Abstract
Gaming servers and methods for use in providing a random reward to multiple players are disclosed. One exemplary method includes randomly shuffling bonus values between each of the plurality of gaming machines participating in the random reward, wherein the random reward includes a trigger condition triggering the random reward, upon shuffling the bonus values between each of the plurality of gaming machines. The method further includes determining if the trigger condition is satisfied by one of the plurality of gaming machines, and in response to the trigger condition being satisfied, awarding, at the gaming server, the random reward based on a final bonus value randomly shuffled to the one of the plurality of gaming machines from amongst each of the bonus values at a time the random reward is triggered.
