3. The electronic gaming system of claim 2 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to:
cause a first portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions to be displayed as being locked as unavailable for selection; and
cause a second portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions to be displayed as being unlocked as available for selection.
4. The electronic gaming system of claim 3 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to determine which of the plurality of potential trigger conditions to display as being locked and which of the plurality of potential trigger conditions to display as being unlocked based upon one or more predetermined conditions being met.
5. The electronic gaming system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to cause the bonus to be provided by at least one of adding a number of credits to the player account or providing a number of free spins in the electronic game.
6. The electronic gaming system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to:
track progress toward the trigger condition being met; and
cause display of the indicator to be updated as progress toward the trigger condition being met is made to communicate a current status toward the trigger condition being met.
7. The electronic gaming system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to cause display of gameplay of the electronic game at the host computing device and the at least one computing device.
8. The electronic gaming system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to:
receive video data from the host computing device, wherein the video data includes background data associated with a background and host image data associated with the host;
filter out the background data from the video data to produce updated video data; and
cause the host to be displayed at the at least one computing device by transmitting the updated video data to the at least one computing device.
9. The electronic gaming system of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to filter out the background data by removing at least part of the background data based on another input received from the host computing device identifying at least one background color to be removed from the video data.
10. An electronic gaming device comprising:
at least one display device;
at least one memory with instructions stored thereon; and
at least one processor in communication with the at least on display device and the at least one memory, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
display a host interface associated with an electronic game on the at least one display device;
receive an input of a selection at the host interface of a trigger condition associated with the electronic game; and
transmit first content that causes an indicator of the trigger condition to be displayed at at least one computing device associated with at least one player of the electronic game, wherein when the trigger condition is satisfied, a bonus is provided.
11. The electronic gaming device of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to display the host interface as including a plurality of potential trigger conditions including the trigger condition.
12. The electronic gaming device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to:
display a first portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions as being locked as unavailable for selection; and
display a second portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions as being unlocked as available for selection.
13. The electronic gaming device of claim 12 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to display the first portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions as being locked and the second portion of the plurality of potential trigger conditions as being unlocked based upon one or more predetermined conditions being met.
14. The electronic gaming device of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to display gameplay of the electronic game on the at least one display device, wherein the gameplay is also displayed at the at least one computing device.
15. The electronic gaming device of claim 10 , wherein the electronic gaming device further comprises a camera, and wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to:
capture video of a host associated with the electronic gaming device, wherein the video includes a background and the host; and
filter out the background from the video to produce an updated video data.
16. The electronic gaming device of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further cause the at least one processor to filter out the background by removing at least part of the background based on another input received at the host interface identifying at least one background color to be removed from the video.
17. At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
cause display of a host interface at a host computing device of a plurality of computing devices associated with an electronic game, wherein at least one computing device of the plurality of computing devices is associated with a player account participating in the electronic game, and wherein the host computing device is associated with a host for the electronic game;
receive an input from the host computing device based on a selection of a trigger condition associated with the electronic game, wherein a bonus associated with the electronic game is provided when the trigger condition is achieved;
cause display of an indicator of the trigger condition at the at least one computing device;
