Pragmatic Play – Eye of Cleopatra – Free Slot Game

This is one of those cases where it is advisable to “not judge the book by its cover”. , like many other developers, has many Ancient Egypt installments under its belt, but Eye of Cleopatra stands out a bit from the crowd in several ways. First of all, the polished visual presentation is pleasing, if not exceptional, but the Random Wild Pattern device you see to the right is a somewhat interesting innovation.

It comes to life at random times in the base game, usually resulting in a win, and is always active in the bonus round. However, you need Wilds to generate more Wilds, and this can affect or detract from your feature. What is missing is some sort of multiplier to allow for larger single spin payouts, as you will need many 200x single spin max wins to reach the 4,000x potential. Overall, though, this is an above average trip to the land of the pharaohs.

Eye of Cleopatra Slot Features

The Ante Bet feature does not affect the RTP of the game, but it does double your bonus round chances. The price you pay is 25% more per spin , and the 5 premium symbols pay 1.25 to 10 times your bet for 5-wins. The wild symbol pays the same, and it also kicks in for all regular payout symbols to help complete winning combinations.

On the right side, there is a device that almost looks like a revolver drum at first glance. It consists of a golden circular eye symbol in the center, surrounded by 8 empty circular positions. The empty positions can light up blue at random times , and when wilds are present, in this case the adjacent symbols become wilds as well. The adjacent symbols that become wilds match the pattern of the lights that turn blue in the device, and if all the lights are blue, it means that all the adjacent symbols become wilds.

The bonus round (hit rate of 1 in 224 ) is triggered when you land 3, 4 or 5 scatters anywhere in sight, and this will take you to the free spins selection screen. You can choose between 4 options for the number of spins and possible wild light patterns , and here is an overview:

  • The 4 light pattern option awards 10, 20 or 30 FS for 3, 4 or 5 scatters respectively.
  • The 6 light pattern option awards 8, 16 or 24 FS for 3, 4 or 5 scatters respectively.
  • The 8 light pattern option awards 6, 12, or 18 FS for 3, 4, or 5 scatters, respectively.
  • The 4th mystery option is a random combination of the above.

The chosen number of lights is active in each free spin, but the pattern varies depending on the round, unless you choose the 8 lights option. You can retrigger the bonus round by landing 3 scatters on the same free spin, and you will get the same number of free spins as at the beginning.

The 200 Spins Eye of Cleopatra Slot Experience

You can see the base game grinding for a while, including a single wild pattern device trigger, before we land 3 scatters around 1:23 in the 3-minute highlights video. We opted for the mystery option, which actually got us off to a decent start, and you can see it all for yourself by clicking the play button below.

Summary

Traveling back to ancient Egypt once again didn’t immediately trigger waves of joy in us, but the pleasant visual presentation grew on us pretty quickly. Spin tempo is excellent with Turbo on, which always helps, and you can hold down the spacebar to plow through many spins of the base game on the fly. The Random Wild Patterns modifier regularly awards decent top-up wins, but no more than 200 times your bet at best.

The is a clichéd melody in the style of ancient Egypt and will accompany you while you wait to trigger the all-important bonus round. Volatility increases the fewer free spins you use, and the 8-spins option seems like a pretty balanced choice unless you want to take your chances with the mystery option. To crack the 4,000x potential requires at least 20x the 200x maximum win on a single spin, which sounds far-fetched, but the odds are a solid 1 in 238,095 .

Pros

Random transformation of wild pattern symbols.
3 FS options with wild patterns active on every spin
Win up to 4,000 times your bet (odds of 1 in 238,095)

Cons

Beware of customizable RTP ranges
Need at least 20 FS to crack the maximum prize
