Slot Details

Buffalo King Megaways is a cascading video slot with six reels and up to eight rows as well as 324 to 200,704 ways to win. Pays are awarded for two to six matching symbols landing on adjacent reels from left to right only. Available on desktop, mobile and tablet, you can bet from 0.20 to 100 credits per spin. The game has maximum volatility (5/5) with an RTP range between 96.49 – 96.52% depending on whether the Ante Bet is activated while using the Bonus Buy option will result in an RTP of 96.50%. Beware, some operators might offer the game with a lower RTP setting in the 94.xx% range. Always make sure to read the help files to find out which version you will be playing.

The rugged plateau at sunset from the original Buffalo King slot serves again as a fitting backdrop to the large game window encased in a wooden frame. Buffalos together with wolves, eagles and other wild animals found in those regions dominate the reels while a rather soothing soundtrack overpaints the high volatility of the game.

All pay symbols can appear stacked, except scatters and wilds. They start at the low end with card royals from 10 through to A, awarding 0.6x to 2x your bet for a single six of a kind. The premiums are moose, wolves, pumas, eagles and the mighty buffalo. Hit six across the reels to win 1.5x to 20x your stake.

A rock formation marked with the word itself is the wild symbol, appearing on reels two to five and in the horizontal tracker only and substituting for all regular pay symbols. A golden buffalo coin marked with ‘Bonus’ acts as the scatter.

Buffalo King Megaways Slot Features

Pragmatic Play is holding its course of releasing some of their most popular slots with a Megaways upgrade. To date, the list includes the likes of Great Rhino Megaways and Madame Destiny Megaways. In most cases, they keep the existing features and add another twist to the gameplay to give them that little extra attraction. Let’s see what they included on this occasion.

Courtesy of the Megaways engine under licence from Big Time Gaming, there are virtually unlimited combinations of rows and betways between the minimum of 324 ways and the maximum of 200,704, which makes each spin a unique event. The exact number of ways is randomly determined at the start of every spin sequence by selecting between two and seven pay symbols for all main reels.

Additionally, the game has an extra tracker at the top of the game window with four positions, extending from reel 2 to 5, where more symbols appear on every spin. A small display in the top right corner will show the current number of active Megaways.

Wins are paid for two to six matching symbols landing on adjacent reels from left to right only. The symbols from a winning combination will set off a chain reaction and shatter before the remainder drops towards the bottom and new symbols cascade from the top into the empty spaces. The spin sequence continues as long as a new winning combo occurs after a tumble.

Buffalo King Megaways Free Spins

Since the game has no modifiers in the base game although sufficient potential for big wins, much of the attention is focused on the main event. Landing four, five or six scatters will trigger 12, 17 and 25 Free Spins as well as award a coin win of 5x, 20x and 100x respectively. Three or more scatters on a free spin will retrigger +5 spins.

During the feature, wilds land marked with a multiplier of x2, x3 or x5. Should they become part of a winning combo then their multiplier is accumulated in the current Tumble Multiplier as shown in the small display to the left (desktop). More than one will be multiplied by each other. Once a tumble sequence concludes, the total multiplier is applied to the overall winnings from the current spin. It will then reset and activate again on the next free spins if any further multiplier wilds land in a winning combination.

The Ante Bet makes a return on this Megaways upgrade.  You can activate it before the start of any spin in the base game, costing you an extra 25% on top of your default bet for which the game adds more free spin scatters to the reel strips. The feature buy option cannot be used while the Ante Bet is active.

Lastly, the Bonus Buy option will allow you to purchase a free spins feature for a one-time bet of 100x your default stake (restricted in some jurisdictions). Simply hit the button and confirm to see the game launching a spin that will guarantee to land at least four scatters and trigger the Free Spins feature.

Final Verdict

Although Buffalo King Megaways brings not much new to the table, it fits well as an upgrade to the original Buffalo King slot. The vast number of possible betways makes sure you can hit a big or mega win at any time while the wild multipliers accumulation is a new twist for the free spins feature. Rather unfortunate, however, is the win cap of 5,000x bet as the slot would have clearly more potential.
