Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional online GOSTOP games lack variety and interest, as they primarily rely on a single deck of cards and do not offer diverse gameplay experiences, leading to monotony for users.

Innovation Solution

An online GOSTOP game system that utilizes multiple decks of cards, allowing for various card combinations and team play options, with a point calculation system that assigns weights to unique card combinations, enhancing user engagement and entertainment.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a single deck of cards is used for online GOSTOP game, then the game can be played easily and quickly, but the game becomes monotonous and loses user interest

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of playingVSAvoidgame variety
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple decks of cards (typically 2-4 decks) into a single game system, allowing players to draw from a larger pool of cards. This merging of multiple card sets creates diverse card combinations and patterns while maintaining the familiar GOSTOP gameplay mechanics, thus preserving ease of operation while significantly enhancing game variety and user interest

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple decks of cards are used to increase game variety, then user interest and fun are improved, but the complexity of the game system increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegame varietyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal game control system that manages multiple decks of cards through a single integrated interface. The system provides multiple functions including card distribution, combination calculation, point scoring, and game rule enforcement within one unified platform. This multi-functional approach allows the system to handle complex multi-deck gameplay without requiring separate mechanisms for each function, thus reducing overall system complexity while maintaining game variety

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Ease of manufacture

If conventional single-deck GOSTOP game method is used online, then the game can be implemented simply, but it lacks diversity and fails to provide new gaming experiences

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimplementation simplicityVSAvoidgame diversity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent fundamentally changes the key parameter of card deck quantity from one to multiple (2-4 decks). This parameter change transforms the game by creating new card combinations, patterns, and strategic possibilities while maintaining the core GOSTOP mechanics. The system automatically calculates points based on various card combinations from multiple decks, providing diverse gaming experiences without requiring complex manual rule changes, thus achieving game diversity while keeping implementation relatively simple

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
