  In the conventional game system, the player cannot strengthen the character during the battle with the enemy character, and lacks convenience.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a program and a game system capable of strengthening a character held by a player during a battle with an enemy character. There is to do.

  (1) The present invention is a program for executing a battle between a plurality of characters and an enemy character, wherein an arrangement unit that arranges the plurality of characters in the character selection area, and each character arranged in the character selection area When there is an attribute setting unit for setting an attribute and a first operation input for successively selecting a plurality of characters having the same attribute from a plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area, Performing a process of causing the plurality of characters selected by the operation input to attack the enemy character according to the attack power calculated based on the parameter of each character selected by the first operation input; There was a second operation input for selecting a character satisfying a predetermined condition from among a plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area In addition, at least one character adjacent to the character selected by the second operation input is deleted from the character selection area, and selected by the second operation input according to the parameter of the deleted character. The computer is caused to function as a game processing unit for changing a character parameter, and the game processing unit is configured to start the attack when the enemy character starts an attack when there is the first operation input or the second operation input. The present invention relates to a program characterized in that when the number of remaining turns is decreased and the remaining number of turns reaches a predetermined value, the enemy character performs an attack on a character placed in the character selection area. The present invention also relates to an information storage medium that can be read by a computer and stores a program for causing the computer to function as each of the above-described units. The present invention also relates to a game system including the above-described units.

According to the present invention, when the player performs the second operation input for selecting a character that satisfies the predetermined condition among the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area, the character selected by the second operation input is displayed. Since at least one adjacent character is erased from the character selection area and the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input is changed according to the parameter of the erased character, the player can play against the enemy character. By selecting the character by the second operation input, the selected character can be strengthened, and the convenience of the player can be enhanced. Further, according to the present invention, not only when the first operation input for attacking the enemy character is performed, but also when the second operation input for strengthening the character is performed, the enemy character Since the remaining number of turns until the attack starts, the player can select whether to give priority to attacking enemy characters or strengthening the character according to the game situation. Can be increased.

  (2) In the program, the information storage medium, and the game system according to the present invention, when the game processing unit changes the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input, the selection order for the character is selected. The attack power may be calculated based on the changed parameters of the character only when the character is selected in the selection order set for the character by the first operation input.

  According to the present invention, when the player strengthens the character by the second operation input, the effect of character enhancement is generated only when the character is selected by the first operation input according to the selection order set for the character. And can play strategic gameplay under constraints.

  (3) In the program, the information storage medium, and the game system according to the present invention, the arrangement unit arranges a material character as a material when combining the characters in the character selection area as a part of the plurality of characters. When the second operation input is received, the game processing unit deletes at least one material character adjacent to the character selected by the second operation input from the character selection area and deletes it. The parameter of the character selected by the second operation input may be changed in accordance with the parameter of the selected material character.

  According to the present invention, when the player performs the second operation input for selecting a character that satisfies the predetermined condition among the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area, the character selected by the second operation input is displayed. Since at least one adjacent material character is erased from the character selection area and the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input is changed according to the erased material character parameter, By selecting a character by the second operation input during the match, the selected character can be strengthened and the convenience of the player can be enhanced.

  (4) In the program, the information storage medium, and the game system according to the present invention, the game processing unit deletes the character that attacked the enemy character from the character selection area, and the arrangement unit is deleted from the character selection area. The same number of characters as the deleted characters may be added to the character selection area.

  According to the present invention, the same number of characters as characters deleted from the character selection area are added and arranged in the character selection area, so that the strategy of the game can be enhanced.

The case of receiving the program and data and causing the game device to function is also included in the scope of the present invention.

  The processing unit 100 (processor) performs processing such as game processing, image generation processing, and sound generation processing based on input information (operation input) from the input unit 150, a program, data received via the communication unit 196, and the like. I do. The functions of the processing unit 100 can be realized by hardware such as various processors (CPU, DSP, etc.), ASIC (gate array, etc.), and programs.

  The processing unit 100 includes an arrangement unit 110, an attribute setting unit 112, a game processing unit 114, an image generation unit 120, and a sound generation unit 130.

  The placement unit 110 performs a process of placing a part of a plurality of characters (player characters) usable by the player in the character selection area. The placement unit 110 places enemy characters in the character selection area. In addition to the characters that can be used by the player, the placement unit 110 may place a material character that becomes a material when combining the characters in the character selection area.

  The attribute setting unit 112 sets an attribute of each character arranged in the character selection area (determines an attribute to be set for each character).

  When the first operation input for successively (sequentially) selecting a plurality of characters having the same attribute from the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area is input to the input unit 150, the game processing unit 114 According to the attack power (total attack power) calculated based on the parameters (attack power, etc.) of each character selected by the first operation input to the plurality of characters selected by the first operation input. A process for causing the enemy character to attack is performed. In other words, the control for causing each character selected by the first operation input to perform an action of attacking the enemy character, the processing for displaying the effect image accompanying the attack, and the enemy based on the attack power according to the parameter of each selected character. A process of reducing the physical strength value (hit point) of the character is performed. Here, the game processing unit 114 may calculate the attack power of each character sequentially selected according to the selected order, and may calculate the total attack power based on the calculated attack power of each character. In addition, the game processing unit 114 deletes the character that attacked the enemy character from the character selection area.

  In addition, when the second operation input for selecting a character that satisfies a predetermined condition among the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area is input to the input unit 150, the game processing unit 114 receives the second operation input. At least one character adjacent to the character selected by the operation input is erased from the character selection area, and the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input is changed according to the parameter of the erased character ( Increase). In addition, when the character selected by the second operation input and at least one material character are adjacent to each other in the character selection area, the game processing unit 114 deletes the material character from the character selection area. At the same time, processing may be performed to change the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input in accordance with the erased material character parameter.

  In addition, when the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input is changed, the game processing unit 114 sets the selection order for the character, and the character is moved to the character by the first operation input. The attack power (total attack power) may be calculated based on the changed parameters of the character only when selected in the selection order set in the above.

  In addition, when the first operation input or the second operation input is received, the game processing unit 114 decreases the value indicating the number of remaining turns until the enemy character starts an attack, and the remaining turns When the value indicating the number reaches a predetermined value (when it becomes an attack turn of the enemy character), a process of causing the enemy character to attack the character arranged in the character selection area is performed. That is, control that causes the enemy character to perform an action of attacking the character placed in the character selection area, processing that displays an effect image accompanying the attack, and placement in the character selection area based on the attack power according to the parameter of the enemy character A process for reducing the physical strength value of the character is performed.

Further, the game processing unit 114 deletes the character that attacked the enemy character from the character selection area, and deletes the character adjacent to the character selected by the second operation input from the character selection area. In addition, the same number of characters as the characters deleted from the character selection area (characters selected from characters excluding those arranged in the character selection area among a plurality of characters usable by the player) are stored in the character selection area. Add and place. At this time, the attribute setting unit 112 sets an attribute in accordance with a given rule for each character to be additionally arranged in the character selection area. Here, setting an attribute according to a given rule includes a case where an attribute to be set is determined (randomly) by lottery and a case where an attribute to be set is determined according to a predetermined order of attributes.

  The image generation unit 120 performs a drawing process based on the results of various processes performed by the processing unit 100, thereby generating a game image (game image representing a character selection area) and outputting it to the display unit 190. The image generation unit 120 may generate an image (so-called three-dimensional image) that can be seen from a virtual camera (a given viewpoint) in the object space (game field).

  The sound generation unit 130 performs sound processing based on the results of various processes performed by the processing unit 100, generates game sounds such as BGM, sound effects, or sounds, and outputs the game sounds to the sound output unit 192.

  In addition, when the game is started, the processing unit 100 transmits information for notifying that the game is started to the server 20, and when the game is ended, the game result information regarding the game result and various game parameters is transmitted. Is transmitted to the server 20. The server 20 updates various data associated with each player based on the game result information transmitted from the game device (terminal 10). Further, the processing unit 100 may transmit the setting information to the server 20 when the setting information of a plurality of characters usable by the player is changed.

  Moreover, you may comprise the game system of this embodiment as a server system (game system). The server system can be composed of one or a plurality of servers (authentication server, game processing server, communication server, billing server, database server, etc.). In this case, the server system receives an operation input (input to the input unit of the terminal) transmitted from one or a plurality of terminals (for example, a smartphone, a mobile phone, a portable game machine, etc.) connected via the network. Based on the data), the processing of the placement unit 110, the attribute setting unit 112, and the game processing unit 114 is performed to generate image generation data for generating an image, and the generated image generation data is sent to each terminal. To send. Here, the image generation data is data for displaying an image generated by the method of the present embodiment on each terminal, and may be image data itself or various types used by each terminal to generate an image. Data (object data, game processing result data, etc.) may be used. In addition, the game system may be configured such that the processing of each unit (the placement unit 110, the attribute setting unit 112, and the game processing unit 114) of the processing unit 100 is executed by being distributed between the server and the terminal.

2. Next, the method of this embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a game screen (game image) generated by the game system of the present embodiment, and is a diagram illustrating a game screen displayed when a battle with an enemy character is performed. The game screen GI is displayed on the display unit (touch panel) of the terminal 10, and the player can perform an operation input by performing an operation (touch operation) for bringing a fingertip, a touch pen, or the like into contact with the touch panel.

On the game screen shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of characters PC (player characters) arranged in a character selection area (game field) and an enemy character EC are displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 3, nine character PCs and one enemy character EC are arranged in the character selection area. In the present embodiment, nine character PCs are arranged in the character selection area among the 12 characters selected for use in the game by the player (which constitutes the deck). An attribute mark MK representing an attribute set for each character PC is displayed at a position where each character PC is arranged. In the game of the present embodiment, any of the five attributes “circle”, “triangle”, “square”, “star”, and “heart” is the character PC.
Set to

  In addition, the game screen GI includes a physical strength gauge PG indicating the total physical strength value of each character PC, a physical strength gauge EG indicating the physical strength value of the enemy character EC, and the remaining number of turns until the enemy character EC starts an attack. TN is displayed. In addition, on the game screen GI, an image NM indicating attributes set for the character PC to be added and placed in the character selection area next time is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 3, three attributes are displayed in advance as attributes to be set for the character PC to be additionally arranged. The additional arrangement of the character PC will be described later.

  The player can select the character PC to be attacked by performing an operation of touching the character PC (an operation of selecting the character PC) on the game screen. Also, as shown in FIG. 4, the player moves the fingertip while touching the touch panel, and sequentially performs an operation (an example of a first operation input) of overlapping the fingertip on a plurality of character PCs having the same attribute. By doing so, a plurality of character PCs to be attacked can be selected sequentially (continuously). Only the character PCs arranged adjacent to each other (adjacent in the up-down direction, the left-right direction, or the diagonal direction) may be selected sequentially, or the character PCs of the same attribute that are not arranged adjacently may be sequentially selected. You may be able to do it. In the example shown in FIG. 4, as a result of moving the fingertip along the trajectory TR, three characters PC having the attribute “◯” are sequentially selected.

  When a character PC (one character PC or a plurality of sequentially selected characters having the same attribute) is selected by the first operation input, game processing and game effects in which each selected character PC attacks the enemy character EC And the physical strength value of the enemy character EC represented by the physical strength gauge EG is updated. The physical strength value of the enemy character EC decreases according to the attack power (an example of a parameter) of each character PC that has attacked. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the three characters PC having the attribute “◯” each attack the enemy character EC. Then, the remaining number of turns TN until the enemy character EC starts attacking is decreased by one.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the character PC that attacked the enemy character EC is erased from the character selection area, and as shown in FIG. 6, the area caused by the erasure of the character PC exists in the left direction of the erased character PC. The character PC is filled by shifting to the right. As shown in FIG. 7, the same number of character PCs as the deleted character PCs are additionally arranged in the character selection area. In the example shown in FIG. 7, three character PCs are additionally arranged. Here, if the number of characters that can be used by the player (set by the player to be used in the game) is the same as the number (9) arranged in the character selection area, the erased character PC Are added to the character selection area as they are. Further, when the number of characters that can be used by the player is larger than the number arranged in the character selection area, the character selection area is selected from the characters (including erased characters) that are not arranged in the character selection area. Characters to be additionally arranged are determined by lottery (randomly). Of the characters not arranged in the character selection area, characters other than the erased character may be preferentially added and arranged in the character selection area.

In the present embodiment, the attributes of each character to be additionally arranged in the character selection area are determined by lottery (random or lottery using a lottery table). Therefore, the attributes set for the character may be different before erasure and after additional placement. For example, the attribute of the character PC to which the “circle” attribute is set in FIG. 4 is changed to a different attribute after the additional arrangement in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, since “triangle”, “triangle”, and “heart” are determined as the attributes NM set for the additionally placed character PC, as shown in FIG. The attributes of the three additional characters arranged are “triangle”, “triangle”, and “heart”, respectively. Thus, in this embodiment, the attribute set to the character PC to be additionally arranged is determined in advance and is displayed in advance as the attribute NM.

  Thus, in the game of this embodiment, each character does not have a unique attribute, and the attribute is reset every time it is placed in the character selection area. That is, according to the present embodiment, an enemy character is attacked by sequentially selecting a character having the same attribute among a plurality of characters whose attributes are reset every time the character selection area is arranged. It is possible to realize an unprecedented competitive game. Further, since each character does not have a unique attribute, the player can set a favorite character as a character used in the game (a character constituting a deck) without being restricted by the character attribute. Instead of determining the attribute of each character to be additionally arranged by lottery, the attribute order to be set may be determined in advance, and the attribute of each character to be additionally arranged may be set according to this order.

  When the character PC is additionally arranged, as shown in FIG. 7, the attribute NM to be set for the character to be additionally arranged next time is determined and updated by lottery (or a predetermined order of attributes). Each time one character PC is additionally arranged, one attribute of the character to be additionally arranged next time may be determined. First, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of attributes are determined, Some of them (three in this embodiment) may be displayed as the attribute NM.

  In addition, when the remaining number of turns TN until the enemy character EC starts attacking is 0 (an example of a predetermined value), the enemy character EC attacks and the enemy character EC attacks the character PC. And a game effect is performed and the total value of the physical strength value of the character PC represented by the physical strength gauge PG is updated. The total value of the physical strength values of the character PC decreases in accordance with the attack power of the enemy character EC that has attacked. On the other hand, if the remaining turn number TN is not 0, the character PC is attacked and a first operation input for sequentially selecting the character PC again is accepted.

  When the physical strength gauge EG of the enemy character EC becomes 0 by the attack of the character PC and the enemy character EC is defeated, a new enemy character EC appears. Then, by defeating some enemy characters EC (Zako characters) and defeating a boss character appearing at the end of the stage, the stage is cleared (the player wins). When the stage is cleared, a reward corresponding to the stage (a plurality of enemy characters EC appearing on the stage) is given to the player. As a reward, for example, a new character, item, experience value, points such as in-game currency, etc. are given to the player. When points such as experience values are awarded as rewards, the parameters, levels, etc. of the attack power of each character PC are updated (increased). On the other hand, if the physical strength gauge PG of the character PC becomes 0 before defeating the boss character, the stage has failed to be cleared (the player has lost).

  Next, calculation of the attack power of the character PC will be described. In the game of this embodiment, the total attack power is calculated by adding the attack powers of the character PCs sequentially selected by the first operation input, and the enemy character EC is attacked according to the total attack power (enemy The process of subtracting the physical strength gauge EG of the character EC is performed. That is, the greater the number of characters selected in sequence, the greater the total attack power and the greater the damage to the enemy character EC.

In the present embodiment, the total attack power changes according to the selection order of the sequentially selected characters. For example, as shown in FIG. 8 (A), in association with the combination of the character, may be set the coefficients C _c for calculating the total attack power, corresponding to the combination appearing in selection order of the sequentially selected character calculating the total attack power based on the coefficient C _c to. In the example shown in FIG. 8A, when a combination of characters “A” and “B” appears in the character selection order (character “A” → “B” or character “B” → “A”. “1.5” is determined as the coefficient C _c , and the total attack power becomes 1.5 times. In addition, when a combination of characters “B” and “C” appears in the character selection order (in the order of character “B” → “C” or in the order of character “C” → “B”), the coefficient “1.2” is determined as C _c , and the total attack power becomes 1.2 times. Further, for example if it is selected in the order of the character "A" → "B" → "C", "1.5 × 1.2" is determined as a coefficient C _c.

In the present embodiment, the attack power of each character that is selected sequentially is determined in accordance with the selected order. For example, as shown in FIG. 8B, a coefficient C _o for calculating the attack power of the character is set in association with the selected order, and based on the coefficient C _o corresponding to the selected order. The attack power of each character is calculated. In the example shown in FIG. 8B, the attack power of the first selected character is 0.7 times, and the attack power of the second selected character is 1.0 times (the attack power is not changed). The attack power of the third selected character is 1.3 times.

For example, assuming that the coefficient C _c and the coefficient _Co are set as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the characters “A” → “B” → “C” are input by the first operation input. When selected in order, assuming that the original attack strengths of the characters “A”, “B”, and “C” are S _a , S _b , and S _c , respectively, the total attack strength S _s is calculated as follows: The

S _s = ((S _a × 0.7) + (S _b × 1.0) + (S _c × 1.3)) × 1.5 × 1.2
Similarly, when the characters “A” → “C” → “B” are selected in the order of the first operation input, the total attack power S _s is calculated as follows.

S _s = ((S _a × 0.7) + (S _c × 1.0) + (S _b × 1.3)) × 1.0 × 1.2
That is, the player selects a combination of a character value of the coefficient C _c is increased (good compatibility two characters) in succession, and, by selecting the later high original ATK character, By increasing the total attack power, the damage to the enemy character EC can be increased.

  Next, the second operation input will be described. In the present embodiment, the player performs an operation (second operation input) for selecting a character that satisfies a predetermined condition from among a plurality of characters PCs arranged in the character selection area, so that the character that satisfies the predetermined condition and the character By combining (combining) at least one character adjacent to the character, the character that satisfies the predetermined condition (the character selected by the second operation input) can be strengthened.

In the example shown in FIG. 9, are displayed in each superimposed effect image EF to a predetermined condition is satisfied character _PC 1 to PC _3, character _PC 1 to PC ₃ satisfies a predetermined condition (character _PC 1 to PC ₃ has changed to a connectable state). Note that the character that satisfies the predetermined condition and the timing at which the character satisfies the predetermined condition are determined (randomly) by lottery. A plurality of characters that satisfy the predetermined condition are adjacent to each other.

When the player performs an operation of selecting any _{one of the} characters PC _{1 to} PC ₃ satisfying the predetermined condition (for example, an operation of long-tapping the selected character), the other two characters adjacent to the selected character are displayed. Combined with the selected character. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the player performs an operation for selecting a predetermined condition is satisfied character PC _1, as shown in FIG. 11, the character _PC 2, PC ₃ is character PC ₁ adjacent to the character PC ₁ And deleted from the character selection area. Further, the remaining number of turns TN until the enemy character EC starts attacking is decreased by one. As shown in FIG. 12, the same number (two) of character PCs as the erased characters PC ₂ and PC ₃ are additionally arranged in the character selection area.

Here, when the combination by the second operation input is performed, the parameters (attack power, defense power, recovery power, experience value, etc.) of the character selected by the second operation input are erased by the connection. It increases according to the character parameter. For example, in the example of FIG. 10, the attack power of the character PC ₁ (attack power, defense power, recovery power, experience value) increases according to the attack power of the character PC ₂ and PC ₃ .

Here, to each of the attack force or the like of the character _PC 2, PC ₃ may be directly added to the attack power such character PC _1, the given coefficient to each attack force or the like of the character _PC 2, PC ₃ The multiplied value may be added to the attack power of the character PC ₁ or the like. If each character has a skill (the ability to activate special effects such as special moves), the skill of the character deleted by the combination is selected for the character selected by the second operation input. Additional settings may be made. The parameter value of the character strengthened by the combination is reset to the original parameter value (parameter value before strengthening) of the character when the character is deleted from the character selection area.

  As described above, in the game according to the present embodiment, the player performs the second operation input for selecting a character that satisfies the predetermined condition among the characters arranged in the character selection area, and thereby, the character adjacent to the selected character and The parameters of the selected character can be increased by combining. That is, the player can reinforce the character selected on the game screen for playing against the enemy character without shifting to the game screen for strengthening the character, and the convenience of the player can be improved.

  In the game of the present embodiment, not only when the first operation input for attacking the enemy character is performed, but also when the second operation input for strengthening the character is performed, the enemy Since the number of turns left until the character starts attacking, the enemy character is attacked to consume the turn (whether priority is given to the enemy character) or the character is strengthened to consume the turn. (Whether priority is given to character strengthening) can be selected by the player according to the game situation, and the strategy of the game can be enhanced.

  In the above description, when there is a second operation input for selecting any of a plurality of characters that satisfy a predetermined condition, the case where the plurality of characters are combined is described. When there is a second operation input for determining one character and selecting the character, the selected character is combined with at least one character determined randomly among the characters adjacent to the selected character. You may comprise.

  In the game of the present embodiment, the selection order is set for the character strengthened by the second operation input (parameter is changed), and the character is set to the character by the first operation input. Only when selected in the selection order, the total attack power is calculated based on the changed (strengthened) attack power of the character, and the order other than the selection order in which the character is set to the character by the first operation input. If selected in (2), the total attack power may be calculated based on the original (before strengthening) attack power of the character.

In the example illustrated in FIG. 13, the image SS indicating the selection order “3” is superimposed and displayed on the character PC ₁ enhanced by the second operation input, and “3” is selected as the selection order for the character PC ₁ . Is set. Here, as shown in FIG. 14, when the player selects the character PC ₁ third by the first operation input (the character PC ₄ , PC ₅ , PC ₁ is moved by moving the fingertip along the trajectory TR). Are selected in this order), the total attack power is calculated based on the attack power of the characters PC ₄ and PC _{5 and} the attack power of the character PC ₁ after strengthening. On the other hand, when the player selects the character PC ₁ as the first, second, or fourth or later by the first operation input, the total attack power is calculated based on the attack power before the character PC ₁ is strengthened.

  In this way, when the player strengthens the character by the second operation input, the character strengthening effect is generated only when the character is selected by the first operation input according to the selection order set for the character. And the player can enjoy strategic gameplay under constraints.

  Further, in the game of the present embodiment, in addition to the characters set by the player to be used in the game, a material character as a composition material may be arranged (added and arranged) in the character selection area. Here, the material character arranged in the character selection area is not a character possessed by the player but a character lent (provided) to the player for strengthening the character. In addition, the material character placed in the character selection area is not determined as a character that satisfies the predetermined condition (cannot be selected by the second operation input). The timing at which the material character is arranged in the character selection area and the type of the material character arranged in the character selection area are determined randomly or in accordance with a given algorithm.

  When the material character is arranged in the character selection area, at least one material character adjacent to the character selected by the second operation input is deleted by being combined with the selected character, and the parameter of the selected character is It increases according to the parameter of the erased material character. Note that if there is no material character at a position adjacent to the character selected by the second operation input, the parameter change (character combination) of the selected character may not be executed. Further, the parameter value of the character strengthened by the combination (synthesis) with the material character may be maintained without being reset even after the character is deleted from the character selection area. Further, when the character selected by the second operation input and the material character are combined, the predetermined points acquired by the player in the game are reduced (the points required for the combination with the material character are consumed). You may do it. Further, when the character whose level has reached the maximum value is configured to limit further reinforcement (increase in parameters), the character whose level has reached the maximum value is not determined as a character that satisfies the predetermined condition (second). May not be selected by the operation input).

  In this way, by arranging a material character that is a material for composition in the character selection area and enabling composition of the material character and the character selected by the second operation input, the player synthesizes the character. Therefore, it is possible to reinforce the selected character by synthesizing the character selected by the second operation input and the material character on the game screen for playing against the enemy character without shifting to the game screen. Can be improved.

3. Processing Next, an example of processing of the game system of the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

First, the attribute setting part 112 determines the attribute of each character arrange | positioned in a character selection area | region by lottery (step S10). Next, the arrangement unit 110 arranges a plurality of characters each having an attribute set in the character selection area (step S12).

  Next, the game processing unit 114 determines whether or not there is a first operation input (or operation input for selecting one character) for sequentially selecting characters having the same attribute (step S14). Is input (Y in step S14), the attack power (total attack power) is calculated based on the parameter (attack power) of each selected character (step S16). Here, when the character selected by the first operation input is a character whose parameters have been changed by the second operation input (enhanced by combining), the attack is performed based on the parameters after the change of the characters. Calculate the force. Next, the game processing unit 114 performs a game process for causing each selected character to attack the enemy character based on the calculated attack power (step S18). Next, the game processing unit 114 deletes the selected character (the character that attacked the enemy character) from the character selection area (step S20).

  If there is no first operation input (N in Step S14), the game processing unit 114 determines whether or not there is a second operation input for selecting a character that satisfies a predetermined condition (Step S22). If there is an operation input 2 (Y in step S22), at least one character adjacent to the selected character (a character that satisfies a predetermined condition among characters adjacent to the selected character, determined by lottery) The character or the material character is deleted from the character selection area (step S24). If there is no second operation input (N in step S22), the process proceeds to step S38. Next, the game processing unit 114 changes (increases) the parameter of the character selected by the second operation input according to the character parameter erased in step S24 (step S26).

  Next, the attribute setting unit 112 sets an attribute for each character to be additionally arranged (the same number of characters deleted from the character selection area in step S20 or step S24) (step S28). Next, the arrangement unit 110 adds and arranges a plurality of characters each having an attribute set in the character selection area (step S30). Next, the game processing unit 114 decreases the remaining turn number TN until the enemy character starts attacking by 1 (step S32).

  Next, the game processing unit 114 determines whether or not the remaining turn number TN has become 0 (step S34), and when the remaining turn number TN has become 0 (Y in step S34), A game process for causing an attack on the character placed in the character selection area is performed (step S36), and the remaining turn number TN is reset (set to an initial value). If the remaining turn number TN is not 0 (N in step S34), the process proceeds to step S38.

  Next, the game processing unit 114 determines whether one of the physical strength value of the enemy character and the total physical strength value of the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area is equal to or less than a predetermined value (step S38). ) If none of them is equal to or less than the predetermined value (Y in Step S38), it is determined that the battle is continued, and the process proceeds to Step S14, where the physical strength value of the enemy character and the plurality of characters arranged in the character selection area are determined. The processes in and after step S14 are repeated until any of the total physical strength values of the characters becomes equal to or less than a predetermined value.
