This game is based on the theme of the myths of Cleopatra and ancient Egypt. Cleopatra sits on a huge throne above the reels and uses her book to select special symbols. The symbols are taken from the artwork and hieroglyphics of that time.
The low-paying symbols are the playing cards A, K, Q, J, and 10. They all payout for 3 - 5 matches. The high-paying symbols are Cleopatra, a fan hieroglyph, a scarab hieroglyph, and the eye of Horus.
Here’s the paytable for Book of Cleo for a bet of £1.00.

The Book of Cleo has two thrilling features: Shatter Mode and Free Spins. Let’s take a look at both of them in more detail.
The Shatter mechanic comes into play when a win happens. The symbols that make up the win shatter at this stage. This leaves their spaces free. Other symbols tumble from the top of the reels to fill the empty places.
Every time a win happens, the multiplier at the bottom of the reels increases by 1x. The multipliers are 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x. When the multipliers reach 4x, they reset on the next win to 1x.
In Book of Cleo, free spins are triggered by landing 3 Book symbols anywhere on the reels. 10 free spins are awarded, and the feature can be retriggered. 10 free spins are always awarded.
When the round begins, the action moves to Cleopatra on her throne. She randomly selects a symbol to become the expanding symbol. When this symbol lands, it expands to fill the whole reel. If the symbol isn’t part of a winning combination, it will not expand. A new special symbol will the chosen if the feature is retriggered.
During free spins, the multiplier starts at 1x and goes up to 4x. When it reaches 4x, it will reset to 1x.
