Buffalo Blox Gigablox Review

Yggdrasil allows all its partner studios to utilize whatever innovations they have come up with, and the time has come for YGS Master, Jelly, to try their hand in the Gigablox genre. Our first impression of Buffalo Blox Gigablox was highly positive, as it comes with a refreshing Native American-inspired visual presentation set in the great outdoors of North America.

On closer inspection however, some math model “flaws” revealed themselves. The 95 % RTP is a tad low for starters, and the 2,898x potential could have been higher as well. Getting gigablox on each spin is still entertaining though, and instant prizes up to 1,000x can be won from the base game. The prizes are boosted in the bonus round, up to 2,500x at best, and the Buffalo Spin ante bet increases your bonus chances.

Buffalo Blox Gigablox Slot Features

You can turn on/off the Buffalo Bet between base game spins, and turning it on makes each spin 25 % more expensive. The benefit is a higher chance of triggering the bonus round, but specifics about this are not revealed, unfortunately.

The premium animal symbols pay between 10 and 20 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the Wild steps in for pay symbols to help complete wins. You get Gigablox symbols on each spin, and these count as 1x1-sized symbols if part of a win.

You also get special coin symbols that sometimes serve as wilds, and these can land you instant prizes. Land between 6 and 20 coins to win the corresponding prize up to 1,000x your stake.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 5+ diamond scatters anywhere in view, and each triggering symbol gives you +1 or +2 free spins. The diamond scatters award +1 or +2 extra spins when they appear during the feature, and you can expect more frequent instances of the top-tier buffalo symbol. What’s more, the top instant coin prize is increased to 2,500x, and you need only 4 coins to win the smallest 2x prize.

You get to see a bit of the base game grind, before we trigger the bonus round with 6 diamond scatters at 0:41 into the 1:52-minute highlights video. We got 6 free spins for starters, and you can see how it all played out by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

We really enjoyed the North American forest visuals in Buffalo Blox Gigablox, and the gigablox feature does make the base game somewhat more interesting.

The instant coin prizes are a tad low though, and winning only 1,000x for 20 coins seems a bit stingy. A proper 5K or 10K top prize would have made this whole thing a lot more attractive.

It’s too bad that the math model sort of gets in the way of an otherwise decent game, and the 95 % RTP doesn’t help either. The bonus round can be over in a blink many times, but at least the top prize is increased to 2,500x your stake. The overall 2,898x potential only underscores the mediocrity of this installment, and being specific about ante bet benefits is always a good idea.

Pros

• Instant coin scatter prizes up to 1,000x
• FS w/ increased coin prizes up to 2,500x
• More top-tier buffalo symbols during FS
• Overall max win of 2,898x your stake

Cons

• 95 % RTP is below average
• Not specific about ante bet benefit
