Abstract

In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a gaming device. The gaming device may include a random number generator (83). A skill game device may also be included. The skill game device is configured to allow a game player to play a skill game having a skill game outcome. The skill game outcome is influenced by the skill of the game player and the skill game outcome may be displayed to the player. The gaming device may also include a processor (85) in communication with the random number generator. The processor may be configured to randomly determine a prize and to calculate a multiplier (84) that may be the quotient of the prize divided by the skill game outcome. The gaming device may also include a display (54, 56) in communication with the processor and the skill game device. The display may be adapted to show both the prize and the multiplier.
