Buffalo Blitz II (Playtech) – Review & Demo Play

Buffalo Blitz II - Theme and Design

When I loaded up Buffalo Blitz II it felt like stepping back onto the wide plains of North America. The reels sit over a windswept grass-covered steppe with mountains on the horizon, bathed in purples and golds from a cracking sunset. The HUD looks tidier yet faithful to the original. The soundtrack is on point, ramping up on wins to add a tense, mysterious edge. Symbol wise you get colourful 9 to A royals, then raccoons, cougars, bears, deer, and the mighty buffalo stacked on all reels.

Buffalo Blitz II - Technical Info

Buffalo Blitz II runs on a 6x4 layout using the AllWays mechanic with 4,096 ways to win. Any adjacent combo from reel one pays, so you are not tied to fixed lines. High pays reward from just two of a kind, lows need at least three. The core maths mirrors the first game, so returning players will feel right at home. I rate the flow familiar and direct, with stacked buffaloes carrying plenty of weight when the grid lines up across multiple reels.

Stakes range from 0.20 to 250 per spin, paired with high volatility and a 95.96% RTP. The stated maximum is 10,000x your stake, which means up to 2,500,000 on the top bet. Small hits can be thin on the ground, so I keep wagers steady and wait for the game to turn. It can be a grind in patches, yet the numbers speak for themselves when diamonds and buffaloes combine across the screen.

Buffalo Blitz II - Bonus Features

Feature wise, Buffalo Blitz II keeps things simple on paper, and the mix works well in practice. The heart of the game is the free spins, backed by stacked buffaloes and upgraded multiplier wilds. The base can feel rather uneventful for long runs, but when special symbols land the pace flips and the potential shows. I’ve had sessions where it crawls for minutes, then one spin throws everything into gear.

The WaysBoost free games trigger from three to six scatter logos for 8, 15, 25, or a chunky 100 spins. During the round the grid expands to 4-5-6-6-5-4, pushing ways to 14,400 while keeping AllWays active. Extra scatters can retrigger the feature, with even two awarding 5 more spins. The diamond wild appears on reels 2 to 6 and can turn into a 2x, 3x, or 5x multiplier; when more than one helps, their values are added.

Buffalo Blitz II Symbols and Paytable

Buffalo Blitz II sticks to eleven regular symbols. On the low side, 9 and 10 royals pay up to 1.6x for six of a kind, Q and J climb to 2x, with A and K topping out at 2.4x. Among the premiums, bears and deer pay up to 3x, cougars and raccoons 4x, while the mighty buffalo leads with 6x for a full line. The logo acts as scatter, and the diamond is a non-paying wild that substitutes on reels 2 to 6.

The '200' Spins Experience in Buffalo Blitz II

To get a feel for how Buffalo Blitz II behaves, I ran roughly 250 spins at 1 unit per spin using autoplay. The first 100 were extremely uneventful, with dead spins stacking up and only a handful of modest hits, the best around 12x thanks to a six of a kind and a couple of multiplier wilds. I finished that batch roughly 70 units down and still waiting on free spins, which can test your patience on a high-variance run.

The next hundred started with a 7.2x clip from a multiplier wild, then drifted back into no-win territory, maybe nine blanks out of ten. A 12.8x hit gave me a brief lift, but the bonus round still refused to land. Only after I was about 176 down did the free spins trigger, paying a poor 2.7x overall. That sting sums up the swingy nature here: one feature can flop, and you’re left hoping the next one delivers.

Three spins later, though, another free spins round appeared, this time with extra 25 spins and a massive 960x from buffaloes and a multiplier wild. The session ended nearly 1,000x up, flipping the script in minutes. It underlines just how extremely volatile this slot can be: long patches of nothing, followed by a surge when the diamonds align with stacked buffaloes. I always size bets around that profile and let the features do the heavy lifting.

Buffalo Blitz II - Verdict

For me Buffalo Blitz II is a bit of a controversial one. On the plus side, it keeps the charming setting, stacked buffaloes, and adds lively multiplier diamonds plus WaysBoost free spins with up to 14,400 ways. On the flip side, the base can feel flat with a low hit rate and not much to break the grind. If you enjoy high volatility and chase chunky jackpots, this remains a tempting pick that can swing hard when the pieces line up.
