Introduction

Armadillo Studios is one of the newest kids on the block, established as recently as the summer of 2021. Obviously, this means that it will take some time for Armadillo Studios slots to make their presence felt. The company’s priority is to produce bespoke games for US casinos, but the longer-term aim is to gain a strong foothold in the best slot casinos around the world. Their first game was released at the start of 2022, and they have another nine confirmed to follow. 

Queen of Egypt Exotic Wilds has a five-reel, three-column grid with 243 pay ways. The minimum bet is 0.40 and the maximum is 100.00. There are 11 regular symbols: an ankh, a hexagon, an eye of Horus, a flail and staff, a lotus flower and the six highest playing cards. The exotic wild is Cleopatra, the extra exotic is a scarab and there is a free spins symbol and a special symbol

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

Visually underwhelming with a simple backdrop, merely adequate illustrations, reel sound effects to set your teeth on edge, ordinary animation and no soundtrack to speak of.

How to Play Queen of Egypt Exotic Wilds

1. Queen of Egypt Exotic Wilds has 243 pay ways. The objective is to match three or more of the same consecutively from left to right. Wins on different pay ways during one spin will all be counted, but only the longest matching combination per line will win. Scatter wins are added to normal pay wins.
2. To set your chosen bet click on ‘Bet’ at the bottom left or on the coins symbol below the play button. You can move backwards and forwards between the choices or click Max Bet to go straight to 100.
3. Press the play button to spin the reels. You can also use the space bar if you have selected this option in the settings menu.
4. At the end of each spin any exotic wild that lands will expand to cover the entire reel and will have a multiplier assigned to it at random, from 2x to 7x. Exotic wilds only count as one way per reel. If you land more than one exotic wild in the same spin, then wins which include multiple exotic wilds take the sum of all the exotic multipliers included in the spin.
5. The exotic wild substitutes for all symbols except free spins.
6. We take gambling seriously, and we urge you to do the same. Please gamble responsibly. If you decide to play for money, please remember you could lose it. Make sure you keep within the limits of what you can afford. When you stop enjoying the game you should stop.

Queen of Egypt Exotic Wilds Review: Our Verdict

Missed opportunities abound. No auto play, no turbo play, unimpressive graphics and pretty poor RTP. This doesn’t strike us as a serious competitor to something like IGT’s immensely popular Cleopatra slot.
