Description

The present invention relates to games on the Internet, in particular, to an erasure game in which a player deletes a portion of an image in order to open game signs, the coincidence of which determines a win.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Game cards for erased games can now be purchased at retail stores such as a self-service grocery store. Such games are very successful and find followers in the form of permanent and temporary players. However, to participate in such games, players must visit the game card sales store.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

The main objective of the present invention is to provide players with an erased game through electronic media.

Another objective of the invention is to create game cards for playing with erasure in the form of images created by electronic means and transmitted over the Internet.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An image of the card for the erased game displayed on the Internet page is created by forming an image of this game, which includes one or more alphanumeric images and / or characters that make up the classic game to match the erasure of the mask. Areas containing game elements are replaced or covered by a second image that obscures game elements that may be present (or absent) as hidden parts of the main game card. The player (browser) tries to determine if the game card contains a win by moving the cursor over the image areas on the map that hide the game areas. In this case, the covering image or mask is removed from the screen or the image of the game characters is triggered in order to give the player the impression that his or her action with the cursor removes the character coverage. In the best embodiment of the invention, game alphanumeric images and / or characters are created according to the law of a random number generator. These and other objects and features of the invention will become more apparent upon reading the detailed description of the best mode for carrying out the invention, which is accompanied by the attached drawings, in which:

Brief Description of the Drawings

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a functional sequence used to implement a preferred embodiment of the invention;

FIG. 2 is a simulation of a typical pre-registration of a player on an Internet page, as an example embodiment of the invention;

in FIG. 3 shows the interactive hyperlink structure, which is the basis for the implementation of the invention;

FIG. 4 is an exemplary web page containing a typical partially erased game card;

in FIG. 5 shows the development of a typical erasing game.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In the best embodiment of the invention, the image of the card for the erased game is retrieved from the Internet and displayed on the browser display. The image of the game card contains alphanumeric information and / or characters created using a random number generator. In the provider’s source of information, a cover image is applied to at least a portion of a game card containing randomly generated game elements, and fused images are provided as an Internet page. After the game is authorized, a pair of superimposed images in the corresponding image file is transmitted to the selected player via the Internet. Random game elements are not formed until the network viewer selects a game and fulfills any predefined conditions. After creating a game card, the provider knows the state of winning / losing the card, but the browser does not know anything about it. The movement of the browser cursor on the screen is read via an external communication line connecting the display of the browser network page with the game map cover image file and creates a permanent window, deleting part of the cover image file as the cursor moves along different coordinates of the image on the screen. Thus, portions of the underlying image of the game card file are opened. On the other hand, moving the cursor draws game images to create an identical effect for the player. The game service provider has already determined whether the open parts of the image of the game card give a win, and the movements of the browser cursor simply inform the provider that the browser is playing. If the disclosed parts of the game’s card image are a winning set and the browser is known as a legitimate player, the latter is notified of the win and the browser’s credit card is replenished accordingly, or if the actual prize, rather than credit, is issued, an email will notify the winning browser that that the prize has been handed over to the prize provider so that the prize can be sent to the browser.

The functional sequence used to implement the preferred embodiment is shown in FIG. 1. Browser

The Internet is brought up to the advertising headline during the normal browsing function on the network, or hyperlinks to the participating advertiser. The advertising heading is followed by the identification of the game and the selected emblems of the sponsor in the program block 11, which includes hyperlinks 12 for moving the browser and the prospective player to the web pages, which include information related to the game, in particular, instructions for players 14, list of prizes 15, rules the game 16 and the list of sponsors participating 17.

After receiving the first group of hyperlink pointers 12, the prospective player usually goes to the Prizes 15 network page. This list entices the player to further attempts by going to the network page containing program block 11 with an indication of “how to play” on the network page 14, or to the “rules” network page 15, moving back to program block 11, after each network page has been examined. With sufficient motivation, the prospective player can select the demo game pointer 18, which hyperlinks the player to the game on the network page 19. This network page is identical to the appearance of the actual game page of network 20. It automatically links the player to the game demo card with erasure 21, which is identical actual game card 22.

After answering the “instant win games” questions, the data is checked by the operational management of the competitions in a real-time environment 41. If the data confirms the legitimacy of the player, the game card is randomly selected and registered as a winning or non-winning card in accordance with the rules of the game. A primary or cover image is superimposed on the game card, which masks the game card in areas containing numbers or characters that make up the erased game variables, and this composite object is offered to the playing browser as an automatic hyperlinked network page 42, which appears as a regular game game card with erasure shown in FIG. 4, with instructions to erase certain sections by moving the pointing cursor to these sections to determine if this card is a winning one. On the game card 50 shown in FIG. 4, only one full mask 51 remains. Four masks have been deleted (position 52), and cursor 53 is in the process of removing the fifth mask 54.

The actions of the player of the erased game lead to the sending of an e-mail message to the operational management of the competition 41 and to the administration of the office of “cyber money” 43. The operational management of the competition 41 ensures the sending of prizes to the winners and the collection of completed forms. The administration of the cyber money office will debit the corresponding merchant-participant with the amount for the prize and credit the player’s account with cyber money.

In a better embodiment of the invention, when a player enters personal data and activates a hyperlink indicator, I agree to play in FIG. 2, the player data is transmitted to the head site of the competition 61 in FIG. 5. The head of the competition checks the player’s legitimacy on the basis of the data 62 and randomly forms the characters of the game card of the game with erasure 63. Game characters can be a separate character or a set of characters. At this point, the competition leader determines whether the randomly selected signs are winning, 64.

The head of the competition generates a player’s game card image file using any of the many well-known image creation programs. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the image file is selected as a graphic data exchange format file, since it is optimized for electronic download and, therefore, works faster than better 1REO files. Game characters are merged into the main static image of the game card and placed on the network page along with a file format for exchanging graphic data of a static game card with empty windows covering areas of the game card that contain game characters. This is a cover image. Two images of the game card: the image of the game sign 14 and the covering image are superimposed on the same section of the network page and transmitted to the player 66. Together with it, a program is also transmitted that will enable the terminal initiated by the navigator 1AUA to selectively delete the covering image, to open game signs. If the receiving terminal does not have 1AUA program, the covering image will not be formed, the player will see on the screen only the image of the game sign. If the receiving terminal is initiated by the 1AUA program, both images are displayed and the player cannot see the game characters until he drags the cursor over a portion of the covering image masking the characters. As soon as the cursor is held over these sections 67, the covering image will be deleted or erased, allowing the player to see the main image of the character.

The head of the competition processes the prize 68 by crediting the players account or by initiating the dispatch of the won bonus.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described and shown in the drawings above, changes and modifications may occur, which is obvious to those skilled in the art. Image files may be different from the above, and game characters may be any kind of image in the form of numbers, dollar amounts, premium images, etc. Therefore, we are not limited only to the above options and the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims, which are given below.
