Benefits of technology

[0009]In an embodiment, player interest may be maintained or increased by ordering the feature game outcomes to increase player anticipation or player enjoyment. For example, the outcomes of the feature games may be ordered so that bigger wins come later in the sequence of feature games. Player anticipation and excitement will therefore be increased, as players will learn to expect bigger wins as the sequence of feature games progresses.

Problems solved by technology

While feature games are enjoyable, therefore, providing an interesting variation on base game play, it can at times be difficult to maintain player interest.
