Abstract
A computerized method and processing system provides for supplementing multiplayer video game gameplay. The method and system includes detecting a user disengaging from the multiplayer video game gameplay prior to a completion of a gameplay contest. The method and system further includes engaging the user in a mini-game computing event concurrent with the gameplay contest. If the user achieves a positive outcome in the mini-game computing event, the method and system presents the user with at least one gaming asset usable within the gameplay contest and updates the user account data relating to the gaming asset. Herein, the method and system continues to engage game players not active in the multiplayer contest via mini-games and allowed them to earn additional in-game rewards.
