Abstract:
A system for providing animation on reel games is disclosed. A gaming machine includes a plurality of reels each having symbols provided on an outer surface of each of the reels. A lighting system is configured to illuminate a selected symbol on at least one reel. A game controller generates a game outcome. A reel control unit determines the timing of illuminating of the selected symbol on the position of the symbol on the reel when it is illuminated.
