BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a game machine for home use or business use, and more particularly to an operator ( The present invention relates to a game device, a game display method, a game result evaluation method, and a storage medium that stores a game program, which can further increase interest in games.

2. Description of the Related Art Nowadays, game machines have come to be enjoyed comfortably by anyone regardless of age or sex due to the popularization of home-use game machines, and an arcade game as another form of game machine. The machine is also actively used by game enthusiasts and the like who want to confirm the relative level of their game skill or seek the latest game trend.

In general, a game device has input means such as a button and a joystick for inputting an operator's instruction, a storage medium such as a ROM containing a game program, a display means such as a CRT capable of displaying an image, and a voice. And a control means for executing the game program, generating an image and a sound based on an instruction input to the input means, displaying the sound on the display means, and outputting the sound to the sound output means. There is. A game program plays a central role in the game device configured as described above, and in order to support a wide variety of players from beginners to advanced players of each age group, many types of games have been developed so far. A program (hereinafter, also simply referred to as a game) has been developed and supplied.

For players playing these games, the final game result, that is, the result represented by the score, occupies a high degree of interest, but the excitement and refreshing feeling brought to the player during the progress of the game are also very high. It's fun. What causes excitement and exhilaration to the player while the game is in progress is, for example, a dramatic change in the game situation, and this specific example will be described below using a game called a "puzzle game" as an example. Explained.

In the puzzle game, a player moves or rotates left and right objects, which are successively displayed and dropped above a predetermined area on a display screen, and are sequentially placed below the object. Below, for example, when objects of the same type are lined up adjacent to each other, the lined up objects are such that the display screen is instantly erased, and there is a competition for the number of erased objects. This kind of game progresses according to a relatively simple rule, and it can be played with simple operations, so it does not look very flashy, but it is accepted by a wide range of generations as a long-life game. ing. There is also proposed a battle-type puzzle game in which two players can play by opening two windows on the screen. In such a game, the normal condition under which the original object is erased is proposed. It has also been proposed that a disturbing object that cannot be erased below appears and appears in the opponent's window to include a more competitive element.

A dramatic change in the game situation of such a puzzle game corresponds to a scene in which many objects are erased from the screen. Depending on the game, the object is not simply erased as it is, but instead of being erased as it is, a balloon bursts with a sound like a balloon burst and is erased. Has
Both visually and audibly, the player can feel great exhilaration and can be excited. Furthermore, such a dramatic change in the game situation excites the galleries around the game console.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional general games, most of the games are such that a dramatic change in the game situation is only confirmed in real time on the screen in progress of the game. In the case of such a game, neither the player of the game can be reexcited by reconfirming the dramatic change of the game situation, and the progress of the game and the operation method of the player are not enough. For galleries that are difficult to grasp,
Furthermore, I cannot enjoy the original excitement that accompanies the dramatic changes in the game situation. In addition, the player of the game sometimes gets more excited by the excitement of the gallery around the game machine, but such a synergistic effect cannot be expected sufficiently. As a conventional technique, the image being played is recorded in a storage medium,

In other words, in this game, in order to display the reproduced image, it is necessary to temporarily interrupt the game in progress, which is a problem that a player who does not want to display the reproduced image loses interest in the game. was there.

Further, in the conventional game, since the game result is evaluated by a result-oriented method such that the result of the instruction input by the player is evaluated by the score, the operation option for obtaining a good result is selected. However, there was a problem that it was relatively easy for a high-level player of the game to achieve good results, and conversely it was difficult to obtain satisfaction.

Further, in the conventional game, in the case of the battle format, an object that directly interferes with the movement of the object to be operated is inserted in the image. For example, in the puzzle game, the original object is inserted. Objects are erased.Under normal conditions, obstructing objects are displayed in the display area so that they interfere with the opponent's play. There was a problem that the feeling of continuity of the game before and after the interruption was completely lost, and the original characteristics of the game could not be fully exerted.

Here, the details of the game executed by the game device of this embodiment will be described below by taking a puzzle game as an example.

In this game, as shown in FIG.
A block set of three vertical columns is sequentially dropped in a window capable of displaying blocks of seven columns horizontally and twelve columns vertically. In this embodiment, one of the individual elements displayed in the window
Each one is called a block, and a block of blocks that are formed by falling in groups of three is called a block set. There are several types of blocks, and the player changes the order of the blocks in this vertical three-block set as shown in FIG.
It is moved laterally as shown in FIG. 2 (c) and dropped to a desired position as shown in FIG. 3 (a).

At this time, if the player desires, the block group can be dropped at high speed. Next, when three or more blocks of the same type are lined up in any of the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions when the block set is dropped and arranged, as shown in FIG. The lined blocks disappear from the window. As shown in FIG. 3 (c), the block above the row is dropped as it is at the place where it disappears and becomes blank. Depending on how the blocks disappear, the blocks may be rearranged as they fall from the top, causing new blocks to continue
Sometimes more than one line up. The blocks newly arranged as shown in FIG. 4A also disappear. As shown in FIG. 4 (b), the block on the row is dropped as it is at the place where it disappears and becomes blank.

The operation of rearranging and erasing the blocks is 3
Repeated until no more than one block is lined up. In the present embodiment, one operation in which blocks disappear will be referred to as "chain" in the following description. The operation that this block disappears twice is called "2 chains", and the operation that continues 3 times is called "3 chains". When the chain does not occur from the beginning or when the chain ends, as shown in FIG. 4C, the next set of three blocks is displayed and falls. In addition, there is a special block called special block,
This special block has the special function of erasing all the blocks of the same type as the block immediately below it that touches it from the window.

The number of columns of blocks that can be displayed in the above window is preferably 7 or more, and more preferably an odd number. When the number of columns is odd, it is advisable to drop the block set from the central number of columns.

The game device of this embodiment is a device that can be played by two players at the same time. As shown in FIG. 5, the above-mentioned window is the display screen of the monitor 28 as the play screen of the game of each player. There are two open above. The image displayed in the window being played corresponds to the real-time image described in the present invention.

Next, the operation of the game device according to this embodiment will be described.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the overall control of this game device. As shown in FIG. 6, when the power is turned on (s1), the game device first initializes the hardware (s2), and then initializes the system (s3). If there is no error before the system is initialized, the title and the like are displayed (s4), and then the game operation explanation is displayed (s6). Subsequently, the results of the games played by the past players and the ranking of the high scorers are displayed (s8), and then the demonstration screen is displayed (s10). After displaying the demonstration for a certain period of time, return to the title display (s
4). During this period (between s4 and s10), when the player inputs a game start instruction through the operation panel 20, the game loop (s12) starts.

Next, the processing of the game loop in s12 of FIG. 6 will be described with reference to FIG. During the game loop, the following events are constantly monitored until the game is over. 7 shows the frame buffer 12
4 or 126 Image drawing period (1/60
Seconds) is created according to.

When shifting to the game loop, as shown in FIG. 7, initialization processing is performed (s20), a game play event (s21) described later, and a game monitoring event (s2).
2) The process shifts to the game effect event (s23). After that, it is determined whether or not all the gameplay events have ended (s24), if all have ended, the process returns to the advertise loop (s25), and if there are unfinished events, the gameplay event (S2
Return to 1).

Next, the processing of the game play event in s21 of FIG. 7 will be described with reference to FIG. The game play event is a main process of the game that is constantly monitored during the game loop until the game is over. Note that FIG. 8 is also created according to the drawing period.

When the game loop moves to the game play event, as shown in FIG. 8, first, initialization necessary for starting the game is performed (s31), and then items necessary for the game are selected ( s32). Next, it is determined whether or not the game is over (s33). If the game is over, the game over process is performed (s34), and the game play event ends (s35). If the game is not over, various parameters set in the game are set (s36), and the process proceeds to the game process (s37). After the game processing, the processing shifts to result processing such as ranking calculation indicating the game score and class calculation indicating the skill level of the game (s38). After this result processing, the process returns to the game over determination processing (s33).

Next, the flow of the game processing of s37 is shown in FIG.
Will be described below. Note that FIG. 9 shows the overall control flow during the game play by the player.

In the game process, various initializations are performed when the game starts, and a level is selected and an accompanying event flows (P1). Next, it is determined whether or not the game is over (P2). If the game is over, a game over process is performed (P10), and the game is ended. If the game is not over, the parameters are set (P
3), the block set is displayed in the window (P4).
The player gives instructions for rotation and movement according to the displayed block group, and thus accepts instructions from the player (P5). At this time, the instruction from the player is stored as information necessary for the replay processing described later. Next, based on the player's input instruction, the rotation or movement of the block group is displayed, the block is dropped to a position on the window (P6), and then it is determined whether or not there is a block to be erased. (P7). If there is no block to erase, the process returns to the game over determination (P2), and if there is a block to erase, the block is erased (P8). As will be described later, this block erasing means that when blocks of the same type are lined up consecutively, the lined up blocks are erased from the window. It is also possible to insert an animation to rotate, and at this time, it is possible to cancel this animation by the player's instruction such as dropping the block set at high speed. High-speed dropping of the block set is performed by the player operating the operation lever, the operation button, or the direction key provided on the operation panel 20 in the direction corresponding to the downward direction on the monitor screen. After erasing the block,
The blocks that have disappeared are reduced (P9), and the process returns to the determination (P7) whether there is a block to be erased.

Next, processing of a game monitoring event that is constantly monitored during the game loop until the game is over will be described. There are three game monitoring events, one is replay monitoring processing. The second is rank recognition processing, and the other is recognition interference processing. In addition, the rank described below means a class representing a player's proficiency level in the game.

First, the replay monitoring process shown in FIG. 10 will be described. Note that FIG. 10 is also created according to the drawing period.

When the game loop shifts to the game monitoring event, as shown in FIG. 10, initialization is first performed (s41), and then it is determined whether or not the monitored game play event is game over. (S42) If the game is over, the game monitoring event ends (s4
3) If the game is not over, it is determined whether or not replay processing is in progress (s44).

If the replay process is being performed, the process returns to the game over determination process (s42). If the replay process is not being performed, it is determined whether or not monitoring has just been resumed (s4).
Go to 5). If it is not immediately after the restart, the process proceeds to the information acquisition process (s48) during the game process, and if it is immediately after the restart,
After the parameters for monitoring are re-initialized (s46) and the game information is acquired (s47), the process proceeds to the information acquisition process during the game process (s48).

The game information in s47 includes the following. Colors / states of blocks arranged in 1 and 1 of the window, colors / states of block sets falling from the top, colors of next block sets, positions of block sets falling from the top, arrangement of blocks, difficulty Degree, level,
The number of blocks erased up to now and other flags and counters necessary for the game.

As information during the game processing in s48, in addition to the above-mentioned information, operation information of the player,
There are a game play event state, which will be described later, the number of blocks and the number of chains erased by one operation, and an erase flag by a special block.

Next, the operation of the player is compared with a replay condition which is a reference for determining whether or not the operation is worth the replay (s49), and it is determined whether or not the operation is worth the replay (s50).

If it is determined that the replay is worth,
Data for replay is stored in a predetermined recording medium for the latest 10 seconds (s51), a flag indicating that the replay condition is satisfied is set (s52), and the process returns to the game over determination process (s42). When it is determined that the replay is not worth, it is determined whether or not a flag indicating that the replay condition is satisfied is set (s5
3) If the flag is not set, the process returns to the game over determination process (s42), and if the flag indicating that the replay condition is established is set, the replay start condition is compared (s54).

The replay establishment condition in s49 means, for example, that three or more chains have occurred in one block set arrangement, that a special block has been operated, or a block that has disappeared in one block set arrangement. The number has reached a certain level, etc. When the game program stored in the game ROM 16 of the game device shown in FIG. 1 is another game, for example, a fighting game, a car racing game, a baseball game, etc., the replay establishment condition is as follows. It may be the content.

In the car racing game, the car collided with a wall, jumped over a certain distance, etc., and in the fighting game, the designated technique was performed, the knockout was performed, and the technique was continuously issued. In a baseball game, it is possible that a home run was hit, cross play occurred, and the like.

The data for replay in s51 is the above-mentioned game information and information during the game processing. The replay start condition in s54 is, for example, that the replay condition establishment flag is set, the number of blocks in the window, the speed of the falling blocks, etc. Players can afford to pay attention to things other than the game, and the block group that is currently falling will not disappear no matter where it is placed.

Next, it is judged whether or not replay should be performed (s5
In 5), when the replay is not to be performed, the process returns to the game over determination process (s42). When the replay is to be performed, a replay start command is issued to set the replay condition satisfaction flag (s56), and then the game over determination process (s42). ) Return to.

The replay processing monitored by the above-described replay monitoring processing is shown in FIG. Note that FIG. 11 shows the overall flow from the start to the end of the replay.

In FIG. 11, the replay process is performed by the initialization parameter set step (Q
1), arranging the block in the initial state (Q
2), the same step (Q3) as P3 in FIG. 9, P5 in FIG.
Same step (Q4), the same step as P7 in FIG. 9 (Q5), the same step as P8 in FIG. 9 (Q6), the same step as P9 in FIG. 9 (Q7), and a step for determining whether to end the replay ( Q10), a step (Q8) of terminating the replay process, and an event closing step (Q9) of starting a game, etc. are provided. In each step from Q2 to Q8, an interrupt check is always carried out. move on. When the replay ends in Q10, proceed to Q8. Note that the same processing as P5 in FIG. 9 in Q4 is performed based on the replay information stored in P5 described above, and the movement of the block during replay and the like are controlled.

As can be seen from the above flow, in the replay process shown in FIG. 11, the same process as the block erase of the game process shown in FIG. 9 is performed, but the interrupt check is always performed and the interrupt occurs. As a result, the replay process is immediately stopped and the game process described above is started.

Here, the above-mentioned replay processing will be described by giving a specific display example. As shown in FIG. 12, it is assumed that the player is using the window W1 opened on the front screen of the monitor 28, and the other window W2 is not used for the game and the window W2 is playing. It is assumed that the demonstration is displayed at a brightness darker than the brightness of. First, the window W1 in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 12, when the player generates 7 chains by the special block (the block described as “Ma” in the figure), the demonstration display of the window W2 is interrupted and the window W1 is displayed as shown in FIG. The arrangement of the blocks before the chain generation shown in FIG. 13 is shown in FIG.
Is displayed in the window W2 as shown in FIG. Next, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3 (b), the dark screen at the time of the demonstration display changes to a screen having the same brightness as that in the game, and FIG.
As shown in (c) and FIGS. 14 (a) to (c), "R
The character string "EPLAY" is displayed and the chain made by the player is reproduced.

At this time, while the chain number is displayed in the chain and is counted up and displayed (FIG. 14 (b)), the sound of breaking the block is output, and finally the blessing message (EXELLENT !, WONDERFUL !, etc.) is issued. It is displayed (FIG. 14C). When the reproduction of the chain ends,
As shown in FIG. 14D, the background becomes dark and the screen display of the demonstration returns. In the above description, while the replay image is displayed in the window W2, the block breaking sound is output, but the same sound as that displayed in the window W1 may be output as it is, and the specific sound ( You may output by emphasizing by raising the volume of the sound (block breaking sound). In addition, another sound may be used as long as it is a sound associated with the replay image, and a sound such as a fanfare that urges attention may be output.

If a larger chain occurs during the replay, the display during the replay is interrupted and the replay of the larger chain is reproduced with priority. Also, when an image worth a new replay is displayed in the window W1 during the replay, this new replay target image is saved so that the player is relatively comfortable (the number of blocks in each column is 5 stages or less). , When the falling speed of the block set is less than a certain value).

As the display information and sound information added to the display image of the window W2 during the above replay, the game program stored in the game ROM 16 of the game device shown in FIG. 1 is another game, for example, a fighting game. In the case of, the following modes are also possible. That is,
As shown in FIG. 15, it is conceivable to add a description of the technique played by the player to the screen during replay, using characters, figures, voice, or the like. Further, the replay may be frame-advanced to change the speed, reverse-advanced to be displayed, displayed at a different view point angle, or repeatedly displayed.

The above-mentioned replay image is displayed on one of the two screens opened on the screen of the monitor 28 so as not to overlap each other, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, a window may be opened on the image being played and the image may be displayed in the window. In this case, a window may be opened from the beginning as a screen for displaying information not directly related to the game, such as a background advertisement, and the replay image may be displayed in the window representing this screen. Further, although only one monitor 28 is shown in FIG. 1, another monitor may be prepared for the second player and the replay image may be displayed on the second monitor. Also, not for the second player,
A second monitor may be prepared as a monitor dedicated to the replay, and the replay image may be displayed on the second monitor. Furthermore, in the case where the game devices shown in FIG. 1 are connected to each other via a network so that they can compete with each other, the replay image may be displayed on the monitor of the empty game device. Good.

Next, the grade recognition process shown in FIG. 16 will be described. Note that FIG. 16 is also created according to the drawing period.

As shown in FIG. 16, the game monitoring event (stage recognition processing) constantly monitored during the game loop is first initialized (s61), and then the monitored game play event is displayed. It is determined whether or not the game is over (s62). If the game is over, the adjustment of the parameter for dan rank recognition is performed (s63), and FIG.
A radar graph or the like showing the ranks (classes) as shown in 7 and the evaluation results of the player's play, which is the basis of these certifications, by a plurality of rank certification parameters is displayed (s64), and the game monitoring event ends. Yes (s6
5). If the game is not over at s62, the situation of the game play event is detected (s66), and a comparison is made with the stage authorization parameter recalculation condition (s67).

In this embodiment, five items corresponding to the rank recognition parameter in s67 are wisdom, effort, courage, skill and luck, as shown in FIG. The operation target that raises the evaluation of wisdom is, for example, that four or more blocks are erased in one chain, that two or more chains are generated by arranging one block, and the reach pattern is set to 1 and the reach is 1
It is possible that you made more than one place. The operation target that raises the evaluation of effort may be, for example, that more blocks have been erased. The operation target that raises the courage evaluation is
For example, it is possible that the block group was dropped at a high speed. The operation target for increasing the evaluation of skill may be, for example, cutting the special block, placing the special block without rotating it, or moving the special block left or right. The operation target for increasing the luck evaluation may be, for example, generating more chains, deleting all blocks from the window, or the like.

It is considered that the above wisdom and courage are applied to a new evaluation method in addition to the conventional evaluation method that considers only the result of the game, that is, to evaluate the player's instruction or operation itself. In the present embodiment, it is considered that the player's instruction itself during the game is evaluated separately from the change in the game situation that occurs incidentally as a result of the instruction, and the above-described high-speed drop operation corresponds to this. . Also,
It is considered that the instruction itself is evaluated even when the situation of the game does not change other than the change directly caused by the instruction of the operator in the game, and the above-mentioned reach eyes correspond to this.

In addition, the first consecutive game of the operator in the game
It is considered that the first instruction itself is evaluated when there is a change between the second instruction and the second instruction that is larger than the minimum change in the game situation that can occur by the first instruction.
This is because a plurality of chains are generated by arranging blocks once.

The recalculation condition for rank recognition parameter in s67 is, for example, a block falling from the top right after the block in the window is erased when the player is over the game, when the game play event is waiting for the wait. Immediately after the set is fixed to the window.

Next, if it is not necessary to recalculate the rank approval parameter in s68, the game over determination process (s6
Returning to 2), if recalculation is required, information from the gameplay event is retrieved (s69). Next, the previous thought result is loaded (s70), and the thought result and the game situation are compared (s71). Next, a comparison is made with the grade approval condition (s72). If the condition is not met, the process returns to s62, and if the condition is met,
We recalculate the rank approval parameter (s73), think about the current game situation based on the placement of gems after erasing and chaining and the information of the blocks that will fall next time,
After predicting the next ideal landing point (s74) and saving the thought result (s75), the process returns to s62.

The thinking in s70, s71, s74 and s75 will be described below. In this game, the following variables can be found for this thought. That is, 3 × 7 = from 3 ways of arrangement of block sets and 7 ways of columns that can be placed.
For each of the 21 patterns, the number of disappeared blocks, the number of chains, and the effective placement index (when waiting, putting the same color together, making the chain, etc.) in each state, and each Variables such as row height (related to verification of special block tricks, etc.), number of blocks of each color, total number (related to verification of placement of special blocks, etc.) are picked up. Thinking is based on these variables, and ranks the above 21 patterns in an appropriate order as a placement method, that is, how close to the number of blocks that can be erased or the number of chains that can be created at an ideal landing position. It is to determine whether a certain number of blocks can be erased or a chain can be created.

Here, the "ideal landing point" is CP
It is an ideal landing point determined by U's thinking routine (CPU side thinking routine when playing with one player VS CPU). "Ideal" means the position where the largest number of blocks can be erased or the position where the largest number of chains can be created by rotating (changing the arrangement) and moving the falling blocks. To do. CPU is shown in FIG.
6. In s74, the color of the blocks that have already been piled up and the color of the block that falls with the next move (or,
(Including the color of the falling blocks that fall after that)
And the above 21 patterns (or 21
Judgment is “ideal” from (× 21 = 441 patterns, or the subsequent development).

The grade approval condition in s72 is, for example, when the total number of erased blocks exceeds a predetermined value, when the player arranges the block group most appropriately, when the trick is used, Each time when the block set is dropped at high speed is evaluated, or they are comprehensively evaluated.

As described above, the CPU's thinking routine is used to evaluate the result (operation) performed by the player based on the situation judgment that is supposed to occur from now on. Therefore, whether the player's operation is good or bad is determined as the game situation. It can be scored in real time accordingly.

Next, the game effect event in s23 of FIG. 7 will be described with reference to FIG. Note that FIG. 18 is also created according to the drawing period.

As shown in FIG. 18, the game effect event, which is constantly monitored during the game loop until the game is over, is first initialized (s81), and then the monitored gameplay event is the game. It is determined whether or not it is over (s82), and if it is game over, the game effect event ends (s83). If it is not game over, it is determined whether or not replay processing is in progress ( s84). Here, if the replay is in process,
The replay process is continued (s85), and the process returns to s82. If the replay process is not in progress, the process proceeds to a determination (s86) whether a replay start command has been issued. If the replay start command has been issued, the data for replay is loaded (s87), and the process returns to s82. If the replay start command has not been issued, normal production is performed (s88) and the process returns to s82. .

Next, a description will be given of the sabotage process for the opponent player when two players simultaneously operate the game device shown in FIG. 1 to compete. The timing of this processing can be considered almost the same as in the case of the replay processing. That is, as a game monitoring event, there is opponent obstruction processing.

The opponent jamming process will be described below with reference to FIG. Note that FIG. 19 is also created according to the drawing period.

As shown in FIG. 19, the game monitoring event which is constantly monitored during the game loop until the game is over is first initialized (s91), and then the monitored game play event is over the game. Whether the game is over or not is determined (s92). If the game is over, the game monitoring event is ended (s98). If the game is not over, it is determined whether or not the opponent game is in progress (s93). . If the opponent game is not in progress, the process returns to the game over determination process (s92). If the opponent game is in progress, the process proceeds to the information acquisition process (s94) during the game process. Next, a comparison with the cognitive interference condition is performed (s9
5) If the cognitive obstruction condition is not satisfied, the process returns to the game over determination process (s92), and if the cognitive obstruction condition is satisfied, an image for reducing the cognitive ability is displayed on the opponent screen (s97), The process returns to the game over determination process (s92).

The recognition disturbing condition in s95 may be, for example, occurrence of four or more chains in one operation, operation of a special block, deletion of V-shaped block, and the like.

To weaken the cognitive ability in s97 means, for example, masking a part of the opponent's window, changing the background color of the opponent's image, and changing the background pattern of the opponent's image. Changing, changing the background brightness of the image of the opponent, remembering the image displayed in your window and playing it back as the background of the image of the opponent, operation block of the image of the opponent It is conceivable to change the color of the operation block of the image of the opponent.

According to the above embodiment, the following effect (a) is obtained.
~ (Y) can be obtained.

(A) Since the image decided to be reproduced is drawn as the reproduced image while or simultaneously drawing the real-time image, by actually displaying the drawing information on the screen, for example, during the game. The displayed excitement scenes and noteworthy scenes can be played in parallel with the real-time image display of the game currently in progress, so that the game is not interrupted by not only the game operator but also the game operator. The gallery around the game device can be excited and refreshed, and the operator can be further excited and refreshed. As a result, the operator can be excited and refreshed more than the original contents of the game, and the game is actually played in the gallery where the images that bring such excitement and exhilaration are seen. It can inspire you and make the game more attractive.

(B) Since the reproduced image is displayed on the window opened on the real-time image, the operator can easily confirm the reproduced image while continuing the game.

(C) Since the real-time image is displayed on one of the two display units and the reproduced image is displayed on the other,
For example, in a game device that is played by a plurality of operators and a separate display device is assigned to each operator, it is possible to display a reproduced image on a display device that is not used, and to display an empty display device. It can be used effectively.

(D) When a reproduced image is displayed,
Since the information associated with the reproduced image is added and displayed, for example, the technique and score of the game used in the reproduced image can be displayed as information, and the content represented in the reproduced image can be operated. Clearly communicate to people and galleries.

(E) When the game situation represented by the real-time image changes beyond a predetermined standard, the image corresponding to the real-time image is reproduced, so that the excitement degree is particularly high for the operator or the gallery. You can select and show only images with a strong refreshing feeling or images that deserve attention.

(F) Since the image to be reproduced is determined based on the instruction input by the operator, only the image intended by the operator, for example, the image desired to be displayed in the gallery can be selected and reproduced.

(G) Since the sound associated with the reproduced image can be output together with the display of the reproduced image, for example, the same sound as the sound output when the reproduced image is displayed as a real-time image is output. It can be output at the time of outputting the reproduced image, or can be output by emphasizing only a specific portion as compared with the sound at the time of the real-time image, which can make the operator and the gallery more excited and refreshed.

(H) When it is determined that the opponent's ability is weakened, an image that diminishes the opponent's cognitive ability can be generated and displayed on the screen, so that the opponent recognizes the object of the image. It's harder to do, but your opponents can continue playing with the condition they were in before they were blocked. This means that it is possible for an opponent to interfere with the opponent without losing the sense of continuity of the game, and because the opponent also has a weaker cognitive ability, depending on the operation method, it may be disturbed. It also means that it is possible to completely recover the condition when it was not there. Therefore, the original charm of the game can be fully exerted.

(I) By masking a part of the image of the opponent, the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened, so that the opponent can guess the masked image by relying only on the memory. You can do damage depending on your opponent's memory.

(J) Since the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened by changing the background color of the image of the opponent, damage depending on the ability to discriminate the object when the background color changes is given to the opponent. Can be given.

(K) Since the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened by changing the background pattern of the image of the opponent,
You can inflict damage on your opponent that depends on your ability to distinguish objects when the background pattern changes.

(L) By changing the brightness of the background of the image of the opponent, the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened.
It is possible to inflict damage on the opponent depending on the ability to discriminate the target when the brightness of the background changes.

(M) When the image stored in the recording means is reproduced as the background of the image of the opponent, the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened. Therefore, when an object similar to the object is displayed as the background. You can inflict damage on your opponent that depends on the ability to discriminate the true target of.

(N) Since the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened by deforming the operation object of the image of the opponent, damage is caused to the opponent depending on the ability to discriminate the object when the object is deformed. be able to.

(O) Operation of the image of the opponent By changing the color of the object, the opponent's cognitive ability is weakened, so that damage depending on the ability to discriminate the object when the color of the object changes is caused. Can be given to opponents.

(P) Since the game device can be applied to a puzzle game in which it is necessary to instantly recognize the type and arrangement of the objects, the opponent is obstructed without disturbing the opponent's sense of continuity in the game. From the viewpoint that it is possible, the effectiveness of the present invention can be further enhanced.

(Q) Assuming that this will happen, for example, since the evaluation is given to the actual instruction procedure input by the operator on the basis of an expected series of instruction procedures adapted to the situation in the virtual space. Since the result of the player can be evaluated by using the thinking method of the CPU that can judge the situation, it is possible to score the good or bad of the player's operation in real time according to the situation of the game.

(R) The instruction itself of the operator during the game is
Since it is possible to evaluate separately from a change in the game situation that occurs incidentally as a result of the instruction, for example, in a puzzle game, an operation of dropping a target object at high speed is an evaluation target, so that an evaluation of an operation that has not existed in the past can be performed. This makes it possible to increase the choices of operations for improving the operator's performance.

(S) Since the instruction itself can be evaluated when the situation of the game does not change other than the change directly caused by the instruction of the operator during the game, for example, in the puzzle game, making the reach eyes is itself possible. Since it becomes an evaluation target, it is possible to evaluate an operation that has not been achieved in the past, and it is possible to increase the number of operation options for improving the operator's performance.

(T) The first consecutive operation of the operator in the game
When there is a change between the second instruction and the second instruction that is larger than the minimum change in the game situation that can occur due to the first instruction, the first instruction itself can be evaluated. Therefore, for example, in a puzzle game, Since a single placement operation of an object that causes a plurality of chains is an evaluation target, it is possible to evaluate an operation that was not available in the past, and it is possible to increase the options of operations for improving the operator's performance.

(U) Since the evaluation result is represented by the class indicating the skill level of the operator, it is possible to rank not the result of the game but the manner of operation during the game. In addition, the skill level of the game that does not depend on luck can be clearly expressed.

(V) Since the evaluation result is represented by a radar graph having each of a plurality of evaluation parameters as respective graph elements, it is possible to clearly represent the balance of each skill level of the games classified by the evaluation parameter. .

(W) When a plurality of objects satisfying a predetermined condition are lined up vertically or diagonally adjacent to each other in accordance with an instruction from the operator, the display of the objects lined up satisfying the predetermined condition is erased. In the above, since the number of columns of the objects that can be arranged in the display area is 7 or more, compared to the conventional game having 6 columns or less, it is possible to easily form a chain and reduce the difficulty of the game. . Moreover, since the number of objects to be displayed, which are usually colored in color, increases, the appearance becomes more flashy and the attention of the game can be increased.

(X) When a plurality of objects of the same color are arranged adjacent to each other according to an instruction from the operator, in a game device that erases the display of the objects arranged in line, a row of objects that can be arranged in the display area. Since the number is 7 or more, it is possible to make a chain easier than a conventional game with 6 or less columns,
The difficulty level of the game can be reduced. Moreover, since the number of objects to be displayed, which are usually colored in color, increases, the appearance becomes more flashy and the attention of the game can be increased.

(Y) Since the number of columns of the object that can be arranged in the display area is odd, for example, the appearance position of the object can be set in the exact center of the display area, and the operator can move the object left and right. The operation can be made even. In addition, in a game in which the game is over when all the columns in which the objects appear and are displayed are filled up, if the objects appear just in the middle, it becomes easier for the operator to recognize the columns to be watched or to operate. To become.
