Wild Buffalo (NetGame) – Review & Demo Play

Wild Buffalo - Slot Overview

With Wild Buffalo, NetGame takes me to the American savannah and pairs buffaloes with an Indians vibe. The reels sit in totem frames, there’s an ambient soundtrack, and the presentation feels polished without fuss. Dominating the view is a 5x4 reel set using an all-ways pay system for 1,024 ways on every spin. It’s a familiar wilderness theme with a neat twist, and the mix of stacked high symbols and clean animations keeps the base game ticking over nicely.

Wild Buffalo Symbols and Paytable

The symbol collection here runs to 11 regulars split into highs and lows. As the title implies, the buffalo is the top star, followed by eagles, pumas, wolves, and bears, while A to 9 royals handle the lower end. Wins land when three or more adjacent symbols hit from the leftmost reel, except buffalo needs only two. Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth 5x your bet, with premiums paying from 6x to 15x the stake.

Buffaloes can appear stacked on the reels, which does a good job of lifting hit potential and can lead to a tasty payout when several connect. Silver buffaloes act as Wilds and substitute for any regular, though they only land on the three middle reels. Shaman symbols are Scatters, and they do double duty by triggering the bonus. It’s a simple, readable set-up that fits the 1,024 ways format well and keeps the action flowing.

Wild Buffalo Slot Features

Silver buffaloes are Wilds, stepping in for other symbols to connect wins, and they come into their own during the free spins. In that round all Wild symbols carry a random 2x or 3x multiplier, applied to every winning combination that Wild is part of. In the base game their presence on reels two to four still helps knit together those modest line pays, so you always feel you’ve got a live shot when they drop in.

Look out for Shaman symbols during the base game, as these are Scatters. When 3, 4, or 5 of them land at once, you first pocket 10x, 50x, or 100x the bet and then head to the Buffalo Fortune bonus wheel of 16 segments. One spin can deliver 8, 10, 12, or 15 free games, or the Mini, Minor, Major, or Super jackpots worth 10x, 50x, 100x, or 500x. Landing a jackpot also grants a respin.

Hit a jackpot with a +Bonus Wheel symbol and a small wheel appears to multiply that prize by 2x to 10x, which is a tidy touch. Free spins themselves mirror the base play, but the Wild multipliers change the gear, and retriggers are on the cards, adding more free games when extra Scatters arrive. It’s a fair set of features that keeps you engaged between the steady all-ways hits and those occasional wheel pops.

RTP, Volatility and Max Win in Wild Buffalo

Wild Buffalo runs on medium-high volatility, paired with a 96.22 percent RTP that sits a shade above the market average. The 5x4 layout with an all-ways pay system serves up 1,024 ways to play on every spin, with stakes running from €0.40 to €80 per spin to suit many bankrolls. The maximum win is capped at 5,000x your stake, not the biggest figure out there, yet a solid target given the risk profile.

Gameplay Mechanics in Wild Buffalo

Gameplay sticks to straightforward rules. Three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels from the leftmost position deliver a win, while buffalo needs only two. With 1,024 ways in play, the ways system does the heavy lifting, and stacked high symbols can turn a single spin into a board full of connecting paths. The totem-framed grid helps the visuals, but the maths is the anchor, with regular small hits punctuated by features that can spike payouts.

Silver buffalo Wilds appear only on reels two, three, and four, so you are often waiting for them to bridge premium animals. Shaman Scatters can land anywhere, which means any spin can throw up a chance at a cash award and the Buffalo Fortune wheel. Free spins then fold in 2x and 3x Wild multipliers, so ways wins can climb fast when those substitutes join the party on multiple reels across the 5x4 grid.

Wild Buffalo Review Summary

All in all, Wild Buffalo is a decent slot with a lot going for it. The buffaloes meet Indians theme looks the part, the animations are smooth, and the audio sits in the right place. The maths model feels balanced for the genre, and the package hangs together well. I found enough entertainment in the steady all-ways base, while the wheel, retriggers, and Wild multipliers bring a bit of excitement when the round opens up.

Highlights for me include stacked high symbols, Free Spins with Multipliers, and the four different jackpots sitting on the Buffalo Fortune wheel. On the flip side, the high-leaning volatility might be a touch much for some, and the 5,000x cap won’t suit every hunter. If you like the buffalo genre done with a tidy wheel twist and clean presentation, Wild Buffalo fits the bill for sessions where you want 1,024 ways ticking along.
