Abstract

A skill level initiated interleaved wagering system is disclosed, including: an interactive controller configured to: communicate an application telemetry communication comprising application telemetry; scan an application resource instruction; and scan a wager outcome communication; a wager controller constructed to: scan a wager instruction; generate the wager outcome; communicate, to the application controller, the wager outcome communication comprising the wager outcome; and the application controller operatively connecting the interactive controller and the wager controller and constructed to: determine an application level change, wherein the application level is associated with a user; generate the wager instruction comprising one or more wager parameters used in determining wager outcomes; communicate, to the wager controller, the wager instruction; scan the wager outcome communication from the wager controller; generate the application resource instruction comprising application resources; communicate the application resource instruction; generate the wager outcome communication; and communicate the wager outcome communication.

Claims

1. A skill level initiated interleaved wagering system, comprising:

an interactive controller configured to;

communicate, to an application controller, an application telemetry communication comprising application telemetry;

scan an application resource instruction, from the application controller, for application resources based on the application telemetry; and

scan a wager outcome communication from the application controller for a wager outcome;

a wager controller constructed to;

scan a wager instruction from the application controller for a wager request;

generate the wager outcome based on the wager request;

communicate, to the application controller, the wager outcome communication comprising the wager outcome; and

the application controller operatively connecting the interactive controller and the wager controller and constructed to;

scan the application telemetry communication, from the interactive controller, to determine an application level change based on the application telemetry, wherein the application level is associated with a user;

generate the wager instruction comprising one or more wager parameters used in determining wager outcomes, the one or more wager parameters based on the application level;

communicate, to the wager controller, the wager instruction;

scan the wager outcome communication from the wager controller for the wager outcome;

generate the application resource instruction comprising application resources based on the wager outcome;

communicate, to the interactive controller, the application resource instruction;

generate the wager outcome communication based on the wager outcome; and

communicate, to the interactive controller, the wager outcome communication.

2. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1,

wherein the interactive controller and the application controller are constructed from the same device, and

wherein the application controller is operatively connected to the wager controller using a communication link.

3. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1,

wherein the wager controller and the application controller are constructed from the same device, and

wherein the application controller is operatively connected to the interactive controller using a communication link.

4. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1, wherein the interactive controller is further configured to communicate, to the application controller, a level reset communication, and

wherein the application controller is further constructed to:

scan the level reset communication from the interactive controller for a level reset indication; and

reset the application level associated with the user to a previous application level associated with the user.

5. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 4, wherein the level reset indication is communicated from the interactive controller based on an expiration of a predetermined amount of time.

6. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 4, wherein the level reset indication is communicated from the interactive controller based on the interactive controller scanning the wager outcome communication.

7. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1, wherein the application level is based on an amount of application credit earned by the user.

8. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1, wherein the application level is based on an interactive application level associated with an interactive application provided by the interactive controller.

9. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 1, wherein one of the one or more wager parameters comprises a paytable.

10. A skill level initiated interleaved wagering system, comprising:

a wager controller of the skill level initiated interleaved wagering system constructed to;

scan a wager instruction from an application controller for a wager request;

generate a wager outcome based on the wager request;

communicate, to the application controller, a wager outcome communication comprising the wager outcome; and

the application controller of a skill level initiated interleaved wagering system operatively connecting the wager controller to an interactive controller using a communication link and constructed to;

scan an application telemetry communication, from the interactive controller, to determine an application level change based on application telemetry, wherein the application level is associated with a user;

generate the wager instruction comprising one or more wager parameters used in determining wager outcomes, the one or more wager parameters based on the application level;

communicate, to the wager controller, the wager instruction;

scan a wager outcome communication from the wager controller for the wager outcome;

generate an application resource instruction comprising application resources based on the wager outcome;

communicate, to the interactive controller, the application resource instruction;

generate the wager outcome communication based on the wager outcome; and

communicate, to the interactive controller, the wager outcome communication.

11. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 10, wherein the application controller is further constructed to:

scan a level reset communication from the interactive controller for a level reset indication; and

reset the application level associated with the user to a previous application level associated with the user.

12. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 10, wherein the application level is based on an amount of application credit earned by the user.

13. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 10, wherein the application level is based on an interactive application level associated with an interactive application provided by the interactive controller.

14. The skill level initiated interleaved wagering system of claim 10, wherein one of the one or more wager parameters comprises a paytable.

15. A skill level initiated interleaved wagering system, comprising:

an interactive controller of the skill level initiated interleaved wagering system configured to;

communicate, to an application controller, an application telemetry communication comprising application telemetry;

scan an application resource instruction, from the application controller, for application resources based on the application telemetry; and

scan a wager outcome communication from the application controller for a wager outcome; and

the application controller of the skill level initiated interleaved wagering system operatively connecting the interactive controller to a wager controller and constructed to;

scan the application telemetry communication, from the interactive controller, to determine an application level change based on the application telemetry, wherein the application level is associated with a user;

generate a wager instruction comprising one or more wager parameters used in determining wager outcomes, the one or more wager parameters based on the application level;

communicate, to the wager controller, the wager instruction;

scan the wager outcome communication from the wager controller for the wager outcome;

generate the application resource instruction comprising application resources based on the wager outcome;

communicate, to the interactive controller, the application resource instruction;

generate the wager outcome communication based on the wager outcome; and
