Tom Horn Gaming Unveils Book of Azure – Max Gold’s Next Epic Adventure

Tom Horn Gaming, a leading iGaming software supplier, announces the release of Book of Azure, the second slot in its Max Gold series.

This Egyptian-themed online slot takes players to Ancient Egypt, combining the proven appeal of the classic ‘Book of’ mechanic with new features designed to maximise player engagement, boost retention, and increase operator revenues.

Played on a 5-reel grid with 9 winlines, the game offers medium volatility, an RTP of 94.99%, and a maximum win potential of 500x the bet. Its combination of steady payout potential and multiple win opportunities encourages longer player sessions and repeat visits.

Classic ‘Book of’ Mechanic Meets Coin Collection

Book of Azure combines the timeless charm of a ‘Book of’ formula with Shatter Mode – Tom Horn’s signature feature – and enhances it with a popular Coin Collection mechanic to create richer and more rewarding gameplay.

When Book symbols land in the base game, they contribute to a Coin Pot above the reels. The bonus round – 10 retriggerable free spins – can be triggered either by landing 3 Book symbols during Shatter Mode or randomly via the Coin Pot, adding unpredictability and fresh win potential at any moment.

Once triggered, one symbol is chosen at random to act as a special expanding symbol throughout the bonus game. This expands to cover reels when part of a winning combination, boosting the chance of solid hits. A progressive multiplier increases from x1 up to x4 during the free spins round.

Cascading Wins and Multipliers

The game’s Shatter Mode brings fast-paced, cascading win sequences. Each win removes symbols from the reels, with new ones falling into place and a win multiplier increasing up to x4 with each consecutive cascade.

The feature ends when no new wins appear or the maximum multiplier is reached.

For players eager to get straight to the action, the Bonus Buy option allows instant access to free spins for 50x the total bet. “With Book of Azure, we wanted to evolve the classic ‘book of’ gameplay by fusing it with mechanics players love – cascading wins and coin collection – while continuing Max Gold’s story,” said Ondrej Lapides, CEO at Tom Horn Gaming. “It’s an action-packed game with a familiar feel, but enough innovation to keep players coming back for more.”

Max Gold’s latest adventure opens up new opportunities for operators looking to offer players trusted mechanics with fresh, engaging twists. Book of Azure is available to Tom Horn Gaming partners as of 14 August 2025.
