Buffalo King Megaways Slots

Buffalo King Megaways runs on the Megaways engine, which means the number of symbols on each spin varies. The more symbols you see, the greater your chances of creating winning combinations. With a 6-reel setup, you can enjoy up to 200,704 Megaways! Wins are triggered by 3 or more matching icons or Wilds on consecutive reels starting from the left. Bets range from $0.20 to $125 per spin. Although the maximum potential win in this slot is lower than its predecessor, it still offers a substantial payout.

About Buffalo King Megaways

The game takes place in a canyon landscape at sunset—a visual reminiscent of the original Buffalo King. Pragmatic Play hasn't made major changes except for making everything larger and more striking. However, it's worth noting that the maximum potential win of 5,000x is just 5% of what was previously advertised in the original version. Pragmatic Play has recently changed their approach to distance themselves from rumors regarding exaggerated potentials—an admirable move, though they shouldn't go overboard either. The main highlight is the increasing number of symbols you can collect during the bonus round. Those who enjoyed the original will hopefully appreciate this more genuine approach.

Theme & Symbols

You'll find paying symbols such as the Buffalo, which can multiply your winnings up to 16x, followed by the American Eagle with a maximum of 5x. The Cougar offers up to 3x, while the Wolf and Moose both have 1.2x. At the low end are the playing card suits: Ace (up to 0.8x), King (up to 0.8x), Queen (up to 0.6x), Jack (up to 0.48x), and 10 (up to 0.48x). Keep an eye out for the Canyon Rock symbol labeled "Wild"—it acts as a substitute for other symbols to form wins but only appears on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Free Spins

If you land 4 or more Bonus symbols on the reels, you'll be rewarded with 22 free spins. Hitting 3 or more Bonus symbols during free spins grants 3 additional spins. Look out for the coin-shaped symbol featuring a Buffalo image, which can pay up to 100x your bet and trigger the free spins feature. Landing 4 or more scattered across the reels grants another 22 spins. During this round, Wild symbols come with win multipliers of 2x, 3x, or 5x. Hitting 3 Bonus symbols awards an extra 3 free spins.

Tumble Feature

In the Tumble Feature, after each spin, winning combinations are paid out, and those symbols vanish. The remaining symbols fall down to fill the spaces, with new ones appearing above. This continues until no more wins occur. All winnings from the tumbles are added to your balance once complete.

RTP & Volatility

This game has a Return to Player (RTP) rate of 97% and high volatility. Casual players should consider the risks carefully. Higher volatility increases risk but also boosts potential winnings up to 5,000x your bet per spin in the free spins rounds.

Round Up

What made the original Buffalo King slot so appealing was its potential to win over 9,000x your bet. If you're a fan of high-risk, high-reward gameplay, this will catch your attention. It would have been great if Pragmatic Play had kept higher winnings in Buffalo King Megaways, but they've settled for 5,000x instead, which might not sound as impressive. However, 5,000x your bet is still substantial. Considering Buffalo King Megaways is an enjoyable Megaways slot, we're happy to make the most of it.
