Buffalo Diamond
Aristocrat · Persistent Diamond Free-Game Counters
How the game works and what to check
Start with the documented Buffalo Diamond feature
Buffalo Diamond uses colored diamond collections that build free-game value associated with different multipliers, creating several persistent states across bet levels.
Check that the game matches this guide. Read the help screen, note the bet and denomination, and check what stays on the screen after each spin. A different version may have different rules.

Read the number before the artwork
Buffalo Diamond uses colored diamond collections that build free-game value associated with different multipliers, creating several persistent states across bet levels.
The green, blue and purple diamond counters and the bet level they belong to.
Do not compare counters from different bet levels as though they are the same state.
Read all visible color counters, confirm the active bet, and separate 2x/3x/4x feature value rather than combining them into one generic count.
Colored multiplier counters
Different diamond colors correspond to different free-game multiplier tiers. The collected counts remain on the machine between sessions.
Why bet level matters
The machine can track separate state by bet level, so a strong-looking counter must be matched to the bet state that generated it.
On Buffalo Diamond, machine setup, denomination, bet required for the feature and which game or bet the progress belongs to can change the conclusion. Anything not verified belongs in the uncertainty column.
Machine checks
All color counters, active bet, feature mapping and which game or bet the progress belongs to. Use the machine help screen as the controlling rules reference for the machine in front of you and preserve the pre-spin and post-award state when possible.
