Buffalo King review
The headline figure here is the ceiling: 93,750x the bet. Pragmatic Play set this 2019 slot on the open plains, with elks, eagles, wolves and the Buffalo King himself filling a 6x4 grid. The studio's description is short and centres on one round, free spins that can run to 100 spins and where every wild carries a multiplier. That is enough to explain where the potential lies, though not every detail of the base game.
The free spins are the game
Three to six bonus symbols trigger the round with between 8 and 100 free spins; the studio gives the range but not the count for each number of symbols. Inside the feature, two to six further bonus symbols retrigger it with another 5 to 100 spins, so a round can extend well beyond its starting length.
During the free spins every wild comes with a multiplier of 2x, 3x or 5x. When more than one wild is part of the same winning combination, their multipliers stack. Several wilds lining up in one combination is the route to the very top results, which explains how a six-reel game reaches such a high cap.
Reading the RTP
One RTP is on record: 96.06%, a house edge of 3.94%. Across a long run that is about $39.40 per $1,000 staked.
For shorter play, 100 spins cost on average $0.79 at a $0.20 stake, $3.94 at $1 and $19.70 at $5. Pragmatic Play publishes no volatility rating for the game in our data. Even so, a 93,750x cap that depends on stacked wild multipliers in a bonus round points to results that can swing hard.
The ceiling in money
At $0.20 a spin, 93,750x is $18,750. At $1 it is $93,750, and at $5 it reaches $468,750. These figures describe the theoretical top of the game, not anything a typical session approaches. Most bonus rounds will pay a small fraction of that.
The herd and its relatives
Two Megaways spin-offs exist: Buffalo King Megaways from 2021 at 96.52%, and Buffalo King Untamed Megaways from 2024 at 96.02%. The first one offers a clearly higher RTP than the original.
Among games with comparable numbers, Drago - Jewels of Fortune from 2020 lists 96.5% with a 48,000x cap, Mahjong Wins Super Scatter from 2025 pairs 96.5% with 100,000x, and Fury of Odin Megaways from 2022 has 95.97% and 15,000x.
Who it is for
Buffalo King makes most sense for players who are comfortable waiting for a bonus and accept that much of the base game is a lead-in to it. Small stakes stretch a budget across more attempts at the feature. Anyone who prefers frequent modest wins, or who wants a top-quartile RTP within the studio, has better options in the same catalogue. The free demo shows how often the bonus symbols turn up before any money is involved.
Pros
- Free spins range from 8 to 100 and can be retriggered for 5 to 100 more
- Every bonus wild carries a 2x, 3x or 5x multiplier, and they stack
- A 93,750x max win gives the bonus a very high theoretical ceiling
- Free official demo available
Cons
- No volatility rating published
- The studio's short description leaves base game details unexplained
Verdict
Buffalo King puts its weight on a single bonus: up to 100 free spins, retriggers worth 5 to 100 more, and wilds with stacking 2x, 3x or 5x multipliers that power the 93,750x ceiling. The RTP is 96.06% and no volatility is published. It is a bonus-chaser's slot, best kept to small stakes with the 3.94% house edge in mind.
