Abstract
An embodiment may involve selecting a set of symbols associated with an outcome event of a reel-based game. The reel-based game may be executed on behalf of a client machine, and selecting the set of symbols may involve spinning a plurality of reels to determine the outcome event. The embodiment may further involve determining that the set of symbols includes a predetermined symbol on a designated reel and does not include any winning combination. The embodiment may also involve, possibly in response to determining that the set of symbols includes the predetermined symbol on the designated reel and does not include any winning combination, replacing one or more symbols in the set of symbols with predetermined symbols such that the symbol set after replacement includes a winning combination.
