Buffalo Hunter Slot Review

Buffalo Hunter Slot - Game Overview

When I fire up Buffalo Hunter from Nolimit City, I am dropped straight onto the wild North American prairie with buffalo herds rumbling across a purple sky. The slot runs on 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 fixed paylines, with bets from 20p to £100 per spin. It belongs to the studio's Extreme Volatility line, so the ride feels brutal at times, but the headline win of 12,647 times stake keeps me spinning.

Visually Buffalo Hunter is clean and quite atmospheric rather than flashy, with carved wooden reels, a totem style meter on the left and a mix of drums and pan flute humming away in the background. The base game itself stays fairly straightforward, which suits a high risk title like this. I always feel as if I am just treading water there, waiting for scatters to land and one of the three feature rounds to open up.

Symbols and Paytable in Buffalo Hunter

In Buffalo Hunter the symbol set really leans into the prairie theme. Low pays are the 10 to A royals, dressed up with Native American feathers and paying up to 5 times stake for five of a kind. Premiums are four animals plus the buffalo itself, so you get roe deer, wolf, puma, eagle and then the mighty buffalo sitting on top of the paytable with wins up to 50 times stake for five.

The dreamcatcher works as the wild, substituting for all regular symbols and paying the same 50 times stake as the buffalo for a full line, so it acts both as a helper and a strong payer. You also get a glowing rune stone mystery symbol that flips into matching regulars, and the tall eagle totem scatter. After a while the whole screen can feel packed with animal art, mystery spirals and tribal trinkets.

Bonus Features in Buffalo Hunter

Bonus features in Buffalo Hunter start small in the base game and then explode once the free spins kick in. While you grind away, the wild and mystery symbols do most of the heavy lifting, creating the odd decent hit or teasing you with stacked reveals. The real tease though is that animal meter beside the reels, always tempting you with symbol upgrades and multipliers that only come alive once the right scatter combination drops.

Hit three or four eagle totem scatters and you choose between Buffalo Horde spins and Prairie Multiplier spins. Buffalo Horde is the less savage option, where special framed buffalo symbols charge into an energy meter and every five collected will transform one of the other animal premiums into buffalo on all reels, while also adding two extra spins. When this mode clicks, screens full of buffalos feel genuinely within reach.

Prairie Multiplier spins work on the same meter, but now the framed buffalos attach progressive multipliers, up to 5 times, to each animal including the buffalo itself, again with extra spins thrown in as you climb. Land five scatters and you do not need to pick, as the Stampede Super Bonus blends both ideas and drops you into twelve spins where you can end up with nothing but 5 times multiplier buffalos. On some sites the Bonus Buy button lets you buy your way straight into these modes, though as a UK player I only see it in demo.

How to Play Buffalo Hunter Slot

Playing Buffalo Hunter is very straightforward even if you are new to Nolimit City titles. I set my bet with the chip icon between 20p and £100, check the dynamic paytable through the menu, then hit spin or set up autoplay for up to a thousand spins with win and loss limits. The small lightning icon gives faster spins, and the cog lets me toggle sound, game clock and spacebar play to suit my mood.

RTP, Volatility and Wins in Buffalo Hunter

On the numbers side Buffalo Hunter sits with a default RTP just above 96 percent on most setups, though some operators lower it to around 94.24 percent so I always check the info page before I start. Volatility is advertised as very high and that matches how it plays, with long patches of dead spins or tiny line wins, then sudden bursts once multipliers, symbol upgrades and mystery stacks line up during free spins.

Max win is capped at 12,647 times stake, which is hefty enough on a £1 or £2 bet to make the heart race. In my own sessions I have had 200 spin stretches where nothing happened besides a few 2 times or 3 times hits, followed by a single Stampede run where everything turned into 5 times buffalos and the balance jumped by several hundred times stake. It really plays like a true extreme slot.

Final Verdict on Buffalo Hunter

For me Buffalo Hunter is a proper high risk buffalo slot, built around a fairly plain base game that keeps you hanging on for those three or five scatters. The way the two smaller features fuse into the Stampede Super Bonus feels very much like Nolimit City, and the whole package of symbol transformations, progressive multipliers and brutal swings makes this one of those games I fire up when I fancy a wild, all or nothing session.
