GAMING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A GAME MODIFIER

摘要

A gaming system and method in which before, during and/or after one or more plays of a game, the gaming system randomly activates a game modifier generator. The activated game modifier generator randomly selects one of a plurality of different game modifiers. Following the random selection of a game modifier, the gaming system determines a duration for which the selected game modifier will be activated. For the determined duration, based on the selected game modifier, the gaming system modifies zero, one or more aspects, parameters or features of zero, one, or more plays of the game. Such modified aspects, parameters or features may result in the player winning additional awards in the plays of the game and/or winning awards in plays of previously unavailable bonus games.
