Tom Horn Gaming and AKNEYE, the innovative art initiative by AKN, have joined forces to launch a unique project, Akne Fruits. More than just a slot game, Akne Fruits fuses online casino gaming, traditional sculpture, and NFT technology to redefine the iGaming ecosystem and the future of iGaming.

A Visionary Blend of Art, Technology, and iGaming

Akne Fruits is groundbreaking in its exploration of the intersection between the physical and digital worlds in an entirely new way. Inspired by AKN’s signature AKN EYE motif, the game is accompanied by nine exclusive artefacts meticulously hand-painted by Rafayel Nersesyan, a famous Armenian artist, who also played a role in shaping the game’s visuality. Each object mirrors the fruit symbols from the game and serves as a tangible representation of AKN EYE’s iconic aesthetic.

Own and Share in the Success of Akne Fruits

Available globally, Akne Fruits invites players to connect with the game on multiple levels – enjoy it in their favourite casino, invest in its digital assets, or own their own piece of its physical representation.

Through NFTs offered via the Ortak marketplace, players can acquire game-inspired NFTs and become stakeholders in the game’s ongoing success. This experience is further expanded by the introduction of nine exclusive sculptures and their NFTs. These one-of-a-kind pieces allow players and art collectors to own a physical piece of the game and gain a significant share in its financial achievements.

Official Launch and Sell-Out at Harmony VI

The exclusive physical NFT collection of Akne Fruits made its debut at BetConstruct’s prestigious Harmony VI Meetup in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. In addition to the game’s digital collection available on ortak.me, art lovers and gaming enthusiasts had the chance to purchase one of nine exclusive physical representations of the Akne Fruits game on the spot. The response was overwhelming, with all physical NFTs selling out within just one hour of the official announcement – a historic milestone for Tom Horn Gaming and Ortak.

Pushing the Boundaries of iGaming

The partnership between Tom Horn Gaming and Ortak is redefining how the supplier perceives the future of iGaming. Akne Fruits goes beyond being just a slot game. It delivers an immersive experience that connects players and art enthusiasts with the game and its artistic assets on different levels.

“This collaboration is a perfect synergy of two innovative companies, combining our strengths to introduce new products, redefine iGaming, and multiply the success of our innovative approach to entertainment. With Akne Fruits, we’re not just delivering a game. We’re shaping the future of how players experience iGaming,” said Ondrej Lapides, CEO of Tom Horn Gaming.

Explore the Future with Akne Fruits

Players and art lovers are invited to discover the Akne Fruits experience by visiting the Ortak NFT marketplace and becoming part of this exciting journey. Whether through owning a digital NFT or acquiring a stunning physical sculpture, the possibilities are as limitless as the creativity behind the project.

By transcending the concept of a traditional slot game and embracing new technologies, Tom Horn Gaming continues to lead the iGaming industry into new frontiers, offering unique opportunities for players to engage with games and their creators.
