(1) First Embodiment (1-1) Configuration of Game System Hereinafter, a game system 1 will be described as an embodiment of an information processing system.

FIG. 1 shows a system configuration example of a game system 1 according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 1 includes user terminals 10a, 10b, 10c,. Each user terminal 10a, 10b, 10c can access the game server 20 through a communication network NW such as the Internet. The game server 20 is an example of an information processing device.
Each of the user terminals 10a, 10b, 10c,... Is a terminal operated by an individual user. For example, a feature phone, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a personal computer, a television receiver (two-way communication function) It includes so-called multi-function smart TVs), and communication terminals such as portable game machines with communication functions. In the following description, when referring to the user terminals 10a, 10b, 10c,.

The game server 20 is a server that executes a game. The game server 20 includes image data that can be interpreted by a web browser (for example, image data described in a format such as HTML or XML. In the embodiment of the present invention, HTML data will be described as an example). A program that can be created is implemented. The image data is an example of output data.
The user terminal 10 includes a web browser that interprets and displays HTML data provided by the game server 20, and requests based on user operations on the web page by the user terminal 10 via the network. The game processing is executed by receiving the processing result by the game server 20.
The communication network NW is an information communication network configured by, for example, the Internet, a WAN (Wide Area Network), a LAN (Local Area Network), a dedicated line, or a combination thereof.

(1-2) Configuration of User Terminal The user terminal 10 will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, the user terminal 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 12, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 13, an operation input unit 15, a display unit 16, a communication interface unit 17, A storage 18 is provided, and a bus 19 for transmitting control signals or data signals between the respective units is provided.

  The CPU 11 reads out programs and data stored in the ROM 12 and controls the overall operation in the user terminal 10 such as control signals with each unit in the user terminal 10 and timing processing of data signals. The CPU 11 also reads out the program stored in the storage 18 and various data necessary for executing the program, expands it in the RAM 13, and performs various processes such as data input / output processing, arithmetic processing, and determination processing associated with the execution of the program. I do. The RAM 13 temporarily stores data for arithmetic processing, determination processing, and the like by the CPU 11.

  For example, the CPU 11 loads a web browser stored in the storage 18 into the RAM 13 and executes it. And CPU11 is based on designation | designated of URL (Uniform Resource Locator) input by a user by the operation input part 15 grade | etc., Via the communication interface part 17, the data for displaying a web page from the game server 20, ie, Data of an object such as an HTML (HyperText Markup Language) document and an image associated with the document (hereinafter collectively referred to as “HTML data” as appropriate) is acquired via the communication interface unit 17 and is then used as a web browser. To interpret the HTML data. Various plug-ins for extending the browser function of the web browser may be mounted on the user terminal 10. An example of such a plug-in is a flash player by Adobe Systems Inc. in the United States. Alternatively, the HTML data in this embodiment may be in the HTML5 format having a moving image and audio playback function.

The web browser performs communication with the game server 20 in accordance with HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol). When a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) on a web page or an operation target (for example, a software button (hereinafter simply referred to as “button”)) is selected by the user operating the operation input unit 15, the web browser. In order to update the web page, an HTTP request including the selection result is transmitted to the game server 20. The web browser acquires HTML data from the game server 20 as an HTTP response, interprets it, and displays an image of the web page on the display unit 16.
In the present embodiment, HTML data is an example of image data.

  The display unit 16 is a display device such as an LCD (Liquid Cristal Display) or an organic EL (Electro Luminescence) display. When an LCD (Liquid Cristal Display) monitor including thin film transistors arranged in pixel units in a matrix is applied, the display unit 16 displays the image of the web page on the display screen 16a by driving the thin film transistors.

It includes an interface circuit for recognizing a pressing (operation) input and outputting it to the CPU 11.
When the user terminal 10 is a touch panel input type user terminal, the operation input unit 15 mainly accepts touch panel type input by touching the display screen with a fingertip or a pen.

  The storage 18 is a storage device configured by, for example, a flash memory or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive).

(1-3) Configuration of Game Server The configuration of the game server 20 will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, the game server 20 includes a CPU 21, a ROM 22, a RAM 23, a communication interface unit 24, and a storage 25, and a bus 26 is provided for transmitting control signals or data signals between the units. ing. The game server 20 can have the same configuration as a general-purpose network server in terms of hardware.

  The CPU 21 reads out the programs and data stored in the ROM 22 and controls the overall operation in the game server 20 such as control signals for each part in the game server 20 and data signal timing processing. The CPU 21 also reads out a program stored in the storage 25 and various data necessary for executing the program, expands it in the RAM 23, and performs various processes such as data input / output processing, arithmetic processing, and determination processing associated with the execution of the program. I do. The RAM 23 temporarily stores data for arithmetic processing, determination processing, and the like by the CPU 21.

  For example, the storage 25 stores a program for providing a web service by performing communication according to HTTP with a web browser of the user terminal 10 as a client. The CPU 21 expands the program stored in the storage 25 on the RAM 23 and executes the program. Along with the execution of the program, the CPU 21 acquires an HTTP request from the user terminal 10 via the communication interface unit 24, executes a process according to the HTTP request, and uses the HTML data including the execution result as an HTTP response. Return to 10.

  The storage 25 is an information recording device configured by, for example, a flash memory or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), and stores a data table group 70 (described later) in addition to the above-described program. The data table group 70 includes a card data table, an evolutionary synthesis data table, a possessed card data table, and a reservation data table. Each data table in the storage 25 is appropriately accessed from the CPU 21 for reading and writing data.

(1-4) Reservation in Evolutionary Synthesis of Cards in Game of This Embodiment A game executed in the game system 1 of this embodiment is a game executed by a user using a card as an object. In this game, for example, a user searches for an area on the game to acquire a card or an item, or a user battles against another user or NPC (Non-Player Character) using a card possessed by the user.
In the game of the present embodiment, card evolution synthesis processing (hereinafter simply referred to as “evolution synthesis” as appropriate) is processing for evolving a card possessed by a user when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The evolution synthesis of the card is a process of changing the card ID as described later in the example of the present embodiment, but may be a process of changing at least a part of card data (described later) corresponding to the card. In this case, the change target of the card data is not particularly limited, but for example, card parameters such as a card name, a card image, and rarity. Card evolution synthesis is an example of a process for changing an object and a change process for changing object information.
To execute evolutionary synthesis, the user bases the card he wants to evolve (that is, the card that is the target of the card data change process) from among the cards he owns (hereinafter referred to as “owned card” where appropriate). Select a card. The card selected as the base card is an example of the selected object.
In evolutionary synthesis, for each base card, a combination condition of a plurality of cards (referred to as “reference cards”) necessary to evolve the base card is determined. When evolutionary synthesis is performed, the reference card used for evolutionary synthesis disappears from the user's possession card.
In the present embodiment, the base card, the reference card, and the possession card are examples of the base object, the reference object, and the possession object, respectively.
In the game of the present embodiment, the fact that the user possesses a plurality of reference cards that are combination conditions corresponding to the card selected as the base card by the user is a condition for changing the selected card (change condition) Example).

In the game of the present embodiment, for example, there are a normal synthesis process and a sale process as an example of a process in which the user loses his / her possession card. In order to execute the normal compositing process, the user selects a base card as a card to be grown from his / her possessed cards. In the normal combining process, the reference card combination condition may not be determined for each base card, and the user can appropriately select the reference card from the possessed cards. When the normal synthesis process is executed, the reference card disappears from the user's possessed card instead of the card parameter of the base card changing (for example, the card level and skill level increase).
In the selling process, a card selected from the user's possessed card (for example, a card that the user does not need) is sold instead of the user obtaining a selling price (for example, a point on the game) corresponding to the card. Card disappears from the user's possession card.

In the game of the present embodiment, consider a case where the user wants to evolve a desired card by evolutionary synthesis, but the user does not possess some or all of the reference cards necessary to evolve the card. In this case, it is necessary to wait for the evolution synthesis of a desired card until a new card (that is, the remaining reference card) for satisfying the reference card combination condition is available to the user. However, there are cases where the user accidentally loses the base card or a part of the reference card possessed in order to evolve the base card (for example, the above-described sale processing or normal synthesis). In particular, when there are many reference cards required to establish the combination conditions for evolutionary synthesis, or when the combination conditions differ for each base card, the user must remember the combination conditions for evolutionary synthesis. It is difficult, and there is a high possibility that the base card and the reference card will be accidentally lost.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the user can reserve at least one of the base card and a plurality of reference cards necessary for evolving the base card among the user's possessed cards for evolutionary synthesis. Like that. A card reserved for evolutionary synthesis is referred to as a “reserved card” in the following description. A reserved card is an example of a restricted object. For a reserved card, execution of processing other than evolutionary synthesis (for example, the above-described normal synthesis and sale processing described above) to be reserved is restricted.

Card reservation in evolutionary synthesis will be specifically described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram for conceptually explaining card reservation in evolutionary synthesis.
In FIG. 4, consider a case where a user possesses cards Q, A, and C and wants to evolve card Q. Here, it is assumed that the user possesses all of the plurality of reference cards A, B, and C, which are combination conditions corresponding to the card Q as conditions for changing the card Q (change conditions). Since the user does not possess the card B at the present time, the evolution synthesis cannot be performed on the card Q. In this case, the user can use the card Q, A, and C for evolution synthesis of the card Q so that the card Q, A, and C possessed by the user are not mistakenly used for processing other than the evolution synthesis of the card Q. Cards Q, A, and C are reserved. The reserved cards Q, A, and C are restricted from being used for processes other than the evolution synthesis of the card Q (for example, the above-described normal synthesis and sale).

Note that “restricted to be used for processing other than evolutionary synthesis” for reserved cards is not limited to the prohibition of processing other than intended evolutionary synthesis using reserved cards. Processing other than the target evolutionary synthesis using a completed card can be executed, but the procedure for executing the processing may be made difficult, or the procedure for executing the processing may be complicated. If the “process other than evolutionary synthesis” for the reserved card is a process for erasing the reserved card from the user's possession card (that is, a process for making the reserved card non-possession), the process is limited. It is particularly preferred.
Moreover, in the example shown in FIG. 4, although illustrated about the case where all the base cards Q and the reference cards A and C possessed by the user are reserved cards, the present invention is not limited to this case. The user may select the possession card as a reserved card as appropriate.

(1-5) Configuration of Data Table Next, a card data table, an evolutionary synthesis data table, a possessed card data table, and a reservation data table stored in the storage 25 of the game server 20 will be described with reference to FIGS. Will be described in order. The storage 25 of the game server 20 is an example of a storage device.

(I) Card Data Table The card data table records card data used in the game of the present embodiment. FIG. 5 shows a configuration example of the card data table. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the card name, card image, and card parameter data are included for each card ID. The card ID is an example of information indicating an object.
The card name is a character string indicating the name of the character displayed on the card. The card image is an image of a character displayed on the card. The card parameter is composed of data of rarity, attribute, cost, skill, sale price, attack power, defense power, and limited flag.
The rarity is an index indicating the rare value of the card. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the rarity is set higher in the order of R1 to R5.
The attribute is an attribute of the character displayed on the card, and is one of N1 to N3 in the example shown in FIG.
The cost is a value referred to when the card is incorporated into the user's card team. For example, when a battle is played by a card team, the total cost of cards included in the card team is limited to a predetermined value or less.
The skill is information indicating an advantageous effect when a game is executed using a card. In the example shown in FIG. 4, skills having various effects of SK1 to SK12 are set for each card. Note that not all cards need to have skills.
The sale price is a point on the game that the user can obtain when selling the card that the user owns.
Attack power and defense power are parameters that are referred to when a card is used in a battle.
The limited flag is a flag indicating whether or not the card is issued for a limited time. In the example shown in FIG. 4, a card with a limited flag “1” means a card issued for a limited time, and a card with a limited flag “0” means a card that is not limited in time. To do.

(Ii) Evolutionary synthesis data table The evolutionary synthesis data table records conditions for evolutionary synthesis of the game cards of the present embodiment. FIG. 6 shows a configuration example of the evolutionary synthesis data table. In the example shown in FIG. 6, for each evolution ID for identifying the contents of evolutionary synthesis, a pre-evolution card ID (that is, a card ID of a card that becomes a base card before evolution), a post-evolution card ID (evolution of base card) Later card ID), and card ID combination conditions (five reference cards in columns C1 to C5) required for executing evolutionary synthesis are recorded. For example, under the condition indicated by the evolution ID: 0002, the user selects the card with the card ID: 0072 as the base card from the possessed cards, and the three cards with the card IDs: 0025, 0060, and 0070 are included in the user's possessed cards. If there is a combination of cards, the card with the card ID: 0072 can be evolved into the card with the card ID: 9072 by executing evolutionary synthesis. That is, the reference card ID combination condition in the evolutionary synthesis data table is an example of a change condition for changing the card corresponding to the pre-evolution card ID.
In the C1 to C5 columns indicating the card ID combination conditions of the reference card, the same card ID may be recorded in at least any two of the columns. For example, two or more identical reference cards may be included in the combination conditions of reference cards used when base cards are evolved and synthesized. If the reference card combination condition for evolving the base card includes a predetermined number of reference cards having the same card ID, the card of the reference card is used instead of the data format shown in FIG. A data format composed of an ID and the number thereof may be used.

(Iii) Possession card data table The possession card data table stores information on possession cards of the user (possession information). FIG. 7 shows a configuration example of the possessed card data table. Although FIG. 7 illustrates the possession card data table for one user, the possession card data table is provided for each user registered in the game.
In the possession card data table shown in FIG. 7, serial number, card level, skill level, and reservation ID data are recorded in association with each card ID. The serial number is a unique number determined when the card is given to the user. Different serial numbers are assigned to cards having the same card ID. When the card has evolved, the serial number may or may not be changed before and after the evolution of the card.
The card level is a parameter indicating a card growth level, and is increased by executing, for example, the normal synthesis. The value (initial value) of the card level at the time when the user obtains the card is 1, and the user can grow the card (that is, increase the card level) by executing normal synthesis.
The skill level is a parameter indicating a card development level, and particularly a parameter indicating a skill level of the card. The skill level (initial value) at the time when the user obtains a skill-equipped card is 1, and the skill level of the card is increased by performing normal synthesis using, for example, a card satisfying a predetermined condition as a reference card. Can be made. As the skill level of the card increases, the effect generated by the skill increases.
The reservation ID is identification information for identifying reservation contents for evolutionary synthesis. A reservation ID is associated with the possession card of the user who is a reserved card. For example, the example shown in FIG. 7 indicates that five cards with card IDs: 0591, 0010 (2 cards), 0033, and 2005 are reserved cards. The reservation ID recorded in the possession card data table corresponds to the reservation ID recorded in the reservation data table described later.

(Iv) Reservation data table The reservation data table records information of reserved cards for user evolutionary synthesis. FIG. 8 shows a configuration example of the reservation data table. Although FIG. 8 illustrates a reservation data table for one user, the reservation data table is provided for each user registered in the game.
In FIG. 8, reservation IDs are IDs issued in the order in which reservations for evolutionary synthesis are made. In the example shown in FIG. 8, numbers are recorded in ascending order such as 01, 02,. The evolution ID corresponds to the evolution ID shown in the evolution synthesis data table, and is an ID that specifies the content of evolution synthesis.
Among the reserved card serial numbers, the serial number of the pre-evolution card is a serial number corresponding to the possessed card selected by the user as the base card for evolution synthesis. Of the serial number of the reserved card, the columns C1 to C5 of the reference card correspond to the columns C1 to C5 constituting the combination condition of the reference card ID in the evolutionary synthesis data table, and the reference corresponding to each column. If the card has been reserved, the serial number of the reference card is recorded.
In each column of the reference card, data indicating “no reservation” (for example, NULL) is recorded in a column corresponding to a reference card that has not been reserved.
When the user performs a predetermined operation input and the reservation process is executed for the possessed card, the serial number corresponding to the card is written in the column corresponding to the card.
In the following, a case where a reservation data table is provided will be described, but it is not essential to provide a reservation data table independently. As a reservation management method for evolutionary synthesis, data to be recorded in the reservation data table may be recorded in the possession card data table. In that case, in the possessed card data table, it corresponds to the card ID of the reserved card, and any one of the reservation ID, evolution ID, and C1 to C5 character strings (corresponding to the columns C1 to C5 of the evolutionary synthesis data table). Any character string can be recorded.

  In the following description, the card name, card image, serial number, and card parameters associated with the card ID are collectively referred to as “card data” as appropriate. The card parameters constituting the card data include each card parameter recorded in the card data table, the card level and skill level recorded in the possessed card data table. That is, any of the data in the card name, card image, serial number, and each card parameter corresponds to the card data. Card data is an example of object information.

In FIG. 9, an image P <b> 1 is an image when the user makes a processing request for a monster card (hereinafter simply referred to as “card”) in the game of the present embodiment. In the image P1, as the operation target of the user, the button b1 (“view the possessed monster”), the button b2 (“team organization”), the button b3 (“normal composition”), the button b4 (“evolution composition”), the button b5 ("sale") is provided.
The button b1 is a button operated when making a request for a browsing process of the user's possession card. The button b2 is a button that is operated when the user selects a card to be used in a battle with another user or NPC from his / her own card. The button b3 is a button that is operated when a request for executing normal synthesis of a card selected as a base card from the possessed cards is made. The button b4 is a button that is operated when the user makes an execution request for the evolution synthesis of the card selected as the base card from the possessed cards. The button b5 is a button operated when making a sale processing request for a card selected from the possessed cards by the user.

When the button b4 ("evolutionary synthesis") is operated in the image P1, the image changes as shown in P2. In the image P2, a plurality of possession cards are displayed in a list in order to select one of the possession cards of the user as a base card. Note that images are configured so that cards that cannot be evolved (in the example shown, cards TOM, TED, DSG) cannot be selected as base cards. That is, in the image P2, the card that can be evolved and the card that cannot be evolved among the cards possessed by the user are shown in a display format that can be identified by the user. The method of indicating the card that can be evolved and the card that cannot be evolved in a display format that can be identified by the user is not limited to the example shown in the image P2 of FIG. The list of possessed cards may be a list of character strings of the card names of each card, and in that case, it is possible to identify the card that can evolve and the card that cannot evolve by the brightness, size, etc. of the character string. May be. In the image P2, for example, when the card KLM is selected as one of the cards that can be evolved, the image changes as shown in P3. In the image P3, a button b6 (“Select”) for confirming the selected card as the base card for evolutionary synthesis and a button b7 (“Back” for selecting another card as the base card after returning to the image P2). ]).
When the button b6 is operated by the user in the image P3, when the card KLM selected as the base card does not satisfy the reference card condition required for evolution, the image is updated as shown in P4. . The image P4 is an image for reserving, for evolutionary synthesis, a card possessed by the user among reference cards necessary for the card KLM selected as the base card to evolve. When the user operates the button b6 in the image P3, if the card KLM selected as the base card satisfies the reference card condition necessary for evolution, the card KLM is used instead of the image P4. An image (not shown) for the user to instruct whether or not to execute the evolutionary synthesis is displayed.

In the image P4, a display area 101 indicating a pre-evolution card (here, the card KLM as a base card) and a post-evolution card (for example, a card QRS), a reference card necessary for evolutionary synthesis and its state (possessed, not possessed) , Any one of which has been reserved), and a button b8 ("Reserve") for reserving a reference card possessed by the user. When the button b8 is operated in the image P4, the reservation is executed for the reference card possessed by the user, and the image P5 indicating that the reservation is completed is displayed.
The image P4 shows a case where all of the reference cards possessed by the user are reserved, but the card to be reserved may be individually selectable. For example, it may be configured to make a reservation by designating at least one of the possessed reference cards.

(B) Possession card browsing process (Figure 10)
FIG. 10 shows a series of display screen changes when the user's possession card browsing process is executed. In FIG. 10, an image P1 is the same as that shown in FIG.
When the button b1 ("see the possessed monster") is operated in the image P1, the image changes as shown in P6. In the image P6, a list of cards possessed by the user is displayed. At this time, it is preferable that the reserved card for evolutionary synthesis is displayed in a display format that allows the user to distinguish it from other cards. In the example shown in FIG. 10, the mark indicating the shape of the key is displayed on the reserved card to indicate to the user that the card is a reserved card. By indicating that it is a reserved card, it is possible to prevent the user from using the reserved card for processing other than evolutionary synthesis and disappearing.
Note that the method of displaying the reserved card and other cards in a display format that can be identified by the user is not limited to the example shown in the image P6 of FIG. The list of possessed cards may be a list of character strings of the card names of each card. In that case, the reserved cards and other cards may be identified by the brightness, size, etc. of the character strings. Good.

(C) Sale processing of reserved card (FIG. 11)
FIG. 11 shows a series of changes in the display screen when the user executes processing when selling a reserved card. In FIG. 11, an image P1 is the same as that shown in FIG.
When the button b5 (“Sale”) is operated in the image P1, the image changes as shown in P7. In the image P7, a list of cards possessed by the user is displayed. The card that the user desires to sell is selected from the list of possessed cards in the image P7. At this time, when a reserved card is selected from among possession cards as an object to be sold, the image changes as shown in P8. The image P8 includes text for notifying that the card selected by the user is a reserved card, and buttons b10 ("Continue") and b11 ("Back") for selecting whether or not to continue the sale process. )including. When the button b10 is operated in the image P8, the sale process is performed even if the card is a reserved card, whereby the user obtains a sale price point corresponding to the card and loses the reserved card.

As shown in the image P8, making the procedure for selling the reserved card complicated is an example of limiting the use of the reserved card for processing other than evolutionary synthesis.
Although not shown in FIG. 11, in the image P7, the user's list of possessed cards may be displayed in such a manner that the reserved cards cannot be selected. That is, in order to more reliably prevent the reserved card from being used for processes other than evolutionary synthesis, execution of the reserved card sale process may be prohibited.

(D) Evolutionary synthesis process (FIG. 12)
FIG. 12 shows a series of display screen changes when the evolutionary synthesis process is executed based on the user's operation. In FIG. 12, an image P10 is an example of an image displayed when the user obtains a new card DSG during the game.
When the new card DSG is acquired and the combination conditions of the reserved evolutionary synthesis reference card are satisfied, the reserved reference card for evolutionary synthesis is obtained by obtaining the new card. It is preferable to notify the user that the combination condition is satisfied. More preferably, as shown in P11, it is preferable to display an image for executing evolutionary synthesis.
The image P11 is a display area 101 that shows a pre-evolution card (card KLM) and an post-evolution card (card QRS), and a display area 102 that shows a reference card necessary for evolutionary synthesis and its state (reserved or possessed here). , And a button b20 (“Yes”) and a button b21 (“No”) for receiving a request as to whether or not to perform evolutionary synthesis are displayed.
When the button b20 is operated in the image P11, the image changes as shown in P12. In the example of the image P12, at least a part of the card image and card name of the evolved card and the parameters are displayed.
If a new card is acquired and the combination conditions of the reserved evolutionary synthesis reference card are satisfied, the evolutionary synthesis is executed without waiting for the user's operation. On the other hand, it may be notified that evolutionary synthesis has been performed. That is, in FIG. 12, the image P12 may be displayed subsequent to the image P10.

(1-7) Overview of Functions Provided by Information Processing Device Next, functions provided by the game server 20 in order to realize the above-described game of the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 13 is a functional block diagram for explaining functions that play major roles in the game server 20 of the present embodiment. In FIG. 13, the data table group 70 includes a card data table, an evolutionary synthesis data table, a possessed card data table, and a reservation data table as described above. Note that not all the means included in the functional block diagram shown in FIG. 13 are indispensable elements for the present invention. For example, in one aspect of the present invention, it is only necessary to include the receiving unit 51, the acquiring unit 55, the output unit 56, and the limiting unit 58.

The accepting unit 51 has a function of accepting various requests from the user based on information related to the user's operation input. As a request from the user in the game of this embodiment, for example, a request for evolutionary synthesis processing of a card, a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing, a request for execution of evolutionary synthesis, a request for browsing processing of a user's possessed card, a possession of a user There is a request for card sales.
In response to the image data output from the output means 56, the evolution synthesis reservation process requests evolution synthesis of at least one of the base card in evolution synthesis and a plurality of reference cards corresponding to the base card. This is a request that reserves for the purpose and restricts processing other than the evolutionary synthesis.
In order to realize the function of the accepting unit 51, the game server 20 receives a request corresponding to the button operation input by the user in the web page as an image from the user terminal 10 via the communication interface unit 24. The CPU 21 of the game server 20 determines the content of the request based on the information included in the received request and performs a request acceptance process. In the reception process, the request is recorded in the RAM 13. The CPU 21 sequentially executes processes corresponding to the accepted requests.

The game processing unit 52 has a function of executing various game processes other than evolutionary synthesis based on the request from the user terminal 10 received by the receiving unit 51. The game process of the present embodiment may be provided as appropriate. For example, a battle process between users, a battle process between a user and an NPC, a quest process by a user, a normal synthesis process of a user possession card, a user possession card The sale process.
Although the battle process will not be described in detail, for example, the user forms a team composed of a plurality of possessed cards in advance so that the total cost is equal to or less than a predetermined upper limit value, and battles with other users or NPCs by the team. The match result is determined by parameters such as attack power, defense power, and skill of each card constituting the team.
The quest process is a process for the user to obtain a card or an item by performing a process of searching for an area in the game.

  The function of the game processing means 52 when executing the normal synthesis process for the user's possessed card is realized as follows. When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives a normal synthesis execution request including the user's selection result for the base card and the reference card, the CPU 21 reads the card data of the base card and the reference card from the possessed card data table and develops them in the RAM 23. Next, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 changes the base card parameters (for example, card level and skill level) based on the base card and reference card parameters, and writes the changed base card parameters to the possessed card data table. Then, the card data of the possession card as the reference card is deleted from the possession card data table. Note that the card level and skill level of the base card are not always increased every time normal synthesis is executed. For example, each time the normal synthesis is performed, the value of the growth parameter associated with the card is increased, and when the value of the growth parameter reaches a predetermined value, the card level is increased by 1 and the value of the growth parameter is set to zero. It may be reset.

  The function of the game processing means 52 when executing the selling process of the user's possessed card is realized as follows. When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives the request for the sale process and acquires the selection result of the sale target card, the card data of the sale target card is deleted from the possessed card data table. Further, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 reads the sale price value (point) of the card to be sold from the card data table, and performs a process of giving the read point to the user. The process of giving points to the user is, for example, a process of updating the value of the user's possessed points recorded in a user database (not shown).

The determination means 53 has a function of determining whether or not a condition that a plurality of reference cards, which are combination conditions corresponding to the base card, are included in the user's possession card is satisfied.
In order to realize the function of the determination unit 53, for example, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 determines whether or not all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID to be determined in the reservation data table have been prepared. Specifically, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 uses each reference card ID corresponding to the evolution ID corresponding to the reservation ID to be determined (the cards recorded in the columns C1 to C5 of the evolutionary synthesis data table in FIG. 6). ID) is read from the evolutionary synthesis data table. Further, the CPU 21 determines whether serial numbers are recorded in all the columns C1 to C5 of the reference card in the reservation data table corresponding to the card IDs in the columns C1 to C5 that have been read. When serial numbers are recorded in all fields, the condition that a combination of a plurality of reference cards corresponding to the base card is included in the user's possessed card is satisfied.

The card data changing unit 54 has a function of executing evolutionary synthesis for changing the card data of the base card when the determining unit 53 determines that the condition is satisfied. Evolutionary synthesis is an example of processing for changing a card or changing processing.
In the example of this embodiment, in order to realize the function of the card data changing unit 54, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives the evolution synthesis execution request, the pre-evolution card (that is, evolution synthesis) is received in the possessed card data table. The card data of the base card) is erased, and the card data of the evolved card is newly written. Thereby, the base card of the user's possession card will evolve. As shown in the evolution synthesis data table, since the card ID is different before and after evolution, at least one of the card name, the card image, and the card parameter is changed by evolution synthesis.

The acquisition means 55 has a function of acquiring a plurality of reference card IDs, which are reference card combination conditions (an example of change conditions) corresponding to a base card (an example of a selected object) selected by the user, from the evolutionary synthesis data table. Prepare. The acquisition unit 55 acquires a serial number (an example of object information) of one of the user's possessed cards based on the user's operation input when making a reservation for the card for evolutionary synthesis. It has a function.
When the acquisition unit 55 acquires a plurality of reference card IDs, which are reference card combination conditions, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 creates an evolutionary synthesis data table in response to acquiring a base card selection result from the user terminal 10. Referring to, a plurality of reference card IDs constituting a combination condition corresponding to the base card is read out.
On the other hand, when the acquisition unit 55 acquires the serial number of the card, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing from the user terminal 10, the base card to be subjected to evolutionary synthesis and the base card From a plurality of reference cards corresponding to the card, a possessed card that is not reserved is identified with reference to the possessed card data table, and the serial number of the identified card is read out.

The output unit 56 uses a plurality of reference card IDs (information indicating a plurality of objects) acquired by the acquiring unit 55 and is a combination condition of the reference cards, so that the plurality of reference cards can be identified to the user. A function of outputting image data (an example of output data) to be displayed in a format is provided. An example of the image displayed by the output means 56 is the image P4 in FIG.
In order to realize the function of the output means 56, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 obtains the selection result (serial number) of the base card from the user terminal 10, the base card selected by the user with reference to the evolutionary synthesis data table A plurality of reference card IDs (card IDs in the columns C1 to C5) that are combination conditions corresponding to the pre-evolution card IDs that match the card IDs corresponding to the serial numbers are read out. The CPU 21 refers to the card data table and the possessed card data table in order to obtain card data corresponding to each reference card ID. Then, the CPU 21 generates an image in which the selected base card and a plurality of reference cards corresponding to the base card are displayed in a display format that can be identified by the user. An example of the “display format that can be identified by the user” is a format in which the card image of each card is displayed as illustrated in the image P4 of FIG.

  The recording unit 57 has a function of recording the serial number acquired by the acquiring unit 55 in the reservation data table in the storage 25 as a reserved card in response to receiving a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing. In the example of the present embodiment, the reservation target card is a card specified as a restricted object that should be restricted from being used for processing different from the evolution synthesis of the selected base card. The serial number of the non-reserved possession card acquired by the acquisition means 55 is recorded in the reservation data table as the serial number of the reservation target card.

In order to realize the function of the recording means 57, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives a request for reservation processing for evolutionary synthesis, it accesses the reservation data table and writes the serial number of the reservation target card. More specifically, when the serial number of the card selected as the base card among the reservation target cards is not recorded in the reservation data table, a new reservation ID is issued. The CPU 21 writes the serial number of the card selected as the base card in the “pre-evolution card” column in association with the issued reservation ID. Furthermore, the same reference card ID column (any one of the columns C1 to C5) as the card ID corresponding to the serial number of the reference card among the reservation target cards is specified, and the reference card among the reservation target cards is specified in the specified column. Write the serial number.
On the other hand, when the reservation ID has already been issued, the serial number has already been recorded in the “pre-evolution card” column, and therefore the CPU 21 only writes the serial number of the reference card among the reservation target cards. .

The restricting means 58 has a function of restricting the reserved card recorded in the reservation data table from being used for processing other than the target evolutionary synthesis. More specifically, the restricting means 58 determines the reference card combination condition acquired by the acquiring means 55 from among the possessed cards of the user in response to receiving the request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing by the receiving means 51. And a card (that is, a reserved card) recorded in the reservation data table based on the possession card data table (an example of possession information) of the requesting user and used for processing other than the target evolutionary synthesis It has a function to limit what is done.
“Used for processing other than the desired evolutionary synthesis” means that a card recorded as a reserved card associated with the desired evolutionary synthesis is an evolutionary synthesis other than the intended evolutionary synthesis or normal synthesis. The case where it is used for is also included.
Various limiting methods by the limiting means 58 can be considered. For example, when a card to be restricted is selected for a method for prohibiting processing other than the evolutionary synthesis intended by the user, or when the card to be restricted is selected for processing other than the intended evolutionary synthesis, For example, there is a method of performing a warning or confirming the continuation of the process.

  For example, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives an execution request for any of the various processes of the game of the present embodiment, the possessed card data table is selected when the possessed card of the user is selected as the processing target card. , It is determined whether or not the reservation ID is associated with the card ID of the selected card. When the reservation ID is associated with the card ID of the selected card and the process related to the execution request is not the evolutionary synthesis process corresponding to the reservation ID, the CPU 21 may prohibit the process, The user may be notified that the selected card is a reserved card. Alternatively, the user may be notified that the selected card is a reserved card, and the user may be confirmed as to whether or not to continue the process. Since the reservation data table associates the evolution ID with the serial number of the reserved card, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 corresponds to the target evolutionary synthesis (that is, corresponding to a specific evolution ID) corresponding to the reserved card. Evolving synthesis). Therefore, it is possible to determine whether or not the process that the user intends to execute using a specific possession card is the target evolutionary synthesis process.

The notification means 59 is based on the user possessed card data table (an example of possession information) and the reference card combination conditions acquired by the acquisition means 55 at a predetermined timing, and a plurality of reference cards included in the combination conditions. When it is determined that the user possesses the card, a function is provided for notifying that the user possesses a plurality of reference cards included in the combination condition in a format that the user can identify. In the example of the present embodiment, as shown in the image P <b> 11 of FIG. 12, image data for notifying the user at the timing when the user obtains the card is generated and transmitted to the user terminal 10.
In order to realize the function of the notification unit 59, for example, when the user obtains a card, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 obtains the card, and thereby the evolution synthesis corresponding to any reservation ID in the reservation data table. It is determined whether or not a plurality of reference cards necessary for the user are included in the user's possession card, that is, whether or not all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are prepared. When it is determined that all the reference cards are prepared, image data for notifying the user that the reference cards necessary for evolutionary synthesis are prepared is created and transmitted to the user terminal 10.

Further, the notifying unit 59 further includes a plurality of references included in the combination condition based on the user's possessed card data table (an example of possession information) and the reference card combination condition acquired by the acquiring unit 55 at a predetermined timing. If it is determined that the condition for executing the evolutionary synthesis of the card selected by the user is satisfied by determining that the card is possessed, the user determines that the condition for executing the evolutionary synthesis of the card is satisfied. May be reported in a form that can be identified.
In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which it is a necessary and sufficient condition for the conditions for executing evolutionary synthesis to be satisfied that the reference cards necessary for evolutionary synthesis are complete, but the present invention is not limited to this example. For example, in addition to reference cards necessary for evolutionary synthesis, when other conditions (for example, the user consumes a predetermined amount of points) are met, conditions for executing evolutionary synthesis may be met. There may be. In that case, when other conditions are not satisfied when the reference cards necessary for evolutionary synthesis are ready (for example, when the user has insufficient points), only that the reference cards are ready. To the user, and when the other conditions are satisfied, the user may be further notified that the conditions for executing the evolutionary synthesis are satisfied.

  It is not essential to provide the notification means 59, but by providing the notification means 59, for example, some of the reference cards required for evolutionary synthesis are reserved before the execution of evolutionary synthesis, and the remaining Since the user who is waiting for the evolutionary synthesis until the reference card is obtained is notified that all the reference cards necessary for the evolutionary synthesis are obtained by obtaining the card, convenience for the user can be improved.

  The display unit 60 displays a reserved card (that is, a card specified as a restricted object to be restricted by the restricting unit 58) and other cards among the possessed cards of the user in a display format that allows the user to identify the card. A function for performing control for display is provided. Although the timing for performing such display is not particularly limited, in the example of the present embodiment, (i) a request for evolutionary synthesis processing of a card from the user terminal 10 and (ii) browsing of a user's possessed card This is the timing when a request for processing is acquired.

(i) Display at the time of request for card evolution synthesis processing from the user terminal 10 In this case, the difference in the display mode for each possessed card is the text displayed in association with the card as shown in the image P4 of FIG. . That is, on the card corresponding to the serial number recorded in the reservation data table, the text “Reserved” is displayed in association with the card, and on the card corresponding to the serial number not recorded in the reservation data table, The text “possessed” or “not possessed” is displayed in association with the card. The difference in the display mode is not limited to this example, and may be appropriately set as long as the display format can be identified by the user, for example, when the card is changed in form or size.
The function of the display means 60 in this case can be realized as follows. When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 obtains a base card selection result from the user terminal 10, for example, it reads out a combination of a plurality of reference card IDs necessary for evolving the base card from the evolution synthesis data table, For the reference card, the card status (“reserved”, “possessed” or “not possessed” status) is specified. The CPU 21 generates image data to be transmitted (output) to the user terminal 10 based on the state of each reference card. In generating image data, the display mode of each card is distinguished according to the state of each reference card. The CPU 21 of the game server 20 refers to the possessed card data table and the reservation data table in order to specify the state of each reference card. For example, in the reservation data table, when serial numbers are written in the columns C1 to C5 (see FIG. 8) associated with the evolution ID corresponding to the base card, the reference card corresponding to each column is “ Identified as “reserved”.

(ii) Display at the time of user's possession card browsing process request In this case, the difference in the display mode for each possessed card is the presence or absence of a symbol to be displayed in association with the card, as shown in image P6 of FIG. . In other words, on the card corresponding to the serial number recorded in the reservation data table (that is, the reserved card), a predetermined symbol is displayed in association with the card and corresponds to the serial number not recorded in the reservation data table. On a card (a card that is not a reserved card), the predetermined symbol is not displayed in association with the card. The difference in the display mode is not limited to this example, and may be set as appropriate, for example, when the card form or size is changed and displayed.
In order to realize the function of the display means 60 in this case, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 specifies a reserved card from the possessed cards in the possessed card data table. At this time, the CPU 21 reads the serial number of the reserved card recorded in the reservation data table, and identifies the reserved card among the cards possessed by the user. Then, image data to be transmitted (output) to the user terminal 10 is generated in a display format in which the user can identify the reserved card and other cards in a list of possessed cards.
The reserved card specifying method may be performed based on whether data is recorded in the “reservation ID” column of the possessed card data table.

  Providing the display means 60 is not essential, but by providing the display means 60, the user who sees the display image can recognize the reserved card so as to be distinguishable from other cards. In addition, when any process is executed by designating one of the cards possessed by the user, the reserved card and other cards can be recognized in an identifiable manner. It can prevent more effectively using for the process of this.

(1-8) Game Processing Flow of the Present Embodiment Next, examples of the processing flow of the game of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 14A and 14B, FIGS. 15, 16A and 16B, FIGS. 17A and 17B, and FIG. This will be described with reference to the sequence chart.
FIG. 14A and FIG. 14B are sequence charts showing reservation processing for evolutionary synthesis. FIG. 15 is a sequence chart showing the possession card browsing process. FIG. 16A and FIG. 16B are sequence charts showing processing for selling reserved cards. FIG. 17A and FIG. 17B are sequence charts showing a determination process at the time of card acquisition. FIG. 18 is a sequence chart showing the evolution synthesis process.
In each figure, the step of displaying each of the images P1 to P8 and P10 to P12 shown in FIGS.

(A) Evolutionary synthesis reservation process (FIGS. 14A and 14B)
In the reservation process described below, as an example, when the user possesses a base card and a part of a plurality of reference cards for evolving and synthesizing the base card, the user possesses the base card. Assume that a reference card is reserved.

14A, when the user operates a predetermined button (for example, button b4 of image P1 in FIG. 9) on the image displayed on user terminal 10, CPU 11 of user terminal 10 accepts the request for evolutionary synthesis processing. (S10), the request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S12).
When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives a request for evolutionary synthesis processing from the user terminal 10, the CPU 21 reads out the evolved possession card of the user with reference to the evolutionary synthesis data table and possession card data table (S 14). That is, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 reads out the card data of the user's possessed card from the possessed card data table, and reads out all the pre-evolution card IDs (that is, the card IDs of the cards that can be evolved) in the evolutionary synthesis data table. Next, the CPU 21 specifies the serial number corresponding to the card ID of the card that can evolve from the user's possessed card (that is, the base card candidate), and generates image data including a list of base card candidates (S16). Then, it transmits to the user terminal 10 (S18).
Note that the image data generated in S16 is a display that allows the user to identify the card image that can be evolved and the image that cannot be evolved among the cards possessed by the user, as shown in the image P2 in FIG. It is preferably generated in the form.

  When acquiring the image data transmitted in S18, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S20). The image displayed in S20 includes images of a plurality of cards as base card candidates as illustrated in the image P2 of FIG. 9, and the serial number of each card is selected by operating the image of each card. It is configured to be possible. When an operation for selecting one of the plurality of base card candidates displayed in S20 as a base card is performed, the CPU 11 receives a selection result (serial number) of the base card (S22), and the selection result Is transmitted to the game server 20 (S24).

  When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 acquires the selection result (serial number) of the base card from the user terminal 10, the CPU 21 refers to the evolutionary synthesis data table and matches the card ID corresponding to the serial number of the base card selected by the user. A plurality of reference card IDs (card IDs in the columns C1 to C5) serving as combination conditions corresponding to the pre-evolution card ID are read (S26). Next, the CPU 21 refers to the possessed card data table and the reservation data table to identify the card state (not possessed, possessed, reserved) corresponding to each reference card ID read in S26, and based on the identification result. Image data is generated (S28).

The method for specifying the state of each reference card is as follows.
The serial number recorded in the “reserved card serial number” column of the reservation data table is read, and the card ID corresponding to the read serial number is specified with reference to the possessed card data table. If there is a card ID that matches the reference card ID read in S26 among the specified card IDs, the status of the card corresponding to the reference card ID is specified as “reserved”.
It is determined that the card ID recorded in the user's possessed card data table includes a card ID that matches the reference card ID read in S26, and the state of the card corresponding to the reference card ID is If it is not specified as “reserved”, the state of the card corresponding to the reference card ID is specified as “possession”. If the state of the card corresponding to the reference card ID read in S26 is not specified as “reserved” or “possession”, the state of the card corresponding to the reference card ID is “not possessed”. Identify.

The image data generated in S28 may differ depending on the card state identification result.
That is, if the state of all the reference cards read in S26 is “possessed” or “reserved”, it means that all the reference cards necessary for the evolutionary synthesis of the card selected as the base card are available. Therefore, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 generates image data for the user to instruct whether or not to perform evolutionary synthesis. When an operation input for selecting execution of evolutionary synthesis is performed, the process proceeds to evolutionary synthesis processing shown in FIG.
On the other hand, when the state of at least one of the reference cards read in S26 is “not possessed”, the CPU 21 (that is, when all the reference cards necessary for the evolutionary synthesis of the card selected as the base card are not available). First, image data for reserving a card selected as a base card and a reference card in the “held” state for evolutionary synthesis is generated.
Here, the latter case is assumed (when the state of any reference card is “not possessed”). In the latter case, as illustrated in the image P4 of FIG. 9, the CPU 21 associates each reference card with a card image so that each reference card can be identified to the user, and the card is assigned to each reference card. Image data is generated in such a manner that the specific results of the states are associated with each other. Further, the image data includes an instruction unit (for example, FIG. 9) that can accept a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing using a base card and a possession card that has not been reserved among a plurality of reference cards as reservation target cards. It is generated so that the button b8) of the image P4 is displayed.

  The CPU 21 of the game server 20 transmits the image data generated in S28 to the user terminal 10 (S30). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S30, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S32). Here, when an instruction for requesting a reservation process for evolutionary synthesis (for example, an operation of the button b8 of the image P4) is performed, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 accepts a request for a reservation process for evolutionary synthesis (S34). The request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S36).

Upon receiving the request for the reservation process for evolutionary synthesis, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 accesses the reservation data table, and whether the reservation ID corresponding to the serial number of the base card acquired in S24 has been issued (that is, “evolution” It is determined whether or not the same serial number is recorded in the "front card" field (S38). If the reservation ID has been issued (S38: YES), the process proceeds to S42. If the reservation ID has not been issued (S38: NO), the process proceeds to S42 after issuing the reservation ID (S40). In S42, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 writes the serial number of the reservation target card in association with the reservation ID in the reservation data table.
At this time, when the reservation ID is newly issued, the CPU 21 writes the serial number of the base card among the reservation target cards in the “pre-evolution card” column. Further, the “reference card” field (any one of the fields C1 to C5) identical to the card ID corresponding to the serial number of the reference card among the reservation target cards is specified, and the reservation target card is referred to in the specified field. Write the card serial number.
On the other hand, when the reservation ID has already been issued, the serial number has already been recorded in the “pre-evolution card” column, and therefore the CPU 21 only writes the serial number of the reference card among the reservation target cards. .
In addition, when the reservation ID of the reservation data table is newly issued, the CPU 21 stores data indicating “no reservation” in the column in which the serial number is not written among the columns C1 to C5 corresponding to the reservation ID. For example, NULL) is written.

  Next, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 writes the reservation ID data to be written in S42 in the “reservation ID” field corresponding to the card ID of the reservation target card in the possession card data table (S44). Finally, the CPU 21 generates image data indicating that the reservation has been completed (S46), and transmits the image data to the user terminal 10 (S48). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S48, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P5 in FIG. 9) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S50).

(B) Possession card viewing process (Figure 15)
In FIG. 15, when the user operates a predetermined button (for example, button b <b> 1 of image P <b> 1 in FIG. 10) on the image displayed on the user terminal 10, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 requests the possession card viewing process. Is received (S60), and the request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S62).
When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 accepts the possession card browsing process request from the user terminal 10, the card ID of the possession card is specified from the possession card data table, and the possession card card is identified from the card data table and the possession card data table. Data is read (S64).
Next, the game server 20 performs the following processing in order to specify a reserved card from the user's possession cards. That is, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 reads the serial number of the reserved card recorded in the reservation data table (S66), and specifies the reserved card among the possessed cards of the user. Then, image data is generated in a display format that allows the user to identify a reserved card and other cards (S68), and the image data is transmitted to the user terminal 10 (S70). . When acquiring the image data transmitted in S70, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P6 in FIG. 10) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S72).

(C) Sale processing of reserved card (FIG. 16A, FIG. 16B)
In FIG. 16A, when the user operates a predetermined button (for example, button b5 of image P1 in FIG. 11) on the image displayed on the user terminal 10, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 requests the possession card sale process. Is received (S80), and the request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S82).
When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 accepts the possession card sale processing request from the user terminal 10, it specifies the card ID of the possession card from the possession card data table, and the card of the possession card from the card data table and the possession card data table. The data is read to generate image data including a list of possessed cards (S84), and the image data is transmitted to the user terminal 10 (S86). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S86, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P7 in FIG. 11) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S88).
The image displayed in S88 includes the images of the user's possessed cards arranged as illustrated in the image P7 of FIG. 11, and the serial number of each card can be selected by operating the image of each card. It is comprised so that. When an operation for selecting one of the plurality of possessed cards displayed in S88 as a sale target card is performed, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 receives a selection result (serial number) of the sale target card (S90). ), And transmits the selection result to the game server 20 (S92).

When the game server 20 acquires the sale target card selection result (serial number) from the user terminal 10, the game server 20 warns the user when the sale target card is a reserved card for evolutionary synthesis. The following processing is performed. That is, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 refers to the possessed card data table to determine whether or not the reservation ID is associated with the serial number of the sale target card (S94). When the reservation ID is associated with the serial number of the card to be sold (S94: YES), warning image data is generated (S96), and the image data is transmitted to the user terminal 10 (S98). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S98, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P8 in FIG. 11) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S100).
The image displayed in S100 is provided with a button for confirming whether or not to continue the sale process, as illustrated in the image P8 of FIG. If the CPU 11 accepts a request to continue the sale process based on the user's operation of this button (S102: YES), the request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S104). When the request to continue the sale process is not accepted (S102: NO), an image for selecting the sale target card (for example, the image P7 in FIG. 11) may be displayed again.

If a request to continue the sale process received from the user terminal 10 is accepted, or if the reservation ID is not associated with the serial number of the card to be sold (if it is not a reserved card) (S94: NO), the game The CPU 21 of the server 20 stores the serial number of the card to be sold in the RAM 23, and deletes the data of the serial number row in the possessed card data table (S106). Further, in order to update the reservation data table, the following processing is performed. That is, as shown in FIG. 16B, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 has the reserved reference card reserved based on the serial number stored in the RAM 23 for the card (erase target card) deleted in S106. It is determined whether it is a reserved base card or any of them (S108).
If the erasure target card is a reserved reference card, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 erases all the serial numbers of the erasure target card recorded in the reservation data table (S110). When the erasure target card is a reserved base card (pre-evolution card), all the data in the row corresponding to the serial number of the erasure target card (pre-evolution card) recorded in the reservation data table is erased ( S112). If the erasure target card is not a reserved card, no processing is performed on the reservation data table.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when a reserved card for evolutionary synthesis is used for sale processing that is processing other than evolutionary synthesis, execution of sale processing is restricted. That is, the sale process is not immediately executed on the reserved card, but an image for warning the user that the sale target card is a reserved card is presented, and a request to continue the sale process is issued from the user terminal. The sale process is executed after waiting for acquisition.

(D) Determination process at the time of card acquisition (FIG. 17A, FIG. 17B)
In the game of the present embodiment, preferably, when the user newly obtains a card, the user possesses all of the plurality of reference cards, which are combination conditions corresponding to the reservation ID, by obtaining the card. If it becomes (that is, all the reference cards are prepared), the user is notified that all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are prepared. Therefore, when the user newly obtains a card, it is determined whether or not a combination condition of any of the evolutionary synthesis reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID is satisfied.
In this determination process, first, in FIG. 17A, when the CPU 21 of the game server 20 grants a card to the user by the game process, the card of the card that the user obtains from the card data table (referred to as “acquired card”). The ID is determined (S120). When the card ID of the obtained card is determined, the game server 20 generates image data including the card data of the obtained card and transmits it to the user terminal 10 to the user terminal 10 (S122). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S122, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P10 in FIG. 12) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S124).
Next, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 issues a serial number corresponding to the obtained card, and writes data corresponding to the issued serial number in the possessed card data table (S126). In this data writing, the initial value “1” is written as the card level and skill level. The card ID to be written is the card ID determined in S120.

  Next, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 identifies all the evolution IDs recorded in the reservation data table, and reads out a plurality of reference card IDs constituting the combination condition corresponding to the identified evolution ID from the evolution synthesis data table. (S128). In FIG. 17B, the CPU 21 determines whether or not each reference card ID read from the evolutionary synthesis data table matches the card ID (obtained card ID) of the obtained card (S130). If there is no reference card ID that matches the obtained card ID (S130: NO), the process ends. Even when the reference card ID that matches the obtained card ID exists (S130: YES), the CPU 21 determines that the serial number corresponding to the reference card ID has already been recorded in the reservation data table (that is, If the obtained card and the reserved card are associated with the same card ID) (S132: YES), it is not necessary to record a new serial number in the reservation data table, and the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 is a case where there is a reference card ID that matches the acquired card ID, and the serial number corresponding to the reference card ID is not recorded in the reservation data table (S132: NO). The serial number of the obtained card is written in the column (any one of C1 to C5) corresponding to the reference card ID (S134), and the reservation ID corresponding to the written serial number is read. Further, the CPU 21 writes the read reservation ID in association with the serial number of the obtained card in the possession card data table (S136).

  Next, the game server 20 determines whether or not all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID corresponding to the serial number written in S134 have been prepared (S138). Specifically, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 refers to the reference card IDs in the columns C1 to C5 (see the evolutionary synthesis data table) that constitute the combination of the reference card IDs for the evolution IDs corresponding to the reservation IDs corresponding to the obtained cards. It is determined whether or not all the reference cards are prepared by determining whether serial numbers are recorded in all the columns C1 to C5 of the reference card in the reservation data table. If all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are not available (S138: NO), the processing is terminated because the combination conditions of the reference cards are not satisfied by the obtained card. On the other hand, when all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are prepared (S138: YES), image data for notifying the user that all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are prepared is generated (S140), The image data is transmitted to the user terminal 10 (S142). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S142, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P11 in FIG. 12) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S144).

(E) Evolutionary synthesis process (FIG. 18)
For example, as a result of executing the above-described determination process at the time of obtaining a card, if the obtained card has all the reference cards necessary for evolutionary synthesis, the evolutionary synthesis process is performed. Executed.
The sequence chart shown in FIG. 18 shows the flow of processing when it is executed following the determination processing shown in FIGS. 17A and 17B. As illustrated in the image P11 of FIG. 12, the image displayed in S144 of FIG. 17B is provided with a button for confirming whether an execution request for evolutionary synthesis is to be performed. In FIG. 18, when the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 receives an evolution synthesis execution request based on the user's operation of this button (S150), the request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S152).

When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 receives the evolution synthesis execution request received from the user terminal 10, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 stores the card data of the pre-evolution card (that is, the evolution synthesis base card) in the possessed card data table. Erasing is performed (S154), and the card data of the evolved card is newly written (S156). In S156, the post-evolution card ID is read from the evolutionary synthesis data table based on the evolution ID recorded in the reservation data table corresponding to the reservation ID determined in S138 of FIG. 17B. Is written in the possessed card data table. At this time, the card data includes, for example, a serial number issued corresponding to the post-evolution card ID.
Next, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 deletes the card data of the reference card used for evolutionary synthesis from the possessed card data table (S158).

  Since the data associated with the reservation ID does not need to be recorded in the reservation data table after the evolution synthesis is executed, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 determines the reservation ID to be the object of evolution synthesis from the reservation data table. The row data is deleted (S160). Finally, the CPU 21 generates image data including the card data of the evolved card (S162), and transmits the image data to the user terminal 10 (S164). When acquiring the image data transmitted in S164, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 displays an image (for example, the image P12 in FIG. 12) on the display unit 16 based on the image data (S166).

  As described above, in the game system of the present embodiment, in order to execute evolutionary synthesis of a card, which is an example of a process for changing an object, a base card to be subjected to evolutionary synthesis and a plurality of references corresponding thereto The requirement is that the user has a card. Therefore, for example, when only a part of the plurality of reference cards is possessed, the base card cannot be evolved and the user cannot perform the evolution synthesis. Needs to wait until all of the reference cards are available. At this time, the game server 20 of the present embodiment reserves the base card and the reference card possessed by the user and required for the target evolutionary synthesis before the execution of the evolutionary synthesis in response to a request from the user. This restricts the use of the reserved card for processing other than the intended evolutionary synthesis. Therefore, in the standby period until the remaining reference cards that the user does not possess are obtained, the base card or reference card possessed by the user is erroneously used for another process other than the intended evolutionary synthesis. Can be prevented.

In the above-described embodiment, when some of the plurality of reference cards corresponding to the base card are reserved cards, when the user subsequently obtains a non-reserved card among the plurality of reference cards, the card is obtained. The case where the card automatically becomes a reservation target card (in other words, automatic reservation) has been described (S136 in FIG. 17B). That is, the recording means 57 includes a base card and some of the plurality of reference cards recorded in the reservation data table of the storage 25, and the user is one of the base card and the plurality of reference cards, and In the case where a card not included in the possession card is obtained, the case where the serial number (card data) of the obtained card is recorded in the reservation data table has been described. Specifically, in the determination process at the time of card acquisition shown in FIGS. 17A and 17B, serial data is stored in the column “reference card” that is the same as the acquired card ID among the reference card IDs corresponding to the reservation ID in the reservation data table. When the number is not recorded, the serial number of the obtained card is written without depending on the user's operation input (S134 in FIG. 17B).
In other words, in the above-described embodiment, a user obtains a card, and data in a row corresponding to a new card ID is added to the possessed card data table of the user, and the added card is reserved. When it is determined that the card is a reserved card (an example of a restriction object) by being reserved in the data table, the restriction means 58 performs a process different from the evolution synthesis corresponding to the reservation ID for the added card. The case of restricting the use to the above has been described.

  Such an automatic reservation has the following advantages. That is, when some of the plurality of reference cards are reserved (that is, recorded in the reservation data table), the user intends to execute the evolutionary synthesis of the target base card. Therefore, when the card obtained by the user is one of the multiple reference cards, the user does not perform an operation input for reservation by automatically reserving the obtained card. As a result, it is possible to more reliably prevent the newly obtained card from being used for processing other than evolutionary synthesis.

  However, it is not necessary to make an automatic reservation for the obtained card. In that case, the processing at the time of card acquisition ends with the processing of S120 to S126 in FIG. 17A. After the process of S126, the process may proceed to the determination process of S138 or may not proceed. If the process does not proceed to the determination process of S138, the process shown in FIG. 14A is started at a timing desired by the user. Image data for the user to instruct whether or not to do so is transmitted. When an operation input for selecting execution of evolutionary synthesis is performed, the process proceeds to evolutionary synthesis processing shown in FIG.

In the present embodiment, the case where the notification unit 59 notifies the user terminal 10 of the user at a timing when a new card ID is added to the user possessed card data table has been described as an example. The timing is not limited to this example. The timing at which the user starts the game (for example, when to log in) may be notified, or when the game is divided into multiple stages (for example, when the game is composed of a plurality of stages, each stage is played) You may alert | report at the timing etc. which were complete | finished.
In addition, when the user obtains the card at the timing of obtaining the card, every time the user obtains the card, a part of the conditions for performing the evolutionary synthesis of the card selected as the base card or You will pay attention to whether everything is satisfied. Therefore, the expected value when the user obtains a new card can be improved.

In the present embodiment, when the restriction unit 58 requests the reserved card to execute processing different from the evolution synthesis of the corresponding base card, as illustrated in the image P8 in FIG. The case where warning is performed was explained. The process requested to be executed may be interrupted without being limited to the warning. For example, when any possessed card is selected in the image P7 of FIG. 11, the processing for the selected card may be interrupted. Further, in the image P7, the reserved card may be displayed in such a manner that it cannot be selected by being darkly displayed.
This reliably prevents the reserved card from being used for processing other than evolutionary synthesis corresponding to the reservation ID, or alerts the user to being used for processing other than evolutionary synthesis corresponding to the reservation ID. Can be encouraged.

(2) Second Embodiment In the first embodiment, communication according to HTTP is performed between the user terminal 10 and the game server 20, and the user terminal 10 interprets an HTML document acquired from the game server 20. Although the case where the present invention is realized by a so-called browser format that displays a game image in this way has been described, the present invention is not limited to this case. It is realized by a so-called native application format in which the user terminal 10 executes the game program downloaded by the user terminal 10 to execute the game process and suppresses the transmission / reception process between the user terminal 10 and the game server 20. May be. In the native application format, image data is generated and displayed in the user terminal 10 without using a web browser.
In the second embodiment, an example in which the game of the first embodiment is realized in the native application format will be described. Note that the hardware configuration of this embodiment may be the same as that of the first embodiment. In the format of the native application of the present embodiment, it is assumed that most of the processing is performed on the user terminal 10 side. However, a part of the game processing not described below (for example, lottery processing given to the user by lottery, The present invention may be configured such that a game operator performs a process on the game server 20 side and transmits a processing result by the game server 20 to the user terminal 10.

In the present embodiment, the user terminal 10 receives a game program from the game operator's server based on a predetermined operation by the user, and the received game program is stored in the storage 18. When the game is started by the user terminal 10, communication is established between the user terminal 10 and the game server 20, and a login process is performed. A data table group (card data table, evolution) is transferred from the game server 20 to the user terminal 10. Composite data table, possessed card data table) are transmitted. The data table group transmitted to the user terminal 10 is held in the storage 18 of the user terminal 10. In this case, the data table group in the storage 18 is updated each time the user logs in. The reservation data table is generated by the user terminal 10 and stored in the storage 18, and is updated every time reservation processing is executed.
In order to prevent the possessed card data table from being falsified in the user terminal 10, the possessed card data table in the user terminal 10 is stored in the game every time a predetermined process by the user terminal 10 is completed or when the user terminal 10 logs out. It is transmitted to the server 20. The game server 20 compares the received possessed card data table with the possessed card data table in the storage 25, and after confirming whether the data has been tampered with, has received the possessed card data table in the storage 25. Update to stuff.

19A and 19B are sequence charts showing reservation processing for evolutionary synthesis according to this embodiment. 20A and 20B are sequence charts showing a reserved card sale process. In each of FIGS. 19A, 19B, 20A, and 20B, the same processes as those in FIGS. 14A, 14B, 16A, and 16B are denoted by the same reference numerals.
In the evolutionary synthesis reservation process (FIGS. 19A and 19B) of the present embodiment, for example, when logging in, the game server 20 sends to the user terminal 10 a data table group (card data table, evolutionary synthesis data table, possessed card) in the storage 25. Data table) is transmitted (S8). The CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 stores the received data table group in the storage 18 and executes the processes of S14 to S50 in cooperation with the RAM 13 and the display unit 16 based on the operation input from the operation input unit 15. To do. The CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 stores the reservation data table in the storage 18 after sequentially updating the reservation data table and completing the reservation process. After the processing of S50 is completed or at the time of logout, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 transmits a possessed card data table to the game server 20 (S52).

In the reserved card selling process (FIGS. 20A and 20B) according to the present embodiment, transmission of the data table group from the game server 20 to the user terminal 10 (S78) and the end of the selling process are performed as in the above-described reservation process. The possessed card data table is transmitted from the subsequent user terminal 10 to the game server 20 (S114). Based on the operation input from the operation input unit 15, the CPU 11 of the user terminal 10 executes the processes of S80 to S112 in cooperation with the RAM 13, the display unit 16, and the like.
Although not shown, in this embodiment, the user terminal 10 executes the possessed card browsing process, the determination process at the time of card acquisition, and the evolutionary synthesis process in a similar manner.
In the present embodiment, the case where the card data table, the evolution synthesis data table, and the possessed card data table are held in the game server 20 and the reservation data table is held in the user terminal 10 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this case. In the game of the native application format, it is possible to appropriately set the holding share of each data table, and it is only necessary to hold it in at least one of the user terminal 10 and the game server 20, and a specific holding mode It is not limited to. When any one of the data tables is held in the game server 20, the data table held in the game server 20 is transmitted to the user terminal 10 when the game is executed, and is used for game processing performed in the user terminal 10. Is done.

(3) Modified Examples Hereinafter, modified examples common to the above-described embodiments will be described.
(3-1) Modification 1
In the embodiment, after a base card is selected, a possession card that has not been reserved among a plurality of reference cards for performing evolution synthesis of the base card is determined based on a request for evolution synthesis reservation processing from the user terminal 10. Although the case of making a reservation in a batch has been described, the present invention is not limited to this case. When there are a plurality of possession cards that have not been reserved, the user may be able to select a reservation target card in units of cards.
For example, FIG. 21 shows an image P4a according to a modification of the image P4 in FIG. In the image P4a shown in FIG. 21, the case where the reference card necessary for evolutionary synthesis and the state of the card KLM selected as the base card is different from the image P4 in FIG. 9 is shown as an example. In the image P4a shown in FIG. 21, the buttons b30 and b31 labeled “Reserve” are displayed for each of the two possessed cards that are not reserved among the plurality of reference cards. By operating each button, the user can select a reservation target card in units of cards.
In this modification, for example, in FIG. 14B, when an operation for any of the buttons b30 and b31 is performed as an operation for requesting the reservation process for evolutionary synthesis, the request for the reservation process for evolutionary synthesis is accepted (S34). ), The request is transmitted to the game server 20 (S36). Each button is associated with a serial number of the card, and the request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing includes the serial number corresponding to the operated button. The processing after S38 can be executed in the same manner as shown in FIG. 14B.

(3-2) Modification 2
In the evolutionary synthesis reservation process of the first embodiment, in association with FIG. 9, FIG. 14A, and FIG. 14B, when a user possesses a base card and some of a plurality of reference cards, Although the case of making a reservation with a possessed reference card has been described, only a base card may be reserved. In other words, even if the user has only a base card and does not have any reference card for evolutionary synthesis of the basecard, only the basecard can be reserved for evolutionary synthesis. Also good.
For example, FIG. 22 shows an image P4b according to a modification of the image P4 in FIG. In the image P4b shown in FIG. 22, the reference card necessary for evolutionary synthesis and the state of the card KLM selected as the base card are different from the image P4 in FIG. 9 as an example. In the image P4b shown in FIG. 22, the user does not possess any of the plurality of reference cards. Even in such a case, the button b32 (“Reserve”) is provided in association with the card KLM selected as the base card. By operating the button b32, the user can select only the base card as a reservation target card.
In this modification, for example, in FIG. 14B, when an operation for the button b32 is performed as an operation for making a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing, a request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing is accepted (S34), and the request is sent to the game server. 20 (S36). The button b32 is associated with the serial number of the card, and the request for evolutionary synthesis reservation processing includes the serial number corresponding to the operated button. The processing after S38 can be executed in the same manner as shown in FIG. 14B.

(3-3) Modification 3
In each of the above-described embodiments, when all the reference cards corresponding to evolutionary synthesis corresponding to the reservation ID of the reservation data table are prepared as user possessed cards, the evolutionary synthesis is automatically performed without waiting for the user's operation input. May be executed. In that case, when the user obtains the card and the plurality of reference cards are included in the user's possessed card and the conditions for evolutionary synthesis are satisfied, the notification means 59 indicates that the evolutionary synthesis has been executed. To inform.
For example, in the flow shown in FIG. 17B and FIG. 18, when all the reference cards corresponding to the reservation ID are prepared (S138: YES), the processes of S140 to S152 are omitted, and the process proceeds to S154. Also good. When the evolutionary synthesis is automatically executed without waiting for the user's operation input, the fact that the evolutionary synthesis has been executed is notified to the user by performing image display in S166. This modification has an advantage that the operability is improved because the user does not need an operation for executing evolutionary synthesis.

(3-4) Modification 4
In each embodiment described above, the output means 56 displays image data for displaying the button b8 (see image P4 in FIG. 9) as an instruction unit for requesting evolutionary synthesis reservation processing for a plurality of reference data. In the above description, the receiving unit 51 receives a request made through the button b8 by a user operation. By providing an instruction unit as an operation target by the user in an image displayed on the user terminal 10, the user can display the plurality of reference cards in a state in which the plurality of reference cards are displayed in an identifiable display format.

The request receiving method is not limited to the above-described case. For example, the request receiving method may be a method of receiving an instruction input by shaking a user terminal provided with an acceleration sensor or an instruction input (gesture input) by a gesture. In gesture input, by performing a predetermined gesture for a user terminal having an imaging function, the user terminal recognizes an image of the gesture and recognizes an operation input associated with the gesture in advance. Further, in the case of a user terminal capable of executing a voice recognition program, the request receiving method may be a method of receiving an instruction input by a predetermined voice.

(3-5) Modification 5
In the embodiment described above, for example, as illustrated in S22 and S24 of FIG. 14A, a case where a base card is selected by a user operation and the selection result is transmitted to the game server 20 has been described. Absent. It may be a case where a base card is automatically selected. For example, the user registers a card that he / she does not currently have but wants to evolve in the future. And the game server 20 performs the process after S26 which used the registration card as a base card at the timing which acquired the card (registration card) which the user registered. At this time, an inquiry is made to the user terminal 10 as to whether or not to execute the reservation process at the timing when the registration card is obtained, and the processes after S26 are executed only when execution of the reservation process is selected. May be.
In the present modification, the user terminal 10 requests that the user wants to make an evolutionary synthesis base card at an arbitrary timing in a registration data table (not shown) in the storage 25 based on the user's operation. . In response to the request, the CPU 21 of the game server 20 records the registration data table in association with the user. When the CPU 21 of the game server 20 decides to give a card to the user, the CPU 21 notifies the user of the card data of the card to be given, and the card to be given is recorded in the registration data table. It is determined whether or not the card matches. If they match, the processing from S26 onward in FIG.

Output using the information indicating the plurality of objects included in the change condition acquired by the acquisition means (55) to output output data for displaying the plurality of objects in a display format that can be identified by the user. Means (56);
A request made through an operation by the user in response to the output data being output by the output means (56), and processing is limited to at least one of the plurality of objects Receiving means (51) for receiving a request for
The possession information including the change condition acquired by the acquisition unit (55) in response to the reception of the request by the reception unit (51) and information indicating an object possessed by the request source user Based on the above, among the objects possessed by the user, the selected object is selected with respect to the object specified as the restricted object that should be restricted from being used in a process different from the process of changing the selected selected object. Restriction means (58) for restricting the use of the selected object to a process different from the process of changing the selected object;
It is an information processing apparatus characterized by having.

The “information processing apparatus” may be a stand-alone game machine, a user terminal (for example, a portable terminal or a personal computer), a network server, or the like. The entity of the information processing apparatus can be appropriately defined depending on the game implementation form. For example, when the function of each part of the information processing apparatus is realized by the user operating the game machine or the user terminal, the game machine or the user terminal corresponds to the information processing apparatus of the present invention. Alternatively, when the user terminal as a client has a function of accepting an operation input from the user and a function of displaying an image, and the function of each unit of the information processing apparatus is realized by a server that can substantially communicate with the user terminal. The server corresponds to the information processing apparatus of the present invention.
The “object” may be any display target as long as the user can visually recognize it, and can be set as appropriate according to the processing content of the information processing apparatus of the present invention. For example, when the information processing apparatus of the present invention processes information related to a game, the object may include a character or an item on the game. The character is, for example, a virtual person or creature on the game, a monster, or the like, and includes characters displayed on a card.
The “object possessed by the user” means an object managed as an object possessed by the user in information processing and stored or managed in association with the user.
The “storage device” may be a memory device having any configuration, such as a flash memory or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive). The storage device may be a device built in the information processing device, or may be an external device configured to be accessible from the information processing device in a wired or wireless manner.
“Restricting the use of a process different from the process of changing the selected object” is not limited to prohibiting the process itself other than the process of changing the selected object, and the process of changing the selected object is executable. However, the procedure for executing the process may be made difficult, or the procedure for executing the process may be complicated.

  In the information processing apparatus, the process of changing the selected object is performed based on a change condition including information indicating at least a plurality of objects and user possession information. Therefore, for example, when the change condition is not satisfied, it is not possible to execute the process of changing the selected object. At this time, the information processing apparatus restricts use of the selected object or a plurality of objects serving as the basis of the change condition for processing other than processing for changing the selected object in response to a request from the user. To do. Therefore, before the change condition is satisfied, the user is prevented from accidentally using either the selected object or multiple objects that are the basis of the change condition for processing other than processing that changes the selected object. can do.

The restriction means (58) is a case where information indicating an object is added to the possession information including information indicating an object possessed by the requesting user, and the object to be added restricts the object. When it is determined that the object is a restricted object, the added object may be restricted from being used in a process different from the process of changing the selected selected object.
“When information indicating an object is added to possession information” is, for example, a case where a user obtains an object. At this time, if it is determined that the object obtained by the user is a restricted object, the object is automatically used for processing other than processing for changing the selected object without receiving an instruction from the user. Is limited. Therefore, the user does not have to perform an operation input for an instruction, and the newly obtained object can be more reliably suppressed from being used for processes other than the process of changing the selected object.

The output means (56) outputs output data for displaying an instruction unit (b8) that can request processing to be restricted for the plurality of objects, and the reception means (51) A request made through the instruction unit (b8) may be accepted by an operation according to.
By providing the instruction unit (b8) in the image displayed based on the output data, the user can display the plurality of objects in a state where the plurality of objects included in the change condition are displayed in an identifiable display format. Since the request for restricting the processing can be made, the confirmation of the plurality of objects and the request can be executed at the same time without shifting to another image.

The information processing apparatus, based on the possession information including information indicating an object possessed by the request source user and the change condition acquired by the acquisition unit (55) at a predetermined timing, If it is determined that the user possesses a plurality of objects included in the change condition, the notification means (notifying the user that the plurality of objects included in the change condition are possessed) 59).
By providing the notification means (59), when it is determined that the user possesses a plurality of objects included in the change condition, the user can recognize the determination result in a recognizable format. Therefore, the user can immediately recognize that at least a part of the change condition for executing the process of changing the selected object is satisfied.

The notification means (59) is based on the possession information including information indicating an object possessed by the requesting user at a predetermined timing and the change condition acquired by the acquisition means (55). When it is determined that the user has a plurality of objects included in the change condition, and it is determined that the condition for performing the process of changing the selected selected object is satisfied, the selected You may alert | report in the form which the said user can identify that the conditions which perform the process which changes a selection object were materialized.
Accordingly, the user can immediately recognize that the change condition for executing the process of changing the selected object is satisfied and the process of changing the selected object can be executed.

The notification means (59) may notify the information indicating the object added to the possession information including the information indicating the object possessed by the requesting user.
By notifying the user when the user obtains the object, whether or not part or all of the change conditions for executing the process of changing the selected object are satisfied each time the user obtains the object You will pay attention to whether or not. Therefore, the expected value when the user obtains a new object can be improved.

When a request for executing a process different from the process of changing the selected selected object is made to the restricted object to be restricted, the restricting means (58) interrupts the process or warns the user. At least one of the processes may be performed.
This reliably prevents the restricted object from being used in processes other than the process of changing the selected object, or prompts the user to be alerted about being used in processes other than the process of changing the selected object. Can do.

The information processing apparatus displays, in a display format that allows the user to identify an object specified as the restricted object to be restricted by the restricting means (58) and other objects among the objects possessed by the user. You may have a display means (60) which performs control for displaying.
By providing such display means (60), the user who has viewed the display image can recognize the object specified as the restricted object so as to be distinguishable from other objects. Also, when any process is executed by specifying any object from the objects possessed by the user, the restricted object and other objects can be recognized in an identifiable manner, so that the process other than the process of changing the selected object can be performed. The use of restricted objects can be prevented more effectively.
