Abstract
A method for playing a value-variable game of chance includes providing a random number generator including one or more walls forming a grid, the grid including an entrance zone and a finishing zone, and the grid being configured to support a transit of a puck from the entrance zone to the finishing zone; providing the finishing zone as including two or more finishing positions, each of the finishing positions configured to receive the puck, and each of the finishing positions being assigned a different finishing position value; providing the grid as including one or more deflectors; introducing a puck into the grid at the entrance zone and subjecting the puck to a force to drive the puck to the finishing zone, and allowing the puck to be deflected off any of the deflectors that it impacts during the puck's transit.
Claims17
A method for playing a value-variable game of chance, said method comprising:
- providing a random number generator comprising one or more walls forming a grid, said grid including an entrance zone and a finishing zone, and said grid being configured to provide a transit for a puck from said entrance zone to said finishing zone;
- providing said finishing zone as including two or more finishing positions, each of said finishing positions configured to receive said puck, and each of said finishing positions being assigned a different finishing position value;
- providing said grid as comprising one or more deflectors configured to deflect said puck upon an impact of said puck with a given one of said deflectors;
- introducing a puck into said grid at said entrance zone and driving said puck to said finishing zone, and allowing said puck to be deflected off any of said deflectors that it impacts during said puck's transit;
- providing a propulsion unit on the puck to propel the puck during game play;
- receiving a player input while said puck is in transit through said grid and at a time prior to the arrival of said puck at a given one of said finishing positions;
- changing the finishing position value of the finishing position where the puck concludes its transit based on said player input to set a player value;
- and
- using said player value in determining the winner of said game.
