There are provided a gaming machine and method that utilize game-logic circuitry and a presentation assembly configured to present a plurality of symbol-bearing reels, an array, and a plurality of persistent elements. The plurality of reels are spun and stopped to land symbols from the reels in the array. In response to the landed symbols including at least one accumulation symbol, an animation of addition of the accumulation symbol to one of the plurality of persistent elements is presented. A random determination whether or not to trigger one or more game features is made. If the determination is to trigger the one or more game features, a bonus mode is entered and the one or more game features are implemented via the game-logic circuitry for subsequent spins of the game, for any free games awarded during the subsequent spins, or any combination thereof until the bonus mode is terminated.
