Abstract: Set of lottery tickets (21) in which each lottery ticket (1) comprises a first set of gaming fields (&OHgr;), where, within the said first set of gaming fields (&OHgr;), each of the gaming fields has a symbol selected from a limited set of symbols (&PHgr;), gaming arrangement (20) comprising a set of lottery tickets (21) and a transmission unit (22) and means (40) for generating a set of lottery tickets, which means (40) comprise a first register (41) comprising a limited set of symbols (&PHgr;), means (25, 26, 27) for identifying gaming fields on a lottery ticket and a generating circuit (46) which is arranged to generate a set of symbols for each lottery ticket for storage in a memory (48).

Abstract: Set of lottery tickets (7) in which each lottery ticket within said set of lottery tickets has a game field (2) which has a defined number of symbols (5) from a set of symbols and is covered by a scratch-off film of material which can be rubbed away, and a gaming arrangement (6) comprising such a set of lottery tickets.

Abstract: Set of lottery tickets in which each lottery ticket has a game field which has a defined number of symbols from a set of symbols, and a number of draw fields, each draw field having an identification marker, gaming arrangement comprising such a set of lottery tickets, and apparatus for generating a set of lottery tickets, each one provided with a set of draw fields and a game field, comprising a first register comprising a set of symbols, a second register comprising a set of dientification markers for each draw field and a random generator.

Abstract: Gaming arrangement comprising a set of lottery tickets divided according to a number series with a particular number of digits placed in the same number of distinct positions and a geographical partial areas which together cover the large geographical area, and a method for the identification of a limited geographical area within a large geographical area, the large geographical area being divided in a geographical tree structure comprising geographical partial areas in ever-higher hierarchical levels, which together cover the large geographical area.

Abstract: Device for manufacturing game pieces and generating movement sequences to be used in a game of chance with a predetermined number of winners. The device includes a printing machine, a computer processor, readable and writeable memory means incorporating a plurality of registers, and a plurality of communication-links. The printing machine prints a start column, an end column, a number of parts, each part comprising a director area, and director patterns on each game piece. The computer processor is configured to obtain game piece manufacturing data incorporating numbers representing maximum vertical differences between the start and end positions of each part. Also, the processor generates one list of director areas for each part, the director areas comprising a director pattern, and sorts the lists so that director patterns resulting in small vertical differences between the start and end positions of each part are arranged to be placed first.

Abstract: The invention relates to an interactive gaming device (100) which contains information concerning whether the device can be made to award a prize or not. The device includes modules (1,2,3,4,5,10,20,30,40,50,60,70) for interaction with a user, and is provided with information unknown to the user concerning how a user is to interact with the device (100) in order for a device which can award a prize to award a prize. This information can relate to whether the device is a winner or not in a lottery. The modules of interaction with a user can comprise a control unit (70), sensors (1,2,3,4,5) for detecting at least one of the parameters sound, light, temperature, touch, atmospheric pressure and movement of the device, and in addition modules (10,20,30,40,50) for example light emitting diodes, of indicating correct interaction with the device with regard to each one of the parameters which the device is equipped with sensors to detect.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and a method for generating game pieces and movement sequences. The game pieces are used in a game of chance having a predetermined number of winners with respect to the movement sequences. By way of moves determined by randomly selected movement sequences, a player's marker is directed from a start position to an end position on a game piece. The method involves selecting the vertical difference (number of grid sections) between the start and end positions on the game piece, dividing the game pieces into parts and preferably randomly generating a series of marker moves for each part of the game piece. The series of marker moves, when applied to a game piece, results in a player's marker traveling from the start position to the end position. The system includes a computer arranged to generate and store the series of marker moves which, when applied to a game piece, causes the player's marker to travel from the start position to the end position.
