1. A gaming system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory device that stores a plurality of instructions, that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
communicate data that results in a display, by a display device, of a first digit set comprising multiple digits;
communicate data that results in a display, by the display device, of a first lock covering a first one of the digits of the first digit set;
responsive to an occurrence of a first lock movement event, communicate data that results in a display, by the display device, of the first lock uncovering the first one of the digits of the first digit set, the first lock moving from the first one of the digits of the first digit set to a second one of the digits of the first digit set, and the first lock covering the second one of the digits of the first digit set; and
responsive to an occurrence of a first digit set triggering event, communicate data that results in a display, by the display device, of a digit set based on the digits of the first digit set that are not covered by the first lock at a time of the occurrence of the first digit set triggering event.
