If a blue version lands, this uncovers the Collect Feature, gathering the values of all the symbols on show and adding them to the total win.
During the Hold and Win feature, the appearance of Major, Mini or Minor coins the corresponding jackpots of x15, x50 or x150. The Grand Jackpot worth x5,000 is awarded should all 15 cells be filled with symbols.
3 Magic Lamps: Hold and Win’s Free Spins mode is triggered when three Scatter icons grant eight turns, with that number doubled if a trio of Scatters reappear during the round. A Wild symbol can double a win if it appears on a specific payline.
This latest release, with highly-detailed graphics, an upbeat soundtrack and alluring characters follows the success of Playson’s two 3 Pots Riches releases, which have proven the studio’s power to take a well-loved mechanic and add exciting new twists.
Tamas Kusztos, CCO at Playson, said: “3 Magic Lamps: Hold and Win is a captivating addition to our portfolio, giving players the chance to meet the Genie and hope he propels them to extravagant riches.
“The creative enhancements to the Bonus round truly boost the overall player experience and we believe that this slot will be a huge success for us, offering differentiation to the market.”

Flashscore tops speed rankings in UK fan survey ahead of 2026 World Cup
Flashscore has been ranked the fastest sports results platform by UK fans, according to new research into how audiences consume live sport.
In the UK survey of 2,000 sports fans, 46% identified Flashscore as the quickest platform. Flashscore said the pattern was similar in Italy, where 49% of 2,000 respondents named Flashscore the fastest, and in Brazil, where 53% of 3,300 participants reached the same conclusion.
Respondents also associated Flashscore with reliability. In Italy, Flashscore (known locally as Diretta) was recognised as being more accurate than competitors and national broadcasters’ platforms, while in the UK and Brazil it was recognised as being equal to or close to competitors and national broadcasters’ platforms.
Flashscore Director of Engineering Tomáš Kavka said: “It is not one magic technology that solves everything, it is a lot of small and larger right decisions over time.
“Serving a user in South America from Europe is technically possible, but speed is in our DNA. If we want to be the fastest on every continent, we need to be as close as possible to the user. And the data needs to reach that location the moment it appears in our database.”
The company said it continues to scale globally in its 20th year since launch, reporting more than 125 million monthly users worldwide, more than 400 million app downloads across its portfolio, and approximately 145 billion monthly impressions. Flashscore also reported over four million UK downloads, more than two billion monthly impressions, and average daily time spent close to 30 minutes. On infrastructure, Flashscore said it moved to a new data centre in Prague in 2024, tripling processing capacity, and uses a distributed cloud architecture. It added that during a major Champions League matchday earlier this season it handled 34 million users in a day, delivered 700 million notifications, and processed up to 1.3 million requests per second.
