Bison Moon

Game Review

The game in question features a ‘blood moon’ aesthetic, and the developers have created a cartoonish North American animal release that doesn’t stand out significantly. The high-value Wild tends to land in stacks, and a full screen awards a substantial potential payout. This adds excitement to the base game, which is otherwise fairly standard.

The sunset valley backdrop has semi-blurred visuals, resembling an amateur aquarelle painting. Animals like bears, eagles, and wolves appear as symbols. While not innovative, the Link&Win feature offers a decent full-grid jackpot. The bonus round includes mega symbols, potentially leading to larger payouts and feature triggers.

Game Features

The premium animal symbols offer payouts for landing five of a kind, with the bear symbol being the highest paying among them. The bear is surpassed only by the Wild symbol, which provides a substantial payout for five on a payline. The Wild also substitutes for other symbols to complete winning combinations.

Players can activate the ante bet feature between spins, adding extra Link&Win moon symbols to the reels. However, this increases the cost per spin. Activating the ante bet feature requires a higher wager per spin. You need at least six Link&Win moon symbols to trigger the Link&Win feature.

The triggering Link&Win symbols remain sticky on a cleared grid, revealing cash prizes or jackpots. Players start with respins, and only blanks or new Link&Win symbols may land. New Link&Win symbols also become sticky, resetting the respins. A significant jackpot is awarded for filling the grid with symbols.

The Free Spins Bonus Round is triggered by landing scatters, awarding free spins. The middle reels combine into a mega block that counts as multiple symbols of the same type. Landing a scatter mega block awards extra free spins, and a Link&Win mega block triggers the Link&Win feature.

Review Summary

From the North American animal theme to the Link&Win feature and mega symbol bonus round, similar elements have been seen before. However, that's common, and not every game can be groundbreaking. The visual presentation is somewhat bland, but some players may find it engaging.

The wild offers a high value, potentially leading to base game payouts, but the ante bet seems expensive. The benefit of this bet, if there is any, is not well specified. Both bonus rounds can provide exciting moments, and the overall potential payout is sufficient. Not groundbreaking, but decent enough.
