Bison Battle Review

Bison Battle Reviewed January 20 2022 by Casinogamesonnet.com

Bison (a.k.a. buffaloes) have faced plenty of battles for survival in their existence. Whether needed for food or simply blocking railroad routes, they've been hunted for centuries. Through it all, though, bison have proven quite resilient and are still around. Perhaps this is why they appear in so many online slots.

Push Gaming's Bison Battle is yet another game where buffaloes are the stars of the show. This game boasts a maximum payout worth 50,000x the stake along with some exciting features.

Gameplay

Bison Battle takes place on a 5x5 grid and offers 20 paylines. It delivers payouts when you get at least three matching symbols in a payline. The eagle symbol is the one exception because it delivers payouts for just two matches.

Payouts and Max Win Potential

As mentioned in the introduction, you can score payouts worth up to 50,000x your total stake. Symbols include four low-paying card suits, a bear, eagle, mountain lion, and wolf. The eagle pays the most among this bunch at 50x the stake for five symbols. This game also offers a wild symbol in the golden bison.

RTP, Volatility and Betting Options

You can bet between €0.10 and €100 per spin. Volatility is high due to the huge maximum prize and lucrative features.

The Bison Battle RTP is 96.4% by default. It rises to 96.4% when you buy the Green Valley feature and 96.69% for the Ice Park feature. Do note, however, that online casinos can request RTP as low as 88.05%.

Game Features

The Bison Battle features include special symbols, Green Valley, Ice Park, and Bison Clash. You can also buy a couple of the features.

Bison Battles

The Green and Blue Bison symbols are scatters that can only appear on the first reel. Red Bison symbols can land on both reels 1 and 5.

If a Red Bison lands on reel 5 and Green Bison appears on reel 1 in the same row, they'll battle with each other and trigger Green Valley. Assuming a Red Bison appears on reel 5 and a Blue Bison on reel 1 in the same row, they'll clash and trigger Ice Park.

Migrating Bisons

The bison that land in reel 1 offer an instant prize worth between 5x and 2,500x your stake. If no Red Bison (reel 5) is available in the same row to battle with, the other bison migrate one spot to the right. They continue in this manner until exiting to the right of the screen.

Red Bison, meanwhile, feature a multiplier worth between 1x and 10x. If they don't have a fellow buffalo to fight with, they'll move one reel to the left after each spin.

Green Valley Free Spins

This feature delivers 8 free spins and sticky wild symbols (reels 2-4 only). Red Bison symbols can land on both reels 1 and 5. They deliver +1 free spin in addition to their multiplier ranging from 2x-10x. If the Red Bison lands on a sticky wild, it'll move across the screen and add its multiplier to other sticky wilds.

Ice Park Free Spins

This feature starts you off with 3 spins. Similar to Relax Gaming's Money Train 2, it resets the spins whenever a symbol lands. Available symbols include coins (reels 2-4 only), bison (w/ multiplier), and blanks. The coins become sticky when landing and deliver prizes at the end of the bonus.

Bison Clash

If Red Bison land in reels 1 and 5 (Green Valley only) in the same row, they'll fight each other. During the battle, they'll give you an instant prize plus their respective multipliers.

Feature Buy

You can purchase Green Valley for 75x your stake and Ice Park for 95x the stake at any time.

Final Thoughts on Bison Battle Slot

We've lost count of how many buffalo games there are in the online slots world. Push Gaming's Bison Battle does an excellent job of not being just another buffalo slot.

The clashes between the buffaloes before features are delivered adds some excitement. We also like how Push Gaming added both free spins and a Money Train 2-style bonus.

You might not be enamored with the simple gameplay. However, this slot is anything but basic when you get into the features. The 50k max payout only ramps up the excitement further. In summary, we highly recommend that you try this game.

Release Date

Bison Battle was released on January 20 2022.
