  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of an information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment. The information processing apparatus 10 is, for example, a computer or a mobile phone, and can execute a battle game by a plurality of players.

  First, an outline of the game according to the present embodiment will be described. The game according to the present embodiment is a game in which a plurality of players including the user of the information processing apparatus 10 play a battle. Other players other than the user may be players that are automatically operated by the information processing apparatus 10, or may be players that are operated by users of the other information processing apparatuses 10. The game according to the present embodiment has two battle methods, a normal battle and a special battle.

  The normal battle is a battle method in which a game medium owned by the user can be used to fight against a predetermined opponent, or a mission (quest) in the game can be captured to obtain rewards such as game media or in-game currency. is there. In the present embodiment, the game medium includes any medium in the game, such as a card, character, weapon, armor, or item in the game.

  The special battle is a battle method in which a plurality of players including a user compete for the number of areas occupied or the total area in a field in a game including a plurality of regions. The field shown in FIG. 2 includes a total of 16 areas of 4 horizontal x 4 vertical. Hereinafter, each area | region is shown by the combination of the code | symbol (ad) of a horizontal direction and the code | symbol (1-4) of a vertical direction shown in FIG. For example, the lower left area in FIG. 2 is the area a1. In the special battle, for example, the player who occupies the most area or the largest total area wins after the elapse of a predetermined time.

  In order to acquire an area, the player selects an area in the field and challenges an event set in the area. In the event, the player performs a battle with a character (NPC: Non-Player Character) that is automatically operated by the information processing apparatus 10 using, for example, a game medium acquired in the normal battle. The success or failure of the area acquisition by the player is determined according to the result of the event. For example, when the player wins the NPC or when the damage integrated value given to the NPC by the player is larger than the damage integrated value by any other player, the player acquires the area. Preferably, when a player acquires two areas so as to sandwich an area occupied by another player, the player further acquires a sandwiched area (hereinafter also referred to as an intermediate area). A specific example of processing for further acquiring the sandwiched area will be described later.

  Next, each component of the information processing apparatus 10 illustrated in FIG. 1 will be described. The information processing apparatus 10 includes a communication unit 11, a storage unit 12, a player determination unit 13, a point grant unit 14, a field determination unit 15, a display unit 16, an event processing unit 17, and a win / loss determination unit 18. And a control unit 19.

  The communication unit 11 can communicate with another information processing apparatus such as a server apparatus or a terminal apparatus by wire or wireless.

  The memory | storage part 12 can memorize | store various information used for the process of a game. In addition, the storage unit 12 stores player information 20 and area information 21.

  The player information 20 is information regarding each player participating in the special battle. For example, the player information 20 shown in FIG. 3 includes attribute information, a player ID that can identify the player, points, and a damage integrated value.

  The attribute information is information indicating an attribute associated with each player. In this embodiment, four types of attribute information A to D exist, but two or more types of attribute information may be present.

  The points are points in the game held by the corresponding player. Points are consumed for the player to challenge the event.

  The area information 21 is information regarding each area included in the field. For example, the area information 21 illustrated in FIG. 4 includes an event ID, attribute information, cost points, and a score integrated value in association with an area ID that can identify the area.

  The event ID is an identifier of an event (subgame) in the game that the player challenges to acquire the corresponding area. In the present embodiment, the event is a battle event with an NPC performed by a player using a game medium. In accordance with the event ID, for example, the type or strength of the NPC is determined.

  The attribute information indicates attribute information associated with the corresponding area. In the present embodiment, one attribute information can be associated with one area.

  The cost point indicates a point necessary for the player to challenge the event in the corresponding area. The cost point is stored corresponding to each attribute information.

  The score integrated value is stored corresponding to each attribute information. The score integrated value is an integrated value of scores acquired in the event of the corresponding region by each player associated with the same attribute information. In the present embodiment, the score is damage that the user has given to the NPC in the event.

  The player determination unit 13 illustrated in FIG. 1 determines a plurality of players participating in the special battle. The plurality of players include players operated by the user. Other players excluding the user are, for example, a player that is automatically operated by the information processing apparatus 10 or a player that is operated by another user.

  The player determination unit 13 stores different attribute information in the storage unit 12 in association with at least two players. The player determination unit 13 may associate the same attribute information with two or more players.

  The point assigning unit 14 assigns a predetermined value point (for example, 100 points) to each player and stores it in the storage unit 12.

  The field determination unit 15 determines a field including a plurality of areas and one or more axes on the field, which are used for the special battle. In the present embodiment, the field determination unit 15 determines four axes in the horizontal direction, four axes in the vertical direction, five axes in the upper right direction, and five axes in the lower right direction. For example, the horizontal axis 22 shown in FIG. 5 passes through the regions a1, b1, c1, and d1. Further, the vertical axis 23 passes through the regions a1, a2, a3, and a4. Further, the axis 24 in the upper right direction passes through the regions a1, b2, c4, and d4. The lower right axis 25 passes through the regions a4, b3, c2, and d1. The number and direction of axes on the field may be arbitrarily determined. The field determination unit 15 may automatically generate a field and an axis, or may use a field and an axis stored in the storage unit 12 in advance.

  Further, the field determination unit 15 sets a predetermined event (event ID) in each area and stores it in the storage unit 12.

  Preferably, the field determination unit 15 sets a predetermined cost point (for example, 10 points) in each area and stores it in the storage unit 12. The value of the cost point may be arbitrarily determined. For example, a larger cost point may be set as the area of the region is larger.

  Preferably, the field determination unit 15 assigns a cost point larger than the cost point of the first region where other regions exist on both sides along at least one axis on the field to the second region other than the first region. Set to the area. For example, in the field shown in FIG. 2, the areas a1, a4, d1, and d4 are the second areas, and the other areas are the first areas. A predetermined value of cost points (for example, 10 points) is set in the first area. In addition, in the areas a1, a4, d1, and d4 that are the second areas, cost points (for example, 30 points) that are larger than those in the first area are set.

  The display unit 16 is configured using an organic EL display, for example, and can display various game screens. Details of the various game screens will be described later. The display unit 16 is configured as a touch panel, for example, and functions as an interface that accepts user input by a user operation.

  When at least one area included in the field is selected by the player, the event processing unit 17 executes event processing for the area. In the present embodiment, the event processing unit 17 performs a process in which the player and the NPC battle each other as an event process. Preferably, the event processing unit 17 subtracts the cost point from the player's point and stores it in the storage unit 12 when the point held by the player is equal to or higher than the cost point used for the user, Start processing. The cost point used for the player is a cost point of the selected area corresponding to the same attribute information as the player.

  Further, the event processing unit 17 determines whether or not to newly associate the attribute information of the player who has challenged the event with the area based on the processing result of the event. For example, when the event processing result satisfies a predetermined condition, the event processing unit 17 newly associates the attribute information of the player with the area and stores the attribute information in the storage unit 12. Here, when other attribute information is already associated with the area, the attribute information is updated to the newly associated attribute information. The area associated with the attribute information is determined as an area occupied by one or more players associated with the same attribute information as the area.

  For example, a configuration will be described in which the event processing unit 17 determines whether or not to newly associate attribute information with the area based on the integrated value of damage given to the NPC. The event processing unit 17 calculates an integrated value of damage caused to the NPC by the player who has challenged the event, and damage previously given to the NPC by other players associated with the same attribute information as the player. And stored in the storage unit 12. In other words, the event processing unit 17 calculates a damage integrated value corresponding to the attribute information of the player and stores it in the storage unit 12. The event processing unit 17 extracts a damage integrated value corresponding to each attribute information different from the attribute information of the player from the storage unit 12. Then, when the damage integrated value corresponding to the attribute information of the player is larger than the damage integrated value corresponding to any other attribute information, the event processing unit 17 newly associates the attribute information of the player with the area. Store in the storage unit 12. The predetermined condition for newly associating the attribute information with the area is not limited to the above-described condition, and any condition can be adopted, for example, when the player wins the NPC.

  Preferably, the event processing unit performs processing for further acquiring a sandwiched region (intermediate region) by a player who has acquired two regions so as to sandwich a region occupied by another player.

  Specifically, when the event processing unit 17 newly associates the attribute information with the region p selected by the player, the other region q associated with the same attribute information as the region p moves along the axis on the field. Then, it is determined whether or not it exists apart from the region p. When the region q exists apart from the region p, the event processing unit 17 determines whether or not attribute information different from the region p is associated with the intermediate region sandwiched between the regions p and q along the axis. judge. Here, the intermediate region is all the regions existing between the two regions along the axis. When the attribute information different from the region p is associated with the intermediate region, the event processing unit 17 newly associates the same attribute information with the region p in the intermediate region and stores it in the storage unit 12. The event processing unit 17 performs the above-described processing for each axis on the field that passes through the selected region p.

  When the battle ends, for example, when a predetermined time has elapsed since the start of the special battle, the win / loss determination unit 18 calculates at least one of the number of areas associated with each attribute information and the total area. The win / loss determination unit 18 determines win / loss of a plurality of players based on the calculation result. For example, the win / loss determination unit 18 determines that the player who has the same attribute information as the attribute information having the largest calculated number or total area has won. Alternatively, the win / loss determination unit 18 may determine win / loss based on both the calculated number and the total area.

  The control unit 19 controls the overall operation of the information processing apparatus 10. For example, the control unit 19 causes the display unit 16 to display and update various game screens as the game progresses. Moreover, the control part 19 performs the whole process for progressing a normal battle or a special battle. In addition, the control unit 19 can automatically operate at least some of the plurality of players determined by the player determination unit 13 in the special battle.

  Preferably, the control unit 19 increases the cost points set in each area of the field in accordance with an increase in the elapsed time of the game (special battle). Preferably, the control unit 19 increases the difficulty level of the event set in each area of the field in accordance with an increase in the game elapsed time. Increasing the difficulty of the event is performed by strengthening a parameter that contributes to the battle, such as NPC physical strength, attack power, or defense power.

  Preferably, when the event processing unit 17 newly associates the attribute information with the area, the control unit 19 changes the cost point of the area based on the attribute information of the area and stores it in the storage unit 12.

  Specifically, the control unit 19 acquires attribute information of a region newly associated with attribute information from the storage unit 12. The control unit 19 increases cost points corresponding to attribute information different from the attribute information of the area. For example, the cost point corresponding to the attribute information different from the attribute information of the area is set to a value (for example, 20 points) larger than the cost point (for example, 10 points) set by the field determination unit 15. Moreover, the control part 19 reduces the cost point corresponding to the attribute information same as the attribute information of the said area | region. For example, the cost point corresponding to the same attribute information as the attribute information of the area is set to a value (for example, 5 points) smaller than the cost point (for example, 10 points) set by the field determination unit 15.

  Preferably, when the player designates at least one of a plurality of areas and uses a predetermined game medium, the control unit 19 changes the cost point of the designated area. The game medium is an item in the game, for example. The cost points increase or decrease depending on the type of game media used. Alternatively, the cost point may be set to a value determined according to the type of game media used. The variation of the cost point due to the use of the game medium is applied to the cost point of the region corresponding to at least one attribute information designated by the player. A predetermined release condition may be set for the fluctuation of the cost point due to the use of the game medium. For example, when a predetermined time elapses from the time when the game medium is used, fluctuations in cost points due to use of the game medium are eliminated.

  Next, the game screen displayed on the display unit 16 will be described. Hereinafter, a case where there are four players associated with different attribute information A to D will be described. Here, it is assumed that the attribute information A is associated with the player operated by the user.

  FIG. 6 shows a basic screen 26 for performing a special battle. The basic screen 26 includes a field display area 27, a remaining time display area 28, and an information sharing area 29.

  The field display area 27 is an area for displaying the field determined by the field determination unit 15.

  The remaining time display area 28 is an area for displaying the remaining time up to the point in time at which the winning or losing of the special battle is determined.

  The information sharing area 29 is an area for displaying information shared by players excluding players associated with predetermined attribute information. The shared information is, for example, a message or image written in a chat format. In the present embodiment, the information sharing area 29 includes a plurality of tabs 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d. In each tab, attribute information of players sharing information is defined. When one tab is selected by the user, information shared by the players associated with the attribute information defined in the selected tab is displayed.

  For example, attribute information A is associated with the tab 30a shown in FIG. When the tab 30a is selected, the display is switched to information shared by players associated with the attribute information A. In other words, the display is switched to information shared by players excluding the players associated with the attribute information B, C, and D. Similarly, attribute information A and B are associated with the tab 30b. The tab 30c is associated with attribute information A and C. Attribute information A and D are associated with the tab 30d.

  FIG. 7 shows a state in which the information display area 31 is displayed superimposed on the basic screen 26 shown in FIG. The information display area 31 is displayed when, for example, the user selects and presses one area in the field display area 27 for a long time. The information display area 31 is an area for displaying information related to the selected area.

  The information regarding the area includes, for example, a score integrated value, an update time, and a cost in association with each attribute information. The score integrated value is an integrated value of damage given to the NPC in the area by all players associated with the corresponding attribute information. The update time indicates the time when the score integrated value is updated. The cost indicates a cost point used for the player associated with the corresponding attribute information. Preferably, the information regarding the area further includes information indicating an increase / decrease in cost due to the change and information indicating a remaining time until the change is eliminated, for example, when the cost is changed due to use of a predetermined game medium.

  Here, it is assumed that the area a3 selected in FIG. 7 is occupied by the player with which the attribute information A is associated. In such a case, the cost point corresponding to the attribute information A is reduced (for example, 5 points) as compared with the cost point (for example, 10 points) set by the field determination unit 15, and the cost point corresponding to the other attribute information is reduced. Increases (eg, 20 points). Further, as described above, the cost point can be changed by using a predetermined medium. For example, in the information related to the area a3 included in the information display area 31 shown in FIG. 8, the cost corresponding to the attribute information A is 5 points. The cost corresponding to the attribute information B is 20 points. In addition, the cost corresponding to the attribute information C is reduced from 20 points to 15 points by using a predetermined medium that reduces the cost points by 5 points, for example. Further, the cost corresponding to the attribute information D is increased from 20 points to 999 points by using a predetermined medium in which the cost points are set to 999 points, for example.

  FIG. 9 shows an NPC battle screen for the user to battle NPC in the event processing set in the area. The NPC battle screen includes an NPC icon 32, a game medium display area 33, and a damage display area 34.

  The NPC icon 32 is an image indicating an NPC that a player operated by the user battles.

  The game medium display area 33 is an area for displaying a game medium used for a battle with an NPC. In the game medium display area 33 shown in FIG. 6, images of a plurality of cards (card01 to card07) owned by the user are displayed. For example, when the user taps the image of each card, the NPC is damaged.

  The damage display area 34 is an area for displaying an integrated value of damage that the player operated by the user gives to the NPC. In the damage display area 34, an arbitrary display method such as a numerical value display or an indicator display can be employed.

  Next, the progress of the game (special battle) according to the present embodiment will be specifically described.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating the state of the field at the start of the special battle. As shown in FIG. 10, the player (player A) associated with the attribute information A occupies the area d4. The player (player B) associated with the attribute information B occupies the area d1. The player (player C) associated with the attribute information C occupies the area a4. A player (player D) associated with the attribute information D occupies the area a1.

  As the battle progresses, as shown in FIG. 11, the player A challenges the event in the area d2 and acquires (occupies) the area d2. Similarly, the player B has acquired the area c2, and the player D has acquired the area b2.

  As the battle progresses, the player A has acquired the area a2 as shown in FIG. Here, two areas a2 and d2 occupied by the player A are separated from each other along the horizontal axis 35 determined by the field determination unit 15. Further, other attribute information (attribute information B, D) excluding attribute information A is associated with the areas b2, c2 existing between the areas a2, d2. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 13, the attribute information A is newly associated with the areas b2 and c2 existing between the areas a2 and d2.

  As the battle progresses, the player B has acquired the area b3 as shown in FIG. Here, along the axis 36 in the lower right direction determined by the field determination unit 15, two regions b3 and d1 occupied by the player B are present apart from each other. Also, other attribute information (attribute information A) excluding attribute information B is associated with the area c2 existing between the areas b3 and d1. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 15, the attribute information B is newly associated with the region c2 existing between the regions b3 and d1.

  Next, the operation of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  First, the player determination unit 13 determines a plurality of players participating in the special battle, associates attribute information with each player, and stores them in the storage unit 12 (step S100).

  Next, the point giving unit 14 gives a predetermined value to each player and stores it in the storage unit 12 (step S101).

  Next, the control part 19 displays the basic screen 26 on the display part 16 (step S102).

  Then, the control part 19 performs the process (progress process) which advances a battle | competition (step S103).

  Then, when the process of step S103 ends, the win / loss determination unit 18 determines the win / loss of the plurality of players (step S104).

  Next, a specific example of processing executed by the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment in step S103 illustrated in FIG. 16 will be described with reference to the flowchart in FIG.

  First, for example, the control unit 19 determines whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed since the start of this process (step S200). When the predetermined time has elapsed (step S200-Yes), the process proceeds to step S104 shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, when the predetermined time has not elapsed (No at Step S200), the control unit 19 determines whether or not an area on the field has been selected by any player (Step S201). When the area is not selected (step S201-No), the process returns to step S200.

  On the other hand, when the region is selected (step S201-Yes), the event processing unit 17 determines whether or not the player who has selected the region has points that are equal to or higher than the cost points of the selected region (step S201). S202). If the player does not have points (step S202-No), the process returns to step S200.

  On the other hand, if the player has points (step S202—Yes), the event processing unit 17 subtracts the cost points from the points of the player and stores them in the storage unit 12, and the event in the selected area. The process is executed (step S203). In the event processing, for example, a battle between the player and the NPC is performed.

  Subsequently, the event processing unit 17 determines whether or not the attribute information of the player is newly associated with the area based on the processing result of the event in step S203 (step S204). For example, when the event processing result does not satisfy a predetermined condition, the event processing unit 17 determines not to perform association. If it is determined not to perform the association (step S204-No), the process returns to step S200.

  On the other hand, the event processing unit 17 determines to perform the association when the processing result of the event satisfies a predetermined condition, for example. When it is determined that the association is to be performed (step S204—Yes), the event processing unit 17 newly associates the attribute information of the player with the area and stores the attribute information in the storage unit 12 (step S205).

  Next, based on the attribute information of the area newly associated with the attribute information in step S205, the control unit 19 changes the cost point of the area and stores it in the storage unit 12 (step S206).

  Next, the event processing unit 17 separates another region q associated with the same attribute information as the region p newly associated with the attribute information in step S205 away from the region p along a predetermined axis in the field. It is determined whether or not it exists (step S207). If the area q does not exist apart from the area p (No at Step S207), the process returns to Step S200.

  On the other hand, when the region q exists apart from the region p (step S207—Yes), the event processing unit 17 sets the region p in the intermediate region sandwiched between the two regions p and q along the axis in step S207. It is determined whether or not different attribute information is associated (step S208). When attribute information different from the region p is not associated with at least one region included in the intermediate region (No in step S208), the process returns to step S200.

  On the other hand, when attribute information different from the region p is associated with the intermediate region (step S208—Yes), the event processing unit 17 adds the region p and the region p to all the regions existing between the two regions p and q. The same attribute information is newly associated and stored in the storage unit 12 (step S209).

  And the control part 19 fluctuates the cost point of each area | region based on the attribute information of each area | region which newly associated attribute information in step S209, and memorize | stores it in the memory | storage part 12 (step S210).

  As described above, according to the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, attribute information is associated with an area based on the event processing result of the area selected by the player. Based on at least one of the number of areas associated with each attribute information and the total area, winning / losing of a plurality of players in the competitive game is determined. In this way, the user can improve the strategy of the game because the battle proceeds in consideration of two different factors such as capture of an event such as a battle with an NPC and acquisition of an area on the field.

  Further, when the points held by the player are equal to or higher than the cost points of the selected area, the information processing apparatus 10 subtracts the cost points from the points and executes the event of the area. Here, the value of the region for the player varies depending on, for example, the ease of acquiring the region (the difficulty of the event) or the area of the region. Here, by setting the cost point as a new value of the area for the player, the user selects the area in consideration of the cost point, so that the strategy of the game can be further improved.

  In addition, when the attribute information of the player is newly associated with the area p selected by the player, the information processing apparatus 10 displays the other area q associated with the same attribute information as the area p as a predetermined axis in the field. Whether or not it exists apart from the region p. When the region q exists apart from the region p, the information processing apparatus 10 determines whether or not attribute information different from the region p is associated with the intermediate region sandwiched between the regions p and q. When attribute information different from the region p is associated with the intermediate region, the information processing apparatus 10 newly associates the same attribute information with the region p with the intermediate region. In this way, when a player uses a newly acquired area to sandwich an area occupied by another player, the player can further acquire the sandwiched area, so that the strategy when the player selects the area can be further improved. It is.

  In addition, the information processing apparatus 10 assigns a cost point larger than the cost point set in the first area where other areas exist on both sides along at least one axis in the field to the second area other than the first area. Set to the area. In this way, a large cost point is set in the second region that is highly valuable to the player without being sandwiched between regions occupied by other players. In this way, the player selects a region in consideration of the value of the region and cost points, so that the strategy of the game can be further improved.

  Further, as described above, the player can efficiently acquire a region by sandwiching a region occupied by another player using the newly acquired region. For this reason, it is conceivable that none of the players will attempt to acquire an area at the beginning of the game. Here, as the elapsed time of the game increases, the cost points set in each area increase, forming the merit of acquiring the area at the beginning of the game and improving the aggressiveness of the player at the beginning of the game It is. Moreover, the same effect is acquired by increasing the difficulty of the event set to each area | region according to the increase in the elapsed time of a game.

  Further, when the attribute information is newly associated with the area, the information processing apparatus 10 varies the cost point of the area based on the attribute information of the area. In this way, as described below, the player's aggressiveness in the early stage of the game can be improved by adding a new merit for the player to acquire the area.

  For example, it is more advantageous for a player to acquire an area owned by another player than an area that no player owns. For this reason, it is conceivable that none of the players will attempt to acquire an area at the beginning of the game. Here, when a player acquires an area, cost points used for other players are increased. In this way, it is possible to form a merit of acquiring an area that no player owns before other players, and to improve the player's aggressiveness in the beginning of the game. Further, when a player acquires an area, cost points used for the player are reduced. In this way, the player who has acquired the area can easily select the area again and further increase the score integrated value. For this reason, it is possible to form an advantage of acquiring an area that no player owns before other players, and to improve the player's aggressiveness in the early stage of the game.

  Further, when a predetermined game medium is used, the information processing apparatus 10 changes the cost point of the designated area. In this way, the player can, for example, reduce the cost points of the area he wants to acquire, or increase the cost points of the area he wants to block acquisition by other players, and can further improve the strategy of the game.

  Further, in a battle by a plurality of players, the player may want to share information only with a specific player according to the battle situation. For example, when the number of areas occupied by the player associated with the attribute information D is the largest, for example, the player may secretly request cooperation from another player. Since the information processing apparatus 10 displays information shared by players except at least players associated with predetermined attribute information, the information processing apparatus 10 requests other players to cooperate without being known to the player associated with the attribute information D, for example. For example, communication between players regarding various strategies becomes possible.

  Although the present invention has been described based on the drawings and examples, it should be noted that those skilled in the art can easily make various modifications and corrections based on the present disclosure. Therefore, it should be noted that these variations and modifications are included in the scope of the present invention. For example, the functions included in each means, each step, etc. can be rearranged so that there is no logical contradiction, and a plurality of means, steps, etc. can be combined or divided into one. .

  The field shape may be, for example, a circular or polygonal field. For example, FIG. 18 shows an example of a circular field, and FIG. 19 shows an example of a hexagonal field. In these fields, the area per region varies. By using these fields, the interest of the game can be further improved. For example, when winning or losing is determined based on the total area of a region, the importance of a region with a large area increases. On the other hand, when winning / losing is determined based on the number of regions, the importance of regions that are unlikely to be changed by the attributes of other regions increases even if the region is small. In this way, the user needs to plan a strategy according to the shape of the field, and the interest of the game can be improved. In addition, the shape of each region included in the field may be an arbitrary shape such as a circle or a polygon.

  Three-dimensional fields and regions can also be used. In such a case, the winning / losing determining unit 18 determines the winning / losing of a plurality of players based on, for example, at least one of the number of areas and the total volume associated with each attribute information.

  The event that the player challenges may be, for example, a puzzle game or a quiz game. The event may be a game that is executed without using a game medium.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the information processing apparatus 10 that executes a game has been described. However, the communication system may include a terminal device and a server device, and may be configured as a communication system that executes a battle game. In such a case, for example, each component of the information processing apparatus 10 includes at least one of the terminal device and the server device.

  Moreover, in order to function as the information processing apparatus 10 according to the above-described embodiment, an information processing apparatus such as a computer or a mobile phone can be suitably used. Such an information processing apparatus stores a program describing processing contents for realizing each function of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the embodiment in a storage unit of the information processing apparatus, and the CPU of the information processing apparatus performs the processing. This can be realized by reading and executing the program.
