Gaming device with rotating display and indicator therefore

   
   

The present invention provides a mechanical display and indication for gaming devices and includes various embodiments, each of which have a number of elements in common. First, the embodiments each include a rotating set of symbols or indicia. Second, each of the embodiments includes a translating indicator, such as an arrow. The symbols rotate, appear and disappear from the player's view. In this manner, the player sees each of the symbols and hopes that the gaming device awards the symbol having the highest or best value. The one or more indicators move in a sequence to point out or indicate one of the symbols or one of the groups of symbols. The indicators provide a second random, visual element to the outcome, wherein the player's attention must account for both, the changing symbols and the moving indicators. The symbol eventually indicated produces, at least in part, a game outcome.
