Buffalo Blitz

Buffalo Blitz is another online slots that takes you on a wildlife adventure – this time to the plains, forests and mountains of North America. The buffalo of the title is the mighty North American bison, but you’ll also see several other species on the 6x4 reel grid as you play Playtech’s Buffalo Blitz slot.

The game has a relatively low RTP of 95.96% and is high volatility. There is a bonus feature that offers a generous amount of free spins, too, so read on to discover what I found out when I played the Buffalo Blitz slot games 2021!

Buffalo Blitz Theme & Graphics

The Buffalo Blitz graphics and sound effects have the look and feel of the type of cabinet-based slot game you might encounter in a bricks and mortar casino. There is a slightly retro vibe to the game that I quite enjoyed, but some players might find that the slot looks a little bit dated to them. The high-value symbols on the reels are all North American animals, so you’ll see cougars, raccoons, bears and moose as you play the game. The lower value symbols are the usual range of numbers and letters seen on many slots.

The Buffalo Blitz slot’s wild symbol is the diamond, and the scatter is the Free Games logo, so both are easy to spot. The wild will substitute for all other symbols apart from the Free Games symbol, and it also adds multipliers to any wins it is part of. The animation is pretty slick and smooth, and I also quite enjoyed the sound effects, like the rumble of galloping buffalo hooves. Buffalo Blitz mobile players will suffer no serious reduction in quality when playing the game on phones or tablets.

Slot Game Statistics

If you’re anything like me, you’ll want some hard data about the Buffalo Blitz slot before you decide to play it. Here are some of the key facts about the game that I managed to dig up for you.

You can bet from 40p up to £200, so this is a game that more seasoned players might prefer. The RTP of 95.96% is a little on the low side for a slot like this, so it was not surprising to see that the Buffalo Blitz game is high volatility. This meant that I had to show a little bit of patience as I played, as I had to wait for the really big wins to spin in, as there were fewer low value wins around. The maximum win on offer is £10,000, and Playtech has also given the game a generous free spins bonus feature, which I’ll look at next.

Buffalo Blitz Free Spins & Bonus Features

There are two bonus features in the Buffalo Blitz slot – its payline structure and its generous free spins bonus. I’ll give you the details you need to know about them here.

Unconventional paylines

There are 4096 paylines on the reels in the Buffalo Blitz slot. They do not work like the conventional paylines that you may have seen on other slots. Instead, payouts are made from matching symbol combinations from the left of the screen. Three or more adjacent, matching symbols will give you a win.

Free Spins

The main bonus feature in the Buffalo Blitz slot is the free spins game. I found that this can be very generous indeed. To trigger the free spins feature, you need to spin in at least three of the Free Games symbols on the reels. The number of spins you receive depends on the number of scatter symbols that appear on the reels.

Three symbols – 8 free spins
Four symbols – 15 free spins
Five symbols – 25 free spins
Six symbols – 100 free spins

I found that you could also trigger yet more spins, on an infinite basis if you’re really lucky! When additional Free Spins symbols appear on the reels during the feature, you will be awarded the following spins:

Two symbols – 5 free spins
Three symbols – 8 free spins
Four symbols – 15 free spins
Five symbols – 25 free spins
Six symbols – 100 free spins

Verdict on this Slot

I really enjoyed playing the Buffalo Blitz slot, and I suspect that more seasoned slots veterans will also gain a lot of enjoyment from it. The game’s high volatility means that newcomers may feel a little discouraged as they wait for wins, but the free spins feature can be spectacular when it kicks in properly. I have awarded the game a rating of 7/10, and I recommend that you head over to Easy Slots, sign up for an account and give this slot, or its sequel, the Buffalo Blitz 2 slot a try today!
