SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MULTI-STATE GAME FEATURES

A gaming system comprises game-logic circuitry and a display device that presents a wagering game having a plurality of states, where each state has substantially the same expected value, the same set of available outcomes, and a respective unique set of weight parameters associated with the set of available outcomes. The game-logic circuitry selects a first state for a first duration that has a first set of weight parameters, generates at least one game outcome from the available outcomes based on the first set of weight parameters and one or more random values, causes the display device to present the generated at least one game outcome, randomly selects a state for a second duration following the first duration, and generates one or more game outcomes through the second duration based on the respective set of weight parameters associated with the randomly selected state and one or more random values.
