Method of authorizing free play of an amusement game

摘要

A method of permitting a player to play an amusement game at a given amusement game location free of charge includes the player transmitting information to an authorizing agent including information identifying at least one amusement game location. The authorizing agent creates free play authorization information and transmits the free play authorization information to one or more amusement games in the location identified by the player-transmitted information. The authorizing agent transmits to the player free play identifying information corresponding to the free play authorization information. One or more amusement games at the location identified by the player are responsive to the free play authorizing information for permitting at least one free play when corresponding free play identifying information is entered by a player.
