ABSTRACT:
In accordance with one or more embodiments, a slot machine comprises at least one display device operable to display at least one indicium. The indicium defines an outcome for a game. The display device is further operable to update the indicia displayed on the one or more display devices based on a signal of a processor. The slot machine further comprises a means for moving the at least one display device. For example, the one or more display devices may be moved about an axis in a circular or curvilinear path, relative to a viewing perspective. In other embodiments, a slot machine comprises at least one display device operable to display at lease on indicium defining an outcome for a game, wherein a left edge of the display device defines at least a portion of perimeter of a left base of a cylindrical shape and a right edge of the display device defines at least a portion of a perimeter of a right base of the cylindrical shape.
