Abstract
There is provided a gaming system, gaming machine, and method that utilize a presentation assembly configured to present a plurality of reels and an array. The plurality of reels bear a plurality of symbols including clusters of multiple value-bearing symbols. The reels are spun and stopped to land symbols from the plurality of symbols in the array. In response to the landed symbols including a triggering combination of clusters of value-bearing symbols, each cluster is disbanded by animating distribution of the value-bearing symbols in each cluster to different positions in the array. The presentation assembly presents an award based at least in part on the distributed value-bearing symbols.
