UK Machine Record
Cleopatra
Gottlieb · 1977 · at 1 UK venue.
Cleopatra is a classic Gottlieb machine that takes the player into the world of ancient Egypt. The artwork, pyramids and Egyptian imagery create the atmosphere while the gameplay focuses on traditional target and bonus progression.
The game has the straightforward structure typical of its era, making accuracy and ball control more important than complicated rules.
Cleopatra is a good reminder that a strong theme doesn’t need elaborate technology. Enter the tomb, make the shots and collect your treasure.
