Yggdrasil Teams up With ReelPlay to Launch a Wild West Slot — Big Bucks Buffalo GigaBlox™

Apr 6, 2023 Artyom Ustinov
Yggdrasil, a leading iGaming development studio, is determined to lead the way to innovation by bringing its famous GigaBlox mechanics into another partnership. The collaboration with an Australia-based software game developer is responsible for the Big Bucks Buffalo GigaBlox™ slot. The two giants have worked together on several occasions, and their last game was Festival 10k Ways, released in January 2023.
Thanks to Yggdrasil’s Game Engagement Mechanics (GEM), a plethora of mega coin symbols, and a bonus respins feature; this Western-inspired game can award you prizes up to 8,737x your stake. Big Bucks Buffalo GigaBlox™ is a medium-high volatility slot with an RTP of 96%. It is laid across a 6x4 grid. However, the GigaBlox mechanics ensure that reels are randomly merged to create symbols sized 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4 that land on each spin. Interestingly, each icon increases in size (including coins and wilds), and each spin brings at least one GigaBlox reel.

Speaking of symbols, an eagle, moose, wolf, and buffalo are the high-paying ones. If you land three to six matching ones, you can win prizes that pay 2,5x–5x your bet. There is also a wild icon carrying the highest value of 7,5x for hitting a six-of-a-kind combination. The coin symbol is also significant. Once six of them hit the reels, they award three free spins, and the Bonus Respin feature activates. Each new coin icon that pops up on the reels afterward carries a multiplier with a value between 1x and 1,000x. However, if at least two 2x2 icons show up on the reels for the duration of the re-triggered bonus mode, this will activate the Mega Coin feature, which will, in turn, multiply all mutually combined multipliers. Lastly, Big Bucks Buffalo GigaBlox™ offers a Bonus Buy feature that allows you to purchase the respins for the value of 80x your bet where Mega Coins are already triggered. According to Yggdrasil’s head of product and program, Stuart McCarthy, ReelPlay has cemented its status as one of the company’s most successful partners over the last few years. Therefore, they are delighted with the release of yet another state-of-the-art slot featuring a familiar theme and the GigaBlox GEM offering the possibility of huge wins. The CEO of ReelPlay, David Johnson, commented that Big Bucks Buffalo GigaBlox showcases all the strengths you've come to expect from ReelPlay. Johnson added that the company has confidence new game could be a huge hit among players and operators alike.
