Game System with Dynamic Payoff Pool and Additional Bet Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing game systems face challenges in maintaining player interest over time due to unattractive payoff structures and varying regional player preferences, leading to increased operational costs and management complexities.
Innovation Solution
A game system that automatically judges whether a player makes an additional bet, allowing for a choice between a basic game flow and an additional raising game flow, with a payoff pool unit that accumulates and distributes payments based on bet signals, enabling players to freely choose additional bets and receive enhanced payments, while accommodating different regional preferences by adjusting fixed proportions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the game console provides payoff pool or payoff game to attract players, then player engagement is improved, but the odds of the basic game must be reduced which leads to player loss of interest over time
Solution Approach 1:
The game system segments the betting process into basic bet and additional bet components, allowing players to choose their engagement level. The payoff pool and payoff game are separated as optional features rather than mandatory elements, enabling players to participate in basic games with full odds or engage with payoff features at their own pace.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts the game flow based on player choices. When players make additional bets, the system can transition between basic game flow and additional raising game flow, providing flexible engagement options that maintain basic game integrity while offering enhanced payoff opportunities.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the game console is modified to accommodate different regional player preferences, then player satisfaction is improved, but the push-out date is delayed and operating cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The game console is designed with universal functionality to handle multiple game modes (basic game, payoff pool, payoff game) and betting options (basic bet, additional bet) within a single platform. The system can adapt to different regional preferences through software configuration rather than hardware modification, allowing one console design to serve multiple markets simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The system allows dynamic adjustment of game parameters such as payoff pool allocation ratios, payoff game trigger conditions, and additional bet multipliers to accommodate regional preferences. These parameter changes can be implemented through software updates without requiring physical console modifications, enabling rapid adaptation to different markets.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the game console requires manual modification for different regions, then regional preferences are met, but management and maintenance complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The game console incorporates self-service capabilities through automated judgment of additional bets and dynamic game flow selection. The control unit automatically determines whether to execute basic game flow or additional raising game flow based on detected additional bet signals, eliminating the need for manual intervention or complex regional configuration by operators.

AI summary
In the present invention, a player makes a basic bet, chooses whether to make an additional bet on an additional bet element, and executes, by utilizing a control unit, the following steps: allocating a fixed proportion of an amount of the basic bet and an amount of the additional bet to be accumulated into a payoff value; choosing to perform an additional raising game flow or a basic game flow according to the presence or absence of the additional bet; in the absence of the additional bet, performing, by the control unit, the basic game flow to generate a basic payment value; in the presence of the additional bet, performing, by the control unit, the additional raising game flow to generate an additional raising payment value; and when a game result generated by a game host conforms to the bet of a player, giving the value to the player.
