A method of operating a gaming device to play an expanding halo reels game may include the steps of: Displaying a plurality of reels, each of the reels comprising a plurality of symbols; receiving a wager; spinning the reels; stopping the reels; evaluating the stopped reels for a winning combination of symbols; activating a first halo when there is a winning combination of symbols, the first halo comprising a plurality of symbols that surround at least a portion of the reels; moving the first halo with respect to the reels; stopping the first halo; evaluating the stopped first halo and reels for a winning combination of symbols; and terminating game play when there is no winning combination of symbols.

Expanding halo reels game

A single reel game includes a single reel having a plurality of symbols that are adjacent to one another. The single reel then moves and follows a track that displays the symbols in a spatial order. The single reel is then stopped at a starting reel stop that provides a reference point for stopping the single reel. A win window displays the plurality of the single reel symbols. A payline is then overlaid on the symbols within the win window. The single reel game also includes a paytable that lists a plurality of payout prizes for each combination of symbols along the payline. A prize is awarded when the single reel game symbols along the payline match the paytable combination of symbols.
