Blazing Bison Gold Blitz – Overview
Blazing Bison Gold Blitz is a Western-themed slot from Fortune Factory Studios, out in May 2023. The art is exactly what you'd expect: a bison on the prairie at sunset, orange and purple sky behind it.
It's a 6×4 grid with 4,096 ways to win. Default RTP is 96%, though some casinos run it lower (94%, sometimes 86.7%), so it's worth checking the version before you start. Bets go from $0.20 to $50 per spin. Max win is capped at 5,000× your stake.
The soundtrack is on the cinematic side. Wins trigger pretty loud animations across the usual bells, lucky 7s, and the bison.

Symbols & Paytable
Low symbols are royal cards 9–A with a wooden-look skin. Mid symbols: horseshoe, bell, lucky 7. The top symbol is the Golden Bison, which pays 5× your stake for six in a row.
Base Game Mechanics
The whole base game runs on the Collect mechanic. Every spin, you're watching reels 1 and 6 for the Lightning Collect. If it lands while Cash or Jackpot symbols are visible elsewhere on the reels, those values get added to your balance right away.
If the Collect lands but there's nothing on the reels to collect, you get a respin.
Bonus Features – Free Spins vs. Gold Blitz
Land 3+ Sheriff Star Scatters anywhere on the reels. You get an instant 1×–6× payout, then you pick between two bonus modes:
| Scatters Landed | Free Spins Option | Gold Blitz Option |
|---|---|---|
| 3 Scatters | 8 Free Spins | 2 Gold Blitz Spins |
| 4 Scatters | 12 Free Spins | 3 Gold Blitz Spins |
| 5 Scatters | 20 Free Spins | 5 Gold Blitz Spins |
| 6 Scatters | 30 Free Spins | 7 Gold Blitz Spins |
The Free Spins Path
Free Spins is the multiplier path. Reels get loaded with Multiplier Wilds at ×2, ×3, or ×5, and any win they're part of gets boosted by that value. Hit 2–6 Scatters during the bonus and you retrigger 5, 8, 12, 20, or 30 more spins.
The Gold Blitz Path
Gold Blitz strips out all regular symbols. Reels show only Cash, Jackpot, and Collect symbols, and every spin is guaranteed to have at least one Collect. So every spin pays something. The Collect just hoovers up whatever values are on screen.
Strategy Tips for Australian Players
The slot is widely available at offshore casinos that accept AUD. Bonus Buy isn't available to AU players for regulatory reasons, but you can still play it reasonably well.
- Start at $0.20–$1 per spin for your first 100–200 spins. You need to see how it swings.
- For the bonus pick: Free Spins if you want the bigger top end, Gold Blitz if you want every spin to pay.
- Check the RTP at the specific casino you're using. Operators choose which version of the game to load, and 86.7% is a real option.
- Wagering on welcome bonuses tends to sit at 30×–50×. Read the terms before claiming.
- The mobile version is the same game, nothing stripped out.
