A gaming machine for playing a basic game and bonus game is set forth.

The basic game includes a basic game pay schedule and at least one start-bonus outcome. The bonus game is entered upon the occurrence of a start-bonus outcome in the basic game. The bonus game has a bonus game payout percentage that is variable with the wager amount such that the bonus game payout percentage changes in response to variations in the wager amount.
