Play Alexandria City of Fortune for Free

If you’ve ever played casino games, you’ll be well aware that Egyptian-themed slots are hugely popular and about as common as sand in the desert. Before you roll your eyes at yet another game filled with pyramids, scarab beetles, and dog-headed gods, our Alexandria City of Fortune slot reviewers have some good news.

None of these over-used symbols appear as the action moves away from the pyramids to the coast. The Alexandria City of Fortune slot machine sees the famous tower alongside playing card suits, gold coins, a pharaoh, and Queen Cleopatra. Ok, it still features pharaohs and Cleopatra, but these are the exception.

The Alexandria City of Fortune online slot uses a fun cartoon style rather than the highly-detailed graphics seen in many similar games. It’s bright and cheerful, although the vast tower is still an impressive sight. The tower sticks to historical pictures of the real thing that stood around 330ft high for 1,500 years.

Created by Argentina-based Leander Games, Alexandria City of Fortune joins an extensive collection of games from this studio at online and mobile casinos.

You can play the Alexandria City of Fortune slot for free or place bets with 25 coins, adjusting the value of a coin from just 0.01 to 1.00. The 25.00 maximum bet is a little lower than our Alexandria City of Fortune reviewers like to see, but it should be fine for most of us.

Five reels and four rows of symbols lead to 1,024 possible ways to win. Symbols just need to be on adjacent reels from left to right without a gap in the sequence. Taken as a long-term average, the return to players percentage is 95.89%, but of course, that will vary considerably throughout a shorter session playing the Alexandria City of Fortune online slot.

Alongside the option to choose your bet level, you can also spin the reels in Auto mode and speed things up by clicking the Fast Play button. Our reviewers played the Alexandria City of Fortune slot on an iPhone, Android tablet, and laptop. It looks great on any device, with the relatively simple graphics crystal clear, even on small screens.

Card suit symbols pay up to ten coins when seen across all reels, while Cleopatra and her friend each return up to 40 coins. The game logo pays between ten and 50 coins, depending on how many consecutive reels it lands across.

The wild symbol of the Alexandria City of Fortune slots game is a sailing ship, that’s able to substitute for all but a bonus scroll icon to complete winning combinations. It also pays 200 coins when crossing all five reels.

Keep an eye on the tower to the right side of the game. It randomly lights up, triggering any of three in-game bonus features. Rays of light can add mystery Book of Knowledge symbols in random places, which then transform into other symbols.

The Pharaoh’s Wild Rays feature sees a ray of light moving over the reels of the Alexandria City of Fortune slots game, adding multiple wilds to the mix. In the other feature, the lighthouse goes into overdrive as an intense beam of light shines into random spots. It hits symbols that explode, turning any symbols adjacent to them into more examples of a single kind. Our Alexandria City of Fortune reviewers found that these features can lead to big wins.

An ancient scroll is a bonus symbol that unlocks free spins when landing in any six or more places. Just six on the reels of the Alexandria City of Fortune slot machine will trigger ten spins, but you earn more with any number above this. Seven or Eight bonus scrolls lead to 12 free games, and any number over 12 triggering symbols leads to a maximum of 25 spins.

It’s possible that just a single bonus symbol can light a pathway to the free spins. The scroll locks in place as the reels respin once more. If any more bonus symbols land in the respin, these also lock, and another spin plays out. This carries on until no new bonus symbols land on the Alexandria City of Fortune online slot, and if at least six appeared, the free games begin.

Whichever way you get to the free games, any combinations completed with the help of the wild symbol can be doubled in value, although it’s not guaranteed. The free games can be retriggered. In a special Wild Sweetener feature, if you don’t have enough scrolls in view, the lighthouse turns them into extra wilds, which can lead to a consolation prize.

There are literally hundreds of games themed around historical Egypt, and our Alexandria City of Fortune reviewers all have our own favorites. Take a look at the Legend of Cleopatra online slot from Playson, or perhaps enjoy the animated style of A While on the Nile slot machine from Nextgen Gaming.

Our reviewers are sure that the Alexandria City of Fortune slot will appeal to anyone who likes games based on ancient civilizations – Egyptian or otherwise.

The graphics could be a little basic for some, but bear with it, as the features turn this into a pretty sophisticated game. Play Alexandria City of Fortune at a recommended casino and see if this famous lighthouse illuminates you with exciting prizes.
