摘要： The present invention includes a variety of methods to issue awards based upon the order of appearance of symbols in the symbol matrix. An “In-A-Row” embodiment of the present invention displays symbols in random positions of the symbol matrix and issues awards for three or more same symbols appearing in sequential order. For example, the first symbol displayed is an “A,” the second symbol is a “B,” and the third, fourth, fifth and sixth symbols are “C”s. The sequential appearance of four “C” symbols results in an In-A-Row award.

摘要： A gaming device including a plurality of symbol generators adapted to generate a plurality of symbols at a plurality of symbol positions. In one embodiment, a player selects a first symbol position, the selected symbol position is activated and the gaming device reveals whether a terminator is associated with the selected symbol position. In this embodiment, the player continues selecting symbol positions (and the gaming device continues activating the selected symbol positions) until a terminator is revealed to be associated with a selected symbol position. After a terminator is revealed, the gaming device randomly generating a symbol at each of the activated symbol positions. The gaming device determines an outcome based on the symbols or combinations of symbols generated at the activated symbol positions and provides the player the determined outcome.

摘要： A gaming device including a plurality of reels having a plurality of symbols including one or more selectable symbols. The gaming device displays the selectable symbols on the reels when a triggering event occurs and enables the player to pick at least one of the selectable symbols appearing on the reels. The gaming device provides a value symbol or a wild symbol associated with the picked symbol when the player picks one of the selectable symbols. If the picked symbol reveals a value symbol, the gaming device provides a value associated with the value symbol to the player. If the picked symbol includes a wild symbol, the gaming device displays a wild symbol in at least one symbol position of the reel including the picked symbol. The gaming device evaluates any symbol combinations on the reels and provides an award associated with the wining symbol combinations to the player.
