Abstract
A gaming machine comprising a game controller that enhances a prize won from a game outcome when a first special symbol occurs in the game outcome. The appearance of the first special symbol in the game outcome causes the game controller to further enhance the game prize if a second special symbol also appears in the game outcome. The first or second special symbols may further be used to substitute for another symbol in the game outcome, so as to create a winning game outcome.
