How to Play
The Buffalo King Megaways slot features the recognisable Megaways format, with its additional row at the top of the 6×8 reel setup that spins individually. The number of ways to win up to 200704 is displayed on the right side of the screen, as symbols land with a tumbling mechanism, paying from left to right, starting with the leftmost reel. The general RTP of the game is 96.52%, but it can take other values throughout the gameplay. Thus, the RTP is 96.49% when the Ante Bet option is active and 96.50% if you trigger the Free Spins with the Buy Bonus option.
The buffalo, eagle, cougar, wolf, and moose hit with prizes of up to 20x the stake. The Wild and the Bonus symbols are also part of the paytable, awarding up to 100x the total bet.
- Buffalo King – Pays 20x your bet for 6 on the screen
- Eagle – Pays 6.25x your bet for 6 on the screen
- Cougar – Pays 3.75x your bet for 6 on the screen
- Wolf – Pays 1.5x your bet for 6 on the screen
- Moose – Pays 1.5x your bet for 6 on the screen
- The Ace and King cards – Each pays 1x your bet for 6 on the screen
- The Queen card – Pays 0.75x your bet for 6 on the screen
- The Jack and 10 cards – Each pays 0.60x your bet for 6 on the screen
The Wild Symbol depicting a Grand Canyon-style rock appears only on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5, replacing all symbols when landing, but the Bonus one.
The Golden Buffalo Coin lands as a Bonus symbol anywhere on the screen, triggering the Free Spins if there are at least four on the reels. The Bonus Symbols also comes with juicy prizes of 5x, 20x, or 100x for landing four, five, or six of them.
How to Win
The Buffalo King Megaways slot features the Free Spins mode found in the original title as well but adds more excitement with the Ante Bet and the Buy Free Spins options that lack in Buffalo King.
The Tumble Feature
This feature applies to the entire gameplay and follows you throughout the game. The Tumble Feature, also known as the collapsing mode, removes the symbols that formed a winning combination and replaces them with new ones coming from above. The symbols that remained on the screen after the win fall to the bottom of the reels. Thus, you will be playing with new symbols after each win.
The tumbling sequences end when there are no more wins as a result of a tumble.
The Free Spins Feature
Activate this round with 4, 5, or 6 Bonus Symbols on the grid. Depending on the number of Golden Buffalo Coins that triggered the feature, the game awards different numbers of Free Games:
- 4 Bonus Symbols award 12 Free Spins
- 5 Bonus Symbols award 17 Free Spins
- 6 Bonus Symbols award 22 Free Spins
During this feature, the Wild Symbol lands with a multiplier of 2x, 3x, or 5x. The difference between Buffalo King Megaways and Buffalo King is that the multipliers are added up in a Tumble Win section, and applied to the win of the entire tumble.
The game also gives you a chance to retrigger the round by bringing at least three Bonus Symbols on the screen. Thus, you will receive 5 additional Free Games.
The Ante Bet Option
This option offers you the opportunity to select the bet multiplier you want to play with. This way, you can choose between the two available variants, the Bet Multiplier 20x and the Bet Multiplier 25x. The first type triggers a normal gameplay, being the preselected option when you open the game. However, do not think this Bet Multiplier is boring and less exciting than the other. On the contrary, the Bet Multiplier 20x allows you to activate the Buy Free Spins option whereas it is not available when the other bet Multiplier is active. The Bet Multiplier 25x doubles the chances of hitting the Free Spins by adding more Bonus Symbols on the reels. As mentioned before, it does not allow you to activate the Buy Free Spins. Each bet multiplier has its ups and downs, so it is up to you to decide what fits you better.
The Buy Free Spins Option
As the title hints and as you probably know from our other games, such as The Hand of Midas slot or Gates of Olympus, with this feature, you can purchase the Free Spins mode for 100x the total bet from the base game. The game brings a random number of 4, 5, or 6 Bonus Symbols on the reels, awarding 10, 17, or 22 Free Games. This option is available only in certain jurisdictions.
Graphics
The Buffalo King Megaways slot brings the same mesmerizing backdrop from the original title. The cliffs that seem to be touching the skies and the arid, dusty grounds match perfectly with the bouncy soundtrack that makes you want to jump on a horse and ride towards the sunset in search of that 5,000x the stake top prize.
Conclusion
Buffalo King Megaways brings the gameplay from Buffalo King to a new level, a Megaways level. With up to 200704 ways to win and a Free Spins round with Wild multipliers that apply not to the winning combination but to the entire win of the tumble, this videoslot sends you to the wilderness of the North American desert in a blink of an eye. Join the Buffalo King in his quest of becoming the king of the desert, and he will reward you accordingly.
