A gaming terminal (1) and a method for playing a wagering game utilizing a two-way cascading symbol feature are disclosed. The wagering terminal has first and second displays, with a first game outcome displayed as a plurality of symbols (14) on the first display (15). The symbols (14) are analyzed to determine if they satisfy a predetermined condition. All symbols satisfying the condition are added to the second display (17). The symbols (16) in the second display (17) then are analyzed for a winning combination. If no winning combination exists, the game is over. A winning combination awards the player credits, before removing the winning symbols from the second display (17). All remaining symbols shift down one position. The symbols (16) in the upper display (17) are analyzed until no more winning combinations exists.
