  • Patent number: 8771055
    Abstract: Certain examples disclose a gaming system comprising a display, a symbol selector, a symbol evaluator and a symbol modifier. The example symbol selector is arranged to select a plurality of sets of symbols for display on the display. The example symbol evaluator is arranged to determine whether the displayed symbols include any winning symbol combination. The example symbol modifier is arranged to, upon a determination that the displayed symbols include any winning symbol combination, repeatedly apply a modification rule to at least one of the plurality of sets of symbols until the displayed symbols do not include any winning symbol combination.

  • Publication number: 20130337884
    Abstract: A gaming system is disclosed that comprises a selector arranged to select a plurality of symbols for display in a plurality of display position groups. The gaming system is arranged to facilitate selection of at least one display position group, and so as to make symbols in the selected display position group(s) less visible than symbols in other non-selected display position groups. The gaming system is also arranged so as to determine a first game outcome based on the visible symbols. After the first game outcome is determined, the symbols in the selected display position group(s) are made as visible as symbols in the non-selected display position groups, and the system then determines a second game outcome based on all symbols now visibly displayed.
