Slot features: Rise of Cleopatra

Scarab feature jars

Scarab Wilds land during base spins to fill jars, each unlocking a unique bonus in sequence:

1. Remove card suit symbols
2. Spawn random Cleopatra Wilds
3. Add a win-multiplier (×2–×10)
4. Reveal mega Wilds (2×2 or 3×3)

Unlocked features may trigger immediately on the next spin at the same stake, and can recur randomly in base play.

Free spins

Landing 3-5 scatter symbols grants 8-12 Free Spins, with bonuses unlocked during base play remaining active. Extra Scatters in this round award +4 to +6 more spins.

Our verdict: Rise of Cleopatra

Rise of Cleopatra offers a richly themed Egyptian journey packed with clever progression mechanics. Collecting Scarab Wilds to unlock game-changing features lends a subtle long-term sense of purpose and progression. When those features land, the action comes alive.

However, the RTP is slightly below average (around 95.7%), and the max win of ~5,360x, while solid, won’t terrify high-roller Megaways veterans. The Free Spins round is pleasant but doesn’t dramatically elevate the game, feature frequency remains steady, not soaring.

Fans of progressive feature unlocking and Egyptian flair will appreciate it.
