Set against a canyon backdrop the reels feature A to 9 royal values plus elks, wolves and brown bears. The best standard symbol is the buffalo which pays 1, 2, 10, 25 or 50 times your stake if you land 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 on adjacent reels on the same spin. There’s also a wild.

The MegaWays game engine delivers plenty of action as usual. That action can be pretty feisty too. The variance here is in the medium to high range with maximum wins of 10,000 times your stake on every free spin.

The MegaWays game engine isn’t to all tastes. If you do like the varied action it can offer, then Buffalo Rising MegaWays is certainly worth a look. Get on a roll with the symbol drop multipliers and these marauding buffaloes could deliver a stampede of coins.
