We are very impressed with the current range of Cleopatra slots available from IGT and their competitors. We are wondering, however, what new innovations could be made in the world of Egyptian themed slots? The answer we came to is that the next generation of these games could be based around some of the greatest myths and legends in the Ancient Egyptian tradition, bringing a whole new level of mysticism and magic to the already burgeoning ranks of Cleopatra slots.
One of the most famous legends in Ancient Egypt has to be the battle between the gods Osiris and Set. We’re imagining a slot game with a second screen bonus feature where you have to pick one of these two warring gods then watch them go to a special desert location screen where you’d receive prizes for how well they do in battle. There could also be another bonus where you’d have to find the pieces of Osiris scattered all over Ancient Egypt by Set and put him back together in order to win the game’s big jackpot.
Another well known legend from Ancient Egyptian culture is the journey into the land of the dead. Here the soul of a recently departed person travels down a river of the dead to be tried to find out whether they lived a good life or an evil existence. Their heart is weighed against the feather of truth – it is heavier then they were evil and their soul is eaten by a crocodile, but if it’s lighter then they are allowed into the underworld. Whilst this idea is probably not enough to hang an entire slot game off, we believe that it could make an excellent replacement for all the card game gamble features we’ve been seeing. Players could guess whether the heart will be heavier or lighter in order to double up all their winnings.
If you’ve never played a Cleopatra slot, then you don’t know what you’re missing out on! Get yourself over to any of our Cleopatra online casinos including Sky Vegas today, and try out one of these brilliant games for yourself on free-play and find out what all the fuss is about…

You have no doubt read about the new Cleopatra film coming along that has got Angelina Jolie starring as the beautiful queen of yore. Well, lets take a look at some other takes on the famous story and see what this new adaptations going to have to stand up against.
Cleopatra (1934)
This is the Cecil B. De Mille classic that shows Cleopatra in a very different light to the one we’re used to seeing her in. He casts her as a jezebel type figure intent on gold digging her way through the coffers of Rome. Claudette Colbert plays the queen as a seductive, charming lady with the temper on the side who ends her life on a barge, in one of the most memorable films from any Cleopatra movie. Made for just $750,000 this was the film that sparked the public’s love for Cleopatra around a time when Egyptology was a national interest and big business.
Cleopatra (1963)
When people talk about Cleopatra movies, this is usually the film they’re referring to as it is the epitome of the genre. Richard Burton stars with his real life lover, Elizabeth Taylor in one of her most blistering performances ever as a strong yet enigmatic Cleopatra. Her take on the queen is considered by many to be the yardstick that all interpretations should be judged on and has become synonymous with our modern day view of this ancient regal lady.
Cleopatra (Mini Series – 1999)
One of the best adaptations of Cleopatra’s life story in recent years isn’t really a film. As with many subjects these days, the best visual entertainment comes when they’re given the space to develop as TV series rather than being confined the three hours tops in a movie. The 1999 Cleopatra TV mini series was written by Frank Roddam, who also wrote the who’s rock opera Quadrophenia. It stars Billy Zane and Timothy Dalton as the Romans in love with our beautiful queen and was a massive hit with American viewers. It seems whatever form the Cleopatra takes takes, the public, no matter what the age, will fall in love and fascination with one of the greatest love stories ever told.
It simply goes without saying, if you love Cleopatra in any capacity then you will be in awe of this Egyptian goddess forever, whether it’s in the movies or taking a spin on the Cleopatra Slots games she will live forever……

Mark Burnetts TV show The Apprentice is one of the top shows of modern TV. Whether you are watching Donald Trump and his false hairdo in the US or Alan Sugar and his mock North London shtick, the format, the concept and of course the drama is always the same. As the show is based around a financial format, we have been thinking there must be a way that their marketing men can come up with a clever way to make this show into a slot game.
The Apprentice slot would definitely have to have a number of bonus rounds to accommodate the structure of the game. The game could be based around a persistent equity feature where you get to knock out different candidates based on reel symbols. This would lead to the first bonus round where you would have to complete a different task based on the number of candidates you’d knocked out. The best situation would be to have knocked out all but one candidate, taking you into the special final task situation, where you could win the games big progressive jackpot (which would also be accompanied by a FMV sequence of Trump or Sugar telling you ‘you’re hired’) although even if you didn’t win the task you’ve always got another chance in the boardroom gamble round.
We’re not sure exactly how the whole thing could fit together, but we hope there’s some developers out there (hopefully the same boys and girls who put together the fantastic Cleopatra Slots, Monopoly Here & Now and Rainbow Riches hint, hint Mr IGT) will be inspired enough by this article to go forth and make what we believe would be one hell of a themed slot.

Its that time of year again. The smell of freshly cut grass together with little tubs of strawberries and the sound of balls thwacking against racquets… Yes, its Wimbledon. The most prestigious Tennis tournament in the world has taken place in South London for the best part of a century, so how come we’re yet to see a themed slot based on this brilliant sporting event? We’ve seen reel games based on the World Cup, Snooker and Motor Racing so surely it’s just a matter of time before we see one based around Tennis.
A Wimbledon slot game would have to be designed with a green background together with a white border, to give the player the feeling that the reels are actually set within a tennis court. The game’s symbols would have to be straight out of court one and would definitely include Tennis balls, ball boys, racquets, glasses of barley water and all the usual icons of a summer’s day’s Tennis. Such as slot game would also have to include a bonus game that would either see you playing a set, or perhaps even a match point against your rival in order to win a big cash prize.
Developers could even include a facility for you to win a number of bonus rounds taking you through to a final round where you’d have to play one of the Wimbledon greats, such as Pete Sampras or Roger Federer to win the games progressive jackpot.
We believe a Wimbledon themed Slot game could even challenge the likes of the Cleopatra 2 slot or Megajackpots as the most popular slot of the summer.

Like all the people of great civilisations, the Ancient Egyptians loved to play games and gamble. They did not have dice to play craps, tables to play roulette or cards for Texas Hold’em poker and they certainly didn’t have any triple paying free spin round based casino slots. So what does history tell us about the games that Ancient Egyptians liked to play around the time of the great queen Cleopatra?
Well, some examples of games that the Egyptians loved to play have managed to escape the corrosion of time. We know that they played a game very similar to our modern day game of checkers and draughts called pwer, this could possibly be one of the very early ancestors of our modern game of chess.
Another game that was incredibly popular was senet, a game played with brightly coloured counters and sticks that mirrored the story of the Egyptian’s story of the soul descending into the underworld. One game that senet is incredibly similar too in our opinion is backgammon, which is now a world famous game that people simply love to gamble on. Another game that we know was popular all those years ago is dogs and jackals (sometimes called hounds and jackals), which was made popular in the Hollywood classic “The Ten Commandments”. Although we have some excellent examples of these games, recovered from tombs and smaller, late dynasty pyramids we still to this day do not have an idea of the rules although it is believed we have a good idea as to what they might have been.
We’ve played a few online versions of some of these Egyptian classics and all we can say is that we’re glad that gaming has now evolved to the point where we have internet casinos and poker rooms, because in our humble opinion some of these games are incredibly boring and simple.
We’d much rather be playing our favourite Ancient Egyptian themed slots like the Cleopatra 2 Slot or the stupendous Cleopatra Megajackpots than gambling in old Egypt.

Many people think that Cleopatras Needle is found in London, but actually there are three stone obelisks known by this name, one in London, one in Paris and the final one in New York. The Needles in London and New York are actually part of a pair whereas the one in Paris is not connected to the other two. None of these stones actually originate from the time of Cleopatra either, so where does the famous London landmark come from and how did it get to our capital city?
The London Cleopatra’s Needle was given to England following Lord Nelson’s victory at the Battle of the Nile by the sultan Muhammad Ali in 1801. Although the government at the time welcomed the gesture, they declined shipping the stone back to England due to the large expense of shipping such a heavy piece of stone. It wasn’t until 1877 that an English engineer decided to ship the stone back home, encasing it in a large metal cylinder called Cleopatra. It was the use of this cylinder that gave the stone its name as the obelisk certainly comes originates from a time long before the reign of Cleopatra, which was only a few decades before the time of Christ.
Cleopatra’s Needle was bought up the Thames to its final resting place where it is now displayed alongside two sphinx-like statues that were fashioned by English stone masons. It can still be seen to this day sitting in its famous position by Victoria Embankment. Not every one in the UK can get down to London to see this famous landmark, but those who can’t can still get their fix of Ancient Egypt by visiting one of our recommended online casinos and taking a few spins on any of the Cleopatra Slot Game range, including Cleopatra, Cleopatra II or Cleopatra Megajackpots.
Who knows, you could win a massive pyramid of cash?

Who will play Anthony to Jolies Cleopatra?
Everyone knows that Angelina Jolie has been controversially cast to play Cleopatra, the ancient queen that the world’s best ever casino slot was based on. Many argued that Jolie was a bad choice for the queen as she no doubt would have been of different ethnicity to the top Hollywood actress, thus creating an incorrect image of history. Whether people like it or not it looks like she will definitely be acting as Cleopatra in this new movie, but who will play her leading man, Marc Antony?
Well, many might argue that Brad Pitt is ideal for the role as there is already a romantic link here, as he is Jolie’s husband, many in the media claim that there are cracks appearing in their marriage with Pitt moving to England, leaving Jolie in France with their six children. Johnny Depp certainly has the Hollywood currency to play Antony, however we think he is of too slight build to play a Roman would-be-emperor with military aspirations and that the casting studios would probably look for a heavier actor for the role. This leads us on to look at the square jawed George Clooney who certainly has the looks to play the Roman, but is he too long in the tooth to represent the young Antony?
One thing is for sure and that’s we’re not going to find out soon. Many people are speculating on who’s going to play Antony, but we’re beginning to think that all the hype over this film might be completely unjustified, because some critics think that the best version of this story has already been made with Elizabeth Taylor, one of Hollywood’s greatest ever queens.
Let’s hope life is not as complicated, when we are deciding which one of our favourite cleopatra slots to play.
