Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a multi-reel skill-based redemption game. An indication of a user desire to participate in the skill-based redemption game is received. The user's account balance is decreased, and simulated reels are spun. Adjustment arrows are displayed for a subset of the plurality of simulated reels. The player selects a simulated reel and a direction of adjustment for the simulated reel. If the player's adjustment creates a winning pattern, the user is rewarded with an increased account balance. The user may also be provided a bonus amount for achieving a number of consecutive wins.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related playing a progressive game. In some embodiments, at least one request may be received from a player to play a first game associated with a first prize pool. Play of the first game may be facilitated on at least one networked terminal based at least in part on receiving the at least one request from the player to play the first game. Play of a second game associated with a second prize pool on the at least one networked terminal may be initiated. The second game may be initiated in response to the second prize pool reaching a predetermined amount.

Abstract: A system for allowing a user to participate in an electronic auction and an electronic sweepstakes game includes a processor configured to (1) receive a request to purchase a first quantity of bids, (2) enable purchase the first quantity of bids, (3) allocate the first quantity of purchased bids and a first quantity of electronic sweepstakes entries to an account of the purchase, (4) enable the purchaser to use one of the first quantity of bids to bid on a first item, (5) receive a request to reveal one of the first quantity of sweepstakes entries, (6) enable the user to reveal the one sweepstakes entry, and (7) enable the display of a result selected from a group consisting of the auction of the item and the reveal of the at least one sweepstakes entry.

Abstract: A system and method that generates a finite number of sweepstakes entries for a sweepstakes, facilitates a selection of one or more sweepstakes entries from the finite number of entries, determines the result of each selected sweepstakes entry, allocates each nonzero result to the user, and provides the user with at least one of the selected sweepstakes entries, the result of each selected sweepstakes entry, the sum of all nonzero results from the selected sweepstakes entries, a code that is associated with the selected sweepstakes entries, and a program that is configured to cause a computer to interactively display to the results associated with the selected sweepstakes entries to the user. The results of the selected sweepstakes entries may be viewed in the form of a simulated game, or the user may log into an account associated with the user to view the total amount won.

Abstract: A secondary game system, in various embodiments, comprises a system of networked game terminals where a player playing a game on a game terminal can earn eligibility to win a prize from a secondary game that plays simultaneously in the background. The secondary game may be triggered based on play on the plurality of networked terminals. This allows the player to play a first game that earns them eligibility to win another game that is played in the background. The player sends a game initiation request for a game (e.g., lottery slot) to be played on the game terminal. If a certain criterion is satisfied, the player becomes eligible to win a prize from the secondary game if the secondary game is triggered while the player is eligible to win.

Abstract: An electronic auction method and system that determines a first number of bids that must be received, the receipt of which will end a reserve period of a first electronic auction and determines at least one additional number of bids that must be received, the receipt of which will end at least one additional electronic auction. A display simultaneously displays the first electronic auction and the at least one additional electronic auction, wherein the end point of the at least one additional electronic auction is displayed within the display of the first electronic auction. Each additional electronic auction ends upon receipt of the predetermined number of bids for that auction and ends the first electronic auction after all additional electronic auctions displayed within the first electronic auction have ended.

Abstract: Methods and systems for electronic auctions are disclosed, which, in some embodiments, may be used in conjunction with disclosed embodiments of electronic game promotions.
