Cleopatras Golden Spells Slot Machine: Review & Demo
In Games Global’s portfolio (acquired from Microgaming) there are already a lot of excellent slot machines and plenty of developers that contribute to it. Cleopatra's Golden Spells is coming from a new developer, called Ino Game, and based on what we’re seeing in it I think that it’s going to be a company worth keeping tabs on.
Cleopatra's Golden Spells is played on 5x6 reels, and it creates wins by 3+ matching symbols on the same row or column. I think that most are satisfied with a slot that has a medium volatility rating, and yet it pays up to 6,300x the round’s stake. The RTP of 96.18% helps as well. You get a couple of different features, with wilds, cascading reels, and the Cash Basket collection mechanic, but also random features and free spins.
Cleopatra's Golden Spells Betting and Prizes
A small bet in Cleopatra's Golden Spells could mean as little as $0.10 spent for the next round. There is always the option to spend more, and the maximum bet is worth $20.
You will get paid fairly well if you can hit the slot’s top rewards. Up to 6,300x, the wager could be paid back to players, so it looks like a jackpot of $126,000 is the most you can walk away with (depending on the wager that’s used).
The combination of a 96.18% RTP with a medium volatility rating is one that should attract a lot of players, of all types.
Slot Features
A Match 3 symbols are in place, so you just need 3 to 6 matching symbols lined up on a reel or line, in order to get a prize. If that happens, you will go through a cascade mechanic, to bring new symbols as replacements for the ones that already got you a win.
There will be wilds as well, and they help in the usual way. As replacements, they can contribute to all wins formed through their position. Otherwise, line up these wilds and they can pay directly, as much as 10x the stake (better than the top symbol, which offers 7.5x the stake).
You will sometimes see Scarab symbols on the reels, colored in gold or blue. These have cash prizes to give you, and they start dropping down by one spot, so they last in the game area for a while. When they eventually leave the reels, they may drop into a Cash Basket, and get you a prize of up to 300x the bet. The Cash Basket changes position each round though, so there is a chance of 1 in 5 that it will be in the right spot to claim that win.
There are also random features that can give you one of the small fixed jackpots, and another that adds golden cash symbols in view.
Eventually, you might get into the free spins, and you have up to 12 rounds then. There are more cash baskets, multipliers, and cash symbols, so the profit is higher.
Theme & Design
It’s a new slot machine that borrows from Ancient Egypt, but the design is very good. The symbols include the usual deities (Horus, Bastet, etc), along with pyramids, lotus flowers, scarabs, and even Royals eventually.
Conclusion
Cleopatra's Golden Spells slot from Ino Game looks great, plays very well, and can be highly profitable even though it has only medium volatility.
