Abstract
A multilayer framework and architecture with variable video or digital gaming capabilities provides multiple levels of play, permitting players to engage in different ways. The different levels of play options include 1) a peer-to-peer competitive challenge level for 'core' players, 2) a 'follower' play option for players with restricted capabilities and access to portions of a game; and a 3) “bystander” play option that permits non-players in a network to either observe or play from a reactive perspective.
