SYSTEM AND METHOD OF REVEALING REAL WORLD WAGER OUTCOMES BASED ON USER INTERACTIONS WITH INTERACTIVE MEDIA

摘要

The invention relates to systems and methods of selecting and placing real-world wagers responsive to one or more wager triggers, obtaining outcomes of the real-world wagers, facilitating user interactions with various interactive media, and revealing the outcomes of the real-world wagers through the interactive media to give an appearance that the outcomes of the real-world wagers resulted from the user interactions even though the outcomes resulted from the real-world wagers and were determined before the user interactions. By integrating real-world wager outcomes with gameplay and other user interactions, the system may provide an engaging user experience with interactive media. For example, a game may reveal an outcome of a real-world wager (which has already occurred), in response to in-game actions such as user actions in the game, other players' actions in the game, game events (e.g., events caused by the game logic/artificial intelligence), and/or other events.

主权项

1. A computer implemented method of revealing outcomes of real world wagers through interactive media such that user interactions with the interactive media appear to result in the outcomes, the method being implemented in a computer system having one or more physical processors programmed with computer program instructions that, when executed by the one or more physical processors, cause the computer system to perform the method, the method comprising:
processing, by the computer system, an initiation of a real-world wager; obtaining, by the computer system, one or more wager parameters that specify the real world wager; placing, by the computer system, the real-world wager based on the one or more wager parameters; determining, by the computer system, an outcome of the real-world wager such that the outcome is predetermined; obtaining, by the computer system, one or more reveal parameters that specify a timing and/or a reveal mechanism that indicates a manner in which to reveal at least a portion of the outcome; and revealing, by the computer system, the portion of the outcome of the real-world wager via the interactive media based on the one or more reveal parameters to give the user the impression that user interaction with the interactive media resulted in the portion of the outcome.
