Buffalo Blitz

 

Buffalo Blitz is a brand new animal theme video pokie game, which brings to the reels some of the local wildlife from the northern parts of the great American continent. It’s incredible to believe that this remote region still has some parts that are untouched by human hand.

 

Many settlers in the past have tried to make the great north into their new home, but the harsh conditions nature imposes always win in the end. The side effect of this is thriving of the local animal world, so the great north plains that once nourished massive herds of wild Buffalos, are today a home for the North American Moose, Mountain Lions, Raccoons and Grizzly Bears.

 

Even though all of the local wildlife can be found in the game symbols of Buffalo Blitz, we can’t really say that the way they are presented on the reels is top notch. For a new video pokie game like this one we expected to see top of the line animations and visual effects, but the details offered on the reels of Buffalo Blitz are on a much lower level than we are used to see.

 

Developers

 

Buffalo Blitz is the latest video pokie game coming from one of the leading software providers in the world, Playtech. Playtech is a well known company in the industry and their games power a big number of top of the line online casinos. Their Marvel Jackpots have millions of loyal daily players, each one hoping to land one of the power Jackpot awards.

 

How to Play

 

Buffalo Blitz has an unusual design for Playtech pokies with 4,096 ways to win, 6 reels and 4 rows. by manipulating the Coin Size value, players can adjust their bet anywhere from the minimum $0.40 up to the maximum $200 per spin.

The Turbo Play option will increase the overall game play speed, while the Auto Play option can be set up to maximum of 99 auto spins per session.

 

Special Features

 

Buffalo Blitz has only one bonus feature that players can trigger, but with the incredible payout potential it has, no extra features are needed. All symbols in Buffalo Blitz can come stacked across the reels, the Buffalo is the highest paying symbol, the free spins logo is the scatter and the Diamond is the wild symbol in this game.

 

There is only a free spins bonus available that can be triggered when 3, 4, 5 or the maximum 6 scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels. The player will be awarded with 8, 15, 25 or 100 free spins and extra free spins can be won during the feature. Their number can go anywhere from extra 5, 8, 15, 25 or 100 for every 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters that land on the reels during the free spins.

 

Still the symbol you will want to see the most during the free spins round is undoubtedly the Diamond Wild. It can land on all reels, excluding the first, and during base play it only substitutes for the other symbols.

 

But during the free spins bonus each Diamond Wild that creates a winning combination will have an extra multiplier attached. Its value is random and can be x2, x3 or x5. No need to say that the best combination with 5 reels hosting a wild symbol is a full first reel with Buffalo symbols.

 

Maximums Payout

 

Playtech usually reveals the maximum possible payout their pokie games have, but with Buffalo Blitz that information is missing. This is probably due to the fact that the extra free spins during the bonus round can be added to an indefinite number, so the maximum payout potential of the game can’t be calculated accurately.

 

Even without this information the free spins bonus round, along with the overall game design, has the potential for producing very big payouts, well over 10,000 x total bet.

 

Summary

 

Buffalo Blitz is basically the same pokie game as Raging Rhino by WMS. Maybe the reason why Playtech decided to create this clone game is because WMS restricted their games to several countries where Playtech operates freely.

 

Raging Rhino has a very big number of loyal players and is one of the best pokie games coming from WMS, so we hope the same success will follow Buffalo Blitz. The game certainly has the potential for paying big and we can only recommend it for real play in any of our top Playtech casinos.
