Rome & Egypt

Created by WMS, Rome & Egypt is a 5 reel slot that has 40 paylines. This slot gives away up to $5,000 as its top payout and combines free spins with wild symbols as features.

The game's theme is based on two of the most famous civilizations of the past, the Romans with the Egyptians. They actually have common parts of history, with Caesar and Cleopatra being lovers. They've met on the reels of this game as well, and they are used as stacked wilds. The level of the design quality is good, with a lot of features included in every single symbol that's been used. The symbols are both Roman and Egyptian in origin, with the mix working rather well. These symbols include on them images with Caesar, Cleopatra, laurels, the hat of an Egyptian priest, sword and shield, Egyptian cane and whip, grapes, plums, Coliseum, pyramids and the Sphinx.

The betting is rather easy to figure out in this case. The game requires for all 40 lines to be selected in the bets that are placed, so 40 coins will be used at all times. Each coin has a value between $0.01 and $5, so the betting range is $0.40 to $200. This seems quite a bit to invest in a single spin, but it does give the player the chance to win up to $5,000.

The main feature of this game would be the wild symbols, of which there are two. These two wilds are stacked symbols which use the image of Caesar and of Cleopatra. The player can get both symbols and they appear on all reels. They work together as well and they can even create wild combinations which have good payouts. As wilds, they can substitute for other symbols and since they appear stacked, they can help the player get more than a couple of combinations formed at the same time.

The same symbols that are wild will be used as scatters, meaning that they can award free spins whenever multiple stacked symbols appear. One stacked symbol will only be counted as one scatter. If the player gets 2 to 5 wild symbols, he will receive between 5 and 50 spins for free which have 2x multipliers.

It's an enjoyable game, with a theme that is way too common, but which is nicely done and it should be entertaining enough.
