Wild Buffalo Fortune Wheel Bonus Buy Slot Review

Getting a nose job can transform the way a woman looks 🐽👃. The procedure is a quick and easy one, in the great scheme of things, but the results can be dramatic. Don’t believe me? Just take a look at before and after pics of Courtney Love or Iggy Azalea.

I’m not advocating plastic surgery – that’s not the gist of this intro; the point I’m trying to make is that sometimes a small adjustment can have a big effect. Like the addition of a Buy Bonus for a slot game. 😉

Wild Buffalo Fortune Wheel Bonus Buy slot from Netgame has an extra addition that its predecessor couldn’t offer. Is it going to elevate the newcomer as a result? There’s only one way to find out.

Gameplay

Another day, another new and exclusive game for our cherished BitStarz players. This one comes from NetGame, and it offers 1,024 paylines, a 96.26% RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots. RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate., a medium to high volatility rate, a 4,000x max multiplier, and a $240,000 top prize.

But it’s not all good, though. You can’t play with Litecoin – OK, that’s not the end of the world. But if you place importance on design, as I do (I know, I’m alone in this), then you’ll be equally offended by the hate crime, which is how the animal symbols look.

Plus, there’s this annoying pop-up that’s pushing alternative games. It surfaces after a few seconds of inattentiveness, and you have to click somewhere on the screen to banish it to Hell (not that the respite lasts very long).

The Wild replaces all symbols that aren’t Scatters or Wheel symbols. Wilds can carry 2x or 3x multipliers and they appear on reels 2 to 4.

The Wheel symbol is needed to trigger the Fortune Wheel Bonus – more on that in the Features section.

Features

FORTUNE WHEEL BONUS:

Landing 3 or more Wheel symbols gets you into this action. You get to spin a Wheel that can award Free Spins, multipliers, and extra spins of the Wheel, plus you can upgrade symbols by collecting Golden Buffalos.

The big daddy of all the prizes on the Wheel are the Jackpots. The Major Jackpot pays 500x, and the Grand Jackpot pays 3,000x.

All segments of the Wheel – other than the Free Spins one – award an extra spin when you land on them. After any spin, the value of the prizes on the Bonus Wheel is upgraded and you can score a maximum of 5 spins on the Wheel.

FREE SPINS:

You enter this round using the dedicated segment on the Bonus Wheel. As for how many spins you get, that’s determined by the number of Wheel symbols that initially activated the Wheel Bonus round: 3, 4, or 5 Wheels award 8, 15, or 20 spins, respectively.

Golden Buffalos that you collected during the Wheel Bonus, and any that you collect during Free Spins, are reflected in a meter above the grid (it’s not there in the base game).

As you work your way up the meter, you’ll be able to upgrade symbols to Buffalos (which are higher than eagles, cougars, wolves, and bears).

Wilds that land during Free Spins will carry multipliers.

BUY BONUS:

Pay 70x for a spin of the Fortune Wheel.

Performance

The game played perfectly on all of my devices and browsers.

Maximum Win

Betting starts at $0.30 and is capped at $60. The max multiplier is 4,000x, and the game’s potential payout is $240,000.

Conclusion

The base game experience doesn’t offer much in the way of entertainment or money-making possibilities, so you’ll probably end up using the Buy Bonus, as I did, to open up more avenues.

The Wheel is the gateway to better opportunities, and 70x isn’t the most hectic amount, considering you can get these runs where you score extra spins on the Wheel, which might culminate in Free Spins or even a Jackpot.

Of course, it’s a bitter pill if a single spin on the Wheel doesn’t yield much, but them’s the breaks. This is gambling, after all.

If I had to describe the money-making potential of the game, I’d say it was more modest than earth-shattering, but that was my experience at the time of reviewing.

The precursor to this game is a version without a Buy Bonus (Wild Buffalo Fortune Wheel slot), however, that game also came up short in terms of its stats (1,300x max multiplier, $39,000 top prize, medium to high volatility rate).

Clearly, the latest iteration is a big step up.
