The spirit of the American frontier rides again (and again) with Buffalo Gold Revolution, another continuation of Aristocrat’s iconic Buffalo series. If you’ve spun through the original Buffalo Gold, you’ll feel right at home here — only this time, the stakes have been raised thanks to a shiny new Bonus Wheel and the addition of progressive jackpots. Staying true to its roots, the game maintains its simple prairie aesthetic while quietly layering in new mechanics that make the classic setup a little more unpredictable.
At its core, Buffalo Gold Revolution sticks to the familiar layout: a 5x4 grid with All Ways Pays in full effect, meaning 1,024 ways to land a win on any given spin. Bets start at just 0.75, making it accessible enough even though the enhanced features mean slightly higher starting increments compared to earlier Buffalo versions.
Fans of Aristocrat’s long-running catalogue will recognise the approach to evolving a classic. Other well-known titles like Buffalo Gold, Buffalo Grand, and Buffalo Diamond have similarly leaned into minor but effective tweaks, and Buffalo Gold Revolution continues that tradition without losing the original appeal.

Buffalo Gold Revolution keeps the symbol selection comfortably familiar. The lower-paying group includes the usual suspects — royal card symbols — while the higher-paying lineup is made up of the American wilderness’s finest.

Special symbols deserve a mention of their own. The Wild symbol, represented by the sunset, substitutes for all regular symbols except scatters. Scatter symbols, depicted as gold coins, trigger the Bonus Wheel when three or more land anywhere on the reels. During the bonus, Gold Buffalo Head icons become crucial for potentially transforming other animal symbols into buffaloes.
Landing three or more scatter symbols brings the Bonus Wheel into play, and this is where things could get interesting. The wheel includes wedges offering credit prizes, progressive jackpots, gold buffalo heads, and entry to free spins. Every spin that doesn’t land on "Free Games" earns you another go, and by the fifth spin, the wheel will automatically trigger Free Games regardless.
Starting off with a stash of Gold Buffalo Heads from the wheel could be a major advantage, as collecting 15 heads during the bonus round replaces nearly all medium-paying symbols with buffalos.
Free spins are activated via the Bonus Wheel, with a base award of 8 spins for three triggering scatters. Additional scatters could award more spins. In the free spins, all Gold Buffalo Heads collected transform animal symbols into buffalos permanently for the rest of the round. Retriggers are possible, offering the same number of spins awarded initially.
There’s more than just coin wins hiding in the Bonus Wheel. Progressive jackpot wedges are also lurking, offering the potential for a massive payout, even from a modest bet.
Between bonus triggers, the base game could occasionally throw players a lifeline: a random conversion where 1 to 4 of the semi-premium animal symbols (like eagles or wolves) turn into buffalos for a single spin.
If Buffalo Gold Revolution caught your eye, you might also want to look into Buffalo Blitz and Buffalo on Fire!, both of which deliver a similar all-action style with a slightly different twist on the bonus mechanics. You can find all these titles at Heart Bingo.
