A game method includes a player placing a wager. A sub-game includes the selection of N challenge indicia from a set of ranked indicia. After each challenge indicia is displayed, a player predicts the relative ranking of the next challenge indicia. If a player qualifies based on his performance during the sub-game, the player is issued a reward and moves to another sub-game. A device for executing a game method includes a data processor communicating with a display, a wager device, a reward dispenser, and a input device.
