SKILL DISTRIBUTED OUTCOME WAGERING SYSTEM

1 . A skill distributed outcome wagering system, comprising:

an interactive processing device, wherein the interactive processing device is configured to:

determine a skill outcome for a player, wherein the skill outcome includes a skill metric and one or more skill objectives achieved by the player while playing a skill-based game of the interactive processing device; and

communicate the skill outcome to a process controller;

a skill bonus controller, wherein the skill bonus controller is configured to:

receive a skill metric for a player from a process controller; and

determine a bonus for the player based on the skill metric; and

the process controller configured to communicate with the interactive processing device and the skill bonus controller, wherein the process controller is further configured to:

receive the skill outcome from the interactive processing device;

communicate the skill metric to the bonus controller; and

allocate respective one or more chance-based outcomes to the player based on the one or more skill objectives achieved by the player.

2 . The skill distributed outcome wagering system of claim 1 , wherein the interactive processing device and the process controller are configured from the same device.

3 . The skill distributed outcome wagering system of claim 1 , wherein the process controller is operatively connected to the interactive processing device using a communication link.

4 . The skill distributed outcome wagering system of claim 1 , further comprising:

an enclosure constructed to mount:

a user input device operatively connected to the interactive processing device;

a user output device operatively connected to the interactive processing device;

a credit input device operatively connected to the process controller; and

a credit output device operatively connected to the process controller

5 . The skill distributed outcome wagering system of claim 4 , further comprising a random number generator, wherein the process controller is further configured to:

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

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

generate the one or more chance-based outcomes based on a random outcome generated by the random number generator;

determine a skill proposition based on the chance-based wager outcome;

communicate the skill proposition to the interactive processing device;

receive a skill outcome from the interactive processing device;

update the credit meter based on a chance 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, and

wherein the interactive processing device is further configured to:

receive the skill proposition from the process controller;

generate a user presentation based on the skill proposition;

detect user or player interactions with the user presentation;

determine a skill outcome based on the user or player interactions and the skill proposition; and

communicate the skill outcome to the process controller.
