Benefits of technology

This patent makes a new kind of tickets game that combines chance, competition, and individual skill. It's designed to be a lot of fun and easy to play. The game makes players better at improving their skills and increasing their chances of winning. Additionally, the game lets players connect with others and meet opponents from all over the world, making it possible to play from a mobile phone while on the move.

Problems solved by technology

For example, the need to think several moves ahead in a strategy game like chess presents mental challenges while the ticket winning distribution in an instant ticket cash competition provides statistical challenges.
However, there are currently no adequate technological solutions available for enabling an effective combination of entertainment games and lottery / chance or betting games for a multitude of channels including PC, mobile and console devices.

Abstract

The present invention relates to systems and methods for playing an instant ticket-based entertainment game combining elements of chance and player skill. In an embodiment of the present invention, a game player receives an electronic scratch-off instant ticket from a central server over a communications network (e.g., a mobile phone network). The instant ticket may provide an instant prize and may also provide entry into an interactive multiplayer bonus game (e.g., a car racing game) by awarding the game player with at least one game attribute (e.g., car type, time in which to complete race) to be used during play of the bonus game. Scores are reported to the game server upon completion of the game and winners are determined by the game server based on game player rankings at various checkpoints throughout the bonus game. Another embodiment of the present invention may include a mystery promotion prize feature.
