When you play Eagle Bucks for the first time, you tend to notice a familiar theme to the game - that of buffalos, wolves and eagles. This theme, focussing on the wildlife in the US desert has become more and more popular in casinos, due to the success of the original Buffalo slot machine, made by Aristocrat Gaming.
Eagle Bucks slots is a classic 5x3 reel game made by Ainsworth Gaming with 20 pay-lines. The game features a free spin bonus round which can be re-triggered. The theme is very similar to the classic Buffalo slots, although the game-play, the features and the mathematics are all completely different..
As far as Ainsworth slots go (I'm generally not a fan, I'm afraid), I find Eagle Bucks to be one of the better ones. It doesn't really grab me, but I did enjoy playing for 10 or 15 minutes before I decided to move on.
I also like the sounds that play when you hit a winning pay-line involving the Eagle symbol (which is the high paying symbol in this game, as you would expect). When this happens, you get a banko playing, which is kind of cool and similar to the way on Buffalo slots, you here the famous 'Buffalo!' shout.
When the bonus symbols come in, you get a pretty decent sound also. This is important as it helps raise the excitement levels in anticipation that you will get three of them and trigger the bonus.
One thing they got wrong though, is that if did not hit a bonus symbol on the first 4 reels, but one comes in on the fourth, this sounds still occurs. This is annoying, because at this stage you know it is impossible to hit the bonus, because you can't get three of them, but it still gives you that sounds effect as if something good has happened.
Clearly this game has not been tested by serious slot players who would have picked up on this straight away and got them to change it.
Yes, this is indeed another game that is trying to take advantage of our love of the classic Buffalo slots range, by Aristocrat, which is by far the most successful series of games made.
If you live in countries like the US, Canada or Australia, you will not be able to play Eagle Bucks slots for cash online, due to regulations. You can, though, still find very similar (and better games, imo) at several online casino. Please see our real money slots page to discover the nest place to play for cash.

This Eagle Bucks slot game, by Ainsworth Gaming, is found in casinos all over the world, including Las Vegas. I have to say, when I have seen this game in Vegas, I rarely see people playing it and if I do, they only play it for a short while.
Interestingly, these games were pretty popular when they first came out, as people were curious about them. But, I have noticed that they are nowhere near as popular these days and some casinos are removing them.
I really hope the company can improve the games, because they are so close to being good, but they are not quite there. It would be so good, though, if we were to get 'another Aristocrat' out there in the casinos, making games as good as Buffalo, Where's the Gold, Jaguar Mist and Wicked Winnings, so fingers crossed they can do it.
Game Play
Eagle Bucks video slot was developed by Ainsworth Gaming, featuring 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paying lines. You can adjust the number of active lines to 1, 10 or 20, and for a full experience itβs recommended you play max lines on every spin.
With a strong Native American/wildlife theme, Eagle Bucks employs animal symbols characteristic for the area: a buffalo, a coyote, a buck and an eagle. You make sure to keep an eye on the eagle and the logo, as these are the Wild and the Scatter, respectively. Eagle Bucks slot comes complete with a free spins round, a gamble feature and extra Wilds.
To activate the free spins, you need to land at least 3 Scatters on a single spin, anywhere on screen. Once you trigger the round, there are two possibilities awarded randomly: a set of conventional free spins or a set of free spins with a fixed eagle Wild on the fifth reel. During free spins, additional Wilds can appear on reels 2, 3 and 4 and expand to cover entire columns. Free spins can be re-triggered with 3 more Scatters and you can get 5 spins extra.
Landing 5 eagles on a pay-line will get you 1,000 credits, but the free spins round and expanding Wilds may raise the payout to a stunning amount of 16,520,000 credits.
