Abstract
An embodiment may involve receiving, at a receiving component, an instruction; determining, by way of a random number generator (RNG), a set of symbols and a sync symbol; displaying, on a display component, the set of symbols in a two-dimensional array and the sync symbol in a preview space; and while there are pre-determined patterns of symbols in the two-dimensional array: replacing the pre-determined patterns of symbols in the two-dimensional array with vacant symbol positions; determining, by way of random selection by the RNG, whether replacement symbols to be placed in the vacant symbol positions are subject to synchronization, wherein the replacement symbols being subject to synchronization causes each of the vacant symbol positions to be filled with the sync symbol, and wherein the replacement symbols not being subject to synchronization causes each of the vacant symbol positions to be filled with further symbols determined by way of the RNG.
