  Hereinafter, examples of embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Various constituent elements in the embodiments described below can be appropriately combined within a range in which no contradiction occurs. Moreover, the content described as an example of a certain embodiment may be omitted in other embodiments. The contents of operations and processes not related to the characteristic part of each embodiment may be omitted. Furthermore, the order of the various processes constituting the various flows described below is in no particular order as long as no contradiction occurs in the processing contents.

[First Embodiment]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of a game system 100 corresponding to at least one of the embodiments of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 100 includes a single terminal device (game terminal device) 20 used by a user (player). In FIG. 1, a configuration of a terminal device 20 </ b> A that is an example of a configuration of the terminal device (computer device) 20 is illustrated. Further, the configuration of the game system 100 is not limited to this. For example, a user terminal device may be connected to a server device (video game processing server) via a communication network, and a video game service may be provided from the server device to the terminal device.

  The game system 100 has various functions for executing a video game in which a player (user) and an enemy battle each other (a battle game) using a plurality of game media in a battle field. In the battle game of the example of the present embodiment, win / loss is determined based on the state of the determination object set for each of the player and the enemy. More specifically, the player and the enemy win by making a predetermined state by attacking the determination object protected by the opponent before the opponent.

  The battle field includes an arrangement area including a plurality of player arrangement areas and a plurality of enemy arrangement areas. In the competitive game, a hand composed of a predetermined number of game media is prepared for each player and enemy. The player operates the operation unit of the terminal device 20 to select a game medium from the hand, and places a player object corresponding to the selected game medium in an unplaced player placement area. The arrangement can be executed in exchange for the consumption of the game value held by the player. Note that it is not possible to additionally place a player object in an already placed player placement area where a player object is already placed. Also, in the enemy placement area, an enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand is placed in the same manner as the player.

  In the battle game of the example of the present embodiment, the player object and the enemy object arranged in each arrangement area are caused to perform a predetermined action including an attack. Further, the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission condition are permitted to attack the opponent's determination object.

  The permission condition includes the presence of an unallocated arrangement area on the opponent side. In the player placement area, the placement of the player object is canceled based on the state of the placed player object. By this cancellation, the player arrangement area is changed from the arrangement state to the non-arrangement state. Similarly, in the enemy placement area, the placement of the enemy object is canceled based on the state of the placed enemy object.

  For example, when there is an unarranged enemy arrangement area, the player object is allowed to attack the enemy determination object. The player is determined to win by attacking the enemy determination object prior to the player's determination object and bringing it into a predetermined state (for example, the cumulative number of attacks received is seven).

  Therefore, in a competitive game, an object corresponding to a game medium is arranged in its own arrangement area while taking into consideration the amount of possession of its own game value, and an opponent arrangement object is created so that an unarranged arrangement area is generated. Perform attacks. When an unplaced placement area occurs in the opponent, the determination object can be attacked quickly while the unplaced state continues. On the other hand, if an unplaced placement area occurs in itself, the game medium is again selected from the hand and the object is placed. In this case, it is also one of the strategies to preserve the game value so that an object can be quickly arranged when an unarranged arrangement area occurs in itself.

  In addition, the battle game of the example of this embodiment may be in any form of a player versus player or a player versus CPU (terminal device). That is, the “enemy” that is the opponent of the player is either another player or a CPU (terminal device).

  The terminal device 20 is managed by a player who plays a video game. For example, a terminal capable of playing a video game such as a stationary game device, a personal computer, a mobile phone terminal, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), or a portable game device. Configured by the device.

  In addition, the terminal device 20 displays an operation device (operation unit) for executing a video game, a storage unit such as a hard disk drive, a control unit configured by a CPU for executing a game and generating a game image, and a game image. The display device (display unit) and the like are provided, but since it has a general configuration, detailed description thereof is omitted. Further, in the terminal device 20, software (game program) for executing a video game and controlling the progress of the game is stored in the storage unit.

  Next, the configuration of the terminal device 20A that is an example of the configuration of the terminal device 20 will be described. In the terminal device 20 </ b> A, the control unit executes the game program stored in the storage unit, whereby the determination unit 31, the management unit 32, the field generation unit 33, and the arrangement control unit 34 for controlling the progress of the video game of the battle (game). And the battle control part 35 is provided at least.

  The determination unit 31 determines the winning or losing of the battle game based on the state of the determination object set for each of the player and the enemy. As described above, if the enemy determination object is attacked and enters a predetermined state prior to the player's determination object, it is determined that the player has won. The management unit 32 manages the number of game values held by the player and the enemy. The quantity of game value is stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20A, for example.

  The field generation 33 generates a battle field having an arrangement area. The arrangement area includes a plurality of player arrangement areas and a plurality of enemy arrangement areas. Information for generating a battle field is included in, for example, game data. The placement control unit 34 places the player object corresponding to the game medium selected by the player through the operation unit from the player's hand in the unplaced player placement area by consuming the game value of the player. Also. The placement control unit 34 places an enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand in the unplaced enemy placement area. Furthermore, the arrangement control unit 34 cancels the arrangement of the arrangement area of the player object and the enemy object based on the state of the player object and the enemy object.

  The battle control unit 35 causes the player object and the enemy object arranged in the arrangement area to perform a predetermined action including an attack. Also, the battle control unit 35 controls the progress of the battle by allowing the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission conditions to attack the opponent's determination object.

  Next, the operation of the game system 100 (system 100) of this embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating an example of battle progress processing executed by the system 100. In the battle progress process in this example, a battle game progress process is performed between the player and the enemy using a plurality of game media in the battle field. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20A executes the battle progress process will be described as an example.

  The battle progress process of this example is executed, for example, when the battle game is started. For example, it is executed when a start condition of a battle game is satisfied, such as when a player starts a battle operation.

  In the battle progress process, the terminal device 20A generates a battle field (step S10). Next, the terminal device 20A performs a player placement process A (steps S11 to S14). First, the terminal device 20A determines whether or not there is a placement operation from the player (step S11). The placement operation includes, for example, an operation in which the player operates the operation unit, selects a game medium from the hand, and designates the position of the placement area where the player object corresponding to the selected game medium is placed.

  When it is determined that there is no placement operation (step S11: NO), the terminal device 20A ends the placement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15. On the other hand, when it is determined that there has been a placement operation (step S11: YES), the terminal device 20A determines whether or not the designated player placement area is not placed (step S12). For example, the terminal device 20A may determine whether or not the terminal device 20A is not allocated with reference to the area management table. The area management table includes information on the placement object for each placement area, and the placement object information is updated when the object is placed. The area management table may be stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20A. If it is determined that the arrangement has already been made (step S12: NO), the terminal device 20A ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15. That is, the placement operation is not accepted.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that it has not been placed (step S12: YES), the terminal device 20A determines whether or not the game value possessed by the player can be consumed (step S13). Specifically, the determination is made based on the current value of the game value of the player stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20A and the current consumption.

  When it is determined that the consumption is not possible (step S13: NO), the terminal device 20A ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15. That is, the placement operation is not accepted. On the other hand, if it is determined that it can be consumed (step S13: YES), the terminal device 20A places a player object corresponding to the game medium based on the placement operation (step S14). Specifically, a player object corresponding to the game medium selected by the player is arranged in the designated player arrangement area. In addition, the game value held by the player is subtracted in exchange for the arrangement. Note that the terminal device 20A may update the area management table (arranged object) based on, for example, information on the newly placed player object in the process of step S14.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20A performs an enemy (opposition opponent) placement process B (step S15). In the placement process B, similarly to the placement process A, the placement process of the enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand in the enemy placement area is performed. For example, when the enemy is not the other player but the terminal device 20A (CPU), the placement process B is performed based on the placement operation of the terminal device 20A. When the enemy is another player (another terminal device), the placement process B may be performed based on the placement operation information received from the other terminal device via the communication unit.

  Next, the terminal device 20A performs permission setting (step S16). As described above, when there is an unarranged enemy placement area, the terminal device 20A performs a permission setting for an attack on the enemy determination object with respect to the player object. Further, when there is an unallocated player arrangement area, the terminal device 20A performs a permission setting for an attack on the determination object of the player with respect to the enemy object. For example, the terminal device 20A may perform permission setting by referring to an area management table (arrangement object) and specifying an unallocated arrangement area. In this case, in the area management table, permission setting information may be stored in association with the player object and the enemy object. Note that the permission setting need not be set for all player objects (enemy objects), but may be set at least partially.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20A performs a battle process (step S17). In the battle process, for example, a predetermined action including an attack is performed on the player object and the enemy object arranged in the player arrangement area and the enemy arrangement area. That is, the player object and the enemy object are caused to fight each other. Further, in the battle process, the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission condition (permission setting) are caused to perform an attack action on the determination object of the opponent. Furthermore, in the battle process, the state of the determination object is also updated. For example, the cumulative number of attacks received by the determination object is counted.

  The action of each object may be performed by the terminal device 20A based on information such as the attack power of each object without accepting an operation instruction from the player. Command). Further, in the battle process, for example, various parameters such as life force associated with each object are also updated based on the attack received.

  Further, in the battle process, the arrangement is also released based on the state of the player object and the enemy object. For example, when the vitality of the player object and the enemy object is equal to or lower than a predetermined value (for example, vitality = 0), the object is determined to have been defeated and released from the arrangement area. In this case, unplaced information may be set as the placement object in the corresponding placement area of the area management table.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20A determines whether or not winning or losing has been determined based on the state of the determination object (step S18). For example, when the cumulative number of attacks received by the determination object reaches a predetermined value (for example, 7 times), the winning / losing is determined as a predetermined state. If it is determined that winning or losing has not been determined (step S18: NO), the terminal device 20A returns to the process of step S11. Further, when it is determined that winning or losing has been determined (step S18: YES), the terminal device 20A ends the battle progress process.

  As described above, as one aspect of the first embodiment, the terminal device 20A includes the determination unit 31, the management unit 32, the field generation unit 33, the arrangement control unit 34, and the battle control unit 35. If the placement area of the opponent is not placed, an attack on the judgment object used for the win / loss judgment is not permitted. Therefore, the player will consider a strategy that can make the placement area of the opponent unplaced. In addition, when the player's placement area is not placed, the player will also consider a strategy for preserving the game value so that it can be placed immediately. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy while maintaining a basic battle method in which a battle is performed using a virtual game medium.

  In the example of the first embodiment described above, the terminal device 20A executes the game program to control the progress of the game, but is not particularly limited to this. Instead of the terminal device 20A, the server device may include at least the determination unit 31, the management unit 32, the field generation unit 33, the arrangement control unit 34, and the battle control unit 35.

  The server device includes a storage unit such as a hard disk drive (not shown), a control unit configured with a CPU, and the like. In addition, the server device controls the progress of the video game in the same manner as the terminal device 20 </ b> A by causing the control unit to execute the above-described game program stored in the storage unit. The server device includes a general configuration for controlling the progress of the video game, such as a control unit and a communication unit, but detailed description thereof is omitted here.

  The server device does not execute a video game unlike the terminal device 20A. The server device includes, for example, a communication unit connected to an Internet line (communication network), and communicates with a terminal device that executes a video game. The server device receives an operation signal (operation information) or the like from the player (terminal device), and transmits information related to the game progress (image information or the like) to the terminal device. A plurality of server devices may cooperate to execute the game program, and the server device and terminal device may cooperate to execute the game program (control the progress of the game).

  FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an example of operations of the server device and the terminal device when the server device executes the battle progress process illustrated in FIG. 2.

  In the battle progress process, the server device generates a battle field (step S30). In addition, the server device transmits image information including information on the generated battle field to the terminal device. The terminal device outputs (displays on the display unit) a game image based on the received image information (step S40). Next, the server device acquires operation information of the operation unit by the player (step S41) and transmits it to the server device.

  Next, the server device performs player placement processing A (steps S31 to S34). First, the server device determines whether or not there is a placement operation from the player (step S31). If it is determined that there is no placement operation (step S31: NO), the server device ends the placement process A and proceeds to the process of step S35. On the other hand, when it is determined that there has been a placement operation (step S31: YES), the server device determines whether or not the designated player placement area is not placed (step S32).

  If it is determined that the arrangement has already been made (step S32: NO), the server device ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S35. On the other hand, if it is determined that it has not been placed (step S32: YES), the server device determines whether or not the game value possessed by the player can be consumed (step S33).

  If it is determined that the consumption is not possible (step S33: NO), the server device ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S35. On the other hand, if it is determined that it can be consumed (step S33: YES), the server device arranges the player object corresponding to the game medium based on the arrangement operation (step S34).

  Thereafter, the server device performs an enemy (opposition opponent) placement process B (step S35). In the placement process B, similarly to the placement process A, the placement process of the enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand in the enemy placement area is performed. For example, when the enemy is a server device (CPU) instead of another player, the placement process B is performed based on the placement operation of the server device. When the enemy is another player (another terminal device), the placement process B may be performed based on the placement operation information received from the other terminal device via the communication unit.

  Next, the server device performs permission setting (step S36) and performs battle processing (step S37). Thereafter, the server device determines whether or not winning or losing has been determined based on the state of the determination object (step S38). If it is determined that winning or losing has not been determined (step S38: NO), the server apparatus returns to the process of step S31. If it is determined that the win / loss has been determined (step S38: YES), the server device ends the battle progress process.

  Note that the server device periodically transmits image information corresponding to the execution of each process of steps S34 to S37 to the terminal device.

  The “battle field” in the example of the first embodiment described above means a virtual battle space generated in the game space (virtual space). The “hand” is a plurality of game media owned by the player and the enemy, and means game media that can be used in a battle game. For example, the game media constituting the hand may be selected by the player and the enemy from a plurality of game media before the start of the battle game.

  Note that the number of game media constituting the player's hand and the enemy's hand may not be the same. Further, when the player object (enemy object) corresponding to the game medium is arranged in the arrangement area in the processes of steps S14 and S15, the selected game medium may or may not be deleted from the hand. When deleting, another game medium may be replenished to the hand.

  The “game medium” in the example of the first embodiment described above is, for example, a virtual card, a character, an avatar, a piece of a shogi game, or the like, and is not particularly limited as long as it is an object in the game.

  The “player object” in the example of the first embodiment described above is an object associated with the game medium of the player, and means an object arranged in the player arrangement area. For example, when the game medium is a virtual card and a character such as a warrior is associated with each card, the character arranged in the player arrangement area corresponds to the player object. Alternatively, each card may be associated with a unit composed of a plurality of characters. For example, when the selected game medium is arranged in the player arrangement area as it is, the game medium arranged in the arrangement area becomes the player object. Specifically, when the game medium itself is a character and the character is placed in the player placement area, the character corresponds to the player object. The “enemy object” is the same as the “player object”.

  The “game value” in the example of the first embodiment described above is numerical information, for example, the quantity of items. Further, for example, it may be an actual money billing amount or the number of credits. The game value may be managed at least during the execution of one battle game from the start to the end of the battle game. For example, the game value possessed by the player and the enemy may be set to a predetermined amount (initial value) at the start of the battle game, and reset to 0 at the end of the battle game. Note that the “consumption amount” of the game value with respect to the arrangement of the objects may be a fixed value or a value corresponding to the type of game medium.

  The “determination object” in the example of the first embodiment described above is not particularly limited as long as it is an object that is determined to win or lose, and includes, for example, a castle and a crystal shield.

  The “battle game” in the example of the first embodiment described above may be configured such that, for example, a plurality of players form a team (group) and battle against other teams.

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a terminal device 20B that is an example of the terminal device 20. As illustrated in FIG. In this example, the terminal device 20B includes at least a determination unit 31, a management unit 32, a field control unit 33, an arrangement control unit 34, a battle control unit 35B, and a first time measuring unit 36B.

  The determination unit 31 determines the winning or losing of the battle game based on the state of the determination object set for each of the player and the enemy. The management unit 32 manages the number of game values held by the player and the enemy. The field generation 33 generates a battle field having an arrangement area including a plurality of player arrangement areas and a plurality of enemy arrangement areas.

  The placement control unit 34 places the player object corresponding to the game medium selected by the player through the operation unit from the player's hand in the unplaced player placement area by consuming the game value of the player. Also. The placement control unit 34 places an enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand in the placement area that has not been placed. Furthermore, the arrangement control unit 34 cancels the arrangement of the arrangement area of the player object and the enemy object based on the state of the player object and the enemy object.

  The battle control unit 35B causes the player object and the enemy object arranged in the arrangement area to perform a predetermined action including an attack. In addition, the battle control unit 35B controls the progress of the battle by allowing the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission conditions to attack the opponent's determination object. In the example of the present embodiment, the battle control unit 35B causes the player object to perform a predetermined action based on the action execution operation by the player. The action execution operation is an operation of the operation unit of the player for causing the player object to perform a predetermined action. For example, an action execution permission operation, an action type selection (command selection) operation, and an attack target designation operation are included.

  For example, a predetermined action is performed on a player object for which an operation permission operation has been performed. In addition, a predetermined action based on the command selection is executed on the player object on which an action type selection (command selection) operation has been performed. The action type includes, for example, an attack with a weapon, an attack with a special technique, and use of a recovery item owned by the user. In addition, an attack on the designated enemy object is executed on the player object on which the attack target (enemy object) is designated.

  In addition, the battle control unit 35B of the example of the present embodiment permits the player object and the enemy object that have passed the predetermined time to execute the predetermined action. The predetermined time is a time required until the next predetermined action becomes executable after the execution of the one predetermined action, and is an elapsed time since the execution of the one predetermined action. That is, the player object and the enemy object cannot execute the next predetermined action until a predetermined time has elapsed since the execution of the first predetermined action.

  Therefore, for example, even if an attack on the opponent's determination object is permitted, if the predetermined time has not elapsed, the player object and the enemy object are not permitted to perform the predetermined action, so the determination object Attacks cannot be performed. Therefore, it is important information for the player to grasp the state of passage of the predetermined time of the player object in order to advantageously advance the battle game.

  The first time measuring unit 36B measures a time from when each player object and enemy object execute a predetermined action until a predetermined time determined for each of the player object and enemy object elapses.

  Note that the information regarding the action execution operation and the elapse of the predetermined time described above may be stored in the area management table in association with the player object and the enemy object (arrangement object) for each arrangement area, for example.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a battle progress process executed by the system 100. In the battle progress process in this example, a battle game progress process is performed between the player and the enemy using a plurality of game media in the battle field. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20B executes the battle progress process will be described as an example. Note that the flowchart showing the operation of the server device is omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding repeated explanation.

  The battle progress process of this example is executed, for example, when the battle game is started. For example, it is executed when a start condition of a battle game is satisfied, such as when a player starts a battle operation.

  In the battle progress process, the terminal device 20B generates a battle field (step S10). Next, the terminal device 20B performs a player placement process A (steps S11 to S14). Thereafter, the terminal device 20B performs an enemy (opposition opponent) placement process B (step S15). Next, the terminal device 20B performs permission setting (step S16).

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20B performs the action execution setting of the player object based on the action execution operation (step S17-05B). For example, as described above, the action execution setting may be performed by updating information related to the action execution operation in the area management table.

  Next, the terminal device 20B performs battle processing (step S17-10B). In the battle process of the example of the present embodiment, among the player objects in the player placement area, the action execution operation from the player and the player object that has passed a predetermined time are caused to execute a predetermined action. In addition, a predetermined action is executed on an enemy object that has passed a predetermined time among the enemy objects in the enemy placement area. For example, the terminal device 20B may execute a predetermined action with reference to the area management table.

  Further, in the battle process, the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission condition (permission set) are caused to perform the attack action of the opponent determination object. Note that the action of the determination object can be executed when the action execution operation from the player and a predetermined time have elapsed. Furthermore, in the battle process, the state of the determination object is also updated. For example, the cumulative number of attacks received by the determination object is counted. Further, in the battle process, various parameters such as life force associated with each object are also updated. Furthermore, in the battle process, the arrangement is also released based on the state of the player object and the enemy object.

  Next, the terminal device 20B updates the elapsed time (step S17-15B). For example, the elapsed time information of the player object and the enemy object (arrangement object) for each arrangement area in the area management table is updated. In this case, a value of 0 is set (reset) as the elapsed time of the object for which the predetermined action has been executed in the process of step S17-10B.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20B determines whether or not winning or losing has been determined based on the state of the determination object (step S18). If it is determined that winning / losing has not been determined (step S18: NO), the terminal device 20B returns to the process of step S11. In addition, when it is determined that winning or losing has been determined (step S18: YES), the terminal device 20B ends the battle progress process.

  As described above, as one aspect of the second embodiment, the terminal device 20B includes the determination unit 31, the management unit 32, the field generation unit 33, the arrangement control unit 34, the battle control unit 35B, and the first time measuring unit 36B. Since it is configured, if the opponent's placement area is not placed, an attack on the judgment object used for the win / loss judgment is not permitted. Therefore, the player will consider a strategy that allows the placement area of the opponent to be unplaced. In addition, when the player's placement area is not placed, the player will also consider a strategy for preserving the game value so that it can be placed immediately. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy while maintaining a basic battle method in which a battle is performed using a virtual game medium.

  In addition, since the execution of the actions of the player object and the enemy object requires a predetermined time, the player can make an action immediately when an unplaced arrangement area occurs in the opponent. The strategy will be examined by grasping the progress of the predetermined time. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy in a battle using a virtual game medium.

  The “predetermined time” in the above-described example of the second embodiment can be arbitrarily set. For example, different times may be set according to the types of player object and enemy object. Note that the measurement of the predetermined time is not particularly limited as long as the time until the predetermined time determined for each of the player object and the enemy object elapses can be measured.

[Third Embodiment]
FIG. 6 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a terminal device 20 </ b> C that is an example of the terminal device 20. In this example, the terminal device 20C includes at least a determination unit 31, a management unit 32, a field control unit 33C, an arrangement control unit 34, and a battle control unit 35C.

  The determination unit 31 determines the winning or losing of the battle game based on the state of the determination object set for each of the player and the enemy. The management unit 32 manages the number of game values held by the player and the enemy. The field generation unit 33C generates a battle field having an arrangement area including a plurality of player arrangement areas and a plurality of enemy arrangement areas. In the example of the present embodiment, the field generation unit 33C arranges the paired player arrangement area and enemy arrangement area at positions facing each other in the battle field. It should be noted that all the player placement areas and enemy placement areas formed in the battle field need not be paired, and at least a pair of player placement areas and enemy placement areas are sufficient.

  The placement control unit 34 places the player object corresponding to the game medium selected by the player through the operation unit from the player's hand in the unplaced player placement area by consuming the game value of the player. Also. The placement control unit 34 places an enemy object corresponding to the game medium selected from the enemy hand in the placement area that has not been placed. Furthermore, the arrangement control unit 34 cancels the arrangement of the arrangement area of the player object and the enemy object based on the state of the player object and the enemy object.

  The battle control unit 35C causes the player object and the enemy object arranged in the arrangement area to perform a predetermined action including an attack. Further, the battle control unit 35C controls the progress of the battle by allowing the player object and the enemy object that satisfy the permission conditions to attack the opponent's determination object. In the permission condition of the example of the present embodiment, there is an arrangement area that is not arranged on the opponent side, and a player object or an enemy object that is arranged in the arrangement area facing the arrangement area that is not arranged. Is included.

  For example, when a certain enemy placement area is not placed, only a player object in a player placement area that is paired (facing) with a certain enemy placement area among a plurality of player objects is assigned to an enemy determination object. Attack is allowed.

  Therefore, when an unallocated player arrangement area is generated in the player, the enemy arrangement area that is confronted by, for example, intensively attacking enemy objects in the enemy arrangement area facing the non-arranged player arrangement area. It is also possible to consider a strategy that prevents the enemy object from attacking the determination object of the player. For example, this is effective when a player object has a small game value and cannot be quickly placed in an unplaced player placement area. In addition, what is necessary is just to include the facing information of the arrangement area mentioned above in game data, for example.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example of battle progress processing executed by the system 100. In the battle progress process in this example, a battle game progress process is performed between the player and the enemy using a plurality of game media in the battle field. Hereinafter, the case where the terminal device 20C executes the battle progress process will be described as an example. Note that the flowchart showing the operation of the server device is omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding repeated explanation.

  The battle progress process of this example is executed, for example, when the battle game is started. For example, it is executed when a start condition of a battle game is satisfied, such as when a player starts a battle operation.

  In the battle progress process, the terminal device 20C generates a battle field (step S10-10C). In the example of the present embodiment, as described above, the player arrangement area and the enemy arrangement area to be paired are arranged at positions facing each other in the battle field. Next, the terminal device 20C performs a player placement process A (steps S11 to S14). Thereafter, the terminal device 20C performs an enemy (opposition opponent) placement process B (step S15).

  Next, the terminal device 20C performs permission setting (step S16-10C). As described above, when there is an unarranged enemy arrangement area, the terminal device 20C sets permission to attack the enemy determination object against the player object in the player arrangement area facing the unarranged enemy arrangement area. Do. Further, when there is an unarranged player arrangement area, the terminal device 20C performs permission setting for an attack on the determination object of the player with respect to an enemy object in the enemy arrangement area facing the unarranged player arrangement area.

  For example, the terminal device 20C may specify an arrangement area that faces an unarranged arrangement area by referring to the facing information after specifying an arrangement area that is not arranged with reference to the area management table.

  Next, the terminal device 20C performs a battle process (step S17). Thereafter, the terminal device 20C determines whether or not winning or losing has been determined based on the state of the determination object (step S18). If it is determined that winning or losing has not been determined (step S18: NO), the terminal device 20C returns to the process of step S11. Further, when it is determined that winning or losing has been determined (step S18: YES), the terminal device 20C ends the battle progress process.

  As described above, as one aspect of the third embodiment, the terminal device 20C includes the determination unit 31, the management unit 32, the field generation unit 33C, the arrangement control unit 34, and the battle control unit 35C. If the placement area of the opponent is not placed, an attack on the judgment object used for the win / loss judgment is not permitted. Therefore, the player will consider a strategy that allows the placement area of the opponent to be unplaced. In addition, when the player's placement area is not placed, the player will also consider a strategy for preserving the game value so that it can be placed immediately. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy while maintaining a basic battle method in which a battle is performed using a virtual game medium.

  Further, since the permission condition includes a player object or an enemy object arranged in the arrangement area facing the non-arranged arrangement area, when the player has an unarranged player arrangement area, To consider a strategy that prevents enemy objects in the enemy placement area facing the player from attacking the player's judgment object by intensively attacking enemy objects in the enemy placement area facing the unplaced player placement area You can also. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy in the battle using the virtual game medium.

[Fourth Embodiment]
FIG. 8 is a front view showing an external appearance of a terminal device 20 </ b> D that is an example of the terminal device 20. The terminal device 20D is a mobile phone terminal (smart phone). The terminal device 20D includes a display unit 22 having a touch panel 21 and the like. The touch panel 22 is an operation unit that receives a user operation input. The display unit 22 is, for example, a liquid crystal display device, and displays a game image of the video game (application) in the example of the embodiment of the present invention.

  The terminal device 20C starts the game by executing an application program (game program) stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20C, and causes the display unit 22 to display a game image as illustrated in FIG. In the video game of the example of this embodiment, a battle between a player and an enemy (a battle game) is performed using a plurality of virtual cards 60 (game media) in the battle field 50. In addition, in the display part 22 of FIG. 8, the game image on which the mode of the battle | competition of the player and enemy in the battle field 50 was drawn is displayed.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the battle field 50, a player area 51A and an enemy area 51B are formed. The player area 51A is a substantially lower half area on the display screen, and includes a mana gauge 52, a crystal shield (crystal) 53A, a deck 54, a hand area 55A, arrangement areas (player arrangement areas) 56A to 58A, and the like. On the other hand, the enemy area 51B is a substantially upper half area on the display screen, and includes a crystal shield (crystal) 53B, a hand area 55B, arrangement areas (enemy arrangement areas) 56B to 58B, and the like.

  The mana gauge 52 indicates the amount of mana (in-game item) possessed by the player that is the game value. In the example of the present embodiment, the enemy mana gauge is not displayed, but may be displayed. In the example of this embodiment, the amount of mana possessed by the player and the enemy increases with time (recovers with time), and the player object PO and the enemy object EO corresponding to the card 60 in the hand are arranged (summoned). In exchange for that.

  The crystal shields 53A and 53B are player and enemy determination objects. The numbers displayed inside the crystal shields 53A and 53B are endurance and indicate the remaining number until the opponent's victory is determined. In the example of the present embodiment, the victory is determined if the durability of the opponent's crystal shields 53A and 53B is first set to 0 (predetermined state).

  The deck 54 is composed of a plurality of cards 60. The cards 60 in the deck 54 are dealt to the player's hand. The card 60 in the deck 54 is determined, for example, by the player performing an editing operation from the cards 60 owned before the start of the battle game. When the number of cards 60 in the hand decreases during the battle game, the reduced number of cards 60 are newly replenished from the deck 54 to the hand. In the example of this embodiment, enemy decks are not displayed, but may be displayed.

  In the hand areas 55A and 55B, cards 60 serving as the hand of the player and the enemy are arranged. In the example of the present embodiment, five cards 60 are set as a hand. In the player's hand area 55A, the surface of the card 60 is displayed so that the contents of the card 60 in the player's hand can be visually recognized. On the surface of the card 60, for example, the appearance of the corresponding object (character) is drawn. On the other hand, in the enemy hand area 55B, the back side of the card 60 of the enemy hand is displayed.

  In the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B, player objects PO1 to PO3 and enemy objects EO1 to EO3 corresponding to the card 60 selected from the hand are displayed. When the objects PO and EO are displayed in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B, they are already arranged. On the other hand, when the icon image of the crystal shield 53 is displayed in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B, the arrangement areas are not arranged. For example, the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B illustrated in FIG. 8 are already arranged because the player objects PO1 to PO3 and the enemy characters EO1 to EO3 are displayed. On the other hand, the enemy placement area 57B illustrated in FIG. 9C is not placed because the icon image of the crystal shield 53B is displayed.

  An ATB gauge 59 is displayed on the player objects PO1 to PO3 and the enemy objects EO1 to EO3 in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B. The ATB gauge 59 indicates the passage of a predetermined time for each object. When the ATB gauge 59 is maximized, a predetermined time has elapsed and a predetermined action can be executed. Immediately after the predetermined action is executed, the ATB gauge 59 becomes 0 (minimum value) and increases again according to the elapsed time.

  The player placement areas 56A to 58A are placed in a state of facing (facing) the enemy placement areas 56B to 58B. In the example of this embodiment, as in the third embodiment, when the facing arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B are not arranged, the opponent's crystal shields 53B and 53A are allowed to attack.

  Further, the battle field 50 has a time limit area TM. The time limit area TM indicates the remaining time until the end of one battle game. For example, 5 minutes is set as the time limit for the battle game. In the example of the present embodiment, when the durability of one of the opponent's crystal shields 53A and 53B becomes 0, or when the remaining time becomes 0 even if the durability is not 0, the battle game is played. finish.

  Next, a game playing method will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 (A) to 9 (C). FIG. 9A to FIG. 9C are diagrams illustrating an example of a game image during a battle game.

  When the battle game is started, first, five cards 60 are distributed from the deck 54 to the player's hand (hand area 55A). The player performs an operation (swipe operation) to move toward any of the display positions in the player placement areas 56A to 58A while selecting (touching) the touch panel 21 at the display position of one card 60 in the hand. As a result, the player object PO corresponding to the selected card 60 is placed (summoned) in the designated player placement area. That is, the swipe operation corresponds to the placement operation. In addition, the mana owned by the player is consumed (the mana gauge is reduced). The summoned player object PO card 60 is returned from the hand to the deck 54.

  When the player and the enemy summon all the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B, for example, a game image as shown in FIG. 9A is obtained. Note that the player does not always have to summon all the arrangement areas 56A to 58A. Summoning should take into account the amount of mana.

  Next, execution of a predetermined action will be described. In the example of the present embodiment, predetermined actions (action contents) of the player object PO and the enemy object EO are set in advance. For example, weapons and magic attacks are set. In the example of the present embodiment, the player object PO executes an attack when the player performs an action execution operation. The action execution operation in the example of the present embodiment corresponds to the attack target of the player object PO and the swipe operation for instructing the attack execution.

  For example, when causing the player object PO1 illustrated in FIG. 9B to attack the enemy object EO2, the player may perform a swipe operation to move the player object PO1 toward the enemy object EO2 while touching the player object PO1.

  In the example of the present embodiment, the attackable range of the enemy object EO of the player object PO is the adjacent enemy object EO. For example, the player object PO1 can attack the enemy objects EO1 and EO2. Further, the player object PO2 can attack the enemy objects EO1 to EO3.

  Then, when the life force becomes 0 or less due to being attacked, each object PO, EO becomes a battle impossible state and disappears (cancels) from the arrangement area. Thereby, the icon images of the crystal shields 53A and 53B are displayed in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B.

  For example, when the enemy object EO2 illustrated in FIG. 9B is in a battle impossible state, as illustrated in FIG. 9C, the icon image of the crystal shield 53B is displayed in the enemy placement area 57B. Become. In the state illustrated in FIG. 9C, the player swipes the player object PO2 toward the enemy placement area 57B (action execution operation), thereby attacking the crystal shield 53B by the player object PO2 (Crystal). Attack) is performed.

  In the example of the present embodiment, various parameters such as action content, life force, attack power, and defense power are set for the player object PO and the enemy object EO. Information such as these parameters is stored as game data in association with the card 60.

  The enemy object EO is the same as the player object PO. Further, the enemy in the example of the present embodiment may be either the CPU (terminal device 20D) or another player. In the case of another player, the configuration of the action of the enemy object EO is the same as that of the player object PO. For example, the terminal device 20D may receive the operation information from the terminal device of another player connected by peer-to-peer or the like and advance the game. When the enemy who is the opponent is the CPU (terminal device 20D), the terminal device 20D may perform a process of determining (instructing) the attack target instead of specifying the attack target by the touch operation. For example, the terminal device 20D may determine the attack target from the player objects PO that are within the attackable range. And an attack should just be performed by determination of the attack target.

  FIG. 10 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a terminal device 20 </ b> D that is an example of the terminal device 20. In this example, the terminal device 20D includes at least a determination unit 31D, a management unit 32D, a field control unit 33D, an arrangement control unit 34D, a battle control unit 35D, a first timing unit 36D, and a second timing unit 37D.

  The determination unit 31D determines the winning or losing of the battle game based on the states of the crystal shields 53A and 53B (determination objects) set for the player and the enemy. In the example of this embodiment, as described above, the determination unit 31D determines that the victory is achieved when the durability of the opponent's crystal shields 53A and 53B is first set to zero.

  The management unit 32D manages the amount of mana (game value) possessed by the player and the enemy. In the example of the present embodiment, as described above, the management unit 32D increases or decreases the amount of mana according to consumption due to recovery with time and summoning. Further, in the example of the present embodiment, the mana possession amount is managed only from the start to the end of one battle game. At the start of the battle game, an initial value is set as the mana possession amount for the player and the enemy.

  The field generation unit 33D generates a battle field 50 having an arrangement area including a plurality of player arrangement areas 56A to 58A and a plurality of enemy arrangement areas 56B to 58B. In the example of the present embodiment, the field generation unit 33D arranges the player arrangement areas 56A to 58A and the enemy arrangement areas 56B to 58B to be paired at positions facing each other in the battle field 50. Note that all the player placement areas 56A to 58A and the enemy placement areas 56B to 58B formed in the battle field 50 do not have to be paired, as long as there is at least a pair of player placement areas and enemy placement areas.

  The arrangement control unit 34D selects a player object PO corresponding to the card 60 selected by the player via the touch panel 21 (operation unit) from the player's hand composed of a predetermined number (five) of cards 60 (game media). Are placed in the unplaced player placement areas 56A to 58A by consuming the player's mana. Also. The placement control unit 34D places the enemy object EO corresponding to the card 60 selected from the enemy hand composed of a predetermined number (five) of cards 60 (game media) in the unplaced placement areas 56B to 58B. To do.

  Furthermore, the arrangement control unit 34D cancels the arrangement of the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B of the player object PO and the enemy object EO based on the states of the player object PO and the enemy object EO. In the example of the present embodiment, the placement control unit 34D cancels the placement of the player object PO and the enemy object EO whose v life force is 0 or less.

  Information relating to the arrangement of the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B described above is managed in the area management table. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of the area management table 90. In the area management table 90, an arrangement object, status, attack target, elapsed time, attack permission, and the like are registered in association with the area ID. The area ID is unique identification information set in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B. The alphabet included in the area ID is information for specifying which area is the player or the enemy. For example, the area IDs: A1 to A3 can be specified as the arrangement areas 56A to 58A on the player side. Also, the numerical information included in the area ID is information that identifies a paired (face-to-face) relationship. For example, it can be specified that the area ID: A1 is in a face-to-face relationship with the area ID: B1.

  The placement object is information for specifying the player object PO and the enemy object EO placed in the placement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B. For example, an object ID that is unique identification information set for the object is set in the placement object. In addition, when the objects PO and EO are not arranged, identification information indicating non-arrangement is set. For example, identification information indicating non-arrangement is set in the area ID: B1.

  Next, the status indicates status information of the player object PO and the enemy object EO arranged in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B. The status is a parameter such as life force, attack power, and action content associated with each object PO, EO. The vitality is reduced (updated) by being attacked. The action content is information for specifying the action to be executed. For example, identification information for specifying the action content is registered. As the status, information on the status of each card 60 is set.

  The attack target is information that identifies the objects PO and EO that perform the attack. For example, the object IDs of the objects PO and EO to be attacked are registered in the attack target. If the object ID is registered as an attack target, it is determined that an action execution operation has been performed. When there is no action execution operation, the attack target is not specified, and thus, for example, information indicating that the attack target is not set is set. When an attack is executed, the attack target is reset to unset information.

  Next, the elapsed time is information on the elapsed time since the execution of one predetermined action. An action is executed for an object whose elapsed time has passed a predetermined time. The elapsed time is reset to 0 every time one predetermined action is executed. In the attack permission, information indicating permission and prohibition of the attack of the crystal shields 53A and 53B is set. That is, permission information is set when the permission condition is satisfied, and prohibition information is set when the permission condition is not satisfied.

  In addition, as described above, the permission condition of the example of the present embodiment is that there are unallocated arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B on the opponent side, and the unallocated arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B. The player object PO or the enemy object EO arranged in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B facing to 58B.

  Next, the battle control unit 35D causes the player object PO and the enemy object EO arranged in the arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B to perform an attack that is a predetermined action. In addition, the battle control unit 35D controls the progress of the battle by allowing the player object PO and the enemy object EO that satisfy the permission conditions to attack the opponent's crystal shields 53A and 53B. In the example of the present embodiment, the battle control unit 35D causes the player object PO to perform an attack based on operation information (action execution operation) of the operation unit by the player. For example, the battle control unit 35D determines that an action execution operation has been performed when an object ID is set as an attack target in the area management table 90. In addition, the battle control unit 35D refers to the status (action content) of the area management table 90, identifies the attack content, and causes each object PO, EO to execute. Furthermore, the battle control unit 35D updates parameters such as the life force of each object PO and EO according to the execution of an attack or the like.

  In the example of the present embodiment, the action type instruction (command selection) by the player is not performed, but the instruction may be performed. The action type includes, for example, an attack with a weapon, an attack with a special technique, and use of a recovery item owned by the user.

  In the example of the present embodiment, the battle control unit 35D permits the player object PO and the enemy object EO that have passed a predetermined time to execute an attack. That is, the attack is permitted to the player object PO and the enemy object EO whose ATB gauge 59 has reached the maximum value. The battle control unit 35D may refer to the elapsed time in the area management table 90, for example. Therefore, the battle control unit 35D causes the objects PO and EO for which an attack target is set and a predetermined time has elapsed to execute an attack.

  Next, the first time measuring unit 36D measures the time from when each player object PO and enemy object EO execute a predetermined action until a predetermined time determined for each of the player object and enemy object elapses. . The second timing unit 37D measures the time from the start of the battle game until the time limit arrives.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a battle progress process executed by the system 100. In the battle progress process in this example, a battle game progress process performed by the player and the enemy using a plurality of cards 60 in the battle field 53 is performed. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20D executes the battle progress process will be described as an example. Note that the flowchart showing the operation of the server device is omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding repeated explanation. Further, although the game image display process is omitted, the game image is appropriately updated according to the progress process.

  The battle progress process of this example is executed, for example, when the battle game is started. For example, it is executed when a start condition of a battle game is satisfied, such as when a player starts a battle operation.

  In the battle progress process, the terminal device 20D generates a battle field 53 as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 (step S10-10D). Next, the terminal device 20D performs various start settings such as the start of the time limit, the setting of player and enemy mana holding amounts (initial values), and the distribution of the cards 60 from the deck 54 to the hand (step S10). -15D). The display of the time limit area TM indicating the remaining time of the time limit is appropriately updated.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20D performs a player placement process A (steps S11-10D to S14-10D). First, the terminal device 20D determines whether or not there is a placement operation from the player (step S11-10D). As described above, the placement operation corresponds to the swipe operation of moving the card 50 from the hand to the placement areas 56A to 58A while touching the card 50.

  If it is determined that there is no placement operation (step S11-10D: NO), the terminal device 20D ends the placement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15-10D. On the other hand, when it is determined that the placement operation has been performed (step S11-10D: YES), the terminal device 20D determines whether or not the player placement areas 56A to 58A designated by the swipe operation are not placed (step S12). -10D). The terminal device 20D may refer to the information on the arrangement object in the area management table 90. When it is determined that the arrangement has already been made (step S12-10D: NO), the terminal device 20D ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15-10D. That is, placement (summoning) is not accepted.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the player has not been placed (step S12-10D: YES), the terminal device 20D determines whether or not the mana (game value) possessed by the player can be consumed (step S13-10D). . Specifically, the determination is made based on the current value (held amount) of the player's mana stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20D and the consumption amount.

  If it is determined that it is not consumable (step S13-10D: NO), the terminal device 20D ends the arrangement process A and proceeds to the process of step S15-10D. That is, placement (summoning) is not accepted. On the other hand, if it is determined that it can be consumed (step S13-10D: YES), the terminal device 20D arranges the player object PO corresponding to the card 60 based on the arrangement operation (see FIG. 8 and FIG. 9). Summon) is performed (step S14-10D). Specifically, the terminal device 20D updates the area management table 90 based on information on the newly placed object PO. Further, the terminal device 20D subtracts the player's mana holding amount in exchange for the arrangement.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20D performs an enemy (opposition opponent) placement process B (step S15-10D). In the arrangement process B, as in the arrangement process A, an arrangement (summoning) of the enemy object EO corresponding to the card 60 selected from the enemy hand in the enemy arrangement areas 56B to 58B is performed.

  Next, the terminal device 20D performs permission setting (step S16-10D). Specifically, the terminal device 20D refers to the arrangement object and area ID in the area management table 90, and sets (updates) permission information and prohibition information in the attack permission of the area management table 90 according to permission conditions. Do.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20D performs action execution setting of the player object PO and the enemy object EO based on the action execution operation (step S17-05D). Specifically, as described above, the terminal device 20D updates the attack target in the area management table 90 based on the swipe operation of moving to the enemy object EO while touching the player object PO. Further, as with the player object PO, the attack target in the area management table 90 of the enemy object EO is updated. In the case of a swipe operation on the objects PO and EO for which the predetermined time has not elapsed, the update is not performed. Further, even when the swipe operation with the crystal shields 53A and 53B as an attack target and permission information is not set for the attack permission in the area management table 90, the update is not performed.

  Next, the terminal device 20D performs a battle process (step S17-10D). In the battle process of the example of the present embodiment, a predetermined action (attack) is executed on a player object for which a target of attack from the player is set and a predetermined time has elapsed among the player objects PO1 to PO3 in the player placement areas 56A to 58A. Let Similarly, predetermined actions (attack) are executed on the enemy objects EO1 to EO3.

  In the battle process, the crystal shield 53B (object ID) is set as the attack target of the area management table 90 among the player objects PO satisfying the permission conditions (permission information is set in the area management table 90). The player object is caused to execute an attack on the crystal shield 53B. Similarly, the enemy objects EO1 to EO3 are attacked.

  In the battle process, when the above attack is performed, unset information is set (reset) as an attack target of the corresponding object PO, EO (arranged object) in the area management table 90.

  Further, in the battle process, the state (endurance) of the crystal shields 53A and 53B is also updated according to the attack received. For example, the durability may be reduced by 1 by receiving one attack.

  Further, in the battle process, various parameters such as life force associated with each object are also updated. Then, the arrangement is also released based on the state (life force) of the player object PO and the enemy object EO. In order to cancel the arrangement, information indicating non-arrangement is set in the arrangement object of the area ID of the area management table 90.

  Next, the terminal device 20D updates the elapsed time (step S17-15D). Specifically, the terminal device 20D updates the information on the elapsed time of each object PO, EO (arranged object) in the area management table 90. In this case, a value of 0 is set (reset) for the elapsed time of the objects PO and EO that executed the attack in the process of step S17-10D.

  Thereafter, the terminal device 20D determines whether or not winning or losing has been determined based on the state of the crystal shields 53A and 53B and the remaining time of the time limit (step S18-10D). As described above, when the opponent's crystal shields 53A and 53B have durability of 0 or less, the victory is determined. Alternatively, winning or losing is also determined when the remaining time of the time limit is exhausted. For example, what is necessary is just to determine victory or defeat according to the magnitude of the durability of the crystal shield 53A, 53B when the remaining time runs out.

  If it is determined that winning / losing has not been determined (step S18-10D: NO), the terminal device 20D returns to the process of step S11-10D. Further, when it is determined that the victory or defeat has been determined (step S18-10D: YES), the terminal device 20D ends the battle progress process.

  As described above, as one aspect of the fourth embodiment, the terminal device 20D includes the determination unit 31D, the management unit 32D, the field generation unit 33D, the arrangement control unit 34D, the battle control unit 35D, the first time measuring unit 36D, and the first time measuring unit 36D. Since it is configured to include the two timekeeping unit 37D, an attack on the determination objects (crystal shields 53A and 53B) used for determination of victory or defeat is not permitted unless the arrangement area of the opponent is not arranged. Therefore, the player will consider a strategy that allows the opponent placement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B to be unplaced. In addition, when the player's placement areas 56A to 58A are not placed, the player will also consider a strategy for preserving the game value (mana) so that it can be placed immediately. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy while maintaining the basic battle method for performing the battle using the virtual game medium (card 60).

  Further, since the permission condition includes the objects PO and EO arranged in the facing arrangement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B, when the player arrangement area that has not been arranged occurs, A strategy that prevents the enemy object EO in the opposing enemy placement area from attacking the player's crystal shield 53A by, for example, intensively attacking the enemy object EO in the enemy placement area facing the unplaced player placement area. It can also be considered. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the strategy in the battle using the virtual game medium.

  Further, since the execution of the actions of the objects PO and EO requires a predetermined time, the player can play the player object so that the action can be performed immediately when an unplaced placement area occurs in the opponent. The strategy will be examined by grasping the elapsed state of the PO for a predetermined time. Accordingly, it is possible to further improve the strategy in a battle using a virtual game medium (card 60). In addition, in the present embodiment, since the progress state of the opponent object for a predetermined time can be visually recognized, it is possible to examine the strategy by grasping the progress state of the opponent object.

  In the example of the fourth embodiment described above, three placement areas 56A to 58A and 56B to 58B are prepared for the player and the enemy, respectively, but any configuration is possible as long as the number of placement areas is one or more. May be. The number of player and enemy placement areas may not be the same. For example, the number of arrangement areas may be set according to the level difference between the player and the enemy. Specifically, in the case of a low-level player, the number of player placement areas is made larger than the enemy placement area.

  In the example of the fourth embodiment described above, the attack of the crystal shields 53A and 53B is the objects PO and EO in the arrangement area facing the arrangement area that has not been arranged, but is not particularly limited thereto. It can be set arbitrarily.

In the example of the fourth embodiment described above, the amount of mana possessed is managed only from the start to the end of a battle game, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this. For example, you may manage over several competitive games.
