Abstract
A slot game integrates a wheel positioned between one or more preceding reels and one or more subsequent reels. The game controller may dynamically populate the wheel with symbols from the outcome of the one or more preceding reels. The controller determines a symbol outcome for the wheel and performs pay evaluation based on applying the symbol outcome as positioned between the one or more preceding reel outcomes and the one or more subsequent reel outcomes. The game controller may perform cross-symbol mapping to map the symbol outcome to a subsequent reel.
