Features Overview

There are 1024 ways to win in this slots game. The symbols pay in a left to right sequence irrespective of their position on the reels. The buffalo symbol pays the maximum in this game. A man shouts ‘Buffalo’ every time the symbol appears on the screen. This symbol is stacked, and may appear multiple times on the same reel. It is even possible to get a screen full of the Buffalo symbols. This scenario pays out really well, and you can be assured of big wins if you get all five reels filled with four Buffalo symbols each. The Buffalo symbol can make you a really happy person with the winnings!

The sunset symbol acts as the wild symbol in this game. This symbol can substitute all other symbols except for the scatter symbols, represented by the gold coin symbol. The sunset symbol appears only on the second, third, and fourth reels. The wild symbols can substitute the Buffalo symbols as well, and therefore can be elemental in seeing you win the huge rewards of this game. The wild symbol also adds a multiplier to wins when appearing in the free spin rounds.

You can get the scatter payout by landing three or more of the gold scatter symbols on the reels. The symbols can appear anywhere on the reels to qualify for a payout, as long as there are a minimum of three such symbols. The free spin bonus feature is also activated by the scatter symbols.

Bonus Rounds

When you land with three or more of gold symbols, you initiate the free spin bonus rounds. The free spins rewarded are 8, 15, and 20, for three, four, and five scatter symbols on the screen respectively.

The free spin round is played on the same reels as the base game. The free spin feature comes with two additional features that are unavailable in the Buffalo base game.

• You get 5 free spins on landing two of the scatter symbols on any of the reels.
• The sunset wild symbols multiply the overall win two or three times. You can retrigger the free spin round by landing three or more scatters on any of the reels.

RTP

We recommend only sticking to slots that have an RTP of 90% or more. Buffalo has an RTP of 94.58%, making it a decent choice. Given that this is also a low-medium volatility slot, consider starting out with smaller bets. This will let you gauge whether you want to raise your stakes or switch to a slot with a higher RTP.

Free Spins

Free spins are the most common – and we’d say most popular – kind of bonus round on slot games. Part of the reason for that is that they usually unlock a host of other features too. Buffalo’s free spins are a prime example of these. You can win 8, 15 or 20 free spins if you hit 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols in the base game. These free spins also include multiplier symbols that will each double or even triple your wins, for a total potential multiplier bonus of x27. And these free spins also have a retriggering feature, meaning that if you hit 3+ scatters during a free spin, then you get an additional 5 free spins.

Paylines

The reason why Buffalo has remained such a popular slot is that it doesn’t have traditional paylines. While most 5-reel slots will have 20 or 25 available paylines, Buffalo instead has an XTRA REEL POWER system, where players choose the number of reels they want to activate. The more reels they select, the more potential winning combinations are unlocked. If you play on the full five reels on Buffalo, you’ll get a whopping 1024-ways to win. 

Highest Payout

Unsurprisingly, the Buffalo is the highest paying symbol in the game. According to the paytable, the highest payout you can get when playing Buffalo is 300 coins, a payout you’ll get when you hit five Buffalo symbols. This applies both during the base game and the free spins feature. If you’re really lucky, it’s even possible to hit five buffalos and one or more sunset symbols during free spins, which will each multiply your payout.

Maximum Bet

The maximum total bet you can make on Buffalo is 400.00. If you want to make to make this wager, then there are you steps you need to take before spinning the reels. First, you need to make sure that all five reels are activated. Secondly, you need to add 10 increments of smallest minimum bet available on five reels, which is 0.80 on Buffalo.

Minimum Bet

On Buffalo, the minimum bet you can make 0.02, which is then multiplied by a reel cost that increases as you activate more reels. If you play on reel, your minimum bet remains 0.02, but if you take it up to two reels then your reel cost is 5 and you’ll make a minimum bet of 0.10. If you activate three reels, your reel cost is 10 and your total bet is 0.20. Four reels has a reel cost of 20 for a minimum bet of 0.40, while playing on the full five reels has a reel cost of 40 for a total minimum bet of 0.80.
