Cleopatra Slot Free Play
Cleopatra's Gold slot is a slot which is very similar to IGT's Cleopatra slot machine. Like Cleo, it is a 20-line slot with wild symbols, scatters and 15 free spins bonus, all wins trebled. I'd play it at Club USA Casino who currently have a $777 signup bonus offer
About Cleopatra
Any 5 reel slots fan who's been to a land casino in Las Vegas, the UK, or just about anywhere for that matter, will probably have seen or played IGT's Cleopatra slot, an IGT game that is arguably the most popular 5 reel slot of all time. That's not to say that other games like Wolf Run or the original Da Vinci Diamonds slot machine don't give Cleopatra a good run for her money - and I am ignoring the popularity of progressives too! But you get my drift. Anyhow, IGT have launched an online version of this Vegas classic. It's faithful to the original Cleopatra slot you play in land based casinos (but with an improved RTP) and has the 15 Free Spins bonus feature that online slots punters go for big-time. It's one of two Cleopatra slots now released by IGT - the other being Cleopatra 2.
The main difference between the two versions is that on the original Cleopatra slot (above), 3 scatters gets you 15 free spins, all wins trebled. while on Cleopatra 2, you get to pick a number of spins and the multiplier increases by one on each spin. But it's much harder to hit wins on Cleo 2 compared to the original. Either way, those who play Cleopatra slots online or at land-based casinos will probably agree that, while it has it's evil moments, Cleopatra is one of the more entertaining IGT slots and very popular in Las Vegas, the UK and at the online casinos listed above.
One note about the respective expected returns (RTP). The two versions of Cleo you see at land-based casinos (one's a sit-down IGT Game King slot machine while the other is the upright 'kiosk' version) both have lower payouts than the online versions. There are two online versions available which differ slightly in appearance, but are both identical in game play. The version you see here has a 95.02% expected return at all of the online casinos listed above. The key difference between the online version and the land-based versions of Cleopatra that account for the payout percentage differences is that the online version pays out for two scatter symbols (unlike when you play Cleopatra slot machines using the 'Game King' boxes) and also for 2 9's, unlike both the GameKing and the Kiosk versions at land based casinos.
For those of you who enjoy playing Cleopatra but want some variation, you may also be interested to know that IGT have now launched the Pharaoh's Fortune slot for online play! It's a hard taskmaster but very popular in land-based casinos so worth a look when you have a moment.
Cleopatra 5 Scatter Win
Thought you might be interetsted to see this screenshot of 5 scatters that I hit playing the Cleopatra slot on 31st Jan 2010 at Victor Chandler's excellent Spin Room. It's the first time it's ever happened to me...very nice too!
IGT Cleopatra Slots (Video Demos)
The following slot video from the Slotjunkies video channel (which has over 200 slot videos) show both Cleopatra slots in action, each with the free spins bonus round so you can see how they work. Neither of these games are available to North Americans to play for real unfortunately BUT the very similar Cleopatra's Gold slot can be played both here and at various online casinos as an alternative. Like Cleopatra, It also features 5 reels, scatters and 15 free spins all wins trebled and while perhaps not quite as smooth as IGT's version, also has a random jackpot feature.
