  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, but before that, an outline of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  The outline of the present invention relates to a mini game incorporated as a function of a social game. Specifically, the present invention relates to a mini game whose difficulty level changes (adjusts) according to the number of friend users in the social game. Here, the friend user is a term indicating a user in which a friend relationship is established in a social game, that is, a friend. As a method for constructing a friend relationship, for example, a predetermined user sends a friend registration request to another user, and the other user approves this friend registration request, thereby constructing a friend relationship. There is. However, the method of constructing the friend relationship is not limited to the above method. In addition, “a user for whom a friend relationship is established” may be read as “a user in a friend relationship”.

  In the following description, it is assumed that the social game is a card battle game using card characters as game elements such as various characters, and the mini game is a rhythm game in which a user performs a predetermined operation according to music. explain. However, the social game and the mini game are not limited to the card battle game and the rhythm game, respectively.

  The mini game in the outline of the present invention is not a game that can be played at all times while a social game is being played, but a game that can be played only when a predetermined condition is satisfied. However, the mini game does not necessarily need to be a game that can be played only when a predetermined condition is satisfied. As described above, a mini game may be a game that can be played at all times while a social game is being played.

  In addition, as an example of the predetermined conditions for playing a mini game, when a social game is a card battle game, for example, strengthening and synthesizing a card character, evolutionly synthesizing a card character, and the like can be given. In other words, the mini game in the outline of the present invention, that is, the rhythm game, is assumed to be a game that can be played when the user inputs that the card character is to be enhanced or evolved.

  Here, the enhanced synthesis of card characters refers to an act of increasing various parameters (eg, attack power, defense power, hit points, etc.) that can determine the superiority or inferiority of the card character in the card battle game. Further, the evolution synthesis of a card character refers to an act of generating a new card character using a plurality of card characters in a card battle game. Note that the reinforcement synthesis and evolution synthesis of these card characters are generally not necessarily successful, that is, if the card character reinforcement synthesis is performed, various parameters always increase. Such a card character is not necessarily generated, and the success or failure of the enhanced synthesis and evolutionary synthesis of the card character is determined randomly.

  For this reason, the rhythm game in the outline | summary of this invention assumes the game which had the effect which raises the success rate of the reinforcement | strengthening synthesis | combination of a card character, and evolution synthesis | combination according to the result of the said rhythm game.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a rhythm game screen in the outline of the present invention. In this rhythm game, as shown in FIG. 1, a first object O1 composed of a plurality of concentric circles and a second object O2 moving on the screen are displayed on the screen, and within a predetermined time limit ( For example, the game is a game in which a predetermined score can be obtained by placing the second object O2 on the first object O1 by the user's operation until a predetermined music performance is finished). Is a game in which a higher score can be obtained as the position where the second object O2 is arranged is closer to the center of the first object O1. For example, in this rhythm game, the case where the second object O2 is arranged between the concentric circle R1 and the concentric circle R2 among the three concentric circles R1 to R3 constituting the first object O1 is “successful”. The case of being placed between R2 and the concentric circle R3 is “very successful”, the case of being placed in the concentric circle R3 is “super-success”, and “success”, “great success” and “super-success” A score corresponding to the stage) can be obtained. Furthermore, in this rhythm game, the case where the second object O2 is arranged at a position different from the position on the first object O1 is “failure”, and the score corresponding to “failure” is the score obtained so far. Subtracted from the cumulative total (hereinafter referred to as cumulative score). The score bar located at the top of the screen shown in FIG. 1 indicates the cumulative score acquired by the user in one rhythm game. The higher the cumulative score at the end of the rhythm game, the stronger the card character is strengthened. And the success rate of evolutionary synthesis is high.

  As described above, this rhythm game is a game whose degree of difficulty changes according to the number of friend users. As a method of changing the difficulty level, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, there is a method of increasing the size of the second object O2 as the number of friend users increases. In the example of FIG. 2, when the number of friend users is 15, the size of the second object O2 is 1.5 times larger than when the number of friend users is 10. ing.

  As another method of changing the difficulty level, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, there is a method of slowing down the speed at which the second object O2 moves on the screen as the number of friend users increases. In the example of FIG. 3, when the number of friend users is 15, the moving speed of the second object O2 is 2/3 times the moving speed compared to when the number of friend users is 10. ing.

  As another method of changing the difficulty level, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, the greater the number of friend users, the more concentric circle R3 that is closer to the center among the plurality of concentric circles R1 to R3 constituting the first object O1. There is a way to increase the size. In the example of FIG. 4, when the number of friend users is 15, compared to when the number of friend users is 10, a concentric circle R3 closer to the center among the plurality of concentric circles R1 to R3 constituting the first object. This indicates that the size of is 1.5 times larger.

  However, the method for changing the difficulty level of the rhythm game in the outline of the present invention is not limited to the above-described method, and may be a combination of the above-described plurality of methods, for example. A method (for example, extending the time limit) may be used. That is, as a method for changing the difficulty level of the game, any method can be used as long as it is a method for changing a game parameter, a game algorithm, or the like according to the number of friend users. In addition, the change of the difficulty level is not limited to the case of lowering according to the number of friend users (since increasing the difficulty level may be an interesting game), the difficulty level is within a range lower than the threshold value. If there is, it may be raised according to the number of friend users. However, in order to increase the difficulty level of the game, it is preferable to increase other incentives such as the score that can be acquired and the success rate of enhanced synthesis / evolutionary synthesis.

  In the outline of the present invention, it is assumed that the rhythm game can be played when an input for performing the enhanced synthesis or evolutionary synthesis of the card character is made. For example, the rhythm game is played by consuming friend points. It may be possible. For example, the friend point indicates a point obtained each time a friend relationship is established with another user.

  In the game as described above, as the number of friend users increases, the difficulty level of the game can be reduced, and as a result, the success rate of enhanced synthesis and evolution synthesis of card characters can be expected. Actions such as building relationships can be activated.

  The above is the outline of the present invention. Next, details of one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating a concept of a connection architecture between the web server device 2 and the mobile terminals 4A to 4C according to the present embodiment. As shown in the figure, when executing an online game program or application program provided by Company A, the mobile terminal 4A to 4C includes the game program or application program described in, for example, AIR (registered trademark). An application execution environment C1 is installed, and a company A database connection kit C2 for connecting to the database of company A and performing accounting processing and the like is incorporated.

  At the same time, the (software) client-side framework C3 developed by Company A is installed for the part where the mobile terminals 4A to 4C communicate with the web server device 2.

  One web server device 2 is provided with a server-side JavaScript (registered trademark) execution environment S1 described in, for example, Node.js (registered trademark) for executing online games and applications, and mobile terminals 4A to 4C. In the part that communicates with the above, a framework S2 on the company A (software) server side corresponding to the framework C3 is provided.

  Between the framework C3 of the portable terminals 4A to 4C and the framework S2 of the web server device 2, item information and the like are transmitted and received based on the web socket (WebSocket) which is a standard related to HTML5.

  According to WebSocket, once handshake is performed between server clients using HTTP (hyper text transfer protocol), and connection is established between server clients, without using HTTP (request and response method), Bidirectional communication is performed using a protocol dedicated to web sockets. The bi-directional communication by the web socket is premised on a long-time connection, and is continuously executed until disconnected by the server or the client. Further, the communication by the web socket has an advantage that the header information and the processing load (overhead) are smaller than the HTTP communication. Further, the communication by the web socket has an advantage that all devices in the connected state can transmit and receive the same data in real time and share them. Further, in the web socket, transmission can be performed from either the client side or the server side. For example, data can be push-distributed from the server side to the client side.

  Thus, according to the web socket, real-time communication with a small processing load can be realized, and unlike the conventional case, a plurality of client devices can be connected to the server device without limiting the number of client devices, and various games can be obtained. (E.g., card battle game, rhythm game, etc.) can be realized.

  The frameworks C3 and S2 are described using, for example, JavaScript as a script language independent of the OS. Therefore, the same connection environment can be constructed regardless of whether the OS of the mobile terminals 4A to 4C is any OS such as Android and iOS.

  Next, an example of the operation of the game system configured as described above will be described with reference to the schematic diagram of FIG. 7 and the flowchart of FIG. In the following description, it is assumed that the programs p_s1 to p_s3 illustrated in FIG. 6 are installed in the web server device 2 in advance. Similarly, it is assumed that the programs p_c1 to p_c4 illustrated in FIG. 8 are installed in the mobile terminal 4A when the service is first received from the company A. Further, in the following description, from the viewpoint of simplifying the description, a description that a communication unit is interposed in transmission and reception is omitted.

  First, in the web server device 2, when the processor 23 receives input of user identification information for identifying the user together with an input indicating that the rhythm game is started by an operation of the user of the mobile terminal 4 </ b> A, the input is performed. The friend user number information associated with the received user identification information is acquired from the memory 21 (step ST1). In this operation example, the processor 23 inputs the user identification information “user1” together with an input to start a rhythm game accompanying an input to perform either the enhanced synthesis or the evolutionary synthesis of the card character in the card battle game. It is assumed that the friend user number information “15” associated with the user identification information “user1” is acquired from the memory 21.

  Subsequently, in the web server device 2, the processor 23 adjusts the difficulty level of the rhythm game to be lowered according to the number of friend users “15” indicated by the friend user number information acquired in the process of step S <b> 1. (Step ST2).

  That is, in the process of step S2, it is determined how much the number of friend users indicated by the friend user number information acquired in the process of step S1 is larger than the number of friend users serving as a preset index. Then, after determining how much the difficulty level of the rhythm game is to be lowered based on the determination result, the difficulty level of the rhythm game is lowered using, for example, any of the methods described with reference to FIGS. Adjust to. For example, when the number of friend users serving as a preset index is 10 and the method described with reference to FIG. 2 for the difficulty level of the rhythm game is used, the information on the number of friend users acquired in the process of step S1 above. The number “15” of friend users indicated by is 1.5 times the number of “10” friend users serving as a preset index, and thus the size of the second object O2 is 1.5 times larger. Adjust the difficulty level of the rhythm game so that

  Next, in the web server device 2, the processor 23 uses the mobile terminal 4 </ b> A, that is, the user identification information “user1” to store game data for enabling the rhythm game whose difficulty level is adjusted in the process of step S <b> 2. The data is sent to the mobile terminal operated by the identified user (step ST3).

  Subsequently, in the mobile terminal 4A, when the processor 43A receives an input of game data sent from the web server device 2, the rhythm game is started in accordance with the game data received (step ST4).

  Next, in the portable terminal 4A, the processor 43A sends to the web server device 2 the result of the rhythm game started in the process of step S4, that is, result data indicating the cumulative score (step ST5).

  Thereafter, in the web server device 2, when the processor 23 receives the input of the result data sent from the portable terminal 4A, the processor 23 starts the rhythm game according to the cumulative score indicated by the result data of the input. A process of increasing the success rate of the enhanced synthesis or evolutionary synthesis of the card character that is to be executed is executed (step ST6), and the operations in the web server device 2 and the portable terminal 4A in this operation example are terminated.

  It should be noted that how much the success rate of enhanced synthesis or evolutionary synthesis of card characters is increased in accordance with the cumulative score is set in the web server device 2 in advance, and specific numerical values can be arbitrarily set. It shall be possible.

  In this embodiment, the rhythm game is assumed to be a web application. However, the present invention is not limited to the web application. For example, the rhythm game is realized as a native application or a hybrid application using both the web application and the native application. It does not matter.

  According to the present embodiment described above, an action of constructing a friend relationship with another user can be activated by adjusting the game difficulty level according to the number of friend users.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, as the number of friend users increases, the difficulty level of the game can be lowered, and as a result, it is possible to expect an increase in the success rate of enhanced synthesis and evolution synthesis of card characters. Actions such as building friendships with other users can be activated.

  Here, for example, a first object composed of a plurality of concentric circles and a second object that moves on the screen are displayed, and the second object is arranged on the first object by the user's operation. In the case of a game in which the position where the two objects are arranged is closer to the center of the first object and the score is higher, the closer to the center of the first object, the higher the success rate of enhanced synthesis / evolution synthesis (= higher) Since it is intuitively understood that a score) can be obtained, motivation for the game can be improved.

  In this game, when the size of the second object is increased as the number of friend users increases, the user who has a large number of friend users is likely to obtain a high score. (= Act of building friendship with other users) can be activated.

  Further, when the speed of movement of the second object is decreased as the number of friend users increases, the act of increasing the number of friend users can be activated for the same reason.

  Furthermore, when the size of the concentric circle near the center among the plurality of concentric circles constituting the first object is increased as the number of friend users increases, the act of increasing the number of friend users for the same reason is activated. Can be made.

  Note that the method described in the above embodiment includes a magnetic disk (floppy (registered trademark) disk, hard disk, etc.), an optical disk (CD-ROM, DVD, etc.), a magneto-optical disk (MO) as programs that can be executed by a computer. ), And can be stored and distributed in a computer-readable storage medium such as a semiconductor memory.
