Buffalo is an older game from Aristocrat, released in 2008, which has done well enough in the land-based market, and as a result it’s been ported to the online side of the industry as well. The Native American theme is the one that’s serving as inspiration in this case, with wildlife being the source of high value symbols. Perhaps not the best looking design around, but it’s over a decade old at this point, and in any case, it seems typical for Aristocrat’s collection.

They’ve turned Buffalo into a 5×4 reels slot machine, which has 1024 ways to win (Aristocrat calls it the Xtra Reel Power system). With a top payout of up to 8,100x per way to win, and with medium-high volatility, the game does reasonably well so far, but unfortunately the RTP doesn’t reach the best level, clocking in at only 94.85%.

Feature wise, things are looking quite simple initially, with a mix of wilds, scatters and free spins, but for the last ones it should be noted that 27x multipliers are a possibility, and they do bring some excitement. Playing the game requires a wager between $0.01 and $4.

It might be an older game of Aristocrat’s, and the graphics and RTP don’t quite match the expectations of a modern online player, but Buffalo still manages to surprise. Its use of high multipliers keep it relevant even today, though you should have no problem finding alternatives with better graphics and higher RTP.
