Tom Horn Gaming

Tom Horn Gaming [Formerly, Tom Horn Enterprise (T.H.E.)] is a casino games and software development company with headquarters in Valletta, the Capital of Malta. Formally part of Slovakia's Meracrest Group SE, the company was founded in 2008 and has other offices in Slovakia, Ukraine, and the Czech Republic.

We first reviewed Tom Horn in 2012 and have been following their development and expansion for several years now.

In that time we've seen their continued testing, compliance, and certification by iTech Labs and GLI as well as the securing of a Malta (MGA) Class 4 gaming license in 2016 and remote Gambling software and Game Host (Casino) licenses from the UKGC in 2017.

Content distribution, market area expansion, game aggregation, and other strategic business developments have been covered by World Casino News as the Maltese company continues to experience growth and solidity in today's highly competitive iGaming market.

Notable partnerships include those with EveryMatrix, iSoftbet, Solid Gaming, Vivo Gaming, Pariplay, Jumpman Gaming, ProgressPlay, Slotegrator, and iGP among others.

Their innovative games can be found at NetBet, Parasino, GoWild, 777.be, and Happy Luke to name but a few.

Software and Games

While the developer's portfolio of games has continued to expand, we also see them fine-tuning their library, making a few of their older games obsolete - mostly in the classic 3-reel slot genre.

Wild Wild Bill, Dragon Tales, and Midnight Knights are among the retired or otherwise removed titles.

Some of their newer games such as Red Lights, Geisha Fan, Don Juan’s Peppers, and 243 Crystal Fruits easily make one forget about the obsolete titles.

Slightly older titles like Sky Barons are well worth exploring as well. This 15 payline mobile-ready game presents a high volatility index with free spins multipliers going as high as 13x. The bonus game also contains a random wild symbol which can disguise as any other icon.

Trigger twelve free spins by landing 3 or more Ace Pilot scatters.

The iconography is rudimentary but effective on transparent reels framed by a pilot's dashboard looking out over cloud-filled skies. The soundtrack is reminiscent of an epic WWI action movie. Win celebrations are appropriate rather than too frequent or annoying.

As we mentioned in 2012: "Tom Horn is a provider well worth keeping an eye on for future development."

Tom Horn Enterprise Security

The Tom Horn Enterprise website bears the seals of the ESC, Institute for Testing and Certification (ITC), TSU, and TST. TST is, of course, Technical Systems Testing (TST), a GLI Company. TST is an internationally recognized testing facility offering a full range of testing and consulting services to the iGaming and land-based markets. However, the casino we tested did not have live links to any of these authorities for us to confirm their details or validity.

Tom Horn Enterprise Conclusion

Tom Horn Enterprise, Inc. is a provider well worth keeping an eye on for future development. Although we have found no complaints about current or former casinos running their games, we are archivers here, not archaeologists and simply cannot find enough information to make to make a recommendation at this time. The games are definitely on par with a great majority of the offerings online today. If you have personal experience with this provider, their games, or casinos running their games - past or present - please take a moment to login or sign up and leave your comments.
