Abstract

Systems and methods to provide a game based on common media consumption are described herein. Exemplary implementations may: obtain sets of consumption information for users of a game; identify common media content that has been consumed by two or more users from the sets of consumption information for the two or more users; responsive to requests from users to play the game together, obtain game information that corresponds to the common media content; effectuate presentation of the game on computing platforms of the users based on the game information; and/or perform other operations.

Background

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE (1) The present disclosure relates to provide a game based on common media consumption. BACKGROUND (2) There are various trivia games that quiz players on TV shows, movies, actors, and/or other media content. SUMMARY (3) One aspect of the present disclosure relates to provide a game based on common media consumption. Various trivia games may quiz players on media content. However, when one or more players may not have actually consumed the media content, it might not be as fun or fair. A game of the present disclosure may be generated for a group of users based on their collective media consumption. For example, the game may comprise of a trivia game with questions generated about commonly consumed media content. (4) One or more implementations of a system configured to provide a game based on common media consumption may include one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions. The processor(s) may be configured to obtain sets of consumption information for users of the game. The sets of consumption information may specify individual sets of media content consumed by individual users. By way of non-limiting illustration, the sets of consumption information may include one or more of a first set of consumption information for a first user, a second set of consumption information for a second user, and/or other sets of consumption information for other users. The first set of consumption information may specify a first set of

Claims

1. A system configured to provide a game based on common media consumption, the system comprising: one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to: obtain sets of consumption information for users of a game, the sets of consumption information specifying individual sets of media content consumed by individual users, such that the sets of consumption information include a first set of consumption information for a first user and a second set of consumption information for a second user, the first set of consumption information specifying a first set of media content that has been consumed by the first user, and the second set of consumption information specifying a second set of media content that has been consumed by the second user; identify common media content that has been consumed by two or more users from the sets of consumption information for the two or more users, such that the common media content between the first user and the second user is identified, the common media content between the first user and the second user including media content that is common between the first set of media content and the second set of media content; responsive to requests from the users to play the game together, obtain game information that corresponds to the common media content between the users requesting to play the game together, the game information defining game content associated with the common media content, such that responsive to a request from the first user and the second user to play the game together, first game information defining first game content associated with the common media content between the first user and the second user is obtained; and effectuate presentation of the game on computing platforms of the users based on the game information, such that the game including the first game information is presented on a first computing platform associated with the first user and a second computing platform associated with the second user. || 11. A method to provide a game based on common media consumption, the method comprising: obtaining sets of consumption information for users of a game, the sets of consumption information specifying individual sets of media content consumed by individual users, the sets of consumption information including a first set of consumption information for a first user and a second set of consumption information for a second user, the first set of consumption information specifying a first set of media content that has been consumed by the first user, and the second set of consumption information specifying a second set of media content that has been consumed by the second user; identifying common media content that has been consumed by two or more users from the sets of consumption information for the two or more users, including identifying the common media content between the first user and the second user, the common media content between the first user and the second user including media content that is common between the first set of media content and the second set of media content; responsive to requests from the users to play the game together, obtaining game information that corresponds to the common media content between the users requesting to play the game together, the game information defining game content associated with the common media content, such that responsive to a request from the first user and the second user to play the game together, first game information defining first game content associated with the common media content between the first user and the second user is obtained; and effectuating presentation of the game on computing platforms of the users based on the game information, such that the game including the first game information is presented on a first computing platform associated with the first user and a second computing platform associated with the second user.
