Unlock wickedly big rewards in Gaming Corps’ latest spellbinding slot

Gaming Corps – a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden, is preparing to enchant players this October with the launch of its latest slot, 3 Pots of Potions. Arriving just ahead of Halloween, the high-volatility release combines imaginative design with feature-rich gameplay and the potential to conjure wins of up to 10,000x the stake.

Played across six reels with 4,096 ways to win, 3 Pots of Potions immerses players in a bubbling world of stacked high-pays, Potion-collecting mechanics and Instant Prize opportunities. Potion symbols may land at any time, automatically filling their corresponding-coloured pot and offering a chance to trigger Free Spins. Each pot unlocks a different enhancement: extra Free Spins from the green potion, a 3x Multiplier from the purple potion, or Synced Reels from the yellow potion.

During Free Spins, every Instant Prize symbol is gathered into a Bonus Pot, which takes centre stage in a final Bonus Spin. If a Collect symbol lands on reels 1 and/or 6, the entire Bonus Pot is awarded, and potentially more than once. With Mega Instant Prize symbols reaching up to 5,000x, the feature adds dramatic anticipation to every round.

Alexandros Mavroudis, Product Owner at Gaming Corps, said: “3 Pots of Potions combines striking design with mechanics that encourage sustained engagement. The Potion collections introduce variety to the base game, and the Bonus Pot mechanic creates a clear crescendo during Free Spins. It’s a slot that adds both depth and replay value, and we look forward to seeing how it performs this spooky season.”
