Cleopatra Grand Review
When players think of IGT, there is only one name that comes to mind - Cleopatra. Debuting over 10 years ago in Cleopatra, this Egyptian Pharoah has become one of the biggest names within the slot world.
Players cannot get enough of the simplicity of the game but constantly go back to it. IGT has tried to recreate this magic with Cleopatra II and Cleopatra MegaJackpots but both have failed to make a massive impact on players.
This is where Cleopatra Grand comes in. This is the next instalment in the series instead of focusing on more modern gameplay with respin mechanics and fixed jackpots. Could Cleopatra Grand be the next big slot for IGT? Read our review to find out more.
Design
Whilst there is nothing overly modern or exciting about the design, IGT has tried to improve the visuals slightly. The background is an animated one that slightly sparkles showcasing the beauty of the desert.
At the front of the reels, there are podiums holding up the building adorned with gold trims and hieroglyphics. The symbols feature all the familiar icons such as Cleopatra herself and scarab beetles - but there are more animations bringing the slot to life.
Sadly, there is no audio in between spins as there is only silence. During spins, there is a suitable score but it's a little disappointing that there is nothing playing through the audio in between spins.
Gameplay
Cleopatra Grand does try to up the ante with more enticing gameplay. There are both free spins and respin mechanics during this slot which will appeal to modern players.
Alongside this, there are multipliers of up to x100 as well as fixed jackpot amounts. At every turn, there seems to be something exciting going on in this slot and we loved it!
Win Potential
The RTP of this slot ranges depending on the slot site as it can reach as high as 96.10% or as low as 94.10%. As there is no progressive jackpot attached, this is a little disappointing that it can be as low - so we recommend heading to slot sites with the higher amount.
Cleopatra Grand also contains a medium to high volatility level and a maximum win of 10,000x the stake. This is a decent amount that is on level with the original game but less than the sequel. Ultimately, we think 10,000x the stake is the right amount for a slot like this.
Our Verdict
For a Cleopatra slot, this is quite modern. There are a variety of bonus rounds from respins to free spins as well as multipliers and fixed jackpots. This slot has everything a modern slot player could want!
To make it even better, you can even win up to 10,000x the stake during your gameplay. If you love free spins, then stick to the original to gain over 100 free spins. However, if you are looking for a fresh take on the Cleopatra series, Cleopatra Grand is the slot for you.
