Entertainment gaming machine based on non-random outcomes

A gaming system configured to provide interactive play of a game on a mobile device comprising:

• a central server configured to receive one or more non-random number based outcomes in connection with a real world event, wherein the central server is in communication with a database, the database storing the received one or more non-random number based outcomes in connection with the real world event;
• a controller configured to associate the received one or more non-random number based outcomes with outcomes in a game displayed on a display device associated with the mobile device, wherein the received one or more non-random number based outcomes comprise one or more securities positions subject to market fluctuations, wherein responsive to the controller detecting a triggering event in a session of the game displayed on the display device, the controller processing the received one or more non-random number based outcomes in combination with an algorithm, the algorithm being configured to use historical volatility of the one or more securities positions to determine probable future pricing for the one or more securities and in comparison with the received one or more non-random number based outcomes for the one or more securities, the algorithm being further configured to facilitate the determination of a game session outcome for the session of the game displayed on the display device without a preset payback percentage;
• and
• a communication device configured to display on the display device as the game session outcome of the game.

A method for providing a game over a communication network without a preset payback percentage, comprising the steps of:

• a central server operatively associated with a memory, a processor and a data communication device in communication with a mobile device through the communication network, the data communication device receiving one or more non-random number based outcomes in connection with a real world event;
• storing the received one or more non-random number based outcomes in connection with the real world event in a database;
• the processor associating the received one or more non-random number based outcomes with outcomes in a game displayed on a display device associated with the mobile device, wherein the non-random number based outcomes comprise one or more securities positions subject to market fluctuations;
• responsive to the processor detecting a triggering event in a session of the game displayed on the display device associated with the mobile device, the controller processing the non-random number based outcomes in combination with an algorithm, wherein the algorithm is configured to use historical volatility of the one or more securities positions to determine probable future pricing for the one or more securities and in comparison with the received non-random number based outcomes for the one or more securities, and wherein the algorithm is further configured to facilitate the determination of a game session outcome for the session of the game displayed on the display device without a preset payback percentage;
• and
• displaying on the display device the game session outcome of the game.
