Hybrid gaming system having omniscience gambling proposition
View Patent ↗Systems and methods for providing a gambling hybrid game having an omniscience mode are disclosed. The systems and method involve receiving an input from a player accepting an omniscience gambling proposition. The results of a gambling event associated with the omniscience gambling proposition are then determined and wagers are resolved. The results of the gambling event are then used to determine target information to provide a player to satisfy the omniscience gambling proposition.
1. A distributed hybrid gaming system providing an omniscience mode gambling proposition on a computing device, comprising:
an entertainment engine connected to a game world engine by a network, wherein the entertainment engine is configured to execute an entertainment game on the computing device including providing an invitation to accept an omniscience gambling proposition to a player of the entertainment game wherein the omniscience gambling proposition provides target information about an entertainment game state and receiving an input indicating an acceptance of the omniscience gambling proposition;
a real world engine connected to the game world engine, wherein the real world engine is constructed to:
receive from the game world engine, a request to determine a result of a gambling event associated with the omniscience gambling proposition;
determine the result of the gambling event using a random number generator and a pay-table;
distribute to the game world engine, the results of the gambling event; and
the game world engine connected to the entertainment engine by the network, wherein the game world engine is constructed to:
receive the acceptance of the omniscience gambling proposition from the entertainment engine;
request the result of the gambling event from the real world engine;
receive the result of the gambling event from the real world engine;
determine the result of the omniscience gambling proposition including the target information to provide based on the results of the omniscience gambling proposition;
distribute the target information to the entertainment engine; and
distribute timing instructions to the entertainment engine;
wherein the entertainment engine is configured to:
receive the target information from the game world engine;
determine the entertainment game state associated with the target information;
display the entertainment game state to the player through a user interface; and
end the display of the entertainment game state to the player based on the timing instructions.
2. The distributed hybrid gaming system of claim 1 wherein the game world engine is further constructed to determine changes to a set of entertainment game variables based on the result of the gambling event.
3. The distributed hybrid gaming system of claim 2 wherein the game world engine is constructed to provide the changes to the set of game variables to the entertainment engine and the entertainment engine is constructed to receive the changes to the set of game variables from the game world engine and incorporate the changes in the set of game variables into the entertainment game.
4. The distributed hybrid gaming system of claim 1 wherein the game world engine is constructed to initiate the entertainment game engine to provide the invitation to participate in the omniscience gambling event to the player.
5. The distributed hybrid gaming system of claim 1 wherein the real world engine is constructed to:
resolve a wager of real world credits on the gambling event based upon the result of the gambling event; and
