  • Publication number: 20200380819
    Abstract: A self-reconfiguring wagering system is disclosed. The system comprises an interactive controller that communicates with a process controller, determines a skill outcome for two or more skill objectives presented to a user, and communicates to the process controller the skill outcome. A chance-based controller of the system hu communicates with the process controller, generates an ordered set of chance components having one or more chance outcomes using a random number generator and a paytable, and communicates the ordered set of chance components to the process controller. The process controller receives the ordered set of chance components, reorders the ordered set of chance components on the basis of a testing skill outcome and an actual use skill outcome, receives the skill outcome from the interactive controller, and updates one or more credit meters using the skill outcome and the ordered set of chance components.

  • Patent number: 10839642
    Abstract: A gambling hybrid game that provides game history validation. The gambling hybrid game includes an entertainment system engine that provides an entertainment game to a user, a real world engine that provides gambling games to users, and a game world engine that monitors the entertainment game and provides gambling games when appropriate. The entertainment system engine stores game history information in response to a trigger event and provides at least a portion of the stored game history information to a game world engine. The game world engine stores received portion of the game history information. When a request for game history verification is received by the game world engine, the game world engine retrieves the game history information from the entertainment system engine and used the portion of the game history information stored by the game world engine to verify the game history information from the entertainment system engine.
