The present application is related to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/557,279, filed Aug. 30, 2019, entitled “SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SUPPLEMENTING A WAGERING GAME,” the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a gaming machine with stepper reel and display screen with a transitional graphical user interface;
FIG. 2 is a front view thereof;
FIG. 3 is a rear view thereof;
FIG. 4 is a right side view thereof;
FIG. 5 is a left side view thereof;
FIG. 6 is a top view thereof;
FIG. 7 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a first image in a sequence of a transitional graphical user interface according to a first embodiment;
FIG. 8 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a second image in the sequence;
FIG. 9 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a first image in a sequence of a transitional graphical user interface according to a second embodiment;
FIG. 10 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a second image in the sequence;
FIG. 11 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a first image in a sequence of a transitional graphical user interface according to a third embodiment;
FIG. 12 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a second image in the sequence;
FIG. 13 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a first image in a sequence of a transitional graphical user interface according to a fourth embodiment; and,
FIG. 14 is an enlarged front view thereof showing a second image in the sequence.
The appearance of the transitional image sequentially transitions between the images shown in FIGS. 7 - 8 in the first embodiment, FIGS. 9 - 10 in the second embodiment, FIGS. 11 - 12 in the third embodiment, and FIGS. 13 - 14 in the fourth embodiment. The process or period in which one image transitions to another image forms no part of the claimed design. Stippling in the drawings is used to indicate a contrast in appearance, with no specific color or other feature being claimed. The wavy broken line extending along the border of the stippled region of the display screen in FIGS. 11 - 14 represents a boundary line and forms no part of the claimed design. The remaining broken lines represent elements of the gaming machine with stepper reel and display screen with a transitional graphical user interface that form no part of the claimed design.
