Inside the Reels
Cleopatra keeps its layout simple: five reels, three rows, and up to 20 adjustable paylines paying strictly left to right from reel one. Six card-rank symbols fill the bottom of the paytable, while Egyptian artifacts such as the Scarab, lotus, golden tablet, and Eye of Horus form the mid and upper tiers.
Cleopatra herself is the wild. She substitutes for every regular symbol and doubles most line wins she helps complete, with one exception: five wilds on a payline pay a flat 10,000x line bet without the doubling applied. That single combination represents the highest payout available on any spin.
The Sphinx works differently. It pays as a scatter from anywhere on the grid rather than along a line, rewarding two or more matching symbols regardless of position. Three or more Sphinx symbols also open the free spin round, the game's main feature.
Inside free spins, every win except the five-wild line is multiplied by three, and landing another three-plus Sphinx combination during the round adds further spins on top of what remains. Reviewers consistently point to this stacking mechanic, capped at 180 total free spins, as the reason players keep returning to a otherwise straightforward paytable.

About IGT

Common Questions
Does the 3x free spin multiplier apply to the five-Cleopatra-wild win?
No. Every other win during the 15 free spins is tripled, but five Cleopatra wilds on a line stay at their base 10,000x line-bet payout.
How many times can the Sphinx bonus retrigger?
Landing three or more Sphinx scatters during free spins adds another 15 spins, and this can repeat until the round hits a documented cap of 180 total free spins.
Why do RTP figures differ between Canadian casino pages for Cleopatra?
IGT supplies Cleopatra with more than one RTP configuration, and different Canadian operators run different settings, which is why sites list figures anywhere from about 94% to 95.7%.
Does the number of active paylines change the free spin trigger?
No. Landing three, four, or five Sphinx scatters anywhere on the reels always awards 15 free spins regardless of how many of the 20 lines are active.
