Scan Steps
- Buffalo Link has a bonus feature that is triggered by accumulating buffalo heads. The buffalo head counter begins at 100 and the feature must hit before 1800.
- The free feature triggers at a random point between 100 and 1800. The feature can either be the hold & spin feature or the 8 free games feature. The hold & spin pays more consistently (but is still super volatile), while the 8 free games feature is truly feast or famine. Unless you get retriggers, you will usually make almost nothing. That said, retriggering to 100+ free games isn’t unheard of, and you can often hit the hold & spin feature multiple times during the free spins making it potentially much more profitable than the single hold & spin feature.
- In the hold & spin feature, you need to fill the board by collecting 20 buffalos to win the grand jackpot. It’s very common for the machine to tease you by landing 19, so don’t get too excited thinking that it is likely to hit the jackpot.
- Use bet-level check trick to view counters at all bets (without paying).
Exit Rule
It is recommended to simply avoid checking this game due to the large swings of non-profitable payouts, unless you have a rare find with the #'s in 1600+.
