Gaming Realms revamps a classic in Slingo™ Cleopatra
Gaming Realms, a leading provider of mobile-focused gaming content, is returning to Egypt with the reimagining of a classic slot in its latest release Slingo™ Cleopatra.
Partnering with IGT, this new title blends the supplier’s iconic, high-performing Cleopatra™ slot with Gaming Realms’ engaging and immersive Slingo™ concept.
Set across 5×5 reels, each spin reveals five numbers, that must connect to those randomly generated on the title’s game board and in turn will mark its position. A line of these is needed to create a ‘Slingo’, enabling players to progress up an incrementally increasing prize ladder.
The much-loved Slingo Ladder in Slingo™ Cleopatra has a new accumulation mechanic, which sees more spins awarded for each step that players progress up the ladder. This can offer guaranteed win spins while also adding to the total number of Bonus Spins triggered.
Aiding in creating wins in the game are wild symbols which allow players to choose a number to mark on the same reel, and super wilds which can mark any number anywhere on the matrix. This element provides direct player interaction, significantly increasing engagement levels.
Free spin symbols can land, awarding an extra spin and assisting in climbing to the top of the prize ladder. Additionally, players are given the choice to keep spinning for more opportunities of creating a ‘Slingo’.
Three or more Slingos award the free spins round, which utilises the popular bonus round present in the original Cleopatra™ title. Played across 5×3 reels, this bonus reintroduces familiar symbols like scarabs, the eye or Horus and Pharaohs that can award huge wins across its 20 paylines. A full house in the base game is able to unlock up to 35 free spins of this bonus.
Slingo™ Cleopatra provides the perfect combination of popular and established slot gameplay, alongside the engaging aspects offered by Slingo to deliver a new title with mass market appeal.
Hans Winkelmann, Product Director at Gaming Realms, said: “Slingo™ Cleopatra brings back IGT’s iconic and highly popular slot but with a twist through the addition of our Slingo mechanic.
“The proven gameplay, much-loved Egyptian theme, and the elements of player interaction blend together to create a title that will appeal to both new and existing fans of IGT’s Cleopatra™ series. We are thrilled to see the impact this game has on players across the globe.”
