Buffalo King Megaways is a high-volatility online slot from Pragmatic Play, set on the wilds of the North American plains where those famous buffalo roam. The 6-reel Megaways setup means there are up to 200,704 ways to win in this game, bringing the variety between spin outcomes that Megaways fans really enjoy. The layout is crisp and clean, with the cascading reels mechanic meaning that every win can potentially trigger a positive chain reaction, as winning symbols disappear and are replaced with new ones from above.
There is a player-friendly free spins bonus round on offer from Buffalo King Megaways, one that is unlocked by finding 4 or more scatters anywhere on the reels. There are between 12 and 22 free spins on offer, depending on how many scatter symbols you find, and you can retrigger if 3 or more scatters show up. The wild symbols during this round all have multipliers of x2, x3 or x5 attached, which helps to keep the prize pot bubbling up. Even if a wild symbol drops into the reel and can’t be used to make a winning line, it’s added to the ‘tumble multiplier’ which is used to boost whatever you have already won in that spin.
If you don’t want to wait for that generous bonus round, then there’s always the option to Play the Feature at any time for x100 your per-spin play. You will always have a fighting chance of making a profit on that deal. The overall maximum win amount on offer here is not as big as you can find in some other Megaways slots, but besides that Buffalo King is one of the best examples of a Megaways game.

PlayFame Verdict:
Let’s face it – if you like Megaways slots then you have most probably already played Buffalo King Megaways, as it is one of the best of the genre. We played just short of 100 spins with the ‘Double Chance to Win Feature’ activated before we got a bonus round of 12 free spins. This is a high-volatility slot after all, but it was worth the wait as we hit some multiplier wins to claim a total of over x215 our spin stake. This is a classic Megaways slot game and one with a great bonus round, even if it does take a little patience before it arrives.
