Bison Rising Megaways Slot Overview

‍Bison Rising Megaways is a new casino slot from Blueprint Gaming where we return to the savannahs for some big-game hunting. While reskinning older slot games is very common in the iGaming industry, Blueprint has taken it to another level. Bison Rising Megaways can easily be mistaken for Buffalo Rising Megaways, which was released back in 2018, and has since become a popular game, much because of its Bonus Buy feature. We’ve waited patiently for a sequel, and they have now provided it!

Is it really a sequel, though? Not really. Blueprint has simply replaced “Buffalo” with “Bison”, so if you were excited about new features, we’d have to be the bearer of bad news. However, if you’re still keen to return to the savannahs or are entirely new to this game series, keep reading and get the full scoop!

Bison Rising Megaways is a video slot from Blueprint Gaming that features 6 reels, up to 7 rows, and up to 117649 ways to win. Above the reels, there are an additional 4 rows to help you make winning combinations. You can choose from a Min.bet of 0.10 and a Max.bet of 10. The game has a tremendous RTP of 96.5%, with an even higher RTP of 97.01% in the Bonus Buy feature. Bison Rising Megaways has high volatility and a massive max win of 50,000x.

Within this savannah gambling adventure, we have a couple of great features to help us along the way. The features are Tumble, Megaways, Wild Symbol, Mystery Symbol, Free Spins, and Bonus Buy. 

Bison Rising Megaways Slot Information

The game takes place in a desert in which we assume cowboys are roaming. The reels are filled with predators, and a bison with glowing eyes acts as the best symbol. Make sure to turn up the audio because beautiful native American music is playing in the background, which helps create a cozy environment.

A winning combination is created by landing 3 or more of the same symbol type (2 bison are enough) on adjacent reels, from left to right. Bison Rising Megaways can be played on common devices such as mobile phones and desktops.

The lower-paying symbols are 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. Connecting 6 of one of these pays 1x-1.5x. The higher-paying symbols include a moose, wolf, bear, and bison. The former 3 pays 2x-2.5x if you connect 6. The bison, however, is at another level. Creating a line of 6 bison pays a whopping 50x, so look out for that! You will also discover a golden bison, which is the game’s wild symbol. This substitutes for all other symbols except the scatter. The scatter is a pink diamond. Landing 4 of these will trigger the Free Spins. Now, let’s go over the features!

‍What is the max win in the slot Bison Rising Megaways?

You can win up to 50,000x the bet.

What features are available in the slot Bison Rising Megaways?

The features are Tumble, Megaways, Wild Symbol, Mystery Symbol, Free Spins, and Bonus Buy.

Tumble

Whenever you make a winning combination, the winning symbols are removed, and new ones will drop down. This continues until you make no more connections.

‍

Instead of having a set number of lines or ways, Megaways changes the conditions every spin. It does this by altering the rows, and at a maximum, you’ll see 6 reels and 7 rows. The highest achievable megaways in this slot is 117649 ways.‍

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol substitutes all other symbols except for the scatter, thus making it easier to create more winning combinations.

‍

Mystery symbols appear randomly in any position. When you land these, they will all reveal the same symbol. They can transform into any symbol except for the scatter.

‍

The Free Spins are triggered by landing 4 diamonds (scatters). Additional scatters award extra spins. When triggered, you will have the following 4 choices:

15 Free Spins, starting at a 1x multiplier.

10 Free Spins, starting at a 5x multiplier.

5 Free Spins, starting at a 10x multiplier.

Mystery Choice – random picks where you are awarded 5, 10, or 15 free spins and a starting multiplier of 1x, 5x, or 10x.

Each win during free spins will increase the multiplier by +1. Landing 3 scatters will award an extra 5 spins.

Bison Rising Megaways and its predecessor Buffalo Rising Megaways are both gorgeous and captivating games. Blueprint has done a great job completing this theme with fitting music, and we always appreciate it when providers put effort into things like that.

The megaways feature combined with a progressive multiplier is a recipe for success, as we have seen countless times in games like Majestic Gold Megaways and Into The Wild Megaways. We often complain at games for not having enough features to keep you engaged during base games. Even though Bison Rising Megaways only has the Mystery Symbols and the Free Spins, it’s by no means dull. The potential 117649 ways give this game enormous potential, and a big hit with the bison will net you a juicy win.

There are two main appeals for us in this game; the Free Spins and the RTP. The Mystery Choice feature in the bonus game is very intriguing. You can, of course, choose to play it safe and pick a predetermined set of spins and multiplier. But if you’re feeling extra brave, the Mystery Choice could potentially let you start with 15 spins and a 10x multiplier. It could, of course, also give you 5 spins and a 1x multiplier, so use it with caution. Then we have the RTP. During regular play, it's at 96.5%, which is very good and competitive with the industry. If you choose to buy the bonus, it’s even better, with an RTP of 97.01%.

The max win of 50,000x is, of course, a big attraction. While this doesn't seem like a very realistic number for this slot, there's no question that it has very high potential with its progressive multiplier. And now, let’s discuss the elephant in the room. Yes, this is a straight copy of Buffalo Rising Megaways, as far as we can see. It has the same features, symbols, RTP, and max win. However, that doesn't take anything away from this being a great slot, but we would have appreciated an extra feature and some new symbols!

Bison Rising Megaways is a slot where we get to explore the African savannah and do some big-game hunting in our hunt for the 50,000x max win.
