580,000 at the time of writing!

Crypto has also included an auto play feature, the neat thing about their auto play is that you can bump spins up to 999 and you can tweak the speed. It’s small touches like this which make Crypto such a front runner in the slots entertainment arena.

Cleo Queen Of Egypt Slot Features

The Cleopatra symbol plays at the wild card, it plays dual roles. First it substitutes for any other symbols apart from the pyramid scatter, to be honest this was the most frequently occurring feature. If you role in 5 wilds on the same line the ‘crazy jackpot’ for that line is awarded. This is a neat feature which provides added excitement and more chances to win.

Three or more Pyramid scatter symbols starts the bonus round, during this feature you must select icons to reveal instant prizes and multipliers. At the end of the round the instant wins are multiplied by the bonus amount which makes it quite lucrative.

We’ve played quite a few Cleopatra themed slots and this one ranks as one of the best, we like the crisp graphics and gameplay, but it’s the 9 crazy jackpots and progressive which provide the biggest attraction.
