  • indicia of a plurality of spinning reels employed in a base game, wherein the outcome of the indicia of spinning reels in the base game define a base game award, if any;

    indicia of at least one spinning reel employed as a first base award modifier, wherein the outcome of the at least one spinning reel indicia in the first base award modifier defines a first modifier award, if any; and

    wherein the first modifier award adjusts the base game award; and

    indicia of at least one additional spinning reel employed as a second base award modifier;

    wherein the outcome of the at least one addition spinning reel indicia in the second base award modifier defines a second modifier award, if any; and
