Caravan to Cairo - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Take a trailer across the desert to Cairo and pick up some jackpots along the way. Let the cute and colourful cast of characters help you find gold in quantities that would make a sphinx spin.

This game is free to play in demo mode and we recommend this to familiarise yourself before you decide to play for real at an online casino.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

The graphics are cute and cartoon-like and easily one of the best things about this game, and they are as follows:

A cute grey cat belly dancer with a sparkling gold collar and pink and gold headdress
An alligator wearing a traditional pharaoh’s headdress
A blue snake with a bejewelled crown
A purple haired monkey in a blue turban
A goat in a purple beret
Male and female camels in hats
An ostrich in a Cleopatra style wig
A purple hippo in a white, gold and blue pharaoh's headdress
A beaver in a fez

In the background there’s a typical Egyptian desert landscape complete with pyramids and an imposing looking sphinx.

As far as the soundtrack goes, well, there isn’t one really. There’s standard reel clicks and thuds and if you catch a win then you’ll get a short burst of a vaguely Egyptian sounding melody or an ascending tinkle.

This is where you might start looking to your own music library or Spotify for some Egyptian inspiration, and come up with...well, Walk Like An Egyptian by The Bangles. But since the game is focused as much on its lovable cast of creatures as its location, you’ll get much more mileage if you curate a playlist of your favourite animal inspired tunes or perhaps even some Disney classics.

Our Verdict

So, it’s not your typical Egyptian themed slot. Caravan to Cairo is placing its bets on cute, furry animals to win you over in contrast to the heavy mythology of Ancient Egypt that is typical of this genre.

In terms of features, it’s free spins or bust, and with high volatility, you’ll want to maximise this feature as much as possible.

If you’re looking for a bit of escapism, and who isn’t, you could do a lot worse than travel themed slot.
