(54) A gaming system, a gaming server and a gaming method


(57) A gaming system for multiple region game play, which system has:
a gaming server; and
a plurality of gaming clients in data communication with the gaming server including a first gaming client located in a first region having a first currency and a second gaming client located in a second region having a second currency.
The gaming server executes a game instance for the gaming clients to enable players operating the gaming clients to engage in game play wherein game outcomes are based in part on an amount of game credits wagered in the game play. The gaming server supports a value of game credits being derived directly from a denomination of a local currency of the first and second regions in local region play such that the value is different in system base credits in different regions and the value of game credits is the same in system base credits for the first and second regions in interregional play.
