摘要： A gaming server device may conduct a networked bingo game with client devices, each client device associated with a respective bingo ticket. Conducting the game may involve: (i) randomly selecting symbols from the symbol set, (ii) marking the selected symbols on any bingo tickets that contain the selected symbols, and (iii) repeating the random selecting and marking until one or more of the bingo tickets are marked with a winning pattern. The gaming server device may transmit an offer to a particular client device associated with a particular bingo ticket that is not marked with the winning pattern. The offer may be for the gaming server device to randomly select a further symbol from the symbol set at a cost to the particular client device, where the cost is based on an expected gain that acceptance of the offer provides to the particular client device.

摘要： A system (20) comprises a gaming server (22) configured to host a turn of a zero-sum game played by a plurality of players via a plurality of websites (23a, 23b), each of the websites having a respective clearing account (38); and an application server (32). The application server (32) receives from the gaming server (22) information indicating for each player during the game (i) the wagering activity (ii) any winnings, and (iii) the website used to play the game. The application server (32) determines for each player a respective player value contribution based on the wagering activity of the player during the turn and a respective player value indicator associated with the player, and determines a total player value contribution based on the player value contributions of all of the players who played during the turn. The application server (32) determines for each player a respective rake allocation based on the player value contribution of the player and the total player contribution, and credits each website's clearing account (38) based on the respective rake allocation of each player who used the website to play the game during the turn.

摘要： A gaming machine (100) may determine that a trigger event for a bonus game occurred during a base outcome event of a base game, wherein the base game and the bonus game are both reel-based games being executed on behalf of a client machine. In response, the gaming machine (100) may award use of two or more replaceable symbols (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922) for the bonus game. Until all of the replaceable symbols (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922) have been used, the gaming machine may repeatedly carry out iterations of bonus game operations including: determining a symbol set (600; 700) for display on a plurality of reels, where the symbol set includes non-replaceable symbols and zero or more replaceable symbols (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922), and where each displayed replaceable symbol (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922) is successively replaced in the display (110) by either a new non-replaceable symbol or a new replaceable symbol (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922) until no displayed replaceable symbols (610; 702, 704, 706; 920, 922) remain on the plurality of reels.

摘要： Systems and methods for networked bingo are described. A machine (22) can generate enhanced bingo tickets (302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312) including symbols (400) that can be called for a networked bingo match and extra symbols , such as a globally-designated scatter symbol (406) that is applicable to all bingo tickets (302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312) competing in the bingo match. The extra symbols can also include locally-designated extra symbols, such as a bonus trigger symbol (412), a bonus-counter symbol (408), and a multiplier symbol (410), that are applicable to individual bingo tickets (302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312). A first machine (22) can provide a second machine (24) with one or more enhanced bingo tickets (302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312) over a communication network (28). The first and second machines (22, 24) can store the bingo ticket(s) (302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312) as a data structure in memory. The first machine (22) can send a symbol sequence indicating the symbols called for the bingo match. The symbol sequence can include indicators of the extra symbols being called or symbols associated with the extra symbols being called.

摘要： A gaming machine (100) may determine that a trigger event for a bonus game occurred during a base outcome event of a base game. The base game and the bonus game may both be reel-based games being executed on behalf of a client machine. The symbols (600; 700; 800; 900; 1000; 1100) on each reel may include at least two unstacked wild symbols. In response to determining that the trigger event occurred, an instance of the bonus game may be awarded. A special symbol (704; 902; 1102) may be included on each reel for the bonus game. Until all of the reels contain stacked wild symbols, iterations of bonus game operations may be repeatedly carried out. These operations may include determining a symbol set (600; 700; 800; 900; 1000; 1100) for display on the plurality of reels, where any special symbol appearing on a particular reel results in the wild symbols on the particular reel being stacked.

摘要： A gaming machine (100) is configured for playing a wager game in which symbol sets are displayed by the machine and the machine (100) determines whether a player has won in dependence on the displayed symbol set. The gaming machine (100) comprises means (112) for selecting the symbol sets and means (110) for displaying the symbol sets. The machine is configured to select a first symbol set (500) from a global symbol group and to display the first symbol set (500), wherein the first symbol set (500) includes at least two symbols (506). The gaming machine (100) determines that a trigger event has occurred and, responsive to determining that the trigger event has occurred, identifies at least one symbol (510) in the first symbol set that is in a replaceable symbol group which is a subset of the global symbol group. For the or each symbol in the first symbol set (500) which is in the replaceable symbol group, the gaming machine selects a replacement symbol (512) that is in the global symbol group. The gaming machine displays a second symbol set (514) consisting of (i) the symbols in the first symbol (500) set which are not in the replaceable symbol group, and (ii) the or each replacement symbol (512).

摘要： Machines and methods are described for displaying a predetermined symbol (510) and a set of symbols selected from a global symbol set. A first symbol position (C5, R1) can be randomly selected for displaying the predetermined symbol (510), which can include a multiplier meter (524) to display a multiplier value randomly selectable from multiple multiplier values. A second symbol position can be randomly selected for displaying the predetermined symbol (510) after moving along a path from the first symbol position (C5, R1). The predetermined symbol (510) can be displayed as part of a predetermined number of outcome events earned upon determination that a trigger event occurred. A server machine can select symbol positions, multiplier values and symbol sets and provide data indicating the symbol positions, multiplier values and symbol sets to a client machine. The client machine can include a display to display the symbol sets, and multiplier values within a predetermined symbol (510).
