Abstract
A gaming device including a plurality of positions displayed to the player. The gaming device includes a modifier and a symbol display which displays at least one symbol at one or more of the positions. Each symbol includes at least one game element. In a play of the game, the gaming device determines at least one of the game elements to be a designated element and enables the player to pick one of the positions. The gaming device displays at least one of the symbols at one or more of the positions and determines an outcome based on any winning combination of the symbols displayed at the positions. The processor modifies any determined outcome by the modifier when the designated element is displayed at the selected position. The modified outcome is provided to the player in that play of the game.
