Abstract
A first electronic gaming machine (“EGM”) includes a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the EGM to perform operations. The operations include determining that a first event has been triggered on a second EGM. The second EGM can be separate from the first EGM. The operations can further include, responsive to determining that the first event has been triggered on the second EGM, adjusting a probability of triggering a second event on the first EGM.
Claims19
A first electronic gaming machine (“EGM”) comprising:
- a processor circuit;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor circuit, the memory comprising machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the EGM to perform operations comprising:
- determining that a first event has been triggered on a second EGM, the second EGM being separate from the first EGM;
- responsive to determining that the first event has been triggered on the second EGM, adjusting a probability of triggering a second event on the first EGM.
A system comprising:
- a processor circuit;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor circuit, the memory comprising machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to perform operations comprising:
- determining that a first event has been triggered on a first EGM;
- responsive to determining that the first event has been triggered on the first EGM, transmitting a message to a second EGM that is separate from the first EGM, the message indicating that the second EGM adjust a probability of triggering a second event on the second EGM.
