Buffalo Blitz Slot Machine If you love high volatility online slots with tonnes of paylines, WMS/SG Gaming virtually has the market sewn up with its 4,096-line Raging Rhino game. Buffalo Blitz is also a high-volatility slot game, which can make it quite challenging to score any win at all sometimes. Fortunately, the game is also generous in terms of free spins and multipliers to help you out on the way to the jackpot.
Origins, one of the most successful content developers under the Playtech Umbrella, heads back to the wilderness to revisit one of their flagship titles, Buffalo Blitz. Other than a foreseen improvement of the graphics, the developer gingers up the sequel by stacking it with a rampage of features, starting with a base game that plays on the original’s coveted bonus round offerings. Things get even better upon gaining entry into an exciting free spins screen, where a ways boost from 4096 to 14400 puts you well in the path of a pounding blitz of epic wins!
Time to head back to the wild with one of the most buccaneering Playtech slots for a Buffalo rampage sighting like no other! Play Buffalo Blitz II for real money here or enjoy a free demo below:
The original Buffalo Blitz was released in 2016 and ended up a hit thanks to a 4096 ways to win format that promised breathtaking wins. It was, however, far from original as critics pinpointed its undeniable semblance to WMS’ Raging Rhino, which had launched months earlier. Four years later, and the developers are here to redeem themselves with a sequel.
Playable across any internet supported device with bets of 0.20-250 units of any currency, punters get the same default Return to Player and Volatility ratings. Meanwhile, the hit rate is significantly higher, which makes sense because the old game’s bonus round is basically the new game’s base game.
Thanks to an All Ways format that ensure a total of 4096 and 14400 ways in the base game and bonus round respectively, wins are cracked whenever at least three low-pay blackjack icons and two high-pay critters show up on adjacent reels. The regular pays can only rack up prizes of 6X on a single line, but that’s expected with a slot where the point is being able to win on a huge number of the available ways at once, possibly even with a couple of the multipliers issued randomly with the substituting wilds that can show up on any spin.
The buffalos are the symbols to watch out for as you spin. That’s because they show up stacked on all reels, thus increasing your chances of triggering huge wins.
Just like in the original, three, four, five, and six appearances of the scatter on the grid will trigger eight, fifteen, twenty-five, and one hundred free spins, during which two, three, four, five, and six scatter appearances will add five, eight, fifteen, twenty-five, and one hundred rounds to the free spins tally. The developers claim that the free spins can be re-triggered infinitely, but let’s face it. That can never be true. Where Playtech is concerned, no game with the “infinite” re-triggering clause has managed to go over thirty re-triggers. Even so, there’s still much to be excited about, more so because the bonus round plays on an expanded gaming area with over ten thousand additional winning ways for more than four times the win potential offered in the base game!
The most exciting thing about Buffalo Blitz II is that the maximum possible win when raging buffaloes are occupying all reels is almost incalculable. During our test run, we were able to hit 544X and 1000X during base play, and the buffaloes were not even close to occupying the entire grid. We didn’t get to see an epic win with the bonus round’s 14400 ways to win because of a horrendous number of low-win free spins, but that’s just how the game is. A larger percentage of the RTP, as well as the hit rate, is dedicated to the base game, meaning that finally landing those 10000X+ wins in the bonus round will take a hell of a lot of patience.
