Abstract
Certain embodiments provide for replacing all regular symbols located in respective symbol positions comprising a predetermined set of symbol positions of a symbol matrix (e.g., all the regular symbols on a reel of a reeled slot machine-type game) with at least one special symbol (e.g., a wild symbol which may be output as taking up the entirety of the reel) if the predetermined set of symbol positions (e.g., the symbol positions comprising the reel) satisfy a qualifying condition. In one embodiment the qualifying condition is that each regular symbol in a symbol position of the predetermined set of symbol positions is part of a respective winning combination of symbols (e.g., each symbol on the reel is part of a winning combination along an active payline) after an initial resolution of an outcome for a game event (e.g., after an initial resolution of a spin).
