Gaming device including a variable adjustment display

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium with instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• determine that a trigger condition of a plurality of trigger conditions stored in the storage medium has occurred
• identify a brightness command based upon the trigger condition and a lookup in the storage medium;
• transmit the brightness command to a monitor controller board of a display device, wherein the brightness command causes the monitor controller board to control a backlight of the display device to increase a brightness of the display device from a first brightness level to a second brightness level;
• and
• cause display at the display device of an animation associated with the trigger condition in synchronization with the increase in the brightness of the display device.

An electronic gaming device comprising:

• a game controller configured to generate a game outcome;
• a display device comprising:
• a display panel;
• a backlight for controlling a brightness of the display panel;
• and
• a monitor controller board in communication with the backlight and the display panel;
• and
• a display connector providing communication between the game controller and the monitor controller board, wherein the game controller is configured to:
• determine that a trigger condition of a plurality of trigger conditions has occurred;
• identify a brightness command based upon the trigger condition and a lookup in at least one memory device of the game controller;
• transmit the brightness command to the monitor controller board, wherein the brightness command causes the monitor controller board to control the backlight to increase the display brightness from a first brightness level to a second brightness level;
• and
• cause display at the display panel of an animation associated with the trigger condition in synchronization with the increase in display brightness.
