ABOUT
Buffalo Hunter slot by Nolimit City takes place in the Wild West devoid of any technological or even human influences. Instead, the world is pure primal with wild animals and mythical energy. It’s a trend nowadays to take a dopamine detox from the Internet, so why not enter this pristine world of pure nature?
Betting Options and Bonus Features
Buffalo Hunter possesses an RTP of 96.01%, 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 paylines. It should be noted that the volatility level here is maxed out at 10/10, so an absolute rollercoaster ride is bound to happen. If you manage to hit the peak of this ride, the max win is 12,647x the bet.
You can expect to find many familiar wild animal symbols such as deer wolf, eagle, and the buffalo that pays 50x for a full line. Features in the base game include wilds and mystery symbols, which transform into one of the normal symbols.
The real treat of Buffalo Hunter lies in its 3 variations of the bonus round. Collect 3-4 scatters to have 8 or 10 free spins in either the Buffalo Horde or the Prairie Multipliers bonus. Buffalo Horde is the less volatile option: landing buffalo symbols with mystic energy to turn other animals into buffalos. It takes 5 energies to transform one symbol type into buffalos and grant 2 more free spins.
The Prairie Multipliers, however, is the high-variance bonus option. The concept is the same in that you need to collect 5 energies to get 2 free spins, but this time instead of turning animals into buffalo, the game assigns multipliers to these animal symbols. Each time 5 energies are landed, it both unlocks a multiplier for a new animal symbol and upgrades all multipliers with +1 value. The max multiplier value is 5x.
Not stopping there, Nolimit added the third bonus game for those who land 5 scatters: the Stampede Super Bonus with 12 free spins. This bonus is in essence the child of both Buffalo Horde and Prairie Multipliers. Each 5 energies now will turn an animal symbol into buffalos and also give it a multiplier.
Roshtein’s Take
Although being yet another edition of the Buffalo-type slot, Buffalo Hunter has distinguishable features which make it stand out in the crowd. Both the Buffalo Horde and the Prairie Multipliers bonus have solid paying potential and entertainment value. The fact that they work on the same principles doesn’t bother me; I see it as consistency in style rather than laziness. The only thing that’s a tad lazy is the Super Bonus: it would be better to see more flair on top of simply combining the 2 bonus games.
