8. A method of providing gaming options via an electronic gaming device comprising:
receiving via a credit device an item associated with a monetary value;
establishing via one or more processors a credit balance based at least in part on the received item;
receiving via a wager button a wager amount on a play of a game, wherein the wager amount is deducted from the credit balance;
displaying via the one or more processors utilizing one or more display areas one or more ticker based gaming structures where an initiated ticker game play structure includes a symbol that generates a prize every time the symbol passes a ticker a predetermined number of times where the predetermined number of times is greater than one;
wherein a first initiated ticker game play type has a first ticker located in a first ticker location on a first reel; and
wherein a second initiated ticker game play type has a second ticker located in a second ticker location on a second reel where the second ticker location is different than the first ticker location; wherein the credit balance is increased by any determined award amount associated with game play.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising initiating one or more ticker based gaming structures based on a received input.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising spinning one or more reels, the one or more reels including a plurality of symbols.

13. An electronic gaming system comprising:
a credit device configured to accept an item associated with a monetary value;
a user input device configured to enable a player to select a wager amount and initiate a game play, wherein the wager amount is subtracted from a credit balance funded at least in part via the credit device;
a server including a server memory and a server processor, the server processor configured to display a plurality of symbols in one or more display areas, the server memory including one or more ticker game play structures which include one or more ticker game type programs; and
the server processor configured to initiate the one or more ticker game play structures where an initiated ticker game play structure includes a symbol that generates an instant prize every time the symbol passes a ticker located on at least one display area of the one or more display areas a predetermined number of times where the predetermined number of times is greater than one; wherein the credit balance is increased by any determined award amount associated with game play.
14. The electronic gaming system of claim 13 , wherein the server processor is further configured to display the one or more ticker game play structures based on one or more criteria.
15. The electronic gaming system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more criteria is based on data from a random number generator.
16. The electronic gaming system of claim 14 , wherein the server processor is further configured to initiate one or more ticker game play structures based on one or more inputs.
17. The electronic gaming system of claim 13 , wherein the server processor is further configured to stop one or more ticker game structures based on one or more triggering events.
