Abstract
A gaming device includes a display, a processor, and a memory storing a plurality of sets of reel strips which include configurable and non-configurable symbols. A free game series is initiated responsive to a trigger condition being met in a base game. A player selects from among a plurality of options defining a number of free games and a threshold number of configurable symbols that sets an additional feature trigger condition. The options are arranged such that for relatively more free games, the threshold number of configurable symbols increases. When the additional feature trigger condition is met, a plurality of additional feature game instances are initiated. The configurable symbols are held in place for feature game instances.
