Buffalo Power: Hold and Win Slot (Playson)

Buffalo Power is the newest addition to Playson’s list of slots, and this game comes with the Hold and Win mechanic.

It’s a slot machine with a couple of fun things that you can explore, and the slot uses a theme that borrows inspiration from the North American prairie.

Buffalo Power: Hold and Win uses a buffalo as its main feature symbol.

Game Set-Up

Buffalo Power: Hold and Win is a 5 reel slot machine that also comes with 20 pay lines.

The slot s rich in features that include stacked wilds, free spins, multiplier wilds, a bonus game, and scatters.

Betting and Prizes

Playson uses the standard betting range on this slot, and by this, I mean bet prizes of between $0.20 and $100 per round.

On its own, the slot can reward you with as much as 2,500 xs in the base game. However, if you add some of its features, this can go higher.

The least exciting part on Buffalo Power: Hold and Win is the RTP, and at only 95.04%, it below the average offered by most modern slots.

Buffalo Power: Hold and Win Slot Features

The slot has many features, and the one that really stands out is the one with a majestic animal icon (Buffalo Power). It appears stacked, and you can use it in the basic form while on paid spins, and turn it into a multiplier during free rounds/ spins.

In both ways, you can use this feature as a substitute for the regular symbols. However, you cannot use it to replace the triggering feature.

Free spins are possible to get on this slot, and you can get then with some help from scatter symbols. The scatter appears with decorations of a mountain that light up at the top, and it will deliver up to 8 free spins. At least 3 scatter are needed for the free spins to be triggered.

There are two icons that wild deliver the bonus game.  Power icon is one of the two, and the other one is the Bonus Sun icon.  To get this feature, you will require a mix of at least 6 of these icons. This will reward you with up to 500x the stake.  

The Power Symbols (2-4) will help you in triggering one of the four jackpots that are available on this slot. However, For the Grand Jackpot will require at least 5 Power icons.

Theme & Design

Buffalo Power: Hold and Win uses a Native American wildlife theme, which is fairly common among many modern slots.

The main focus is on the buffalo, and among its feature icons are bears, wolves, mountain lions, and eagles. Low-value symbols are represented by Royals (J-A).

Conclusion

Buffalo Power: Hold and Win is quite similar to several slots from Playson.

However, the slot doesn’t do well when it comes to RTP, and Playson could have done a little better with that. From my own experience, I can say that this game is more suitable for casual players.
