determining the set of preferred game mechanics of the game by increasing a level of difficulty of the game for the player.
9. A method, comprising:
transmitting data associated with a game to one or more computing devices over a network, wherein the game includes one or more game mechanics;
receiving, from at least one of the one or more computing devices, a subscriber preference for the game associated with the transmitted data;
determining, by one or more processors, a set of preferred game mechanics of the game based on the subscriber preference; and
changing, by the one or more processors, at least one of the one or more game mechanics of the game based at least in part on the determined set of preferred game mechanics.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the subscriber preference includes a popularity of the game.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the subscriber preference includes a donation to a player of the game.

receiving, from a remote computing device, a first set of game mechanics of a game;
interactively providing, based on the received first set of game mechanics of the game, content of the game;
interactively generating, by one or more processors, a subscriber preference, wherein the subscriber preference includes a request from a subscriber to change one or more game mechanics associated with a player in the game;
transmitting the subscriber preference;
receiving, from the remote computing device, a second set of game mechanics of the game, wherein the second set of game mechanics is based on the transmitted subscriber preference, and wherein the second set of game mechanics is distinct from the first set of game mechanics; and
