Abstract: A method for playing an interactive game uses a DVD-Video player, a display device, and appointing device. The DVD player plays a first video segment, that includes an animated element moving through different regions of the video display. The DVD player receives pointing input from the pointing device, causing a corresponding region of the display to become active. A user may send an interruption command to the DVD player. Play of the first segment may continue until an interruption command is received when the animated element is in an active region of the video display. When this occurs, the DVD player interrupts the first video segment and plays a second segment. The method may be repeated for successive levels of game play.

Abstract: A random selection program stored on an optical disc, which is played on an electronic device. The electronic device is coupled to an audio/visual output device. The electronic device includes a random number generator. The random selection program includes a random selection module and a program selector module. The random selection module is programmed to initiate the random number generator to generate randomly a selection. The program selector module is programmed to receive the selection and to initiate an audio/visual presentation that corresponds to the selection on the audio/visual output device.
