Anti-cheating system

1. An electromechanical gaming machine constructed to receive real world credits from a user, comprising:

a real world engine constructed to provide a randomly generated payout of real world credits for a wager of an amount of real world credits in a gambling game;

an entertainment software engine constructed to receive from an anti-cheating module a command to execute an entertainment game that provides an amount of game world credits;

a game world engine constructed to manage the entertainment software engine and communicate gameplay gambling event occurrences based upon a player's skillful execution of the entertainment game that trigger the wager of the amount of real world credits and the randomly generated payout for the gambling game to the gambling game;

and the anti-cheating module constructed to:

receive from the game world engine an anti-cheating measure;

receive player information for the player where the player information is related to the anti-cheating measure;

apply the anti-cheating measure to the entertainment game;

determine if the anti-cheating measure has been successfully applied to the entertainment game; and

send the command to execute the entertainment game based upon a determination that the anti-cheating measure has been applied to the entertainment game.

2. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , wherein the anti-cheating measure is based on geographical location of a device used for the entertainment game.

3. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 2 , wherein the anti-cheating module determines the location of the device by determining the IP address associated with the device.

4. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 2 , wherein the anti-cheating module determines the location of the device used by determining the GPS coordinates associated with the device.

5. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 2 , wherein the anti-cheating module determines whether the first device used for the entertainment game is at the same location of a second device used for the entertainment game.

6. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 5 , wherein the anti-cheating module prevents the second device from accessing the entertainment game when it is at the same location as the first device.

7. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , wherein the anti-cheating measure obscures the player's access to information concerning gameplay progress of other players of a multiplayer game.

8. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , wherein the anti-cheating measure prevents third parties from communicating information concerning gameplay to the players.

9. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , wherein the anti-cheating measure makes gameplay anonymous such that players do not know who they are playing against.

10. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 ,

wherein the entertainment software engine and the game world engine are constructed from the same device, and

wherein the game world engine is operatively connected to the real world engine using a communication link.

11. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 ,

wherein the real world engine and the game world engine are constructed from the same device, and

wherein the game world engine is operatively connected to the entertainment software engine using a communication link.

12. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , wherein the real world engine, the entertainment software engine, and the game world engine are constructed from the same device.

13. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 1 , further comprising:

an enclosure constructed to mount:

a user input device operatively connected to the entertainment software engine;

a user output device operatively connected to the entertainment software engine;

a credit input device operatively connected to the real world engine; and

a credit output device operatively connected to the real world engine.

14. The electromechanical gaming machine of claim 13 ,

wherein the real world engine is further constructed to:

communicate with the credit input device to receive a credit input;

credit a credit meter with credits based on the incoming credit data;

execute a wager based on a communication received from the game world engine;

update the credit meter based on a wager outcome of the wager; and

communicate with the credit output device to generate a credit output based on credits transferred off of the credit meter.
