Queen Of Alexandria
Queen Of Alexandria
The Queen of Alexandria slot (a WOWPOT game) is developed Neon Valley Studios in collaberation with Games Global ( Microgaming). And it seems to be based on the beautiful, but rather wily queen, Cleopatra. The Gold Collector slot is another one of Games Global’s s tie ups, they are rather good games.
But what is a WOWPOT I hear you ask? Well, it’s part of Microgaming’s jackpot network with the biggest win, The Wowpot, worth at least $/€/£2 million.
The Graphics
Opulent would describe the design in this game – with glittering gold and shiny gems all over the place! It puts other games like the Stellar Ways slot machine to shame, but then again, it’s more about the game play on that one.
Your transparent reels are set on a desert city background (Alexandria we presume) with a vast Pyramid in the centre.
The music is a traditional Egyptian ditty mixed with a Balearic beat which makes the whole thing rather relaxing. While your reels are framed by 2 ornate pillars adorned with colourful hieroglyphics.
The designers have clearly devoted a lot of energy to the look and feel of this game and it’s paid off.
Queen Of Alexandria is one of the best-looking slots we’ve seen in a while.
Queen of Alexandria Slot Game Play
Queen of Alexandria slot has 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines which pay both ways. Not as many as Snowborn Games’ Egyptian Tombs slot, and that will give you an idea of how it plays. Bets begin at 0.10 coins and go up to a maximum 200.00 per spin.
Your reel icons are represented by 5 gemstones; rubies, sapphires, amber, emeralds and amethysts – each of which is engraved with a hieroglyph. You’ll also see the lucky red 7 and a BAR Sphinx symbol.
Cleopatra herself is the wild icon (but more on her below). You’ll also notice that there is no scatter symbol in this game
The Bonuses
Wild Re-spins
When the Queen Of Alexandria Wild icon lands, it will expand over the whole reel and lock in place, awarding you a re-spin. If another Wild lands you’ll get another re-spin. There are a maximum of 3 consecutive re-spins on offer here.
WOWPOT! Progressive Jackpot
There are 4 jackpots on offer my – which should get you jumping for joy.
The Mini is seeded at 10.00, the Minor at 100.00, the Major at 50,000.00 and HUGE WOWPOT! at 2,000,000.00.
As you spin, you will randomly land diamonds over any icon on the middle 3 reels. These will then get whooshed up and collected in a golden pot under a wheel.
When you’ve picked up enough bling diamonds, the Jackpot Wheel will come to life. Spin this blighter and you will land on one of 4 coloured segments relating to the 4 different jackpot levels… Good luck!
Oh, and FYI: The higher your stake, the more likely that you will trigger off the wheel…
The Monkey Verdict
The Queen Of Alexandria slot looks amazing which makes it a joy to spin on.
And as for the game play? Well, I like it very much; in particular the Cleopatra stacked wilds that can land often enough to keep the base game entertaining.
