Abstract

A gaming machine for providing a skill-based wagering game to a player is described herein. The gaming machine includes a controller programmed to display the skill-based wagering game on a display device, receive a signal indicating a wager being received from the player, and initiate the skill-based wagering game. The controller determines a player skill level value associated with the player based on player skill operations received during game play and accesses RTP value data to determine an RTP value based on the determined player skill level value and the received wager amount. The controller generates a plurality of primary awards as a function of the determined RTP value, displays a primary award selection screen to select a primary award from the plurality of primary awards, and adjust the credit balance based on the player selected primary award.
