A wagering base game controlled by a processor in a gaming machine playing only one game symbol for game play in a display in response to a wager. The processor transforms the wagered-on only one game symbol to reveal only one random game result in the display. The revealed game result corresponds to a random one of a number of different game results for the wagered-on only one game symbol. The processor provides a credit in the wagering game when the revealed game result for the wagered-on only one game symbol provides an award other than a null award.
