This video slot presents an astonishingly creative combination of two popular themes dedicated to the obscenely wealthy leprechaun Patrick and the most powerful queen of antiquity — Egyptian Cleopatra. This killing-combo guarantees big wins due to Expanding Wilds, Mystery Symbols, the Doublemax multiplier up to x64, and a Respin mini-game with Money Symbols that carry on cash prizes up to x100 by the stake. And the cherry on top of the cake is the max win, which amounts to x5,000 to the current bet.

CleoPatrick DoubleMax™ Bonus Features
This slot greets you with several bonus features, including a 'Hold'n Win' Respin mini-game, Expanding Wilds, Mystery symbols, and the Doublemax multiplier that is eligible during a base game and a bonus one. So, all the details concerning those mentioned functions are in the following.
Avalanche feature
Each symbol of any winning combination disappears after the corresponding cash prize is credited to the balance. That allows new pictures to fill out the settled free space and, if possible, form new winning sequences.
Doublemax™
To the first win of each base game spin, an x1 multiplier is applied. But each Avalanche feature triggering makes the Doublemax multiplier, which is in the top right corner of the playfield, double until it gets its maximum value of x64. The respective value is applied to the win gained due to the prize sequence formed after the current multiplier has been shown. In the base game, the Doublemax multiplier resets before a new spin starts. Also, if respins were activated, the current Doublemax multiplier would be carried to the newly started bonus game.
Wilds
There are two available types of Wilds in this slot. Let’s learn detailed information about each of them.
Common Wild
It’s a Wild of a regular type, no doubt familiar to you by many other video slots. It has a 1x1 size and substitutes paying pics. It’s not a payable special symbol that lands exclusively on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th reels.
Patric’s Expanding Wild
It’s a full reel-high Wild, picturing the Irishman Patric in full-length that appears during a random spin within the 2 — 5 reels in quantity of at least one, expanding on every reel where the regular Wild landed after the corresponding feature triggers.
Mystery Symbols
These occasionally appear on the reels in a random number, and each reveals the same paying picture.
Money Symbols
These symbols aren’t paid since they are intended for a bonus mini-game triggering and partaking in. 5+ of those guarantee you 'Hold’n Win' round starts. Yet, even if you will never get so many money symbols in view on the playfield at the same time, it doesn’t mean the bonus game has zero chances to begin since each coin in view is collected by the top-located Pot with gold coins, step by step increasing the chances for all of a sudden alternative way of bonus game triggering. Money Symbols carry values from x0.5 to x100.
Respin Bonus Game
All the Money Symbols are on the playfield when the ‘Hold’n Win’ round activates will be carried over to the Respin Bonus Game. Also, a currently active Doublemax multiplier is transferred to the respins. Initially, you will have just 3 respins, but each spin decreases it by 1. Luckily, every successful spin, leading to a coin landing, restores the respin’s number to the initial 3 again.
The Doublemax feature is present in a bonus game also. If the multiplier wasn’t transferred into respins from the base game, it activates by filling any reel on the mini-game playfield. Yet, one filled reel doesn’t make the coin values multiplied by x2 since it will need 2 reels fully filled with Money Symbols to double all the coin values. Hence, the maximum multiplier that could be managed to multiply all the coin values on the playfield during a bonus game is x16 if all five reels are filled up with Money Symbols.
When there are no more respins on the corresponding meter, or the play grid is filled up, the game is over, and all coin values are summarized to be credited to your balance.
Buy Free Spins
For those the most impatient ones, here is an option present, allowing you to buy respins’ beginning at any moment you want. Their triggering will cost x100 to the currently chosen stake.
Golden Bet
Also, there is a choice to increase the chances of a bonus game triggering, which will cost you 50% of the bet.
Our Experience Playing CleoPatrick DoubleMax™
Also, to get the complete impression of this promising gamble, we played a 300-spin gaming session on real money, using a €1 stake and a €200 overall game balance. And we're talking about the video slot version with an RTP of 96%.
Fortunately, each hundred spins had brought us a Respin mini-game triggering. Within the 1st hundred spins, thanks to the Respin Round, we earned €42.5. Also, there were as many as 24 regular wins, from €0.1 to €11.3. The largest Doublemax multiplier we got was x8, which brought us the max win of €11.3. Any Mystery Symbols or Expanding Wilds weren’t triggered. So, after the 100th spin, the total balance was €202.4.
During the second hundred spins, respins granted us much more than previously — €86. The maximum regular win, generated due to the x8 Doublemax multiplier, amounted to €38.2. There were 25 base game wins, from €0.1 to €38.2. The Mystery Symbols feature didn’t trigger, whereas the Expanding Wilds function was activated twice. Upon the end of the 200th spin, there was €274.1 on the balance.
Unlike the previous bonus games, this one, within the 3rd hundred spins, was activated due to 6 Money Symbols, whereas the two preceding times, we got re-spins exclusively thanks to cumulative effect due to consistent collecting coins by Pot with Golden Coins, slowly increasing the chances of randomly triggering this bonus feature. This time, respins presented us €69. Also, we, for the first time, got the Mystery Symbol feature triggering. Besides that, there was one time the Expanding Wilds function was activated. The number of base game wins was the same as in previous rounds — 24 (€0.2 — €8). As a result, after the 300th spin was finished, there was €288.5 on our balance. Hence, we earned €88.5.
So, we've seen from personal experience that Doublemax Multiplier is a great feature, allowing us to seriously enhance the Avalanche function in terms of profitability, guaranteeing big wins even during a base game. Bonus game hit frequency also delighted us because of 2 available ways to trigger respins — 5+ Money Symbols in view and random activation due to consistent coins-collecting by the top-located Pot. Sadly, Mystery Symbols and Expanding Wilds features, well-promising in the sense of additional income, trigger too rare. Yet, in our opinion, they aren't able to drastically change the overall prize income, especially compared to those mentioned above. Therefore, we didn't get upset about their low hit frequency.
Here are all the statistics about these 300 spins:
CleoPatrick DoubleMax™ Verdict
So, to sum things up, it’s a beautifully designed game with an adorable look and a generous Doublemax feature, doubling every next multiplier thanks to each new win up to an incredible maximum value of x64. And that function isn't available only within a base but in a bonus game also that allows you to collect Money Symbols with prizes up to x100 by the stake. Two ways of respins triggering — due to 5+ coins in view or thanks to the slowly increasing chances of its activation through the coin-collecting leads to high bonus game hit frequency.
Two slight drawbacks are the rare triggering of Mystery Symbols and Expanding Wilds feature and RTP value that ranges from top-notch 96% to frankly low value at 86%. So, beware concerning this. Nonetheless, these cons aren't able to interrupt your enjoyment while playing this game since two such lucrative features are present here, as a Doublemax multiplier and respins. On top of that, the max win is well-solid x5,000 to the stake.
