Gaming devices, gaming systems, methods of conducting wagering games, and computer programs for executing wagering games are disclosed. Computer-implemented methods of executing a wagering game are disclosed herein. For some implementations which utilize paylines in determining a winning outcome, the method incorporates a non-linear escalation of payline multipliers based on a player's wager level. The wager level determines which of a plurality of “multiplier pools” the player will be entered into for a particular play of the wagering game. A minimum multiplier for each pool is at least the standard payline multiplier (e.g., at wager level 2, the minimum multiplier is 2×), though at higher wager levels the minimum multiplier in the corresponding pool may be higher than the standard minimum payline multiplier (e.g., at wager level 4, the minimum multiplier is 5× instead of just 4×).
