The present invention is to reduce the probability of occurrence of a mistake regarding the management work for a secret bet. A game system 1 is arranged to execute a game allowing selection of normal betting in which a bet is placed on the game and a content of the bet is public or secret betting in which the content of the bet is private until a game result of the game is determined, and includes a game management device 3 which includes a game management terminal 33 operated from outside and which executes the game and at least one bet management device 2 including a bet management terminal 21 operated from the outside and gaming value reader units 221 capable of reading, in a non-contact manner, gaming value information of a gaming medium used for the bet.

The present invention provides a terminal apparatus and an information management system that can facilitate to total sales and the like. A terminal apparatus communicably connected to a gaming machine in which a game can be played according to an inserted currency includes: a control device that executes an insertion process for converting an amount of the inserted currency into an amount of a specific currency based on a conversion rate for converting the amount of the inserted currency into the amount of the specific currency and a transmission device that transmits inserted currency information including currency information representing the type of the inserted currency and rate information representing the conversion rate used for conversion by the control device.

Chip racks include a rack for holding chips and a card reader. Gaming devices may include such chip racks.

A dedicated midair balloon-popping game apparatus is used by attaching to a drone that can be remotely controlled. The midair balloon-popping game apparatus includes: a container, which includes an attachment portion for attachment to the drone, and is capable of accommodating a balloon in an inflated state; a pressed portion which is provided on an outer side of the container; a balloon-popping member which acts to pop the balloon inside the container when the pressed portion is pressed; and a pressing portion configured to collide with a pressed portion of a midair balloon-popping game apparatus of another player.

An edge-side server, upon receiving a request transmitted from a player terminal, transmits a first response to the request to the player terminal, and, per certain period, transmits an aggregation result, in which the results of processing based on requests are aggregated, to a cloud-side server. Then, the edge-side server receives the result of processing based on the aggregation result, executed at the cloud-side server, and transmits the result of processing as a second response to the player terminal. For a single request, the player terminal receives the first response and the second response in this order via asynchronous I/O from the edge-side server.

A game table reading system comprises: a game table having a plurality of read areas including a plurality of betting areas; a plurality of read antennas installed corresponding to each of the plurality of read areas for reading RFID tags embedded in game tokens; a read-restricted antenna that restricts reading by the read antennas so that the read antennas do not read the RFID tags of the game tokens other than the read area corresponding to the read antennas; a read control device that acquires the information stored in the RFID tag; a read restriction control device that controls the read restriction antenna; a database that stores information on RFID tags; and a management control device that updates the database based on the relationship between the information on the RFID tag read by the read antenna and the read area where the RFID tag was read.

Even when exchange is performed at a wrong exchange rate, the wrong state is easily corrected to a state in which the exchange is performed at a correct exchange rate. An exchange rate management system P1 of an embodiment includes processing units P2 in which game play is possible with a value in an available currency exchanged from a value in an unavailable currency at an exchange rate, a main storage device A312 configured to store an exchange rate updated at a predetermined timing, a sub storage device A21 which is provided in each processing unit P2 to store an exchange rate, and a relay storage device A322 configured to store an exchange rate which is to be deployed in the sub storage device A21, in a manner of being updatable to the exchange rate stored in the main storage device A312. The main storage device A312, the sub storage device A21, and the relay storage device A322 include update time storage units A3121, A211, and A3221 storing a time when the exchange rate is updated, respectively.

Disclosed are toy battle dart shooting gameplay environments supporting players' dart projectile hits or tags with detectable projectile devices, systems, and methods for resolving hits to a targeted player from a toy projectile during gameplay. In certain configurations interactive shooting battling provide arrangements are between players individually or within an arena architecture facilitated Targeted Player Hit Resolution via data communications with detectable projectiles and interactive shooting systems and methods.

In a system having multiple coupling elements configured for single-handed coupling and single-handed de-coupling, each coupling element includes a body portion defining an opening and having a base configured to be free-standing. The body portion has an outer limb defining a hook member and at least one slot formed therein, the respective slot of a second initially free-standing coupling element being accessible to the respective hook member of a first suspended coupling element or vice versa. The coupling elements being configured so that mutual points of contact between the first and second coupling elements are maintained during both lifting and lowering the second coupling element thereby facilitating a one-handed intercoupling or decoupling operation with respect to a free standing coupling element disposed upright on a horizontal support surface.
