Wild Bison Charge (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Introducing Wild Bison Charge Slot Machine

I went into Wild Bison Charge expecting another animal slot, but the 5x5 grid with Pay Anywhere soon changed the pace. Wins land when 8+ matching symbols hit anywhere, and the scatter pays format keeps things brisk. Bet range runs from £0.20 to £100, with a rocky prairie backdrop and a Western-leaning soundtrack setting the scene. It’s high volatility, yet the feature mix lands well: multiplier wilds in the base, sticky versions in free spins, and a headline max win of 12,000x.

Theme & Design: American Wilderness Adventure - Wild Bison Charge

The slot drops you into canyon country, all big skies and red rock. Wildlife fronts the reels, with bison, bears, cougars, eagles, and coyotes pacing the set. The soundtrack walks a rock-flavoured Western line, and it fits the pace of a scatter pays grid. It feels like a polished package, finished in that familiar studio sheen.

I rate the presentation tidy rather than flashy. Symbols read cleanly at a glance, which matters when you’re counting 8+ hits across the 5x5. The lack of cascading helps the screen stay readable between spins. The theme’s been done plenty, but the execution is sharp enough to carry the sessions.

Symbols & Payouts - Wild Bison Charge

Scatter pays drive everything here: line up 8 to 25 of a kind anywhere to get paid. High pays cover the wildlife set. Bison tops the card at 5x to 250x for 8–25. Bear goes 2.5x to 200x, cougar 1.5x to 175x, eagle 1x to 150x, coyote 0.8x to 125x. That’s chunky for full screens and keeps the grid feeling punchy when the count climbs.

Low pays are the royals: A, K, Q, J. For 25-of-a-kind, returns go 100x, 75x, 60x, and 45x, respectively. Because placements don’t matter, you’re always scanning for volume rather than lines. It’s a clean approach that fits the 5x5 layout, and it pairs neatly with the wild mechanics that sit on top.

Scatters show as bison horns and trigger the feature. Three coloured bison wilds sub for pays and arrive with multipliers of x2, x3, or x5. When wilds sit in the same win, their values add together. Fill the grid with 25 wilds and you hit the 12,000x cap, which is the stated ceiling for the slot.

How to Play Wild Bison Charge Slot Machine

Set your stake with the +/- controls from £0.20 to £100 and toggle quick spin or autoplay if you fancy hands-off sessions. The info panel lays out symbol values and feature rules. Wins come from 8+ matching symbols anywhere on the 5x5, so you’re counting totals rather than tracking paylines. No cascades follow a hit, so the next spin resets the grid. It’s straightforward: stack counts, watch for wild multipliers, and hunt for scatters to reach free spins.

Bonus Features - Wild Bison Charge

Multiplier Wild Symbols: three bison wilds land with x2, x3, or x5. They sub for all pays and apply their multiplier to any win they join. If more than one wild connects, the multipliers add before payout. A single wild can touch multiple wins across the same spin, which is where the additive maths starts to matter.

Free Spins: land 3, 4, or 5 scatters for 9, 12, or 15 spins. Every wild that lands turns sticky and holds for the duration. Retriggers are on: 2, 3, 4, or 5 scatters award +2, +3, +4, or +5 spins. The additive wild math and stickiness are the engine; when positions line up, counts and multipliers can snowball hard.

Bonus Buy (not UK): the feature can be purchased for 100x the bet, nudging RTP to 96.04%. In my sessions, the bought round played fairly even, with sticky wilds deciding the outcome more than starting spin count. If you can’t buy, base play still has teeth thanks to those additive wilds, but the bigger swings sit in the bonus.

Max Win, RTP, & Variance - Wild Bison Charge

Default RTP is 96.03%, with alternative settings of 95.08% or 94% depending on the operator. Volatility sits at the top end (5/5). The max win is 12,000x, technically tied to a 25-wild screen. Free spins arrive on average around 1 in 227 spins, and overall hit rate hovers near 1 in 4.07. It’s a punchy profile: long stretches can happen, but the ceiling and sticky wilds justify the wait.

Wild Bison Charge Online Slot - Our Verdict

The theme won’t surprise anyone, yet the Pay Anywhere system combined with additive multiplier wilds gives the grid proper bite. Base game pops do land when multipliers align, though most of the heavy lifting sits in free spins. Sticky wilds make position matter, and when retriggers join the party the round can run hot fast.

On the flip side, the adjustable RTP ranges mean I always check the version offered. With that noted, the 12,000x cap, clean 5x5 flow, and a feature round that felt fairly balanced when bought kept me engaged. If you like scatter pays with meaningful multipliers and a clear route to momentum, Wild Bison Charge delivers.
