Abstract:
A display device comprising a plurality of activatable display segments, a player input device and a controller. The plurality of activatable display segments are positioned to be viewed by a player, each display segment being configured to be individually activated and to communicate a potential outcome of a game. The player input device is positioned to be activated by the player, the player input device being configured to transmit a signal when the player activates the input device. The controller is in communication with each display segment and the player input device. The controller is configured to cause the display segments to be randomly and sequentially activated and deactivated; randomly determine an outcome of the game; determine at least one display segment that can communicate the outcome of the game; receive the signal produced by input device, when the player activates the input device; cause the display segments to stop being randomly and sequentially activated and deactivated; and cause the display segment that can communicate the outcome of the game to be activated, wherein the outcome of the game is communicated to the player and it appears that the outcome of the game was at least partially influenced by when the player activated the player input device.
