Detailed Description

The technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described in connection with the embodiments, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.

In general, a game may include multiple copies or multiple sub-games, or a large game platform may provide multiple different games, which may be categorized into different game modes according to game types, where each game mode may have the same or different duration of a single game, and a player needs to select from among the games according to his own situation. In the anti-addiction mode, the player generally wants to use the available time period of the game to maximize the benefits of the game (e.g., to complete the game for the most plays, to obtain the most rewards, to obtain satisfaction, etc.) because the available time period of the game is limited. Considering the problem that a player needs to pay a great deal of thinking cost to determine a proper game playing method in order to efficiently utilize the available game time length of the player, in order to simplify the allocation of the available game time length of the player and promote the game benefits and the game experience of the player which can be obtained in the limited game time length, the embodiment of the application provides a control method, a device and electronic equipment of the game time, and the technology can recommend a reasonable game strategy according to the available game time length of the player so as to realize the maximization of the game benefits and the game experience of a user. The technology can be applied to terminal equipment such as mobile phones, computers and tablets capable of realizing man-machine interaction, and is particularly suitable for scenes of mobile phone games or computer games.

The method for controlling game time in one embodiment of the present disclosure may be executed on a local terminal device or a server. When the control method of the game time runs on the server, the method can be realized and executed based on a cloud interaction system, wherein the cloud interaction system comprises the server and the client device.

In an alternative embodiment, various cloud applications may be run under the cloud interaction system, for example: and (5) cloud game. Taking cloud game as an example, cloud game refers to a game mode based on cloud computing. In the cloud game operation mode, the game program operation main body and the game picture presentation main body are separated, the storage and operation of the game time control method are completed on the cloud game server, and the client device is used for receiving and sending data and presenting the game pictures, for example, the client device can be a display device with a data transmission function close to a user side, such as a mobile terminal, a television, a computer, a palm computer and the like; but the cloud game server which performs information processing is a cloud. When playing the game, the player operates the client device to send an operation instruction to the cloud game server, the cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instruction, codes and compresses data such as game pictures and the like, returns the data to the client device through a network, and finally decodes the data through the client device and outputs the game pictures.

In an alternative embodiment, taking a game as an example, the local terminal device stores a game program and is used to present a game screen. The local terminal device is used for interacting with the player through the graphical user interface, namely, conventionally downloading and installing the game program through the electronic device and running. The manner in which the local terminal device provides the graphical user interface to the player may include a variety of ways, for example, it may be rendered for display on a display screen of the terminal, or provided to the player by holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device may include a display screen for presenting a graphical user interface including game visuals, and a processor for running the game, generating the graphical user interface, and controlling the display of the graphical user interface on the display screen.

In a possible implementation manner, the embodiment of the application provides a method for controlling game time, and a graphical user interface is provided through a terminal device, wherein the terminal device can be the aforementioned local terminal device or the aforementioned client device in the cloud interaction system.

In order to facilitate understanding of the present embodiment, a method for controlling game time disclosed in the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail.

Referring to fig. 1, a flow chart of a method for controlling game time is shown, and a graphical user interface is provided through a terminal device; the method comprises the following steps:

step S102, displaying a preset first game duration and a first game strategy determined based on the first game duration on a graphical user interface, wherein the first game strategy comprises optional game modes of a terminal device user in the first game duration, the number of games which can be played in the corresponding game modes and/or each game duration.

Taking terminal equipment as an example, a player (i.e. a terminal equipment user) can play a game through the terminal equipment, the terminal equipment can firstly acquire preset available game time length (i.e. first game time length) of the player, then determine a corresponding game strategy (i.e. first game strategy) based on the game time length, and then display the first game time length and the first game strategy on a graphical user interface of the game, wherein the first game strategy comprises a game mode selectable by the player in the first game time length, and the number of games and/or each time length of games which can be played in the corresponding game mode.

In order to facilitate the operation, a corresponding trigger event (recorded as a first trigger event) may also be set for the acquisition of the first game duration, and the terminal device may be triggered to acquire the first game duration by the occurrence of the first trigger event. As one possible implementation, the first trigger event may be a first operation on a recommendation control displayed by the graphical user interface. For example, the terminal device is a touch terminal (such as a mobile phone, a tablet, etc.), and the first operation may be an operation that a player presses the recommendation control by a finger; for another example, the terminal device is a non-touch terminal (such as a computer, etc.), and the first operation may be an operation of clicking a recommendation control by a player through a mouse; the first operation may be specifically determined according to actual needs, which is not limited. Taking a terminal device as an example, a graphical user interface of a game is provided through the computer, and referring to a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface shown in fig. 2, a recommendation control (represented by a circular icon with a "recommendation" word in fig. 2) is displayed in the graphical user interface, and the first operation is an operation that a player clicks the recommendation control through a left button of a mouse.

Step S104, in response to the change of the first game duration to the second game duration, the first game strategy displayed on the graphical user interface is controlled to be updated to display a second game strategy determined based on the second game duration, wherein the second game strategy comprises selectable game modes of the terminal equipment user in the second game duration, the number of games which can be played in the corresponding game modes and/or each time duration; wherein the second game duration is less than the first game duration.

The second game duration may be a duration obtained after the user modifies the first game duration, or may be a game duration updated when a game mode ends according to the user playing the game based on the first game policy, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

According to the control method for the game time, the terminal device displays the preset first game time length and the first game strategy determined based on the first game time length on the graphical user interface, and when the first game time length is changed to the second game time length smaller than the first game time length, the terminal device controls the first game strategy displayed on the graphical user interface to be updated to display the second game strategy determined based on the second game time length. Based on the mode of updating the game strategy by the game time length, a user can conveniently and intuitively know the preferred game strategy under the current game time length, the difficulty of selecting the current more suitable game from a plurality of games is reduced, the excessive time consumption caused by selecting the game is also reduced, and the mode of updating and displaying the game strategy can better guide the user to efficiently utilize the available game time length, so that the game benefit is maximized, and the game experience of the user is further improved.

It is contemplated that the display of the game duration may be implemented as a separate function in the game, and as a possible implementation, a timing control may be separately provided on the graphical user interface, and the first game duration and the second game duration may be displayed through the timing control. The displaying the preset first game duration on the gui in step S102 may further include: and responding to the game login event of the terminal equipment, and displaying a first game duration on a graphical user interface. For example, in fig. 3, a player (i.e., a user of a terminal device) logs in to a game by inputting a game account number and an account number password in a game login interface, that is, when a game login event occurs in the terminal device, the terminal device responds to the game login event and displays a timing control (a window control in fig. 3) in the upper left corner of the graphical user interface of the game, and the time control displays the currently available game duration (i.e., the first game duration, specifically 3 hours in fig. 3) of the player.

For the game anti-addiction mode, the first game duration may specifically be a limited game duration corresponding to an anti-addiction policy, where the limited game duration corresponding to the anti-addiction policy is generally determined based on identity information of a user of the terminal device, and thus, a manner in which the terminal device obtains the first game duration may include: after a terminal equipment user logs in a game, acquiring identity information of the terminal equipment user; if the identity information meets the applicable conditions of the game anti-addiction mode, starting the game anti-addiction mode and determining an anti-addiction strategy corresponding to the terminal equipment user; and then obtaining the limited game time length corresponding to the anti-addiction strategy, and determining the limited game time length as a first game time length.

For example, after a player (i.e., a terminal device user) logs in to a game, the terminal device may obtain identity information of the user logging in to the game; the identity information can comprise the region, age and the like; if the region where the player is located is the applicable region of the game anti-addiction mode and the player age is the applicable age of the game anti-addiction mode (for example, less than 18 years old), starting the game anti-addiction mode and determining an anti-addiction strategy corresponding to the player, namely, the total limit game duration of the player is 3 hours on the same day; and then obtaining the remaining limit game duration (less than or equal to 3 hours) of the player on the same day, and determining the remaining limit game duration as the first game duration.

For the normal mode (i.e. the case where the anti-addiction mode is not activated), the first game duration may specifically be a game duration set by the user of the terminal device. For example, the user wants to spend about three hours of idle time by playing the game, and thus the user may set a game duration of three hours as the first game duration before playing the game. The method for obtaining the first game duration by the terminal equipment may include: the method comprises the steps of obtaining a game duration preset by a terminal device user, and determining the game duration as a first game duration.

By adopting one of the two modes for acquiring the first game time length, the applicability of the control method of the game time to different scenes can be improved.

In addition, the second game duration may specifically be a game duration set by a user of the terminal device, for example, the user wants to spend about one hour of idle time by playing a game, and the method for controlling the game time may further include the following operation modes: responding to the triggering operation acted on the timing control, providing a second game duration setting interface on the graphical user interface, and changing the first game duration into the second game duration based on the second game duration information received by the second game duration setting interface. The triggering operation on the timing control is similar to the first operation described above, and will not be described again. Taking a terminal device as an example of a computer, a graphical user interface of a game is provided through the computer, taking fig. 3 and fig. 4 as examples, a player clicks a timing control (a window control in fig. 3) through a left button of a mouse, the computer responds to the operation and then displays a second game duration setting interface (a time duration input window in fig. 4) on the graphical user interface, and the player can set the second game duration in a mode of inputting a time value into the window, wherein the player sets the second game duration to be 1 hour in fig. 4. The setting method of the second game duration can adopt other operation modes besides the operation mode of inputting the time value, such as selecting one time value from a plurality of preset selectable time values, and specifically can be determined by itself according to actual needs, which is not limited.

The method for controlling the game time may further include the following operation modes, considering that the player may start the game corresponding to the next game mode after the game corresponding to the previous game mode is finished in the actual game process: and in response to an ending event of the game played by the terminal equipment user based on the first game strategy, updating the first game duration to be the second game duration according to the consumed duration of the game.

For convenience of description, the above-described game modes may be defined to include a ranking mode, an entertainment mode, a leisure mode, a stand-alone mode, a multi-machine mode, and the like; each game mode comprises one or more games, but the types of the game modes and the number of the games contained in each game mode can be determined according to actual needs, and the method is not limited to the above. Taking fig. 5 as an example, in the anti-addiction mode, after a player (i.e., a user of the terminal device) logs in to the game, the terminal device obtains a limited game duration (i.e., the first game duration) corresponding to the anti-addiction policy for 3 hours and displays the limited game duration in a graphical user interface in a word form of "3 hours", determines a corresponding game policy (i.e., the first game policy) based on the game duration, wherein the three game modes (i.e., a ranking mode, an entertainment mode and a leisure mode) selectable by the player in the game duration and the number of plays and each play duration of the game that can be played in the corresponding game mode are respectively represented in the graphical user interface in a form of a floating word (in fig. 5, a word form of "ranking (20 minutes/play): 6 plays," entertainment (10 minutes/play): 3 plays "word and a word form of" leisure (5 minutes/play): 6 plays "). In addition, the display manner of the first game policy may be determined according to the actual situation, for example, the first game policy is displayed in the form of an icon in the graphical user interface, a floating window including the first game policy is displayed in the graphical user interface, and the embodiment of the application is not limited thereto.

Based on the control method of the game time, considering that the respective play duration of the game ticket corresponding to the different game modes may be different, the step of displaying, on the graphical user interface, the first game policy determined based on the first game duration may include: obtaining a game mode corresponding to the game and average game duration of each game in the game mode, and displaying a first game strategy on a graphical user interface based on the average game duration and the first game duration of each game in the game mode. Similarly, the step of displaying the second game policy determined based on the second game duration on the graphical user interface may include: and acquiring a game mode corresponding to the game and an average game duration in the game mode, and displaying a second game strategy on the graphical user interface based on the average game duration and the second game duration of each game in the game mode.

The determination manner of the average game duration may be one of the following: (1) Determining the average game duration of the terminal equipment user corresponding to each game according to the game history record of the terminal equipment user; (2) Determining the average game duration of each game according to the game histories of different users in a set time period; (3) Determining the average game duration of each game according to the game histories of a set number of users matched with the age and/or the game qualification degree of the terminal equipment users; the game qualification degree may be determined according to the online time length of the game and/or the time length from the first registration time to the current time in the game history record, and typically, the game qualification degree is positively related to the online time length of the game or the time length from the first registration time to the current time, for example: the longer the online time length of the game is, the higher the game qualification degree is, the better the proficiency of the game is, and the shorter the average game time length of each corresponding game is. In a specific application, the determination manner of the average game duration may be selected according to the difficulty level of the game, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Because the first game duration and the second game duration are both the game durations which can be controlled by the user at different moments, the user plays the game and actually consumes the game duration, so that the first game duration or the second game duration is recorded as the duration to be consumed by the game, and the game strategy corresponding to the duration to be consumed is the first game strategy or the second game strategy for convenience of description. Specifically, after obtaining a time length to be consumed by a game, a game mode corresponding to the game and an average game time length of each game in the game mode, the terminal equipment calculates a candidate time length set corresponding to each game mode in a game strategy corresponding to the time length to be consumed by the game according to the average game time length of each game in the game mode, wherein the candidate time lengths in the candidate time length sets are integer multiples of the average game time length of each game in the corresponding game mode; for each game mode, determining a corresponding recommended duration (namely, the playable duration in the game mode) from a candidate duration set, wherein the difference between the duration to be consumed for the game and the total recommended duration (namely, the sum of the recommended durations corresponding to all the game modes in the game play information) is within a preset duration range (such as within 0-3 minutes). After determining the recommended duration of all the game modes in the game policy corresponding to the duration to be consumed, the terminal device may further calculate, for the same game mode, the recommended game play number corresponding to the game mode (i.e., the play number of the games that can be played in the game mode) according to the following formula: n=t/T, where T represents a recommended game duration corresponding to the game mode, T represents an average game duration of each game in the game mode, and n represents a recommended game play number corresponding to the game mode.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, the time length to be consumed by the player is 3 hours, the average time length of each game in the arrangement mode is 20 minutes, the average time length of each game in the entertainment mode is 10 minutes, the average time length of each game in the leisure mode is 5 minutes, and after the time length to be consumed by the game and the average time length of each game in the corresponding game mode are obtained, the terminal device determines the recommended time length and the recommended game number of each game in the three game modes according to the time length to be consumed by the game and the average time length of each game in the corresponding game mode, and displays the recommended time length and the recommended game number in the form of suspension characters in the graphical user interface.

By adopting the operation mode, the average game duration of each game under different game modes is considered when the game strategy is determined, so that the content of the game strategy can be more reasonable.

On the basis of the method for controlling the game time, in order to further improve the intuitiveness of the game policy display, displaying the first game policy determined based on the first game duration on the graphical user interface may include: generating a plurality of first recommended content based on a first game strategy determined by a first game duration; wherein each first recommended content comprises a recommended duration and/or recommended number of plays in a play mode; displaying a recommendation window comprising a plurality of first recommendation information areas on the graphical user interface; the first recommendation information areas are in one-to-one correspondence with the first recommendation contents. Similarly, the step of displaying the second game policy determined based on the second game duration on the graphical user interface may include: generating a plurality of second recommended content based on a second game policy determined by a second game duration; wherein each second recommended content comprises a recommended duration and/or recommended number of plays in a play mode; displaying a recommendation window comprising a plurality of second recommendation information areas on the graphical user interface; the second recommended information areas are in one-to-one correspondence with the second recommended contents. For example, fig. 6, after determining a game policy corresponding to a to-be-consumed game duration (i.e., the first game policy or the second game policy), the terminal device generates a plurality of recommended contents (in fig. 6, a recommended duration and a recommended number of plays of a game corresponding to each of the ranking mode, the entertainment mode, and the leisure mode) based on the game policy, and displays a recommended window on the graphical user interface, where the recommended window includes three recommended information areas (i.e., three rectangular areas in fig. 6) sequentially set from left to right, and the recommended contents corresponding to different game modes are respectively displayed in the corresponding recommended information areas. By adopting the operation mode for displaying the game strategy through the recommendation window, the user can conveniently and intuitively distinguish the content corresponding to different game modes from the game strategy, so that the intuitiveness of game strategy recommendation is improved.

Based on the control method of the game time, considering that the preference degrees of the users on different game modes are different, the first game policy determined based on the first game duration may include: determining game preference information of the terminal equipment user based on game history information corresponding to different game modes in a game history record of the terminal equipment user; wherein the game history information includes at least one of: the number of game cumulative plays, the game cumulative duration, and the game frequency; and determining a first game strategy based on the first game duration, the average game duration of each game respectively corresponding to the plurality of game modes and the game preference information. Similarly, determining the second game policy based on the second game duration may include: and determining the second game strategy based on the second game duration, the average game duration of each game respectively corresponding to a plurality of game modes and the game preference information of the terminal equipment user.

Specifically, for example, after the terminal device obtains the duration to be consumed (i.e., the first game duration or the second game duration) of a certain player (i.e., the terminal device user) and the average game duration of each game corresponding to each of the plurality of game modes, the terminal device may obtain a game history record of the player within the last 30 days, where the game history record includes the number of game cumulative plays corresponding to the ranking mode, the entertainment mode and the leisure mode respectively; comparing the game cumulative numbers corresponding to the three game modes respectively, and determining the comparison result as game preference information of the player; and then determining a game strategy (namely the first game strategy or the second game strategy) corresponding to the time length to be consumed of the game based on the time length to be consumed of the game, the average game time length of each game respectively corresponding to a plurality of game modes and the game preference information, and displaying the game strategy in a graphical user interface of the game. For example, fig. 5, after determining that the game policy includes three game modes selectable by the player within the time to be consumed of the game, and the number of recommended game plays and the time length of each game play corresponding to each game mode, the terminal device displays the game policy in a form of suspended text in a graphical user interface of the game; in the game policy determination, the terminal device may determine that the number of recommended game plays corresponding to the ranking mode is greater than the number of recommended game plays corresponding to the entertainment mode or the leisure mode if the number of game plays corresponding to the ranking mode in the game preference information of the player is far greater than the number of game plays corresponding to each of the entertainment mode and the leisure mode.

By adopting the operation mode, the preference degree of the user for different game modes is considered when the game strategy is determined, so that the content of the game strategy is more in line with the personalized preference of the user.

Based on the control method of the game time, aiming at the situation that the game strategy recommended by the terminal equipment deviates greatly from the current game wish of the user, the control method of the game time can further comprise the following operation modes: responding to a modification operation of the number of plays and/or the duration of each play of the game corresponding to the first game strategy, and updating the first game strategy according to the modification operation; or, in response to a modification operation for the number of plays and/or the duration of each play of the game corresponding to the second game policy, updating the second game policy according to the modification operation.

Wherein, the modifying operation may include: the player directly modifies the target content in the display area (such as the area where the recommended window is located, the recommended information area and the like) of the game strategy, wherein the display area of the game strategy is always in an editable state; or, the player performs a second operation on the display area of the game strategy in the graphical user interface to trigger the terminal device to set the area to be in an editable state, and then modifies the target content in the area, wherein the state of the display area of the game strategy before the second operation is started and the state of the display area of the game strategy after the modification operation is completed are both in an uneditable state. The second operation may be an operation of pressing the display area of the game policy in the gui by a finger, an operation of clicking the display area of the game policy in the gui by a mouse, or the like, and specifically may be determined by itself according to actual needs, which is not limited thereto.

For example, in fig. 5 and fig. 7, in fig. 5, the duration to be consumed (i.e., the first game duration or the second game duration) of the game by the player (i.e., the user of the terminal device) is 3 hours, and the game strategy corresponding to the 3 hours is displayed in the form of floating text in the gui, where the game strategy includes three game modes (i.e., a ranking mode, an entertainment mode, and a leisure mode) and the number of plays and each play duration of the game corresponding to each of the three game modes are respectively "ranked (20 minutes/play): 6 "words," entertainment (10 minutes/office): 3 office "typeface and" leisure (5 minutes/office): 6-game word indicates that if a player currently wants to play more game entertainment modes and play fewer game ranking modes, the player can double-click the area where the floating text is located through a mouse, the terminal device can set the area to an editable state after responding to the operation, then the player can directly modify the number of games corresponding to each of the entertainment modes and the ranking modes in the game strategy, the terminal device responds to the modification operation and replaces the game strategy before modification by the modified game strategy so as to realize the update of the game strategy, and the updated game strategy is displayed in a graphical user interface in the form of the floating text, and the updated game strategy is specifically shown as 'ranking (20 minutes/game)' shown in fig. 7: 4 "words," entertainment (10 minutes/office): 7 office "typeface and" leisure (5 minutes/office): 6 office "typeface. By adopting the operation mode, the user can automatically adjust the display content of the game strategy according to the actual requirement, the operation is more flexible, and the game strategy is more in line with the current game wish of the user.

In the practical application process, in order to further enhance the game experience of the user, the above-mentioned method for controlling the game time may further include the following operation modes: executing a target game in response to an opening operation for a target game corresponding to a target game mode in a game strategy (i.e., the first game strategy or the second game strategy); responding to game statistics information of a target game mode to reach recommended parameters of a game corresponding to the target game mode in the game strategy, prompting a user to perform game mode switching operation so as to enable the user to perform a game corresponding to the next game mode of the target game mode; the statistical information may include actual time consumption and actual number of plays of the game corresponding to the target game mode; the recommended parameters may include: a recommended duration and/or a recommended number of bureaus.

For example, in fig. 6 and fig. 8, in the recommended window shown in fig. 6, the game policy includes a recommended game duration and a recommended number of plays corresponding to the ranking mode, the user opens the game corresponding to the ranking mode, the terminal device executes the game and listens for the actual time consumption of the game corresponding to the ranking mode after responding to the opening operation, if it is monitored that the actual time consumption of the game reaches 120 minutes, the terminal device updates the recommended game duration of the game corresponding to the ranking mode in the game policy to 0 minutes and adds a deletion line (as shown in fig. 8), and simultaneously updates the recommended number of plays corresponding to the ranking mode in the game policy to 0 plays and adds a deletion line (as shown in fig. 8), so as to prompt the user to perform a game mode switching operation, so that the user performs the game corresponding to the entertainment mode or the leisure mode.

On the basis of the control method of the game time, in order to further improve the recommendation efficiency of the game strategy, the method can also adopt the following operation modes: responding to the ending of a single game of a game corresponding to a target game mode, and acquiring the actual time consumption of the single game; and comparing the actual time consumption of the single game with the average time length of each game in the target game mode, and updating game play information according to the comparison result.

Specifically, after a single game of a game corresponding to a target game mode is finished, the terminal equipment acquires actual time consumption of the single game, calculates a difference value between the average time length of each game in the target game mode and the actual time consumption of the single game, and judges whether the difference value is within a preset range (such as 0-2 minutes); if yes (namely, the difference value is within the preset range), updating a game strategy according to the average duration of each game in the target game mode; if not (i.e. the difference is not within the preset range), the corresponding game strategy is redetermined according to the actual time consumption of the single game. Taking fig. 5 as an example, the target game mode is a ranking mode, and the average duration of each game in the ranking mode is 20 minutes; if the terminal device obtains that the actual time spent by the game corresponding to the ranking mode of the last game of the player is 19 minutes, the terminal device calculates that the difference between 20 minutes and the 19 minutes is 1 minute and determines that the difference is within 0-2 minutes, and then the terminal device directly ranks (20 minutes/game) in fig. 5: the 6 "typeface updates to" rank (20 minutes/office): 5 office "; if the terminal device obtains that the actual time spent by the player in the game corresponding to the ranking mode is 14 minutes, the terminal device calculates that the difference between 20 minutes and the 14 minutes is 6 minutes and judges that the difference is not within 0-2 minutes, and then the game strategy is redetermined according to the 14 minutes (because the player can play the game corresponding to the leisure mode in 6 minutes). By the operation mode, the terminal equipment can recalculate the game strategy only when the average time length of each game in the target game mode is too great with the actual time consumption of the game corresponding to the target game mode, so that the data calculation amount of the terminal equipment is greatly reduced, and the recommendation efficiency of the game strategy is further improved.
