Abstract:
A gaming machine comprising a processor to execute a game displaying a matrix of symbol containing elements having a plurality of rows and a plurality columns; at least one column comprising a portion of a simulated rotatable reel of a plurality of said symbol containing elements; said simulated rotatable reel comprising sections of symbol containing elements displaying a plurality of symbols; said simulated rotatable reel including at least one section in which a consecutive run of two or more of said elements is populated by a first identical symbol so that, said first identical symbol being used for a first play of said game, a second identical symbol being randomly selected, the first identical symbol being replaced by the second identical symbol in said consecutive run of two or more of said elements, said second identical symbol being used for a second play of said game.

Claim (Index 19):
One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media, having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by a processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the processor to perform the algorithm steps of:\n storing, in a memory device, data representing a plurality of symbols and a plurality of reels for use during a game, each reel of the plurality of reels including a plurality of symbol containing elements, each symbol containing element configured to display a symbol, the plurality of reels including a first reel and a second reel including a consecutive run of symbol containing elements configured to display an identical symbol; storing, in the memory device, a look-up table including a subset of symbols of the plurality of symbols and a probability of selection with each symbol of the subset of symbols; storing, in the memory device, computer executable instructions including an algorithm for use in generating the game; accessing the data representing a plurality of symbols and a plurality of reels and generating the plurality of reels for use during the play of the game by: randomly selecting an identical symbol from the look-up table; generating the first reel including inserting the selected identical symbol into each symbol containing element of the consecutive run of symbol containing elements of the first reel prior to a spin of the first reel; generating the second reel including inserting the selected identical symbol into each symbol containing element of the consecutive run of symbol containing elements of the second reel prior to a spin of the second reel; displaying the plurality of reels on the game screen; spinning the plurality of reels including the first reel having the selected identical symbol in each symbol containing element of the consecutive run of symbol containing elements included in the first reel and the second reel having the selected identical symbol in each symbol containing element of the consecutive run of symbol containing elements included in the second reel; and stopping the plurality of reels to display an outcome of the play of the game.
