The King of Cairo… well, if that doesn’t give away the theme of this slot, we’re not sure what will! Cairo is home to the pyramids, of course, not to mention thousands of years of history. We get to sample some of that history in this slot game, named after the King of Cairo himself. Are you ready to see what else might be lying in wait for you here?
About the King of Cairo Deluxe slot game
Yes, we should mention the game is also referred to as the King of Cairo Deluxe, but both titles refer to the same slot. You can expect lots of detail in this slot, along with a background that is just as impressive as the game itself. That is indicative of a game by one developer, as we’ll shortly see.
Who created the slot?
This is another great slot from GMW, an outfit that has been around for well over a decade now. Among their other slots are 101 Wolfpack, Super Fruits, and Viking.
The demo unlocks more info about the game
We never like to play a slot for real until we’ve learned everything that we can about it. Otherwise, we wouldn’t know what was involved in the game. The good thing about the demo for King of Cairo is that it plays the same way the real version does. Try it and see if it offers you whatever you’re looking for from a slot like this.
An ancient theme…
… yet it still gives you lots of modern entertainment to appreciate. We are, of course, heading to ancient Egypt to play this one. Fortunately, you don’t need to leave your home to play it.
The design takes you back in time
The pyramids look new, the sands of the desert settled in front of them. A darkening sky is above, shaded in rich colors. The sun won’t set over this slot game though – you might find you like it enough to continue playing for longer.
Reels, features, and more in King of Cairo
This is a familiar format, as we get five reels and three rows to contend with. The game also offers real players the opportunity to try and scoop one of three jackpots. These are indicated by gems of different colors above the reels.
Any ancient Egyptian slot game would look odd if a Pharaoh didn’t appear. Fortunately, one does here, and he carries with him the role of the wild symbol. He is labeled, as is the scatter, which is shown as the famous queen Nefertiti. The Pharaoh won’t replace Nefertiti to help with scatter prizes, but he can substitute all other symbols.
A manageable number of paylines
There are 30 in this game and they’re fixed. That means all must be covered on every spin.
Ready to place a bet?
If so, you’ll see the screen shows a 30-cent bet ready to go. While there are plus and minus buttons in the design, suggesting there are higher or lower bets to use, that’s not the case. If you play, you pay 30 cents a spin here.
An easy to use paytable
That’s just the way we like it. Go for the info button in the bottom left and then go through the various pages. You can find out more about the various features and symbols appearing in the game.
No bonus in King of Cairo
Sadly, you won’t find a bonus here to take you inside those pyramids. Wouldn’t that have been nice?
How many free spins could you net?
There are free games on offer here – possibly more than you might think, too. Look for Nefertiti to appear three, four, or five times in a spin. This would bring you differing quantities of free games, with 15, 30, or a huge set of 100 freebies to enjoy.
There are a couple of features worth noting in this part of the game. Firstly, anything won in the freebies is going to be treated to a 2x multiplier. Secondly, Pharaoh – the wild – appears more often and is stacked, so you could see several on the same spin.
Do we know what the RTP is?
The return to player is often mentioned in the paytable, but that’s not the case here.
What is our rating for King of Cairo?
We like the fact there are generous quantities of free games up for grabs if Nefertiti bestows you with her presence. Imagine securing 100 of them! The tweak to the appearance and format of the wild, plus the 2x winning multiplier, makes it a nice one to play. We’re rating this as 7 out of 10, dropping a point for neglecting to mention the RTP.
Winners have three progressive jackpots to go for
These are ‘must win’ jackpots, meaning they have maximum values they can reach before someone wins one. You can also scoop two or even all three of them on the same spin if you’re playing for real. You can’t expect one to drop in the free games though.
Are you going to play for fun in King of Cairo slots?
The demo version gives you the chance to see how everything works. You can check whether you like the idea of the Jackpot Jewels feature, along with seeing how the various symbols show up.
Are you going to move over to the real version of the slot?
It’s up to you whether this is the way you want to go. However, we think this has lots of potential, so it could be a good one to try if you are in the mood.
