Original Abstract Submitted
disclosed, in one example, includes gaming machine configured to present reels associated with a first array. the reels bear symbols. the gaming machine animates, in a second array positioned above the first array, vertical trails, each trail having a randomly-selected, variable number of secondary game symbols. a separate award symbol is positioned above each trail. the gaming machine conducts a series of game spins, where for each spin the reels land some of the secondary game symbols via the first array. the gaming machine clips a portion of symbols from one or more trails based on a number of matching ones of the secondary game symbols that landed via the first array. the gaming machine further animates a drop of an award symbol toward a win line at the bottom of the second array. if an award symbol reaches the win line, the game-logic circuitry awards an award value.
