There hasn’t been a time, in recent memory, that one particular slot game has attracted so many online players. Pyramid Slots in general, and Cleopatra’s Pyramid Slots in particular, has gained such momentum since it first appeared in 2006. What is the fascination with this slot game?
Besides the graphics, sounds, and animation, perhaps it is the bonus round that excites slot players or perhaps it is the lucrative payouts whenever Cleo appears on the reels. Or perhaps it is the fascination with Cleo herself that attracts players to this game as well as the two other slot games with this Pyramid theme: Cleopatra’s Coin Slots and Cleopatra’s Gold Slots. Regardless of why they are so popular, Golden Slots has consistently rated Cleopatra’s Pyramid Slots as one of the best online slots available today.
Cleopatra’s Pyramid Slots is a 5-reel, 20 payline bonus video with a jackpot of 10,000 coins. But there’s more to it than that. Appealing, animated, and filled with stunning graphics, it is also filled with an array of bonus features. As mentioned earlier, with Cleo as the wild symbol, you can double or triple your winnings each time she appears on the reels in a winning combination. But, if the Cleo symbol appears anywhere on the reels, from two to five times; you can win up to the maximum of 10,000 times your bet. Even the scary scarab, the scatter symbol, affords you the opportunity to win 15 free spins when it appears on 3 reels giving you triple times your winnings. If Cleo appears during these spins, all we can say is Wow!
But the most exciting feature of this game is the Pyramid bonus round. When you get the pyramid symbol on reels 2 and 4, the Pyramid Bonus Round is activated and it is quite a sight. On a second screen, you are asked to pick a stone from the Pyramid starting from the bottom. If the stone reveals a dollar amount, you can move to the next tier and choose another stone. If that reveals a dollar amount, you can again repeat this process until you come across the asp. Yes, the asp that supposedly killed Cleo. Once the asp appears, the bonus round is over.
