    摘要: Gaming systems, methods, and machines provided herein may be used to provide bonus games that are associated with two different classes of awards, e.g., one or more first awards and one or more second awards. The first award(s) may generally be much more desirable to players than the second award(s), e.g., the first awards may be large-denomination jackpot awards, whereas the second awards may be small-denomination credit awards, e.g., non-jackpot awards. During play of such bonus games, selection of a stop position associated with a second award may cause that stop position to be instead associated with one of the one or more first awards for future play of the bonus game, thereby increasing the opportunities to win a first award in subsequent play of the bonus game.

    摘要: A gaming machine provides a base game, from which a hold and spin feature game is triggered when a determined number of configurable symbols are displayed in a base game outcome. When the feature game is triggered, the configurable symbols are held in place on the display and the player is provided one or more spins during the feature game in which to collect additional configurable symbols. Any additional configurable symbols are retained on the display during subsequent spins until the feature game is completed. At the end of the feature game, the player is awarded a prize based on the values carried by the configurable symbols. An ante bet entitles to player to additional game instances in the hold and spin feature game. The additional game instances duplicate the configurable symbols that trigger the feature game, but are played independently from one another during the hold and spin feature.

    摘要: A gaming system that provides a player symbol set selection feature including a plurality of simultaneously displayed separate player selectable symbol sets for a play of a game. For the play of the game, enables the player to select one of the displayed symbol sets and after the player selection, the gaming system determines and causes each of the symbol sets (including the player selected symbol set and the other non-player selected symbol sets) to display a separate randomly determined outcome for that symbol set for that play of the game. The gaming system provides the player any determined awards for the player selected symbol set and additionally compares any determined awards for the player selected symbol set and any determined awards for the other (non-player selected) symbol sets for that play of the game. Based on that comparison, the gaming system can provide the player one or more comparison awards.
