Abstract
An electronic gaming system includes a processor that is configured to display a keno card during a base game. The keno card includes a plurality of player selectable spots, and each spot includes a number. The system receives a player selection of one or more spots. During a random selection of numbered balls, the processor determines whether at least one ball of the plurality of balls includes a feature game trigger. A ball that includes the feature game trigger may be different from other balls produced by the random selection, in that the ball is gold colored (or otherwise visually distinct). If the ball including the feature game trigger matches at least one player selected spot, the processor may mark the player selected spot on the keno card as a matched spot and/or convert the spot to a cash or prize value. A feature game may also be triggered.
