How Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways rules and features work

Refilling

After a win is paid, every winning symbol disappears, the remaining symbols fall and new symbols of the same size fill the gaps from above. The new grid is checked again, and Refilling continues until no new win appears, so one paid spin can contain several wins. It also runs inside Free Spins.

Buffalo Wild

The Buffalo Wild appears on reels 2–5 and on the extra top reel. It substitutes for every symbol except the Scatter and always doubles the win of the combination it joins. It has no payout of its own in the demo paytable.

Extra top reel

The horizontal reel above the grid fills from right to left and adds symbol positions, which raises the number of ways to win.

Free Spins

Three or more Scatters start Free Spins. The game draws a random number of spins from 5 to 15 and a random multiplier from ×2 to ×25, and the multiplier applies to all wins in the round, including Refilling wins. Three or more Scatters during the round retrigger it, and the new random spins and multiplier are added to the current values. The round stops as soon as its winnings reach 6,000× the triggering bet, and the win is paid.

Buy Bonus and Chance x2

Buy Bonus starts Free Spins directly, with the same random spin count and multiplier. On the 0.30 FUN demo bet it costs 27.00 FUN, which is 90× the bet, and BGaming shows the price in game as the bet changes. Chance x2 is an optional mode that raises the bet for a better chance of starting Free Spins; the demo shows +0.15 FUN at a 0.30 FUN bet. Buy Bonus and Chance x2 cannot be used together.

How to play Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways responsibly

Set a money limit and a time limit before spinning. Work out what 90× of your current bet costs in cash before buying, include the Chance x2 surcharge in the total bet, and do not keep buying because a draw of spins and multiplier came out weak.

  1. Price the purchase

    Convert the Buy Bonus price into the full cash amount and treat each purchase as one separate decision.

  2. Count the real stake

    Include the Chance x2 surcharge in the total bet before setting your session budget.

  3. Do not chase a better draw

    Every bonus draws its spins and multiplier independently, so a weak round does not make the next one more likely to be strong.

Symbols and Paytable

Symbols follow the attached set for Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways. x6, x5, x4 and x3 are matching symbols on that many adjacent reels from the left. Values are multiples of the total bet, converted from the demo paytable at a 0.30 FUN total bet. The Buffalo Wild has no payout of its own.

Buffalo Wild

A white buffalo with curved horns on a pale violet tile with the word Wild. It appears only on reels 2–5 and the extra top reel, substitutes for every symbol except the Scatter and doubles the win of every combination it joins. It has no payout of its own in the demo paytable.

Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways RTP, volatility and maximum win

BGaming lists Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways at an RTP of 96.75% with Very High volatility and a maximum of 6,000× the bet. The card stores 96.75% as the displayed RTP and as both ends of the range. The 6,000× figure is where Free Spins stop, so it is a hard ceiling for the feature as well as the game. BGaming shows a €240,000 max-win figure, but the multiplier is the better yardstick because the euro amount depends on the stake. RTP is a long-run theoretical return, not a forecast for one session or a hit rate. Confirm the active figure in your operator’s information panel, including for bought rounds.

Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways compared with other games

Other Megaways slots also vary the reel height, but this title adds an extra top reel, Refilling and a Free Spins round with a random 5–15 spins and ×2–×25 multiplier that grow on retriggers. Compare the listed 96.75% RTP, the 6,000× ceiling and the 90× demo buy price before treating another title as interchangeable.

FAQs

What is the RTP of Savage Buffalo Spirit Megaways?

BGaming lists 96.75%. It is a theoretical long-run return, not the chance of winning one spin or starting a bonus.

How many ways can the game pay?

Up to 200,704 ways. The variable-height reels and the extra top reel change the active ways on every spin, and symbols pay when they match on adjacent reels from the left.

How tall can the reels get?

Reels 1 and 6 show two to seven symbols. Reels 2–5 show two to eight.

What does the Buffalo Wild do?

It appears on reels 2–5 and the extra top reel, substitutes for every symbol except the Scatter and doubles the win of every combination it joins.

How do you trigger Free Spins?

Land three or more Scatters. The game then draws 5–15 spins and a ×2–×25 multiplier at random.

What multiplier applies in Free Spins?

A random ×2–×25 multiplier is drawn before the round and applies to all wins in it, including Refilling wins.

What happens on a retrigger?

Three or more Scatters award another random spin count and another random multiplier. The new values are added to the current ones.

What happens at 6,000×?

When Free Spins winnings reach 6,000× the triggering bet, the round stops and the win is paid. BGaming also shows a €240,000 figure; the multiplier is a multiple of the bet, not a profit.

What does Buy Bonus cost?

BGaming shows the price in game and updates it as the bet changes. On the 0.30 FUN demo bet it is 27.00 FUN, or 90× the bet. It cannot be used together with Chance x2, and availability can depend on operator licence rules.

What is Chance x2?

An optional mode that raises the bet in return for a better chance of starting Free Spins. The demo shows +0.15 FUN at a 0.30 FUN bet.
