Abstract

A multiplayer game is supported by a backend game server and a plurality of clients configured to communicate over a computing network such as the internet. Images for display on the clients are at least partially rendered by the backend game server and then delivered in an at least partially rendered form to the clients. At the clients the delivered images may be further rendered and are displayed to a player of the game. The displayed images optionally include images of real-world objects.
