Abstract
Various types of entertainment venues, including theme or amusement parks, game arcades, and similar venues are improved by providing a local server exchanging data with a cloud server. The local server controls and communicates with game or entertainment elements at the venue. The game or entertainment elements may be games at the location, input devices used by participants, such as smart phones, and/or audio and video devices. The cloud server controls and communicates with off-site elements. The cloud server and local server may communicate and synchronize data over the internet. The entertainment venue consequently can provide varying and evolving experiences through gamification.
