Tom Horn Gaming will release the slot 3 Pots of Aladdin worldwide on 22 October 2026. The title is a high-volatility Hold & Win game built around three “pots” — Jackpots, Collectors and Multipliers — that can trigger separately or together to form seven distinct bonus configurations.

Basic game structure and Hold & Win operation

The core of the game is a Hold & Win that runs on a 3x3 grid during respin rounds. Each Hold & Win round starts with three respins. Coin triggers convert into Value Coins that lock on the grid; each newly placed symbol resets the respin counter. The feature ends when respins run out or when the grid is filled; a full grid awards the Grand Jackpot.

The studio describes three separate mechanisms presented as “pots” linked to that same grid:

  • Jackpots: a pot intended for accumulated prizes that can lead to the Grand Jackpot if the grid is completed.

  • Collectors: a pot that aggregates values collected during the round.

  • Multipliers: a pot with multipliers that can reach up to x10.

The combination of these three pots enables seven distinct bonus configurations because each pot can be activated independently or in any binary and ternary combination. At the top end of the experience is the Super Hold & Win mode, where Jackpots, Collectors and Multipliers appear on the same grid.

Bonus buy options and direct access to Super Hold & Win

The title includes Bonus Buy options in markets where that functionality is legal and permitted. Tom Horn Gaming defines two direct-purchase options:

  1. A buy option for 50x the total stake that activates a Hold & Win bonus with up to three special coins.

  2. A “Super Buy” for 120x the total stake that gives direct access to Super Hold & Win, with the three special coins active from the start.

The availability of these options allows operators and players to choose between triggering the mechanic naturally through play or purchasing immediate access to the bonus experience.

Design and product positioning

Tom Horn Gaming has said the aim with 3 Pots of Aladdin was to increase variety within a familiar mechanic without complicating player readability. The studio implemented a colour-coding system to identify each pot on screen and preserve clarity during respin sequences.

“Hold & Win remains an incredibly popular mechanic, but with 3 Pots of Aladdin we wanted to explore how to offer more variety without losing the simplicity that makes the format attractive. The three pots gave us the perfect structure. Each has a clear purpose – Jackpots, Collectors or Multipliers – and as they begin to combine, the bonus experience is progressively enriched, culminating in Super Hold & Win with all three mechanics in play.” — Ondrej Lapides, CEO of Tom Horn Gaming

The studio’s messaging emphasizes keeping the experience accessible for players already familiar with Hold & Win while offering increased complexity for those seeking higher volatility peaks.

Max exposure and key metrics

Tom Horn Gaming has declared a maximum exposure of 15,985.5x the stake. The multiplier mechanic up to x10 together with the Collectors and Jackpots elements act on the same 3x3 grid to make that figure possible at the top end of variance.

The game pairs familiarity with volatility spikes: most Hold & Win rounds follow standard respin and coin-locking rules, but introducing three coin types alters the odds for combinations rich in multipliers and collection values.

Implications for operators and markets

For operators the proposition offers two routes: list it as a standard title with organic activation mechanics or monetise it commercially with the Bonus Buy options at 50x and 120x, subject to local regulation. The presence of a Super Buy that grants direct access to the mode with all three coins active can increase average revenue per spin in markets where Bonus Buy is allowed.

Tom Horn Gaming has positioned the title as a Hold & Win variation with a design that makes the mechanic easy to explain to end players, which can reduce friction in retention and product communications.

Where 3 Pots of Aladdin fits in Tom Horn’s catalogue

3 Pots of Aladdin joins Tom Horn Gaming’s catalogue as an example of how the supplier seeks to keep popular mechanics alive by introducing hybrid combinations. The global release scheduled for 22 October 2026 allows operators to plan its inclusion both in standard lobbies and in targeted promotions with Bonus Buy.

Operators wishing to highlight the Bonus Buy option in their offering can link the feature to their product sections; platform integrators will need to verify compliance in each jurisdiction before enabling direct buys.

If you want to review how to fit these mechanics into your catalogue and promotions, consider coordinating the release date with launch campaigns in [casino](/casino) and communicate requirements to your supplier commercial team in [b2b](/b2b).
