A gaming device includes a processor and a memory storing symbol data, trigger probability data for wager options, and instructions. The symbol data includes reel strips including positions dynamically configurable with trigger symbols associated with feature games, and trigger symbol sets including different versions of the trigger symbols and corresponding to the wager options. The instructions, when executed, cause the processor to receive a selected wager option; configure the reel strips by selecting a trigger symbol from the trigger symbol set corresponding to the selected wager option for the dynamically configurable positions; select symbols from the configured reel strips for display in symbol positions; control display of the selected symbols; and upon the selected symbols including a trigger symbol associated with a feature game, determine whether the feature game is triggered based on the trigger probability data for the selected wager option and an identity of the trigger symbol.

Display screen or portion thereof with transitional graphical user interface

Gaming devices, and methods for operating them, are provided that may display an attract mode display that includes one or more bonus markers and a plurality of denomination markers. One of the denomination markers may be highlighted, and a bonus prize associated with a bonus marker and the currently highlighted denomination marker may be determined and displayed in a region of the display associated with that bonus marker. The display may be controlled to display a denomination transition in which the highlighted denomination marker reverts to a non-highlighted representation and the next denomination marker is highlighted. In conjunction therewith, a bonus transition may be displayed in which the bonus prize displayed in association with at least one bonus marker is changed to a bonus prize associated with both that bonus marker and the newly highlighted denomination marker. Such operations may be repeated one or more times, if desired.
