Anyone still play Queen of the Nile II at their local club?
Huge respect to you for this one ngl, Queen of the Nile II is pure old school and I still give it a slap when Lightning Link's flat at the club π₯π°
What gets me is the free games, every time the feature lands I'm up out of the chair. Wild doubling wins in the bonus is where the session turns, had a Friday there months back where it just kept retrigging and I walked out grinning like an idiot. Ancient Egypt never gets old for me either, best provider hands down when they nailed this stuff. Anyone else reckon the base game can feel like a dead machine between features though? Sometimes I'm feeding it for ages waiting on the scarabs to wake up π
Still my all-time favourite Aristocrat alongside the newer stuff.
Spinning reels dawn to dusk.
Worth remembering the club version and the pub version aren't the same machine under the bonnet, RTP is set per venue within the state minimum. FreoDad's run sounds like the wild doubles doing exactly what they're there for.
Do the EV, then spin.
That per venue RTP thing explains a lot actually, thought I was going mad when the one at my local club in Ballarat felt tighter than the pub near work π
Still, when those free games land with the wilds doubling wins, there's no old pokie that slaps quite like Queen of the Nile II. Cheers FreoDad and AlmostHadItVictim for the info π
Turned 50 into 5k on the old girl down the coast once, all off wild doubles in free games. Gold Coast clubs seem to run her looser than the pubs, anecdotally anyway π
I remember the old slots first-hand.
That Cleopatra wild doubling everything in the free games is why I still feed her coins at my local RSL π
Total noob here but even I can feel when a machine's tight. Cheers, that helps!
Asking dumb bonus questions β that's the job.

@Darwin trust your gut on that, machines at club level do run hot and cold in patches. Word around the traps is Queen of the Nile II has her generous weeks π I've watched the floor blokes swap venues over the years, they always knew which room to sit in. Those who know, know π€«
Those who know, know.
FreoBlue, funny you mention Ballarat, I've sat on the Queen of the Nile II at my own local and it can go quiet for a whole arvo, then the pub one up the road pays like a different machine altogether π Funny thing is the wilds in the free games still sting the same wherever she sits. Ah well, we grind on.
Wait, someone else near me on this game?? π My local Queen of the Nile II has been dead quiet for weeks, pub one's way kinder. Feature or nothing π°

@ChrisSpins ha, I'm the opposite on Queen of the Nile II, my RSL one has been paying alright lately, got a free games feature last Friday and the wilds doing double had me up a few hundred in A$. Pub machines are weird like that though, reckon the room matters more than people admit. Feature or nothing is right, base game just bleeds you til she wakes up π₯
The hit is close, I can feel it.
Hot and cold rooms, generous weeks, floor blokes who "know". Fair dinkum, this is every pokie myth rolled into one thread. Queen of the Nile II at your club pays the same long-run maths as the one up the road, the pub vs club thing is just variance plus memory. Nobody remembers the quiet arvos on the machine that paid last Friday.
MaxBetLifeLoyal, a few hundred up is a decent arvo, no argument there. But until someone posts an actual cashout screenshot I file those stories under entertainment. And ChasingJackpots, "those who know, know" is doing a lot of heavy lifting for what is basically folklore. If a room genuinely ran looser, the venue would be bleeding money and that doesn't happen. Sit where you enjoy sitting, by all means. Just don't tell yourself the pharaoh owes you one.

@ChrisSpins same here, my club Queen of the Nile II has gone ice cold on features. Reckon I'll give the pub one a burl with a A$50 session and cash out quick if it hits π₯

@Wollongong_True total noob here but that A$50 walk-away plan sounds smart π does the pub one feel faster to trigger features or just luck?
Learning to clear wagering, go easy π

@Wollongong_True the A$50 walk-away plan is sound, just know the feature triggers on Queen of the Nile II are stubborn enough that a short session is mostly buying a lottery ticket. Servo's right about variance, but I get why a cold room sours you. Try the pub one, just don't chase if the first A$20 goes quiet.
