Furthermore, in this embodiment, the server-side recording unit 211 further records data regarding candidate objects and data regarding display effects.
Data related to candidate objects is data that defines the types and winning probabilities of objects (hereinafter referred to as candidate objects) that may be obtained by lottery for each object. Note that the type of candidate object and the probability of winning may be changed depending on the form of lottery.

The data regarding the display effect is data that defines the display effect when displaying a winning object in a lottery result display process that displays an object obtained by a lottery (hereinafter also referred to as a winning object). Examples of performances in the display performance include, as described above, the first-time winning performance, the second and subsequent winning performances, and the highest rare winning performance.
Furthermore, in this embodiment, the effects include effects unique to a specific object. The specific object-specific presentation is a presentation that is individually set for the specific object, and is performed when the specific object is displayed when the specific object is obtained (winning) in a lottery.

The server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212 functions as a data receiving unit and receives data sent from the player terminal 10. The data received from the player terminal 10 includes the aforementioned item purchase data, lottery request data, synchronization data, and the like.
The server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212 also functions as a data transmitting unit, and transmits data generated by the server-side data generating unit 214 to the player terminal 10. The data transmitted to the player terminal 10 includes the aforementioned lottery result display data and the like.

The terminal identifying unit 213 identifies the player terminal 10 that is the source of the data received by the server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212. For example, when the server-side data transmission/reception unit 212 receives lottery request data, the terminal identifying unit 213 identifies the player terminal 10 that is the source of the data, in other words, the player terminal 10 that has received the lottery request operation.

The server-side data generating unit 214 generates transmission data to the player terminal 10 specified by the terminal specifying unit 213, and for example, when the player terminal 10 that has received the lottery request operation is specified by the terminal specifying unit 213, , generates lottery result display data to be transmitted to the specified player terminal 10.

Here, to roughly explain the procedure for generating the lottery result display data, the server-side data generation unit 214 first analyzes the lottery request data received by the server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212, and the lottery format requested by the player ( Specifically, identify either the single-shot type or the N-series type.

Next, the server-side data generation unit 214 refers to data related to candidate objects recorded in the server-side recording unit 211, and based on the winning probability of each of the plurality of candidate objects, the server-side data generation unit 214 generates an object obtained by lottery (i.e., a winning probability). object). At this time, if the lottery is a single lottery, one winning object is determined, and if the lottery is an N consecutive lottery, N winning objects are determined.
Furthermore, when N winning objects are determined, a display order is set for each winning object.

Thereafter, the server-side data generation unit 214 refers to the data regarding the player to whom the winning object is given, among the data regarding the player recorded in the server-side recording unit 211, and calculates the number of times the winning object has been acquired in the past (i.e., The number of wins) is specified, and a performance is set according to the specified number of times. For example, if the number of past wins specified for a certain winning object is 0, a first-time winning effect is set as the effect for that winning object. Note that when N winning objects are determined, an effect is set for each winning object.

Finally, the server-side data generation unit 214 generates data for displaying the winning object with the set effect, and this data becomes the lottery result display data. In addition, when N winning objects are determined, a display effect is performed in which each of the N winning objects is displayed in the display order and each winning object is displayed one by one as the lottery result display data. Generate data.

The billing processing unit 215 performs billing processing on players who have purchased the lottery item. Specifically, when the server-side data transmission/reception unit 212 receives item purchase data, the terminal identification unit 213 identifies the player terminal 10 that is the source of the data. Furthermore, the billing processing unit 215 specifies the type and number of purchased items of the extracted item to be purchased from the item purchase data, and calculates the price according to the identification results.
Then, the billing processing unit 215 performs payment processing for the player who owns the player terminal 10 identified by the terminal identification unit 213 according to the calculated amount of the fee, specifically, debiting the pre-registered bank account. A request is made to a predetermined institution to perform processing or payment processing using a pre-registered credit card.

Note that if the billing is successful, the purchased lottery items of the type and number are given to the player who owns the player terminal 10 specified by the terminal specifying unit 213. Accordingly, among the data recorded in the server-side recording unit 211, the data regarding the player to whom the extraction item is given is updated so that the number of lottery items owned by that player is increased by the number of purchases.

<<About specific objects>>
The specific object is one of the objects obtained by lottery, and is a character or item that increases the number of times the lottery is performed.
To explain more specifically, if a preset number of draws are held, specifically, if N consecutive draws (N consecutive draws) are held, the When a specific object is included in the objects (winning objects), the number of times the lottery is held increases by the number of times corresponding to the specified number of times N, and in this embodiment, the number of times the lottery is performed increases by the same number of times as the specified number of times N (that is, +N times). It has become.
However, the number of times of implementation that increases due to the acquisition of a specific object is not limited to the same number as the specified number of times N, and may be set to any number of times, but it is more preferable that the number of times is determined according to the specified number of times N. For example, It is preferable that the number of times correspond to half of the prescribed number of times N, or the number of times that corresponds to the difference when a predetermined number of times is subtracted from the prescribed number of times N.
Note that the above-mentioned prescribed number of times N is an own number of 2 or more.

As described above, when the winning object is a specific object, the number of times the lottery is held increases, so in the lottery result display process executed on the player terminal 10 side, the number of times the lottery was held increased due to the acquisition of the specific object and the number of times the lottery was held originally. Objects obtained by lottery for the total number of times the lottery has been performed will be displayed.

To be more specific, in the lottery result display process when a specific object is included in the winning objects when N consecutive lots are carried out, as shown in FIG. The obtained object OJ, the specific object OJX, and the object OJ obtained by lottery for the number of times of implementation increased by the same number of times as the specified number of times N are displayed.
FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram of the lottery result display process when a specific object is obtained, and shows an example of an image displayed on the display 108 of the player terminal 10 by executing the lottery result display process.
Note that in the case shown in FIG. 9, the prescribed number of times N is set to 5 times, but this is not a limitation, and the content described above and the content explained below naturally applies when the prescribed number of times N is set to 2. This can also be applied to any number of times above.

In addition, in the lottery result display process when N consecutive lots are conducted, a display effect is normally performed that displays the winning objects obtained from N lots of lots for each object. When a specific object is included in the display, an effect individually set for the specific object is performed in the display effect described above.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the effect when displaying the specific object OJX on the display 108 is different from the effect when displaying other objects OJ. Visual effects such as messages and images that are not displayed are displayed to arouse the player's sense of excitement.

To further explain the specific object, if a specific object is obtained (winning) multiple times when an N-type lottery is conducted, the number of times corresponding to the number of specific objects obtained, specifically, the specific object The number of times the lottery is performed increases by the number of times the lottery is performed when the object is acquired once multiplied by the number of times the specific object is acquired.

In addition, the specific object may be reacquired (re-winning) in the lottery for the number of times the lottery has been held due to the acquisition of the specific object. In the lottery result display process in this case, objects obtained by the lottery for the number of times increased by re-acquiring the specific object are further displayed.
For example, if a specific object is acquired once by conducting an N-type lottery, and the specific object is acquired once again in the lottery for the number of times increased by the acquisition of the specific object, then the specific object will be acquired twice. The number of times the lottery will be held will increase according to the number of times the lottery is obtained. In the lottery result display process in this case, the winning objects in the lottery are displayed for the number of times the lottery has been performed, which is the sum of the original number and the number of times increased according to the number of acquisitions of the specific object.

As described above, in this embodiment, the number of times the lottery is held increases each time a specific object is acquired, and in the lottery result display process, the number of times the lottery is held increases according to the number of acquired (number of wins) of the specific object. Display all objects obtained by .

By making the specific object described above obtainable through a lottery, in this embodiment, it is possible to increase the player's expectations for the lottery, thereby improving the interest of the game.

In addition, in this embodiment, in addition to obtaining a specific object with a certain probability by conducting a lottery, a specific object is also given when either of the following conditions (1) or (2) is satisfied in the lottery. .
Condition (1): The number of times the same target object is obtained twice by lottery is equal to or greater than a threshold value.
Condition (2): The target object that the player already owns is obtained through the lottery, and the total value of the number of the target object the player currently owns and the number of the target object acquired in the lottery is greater than or equal to the threshold value. .

The target object in conditions (1) and (2) above is an object (excluding a specific object) specified in advance on the server 12 side among objects obtained by lottery, for example, a predetermined character or The item is applicable.

As described above, in this embodiment, when the same object (target object) is obtained by lottery more than the threshold number of times, and when the same object as the object already owned by the player is obtained by lottery. If the number of the object in possession exceeds a threshold value, a specific object will be given as compensation. As a result, even if the same object is obtained twice in the lottery, or if the same object that the player already owns is won, the player's expectations for the lottery will not be lost and will be increased. be able to.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the target object in conditions (1) and (2) above is an object that belongs to a group with a lower rarity than the highest rarity (for example, a medium rare group or a low rare group). is preferred. In this case, although there is a possibility that the player's expectations may be impaired due to duplicate acquisition of the target object, such a situation can be effectively avoided by providing the specific object.
However, the group (rarity) to which the target object belongs is not particularly limited, and may be the highest rare group or the highest rare group.

Note that a limit may be set on the number of times a specific object is given when the above-mentioned condition (1) or (2) is satisfied. For example, when performing N consecutive lottery once, condition (1) is applied. Alternatively, the number of times the specific object is given when (2) is satisfied may be limited to one time, or may be unlimited.
In addition, if a specific object is granted due to the fulfillment of condition (1) or (2), the target object obtained by lottery or the target object currently owned by the player will be attached to the grant of the specific object. It can be consumed or left alone.

Next, a processing flow related to a lottery (hereinafter referred to as a lottery flow) will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 and 11. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the lottery flow. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the flow of the lottery result display data generation process in the lottery flow.
In addition, below, we will explain a case in which an N-type lottery is conducted as a specific example, and in that case, a player requesting a lottery may have a lottery item to conduct an N-type lottery. It is assumed that
Furthermore, hereinafter, for convenience, the player who makes a lottery request will be referred to as a "requesting player."

As shown in FIG. 10, the lottery flow starts when the requesting player operates his/her own player terminal 10 to perform a lottery request operation and causes the operation reception unit 111 of the player terminal 10 to accept the lottery request operation ( S001).
In addition, in the lottery request operation, as described above, it is assumed that N consecutive lots (that is, a predetermined number of lots) are requested.

Next, the terminal-side data generation unit 114 of the player terminal 10 is caused to generate lottery request data according to the received lottery request operation (S002). The lottery request data generated at this time is data for requesting implementation of N consecutive types of lottery.

The generated lottery request data is transmitted by the terminal-side data transmitting/receiving unit 113 of the player terminal 10, and the server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212 of the server 12 receives the lottery request data via the communication network 14 (S003, S004). .

Thereafter, the terminal identifying unit 213 of the server 12 identifies the player terminal 10 that is the source of the received lottery request data, that is, the player terminal 10 owned by the requesting player (S005).
Further, the server-side data generation unit 214 of the server 12 generates lottery result display data based on the received lottery request data (S006). The lottery result display data generated at this time is data for causing the player terminal 10 to execute a process of displaying the lottery results (specifically, the winning object) when N consecutive types of lottery are conducted.

The generated lottery result display data is transmitted from the server-side data transmitting/receiving unit 212 of the server 12 to the player terminal 10 identified in step S005, and is received by the terminal-side data transmitting/receiving unit 113 of the player terminal 10. (S007, S008).

Thereafter, the display processing unit 115 of the player terminal 10 is caused to execute a lottery result display process based on the received lottery result display data, and display the lottery results when N consecutive types of lottery were conducted (S009).
Note that the lottery result display process is executed in response to the lottery request operation received in step S001, so in this embodiment, when the lottery request operation is accepted by the operation reception unit 111, the lottery result display process is displayed on the player terminal 10. Display processing will be executed.

In addition, in the lottery result display process, as described above, the display processing unit 115 of the player terminal 10 is caused to perform a display effect of displaying the winning objects object by object. As a result, each winning object is displayed on the display 108 of the player terminal 10 in the display order, and when each winning object is displayed, an effect is performed according to the number of wins for each winning object, etc. (See Figure 9).

To explain in detail step S006 of generating lottery result display data in the lottery flow, as shown in FIG. N winning objects are determined from among the candidate objects (S021). At this time, the server-side data generation unit 214 determines the winning object based on the winning probability of each candidate object.

Next, the server-side data generation unit 214 determines whether the specific object is included in the N winning objects determined in step S021 (S022). If the server-side data generation unit 214 determines that the specific object is included, the process proceeds to step S023; if the server-side data generation unit 214 determines that the specific object is not included, the process proceeds to step S024. move on.

When proceeding to step S023, that is, when the specific object is included in the winning objects, the number of times the lottery is held increases by acquiring the specific object, for example, by +N times. In this case, the server-side data generation unit 214 determines the winning object for the lottery for the increased number of times from among the candidate objects (S023).

After step S023 is completed, the process returns to step S022, and the server-side data generation unit 214 again determines whether or not the specific object is included in the winning objects in the lottery for the number of drawings increased by acquiring the specific object. (S022).

If the specific object is included again among the winning objects in the lottery for the increased number of times, the number of times the lottery is held increases further +N by reacquiring the specific object, and the server-side data generation unit 214 Winning objects in the lottery for the number of times increased by re-acquiring objects are further determined (S023).
Thereafter, each time a specific object is acquired (in other words, each time the result in step S022 is Yes), step S023 is repeated to determine the winning object in the lottery for the number of times increased by the acquisition of the specific object.

In step S024, the server-side data generation unit 214 determines whether the above-described condition (1) is satisfied, that is, whether the number of times the same target object is obtained by lottery is equal to or greater than a threshold value. To explain clearly, in step S024, it is determined whether or not the same target object is included in the winning objects determined in step S021 and step S023. If so, it is determined whether the number of acquisitions (that is, doubles) is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

If the server-side data generation unit 214 determines that the number of times the same target object has been obtained through the lottery is equal to or greater than the threshold value, the specific object is given to the requesting player (S025). In that case, the process moves to step S023, and the winning object in the lottery for the number of times increased by the provision of the specific object is determined.
After step S023 ends, the process returns to step S022 as described above, but in the subsequent flow, step S024 may be omitted without being performed again.

If it is determined in step S024 that the number of acquisitions of the same target object is less than the threshold value, the process advances to step S026, and the server-side data generation unit 214 determines whether the above-described condition (2) is met.
Specifically, the same target object as the target object that the player already owns is obtained by lottery, and the total value of the number of the target object currently owned by the player and the number of the target object obtained in the lottery is Determine whether it is greater than or equal to the threshold.
In making the above determination, the server-side data generation unit 214 refers to the object possession status of the requesting player among the player-related data recorded in the server-side recording unit 211, and determines the type of target object currently held by the requesting player. The number of possessions is compared with the type of winning object and the number of winning objects determined in step S021 and step S023, and the above determination is made based on the comparison result.

If the server-side data generation unit 214 determines that the total value of the current number of target objects in the player and the number of target objects acquired in the lottery is less than the threshold value, the process advances to step S027.

On the other hand, if the server-side data generation unit 214 determines that the above-mentioned total value is greater than or equal to the threshold value, the specific object is granted to the requesting player (S025). In that case, the process moves to step S023, and the winning objects in the lottery for the number of times increased by the provision of the specific object are determined.
After step S023 ends, the process returns to step S022 as described above, but in the subsequent flow, step S026 may be omitted without being performed again.

After completing the series of steps described above, the server-side data generation unit 214 sets the display order and display effects for each of the winning objects determined in step S021 and step S023 (S027). .

Then, the server-side data generation unit 214 generates data for displaying the winning objects determined in steps S021 and S023 in accordance with their respective display orders and effects, that is, lottery result display data (S028).
At the time when the lottery result display data is generated, step S006 of generating the lottery result display data ends.

When the lottery result display process is executed on the player terminal 10 side of the requesting player based on the lottery result display data generated in the procedure described above, the object obtained by the lottery (winning object) is displayed on the display 108. will be displayed.
In addition, when a specific object is acquired, in the lottery result display process, the winning objects for the original number of lottery operations (that is, N lottery operations) and the lottery results for the number of lottery operations that have been increased due to the acquisition of the specific object are displayed. The winning object is displayed.
Here, the acquisition of the specific object includes not only the acquisition of the specific object by lottery, but also the provision of the specific object when the above-mentioned condition (1) or (2) is met.
In other words, in the extraction result display process when condition (1) is met, the number of executions increased by the provision of a specific object due to the number of times the same target object was obtained by lottery (number of acquisitions) exceeded the threshold value. The winning objects in the lottery are displayed.
In addition, in the lottery result display process when condition (2) is met, the total value of the current number of target objects that the player already owns and the number of target objects obtained in the lottery will be equal to or greater than the threshold value. Winning objects in the lottery for the number of times the lottery has been held are displayed, which is increased by the provision of specific objects.

As described above, in this embodiment, the number of times the lottery is held can be increased by acquiring specific objects through the lottery, so it is possible to increase players' expectations for the lottery, and this effect can increase the interest of the game. It is possible to improve.

<<Summary>>
The program according to the present embodiment is a program executed by the player terminal 10, and causes the player terminal 10 to accept a lottery request operation. Furthermore, when the lottery request operation is accepted, the above program causes the player terminal 10 to execute a lottery result display process for displaying an object obtained by the lottery (a winning object). When the winning object is a specific object that increases the number of times the lottery is held, in the above-described lottery result display process, the player terminal 10 displays objects obtained by the lottery for the number of times increased by acquiring the specific object.
According to the above program, it is possible to increase players' expectations for the lottery.

The above program may be acquired by reading it from a recording medium (media) that can be read by the player terminal 10, or by receiving (downloading) it via a network such as the Internet or an intranet. It's okay.

In addition, to describe a preferred configuration for the above program, when a specific object is reacquired by a lottery for the number of times increased by acquiring a specific object, in the lottery result display process, the player terminal 10 displays the It is preferable to further display objects that can be obtained by lottery for the number of times the lottery has been performed.
In this case, the number of times the lottery is held increases again by reacquiring the specific object, so that the player's expectations for the lottery can be further increased.

Further, to describe a preferred configuration of the above program, the program causes the player terminal 10 to accept an operation requesting N consecutive drawings (N consecutive drawings), and in the drawing result display process, the player terminal 10 , a display performance is performed in which objects obtained by N consecutive types of lottery are displayed for each object. Then, when a specific object is included in the objects obtained by the N consecutive lottery, an individually set effect is performed for the specific object in the display effect described above.
In this case, the player can easily recognize the acquisition of the specific object, and the player's sense of excitement can be aroused by the presentation of the specific object.

Furthermore, to describe a more suitable configuration for the above program, the specific object may be an object that increases the number of times the lottery is performed by a number of times corresponding to the number of times the N-type lottery is performed (namely, N times). At this time, in the lottery result display process, the player terminal 10 displays the object obtained by drawing N times, the specific object, and the object obtained by drawing the number of times increased by the number of times corresponding to N times. can be done.
In this case, when a specific object is acquired in N consecutive lottery games, the number of times the lottery is performed increases by the number of times N times, so that the player's expectations for the lottery can be further increased.

In addition, to describe a more suitable configuration for the above program, the number of times N consecutive lottery operations are performed (that is, N times) may be at least two times or more. Furthermore, if the number of times the same target object is obtained through a lottery is equal to or greater than a threshold value, a specific object may be awarded. At this time, in the lottery result display process, it is possible to display on the player terminal 10 the objects obtained by the lottery for the number of times the lottery has been performed, which is increased by the provision of the specific object as the number of acquired target objects becomes equal to or greater than the threshold value.
In this case, even if the same target object is obtained twice in the lottery, the player's expectations for the lottery can be further enhanced without losing his or her expectations for the lottery.

In addition, to describe a more suitable configuration for the above program, the target objects that the player already owns are obtained by lottery, and the total number of target objects that the player currently owns and the number of target objects acquired in the lottery If the value is greater than or equal to the threshold, a specific object may be assigned. At this time, in the lottery result display process, it is possible to display objects obtained by the lottery for the number of times the lottery has been performed, which has increased due to the provision of specific objects when the total value is equal to or greater than the threshold value.
In this case, even if the same object as the target object that the player already owns is obtained in the lottery, the player's anticipation for the lottery can be further enhanced without losing his or her expectations for the lottery.

Note that in the above configuration, objects are grouped according to their rarity, and it is better if the target object belongs to a group with a rarity lower than the highest rarity.
In this case, there is a possibility that the player's expectations will be damaged due to duplicate acquisition of the target object (double), so it is more meaningful to avoid such a situation by giving a specific object. It turns out.

Further, the player terminal 10 according to the present embodiment is an information processing terminal capable of accepting operations by a player, and includes an operation reception unit 111 that accepts a lottery request operation, and a lottery request operation that is accepted by the operation reception unit 111. and a display processing unit 115 that executes lottery result display processing when the lottery result is displayed. When the winning object is a specific object, in the lottery result display process, the display processing unit 115 displays objects obtained by the lottery for the number of times the lottery has been performed, which has increased due to the acquisition of the specific object.
According to the player terminal 10 described above, it is possible to increase the player's expectations for the lottery.

Further, the server 12 according to the present embodiment is a server that can communicate with the player terminal 10, and includes a terminal specifying unit 213 that specifies the player terminal 10 that has received the lottery request operation, and a player specified by the terminal specifying unit 213.
