INDEPENDENTLY RANDOMLY DETERMINED SYMBOL PATTERN SET ASSOCIATED WITH SYMBOL DISPLAY POSITIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240378942 titled 'INDEPENDENTLY RANDOMLY DETERMINED SYMBOL PATTERN SET ASSOCIATED WITH SYMBOL DISPLAY POSITIONS
The patent application describes gaming systems and methods that independently determine and display symbol pattern sets for multiple plays of a game. These symbol pattern sets are associated with symbol display positions, and the gaming system displays each determined symbol pattern set adjacent to the symbol display positions. During the game, the system removes symbols from the pattern sets based on the symbols displayed on the symbol display elements. When all symbols of a pattern set are removed, the system displays an indication of an award associated with that pattern set.
- Gaming system independently determines and displays symbol pattern sets for multiple plays of a game
- Symbol pattern sets are associated with symbol display positions
- Each determined symbol pattern set is displayed adjacent to symbol display positions
- System removes symbols from pattern sets based on symbols displayed on symbol display elements
- When all symbols of a pattern set are removed, an award associated with that pattern set is displayed
Potential Applications: - Online casino games - Slot machines - Lottery games
Problems Solved: - Enhances player engagement - Adds an element of randomness and excitement to gameplay
Benefits: - Increased player satisfaction - More dynamic and interactive gaming experience
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Gaming System for Enhanced Player Experience This technology can be used in various commercial applications such as online casinos, slot machines, and lottery games to provide players with a more engaging and interactive gaming experience. By incorporating independently determined symbol pattern sets and removing symbols based on gameplay, this system adds an element of excitement and unpredictability to traditional gaming formats.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the gaming system determine which symbols to remove from the pattern sets? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology on the gaming industry?
Original Abstract Submitted
gaming systems and methods that independently randomly determine and display one or more symbol pattern sets associated with symbol display positions for multiple plays of a game. the gaming system displays each determined symbol pattern set adjacent to the symbol display positions. at various points during the multiple plays of the game, the gaming system removes one or more of the symbols of each of the symbol pattern sets based on and corresponding to one or more of the symbols displayed on symbol display elements at the symbol display positions. responsive to all of the symbols of one of the symbol pattern sets being removed, the gaming system displays an indication of an award associated with that symbol pattern set.
