Location-restricted games are enabled on wireless devices, and even personal computers, to participate online in location-restricted games such as lottery if verified to be physically present in the relevant geographic area. The location-enabled gaming device forces or otherwise triggers a network based secure location request to find the current geographic location of the gaming device on which the location-restricted game is attempted to be played. A request is periodically triggered for a fresh current geographic location of the location-enabled gaming device, to permit the location-enabled gaming device to continue to operate the location-restricted game application as being still within an acceptable or otherwise authorized geographic location. Failure to receive a response to a location request, or in required accuracy, results in termination of the location-restricted gaming application.
