Buffalo Power Megaways Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
Of late we’ve seen other providers try their hand at the Buffalo theme, with the most recent effort being Skywind’s Big Buffalo Megaways™. Playson are now getting in on the act of this well known theme, so as expected we once again find ourselves in the mountain ranges of North America with the sun setting in the distance, and a blend of panpipes and native/tribal music accompanying the gameplay.
Under inspection we see the ever faithful royals J, Q, K, and Ace making up the lower section of the paytable, whilst the premium value symbols are the owl, eagle, wildcat, bear, and buffalo, with a 6 of a kind win paying 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, and 50x respectively. It should be noted that the buffalo symbol is also the wild symbol within the game, and will substitute for all other symbols bar the scatters, bonus, and power symbol.
Joining in on the action in Buffalo Power Megaways™ can cost just €0.20 a spin, with the maximum bet size reaching up to €100 a play. Those of you who like to know about the return to player percentage on a game, will find an RTP of 95.80% attached to this slot. Whilst this is a touch under the Megaways™ average, it still offers good value to players.
Base Game & Modifiers
Playson have opted for a 6 reel set up on Buffalo Power Megaways™, where rows of symbols ranging from 2 – 6 in height can appear on them. Through BTG’s Megaways™ engine, this allows the slot to generate between 64 – 46,656 ways to win on any spin.
Other than the wild symbols that can appear in the base game, there isn’t really anything else going off of to much note. Unlike some of the other Megaways™ slots, Buffalo Power Megaways™ does not feature the cascading reels engine. This really isn’t much of a surprise as we tend to see this mechanic included more on games that have a 117,649 paylines structure, not ones with 46,656 ways to win.
Buffalo Power Megaways Bonus Features
There are two bonus features that can be activated on Buffalo Power Megaways, so let’s get straight into the details of what these are, and how they can reward you.
Jackpot Bonus Feature
The jackpot bonus feature is triggered on Buffalo Power Megaways™ when 6 or more of the bonus/power symbols land anywhere in view. Once activated the reels will be cleared of all other pay symbols bar the cash bonus scatters, and the amount of Megaways™ that were in-play for the feature trigger will remain throughout.
You are then awarded with 3 spins where you will have additional chances to land more bonus and power symbols. These values can range from x1 – x5, or if you can land enough of the power symbols you will be awarded one of the corresponding jackpots that are situated above the reels.
Players should note that each time a new bonus or power symbol lands in view your spins will be replenished back to 3. Once you run out of spins or fill the reels with symbols the bonus will end.
Landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols in view during base game play on Buffalo Power Megaways™ will trigger the feature and award you with 12, 17, 22, and 27 free spins respectively. Once the feature begins, the wild symbols that were present in the base game now have a multiplier value of x2 attached to them. If you can land a few of these as a part of a winning combo then you could be in for a decent sized hit.
Whilst the free spins are playing out, if you can again land 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols, an additional 5, 10, 15, or 20 extra spins will be added to your current total respectively.
Buffalo Power Megaways Review Final Thoughts
With so many Buffalo themed slots now in the Megaways™ niche, it really is difficult to tell them apart from what’s good and what’s not. Whilst Playson’s effort in this genre is a little lacklustre, it does at least combine two ok features that on their day can pay something half decent.
