Abrégé

An electronic gaming system is described. The electronic gaming system includes a management server including a processor and a memory device storing computer-readable instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive player identification data and game data. The instructions also cause the processor to request and receive, based upon the player identification data and from a player tracking server, player data associated with the player account, cause display, on a host device associated with a casino host, of at least a portion of the player data and the game data, and determine that the EGM should be disabled for a predetermined amount of time. The instructions further cause the processor to cause display of a message indicating that the EGM will be disabled and disable the EGM for the predetermined amount of time.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide an electronic gaming machine, systems and methods with a wheel feature mode dependent on base game outcomes. Specifically, a gaming machine comprises a user interface, a display device, and a game controller. The wheel feature mode is triggered during a base game based on wheel feature mode trigger conditions. The wheel feature mode animates a graphical user interface to present a spinning feature wheel that provides credit value awards, dependent on base game outcomes (e.g., one or more base game bingo pattern outcomes), through a sequence of player-initiated feature wheel spins. If one or more winning base game outcomes remain in the base game, the wheel feature mode continues with each wheel slice value reset, such that the minimum wheel slice value is equal to or greater than the previous spinning feature wheel credit value award which continues until no winning base game outcomes remain.

The innovations herein balance return to player (RTP) between different selectable volatility pick options (e.g., different reel set sizes) when a variable progressive feature prize (e.g., a number of free games) is awarded, while reducing loading delays and maintaining smooth operation of the gaming device. A volatility pick gateway may dynamically determine an adjustment factor for the progressive feature prize associated with a selectable volatility pick option and dynamically modify weights for a weight table associated with the selected volatility pick option. As opposed to employing lookup tables for every combination of selectable volatility pick option (e.g., reel set size) and progressive feature prize value (e.g., number of free games), one or more weights for weight tables associated with the volatility pick options may be dynamically modified. In this way, the RTP for the default volatility pick option may approximately match the RTP for the other selectable volatility pick options.

Rather than typical slot type games where specific matching combinations of symbols along paylines through a row-by-column grid or matrix indicate the outcome of the game, a slot type concatenation game concatenates value symbols along a payline to form a numerical outcome. Non-value symbols may be omitted and/or ignored. Further, the payline may be indicated by the presence of a trigger symbol, which may allow the payline to change between different plays of the slot type concatenation game. Further, the slot type concatenation game may be user-configurable. Users may be allowed to indicate the number of the symbol reels that may include value symbols that will be concatenated along a payline defined by the trigger symbol. Users may be allowed indicate the denomination set that is used to configure the symbol reels with value symbols, such as from one or more value symbol tables.

The present disclosure concerns a low-power location awareness system for electronic devices (e.g., mobile devices) operating inside significant locations (e.g., a casino environment), wherein the electronic device includes an improved proximity-sensing feature (e.g., via a mobile app executing on a player's device) that provides the option to track the player within the (in this example) casino environment. To address security (and power-consumption) concerns, the proximity-sensing feature may utilize a two-level fencing verification process, i.e., geofencing and beacon fencing, before availing itself to the beacon sightings. In other words, the proximity-sensing features (e.g., displaying a coupon deal or customized greetings) will be made available to the mobile app and/or electronic device only after both fencing verification requirements are met. These techniques help to optimize the use of battery power while the electronic device is implementing the proximity-sensing features by operating in two location-awareness modes: beacon monitoring mode and beacon ranging mode.

The present disclosure concerns automatic distributed on-board controllers (OBCs) for electronic gaming machines (EGMs). In particular, various schemes to host a distributed OBC across multiple peer machines are disclosed herein. Traditionally, a “progressive” controller for a set of EGMs comprises a set of services that runs on dedicated servers/hardware and provides progressive functionality (e.g., tracking and administering various “progressive jackpots”) for a large number of EGMs. One aim of the OBC schemes disclosed herein is to eliminate the need for dedicated servers or additional hardware for smaller scale progressive setups, such as a relatively small area or a moderately-sized bank of connected EGMs (e.g., less than 32 games) on a casino floor. The embodiments disclosed herein may advantageously help to reduce the cost of running progressives or other forms of group-related or synchronized media information for smaller banks of games, as well as provide additional fault tolerance and data redundancy.
