Patent number: 11940903Abstract: A computer implemented method, system and computing device for identifying a test option associated with an application for a user is described. The method comprises selecting a predefined test indicated by a test identifier associated with the requested application, the test having more than one test option associated therewith, generating a hash of the test identifier and a user identifier associated with the user, processing the hash to generate an index, comparing said index with a distribution of numbers divided into multiple ranges, each range being associated with a test option, and selecting a test option associated with the range into which the index falls. The applications may be computer gaming applications.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventor: Simon Woodward

Patent number: 11918915Abstract: A computer device provides a computer implemented game. Different levels of the computer implemented game are displayed. A game starting at one of the levels and being with a plurality of other players is provided. The game challenge require the completion of a plurality of consecutive levels of the levels. If the player or another other player fails to complete a level, the player or other player is removed from the game challenge. As the player progresses through the levels information about a remaining number of the plurality of players in the game challenge is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventors: Niklas Arnell, Sashank Vandrangi, Mikhail Kharlamov, Ida Nilsson

Patent number: 11801445Abstract: A computer device has a user interface configured to present to a user a selected one of a plurality of game levels. Each game level is associated with a set of rules which control the display of game outcomes. A pre-level screen is displayed to the user comprising selectable objects, each of which is associated with a set of rule modifications. The user selects one of the selectable objects. The set of rules associated with the game level is modified according to the rule modifications associated with the selected selectable object. The level is presented to the user for interaction according to the modified set of rules. A corresponding method and computer program is provided.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2019Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventors: Carlos Casado, Carlos Lidon

Patent number: 11599534Abstract: A computing arrangement receives data. The data is from computer apps running on computer devices. The data has user identity data and associated device identity data. A memory stores sets of identity data. A respective set of identity data is associated with a user identity. Sets of identity data comprise at least one user identity data, at least one device entity data and information defining a connection relationship between the identity data of the respective set of identity data. At least one processor determines in response to received user identity data and device identity data that a first stored set of identity data is to be divided into two or more sets of user identity data. At least two sets of user identity data are associated with different user identities. The set of identity data is divided in dependence on the information defining the connection relationships.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventors: Jan-Erik Hedbom, Mattias Andersson

Patent number: 11305200Abstract: A computer device is configured to provide a computer implemented game. The computer device has at least one processor which is configured to determine a number of booster options that have been activated, a booster option being usable in the computer implemented game to provide a respective additional effect. The at least one processor is further configured to determining if the determined number of booster options is greater than a threshold number and when the determined number of booster options is greater than the threshold number, determine that a further booster option is to be provided in the computer implemented game.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventors: Brent Blazek, Marwan Zitouni, Nishant Shah
