Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If bonus game parameters are predetermined or randomly determined, then the game operation is simple and efficient, but player interaction and enjoyment are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The bonus game transitions from a static, predetermined configuration to a dynamic, player-customizable experience. Players can select and modify bonus game features during gameplay, allowing the game parameters to adapt to player preferences while maintaining operational simplicity through automated processing of selections.
Solution Approach 2:
Players are empowered to self-customize their bonus game experience by selecting from available features. The system automatically processes these selections and configures the bonus game accordingly, eliminating the need for complex manual configuration while enhancing player engagement and interaction options.
2Adaptability or versatility
If players can select from multiple bonus game features, then player interaction and customization are enhanced, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bonus game is segmented into discrete, selectable features that can be independently chosen and configured. This modular approach allows players to pick specific features they prefer without being overwhelmed by the entire system, while the backend automatically manages the complexity of combining and configuring these segmented features.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures multiple bonus game features and makes them available for selection before the player needs to make choices. This preliminary preparation of feature options simplifies the player's decision-making process while the system handles the complex task of validating and integrating the selected features into a coherent bonus game configuration.
Data Source
AI summary
A processor circuit generates a first game result for a wagering game, including a bonus game trigger event. Based on the bonus game trigger event, a bonus game, and a user selection of a subset of bonus game features from a plurality of available bonus game features is received. Based on the selection of the subset of bonus game features, the subset of bonus game feature is applied to the bonus game and a bonus game result for the bonus game is generated.
