    Abstract: A game machine may facilitate a photographic social game. The photographic social game may be played using, for example, camera-enabled devices (e.g., participating devices). The photographic social game may prompt users of camera-enabled devices to take and submit photographs at a particular time (e.g., 5:00 PM GMT or 5:00 PM local time), after occurrence of a particular event (e.g., 5 minutes after waking up), or any suitable combination thereof. These photos may be assembled by the game machine into a presentation that is shared among the users participating in the photographic social game, and one or more of various games may be played by the users based on the presentation.
