Abstract:
Provided is an interactive gaming system and method. The system includes a mobile computing device operating a gaming application and an achievement engine communicatively coupled to the mobile computing device, wherein the achievement engine receives and stores data related to use of the gaming application. An electronic offer redeemable in a physical store is generated by the achievement engine and sent to the mobile computing device in response to a user completing a predetermined event in the gaming application operating. The system includes a tracking system located in a store associated with the interactive gaming system. The tracking system identifies the mobile computing device operating in the store and sends event data to the achievement engine in response to determining the user has performed an in-store trigger event. The mobile computing device receives gaming benefits in response to the achievement engine processing the event data received from the tracking system.
