1. A gaming device operable under the control of a processor, said gaming device comprising:
- a game;
a plurality of multi-component offers in the game, each of said multi-component offers including a plurality of components, each of said components including a plurality of sub-components;
a plurality of values in the game, wherein said values are associated with the components and the value for each component is based on the sub-components of said component;
a component acceptor for the game, said component accepter operable with said processor to enable a player to independently accept each of the components;
a display device for the game, said display device operable with said processor to display each of the multi-component offers to the player; and
an award in the game, said award adapted to be provided to the player based on the values of the accepted components when a predetermined number of components have been accepted or when there are no multi-component offers remaining.

Abstract
A gaming device which provides a plurality of multi-component offers to a player and displays each offer to the player. Each multi-component offer includes a plurality of components having sub-components. The player can independently accept each component. Once a player accepts a component, the player receives a value based on the sub-components associated with that accepted component. The player continues to play the bonus game until the player has accepted all of the components in the offers or until there are no offers remaining. The gaming device then provides an award to the player based on the values of the accepted components of the offers.
