Abstract

Disclosed is a new bonus game for reel-based slot machines. The bonus game is an embedded slot game, with one embodiment animating miniature reels inside the primary game symbol. Each embedded slot game may have its own progressive, or may be tied into the progress associated with the primary game. Each embedded slot game will have its own paytable, and may be a miniature version of a well-recognized full-sized slot game.
