Dynamic Award Indicator Configuration for Variable Gaming Volatility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Gaming systems lack dynamic indicators that alter volatility based on random determinations of award generators, leading to inconsistent player experiences and potential monotony in award distribution.
Innovation Solution
A gaming system that utilizes a dynamic indicator for an award generator with multiple levels, each comprising open and closed sections, randomly determining orientations to form paths and award quantities, ensuring varied section indications and altered volatility for each game play.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a static indicator is used for the award generator, then the system structure is simple and easy to operate, but the gaming experience becomes monotonous and volatility is inconsistent
Solution Approach 1:
The indicator is transformed from a static element to a dynamic one by enabling it to assume different configurations (different numbers of indicated sections) based on random determinations. This allows the indicator to adapt its state across different game plays, creating varied gaming experiences while maintaining a relatively simple overall system structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimension of variability by allowing the indicator to change its configuration in terms of the number of sections it indicates. This dimensional change (from fixed to variable configuration) enables dynamic adjustment of award generator volatility without fundamentally complicating the core award generation mechanism.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the same indicator configuration is used for each game play, then the system is easy to operate, but player experience becomes monotonous and award distribution lacks variety
Solution Approach 1:
The indicator configuration dynamically changes between game plays based on random determinations of open section alignments. This dynamic behavior automatically introduces variety into award distribution patterns, enhancing player experience while requiring minimal additional operational complexity from the user perspective.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically determines different indicator configurations through random processes without requiring manual intervention or complex player decisions. The award generator self-adjusts its indicator states based on internal random determinations of open section alignments, maintaining ease of operation while achieving award distribution variety.
3Adaptability or versatility
If random determinations of open section alignments are implemented, then volatility is enhanced and award variety increases, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates dynamic random determination mechanisms that evaluate alignments of open sections across multiple levels. This creates variable award outcomes and enhanced volatility while using standard random number generation techniques that do not significantly increase overall system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The award generator is divided into multiple levels with distinct open and closed sections. This segmentation allows the random determination mechanism to operate on individual sections independently, simplifying the overall randomization process while still achieving complex and varied award distribution patterns through the interaction of multiple segmented elements.
