Abstract: A method for a slot machine style game is disclosed. The method includes the steps of determining an outcome of the slot machine style game and displaying a plurality of game symbols corresponding to the outcome. At least one of the game symbols is a multiwild symbol, which comprises a wild symbol and has an award multiplier associated therewith. The method also includes the steps of determining whether at least a portion of the plurality of game symbols is a winning combination and when there is a winning combination determining a first award associated with the winning combination. In determining the first award, the multiwild symbol is treated as the wild symbol without the award multiplier. The method also randomly generates the award multiplier; determines a second award based on the first award and the award multiplier; and provides the second award to a player.
