  • Publication number: 20230316856
    Abstract: A gaming machine, system and method providing variable position display capable of display movement and an extendable screen responsive to gaming conditions. The gaming machine includes a cabinet, a variable position display, an extendable display screen, and a controller. The variable position display rotates, tilts, pans, or some combination of translation, rotation, tilting and panning, in relation to the cabinet and in response to at least one or more predefined gaming conditions. The controller initiates a movement sequence movement of the variable position display, from a first position to a second position, and initiates the game program tailored to retractably extend the extendable display screen with respect to the cabinet relatively to the movement of the variable position display, and present the game and game outcomes of the game on the variable position display in the second position.

  • Publication number: 20230123885
    Abstract: A slot game integrates a wheel positioned between one or more preceding reels and one or more subsequent reels. The game controller may dynamically populate the wheel with symbols from the outcome of the one or more preceding reels. The controller determines a symbol outcome for the wheel and performs pay evaluation based on applying the symbol outcome as positioned between the one or more preceding reel outcomes and the one or more subsequent reel outcomes. The game controller may perform cross-symbol mapping to map the symbol outcome to a subsequent reel.
