Abstract
A method of gaming includes conducting game rounds until an end condition is met, wherein each game round includes selecting symbols from a set of game symbols using a random number generator. The selected symbols are displayed on a display, and if they include one or more of a set of first symbols of the game symbols, a corresponding first symbol for each included first symbol is added to a first symbol display area. If the selected symbols include a second symbol, all occurrences of at least one first symbol are then removed from the first symbol area. The method also includes determining if a first end condition is met when the combined total of first symbols in the first symbol display area reaches a defined number, or if a second end condition is met when all occurrences of at least one first symbol are removed from the first symbol area results in no first symbols being in the first symbol area.
