Slot Summary

Released on June 6, 2024, Bison vs Buffalo gives Tom Horn Gaming's wildlife contest a 95.02% RTP and a Medium/High volatility profile. Its 40-line reel game is the entry stage rather than the final destination: Wild assistance and Random Multiplier events lead toward a Hold and Win round where locked Sun symbols carry values and Fixed Jackpots become available. The x18476.00 ceiling places the larger reward potential inside that bonus-led structure.

How It Plays

The base game uses 5 reels and 40 fixed paylines, with Wild symbols assisting ordinary combinations before the specialized reward events take control.

A Random Multiplier can alter a qualifying result without changing the underlying line structure, adding variation before the Hold and Win trigger appears.

Theme & Atmosphere

Bison vs Buffalo stages its contest through Animals, Nature, Wildlife, and Wild West themes, treating the two large animals as opposing prize figures.

Gems distinguish the reward side of the presentation, while the open-country setting keeps the focus on the named bison and buffalo confrontation.

Wild West Nature Gems Animals Wildlife

Features & Win Potential

Medium/High volatility and a 95.02% RTP accompany a base game where Wild symbols and the Random Multiplier provide the principal result modifiers.

Fixed Jackpots sit behind the Hold and Win mechanic, while Bonus Buy offers direct feature access instead of waiting for the required Sun-symbol landing.

Wild Symbol Medium/High Bonus Buy Hold and Win Random multiplier Fixed Jackpots

Bonus & Free Spins

Landing at least 6 Sun symbols starts Hold and Win. The triggering Suns lock in place, and further qualifying symbols occupy empty positions during respins.

Each locked symbol carries a reward, while completing every available position awards the Grand Jackpot and ends the collection objective at its maximum state.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium-High). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (95.02%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (18,476×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
