International Classification:

G07F 17/32

Abstract:

An entertainment gaming system and method for transforming a non-random number outcome into an entertainment gaming outcome. The entertainment gaming system comprises a central server, non-random number outcome generator machine, entertainment gaming machine, and database. The central server communicatively coupled with non-random number outcome generator machine and entertainment gaming machine. The entertainment gaming system collects non-random number based outcome from real-world events and transmitting it to the central server. The central server further utilizes an algorithm to process the received non-random number outcome into an entertainment gaming outcome. Further, the present entertainment gaming system comprises a database to store the received real-world non-random number based outcome and processed entertainment gaming outcome generated from the received non-random number based outcome. The central server then transmits the processed outcome in the form of an entertainment gaming outcome to the entertainment gaming machine to generate and render a game result.

International Classification:

G07F 17/32

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention provide entertainment gaming systems and methods comprising, among other things, a real world non-random number outcome generator machine and an entertainment gaming machine wherein the non-random outcome from the real world non-random number generator machine is processed into an entertainment gaming machine outcome. The entertainment gaming system and method of embodiments of the invention may be configured to collect non-random number based outcome from a real-world event and transmitting it to the entertainment gaming machine. The non-random number outcome from the real-world is processed into an entertainment gaming machine outcome event by the entertaining game machine processor or by the central server. The central server communicates with the real word non-random number outcome generator and entertainment gaming machine wherein the central server further transmit the processed outcome to the entertainment gaming machine to generate the game result requested by the triggering event on the entertainment gaming machine.

Abstract:

A system includes a display device, one or more processors, and one or more computer-readable storage media communicably connected to the one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon that cause the one or more processors to: display a question on the display device, the question corresponding to a first category from among a plurality of categories; receive an input in response to the question from an input device associated with the display device; analyze the input to determine a quantifiable outcome based on the input; calculate a probabilistic value for the first category based on the quantifiable outcome; select a subsequent question based on the probabilistic value; and display the subsequent question on the display device.
