1. A system for presenting a three-dimensional (3D) skill-based game, the system comprising:
a non-transitory storage medium storing machine-readable code;
an activity server system comprising a processor configured to execute the machine-readable code and to communicate over a wide area network with a plurality of presentation computing devices, each distinct one of the presentation devices associated with a distinct one of a plurality of users, and to receive information from the plurality of presentation computing devices; and
a device storage system coupled to the activity server system storing information concerning the plurality of users, each user identifiable by a user account;
wherein, the machine-readable code, when executed by the activity server system, causes performance of computer processes comprising:
separately responsive to communications initiated from each of the presentation devices, serving, over the wide area network, to the presentation devices, a set of 3D chance-based games, wherein each 3D chance-based game comprises a plurality of lottery plays, wherein each lottery play is represented in one position of a plurality of positions on at least one face of a plurality of faces of a 3D object and wherein each lottery play has a plurality of potential outcomes;
for each 3D chance-based game of the set, determining a set of game winning patterns, wherein each game winning pattern comprises a selection of at least two positions in the plurality of faces;
for each 3D chance-based game of the set, calculating and presenting an assigned fixed odds payout structure at a discount from a fair value of an expected payout table;
receiving, separately, over the wide area network, for each user playing at least one of the set of 3D chance-based games, user roster data characterizing, with respect to the selected 3D chance-based games, a set of selected outcomes from the plurality of potential outcomes, for each of the plurality of lottery plays;
designating, for each lottery play, a set of winning outcomes from the plurality of potential outcomes;
designating, as a winning position, each position in which at least one of the set of selected outcomes matches the set of winning outcomes;
making a comparison, for each 3D chance-based game of the set, of the winning positions to the set of game winning patterns;
for each 3D chance-based game of the set, using the comparison to determine if the user is a winner and assigning payouts to winning users based on the fixed odds payout structure.
