Pasadena Pinot Fest Casinos verdict: Hot!

---

Well, hey there, my fellow slot-loving friends!

It’s the original Pasadena Pinot Fest Casinos, with his latest slot review: Buffalo Rising Megaways.

Blueprint Gaming is the producer of this online slot, and at this moment, is the leading provider when it comes to the number of Megaways slots. And we expect this to continue for some time to come.

Besides this beautiful environment, where buffaloes are calling the shots, this slot has some excellent features to offer.

And yes, what can you win here? Ultimately you play to win, right?

Win up to 10,000x the bet

If you bet a tenner, which is the maximum bet, you can win a hefty 100K.

You must be thinking now… what are my chances of grabbing such a big prize?

Well, my friend, I’ll tell you right now!

Buffalo Rising Megaways slot – Gameplay and Features

In the game, there are buffaloes, brown bears, wild wolves and moose. The Buffalo is by far the most lucrative symbol.

Its horns are in an upwards position. Believe me, that’s what happens to your balance when you manage to spin a herd of buffalos.

It’s a Megaways slot:

• You have 6 reels of symbols with an extra row of 4 symbols on top.
• You have a minimum of 2 symbols and a maximum of 7 symbols on reels 1 and 6.
• On reels 2 to 5, you have at least 3 symbols and at the most 7 symbols.
• You get up to 117,649 Megaways.
• You also have the Avalanche (Cascading or Tumbling mechanism) where you get a free re-spin after each winning combination.
• Winning symbols disappear and are replaced by new symbols (a Reaction).

As with most Blueprint Gaming Megaways slots, you also get mystery symbols, which can turn into any symbol except scatters. These are not for decoration. They help you to get more winning combos.

The default payout percentage is 96.50% in the main game, and that is, of course, more than just good. If you decide to buy your free spins with the Buy a bonus feature, the RTP is 97.01%. In that case, the online casino will receive just under 3% of your wager.

How do you get the free spins? Two ways: 4 scatters in the main game OR the Buy a bonus feature.

When you play the main game, you activate the free spins, if you spin four or more scatters (diamonds).

If you don’t feel like going through the main game, you can buy the free spins right away thanks to the Buy a bonus feature (“Buffalo Bonus Bet”).

Of course, it’s not for free: you pay 100x the original bet. The advantage, though, is that you don’t need to wait till you (finally) spin the four scatters.

The free spins: choose how much risk you want to take or be surprised by the mystery choice.

Once you get to the free spins, you can select how many free spins you want and what the value of the starting multiplier will be. You have four options:

• 15 free spins with a starting multiplier of 1x
• 10 free spins with a starting multiplier of 5x
• 5 free spins with a starting multiplier of 10x
• Mystery Choice

The 4th option is the most exciting. The Mystery Choice.

It’s always a gamble: you are awarded 15, 10 or 5 free spins combined with a starting multiplier of 1x, 5x or 10x.

If you’re lucky, you’ll get 15 free spins AND a starting multiplier of 10x.

If you’re unlucky, then you’re left with only 5 free spins and a starting multiplier of x1.

Free spins bonus: pray for many winning combos and high multipliers for an adrenaline-infused spectacle

After each winning combination, your multiplier increases by +1. Especially now, you need many winning combos.

If you get more free spins at the start, you have more time to get a high multiplier at the end.

If you do have a high multiplier and you spin some sweet combos at the end of the free spins session (don’t forget that you can win up to 117,649 ways), then it goes sky-high.

Buffalo Rising Megaways slot – the variance (volatility) is medium to high

According to Blueprint Gaming, this online slot has a medium to high variance.

But it’s in your hands, my friend!

If you choose 15 free spins and a starting multiplier of 1, you run much less risk than if you go for 5 free spins with a starting multiplier of 15x.

You run the maximum risk with the Mystery Choice.

In short, what do you want?

If you choose for the Mystery Choice, you can land wins well above 1.000x the bet. If you are more cautious, then the top prizes will be considerably lower (but they’ll hit more often).
