Savour a Hint of Ancient Egypt in the Caribbean

If you are a slots tournament fan and your love of Egyptology has been aroused by screen heroes such as Indiana Jones, then perhaps now is the time to set sail for the Caribbean. Well, not literally of course; you will just need to navigate with your browser to the highly popular Caribbean Gold Online Casino.

The operators have elected, this week, to give their regular “Slottery”  tournament a strong theme of ancient Egypt. Not surprisingly, the nominated game for this event is the blockbuster, “Last King of Egypt”, a 25 payline, 5 reel video slot game with that always-intriguing ancient Egyptian flavour. Of course the designers have chosen to ignore the fact that the country’s last reigning monarch lived in the 20th century and rode in limousines rather than chariots but, in exchange for all the gripping excitement of this great game, we can surely forgive their historic license.

The scarabs, ancient monuments, chariots and the jewel-laden king and queen that make up the symbol set create the atmosphere of a treasure hunt in which the reward could be a whopping 9 000 coins. There are plenty of free spins to be won and even tripled payouts during the free games, all of which could serve to speed competitors on their way to the top of the tournament leaderboard. The wide range of permitted bets that starts with as little as 10c and tops out at $10, means players can switch between aggressive and conservative betting styles as luck dictates.

The event actually kicked off at Caribbean Gold Online Casino on the 15th, August but the popular tournament is scheduled to continue until the 22nd so you still have almost 4 full days in which to make you bid. Buying in will cost just $5 and unlimited re-buys are available at the same price. Based on the number of contestants registered so far the pot is already weighing in at more than $2 500. It seems likely that the interest will intensify even more as time runs out and it’s a fairly safe assumption that the prize pool is going to crack the ten grand mark. The top 40 finishers will all be taking a cut of the Last King’s gold with the hero’s share of 35% going to the tournament leader and 20% to the runner up with progressively smaller shares going to the remaining 38 finishers.

At the moment, the leaderboard is headed by a player using the alias “serenararak” who has clocked up accumulated winnings of $10 000. This position is certainly not unassailable as it can be surpassed quite easily with just a few lucky spins.

Get moving and explore Caribbean Gold Online Casino now while there’s still plenty of that Egyptian treasure up for grabs!
