MegaJackpots Cleopatra

The original Cleopatra slot machine holds a place in the affections of many real-world casino slots players' hearts, and indeed a place on the floors of many casinos around the world today. The acquisition of online casino software developer WagerWorks by Cleo's original manufacturer IGT means that this famous face amongst themed slot machines quickly found a new home in the online casino world too, and has proved as popular with punters in the virtual world as in the real one.

The original Cleopatra slot has spawned another sequel machine in Cleopatra II, but the MegaJackpots Cleopatra slot is the name of the game if you want to enjoy the same Egyptian trip but with the added spice of a massive progressive jackpot. And believe us, with a base jackpot of £1,500,000 this is a progressive prize that attracts a lot of attention to these Cleopatra slots and accordingly builds from that figure pretty rapidly too.

For players who've not encountered the Cleopatra slot machine before (or not read the Best Slots' review of it elsewhere on this very site) the vital statistics are that it's a five-reel, twenty-payline machine with Wild Multiplier, Scatter and Free Spin Bonus symbols adding extra features to the basic slots gameplay. One to five coins can be bet per active payline, so a full-fat Max Bet an any of the Cleopatra slots will cost you 100 coins (something to bear in mind when we discuss the MegaJackpot feature anon). The bonus game players will be hoping to trigger on this themed slot is the chance to win fifteen free spins which also pay triple the standard win that would be paid during the base game. It is also possible to retrigger this Cleopatra slot's bonus round while playing it to go beyond fifteen spins, up to a possible maximum of 180 in total. That's a lot of free spins if those bonus symbols won't leave you alone!

There's little cosmetic difference between the Cleopatra and MegaJackpots Cleopatra online slot machine other than the Wild multiplier symbol, which loses the lovely Cleo herself in favour of the MegaJackpots logo, and the jackpot readout sitting at the top of the screen as a constant reminder of the escalating progressive that's drawn you to these reels! This progressive Cleopatra Slot is what is known as a Wide Area Network progressive, so it means that the huge network of MegaJackpot slots being played at WagerWorks' powered online casinos across the Internet are feeding this headline prize. And how do you hit this MegaJackpot? Put down a Max Bet (anything less and the progressive prize is locked out), then spin up five of the MegaJackpot symbols on this slot machine's centre payline and you, my friend, will be an instant millionaire!

With any progressive jackpot slot machine you should be aware that with such high prizes come long odds of winning it, and with the wide area networks that can generate such massive payouts you're competing against loads of other players to hit that jackpot. But these jackpots are won, so if you enjoy playing the standard Cleopatra slot, and can afford to play the odd Max Bet of 100 coins do check out the MegaJackpot version because you might be lucky and end up buried under a pyramid of cash!
