A console system (160) for operating at a central server in communication with remote user devices that may be individually addressable such as Internet user devices and digital television set-top boxes. The console system (160) provides a set of predetermined base-functionality modules that may be leveraged by interactive games provided through various software game modules (170-172). The console system (160) may provide functionality related to email, registration, economy/prize system, reporting, error handling an other functions, for example. The software game module (170) provides game specific functionality that selects the base functionality and passes the base functionality parameter values to indicate operation of the software game over the interactive game network.
