摘要： A gaming system is disclosed having a gaming terminal including at least one input device and at least one display device and a network coupled to the gaming terminal. At least one memory device stores assets of a wagering game. The assets include a first asset and a second asset. The second asset is capable of replacing the first asset. The memory device stores a rule set ranking a level of importance of the assets. Instructions are stored that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the gaming system to negotiate between the gaming terminal and the network to select either the first asset or the second asset. The selection is made according to the level of importance of the first and second assets in the stored rule set. The wagering game with the selected asset is then displayed.

摘要： Systems and operations for a distributed bonus game feature for wagering game systems are disclosed. In one example, a wagering game may award a bonus game to a player. A delay period is set for the bonus game. The delay period and other details regarding the bonus game are persistently stored on a paper ticket or in a database on a wagering game server. The bonus game may be initiated (after the delay period) on a different wagering game machine than the machine that awarded the bonus game. In a second example, funding for a bonus game for a player may be determined in accordance with a random number generator on a wagering game machine currently occupied by a player. If the player moves to a different machine, output from a random number generator on the new machine may be used to determine continued funding for the bonus game.

摘要： A community game that adapts a scene on a community display based on the number of participating players and/or player locations from one session of the community game to another or in any given session and/or number of the gaming terminals. Selectable elements are displayed on the community display for selection by the participating players. When additional players are eligible to participate in the community game, a field of view or a virtual camera angle of a scene is changed to reveal additional selectable elements or a greater variety of selectable elements than were available for selection with fewer participating players. Any of the selectable elements can be cooperatively selectable elements which multiple players can select to reveal an enhanced award. Based on the players' locations, the scene can be adapted to portray selectable elements or previously hidden or obscured areas of the scene closest to the newly participating player(s).
