Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention set forth systems, apparatuses and methods for combining reels in gaming devices. Accordingly, a gaming device can be configured to display a plurality of game elements in a grid that display game symbols from a plurality of reels according to random game outcome in response to a game initiation signal. When one or more predefined game conditions are satisfied, one or more rows or columns of game elements in the grid are moved to share game element locations of another row or column in the grid. In some instances, one or more of the symbols that left their respective game elements are replaced with additional game symbols. The resulting grid may then be evaluated to determine prizes associated with winning symbol combinations, including using one or both of the symbols combined in the single game element in the winning symbol combinations.
