Book of Aladdin (Tom Horn Gaming) – Review & Demo Play

Features of Book of Aladdin Slot

Book of Aladdin runs on a 5x3 layout with 9 fixed paylines. Wins land left to right and any hit triggers Shatter Mode, so winning symbols explode and new ones drop in. Up to four cascades can occur in one paid spin, with a win multiplier stepping from x1 to x4 across the sequence. The setting puts the reels on a balcony facing an Arabian palace at night, which suits the tale while keeping the focus on the mechanics.

The Book symbol plays double duty as wild and scatter. Three in view start 10 free spins, and retriggers are possible. A random symbol is chosen to expand during the bonus, paying by count and not tied to lines. It does not need to be on neighbouring reels to expand, which gives the feature proper punch. Books collected during a Shatter sequence can still open the bonus, so chains that keep rolling often hand you that entry.

Book of Aladdin Slot RTP and Features

RTP sits at 95.97% with high volatility, so swings can run long. The max win is x500, and there is no progressive pot. Stakes range from £0.50 to £100, which makes the minimum on the steep side for a 9 line slot. I plan sessions around that floor and prefer steady stake sizing. The game runs well on mobile and desktop, with Autoplay and a quick mode for pace. The maths suits patient play and timed bursts.

SHATTER Mode in Book of Aladdin

Any win on the reels fires Shatter Mode. Symbols in the winning combo shatter, the rest drop, and new icons fall in from above. Each consecutive cascade steps the win multiplier up, from x1 to x2, then x3, and finally x4. The sequence ends when no new win forms or when the multiplier hits x4. It is clean, quick, and it keeps the stake on one paid spin while giving several shots at extending the line.

I’ve seen the ladder reach x4 fairly often across longer sessions. The bigger swings came from two or three cascades linking premiums, rather than the bonus. In testing, base game chains outpaid several free spins rounds, which matches the high variance tag. I like to let Autoplay run in short batches, then pause if the shatters dry up. The mode shines when the Book appears mid-chain, as it can both complete lines and build toward the trigger.

Book of Aladdin Symbols and Paytable

Ten symbols feature, plus the Book. The premium set covers Aladdin, Princess Jasmine, Jafar, and the Sultan. Aladdin tops the sheet with up to 500x for five, Jasmine reaches 200x, while Jafar and the Sultan pay up to 75x. These premiums also pay from two of a kind, which softens dry patches when they land early on a line. Hitting four or five with a Shatter ladder active is where the balance starts to sing.

The low pays are A, K, Q, J, and 10. At the top of their range, A and K hit 15x for five, while Q, J, and 10 land 10x for five. Lines pay left to right across 9 fixed paylines, so I track positions and like to see stacked highs build on reels 1 to 3. With cascades clearing space, low blocks can fall away quickly, letting a second or third drop pull a line across the screen.

The Book works as wild and scatter. In the base game it substitutes for any symbol to complete lines, which is handy mid Shatter when one gap blocks the chain. Land three Books anywhere to trigger the free spins. During cascades, collected Books still count toward the bonus entry, so you can hit the trigger off a rolling sequence. I rate it as the key utility piece in both phases, knitting lines and opening the feature.

Book of Aladdin Slot Free Spins

Three Book symbols start 10 free spins, and retriggers add more sets of 10. A special expanding symbol is chosen at the start. When enough of that symbol land, it expands to cover reels and pays by count, not restricted to lines or adjacency. If the chosen symbol forms a win, it isn’t scored first; it expands straight away and the feature then evaluates the payout. If it doesn’t form a win, it won’t expand on that spin.

Our opinion on Book of Aladdin

This slot stitches two proven engines into one package, combining cascades with rising multipliers and the classic expanding symbol bonus. It won’t shock experienced players, but it flows well and the art fits the theme. The RTP at 95.97% sits on the lower side, and the minimum stake of £0.50 means bankroll discipline matters. I like to map a session budget, keep stakes flat, and let the maths play out over measured blocks.

In my play, base game chains often outpaced some bonuses, which is rare these days. I’ve pushed the ladder to x4 many times, and one session on a £1 stake returned £132 off a rolling sequence. Free spins can blank, then spike later, so I treat them as part of the whole rather than the only target. With max win capped at x500 and no side games, the value sits in those shatter runs and premium hits.
