Game overview
Buffalo Gold is a slot game developed by Aristocrat as an evolution of the original Buffalo title. The game builds on the core reel-based structure of its predecessor while introducing additional bonus mechanics designed to extend gameplay and alter outcome distribution.
The base game uses a traditional reel layout with fixed paylines and symbol combinations. Its defining feature is the bonus round, where specific symbols become locked in place, allowing repeated respins that can significantly change the payout dynamics of a single bonus sequence.
Buffalo Gold is typically classified as a medium-to-high volatility slot. Base game outcomes tend to be less frequent, while bonus rounds can concentrate a larger portion of the game’s potential value. This behaviour is determined by the game’s internal mathematical model.
The visual theme continues the wildlife concept established in the original Buffalo game, with gold-toned symbols and enhanced visual effects used to distinguish bonus interactions. These thematic elements do not influence the underlying probability mechanics.
From a technical standpoint, Buffalo Gold operates using a random number generator (RNG) that ensures each spin and bonus event is independent. All features function within fixed parameters defined by the game’s rules and payout structure.
