  This master thesis deals with Blockchain Technology in mobile turn based peer
to peer games. First, it investigates the capabilities of Blockchain Technology
to be used for gaming applications. In this regard, among others,
Proof-of-Mechanisms, Vote-based Consensus and several Performance Improvements
are described. Second, several smart contracts are introduced to show the
general feasibility of turn based games hosted on Blockchain Technology. More
specific, Hidden transactions, Randomization, Piles of Cards, Fog of War
elements, Data allocation improvements and other smart contracts are specified.
Third, a special Proof-of-Turn consensus mechanism, based on the Blockchain
Technology, is defined to enable game publishers to cut costs in the means of
their provided game servers. Herein, Byzantine Fault Tolerance, Peering, the
CAP Theorem, Interoperability among other characteristics are covered. Last,
these measures shall additionally raise the trust level among the players in
mobile turn based games.
