A game including wheel means capable of rotating in both a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction and wheel control means operative to selectively control the rotational position of the wheel means in both the clockwise and counterclockwise directions. A method for controlling an indicator wheel including rotating a wheel having a plurality of segments in a first direction until a predetermined segment is aligned with a pointer and then rotating the wheel in a second direction opposite to the first direction. In certain embodiments, the wheel can be rotated again in the first direction after it has been rotated in the second direction.
