And a program or data may be supplied to game terminal 10 or server 30 via an information storage medium.

  [2. Outline of Card Game] Although it is possible to execute various games in the game system 1, here, it is assumed that a game using a card (hereinafter referred to as "card game") is executed by the game system 1. The technique according to the present invention will be described on an assumption.

  The card game is, for example, a competitive card game or a trading card game. Trading card games are characterized by the fact that their decks are not fixed, such as playing cards, and they are sometimes called "collectable card games" or "customizable card games" in English.

  In the card game, a first user combines arbitrary cards according to a predetermined rule out of the owned cards to construct a deck, and uses the deck to play a match against the second user. The second user may be a human user other than the first user, or may be a computer (such as a computer imitating a human user).

  A "deck" is a bundle of cards (a collection of a plurality of cards) composed of a plurality of cards, and is also called a deck. In the following, "deck" refers to a bundle of cards that the user has built to play the game, and "slip" refers to cards placed face up in the game field during the game Of a deck (ie, a deck that is shuffled and placed face down). Therefore, in this specification, a combination of cards owned by the user is described as "deck", and one virtually arranged at a predetermined place for drawing cards is described as "bank". And distinguish between "deck" and "bank".

  Note that "to execute a card game" means, for example, to execute a computer game of a card game. That is, it is to execute a game in which a card game can be played between a first user and a second user via a computer and a network. It may be to execute a computerized version of a real trading card game or a computerized version of a fictional (unique) trading card game.

  Hereinafter, an example of a card game executed by the game system 1 will be described. The card game may be a client / server game executed by performing data communication between the game terminal 10 and the server 30, or a standalone game executed by the game terminal 10 alone. It may be a game.

  [2-1] The card game is executed on a turn basis. The turn is an order in which the first user or the second user can act. In the card game, the turn of the first user and the turn of the second user are alternately repeated. The first attack and the second attack are determined at the start of the card game match.

  The first user and the second user start the battle with their own life points. The life point is a point indicating vitality in the game, and as described later, is a numerical value which is the basis of the determination of the outcome. This point may be called by another name such as "hit point". The initial value of the life point may be any value, but in the present embodiment, it is 8000 points.

  In the first user's turn, a card is drawn from the first user's hand and the drawn card is added to the first user's hand. The "hand" is a card that is virtually held in the game. In other words, the hand is a card that can be placed on the game field. The first user places an arbitrary card from his / her hand in the game field, and uses the cards placed in the game field to attack the second user. Similarly, in the second user's turn, a card is drawn from the second user's hand and the drawn card is added to the second user's hand. The second user places an arbitrary card from his / her hand in the game field, and uses the cards placed in the game field to attack the first user.

  Depending on the card game, a special deck (for example, an extra deck described later) in which special types of cards are combined may be used in addition to a normal deck (main deck). In such a card game, under a predetermined condition, cards included in a special deck are placed in the game field and used to attack an opponent, prevent attacks from the opponent, and the like.

  The first user wins when the second user's life point reduced by the first user's attack to the second user becomes zero, and the first user's life point decreased by the second user's attack on the first user When it becomes zero, the first user loses.

  The winning condition of the game is not limited to the condition relating to life points. For example, the winning condition may be that the number of remaining cards in the deck is zero, and the player who can not draw cards from the deck first loses and the opponent wins. In addition, for example, it is necessary to arrange a specific combination of cards in the hand, arrange a specific combination of cards in the game field in a predetermined order, or to have a predetermined number of turns after activating the magic indicated by the specific card. The passing may correspond to the victory condition.

  [2-2] Next, basic terms of card games and types of cards will be described.

  [2-2-1] In this embodiment, the game field in which the card is placed is called a duel field. The duel field is a virtual world constructed in the game system 1 and may be a three-dimensional space or a two-dimensional plane. The first user and the second user can place cards at predetermined locations in the Duel field. While the game is in progress, a game image showing the state of the duel field is displayed on the display unit 15.

  FIG. 2 shows an example of the game image. The game image G1 shown in FIG. 2 includes the first user's hand C1, the second user's hand C2, the first user's life point LP1, the second user's life point LP2, the current turn T, and the current of the duel field F. The situation of is displayed. The first user selects a card to be used from his or her hand C1 displayed in the game image G1, or performs an operation to draw a card from his own deck on Duel Field F. You can advance the card game.

  FIG. 3 shows details of the duel field F. The duel field F of FIG. 3 includes a first user duel field F1, a second user duel field F2, and extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. In FIG. 3, the character string describing the area in which the first user's card is placed is described without being rotated, and the character string describing the area in which the second user's card is disposed is rotated in the opposite direction. And a string describing the shared area of the first user and the second user is described in both of them.

  The first user Duel field F1 is an area for placing a card of the first user, and is arranged on the front side (lower side) of the second user Duel field F2 and the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. The first user Duel field F1 includes a main monster zone Z2A to Z2E, a magic and anther zone Z3A to Z3E, a graveyard Z4A, a main deck zone Z5A, a field zone Z6A, and an extra deck zone Z7A.

  The main monster zones Z2A to Z2E are areas for arranging monster cards described later. That is, the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E are areas for arranging monster cards other than the extra monster cards described later. The first user can summon up to five monsters by arranging monster cards using the five main monster zones Z2A to Z2E. Note that "monger summoning" refers to using monsters in battle (such as attacking opponents) by placing monster cards in Duelfield F (main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, extra monster zones Z1A, Z1B, etc.) It is possible to make it possible. Details will be described later.

  The magic and eyebrow zones Z3A to Z3E are areas for arranging magic cards and eyebrow cards described later. The first user can arrange up to 5 magic cards and 罠 cards using the 5 magic and 罠 zones Z3A to Z3E. In addition, a pendulum monster card, which will be described later, can be arranged as a magic card in the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E at the left and right ends. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E at the left and right ends may be described as a pendulum zone. The pendulum zones Z3A and Z3E are areas for placing a pendulum monster card to be described later and performing pendulum summons.

  The graveyard Z4A is an area for arranging a monster card of the monster destroyed when a monster other than a pendulum monster to be described later is destroyed, or arranging a used magic card and an armor card.

  The main deck zone Z5A is an area for arranging a main deck described later as a deck. The user can draw a card from the main deck zone Z5A's hand and add it to his or her hand. The main deck zone Z5A displays the number of remaining decks.

  The field zone Z6A is an area for arranging a field magic card to be described later. Note that the Field Magic Card is not placed in the Magic & Trap Zone, so it will not be included in the 5 cards in the Magic & Trap Zone.

  The extra deck zone Z7A is an area for arranging an extra deck described later. When the pendulum monster described later is destroyed, the pendulum monster card is placed face up in the extra deck zone Z7A. Only in this case, the upper limit number of extra decks, which will be described later, may exceed 15. In the extra deck zone Z7A, the number of remaining bills is displayed.

  The second user duel field F2 is an area for placing a card of the second user. As shown in FIG. 3, the second user Duel field F2 has the same configuration as the first user Duel field F1, and main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, magic and armor zones Z3F to Z3J, graveyard Z4B, and main deck It includes zone Z5B, field zone Z6B, and extra deck zone Z7B. The meaning and role of these are the same as those of the first user Duel field F1 and thus the description thereof is omitted. In the second user Duel field F2, the magic and eyebrow zones Z3F and Z3J become the pendulum zone.

  Hereinafter, when it is not necessary to distinguish the main monster zones Z2A to Z2J, the main monster zones Z2A to Z2J are described as the main monster zone Z2. Similarly, when it is not necessary to distinguish between magic and armor zones Z3A to Z3J, graveyards Z4A and Z4B, main deck zones Z5A and Z5B, field zones Z6A and Z6B, and extra deck zones Z7A and Z7B, respectively, the magic and armor zones It is described as Z3, graveyard Z4, main deck zone Z5, field zone Z6, and extra deck zone Z7.

  The extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are areas for arranging extra monster cards described later. That is, the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are areas for summoning extra monsters described later. The extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are disposed between the first user duel field F1 and the second user duel field F2.

  In this embodiment, two extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are set, and the number thereof is smaller than five, which is the number of main monster zones Z2 of each of the first user and the second user. The extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are common areas of the first user and the second user, and cards can be arranged by the first user and the second user under predetermined conditions.

  For example, when both extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are free, the first user and the second user can arrange extra monster cards in the favorite one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. However, when the first user places the extra monster card in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the first user can not, in principle, place the extra monster card in the other, and the other user receives the second card. You can place extra monster cards. Similarly, when the second user places the extra monster card in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the second user can not, in principle, place the extra monster card in the other, and the other user receives the first user in the other. Can place extra monster cards. Hereinafter, when it is not necessary to distinguish between the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the extra monster zone Z1 is described.

  Note that the Duel field F is not limited to the above example. For example, duel field F may include an exclusion area zone for placing cards that have been excluded from the game. Furthermore, the exclusion area zone may be outside of the duel field F and may not be displayed in the game image G1.

  [2-2-2] There are two types of decks, a main deck and an extra deck. The main deck is a deck composed of a monster card other than an extra monster card described later, a magic card, and an agate card. The number of cards that can be inserted into the main deck may be any number, but in the present embodiment, it is possible to insert 40 or more and 60 or less cards.

  The extra deck is a deck composed only of extra monster cards described later. The number of cards that can be placed in the extra deck may be any number, but in the present embodiment, up to 15 cards can be placed. Note that the extra deck is not an essential requirement for playing the game, and it is not necessary to create an extra deck, especially when extra monster cards are not used.

  [2-2-3] Next, the type of card will be described. There are roughly three types of cards: monster cards, magic cards, and armor cards.

  [2-2-1] The monster card is a card for summoning a monster, and the monster to be summoned is drawn. In the present embodiment, the monster card means the card itself placed in the duel field F, and the monster means a game character appearing in the game by the monster card. Monster cards are classified into extra monster cards and monster cards other than extra monster cards.

  The extra monster card is a monster card for summoning extra monsters, and there are four types, a fused monster card, a synchro monster card, an extra monster card, and a linked monster card. Extra monsters generally have higher abilities than monsters other than extra monsters. Here, "high ability" refers to having higher attack power and defense than other monsters of the same level, and being able to take advantage of the card by the effect to be activated. "Card advantage" means that the game can be advanced with fewer cards than the opponent's card. For example, one card can be used to destroy two opponent's cards, or one card can be used to destroy one opponent's card, which corresponds to an example of "card advantage." In principle, the extra monster card can be placed only in the extra monster zone Z1, and is limited so that it can not be placed in the main monster zone Z2. However, as described later, the link monster card cancels the restriction.

  Monster cards other than extra monster cards are monster cards for summoning monsters other than extra monsters, and there are four types of monster cards: regular monster cards, effect monster cards, ceremonial monster cards, and pendulum monster cards.

  When the first user performs a predetermined operation from the operation unit 14 during the game, the display unit 15 can display a card detailed image indicating details of a monster card on the duel field F or in the hand. However, even if a monster card is placed on the duel field F, the card detailed image G2 can not be displayed when the second user's monster card is the back side defense display described later. Also, the first user can browse the card list in the graveyard Z4 of the first user and the second user. Similarly, the second user can also browse the card list in the graveyard Z4 of the first user and the second user. Hereinafter, the details of each monster card will be described with reference to the card detail image.

  4 to 6 show card detail images of the monster card. FIG. 4 shows a card detail image G2 of a normal monster card. The layout of the card detail image G2 of the effect monster card, the ceremonial monster card, the fused monster card, the extra monster card, and the synchro monster card is the same as that of a normal monster card, so the illustration thereof is omitted here.

  The normal monster card is a monster card for summoning a monster. Normal monsters are basic monsters that have no special effects. Normal monsters do not have special effects, but there are many monsters with high attack and defensive power. In the card detail image G2 shown in FIG. 4, the appearance of a monster is drawn, and the card name N20, level L21, attribute A22, race S23, card number N24, attack power A25, defense power D26, and monster information I27 are displayed. Is displayed.

  The card name N20 indicates the name of the monster. Level L21 indicates the level of the monster, and the higher the level, the stronger the monster. The attribute A22 indicates an attribute to which a monster belongs among a plurality of attributes (for example, six types of darkness, ground, flame, light, water, and wind). The race S23 indicates a race of monsters among a plurality of races (eg, wizards, demons, machines, etc.). The card number N24 is information for uniquely identifying a card.

  The attack power A25 indicates the attack power which is the height of the attack power of the monster, and the defense power indicates the defense power which is the height of the defense power of the monster. The higher the attack and defense strength, the better the battle between monsters. The monster information I 27 is detailed information of the monster, and if the monster is a normal monster, commentary such as the character and characteristics of the monster is displayed, and if it is a monster other than the normal monster, the effect and usage of the monster card are displayed .

  An effect monster card is a monster card for summoning an effect monster. Effect monsters are monsters that can exert effects like magic cards. The card detail image G2 of the effect monster card displays the contents of the effect to be activated and the activation condition of the effect in the monster information I27. In addition to the effect monsters, there are also monsters that have effects on ceremonial monsters, fusion monsters, synchro monsters, Xcy's monsters, pendulum monsters, or link monsters.

  The ceremonial monster card is a monster card for special summoning a ceremonial monster. Ritual monsters are monsters that are summoned by ritual summons described later. In the card detail image G2 of the ritual monster card, a ritual magic card necessary for summoning the ritual monster is displayed in the monster information I27. Details of the ceremonial magic card will be described later.

  FIG. 5 shows a card detailed image G2 of a pendulum monster card. The pendulum monster card is not only a monster card for summarizing a pendulum monster as a monster, but also a magic card for summarizing pendulum to be described later. Unlike the other card detailed images G2, the card detailed image G2 shown in FIG. 5 includes a pendulum scale S28 and a pendulum effect text T29.

  The pendulum scale S28 indicates the value of the pendulum scale. The pendulum scale is a numerical value for determining the levels of monsters that can be summoned by pendulum summoning. Details of how to use the pendulum scale will be described later.

  The pendulum monster card can be placed in the main monster zone Z2 like a normal monster card from the hand, or can be placed in the pendulum zone Z3 from the hand. However, Pendulum Monster cards can not be placed in Magic and Trap Zone Z3 other than Pendulum Zone Z3.

  In the present embodiment, the contents of the effect are different depending on the place where the pendulum monster card is placed. That is, the effect when the pendulum monster card is arranged in the main monster zone Z2 is different from the effect when the pendulum monster card is arranged in the pendulum zone Z3.

  The pendulum effect text T29 indicates the effect to be activated when the pendulum monster card is placed in the pendulum zone Z3. When the pendulum monster card is placed in the pendulum zone Z3, the pendulum effect text T29 is activated and the monster information I27 is not activated. On the other hand, when the pendulum monster card is placed in the main monster zone Z2 (ie, when a pendulum monster is summoned), the effect of the pendulum effect text is not activated, and the effect of the monster information I27 is activated.

  The fusion monster card is a monster card for special summoning a fusion monster. A fusion monster is a monster summoned by fusion summoning described later. In the card detail image G2 of the fusion monster card, the material necessary for fusion summoning is displayed in the monster information I27. The cards necessary for fusion summoning are monster cards that move to the graveyard Z4 in exchange for fusion monster cards. In other words, the cards necessary for fusion summoning are the monster cards sent from the hand, the field, or both of them to the graveyard Z4 in exchange for the fused monster card.

  The Synchro Monster Card is a monster card for special summoning Synchro Monsters. The Synchro Monster is a monster that is Special Summoned by Synchro Summoning, described later. In the card detail image G2 of the Synchro Monster Card, materials necessary for Synchro Summoning are displayed in the monster information I27. The necessary cards for Synchro Summoning are monster cards that move to Graveyard Z4 in exchange for Synchro Monster cards. In other words, the cards necessary for Synchro Summoning are monster cards sent to Graveyard Z4 from the hand, the field, or both in exchange for Synchro monsters.

  The Xthys Monster Card is a monster card for special summoning the Xthys Monster. The Xthys Monster is a monster that is Specially Summoned by the Xies Summoner described later. The X'sies monster has a value of rank instead of the level, and the card detail image G2 shows the numerical value of the rank. Rank indicates the level of material required to summon Xyz. In the card detail image G2 of the X's Monster card, the material necessary for summoning X's is displayed in the monster information I27, and it is shown how many monsters of the same level as the rank are required. The material card is not moved to the graveyard Z4, but is stacked under the X's Monster card and the X's Monster is summoned to Duel Field F. Also, with regard to the cards stacked on the bottom of the X's Monster card (cards used as material), various effects are activated by sending them to the graveyard Z4.

  FIG. 6 shows a card detail image G2 of the link monster card. The link monster card is a monster card for performing link summoning described later. A link monster is a monster that is specially summoned by link summoning described later. As shown in FIG. 6, linked monsters have a value of LINK instead of defensive strength. LINK indicates the number of link markers to be described later. The higher the LINK value, the more powerful the link monster. In the card detailed image G2, LINK information I30 indicating the numerical value of the link monster LINK is displayed. The link monster may be set to have a low attack power for the special effect described later.

  Further, unlike the other card detailed images G2, the card detailed image G2 illustrated in FIG. 6 includes link markers M31A to M31H. The link markers M31A to M31H indicate eight directions of upward, upper right, right, lower right, lower, lower left, left, and upper left directions, respectively. Hereinafter, the link markers M31A to M31H are described as link markers M31 when it is not necessary to distinguish them.

  The link monster card has a special effect of enabling placement of an extra monster card in the main monster zone Z2. The link marker M31 is a marker for indicating the direction (place) where the effect extends. The link monster card can exert an effect in the direction in which the color of the link marker M31 is changing. In FIG. 6, the link marker M31 whose color is not changed is shown in white in its inside, and the link marker M31 whose color is changed is shown in its halftone dot. Since the color of the three link markers M31A, M31D, and M31F is changed, the link monster card of FIG. 6 can exert effects in three directions of upward, lower right, and lower left directions. Hereinafter, the direction in which the color of the link marker M31 is changed will be described as "the direction in which the link marker M31 points".

  For example, when the first user places the link monster card of FIG. 6 in the extra monster zone Z1A, the extra monster card is placed in the main monster zones Z2A, Z2C, and Z2G at the lower right, lower left, and upper of the extra monster zone Z1A. You will be able to However, since the main monster zone Z2G is in the second user duel field F2, the first user can not place the extra monster card, and the second user can place the extra monster card in the main monster zone Z2G. It will be. That is, depending on the direction pointed by the link marker M31 of the link monster card that the first user places in the extra monster zone Z1A, Z1B, not only the first user but also the second user may be advantageous.

  When the link monster card is placed at the point indicated by the link marker M31, the area where the extra monster card can be placed may be further expanded by the link monster card of the link destination. For example, the first user arranges the “decode / talker” shown in FIG. 6 in the extra monster zone Z1A, and further, in the main monster zone Z2C, a link monster card in which the color of the link markers M31C and M31G is changed (ie, link When a link monster card in which the marker M31 points to the left and right directions is placed, for example, “Honeybot” in FIGS. 7 and 8 described later, the main monster zones Z2B and Z2D on the left and right of the main monster zone Z2C are also arranged. , Will be able to place an extra monster card. Thus, by linking the link monster card, the area where the extra monster card can be placed can be gradually expanded.

  It is not necessary to place an extra monster card necessarily at the destination indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card, and a monster card other than the extra monster card can also be placed. Since the first user and the second user can not arrange their cards upside down, they can not change the location of the effect of the link monster card depending on the direction in which the cards are placed.

  FIGS. 7 and 8 show a part of the duel field F when a monster card is placed at a point indicated by the link marker M31. In FIG. 7, a link monster card "Honeybot" is placed in the main monster zone Z2B by the effect of another link monster card, and a normal monster card "Bitron" is placed in the main monster zone Z2C. Indicates

  As shown in FIG. 7, during a card game battle, another monster card may be placed at a point pointed by the link marker M31 of a certain link monster card. Hereinafter, this state is called a link. Since "bitron" is arranged at the point indicated by the link marker M31C of "honeybot", "honeybot" and "bitron" are in a linked state.

  In addition, when it is in the link state, the card to which the link marker M31 points is referred to as a link destination. On the other hand, a link monster card having a link marker M31 is called a link source. In the case of FIG. 7, the link destination is "bitron" and the link source is "honeybot". Some monsters have an effect that is activated only when they are linked. For example, the link source "Honeybot" can have the effect of making the link destination "Bitron" resistant to effects and combat.

  Further, FIG. 8 shows a case where a link monster card "Honeybot" is disposed in the main monster zones Z2B and Z2C. As shown in FIG. 8, the link markers M31 of two link monster cards may be in a state of pointing to each other. Hereinafter, this state is called mutual link. In the case of FIG. 8, two “honey bots” are linked to each other, and they can mutually exert effects of giving effects and resistance regarding combat.

  In this embodiment, when the user places the link monster card in one of the two extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B and connects the mutual links, the link monster card can be placed in the other. In this embodiment, a state in which two link monster cards arranged in two extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are all interconnected by a link via a link monster card arranged in the main monster zone Z2 is referred to as an extra link. .

  FIG. 9 shows a part of the Duel field F when it becomes an extra link. As described above, when the first user places the link monster card in the extra monster zone Z1A, the first user can not place the link monster card in the extra monster zone Z1B. However, if the first user arranges the link monster cards in the main monster zones Z2B, Z2C, and Z2D in a state in which all link monster cards are linked by mutual links (that is, when it becomes an extra link), the first user also sends extra monsters to the extra monster zone Z1B. Will be able to place.

  For example, as in the example shown in FIG. 9, the first user places the “link spider” in the extra monster zone Z1A, and thereafter, the first “star cup warrior nigills”, “honeybot”, and the second If you place "Star Cup Warriors Ningirus" in the main monster zones Z2B, Z2C, and Z2D in turn, these four link monster cards will be linked to each other. Since the color of the link marker M31A in the upward direction has changed in the "Star Cup Warrior Ningirus" of the main monster zone Z2D, the first user can arrange the link monster card also in the extra monster zone Z1B. In this state, when the first user places the "link spider" in the extra monster zone Z1B, the extra link is completed. When the extra link is completed, the link monster card of the first user is placed in the extra monster zone Z1B, so the second user can not place the extra monster card in the extra monster zone Z1B.

  In the example shown in FIG. 9, extra links are established by arranging link monster cards in all three main monster zones Z2B, Z2C, and Z2D, but depending on the link monster cards, three main monsters Even if the link monster card is not arranged in all of the zones Z2B, Z2C and Z2D, an extra link may be established. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 9, a link monster in which the color of the link marker M31D in the lower right direction is changed (ie, a link monster pointing in the lower right direction) is arranged in the extra monster zone Z1A, and the main monster zone Z2C In the case where a link monster in which the color of the link markers M31H and M31C in the upper left direction and the right direction is changed (ie, a link monster pointing to the upper left direction and the right direction) is arranged, the link monster is arranged in the main monster zone Z2B. Even if there is no extra link is established. Further, for example, in the example shown in FIG. 9, a link monster in which the color of the link marker M31D in the lower right direction is changed (ie, a link monster pointing in the lower right direction) is arranged in the extra monster zone Z1A, and the main monster zone Link monsters where the color of the link markers M31H and M31B in the upper left and upper right directions are changed in Z2C (ie link monsters pointing the lower left and upper right directions) are arranged, and in the extra monster zone Z1B, link markers in the lower left direction When a link monster whose color of M31F is changed (that is, a link monster pointing to the lower left direction) is arranged, an extra link is established without arranging a link monster in the main monster zones Z2B and Z2D.

  [2-2-3-2] Magic cards are cards that have effects to support battles, and are usually magic cards, quick magic cards, permanent magic cards, field magic cards, equipment magic cards, and ritual magic cards. There are six types of

  The first user can display the details of the magic card on the duel field F or the hand on the card detailed image G2 by performing a predetermined operation from the operation unit 14 during the game. However, even if the magic card is arranged on the duel field F, the card detailed image G2 can not be displayed when the magic card of the second user is displayed on the back side described later. Hereinafter, the details of each magic card will be described with reference to the card detailed image.

  FIG. 10 shows a card detailed image G2 of a magic card. FIG. 10 shows a card detailed image G2 of the fast-paced magic card. The layout of the card detail image G2 of the normal magic card, the permanent magic card, the field magic card, the equipped magic card, and the ceremonial magic card is the same as that of the normal magic card, so the illustration thereof is omitted here.

  Magic cards are cards that can only be used during your main phase, and move to the graveyard when used. The normal magic card is speed spell 1. Details of the main phase and speed spells will be described later.

  In the card detailed image G2 shown in FIG. 10, an illustration showing the contents of magic is drawn, and a card name N32, a card type A33, an effect icon I34, a card number N35, and effect information I36 are displayed.

  The card name N32 indicates the name of a magic card. In the card type A33, an icon indicating whether it is a magic card or an eyebrow card is displayed. The effect icon I34 is an icon indicating the type of effect. For example, the normal magic of the normal magic card, especially the icon does not appear, the fast magic of the fast magic card, the permanent magic of the permanent magic card, the permanent magic of the field magic card, the equipment magic of the equipment magic card, and the ritual magic card Ritual magic displays an icon to identify each. For example, the magic card "cyclone" in FIG. 10 has an effect icon I34 indicating that it is a fast-paced magic. The card number N35 is information for uniquely identifying a card. The effect information I36 describes the activation condition of the magic card and its effect.

  A fast-paced magic card is basically a card that can trigger an effect any time. Haste Spell Card is a special magic card that can activate effects on the opponent's turn. However, the turn can not be activated on the turn in which the fast-paced magic card is placed in the magic and Zen zone Z3. In order to activate the effect of the fast spell card in the opponent's turn, it is necessary to arrange the fast spell card in the magic / whale zone Z3 in advance with the back side display described later. The fast spell card is speed spell 2.

  A permanent magic card is a card that can only be used during your main phase, and remains in the magic zone during the activation of the effect, and the effect is activated permanently. The permanent magic card is speed spell 1.

  The field magic card is a card that activates the same effect as the permanent magic card, but the area that can be placed is limited to the field zone Z6. The field magic card remains in the field zone Z6 even after the effect is activated. Note that instead of moving the field magic card of the field zone Z6 to the graveyard, a new field magic card can be placed in the field zone Z6. Field magic card is speed spell 1.

  The Equipment Magic card gives an effect to a single monster, and even after activation, it continues to remain in the Magic and Trap zone Z3 and effects are permanently activated. The equipped magic card is speed spell 1.

  The ritual magic card is a magic card for summoning ritual monsters. The ceremonial magic card moves to the graveyard Z4 when it is used. Ritual magic card is speed spell 1.

  The [2-2-3-3] 罠 card is a card having an effect for supporting a match. Samurai cards are similar to magic cards, but differ from magic cards in that they can activate effects on your opponent's turn. For this reason, the Samurai card can not be activated basically from the turn placed in the Magic and Aroma Zone Z3, and can be activated from the next turn. The whistle card can be activated in any turn between the first user and the second user as long as it is a turn after the arranged turn. There are three types of 罠 cards: 罠 cards, permanent 罠 cards, and counter 罠 cards.

  When the first user performs a predetermined operation from the operation unit 14 during the game, the card detail image G2 can display the details of the bribe card on the duel field F or in the hand. However, even if the decoy card is disposed on the duel field F, the card detailed image G2 can not be displayed when the decoy card of the second user is displayed on the back side described later. Hereinafter, the details of each decoy card will be described with reference to the card detail image.

  FIG. 11 shows a card detailed image G2 of a decoy card. FIG. 11 shows a card detail image G2 of the permanent decoy card. The layout of the card detail image G2 of the normal 罠 card and the counter 罠 card is the same as that of the normal magic card, so the illustration is omitted here. As shown in FIG. 11, an eyebrow card has an illustration showing the contents of the eyebrow, and basically has the same layout as a magic card. Therefore, a card name N32, a card type A33, an effect icon I34, a card number N35, and effect information I36 are displayed on the bribe card.

  The Normal Samurai Card is a Samurai Card that has a single-use effect, and moves to the graveyard when activated, as with a Magic Card. The Normal Trap card is speed spell 2.

  The Permanent Trap Card, like the Permanent Magic Card, remains in the Magic and Trap Zone Z3 and its effects are triggered permanently. The Permanent Trap card is speed spell 2.

  The counter 罠 card is basically a card that is activated when the other card is activated, and has, for example, an effect of invalidating the card activation itself. The Counter Trap Card is Speed Spell 3.

  [2-3] Next, summoning of monsters will be described. Summoning a monster is to place a monster card in a place that meets the conditions, and to make the monster appear in the game. That is, "summoning a monster" means making a monster available for battle (attack on an opponent, etc.) by placing a monster card at a place that meets the conditions. Here, before describing the summons, the arrangement format (display format) of the cards will be described. In the present embodiment, a plurality of arrangement forms are determined for the card, and the first user and the second user can select any arrangement form and arrange the monster card in the duel field F. .

  FIG. 12 shows the arrangement form of the monster card. As shown in FIG. 12, there are three types of monster card layout types: front side attack display, back side defensive display, and front side defensive display. The front side attack display is to arrange a monster card face up in a vertical direction, and it is possible to perform a battle based on the monster card's attack power. The back side defense display is to place the monster card face down on the side, and it is possible to make a battle based on the monster card's defensive power. The front side defense display is to arrange the monster card face up and sideways, and it is possible to battle based on the monster card's defense strength.

  When the first user or the second user arranges a monster card and summons a monster, either the front side attack display or the back side defensive display can be selected, but the front side defensive display can not be selected. However, exceptionally, when summoning an extra monster, it is possible to select either the front side attack display or the front side defense display. In addition, the first user or the second user can also perform reverse summoning to display a monster card on the back side defense display on the front side attack display. However, in reverse summoning, monster cards on the reverse side of the field can not be made face-up. A monster card on the reverse side of the field changes to front side defense mode when it is attacked by the opponent or when a certain magic card is activated. Furthermore, the arrangement format can be changed between the front side attack display and the front side defensive display.

  In addition, there are two types of arrangement form of the magic card and the armor card, front side indication and back side indication. The front side display is to arrange a magic card or an eyebrow card vertically in a face up manner, and an effect is activated. The back side display is to arrange a magic card or an eyebrow card vertically in a face-up manner, and the activation of the effect is in a standby state. When a magic card or an eyebrow card is displayed on the back side, it is necessary to change it to the front side display in order to activate the effect. Note that magic cards and armor cards can not be placed sideways. Also, putting the card face down is generally referred to as a set, but in the present embodiment, it is referred to as a back side display or a back side defensive display.

  There are two types of summons, normal summons and special summons. Normal Summoning can only be performed once per turn. There is no limit on the number of Special Summons, unless otherwise stated on the card.

  Normal Summoning is to place a monster card in your hand in the main monster zone Z2. Monsters with level 4 or lower can be summoned as they are. Level 5 and 6 monsters can be summoned in exchange for the monster summoned to Duel Field F. The exchange for a monster means sending the monster being summoned (a monster card placed on Duel Field F) to the graveyard Z4, and it is described as "release" hereinafter. A monster with level 7 or higher needs to release two monsters summoned on Duel Field F. Hereafter, Normal Summons requiring release of one or more monsters (that is, Normal Summons of level 5 or higher monsters) is referred to as Advance Summon.

  In normal summoning, monster cards can be placed in the front side attack display or the back side defense display. Even if monster cards with level 5 or higher monsters are displayed on the reverse side, you will need to release one or more monsters because they will be advanced summoned.

  Special Summoning refers to summoning other than Normal Summoning. For example, ceremonial summoning, fusion summoning, contact fusion, synchro summoning, X'sies Summoning, Pendulum Summoning, and Link Summoning correspond to examples of “special summoning”. In Special Summoning, you can choose either Front Side Attack Display or Front Side Defense Display, but since Link Monsters do not have defensive strength, Link Summoning will only be a Front Attack Display. In addition, since the arrangement form of the link monster is only the front side attack display, the arrangement form is not changed by the effects of the monster effect, the magic card, and the armor card.

  Ritual Summoning is the Special Summoning of Ritual Monsters. The ritual summoning can be performed by placing a ritual magic card in the magic and moth zone Z3 to activate the effect, and releasing a monster based on the summoning conditions indicated in the monster information I 27 of the ritual magic card. In ritual summoning, there is no need for specific monsters to be used as materials, and it is necessary to release them to satisfy the summoning conditions such as “total level is 8 or more,” or send them from hand to graveyard Z4. The ritual magic card used for ritual summoning is moved to the graveyard.

  Fusion Summoning is the special summoning of Fusion Monsters. Fusion Summoning can be performed by placing a Fusion card, which is a magic card, in the Magic and Trap zone Z3 to activate the effect, and releasing the material monster indicated in the monster information I27 of the Fusion Summon card. Material monsters do not necessarily have to be summoned, and monster cards in hand cards can also be used as materials. The Fusion card used in Fusion Summon moves to the graveyard.

  Contact fusion is special summoning a fusion monster by a special summoning method different from fusion summoning. The contact fusion can be performed by returning a specific normal monster card and a monster card of material to the deck of the main deck zone Z5. Fusion monsters summoned by contact fusion return to the deck in extra deck zone Z7 in the end phase of the summoned turn. Details of the end phase will be described later.

  Synchro Summoning is the special summoning of Synchro monsters. Synchro Summoning can be done by releasing these monsters if the sum of the level of a specific monster called the tuner and the levels of other monsters is the same as the level of the synchro monster. In the present embodiment, there is Dark Synchro Summoning as a type of Synchro Summoning. Dark Synchro Summoning can be done by releasing these monsters if the number obtained by subtracting the level of a specific monster called the dark tuner and the levels of other monsters is the same as the level of the synchro monster. it can.

  The X's Summoner is a special summon of the X'S Monster. The X's Summon can be done by superimposing the X's Monster card and the monster card of the same level as the X's monster rank. This can be done by using the monster of the material shown in the monster information I 27 of the X's Monster card. The X's Summoner doesn't need a specific monster to be the material, but it needs to meet the summons such as "two or more level 4 monsters". In addition, the monster that has become the material is not released, but it is stacked under the X'sies monster, and is sent to the graveyard Z4 to activate various effects.

  Pendulum Summoning is the special summoning of other monsters using Pendulum monsters. Pendulum Summoning can be performed by placing a Pendulum Monster card in Pendulum Zone Z3. The pendulum monster card is placed in the pendulum zone Z3 by being removed from the hand, like the field magic card and permanent magic card. In Pendulum Summoning, monsters with levels between Pendulum Scales shown by Pendulum Monster Cards placed on the left and right can be Special Summoned once per turn.

  For example, if the smaller of the pendulum scales of the two left and right pendulum monster cards is taken as the first value and the larger one is taken as the second value, Pendulum Summoning has a level greater than the first value, and You can Special Summon monsters with levels below the second value. If the pendulum scales of the two left and right pendulum monster cards are the same or differ by only one, there will be no numerical value between them, so it will not be possible to summon pendulum.

  FIG. 13 shows how Pendulum Summoning takes place. In the example of FIG. 13, a pendulum monster card with a pendulum scale of 2 is placed in the left pendulum zone Z3A, and a pendulum monster card with a pendulum scale of 8 is placed in the right pendulum zone Z3E. In this case, monsters of levels 3 to 7 that are between level 2 and level 8 can be summoned as Pendulum. In the example of FIG. 13, Pendulum Summoning summons one monster at each of the levels 3 to 7. Note that Pendulum Summoning allows you to summon multiple monsters of the same level. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 13, it is possible to summon two Level 4 monsters, two Level 5 monsters, and one Level 7 monster.

  When the first user or the second user specially summons a pendulum monster from his or her hand, the pendulum monster card is removed from the hand and placed in the main monster zone Z2. On the other hand, when the first user or the second user specially summons a pendulum monster from the deck in his extra deck zone Z7, the pendulum monster card is removed from the deck and placed in the extra monster zone Z1. That is, even if it is the same Pendulum monster card, it will be treated the same as the extra monster card after moving to the deck of the extra deck zone Z7. If an extra monster is regularly summoned and sent to the graveyard Z4 and then special summoned from the graveyard Z4, the extra monster card is placed in the main monster zone Z2.

  Link Summoning is the special summoning of link monsters. Link summoning is performed by releasing material monsters based on the summoning conditions indicated in the monster information I 27 of the link monster card. The link summoning material does not have to be a specific monster, but may be a monster that satisfies the summoning condition. The summoning condition may be, for example, a condition such as “two or more effect monsters, and the same number of monsters as LINK of the link monster card”.

  In addition, when using a link monster that has been summoned as a material for link summoning, the link monster's LINK number is treated as the number of material monsters. For this reason, when the link monster whose link is 2 is used as the material, the link monster is counted as a material for two bodies.

  FIG. 14 shows how link summoning is performed. Here, the case where the link monster card's LINK value is 3 and the summoning condition is “two or more effect monsters and the same number of monsters as the link monster card's LINK” will be exemplified. As shown in FIG. 14, for example, when three effect monsters are normally summoned, since the summoning condition is satisfied, link summoning by the link monster card in which the relevant summoning conditions are described becomes possible.

  In the case of FIG. 14, in exchange for releasing three effect monsters, the target link monster card is removed from the deck of the extra deck zone Z7A and placed in the extra monster zone Z1A. This completes link summoning. If both of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are free, the link monster card may be arranged to one of them.

  [2-4] Next, the flow of a card game will be described. As described above, the card game is executed on a turn basis, and during the match, the turn of the first user and the turn of the second user are alternately repeated. Each turn has multiple phases to unambiguously separate the procedures in that turn.

  FIG. 15 shows the phase in each turn. As shown in FIG. 15, there are six types of phases: a draw phase P1, a standby phase P2, a first main phase P3, a battle phase P4, a second main phase P5, and an end phase P6. At the start of the match, the first and second users are decided first and second, and the first and second users draw five cards from the deck in their main deck zone Z5. To be executed. Thereafter, hands C1 and C2 are displayed on the game image G1, and the game starts from the turn of the first attack.

  In the first turn after the start of the battle, the draw phase P1, the battle phase P4 and the second main phase P5 are omitted. Therefore, when the battle starts, the first attacking standby phase P2, the first attacking first main phase P3, the first attacking end phase P6, the second attacking draw phase P1, the second attacking standby phase P2, the second attacking first main phase P3 The battle proceeds as in the second battle phase P4, the second main phase P5, the second end phase P6, the first draw phase P1, and so on. The number of turns is counted as the first turn, the second turn, the third turn, and so on each time the first user and the second user finish their turns. Indicated.

  [2-4-1] Draw Phase P1 is the first phase of the turn. Hereinafter, one of the first user and the second user who is advancing a turn is referred to as a turn user, and one who is not advancing a turn is referred to as an opposite user. In the turn of the first user, the turn user is the first user and the opposite user is the second user. In the turn of the second user, the turn user is the second user and the other user is the first user.

  In the draw phase P1, an effect is performed such that the turn user draws one card from the top of the top deck of his main deck zone Z5A and adds it to his hand. As described above, when there is no card in the deck in the main deck zone Z5A and the turn user can not draw a card, the turn user loses. In addition, during the draw phase P1 from when the turn user draws the card from the bill to the standby phase P2, the trigger effect of the monster card having a trigger immediate effect, a quick attack magic card, etc. You can activate the effects of a Trap Card, Permanent Trap Card, or Counter Trap Card. Hereafter, it is called a quick effect to activate the effect of the triggered immediate effect of a monster card having a triggered immediate effect at this stage, or the effect of a fast-paced magic card, a regular-magic card, a permanent-magic card, or a counter-magic card.

  [2-4-2] In the standby phase P2, when there is a card having an effect of "to... To the standby phase P2" on the Duel field F, the processing of the effect is executed. The effect can basically be activated only once in the standby phase P2. For example, in the standby phase P2, the effect is that “by paying 300 life points during the standby phase of your turn, select one card other than the monster card present in your graveyard and return it to the bottom of the deck. Occur. Also, for example, an effect that “one player's hand can be randomly viewed by paying 500 life points during the standby phase of the opponent” is generated in the standby phase P2.

  [2-4-3] The 1st main phase P3 is a phase that allows the turn user to use cards most freely. Summons of monsters (placement of monster cards), change of arrangement form of monster cards, effect of each card Can be activated, and placement of magic cards and armor cards on the back side can be performed. The turn user can perform these actions in any order, but some actions have a limited number of times.

  For example, if the turn user summons a monster in the first main phase P3, reverse summoning and special summoning can be repeated many times during one turn, but they can be normal summoning on the front side attack display and on the back side defense display. Normal Summoning can only be done once. The normal summoning here includes the above-mentioned advance summoning. The limit number of times of normal summoning is set to the number including the second main phase P5 described later. For this reason, when the turn user normally summons in the first main phase P3, the number of times reaches the limited number, so the normal summoning can not be performed in the second main phase P5 of the same turn.

  When the turn user changes the arrangement form of the monster card in the first main phase P3, it can be executed only once per monster card on the duel field F. For this reason, the turn user can not change the arrangement form many times during the same turn for the same monster card. The turn user can not change the arrangement format of the monster cards of the monsters summoned in the first main phase P3 in the first main phase P3 of the same turn. Also, even if the arrangement form is not changed in the first main phase P3, the monster cards of the monsters participating in the attack in the battle phase P4 can not change the arrangement form in the second main phase P5.

  When the turn user activates a card effect in the first main phase P3, it is possible to activate the effect as many times as the hand or cost allows. In addition, when the turn user places a magic card or anther card in the back side display in the first main phase P3, a maximum of five cards may be set excluding the field zone Z6 including the already arranged magic card and the anther card. it can.

  [2-4-4] Battle phase P4 is a phase in which a monster card on Duel Field F is used for battle. The battle phase P4 is divided into a plurality of steps and proceeds according to a predetermined procedure. The battle phase P4 is not necessarily performed, and the battle phase P4 can also be skipped. Therefore, even when a monster card is placed on the Duel field F, it is possible to shift to the end phase P6 without performing the battle phase P4 according to the judgment of the turn user.

  FIG. 16 shows the flow of the battle phase P4. As shown in FIG. 16, the battle phase P4 includes a start step S4-1, a battle step S4-2, a damage step S4-3, and an end step S4-4. Battle step S4-2 and damage step S4-3 can be repeated as much as possible.

  The start step S4-1 is a step of making a declaration for entering the battle phase P4. When the battle phase P4 is entered, an effect of declaring that the turn user "enters the battle phase P4" is performed on the game image G1. As described above, since the battle phase P4 can not be performed only for the first turn, the battle phase P4 is performed after the second turn.

  The battle step S4-2 is a step in which the turn user selects one monster to be attacked and one monster of the opponent user as an attack target from the monster cards on the front side attack display. In this case, an effect that the turn user declares an attack is performed on the game image G1. The attack is basically up to once per monster. When the effect of declaring an attack is performed, the process proceeds to damage step S4-3. When the damage step S4-3 ends, the process returns to the battle step S4-2 again, and the above order is repeated as much as possible.

  The damage step S4-3 is a step of calculating the damage and deriving the battle result. When the damage step S4-3 ends, the process returns to the battle step S4-2 again. The damage step S4-3 proceeds through five timings.

  FIG. 17 shows five timings included in the damage step S4-3. The damage step S4-3 shown in FIG. 17 includes five timings of a damage step start time TM1, a damage calculation time TM2, a damage calculation time TM3, a damage calculation time TM4 and a damage step end time TM5 in chronological order.

  The damage step start time TM1 is the timing at which the damage step S4-3 starts. When attacking a monster on the monster card on the back side defense display, the monster card does not become a front side defense display at this timing. At the start of the damage step TM1, the effect of the card described as "damage step S4-3" or "do not calculate damage" is activated and the effect of changing the offensive / defensive power of the monster is activated.

  TM2 before damage calculation is timing to reverse a monster card on the back side defense display to a front side attack display or a front side defense display. Note that the effect described as “when this card is reversed” is displayed in the reversed monster card, and is not processed here, and is processed in TM 4 after damage calculation described later. After the monster card on the reverse side of the defense indication is reversed, the effect of the card described as "Damage Step S4-3 o'clock" or "Before Damage Calculation TM2", and the effect to change the monster's attack power and defense power are Activate.

  At the time of damage calculation TM3 is the timing for entering the damage calculation. At damage calculation TM3, the reduction of life points by battle and the destruction of monsters are decided. At this point, monsters determined to be destroyed in battle will not be sent to the graveyard, but will be sent to the graveyard at the end of the damage step TM5 described later. At the time of damage calculation TM 3, the effect of the card described as “at damage calculation TM 3” and the effect of the counter 罠 card are activated.

  When calculating damage The calculation method of damage in TM3 changes depending on the placement format of the monster card of the target monster. Here, the attacking monster is described as an attacking monster, and the attacking target monster is described as an opponent monster.

  When the monster card of the opponent's monster is a front side attack display, the outcome and damage and damage are calculated based on the attack power of the attacking monster and the attack power of the opponent monster. For example, if the attacking power of the attacking monster is higher than the attacking power of the opponent's monster, the opponent's monster is destroyed, and the numerical value for the attacking power which the attacking monster surpassed becomes the damage of the opponent user. Also, for example, if the attacking power of the attacking monster and the attacking power of the opponent monster are the same, then both monsters are destroyed in tandem. In this case, neither the turn user nor the other user receives damage. For example, if the attack power of the attacking monster is lower than the attack power of the opponent monster, the attacking monster is destroyed, and the numerical value for the attack power which the opponent monster has surpassed becomes the damage of the turn user.

  If the monster card of the opponent's monster is the front side defense indication or the back side defense indication, the outcome is calculated based on the attack power of the attacking monster and the defense strength of the opponent monster. In the case of the back side defense display, damage judgment processing is performed after being reversed so as to be the front side defense display. For example, if the attacking power of the attacking monster is higher than the defensive power of the opposing monster, the opposing monster is destroyed. In this case, neither the turn user nor the other user receives damage. Also, for example, if the attacking power of the attacking monster and the defensive power of the opposing monster are the same, neither monster is destroyed and both remain. In this case, neither the turn user nor the other user receives damage. Also, for example, if the attack power of the attacking monster is lower than the defensive power of the opponent monster, neither monster is destroyed and both remain. In this case, the number of defenses that the opponent's monster has surpassed is the turn user's damage.

  If there is no opponent's monster, the attacking monster can attack the opponent's user directly. In the case of direct attack, the attacking power of the attacking monster is the damage of the other user.

  After the damage calculation, TM4 is the timing to process the effect triggered by the battle. If the monster card on the back side defense indication is reversed in TM2 before damage calculation, the effect of "If this card is reversed" is processed. After the damage calculation, the effects of the cards described as “when battle damage is given”, “when battle damage is received”, “after damage calculation TM4”, or “when the battle is performed” are described in TM4 later. Activate based on the chain you are Basically, the effects of the other cards are not activated except for the effects of the counter 罠 card.

  At the end of the damage step TM5 is the timing at which the monster determined to be destroyed by battle is sent to the graveyard and the damage step S4-3 is ended. At the end of the damage step TM5, the effect of the card described as "when this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard" is activated based on a chain described later. Basically, the effects of the other cards are not activated except for the effects of the counter 罠 card.

  Note that among the five timings included in the damage step S4-3, at timings other than TM2 before the damage calculation, a chain to be described later can be assembled only once. For example, there are two effect monsters that have the effect of "If the opponent's monster attacks, discard this card from your hand when calculating its damage and activate it. The combat damage to yourself in that battle will be 0." Even if it is, if it is invalidated by a counter that has an effect such as "Discard one card and activate it. Deactivate and destroy the effect monster's effect", the second effect monster's The effect does not activate.

  The end step S4-4 is a step which is visited when the battle step S4-2 and the damage step S4-3 are repeated and there is no monster to be attacked. In this case, an effect in which the turn user declares that "the battle phase P4 is ended" is performed on the game image G1. Thus, the battle phase P4 ends.

  [2-4-5] The second main phase P5 is a phase that occurs only when the battle phase P4 is performed. The actions that the turn user can take in the second main phase P5 are basically the same as in the first main phase P3. For this reason, in the second main phase P5, actions such as summoning of monsters (placement of monster cards), change of arrangement form of monster cards, activation of effects of each card, and placement of magic cards and armor cards on the back side display etc. You can

  However, if the turn user performs an action with a limited number of times in the first main phase P3, the action can not be performed in the second main phase P5. For example, monsters are normally summoned only once per turn, so if you summon normally in the first main phase P3, you can not summon normally in the second main phase P5. It is also the second main phase P5 that you can Synchro Summon, Xcy's Summon or Pendulum Summon.

  [2-4-6] End phase P6 is a phase where the turn ends. In the end phase P6, an effect that the turn user declares the end of the turn is performed on the game image G1. If there are seven or more turn user's hand cards, discard the hand cards so that there are six.

  [2-5] Next, priority will be described. In each phase or step described above, the right to first activate the card is always on the turn user who is advancing the turn. Hereinafter, the right is referred to as the turn user's priority. As long as the turn user has priority, the opponent user can not activate the card first, except for the trigger effect which is activated voluntarily. When the turn user activates the card to activate the card, or when the turn user relinquishes the priority, the priority is automatically transferred to the other user. You must always give up your priority before the turn user can advance a phase or step. If the turn user activates the card and then terminates the step or turn, priority is transferred to the other user. The step or turn ends when the other user discards the priority.

  An action in which the priority of the turn user is not transferred to the other user is determined in advance. For example, the action includes: at the beginning of each phase or at the start declaration by the turn user, at the start of each step, immediately after the instant when the quick effect can be activated, when the monster is successfully summoned, the turn user's "chain is created. Summon no monsters, Summon monsters in Chain 1, change the placement format of monsters, declare an attack, place cards in reverse view, draw immediately after the end of processing, draw in P1 When

  [2-6] Next, card effect processing will be described. During the battle, there may be a trade-off between effects such as activating the effects of cards according to the effects of the opponent's cards. A chain, which will be described later, is generated to activate the effects, and each effect is sequentially processed.

  [2-6-1] The chain is a method for solving the exchange of effects such as magic cards and armor cards smoothly, and the action of activating another card in response to the activation of one card. It means that. From then on, it is called chain activation that another card is activated in response to the activation of one card.

  FIG. 18 shows the mechanism of the chain. As shown in FIG. 18, the card activated first is taken as a chain 1, and every time the chain is activated, the cards (chain blocks) activated with the chain 2, chain 3,... Are stacked. When chain activation is completed, processing of effects is started, and processing of effects is executed sequentially from the chain that was activated last. For example, when the last chain activated is the chain 5, processing of effects is executed in the order of the chain 5, the chain 4, the chain 3, the chain 2, and the chain 1.

  [2-6-2] The spell speed is set to the effects of the magic card, the agate card, and the effect monster card. There are three types of spelling speed: spelling speed 1, spelling speed 2 and spelling speed 3.

  Spell Speed 1 is the slowest card among spell speeds, and it is a card that can not be chain activated voluntarily to any other activation. For this reason, basically, there will never be more than two chains. The spell speed 1 corresponds to normal magic cards, equipped magic cards, field magic cards, ceremonial magic cards, permanent magic cards, and effect monster cards.

  Spell Speed 2 is a card that can be chained to Spell Speed 1 and Spell Speed 2. That is, cards that can be activated in response to activation of a card with spell speed 1 or spell speed 2 correspond to spell speed 2. Spell speed 2 corresponds to cards that can be activated regardless of timing and cards that can be activated during opponent's turn.

  Spell Speed 3 is the fastest spelled card that can be chained to any speed. Only cards with the same spell speed 3 can be used with spell speed 3 cards. Counter Spell Card corresponds to spell speed 3.

  [2-6-3] There are three types of effects that monsters have: activation effects, induction effects, and induction immediate effects.

  The activation effect is an effect that can be used by declaring the activation. The activation effect can basically be activated only in your main phase. The activation effect can only be activated if it has priority to activate spell speed 1 in the main phase of your turn. For example, even if the card is written once per turn, you can not activate the activation effect on the opponent's turn.

  The induction effect is an effect that is activated at the timing determined by the monster card, such as a monster card in which “Standby phase P2”, “When a monster is destroyed”, etc. are described. The induction effect is an effect that is easily detected and dealt with in advance by the other party, but it is also possible to pull out the activation condition and activate it at the targeted timing depending on the effects of other cards and your own play.

  The triggered immediate effect is a special effect that can be triggered at any time in the opponent's turn although the timing of use is limited. Spell speed is set to 2 despite the fact that the triggered immediate effect is only an effect monster card. The triggered immediate effect is hard to notice the presence of a card like a 罠 card, and can give an unexpected effect to the opponent.

  [2-6-4] For example, conditions such as "destructed" and "sent to the graveyard" are defined as activation conditions, and there are many cards or effects that can be activated triggered by a specific action. Among these cards or effects, the option effect of the trigger condition of "when ..." can only be triggered at the timing immediately after the trigger condition is satisfied. The optional effect is an effect described as “... Can be made” on the card, and is an effect capable of selecting whether to activate or not.

  Such an arbitrary effect may be in a state where the activation is not permitted depending on the arbitrary effect even if the activation condition is satisfied. In this case, if another process is performed after that, the effect can no longer be activated later. In this embodiment, this state is referred to as "missing timing".

  The effects are roughly divided into three types: "forced effects", "time optional effects", and "case optional effects". The "forced effect" is an effect described as "..." on the card. The forcing effect is an effect that is triggered without question and answer regardless of the intention of the first user or the second user when the triggering condition is satisfied. As for the "arbitrary effect", the aforementioned "when ..." is an arbitrary effect of the activation condition. As for "arbitrary effect in case", "when ..." is an arbitrary effect of the activation condition.

  In the present embodiment, the effect of the card described as "when ..." and the effect of the card described as "when ..." are distinguished. "When ..." means that it can be used only immediately after the trigger condition is satisfied. For this reason, even if the activation condition is satisfied during the process such as some effect or chain processing, the effect of the card may not be used. On the other hand, "when ..." means that it can be used when the trigger condition is satisfied. "If ..." is different from "when ...", and if the activation condition is satisfied in the middle of processing an effect or a chain, use the effect of the card after the end of those processing. can do. That is, the effect of "when ..." can be activated not only immediately after the trigger condition is satisfied but also after that.

  As described above, "forced effect" is forcibly activated, and "arbitrary effect" is activated after the end of processing such as effects and chains, so "forced effect" and "arbitrary effect" are in principle the principle. As you will not miss the timing. On the other hand, the "temporary effect" is triggered only immediately after the trigger condition is met, so the timing may be missed depending on the situation.

  [2-6-4-1] First, processing in the case where the timing of the effect is not missed will be described. Here is an example of an effect monster “Holy Bird Crane” that has the effect “When this card is Special Summoned, the controller of this card draws one card.” As mentioned above, the effect of the "Holy Bird Crane" is the forced effect of "...".

  For example, it is assumed that a first user activates a magic card "cyclone" having fast-flow magic "a single magic card in the field can be activated as a target. Destroy that card" as the chain 1.

  Then, in Chain 2, the second user can “Activate this card targeting one monster in his graveyard. Special summon that monster in attack mode. When this card leaves the field, that monster is destroyed. This card is destroyed when that monster is destroyed. Suppose that you activate a "Card of the Living Dead" with a permanent bond, targeting the "Holy Bird Crane" in the graveyard.

  If there is no card that the first user and the second user want to chain with each other, the processing shifts to the effect processing as described above. Since the effect processing is executed in order from the top of the chain, the effect processing of chain 2 is executed, and the "Holy Dead Call" calls for special summoning "Holy Bird Crane". At this stage, the conditions for triggering the "Holy Bird Crane" effect are satisfied.

  Next, the effect processing of the chain 1 is executed, and the “cyclone” is an effect of destroying the card as described above, so the timing changes to “when the card is destroyed”. When the second user destroys the magic card or the spear card by the effect of "cyclone", the series of chain effect processing ends. Immediately after that, since the effect of the "Holy Bird Crane" is forcibly activated, the second user will draw one card from the deck in the main deck zone Z5B. In this way, "Holy Bird Crane" is a forced effect, so we can not miss the timing of the effect.

  The following three patterns are particularly likely to miss the timing of effects. The first pattern is the case where the activation condition is satisfied in the chain 2 and thereafter. The second pattern is that the activation condition is satisfied in the middle of the series of effects. The third pattern is when the trigger condition is satisfied by being sent to the graveyard as a material of cost, release, or synchro summon.

  [2-6-4-2] First, the first pattern will be described. Here is an example of the “Yellow Gadget” effect monster, which has the effect “This card can be activated when it is successfully summoned or Special Summoned. Add one green gadget from the deck to your hand.” The effect of "Yellow Gadget" is "Time Arbitrary Effect" of "... Time".

  For example, it is assumed that the first user activates the "cyclone" as the chain 1. Then, in the chain 2, it is assumed that the second user activates the “living dead call” for the “yellow gadget” in the graveyard. If there is no card that the first user and the second user want to chain with each other, the processing shifts to effect processing.

  First, the effect processing of the chain 2 is executed, and the "Yellow Gadget" is specially summoned by "Living of the Living Dead". At this stage, it was time to activate the "Yellow Gadget" effect, but because it is in the chain, this effect can not be activated.

  Next, the effect processing of chain 1 is executed, the effect of "cyclone" is activated, and the timing changes to "when the card is destroyed". When the second user destroys the magic card or the spear card by the effect of "cyclone", the series of chain effect processing ends. Unlike the forced effect of the “Holy Bird Crane”, “Yellow Gadget” is “Any Time Effect”, and after the end of the chain, it is not the timing when the “Yellow Gadget” effect is activated. The effect does not activate. Therefore, the first user can not add the "green gadget" to the hand. The above is the first pattern for releasing the timing of the effect.

  [2-6-4-3] Next, the second pattern will be described. Here, it has the effect, "It can be activated when this card is successfully summoned. Special summon 1 monster of level 4 or less from the hand. If this effect is activated, this card becomes a defense indication." Take the Goblin de Berg effect monster as an example. The effect of "Goblin de Berg" is "a random effect of time" called "... time".

  For example, when the first user summons "Goblindberg", the effect is activated and the effect processing is performed. In this case, it is assumed that the “green gadget” is specially summoned from the hand of the first user by the “Goblin de Berg” effect processing. "Green Gadget" is an effect monster that has the effect of "It can be activated when this card is successfully summoned / special summoned. Add one red gadget from the deck to your hand." The effect of the "green gadget" is the "any time effect" of "... time".

  When "Green Gadget" is Special Summoned, the trigger condition of "Green Gadget" is satisfied. Then, due to the effect of "Goblindberg", "Goblindberg" changes to the front side defensive display, and the timing changes to "when the monster becomes defensive display".

  As described above, the timing when the effect can be activated immediately after the series of processing of "Goblin de Berg" is completed, but immediately after satisfying the activation condition of "Green Gadget", it is due to the series of effects of "Goblin de Berg" Since the processing has been entered, the "green gadget", which is an "arbitrary effect", misses the activation timing. Note that the series of effects may end prematurely if the subsequent processing is impossible, in which case the timing is not missed. The above is the second pattern for releasing the timing of the effect.

  [2-6-4-4] Next, the third pattern is described. Here, an effect monster named "Pattern Batter" has the effect of "When this card on your field is sent to the graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Insect-type monster from your hand." Take an example. The effect of the "per batting batter" is the "any time effect" of "... time".

  For example, it is assumed that the first user releases a "permanent batter" for advance summoning. In this case, since the "percussion batter" is sent to the graveyard, the activation condition is satisfied. Then, the monster in the first user's hand is advanced summoned, and the timing changes to “when advancing advanced summons”. In the above case, although it is not the processing of the chain, the sequence of advance summoning occurs after release, and the activation timing of the "percussion batter" which is the "arbitrary effect" is missed. The above is the third pattern for releasing the timing of the effect.

  In the present embodiment, placing a magic card on the front side from the hand to the magic and eyebrow zone Z3 or making a magic card or an eyebrow card placed on the back side in the magic and eyebrow zone Z3 on the front side Is described as the activation of the card. On the other hand, effects activated when permanent magic cards and permanent armor cards are placed face-up, or those activated when destroyed or sent to the graveyard are described as activation of effects and activation of cards I described separately.

  [2-7] The card game described above has the following features.

  In the card game described above, not only the first user duel field F1 and the second user duel field F2, but also the extra monster zone Z1 is set in the duel field F as a common area. Has a first configuration that improves the strategicity of the card game.

  [2-7-2] Further, in the card game described above, when the link monster card associated with the link marker M31 is arranged in the extra monster zone Z1, the link marker M31 in the main monster zone Z2 is used. It has a 2nd structure which improves the strategic property in a card game by receiving arrangement | positioning of the extra monster card | curd to the main monster zone Z2 corresponding to the direction to which it points.

  [2-7-3] Furthermore, in the card game described above, it is necessary to set an area dedicated to the pendulum monster card by enabling the pendulum monster card to be placed in the magic and Zen zone Z3 (pendulum monster zone). There is a third configuration that eliminates and eliminates the space required for Pendulum Monster Cards.

  [3. Functional Block] The first configuration, the second configuration, and the third configuration described above will be described in detail.

  [3-1] First, the first configuration will be described. FIG. 19 is a functional block diagram showing functional blocks related to the first configuration. As shown in FIG. 19, the game system 1 includes, as functional blocks related to the first configuration, a data storage unit 100, a first user area setting unit 110, a second user area setting unit 120, a shared area setting unit 130, a first It includes a placement control unit 140, a second placement control unit 150, a third placement control unit 160, and a game processing execution unit 170.

  For example, the data storage unit 100 is realized by at least one of the storage unit 12, the database DB, and the storage unit 32, and the other functional blocks are realized by at least one of the control unit 11 and the control unit 31. . A storage unit of another device accessible from game terminal 10 may be used instead of (or together with) storage unit 12.

  [3-1-1] The data storage unit 100 stores data necessary to execute a card game. Here, user list data D101, card list data D102, possessed card list data D103, deck data D104, extra deck data D105, game field data D106, and game situation data D107 as an example of data stored in data storage unit 100. Will be explained.

  [3-1-1-1] FIG. 20 shows an example of the user list data D101. The user list data D101 is data indicating a list of users who use the game system 1. As shown in FIG. 20, the user list data D101 includes "user ID", "user name", and "competition record" fields. The “user ID” field indicates identification information that uniquely identifies each user. The "user name" field indicates the name of the user. The "Score" field indicates the user's score. The user list data D101 may include fields indicating other information related to the user.

  [3-1-1-2] FIG. 21 shows an example of the card list data D102. The card list data D102 is data indicating a list of all cards provided in the card game. As shown in FIG. 21, the card list data D102 includes fields as described below.

  The "card number" field indicates identification information that uniquely identifies a card provided in the card game. For example, the card number N24 shown in FIG. 4 is registered in the "card number" field. The "card name" field indicates the name of the card. The "card type" field indicates the type of card. In the case of the above-mentioned card game, any of a normal monster card, an effect monster card, a link monster card, a pendulum monster card, an xyz monster card, a synchro monster card, a fused monster card, or a ritual monster card, a magic card, and a bribe card Information indicating whether or not is registered in the "card type" field. Note that one card may correspond to a plurality of the above card types. For example, there is a monster card which is a combined monster card and is also an effect monster card.

  The "summoning condition", "level", "attribute", "tribe", "attack power", "defensive power", and "monster information" fields indicate information on a monster card. Although information is registered in these fields for monster cards, no information is registered in these fields for magic cards or armor cards.

  The "summoning condition" field indicates a condition for placing a monster card in the game field. The "Level", "Attribute", and "Class" fields indicate the monster card's level, attribute, and race. In addition, with regard to the X's monster card, the rank is registered in the “Level” field instead of the level. The "Attack Power" and "Defense Power" fields indicate the monster card's ATK and DEF. As for linked monster cards, the value of LINK is registered in the "defensive strength" field instead of defensive strength. The "monster information" field shows detailed information on the monster card. For example, the effect of the monster card, the condition that needs to be satisfied to exhibit the effect, and other information of the monster card are registered in the "monster information" field. Further, with regard to the link monster card, information indicating the direction indicated by the link marker 31 is registered in the "monster information" field.

  The "magic type" and "magic information" fields indicate information about the magic card. Information is registered in these fields for magic cards, but no information is registered in these fields for monster cards or armor cards.

  The "magic type" field indicates the type of magic card. In the case of the above-mentioned card game, information indicating whether it is normal magic, ceremonial magic, permanent magic, equipment magic, field magic, or hasty magic is registered in the "magic type" field. The "magic information" field shows detailed information on the magic card. For example, information such as an effect of a magic card and an activation condition of the effect is registered in the "magic information" field. As for the pendulum monster card, information such as pendulum effect and pendulum scale is registered in the "magic information" field.

  The “Trow type” and “Trow information” fields indicate information on the T-card. Although information is registered in these fields for the 罠 card, no information is registered in these fields for the monster card or magic card.

  The "Trow type" field indicates the type of the T-card. In the case of the above-mentioned card game, information indicating whether the game is a normal game, a permanent game, or a counter game is registered in the "waste type" field. The "罠 information" field shows detailed information of the 罠 card. For example, information such as an effect of a bribe card and an activation condition of the effect is registered in the “debris information” field.

  [3-1-1-3] FIG. 22 shows an example of the owned card list data D103. The owned card list data D103 is stored for each user (stored in association with the user ID of each user), and shows a list of cards owned by each user. For example, each user can obtain a card by performing a lottery in exchange for a virtual currency (in-game currency) or points, or obtain a card from another user by exchange or the like. In addition, the acquisition method of a card | curd is not restricted to these, A various method is employable. As shown in FIG. 22, the owned card list data D103 includes "serial number" and "card number" fields. The "serial number" field indicates identification information that uniquely identifies each card owned by the user. The "card number" field indicates the card number of the card owned by the user. When the user owns a plurality of the same cards, the card numbers of the plurality of the same cards are the same but the serial numbers are different.

  [3-1-1-4] FIG. 23 shows an example of the deck data D104. The deck data D104 is stored for each user (stored in association with the user ID of each user), and indicates a list of cards included in the deck constructed by each user. That is, among the cards owned by the user, a list of serial numbers of cards incorporated in the deck is registered in the deck data D104.

  [3-1-1-5] FIG. 24 shows an example of the extra deck data D105. The extra deck data D 105 is stored for each user (stored in association with the user ID of each user), and shows a list of cards included in the extra deck constructed by the user. That is, among the cards owned by the user, a list of serial numbers of cards incorporated in the extra deck is registered in the extra deck data D105.

  The game field data D106 is data defining each area set in the game field. For example, in the above-described example of the card game, data indicating the duel field F shown in FIG. 3 is stored as game field data D106. That is, the first user Duel field F1 (main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, magic and armor zones Z3A to Z3E, graveyard Z4A, main deck zone Z5A, field zone Z6A, extra deck zone Z7A), and the second user Duel field F2 ( Data defining the main monster zone Z2F to Z2J, magic zone Z3F to Z3J, graveyard Z4B, main deck zone Z5B, field zone Z6B, extra deck zone Z7B), and extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B is game field data D106 Is stored as When the exclusion area zone for placing cards excluded from the game is included in the duel field F, the data defining the exclusion area zone is also included in the game field data D106.

The game situation data D107 is data indicating the current situation of the card game (competition). In the case of the card game described above, the game situation data D107 includes the following data.
(1) data indicating which turn the current turn is (2) data indicating which turn the current turn is the first user or the second user (3) the first user and the second user (4) 1st user duel field F1 (main monster zone Z2A to Z2E, magic and armor zone Z3A to Z3E, graveyard Z4A, main deck zone Z5A, field zone Z6A, extra deck Data indicating the current state of zone Z7A) (5) Second user Duel field F2 (main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, magic and armor zones Z3F to Z3J, graveyard Z4B, main deck zone Z5B, field zone Z6B, extra deck zone Z7B Data indicating the current state of) (6) Extramons Zon Z1A, data indicating the current state of Z1B

  Data of (4) to (6) are data indicating whether or not a card is disposed in each zone, data indicating a serial number of a card disposed in each zone, and a card disposed in each zone Data indicating the arrangement form (front side display or back side display, attack display or defensive display, etc.).

  In addition to the data described above, for example, image data of each card, battle history data of each user, and the like are stored in the data storage unit 100.

  [3-1-2] The first user area setting unit 110 sets the first user area in the game field. For example, the first user area setting unit 110 sets a plurality of first user areas.

  The second user area setting unit 120 sets a second user area in the game field. For example, the second user area setting unit 120 sets a plurality of second user areas.

  The shared area setting unit 130 sets the shared area in the game field separately from the first user area and the second user area. The shared area setting unit sets a smaller number of shared areas than the number of first user areas or second user areas. For example, the shared area setting unit 130 sets a first shared area and a second shared area.

  The first user area setting unit 110 and the second user area setting unit 120 set the first user area and the second user area so as to face each other. The shared area setting unit 130 sets a shared area between the first user area and the second user area.

  Here, the "game field" is a virtual field for playing a game using a card. That is, the “game field” is a virtual field in which cards of the first user and the second user are arranged. In the above-described example of the card game, the duel field F corresponds to an example of the “game field”.

  A "card" is a virtual game object corresponding to a card. For example, a "card" is a virtual game object corresponding to a card in a trading card game. Each card is associated with various information of the card. For example, performance information indicating the performance of a card is associated with each card. Specifically, strength information indicating the strength of the card (level, aggression, defensive strength, etc.), effect information indicating the effects possessed by the card (eg, monster effect, magic effect, decoy effect, etc.), or Condition information or the like indicating conditions to be satisfied for placing a card in the game field is associated with each card as "performance information". In addition, scarce information indicating card scarcity may be associated with each card.

  The “first user area” is a dedicated area for the first user, which is an area for placing a card of the first user. Specifically, the “first user area” is an area for arranging the first type card of the first user, and is an area in which the arrangement of the second type card of the first user is restricted. The individual areas (zones, squares, blocks, etc.) for placing cards of the first user correspond to the "first user area". The second user's card is not placed in the "first user area". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E in the first user duel field F1 corresponds to an example of the "first user area".

  The “second user area” is a dedicated area for the second user, which is an area for placing a card of the second user. Specifically, the “second user area” is an area for arranging the first type card of the second user, and is an area in which the arrangement of the second type card of the second user is restricted. The individual areas (zones, squares, blocks, etc.) for arranging the second user's card correspond to the "second user area". The first user's card is not placed in the "second user area". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J in the second user Duel field F2 corresponds to an example of the “second user area”.

  The “type 1 card” is a card that can be placed in the first user area or the second user area and can not be placed in the shared area. In the above-described example of the card game, the monster cards in the hand C1, C2 of the first user and the second user correspond to an example of the "first type card".

  The “type 2 card” is a card that can be placed in the common area and the placement in the first user area or the second user area is limited. For example, a "type 2 card" is a card that is more useful than a type 1 card. A “card of higher usefulness than a first class card” means, for example, a card having higher performance than a first class card (ie, a card associated with performance information indicating higher performance than a first class card) It is. In the above-described example of the card game, the extra monster card on the extra deck zones Z7A and Z7B corresponds to an example of the "type 2 card". As described above, if the pendulum monster is summoned by placing a pendulum monster card from the hand C1 or C2 into the main monster zone Z2, then if the pendulum monster is destroyed, the corresponding pendulum monster card is placed in the extra deck zone Z7. Sent to and placed face up. In this case, the pendulum monster card placed in the extra deck zone Z7 can be placed in the extra monster zone Z1, but can not be placed in the main monster zone Z2. Therefore, with regard to the pendulum monster card, it corresponds to an example of a "type 1 card" in the hand C1, C2 and an example of a "type 2 card" in the extra deck zone Z7. It will be equivalent.

  The “shared area” is an area shared by the first user and the second user. In other words, the “shared area” is an area in which the card of the first user can be arranged, and in which the card of the second user can also be arranged. In the above-described example of the card game, each of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B corresponds to an example of the "common area". For example, the extra monster zone Z1A corresponds to an example of the "first shared area", and the extra monster zone Z1B corresponds to an example of the "second shared area".

  “Setting a common area separately from the first user area and the second area” means setting an area different from the first user area and the second user area as the common area.

  “Setting the shared area between the first user area and the second user area” means setting the shared area so that the first user area and the second user area face each other across the shared area. is there.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the first user area setting unit 110 sets the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E in the duel field F. The second user area setting unit 120 sets the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J in the duel field F. The shared area setting unit 130 sets the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B in the duel field F.

  [3-1-3] The first placement control unit 140 receives the placement of the first-type card of the first user in the first user area, and places the first-type card of the first user in the first user area. Limit.

  The second placement control unit 150 receives the placement of the first type card of the second user in the second user area, and limits the placement of the second type card of the second user in the second placement area.

  The third placement control unit 160 receives the placement of the second type card of the first user or the second user in the shared area.

  Here, "accepting the placement of cards in the area" means placing cards in the area according to the user's placement instruction. That is, placing a card designated by the user. Alternatively, the card designated by the user may be placed in the area designated by the user.

  Also, "to limit the placement of cards in the area" is to prohibit placement of cards in the area. In principle, the arrangement of the card in the area may be prohibited, and the arrangement of the card in the area may be permitted only when a predetermined condition is satisfied.

  In addition, the third placement control unit 160 may be configured so that, when the first user's second type card is placed in one of the first shared area and the second shared area, the other of the first shared area and the second shared area. Restrict the placement of the second user card of the first user.

  Here, “when the second type card of the first user is arranged in one of the first shared area and the second shared area, the first user to the other of the first shared area and the second shared area is In the case of restricting the arrangement of the type 2 card, “when the type 2 card of the first user is arranged in the first common area (or the second common area), the second type card of the first user is (2) To prohibit placement in the second shared area (or the first shared area) and allow placement of the second type card of the second user in the second shared area (or the first shared area). In addition, when the second type card of the first user is arranged in the first shared area (or the second shared area), in principle, the second type card of the first user is the second shared area (or the first shared area). To prohibit placement in the area), and release the prohibition only when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and place the second type card of the first user in the second shared area (or the first shared area). Placement may also be permitted.

  Similarly, when the second user type 2 card of the second user is placed in one of the first shared area and the second shared area, the third placement control unit 160 generates the first shared area and the second shared area. Restrict the placement of the second user's second card to the other.

  Here, “when the second type card of the second user is arranged in one of the first shared area and the second shared area, the second user to the other of the first shared area and the second shared area is In the case of restricting the arrangement of the second type card, “when the second type card of the second user is arranged in the first common area (or the second common area), the second type card of the second user is (2) To prohibit placement in the second shared area (or the first shared area) and allow placement of the second user card of the first user in the second shared area (or the first shared area). When the second user's second type card is placed in the first shared area (or the second shared area), in principle, the second user's second type card is used as the second shared area (or the first shared area). To prohibit placement in the area), and release the prohibition only when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and place the second type card of the second user in the second shared area (or the first shared area). Placement may also be permitted.

  In the example of the card game described above, the first placement control unit 140 sets the monster card (an example of the first type card) in the hand C1 of the first user to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the first user area) Accept to arrange. Further, the first placement control unit 140 restricts placement of the extra monster card (an example of the second type card) on the extra deck zone Z7A in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the first user area). .

  The second placement control unit 150 receives the placement of the monster card (an example of the first type card) in the hand C2 of the second user in the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J (an example of the second user area). In addition, the second placement control unit 150 restricts placement of the extra monster card (an example of the second type card) on the extra deck zone Z7B in the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J (an example of the second user area). .

  The third placement control unit 160 receives the placement of the extra monster card (an example of the second type card) on the extra deck zone Z7A in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the shared area). In addition, the third placement control unit 160 receives the placement of the extra monster card (an example of the second type card) on the extra deck zone Z7B in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the common area).

  In addition, when the first user's extra monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1A, the third placement control unit 160 in principle prohibits the first user's extra monster card from being placed in the extra monster zone Z1B. It is accepted that the first user's extra monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1B only when the predetermined condition is satisfied (see FIG. 9).

  Similarly, when the second user's extra monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1A, in principle, the third placement control unit 160 prohibits the second user's extra monster card from being placed in the extra monster zone Z1B. It is accepted that the second user's extra monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1B only when the predetermined condition is satisfied.

  [3-1-4] The game process execution unit 170 executes the game process based on the cards arranged in the first user area, the second user area, or the common area.

  Here, "performing game processing" is to execute game processing of a card game. For example, it is to exhibit the performance indicated by the performance information associated with the placed card. Specifically, for example, the effect indicated by the effect information associated with the placed card is exhibited. Alternatively, an attack on one of the first user and the second user may be performed on the basis of strength information (aggression strength, defensive strength, etc.) associated with the placed card. Here, for example, the “attack from the first user to the second user” may be an attack on a card placed by the second user, or an attack on the second user (the second user himself or The point of the second user's own character may be reduced). The same applies to "the attack from the second user to the first user".

  In the above-described example of the card game, for example, the game processing execution unit 170 generates the main monster zone from the monster card of the first user placed in any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E based on an instruction from the first user. Execute an attack process on the second user's monster card placed in Z2F to Z2J, etc. Alternatively, based on an instruction from the first user, the game process execution unit 170 executes a process of exerting the effect of the magic card or the eyebrow card arranged in any of the magic / teaching zones Z3A to Z3E. Alternatively, based on an instruction from the first user, the game processing execution unit 170 is arranged in the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, etc. from the first user's extra monster card arranged in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. Execute attack processing to the second user's monster card.

  Further, for example, the game processing execution unit 170 is a first user arranged from the monster card arranged in any of the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the like based on an instruction from the second user. Perform attack processing on monster cards. Alternatively, based on an instruction from the second user, the game process execution unit 170 executes a process of causing the effects of the magic card or the eyebrow card arranged in any of the magic / soot zones Z3F to Z3J. Alternatively, based on an instruction from the second user, the game processing execution unit 170 is arranged in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, etc. from the second user's extra monster card arranged in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. Execute attack processing on the monster card of the first user.

  [3-2] Next, the second configuration will be described. FIG. 25 is a functional block diagram showing functional blocks related to the second configuration. As shown in FIG. 25, the game system 1 includes, as functional blocks related to the second configuration, a data storage unit 100, a first area setting unit 110A, a second area setting unit 120A, a third area setting unit 130A, and a first arrangement. It includes a control unit 140A, a second arrangement control unit 150A, a third arrangement control unit 160A, and a game process execution unit 170A.

  For example, the data storage unit 100 is realized by at least one of the storage unit 12, the database DB, and the storage unit 32, and the other functional blocks are realized by at least one of the control unit 11 and the control unit 32. . A storage unit of another device accessible from game terminal 10 may be used instead of (or together with) storage unit 12. The data storage unit 100 is the same as the first configuration (FIG. 19), and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

  [3-2-1] The first area setting unit 110A sets a plurality of first areas in the game field. The second area setting unit 120A sets the second area in the game field.

  The first area setting unit 110A and the second area setting unit 120A set the plurality of first areas and the second areas such that the first areas are located in at least three directions as viewed from the second area. .

  Here, the “game field” and the “card” are the same as in the first configuration, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

  The “first area” is an area in which the arrangement of the first type card of the first user is possible, and an area in which the arrangement of the second type card of the first user is limited. It is a dedicated area for the first user, and the card of the second user is not arranged in the first area. The individual areas (zones, squares, blocks, etc.) for placing cards of the first user correspond to "first areas". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E in the first user duel field F1 corresponds to an example of the “first area”.

  The “second area” is an area where the first user's second type card can be arranged. This is an area where the arrangement of the first user's first type card is limited. The “second area” may be a shared area between the first user and the second user, or may be a dedicated area for the first user. That is, the “second area” may be an area in which the second type card of the first user can be arranged, and in which the second type card of the second user can be arranged, or It may be an area where only one user's second type card can be placed. In the above-described example of the card game, each of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B corresponds to an example of the “second area”.

  “The plurality of first areas and the second areas are set so that the first areas are located in at least three directions as viewed from the second area, respectively” means, for example, the plurality of first areas It is set so that the first area is located at the lower left, lower, and lower right of the second area below the two areas. Alternatively, the plurality of first areas may be set so that the first areas are located above the second area and at the upper left, upper, and upper right of the second area. Alternatively, the plurality of first regions may be set so that the first regions are located on the left side of the second region and on the upper left, the left, and the lower left of the second region. Alternatively, the plurality of first areas may be set such that the first areas are located on the right side of the second area and on the upper right, the right, and the lower right of the second area.

  In the above-described example of the card game, as shown in FIG. 3, main monster zones Z2A, Z2B, Z2C (an example of the first area) are located at the lower left, lower and lower right of the extra monster zone Z1A (an example of the second area). ) Is located. Similarly, main monster zones Z2C, Z2D and Z2E (an example of a first area) are located at the lower left, lower and lower right of the extra monster zone Z1B (an example of the second area).

  The “first user's first type card” is a card of the first user that can be placed in the first area and the placement in the second area is limited. In the above-described example of the card game, the monster card in the hand C1 of the first user corresponds to an example of the “first type card of the first user”.

  The “first user's second type card” is a card of the first user that can be placed in the second area and the placement in the first area is restricted. In the above-described example of the card game, the first user's extra monster card on the extra deck zone Z7A corresponds to an example of the "type 2 card". As described above, if the pendulum monster is summoned by placing the pendulum monster card from the hand C1 to any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, then if the pendulum monster is destroyed, the pendulum monster card is an extra. It is sent to the deck zone Z7A and placed face up. In this case, the pendulum monster cards placed in the extra deck zone Z7A can be placed in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, but can not be placed in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the magic and Zen zones Z3A to Z3E. . Therefore, with regard to the pendulum monster card, it corresponds to an example of a "type 1 card" in the hand C1, and corresponds to an example of a "type 2 card" in the extra deck zone Z7A. It will be.

  [3-2-2] The third area setting unit 130A sets a plurality of third areas in the game field. Further, the third area setting unit 130A and the second area setting unit 120A are configured such that the third areas are located in at least three directions as viewed from the second area, and the plurality of third areas and the second areas are divided. Set

  Here, the “third area” is an area in which the arrangement of the first type card of the second user is possible, and is an area in which the arrangement of the second type card of the second user is limited. It is a dedicated area for the second user, and the card of the first user is not arranged in the third area. The individual areas (zones, squares, blocks, etc.) for placing cards of the second user correspond to the "third area". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J in the second user Duel field F2 corresponds to an example of the “third area”.

  The “first type card of the second user” is a card of the first user that can be placed in the third area and the placement in the second area is limited. In the above-described example of the card game, the monster card in the hand C2 of the second user corresponds to an example of the “first type card of the second user”.

  The “second-type user card of the second user” is a card of the second user that can be placed in the second area and whose placement in the third area is restricted. In the above-described example of the card game, the second user's extra monster card on the extra deck zone Z7B corresponds to an example of the "second type card".

  Note that “the plurality of third regions and the second region are set so that the third regions are located in at least three directions when viewed from the second region” means that “at least the third regions are viewed from the second region” The first regions are positioned in the three directions, respectively, and the plurality of first regions and the second regions are set. In the above-described example of the card game, main monster zones Z2F, Z2G, and Z2H (an example of a third area) are located at the upper left, the upper, and the upper right of the extra monster zone Z1A (an example of the second area). Similarly, main monster zones Z2H, Z2I and Z2J (an example of a third area) are located on the upper left, upper and upper right of the extra monster zone Z1B (an example of the second area).

  [3-2-3] The first placement control unit 140A accepts the placement of the first type card of the first user in the first area, and restricts the placement of the second type card of the first user in the first area Do.

  Third placement control unit 160A accepts placement of the first type card of the second user in the third area, and limits placement of the second type card of the second user in the third area.

  The second placement control unit 150A receives the placement of the second type card of the first user in the second area, and limits the placement of the first type card of the first user in the second area. In addition, the second placement control unit 150A receives the placement of the second type card of the second user in the second area, and limits the placement of the first type card of the second user in the second area.

  Here, “accept the placement of cards in the area” and “limit the placement of cards in the area” are the same as in the first configuration, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the first placement control unit 140A sets the monster card (an example of the first type card of the first user) in the hand C1 of the first user to the main monster zone in the first user duel field F1. It arrange | positions to Z2A-Z2E (an example of 1st area | region) is received.

  In addition, the third placement control unit 160A is configured to set a monster card (an example of a first type card of the second user) in the hand C2 of the second user to main monster zones Z2F to Z2J (third one) in the second user duel field F2. Accepting placement in an example of an area).

  Further, the second placement control unit 150A is configured to set the extra monster card of the first user on the extra deck zone Z7A (an example of the second type card of the first user) or the second user on the extra deck zone Z7B. It is accepted that the extra monster card (an example of the second type card of the second user) is arranged in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the second area).

  [3-2-4] In particular, when the second type card of the first user is placed in the second area, the first placement control unit 140 of the second type card of the plurality of first areas The first area specified based on the parameter is set as an area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the first user.

  Here, the “parameter of the second type card” is information associated with the second type card, and is used as a basis for specifying the first area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card. . For example, “parameter of second type card” includes a direction parameter indicating one or more directions. Here, the “direction parameter” is, for example, information indicating one or more of eight directions (or four directions). The parameters (such as direction parameters) used as a basis for specifying the first area for receiving the second type card arrangement may be associated with some second type cards, or all second type cards May be associated with For example, when the parameter used as the basis is the direction parameter, among the second type cards, a second type card to which no direction parameter is associated may be present or may not be present. .

  The “first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card” is, for example, a second area in which the second type card is arranged among a plurality of first areas, and the second area of the second type card This is a first area specified based on the parameters. Specifically, for example, it is a first area selected based on the parameters of the second type card among the first areas adjacent to the second area in which the second type card is arranged. For example, it is a first area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card among the plurality of first areas. Here, “the first area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card” refers to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card when viewed from the second area where the second type card is arranged. It is a first area located. Specifically, for example, among the first areas adjacent to the second area in which the second type card is disposed, they are located in the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card when viewed from the second area. It is a first area.

  “Setting as the area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the first user” means setting the state where the arrangement of the second type card of the first user to the specified first area is permitted.

  “When the second type card is arranged in the second area, the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card is set as the area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the first user For example, in the turn of the first user in which the second type card is arranged in the second area, the second type of the first user is identified in the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card. Allowing cards to be placed. Alternatively, only in the turn of the first user in which placement of the second type card in the second area is performed, the second type of the first user is identified in the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card. It may be to allow placement of the card. Alternatively, in the turn of the first user in which placement of the second type card in the second area is performed, placement of the user's second type card in the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card It may be possible to limit the placement of the second type card of the first user in the first area in the subsequent first user's turn. When the second type card arranged in the second area is removed by attack or the like, the arrangement of the second type card of the first user in the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card is You may make it restrict without receiving.

  Furthermore, when the second type card of the first user is placed in the first area, the first placement control unit 140A is specified based on the parameters of the second type card of the plurality of first areas. The first area is set as an area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the first user.

  Here, the “first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card” means, for example, a first area where the second type card is arranged among a plurality of first areas, and the second area This is a first area specified based on the seed card parameters. Specifically, for example, it is a first area selected based on the parameters of the second type card among other first areas adjacent to the first area in which the second type card is arranged. For example, it is a first area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card among the plurality of first areas. Here, “the first area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card” refers to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card when viewed from the first area in which the second type card is arranged. It is another first area located. Specifically, for example, among the other first areas adjacent to the first area where the second type card is arranged, the direction of the second type card when viewed from the first area where the second type card is arranged It is another 1st field located in the direction which a parameter shows.

  “When the first type second card of the first user is placed in the first area, the first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card of the plurality of first areas is determined by the first user For example, the parameter of the second type card is set in the turn of the first user in which the second type card of the first user is disposed in the first area. It is possible to arrange the second user's second type card in the other first area specified on the basis of. Alternatively, only in the turn of the first user in which the first user's second type card is placed in the first area, the first user may specify another first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card. One user may be allowed to place a second-type card. Alternatively, in the first user's turn in which placement of the first user's second type card in the first area is performed, the other first area specified based on the parameters of the second type card is subjected to the first Restricting the placement of the user's second-type card without allowing it to be placed, and placing the first-user's second-type card in the other first area identified above in the subsequent first user's turn It may be acceptable. In addition, if the second user's second type card placed in the first area is removed by attack or the like, the first user's second type card to the other first area specified above is not accepted. It may be limited.

  In the example of the card game described above, the link monster card (an example of the second type card) of the first user, which is a type of extra monster card, is arranged in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the second area) The first placement control unit 140A selects the main monster zone in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card among the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the plurality of first areas) by the first user. Set to a zone where it is possible to place extra monster cards. Furthermore, when the link monster card of the first user is placed in the main monster zone where it has become possible to place the extra monster card of the first user, the first placement control unit 140A selects the link marker of the link monster card. The main monster zone in the direction indicated by M31 is also set to a zone where the first user's extra monster card can be placed.

  For example, the link marker M31 of the link monster card (decode / talker) shown in FIG. 6 indicates the lower left, lower right, and upper directions. When this link monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1A by the first user, the extra monster card of the first user can be placed in the main monster zones Z2A and Z2C at the lower left and lower right of the extra monster zone Z1A. become. Also, in this state, when the link monster card (honeybot) shown in FIG. 7 is placed in the main monster zone Z2C by the first user, the link marker M31 of this link monster card points to the left or right. Therefore, it becomes possible to arrange the first user's extra monster card also in the main monster zones Z2B and Z2D located on the left and right of the main monster zone Z2C.

  The third placement control unit 160A may have the same function as that of the first placement control unit 140A described here. For example, when the second user's link monster card (an example of the second type card) is placed in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the second area), the third placement control unit 160A selects the main monster zone Z2F. Set the main monster zone in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card among the zones Z2J (an example of a plurality of third areas) to a zone where the second user's extra monster card can be placed. You may Furthermore, when the link monster card of the second user is placed in the main monster zone where it has become possible to place the extra monster card of the second user, the third placement control unit 160A determines that the link marker of the link monster card is linked The main monster zone in the direction indicated by M31 may be set as a zone where the second user's extra monster card can be placed.

  [3-2-5] Further, when the second type card of the first user is placed in the second area, the third placement control unit 160A selects the second type card among the plurality of third areas. The third area specified based on the parameters of (4) may be set as an area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the second user.

  Here, the “third area specified based on the parameters of the second type card” means, for example, a second area in which the second type card is arranged among a plurality of third areas, and the second area This is a third area specified based on the seed card parameters. Specifically, for example, the third area is selected from among the third areas adjacent to the second area in which the second type card is arranged, based on the parameters of the second type card. For example, it is a third area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card among the plurality of third areas. Here, “the third area corresponding to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card” refers to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card when viewed from the second area in which the second type card is arranged. It is a third area located. Specifically, for example, among the third areas adjacent to the second area in which the second type card is arranged, the direction parameter of the second type card is the second area card in which the second type card is arranged. It is a third area located in the direction shown.

  “When the second type card of the first user is placed in the second area, the third area specified based on the parameters of the second type card among the plurality of third areas is selected as the second user Setting as the area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card, for example, the parameter of the second type card in the turn of the second user in which the second type card of the first user is arranged in the second area It is possible to arrange the second type card of the second user in the third area specified based on. Alternatively, it is specified based on the parameters of the second type card only for the second user's turn immediately after the first user's turn where the first user's second type card placement is performed. May be to allow placement of the second user's second type card in the third area. Also, when the first user's second type card placed in the second area is removed by attack or the like, the arrangement of the second user's second type card in the third area is restricted without being accepted. It is also good.

  In the example of the card game described above, the third arrangement control unit 160A is used when the first user's link monster card (an example of the second type card) is arranged in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the second area). Place the extra monster card of the second user in the main monster zone in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card among the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J (an example of the plurality of third areas) To the zone where it is possible.

  For example, the link marker M31 of the link monster card (decode / talker) shown in FIG. 6 indicates the lower left, lower right, and upper directions. When the link monster card is placed in the extra monster zone Z1A by the first user, it becomes possible to place the extra monster card of the second user in the main monster zone Z2G above the extra monster zone Z1A. Also, in this state, when the link monster card (honeybot) shown in FIG. 7 is placed in the main monster zone Z2G by the second user, the link marker M31 of this link monster card points to the left or right. Therefore, the extra monster card of the second user can be arranged in the main monster zones Z2F and Z2H located on the left and right of the main monster zone Z2G.

  The first placement control unit 140A may have the same function as the third placement control unit 160A described here. For example, when the second user's link monster card (an example of the second type card) is placed in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (an example of the second area), the first placement control unit 140A selects the main monster zone Z2A. ~ Z2E (an example of a plurality of first areas), the main monster zone in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card is set as a zone to which the first user's extra monster card can be placed You may

  [3-2-6] The second area setting unit 120A may set the first shared area and the second shared area as the second area. In addition, the second placement control unit 150A may receive the placement of the second type card of the first user or the second user in the first shared area or the second shared area. Then, when the second type card of the first user is disposed in the first shared area, the second placement control unit 150A restricts the placement of the second type card of the first user in the second shared area. You may do so.

  In addition, even when the first user's second type card is disposed in the first shared area, the first user's second type card is disposed in the first area, and When the second shared area corresponds to the area specified based on the parameter, the second placement control unit 150A sets the second shared area as the area for receiving the placement of the second type card of the first user. It may be set.

  Here, the “shared area” is an area shared by the first user and the second user, and it is also possible to arrange a second type card of the first user, and the second type of the second user is also available. It is also an area where cards can be placed. In the above-described example of the card game, each of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B corresponds to an example of the "common area". For example, the extra monster zone Z1A corresponds to an example of the "first shared area", and the extra monster zone Z1B corresponds to an example of the "second shared area".

  “If the first user's second type card is placed in the first area, and the second shared area corresponds to the area specified based on the parameters of the second type card” This is a case where the user's second type card is placed in the first area, and the second shared area corresponds to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card. “When the second shared area corresponds to the direction indicated by the direction parameter of the second type card” is, for example, the second type when viewed from the first area in which the second type card of the first user is disposed. The second common area is located in the direction indicated by the card's direction parameter. Specifically, for example, the second shared area is adjacent to the first area in which the second type card of the first user is disposed, and the direction parameter of the second type card indicates from the first area. This is the case where the second shared area is located in the direction.

  “Setting as the area for receiving the arrangement of the second type card of the first user” is to allow the arrangement of the second type card of the first user in the second shared area. In the first user's turn in which the first user's second type card is disposed in the first area, the first user's second type card may be disposed in the second shared area. , Allowing the first user's second-type card to be placed in the second shared area only in the first user's turn in which the first user's second-type card was placed in the first area It is also good. Alternatively, in the turn of the first user in which the first user's second type card is arranged in the first area, the first user's second type card is not received in the second shared area, and thereafter In the first user's turn, the first user's second type card may be arranged in the second shared area. Also, when the second user's second type card placed in the first area is removed by attack or the like, the placement of the first user's second type card in the second shared area is not accepted but restricted. It is also good.

  In the example of the card game described above, for example, the link monster card (an example of a second type card) of the first user, which is a type of extra monster card, is arranged in the extra monster zone Z1A (an example of the first shared area) In principle, the second placement control unit 150A prohibits placing the first user's extra monster card in the extra monster zone Z1B (an example of the second shared area).

  However, when an extra link such as the example shown in FIG. 9 is completed (ie, arranged on a route from extra monster zone Z1A to extra monster zone Z1B via at least one of main monster zones Z2A to Z2F) The second placement control unit 150A exceptionally, for all the linked monster cards of the first user (when the link markers M31 of adjacent linked monster cards point to each other) Allows placement of extra monster cards in extra monster zone Z1B.

  [3-2-7] The game processing execution unit 170A executes the game processing based on the cards arranged in the first area or the second area. Note that “to execute the game process” is the same as the first configuration, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the game processing execution unit 170A selects the monster card of the first user placed in any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E based on an instruction from the first user, to the main monster zone Z2F to Execute an attack process on the second user's monster card placed in Z2J or the like. Alternatively, based on an instruction from the first user, the game processing execution unit 170A is arranged from the first user extra monster card arranged in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B to the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, etc. Execute attack processing to the second user's monster card.

  Also, for example, the game processing execution unit 170A is a first user placed from the monster card placed in any of the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, etc. based on an instruction from the second user. Perform attack processing on monster cards. Alternatively, the game processing execution unit 170A is arranged in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, etc. from the extra user card of the second user arranged in either of the extra monster zones Z1A or Z1B based on an instruction from the second user. Execute attack processing on the monster card of the first user.

  [3-3] Next, the third configuration will be described. FIG. 26 is a functional block diagram showing functional blocks related to the third configuration. As shown in FIG. 26, the game system 1 includes a data storage unit 100, an area setting unit 110B, a first arrangement control unit 140B, a second arrangement control unit 150B, and a third arrangement control unit as functional blocks related to the third configuration. 160B, and includes a game processing execution unit 170B.

  For example, the data storage unit 100 is realized by at least one of the storage unit 12, the database DB, and the storage unit 32, and the other functional blocks are realized by at least one of the control unit 11 and the control unit 32. . A storage unit of another device accessible from game terminal 10 may be used instead of (or together with) storage unit 12. The data storage unit 100 is the same as the first configuration (FIG. 19), and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

  [3-3-1] The area setting unit 110B sets the first area and the second area in the game field. For example, the area setting unit 110B sets a plurality of second areas arranged in a predetermined direction in the game field.

  The first placement control unit 140B receives the placement of the user's first type card in the first area, and limits the placement of the user's second type card in the first area. On the other hand, the second placement control unit 150B receives the placement of the user's second type card in the second area, and limits the placement of the user's first type card in the second area.

  Here, the "game field", "card", "accept card placement in area", and "restrict card placement in area" are the same as in the first configuration, so I omit explanation.

  The “first area” is an area mainly for arranging the user's first type card, and is an area where the arrangement of the user's second type card is restricted. Each area (zone, mass, block, etc.) for arranging the user's first type card corresponds to the "first area". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E corresponds to an example of the “first area”.

  The “second area” is an area mainly for arranging the second-type card of the user, and is an area in which the arrangement of the first-type card of the user is restricted. Each area (zone, mass, block, etc.) for arranging the user's second type card corresponds to the "second area". In the above-described example of the card game, each of the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A to Z3E corresponds to an example of the “second area”.

  The "type 1 card" is a specific type of card. For example, the “first type card” is a type of card that can be placed in the first area and the placement in the second area is limited. In the above-described example of the card game, cards of types that can be arranged in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, that is, monster cards other than the extra monster card correspond to an example of the “first type card”.

  The “type 2 card” is a specific type of card, and is a type different from the type 1 card. For example, the “type 2 card” is a type of card that can be placed in the second area and the placement in the first area is limited. In the above-described example of the card game, cards of types that can be placed in the magic / wandering zones Z3A to Z3E, that is, magic cards or whistle cards correspond to an example of the “second type card”.

  Here, the “predetermined direction” is, for example, the horizontal direction or the vertical direction. “To set a plurality of second regions arranged in a predetermined direction” means to set a plurality of second regions arranged on a straight line extending in a predetermined direction.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the first placement control unit 140B sends the monster card of the first user other than the extra monster card to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the first area) (an example of the first type card) The arrangement of the first user's magic card or armor card (an example of the second type card) to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E is restricted. In addition, the second placement control unit 150B receives the placement of the first user's magic card or whistle card (an example of the second type card) in the magic / teaching zone Z3A to Z3E (an example of the second area). The arrangement of the first user's monster cards (an example of the first type card) other than the extra monster cards to the whale zones Z3A to Z3E (an example of the second area) is restricted.

  [3-3-2] The third placement control unit 160B receives the placement of the user's third type card in the first area or the second area. For example, the third placement control unit 160B receives the placement of the third-type card in two second regions at both ends of the plurality of second regions arranged in the predetermined direction, and the other second Limit the placement of Type 3 cards in the area.

  Here, the “type 3 card” is a specific type of card, and is a type of card different from each of the type 1 card and the type 2 card. For example, the card has the properties of both a first type card and a second type card, and can be used as a first type card or can also be used as a second type card. For example, the "third type card" is associated with the first performance information on the first performance and the second performance information on the second performance. The "performance" is, for example, the strength of the card (level, aggression, defensive strength, etc.) or the effect of the card. The “first performance” is the performance when the third type card is arranged in the first area. In other words, the "first performance" is the performance when the third type card is used as the first type card. That is, the "first performance" is the performance as a first type card. The “second performance” is the performance when the third type card is arranged in the second area. In other words, the “second performance” is the performance when the third type card is used as the second type card. That is, the "second performance" is the performance as a second type card.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the pendulum monster card in the hand C1 of the first user corresponds to an example of the “type 3 card”. As described above, if the pendulum monster is summoned by placing the pendulum monster card from the hand C1 to any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, then if the pendulum monster is destroyed, the pendulum monster card is an extra. It is sent to the deck zone Z7A and placed face up. In this case, the pendulum monster cards placed in the extra deck zone Z7A can be placed in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, but can not be placed in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the magic and Zen zones Z3A to Z3E. Therefore, it does not correspond to any of the "type 1 card", "type 2 card", and "type 3 card" here. Also, as described above, the pendulum monster card has both a performance as a monster card (attack power and defensive strength) and a performance as a magic card that activates a pendulum summoner, and the performance as a monster card is It corresponds to an example of the “first performance”, and the performance as a magic card that activates Pendulum summons corresponds to an example of the “second performance”.

  The “two second regions at both ends” are, for example, the second regions at the left end and the right end if a plurality of second regions are set so as to be aligned in the lateral direction. Further, for example, in the case where a plurality of second areas are set to be aligned in the vertical direction, the second areas are the upper end and the lower end. In the above-described example of the card game, magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E (pendulum zones) correspond to an example of “two second areas at both ends”.

  In the above-described example of the card game, the third placement control unit 160B receives the placement of the pendulum monster card of the first user in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the first area). In addition, the third placement control unit 160B receives the placement of the pendulum monster card of the first user on the magic and Zen zones Z3A and Z3E (an example of the second area).

  [3-3-3] The game processing execution unit 170B executes the game processing based on the cards arranged in the first area or the second area. For example, when the third type card is disposed in the first area, the game process execution unit 170B executes the game process based on the first performance information associated with the third type card. In addition, when the third type card is disposed in the second area, the game process execution unit 170B executes the game process based on the second performance information associated with the third type card.

  Here, “to execute game processing based on the first performance information associated with the third type card” means, for example, based on the first performance (aggressive power, defensive power, etc.) of the third type card. To execute an attack from the first user to the second user, to execute an attack from the second user to the first user, or to exert the first performance (effect, etc.) of the third type card And so on.

  “Performing game processing based on the second performance information associated with the third type card” means, for example, exerting the second performance (effect, etc.) of the third type card. Execute an attack on the first user from the second user, or execute an attack on the first user from the second user, based on the second performance (such as aggression or defensive strength) of the third type card It may be to do.

  When the third type card is arranged in the two second areas, the first placement control unit 140B generates a plurality of the third type cards based on the combination of the third type cards arranged in the two second areas. Accept placement of multiple first-type cards or third-type cards in one area at a time.

  Here, “accepting the placement of a plurality of the first type card or the third type card to the plurality of first areas at once based on the combination of the third type card” means that the combination of the third type card is In the case of the specific combination, the arrangement of the plurality of first type cards or the third type cards to the plurality of first areas is accepted. The number of first cards or third cards which can be placed at one time may be set to a value corresponding to the combination of the third cards. Here, "a plurality of first type cards or a third type card" may be "a plurality of first type cards", or may be a "a plurality of third type cards", or " It may be "one or more first type cards and one or more third type cards".

  In the example of the card game described above, the game processing when the first user's pendulum monster card (an example of the third type card) is arranged in any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E (an example of the first area) The executing unit 170B is arranged in the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, etc. from the pendulum monster card based on the attack power (an example of the first performance information) of the pendulum monster card according to an instruction from the first user. Execute attack processing on the second user's monster card.

  On the other hand, when the first user's pendulum monster card is arranged in both the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E (an example of the second area), the game process execution unit 170B responds to an instruction from the first user. Activate a Pendulum Summoner based on the Pendulum Scale (an example of the second performance information) of the Pendulum Monster Card. In this case, the first placement control unit 140B sends a monster card of the level between the pendulum scales indicated by the pendulum monster cards placed in both the magic and acupuncture zones Z3A and Z3E once per turn, as much as the first It is accepted that the user's hand C1 or the extra deck zone Z7A is arranged in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E.

  [4. Processing] Next, processing executed by the game system 1 will be described.

  [4-1] FIG. 27 is a flowchart showing an example of an outline of a process performed when starting a card game battle. In FIG. 27, it is assumed that the first user who uses the first game terminal 10-1 and the second user who uses the second game terminal 10-2 are determined as a combination of users who play a match. .

  As shown in FIG. 27, first, the control unit 31 of the server 30 executes an initial setting process (S300). For example, the control unit 31 sets each zone of the Duel field F. Specifically, the control unit 31 sets zones other than the main deck zones Z5A and Z5B and the extra deck zones Z7A and Z7B in a state in which no card is arranged. Further, the control unit 31 refers to the deck data D104 of the first user, and shuffles the deck of the first user to generate a deck of the first user placed in the main deck zone Z5A of the first user. Further, the control unit 31 refers to the extra deck data D105 of the first user, and generates an extra deck of the first user disposed in the extra deck zone Z7A of the first user. Similarly, the control unit 31 refers to the deck data D104 of the second user and shuffles the deck of the second user to generate a deck for the second user placed in the main deck zone Z5B of the second user. Furthermore, the control unit 31 refers to the extra deck data D105 of the second user, and generates an extra deck of the second user to be disposed in the extra deck zone Z7B of the second user. Further, the control unit 31 sets the life points of the first user and the second user to initial values, and determines which turn the first user or the second user starts from. In step S300, the game situation data is initialized by executing the above-described processing.

  After execution of step S300, the control unit 31 transmits a card game match start instruction to the first game terminal 10-1 and the second game terminal 10-2 via the communication unit 33 (S302). The control unit 31 instructs each of the first game terminal 10-1 and the second game terminal 10-2 data necessary to display various images such as the game image G1 and the like on the display unit 15 together with the battle start instruction. Send. For example, game status data and data (serial number, card number, card name, image, etc.) of each card included in the decks and extra decks of the first and second users are transmitted.

  The first game terminal 10-1 and the second game terminal 10-2 receive the battle start instruction via the communication unit 13 (S100, S110), and the respective control units 11 display the game image G1 on the display unit 15. (S102, S112). Then, a card game battle is started.

  [4-2] FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing an example of an outline of a process performed when a card placement instruction operation or an attack instruction operation is performed by a user during a match. In FIG. 28, it is assumed that the card placement instruction operation or the attack instruction operation is performed by the first user. The same process is performed when the second user performs a card placement instruction operation or an attack instruction operation.

  As shown in FIG. 28, when the card arrangement instruction operation or the attack instruction operation is performed by the first user during the battle, first, the control unit 11 of the first game terminal 10-1 operates the operation data via the communication unit 13. Are transmitted to the server 30 (S120), and the server 30 receives operation data via the communication unit 33 (S310). Then, the control unit 31 of the server 30 updates the game situation data based on the operation data (S312).

  When the operation data indicating the card placement instructing operation is received, first, the control unit 31 determines whether or not the placement target card designated by the first user can be placed in the placement destination zone designated by the first user. Do.

  For example, when the placement target card is a normal monster card in hand C1, the control unit 31 determines whether the placement destination zone is any of main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, and whether the placement destination zone is empty. Whether or not the summoning condition of the placement target card is satisfied is determined. When the summoning condition is not particularly set to the arrangement target card, the control unit 31 considers that the summoning condition of the arrangement target card is satisfied. The placement destination zone is any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, and the placement destination zone is empty (that is, no other card is placed in the placement destination zone), and the placement target card If the summoning condition is satisfied, the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can be placed in the placement destination zone.

  In addition, for example, when the placement target card is a magic card or a bribe card in hand C1, the control unit 31 determines whether the placement destination zone is any of magic and bribe zones Z3A to Z3E, the placement destination Determine if the zone is free. If the placement destination zone is any one of magic and eyebrow zones Z3A to Z3E and the placement destination zone is empty, the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can be placed in the placement destination zone.

  Further, for example, when the placement target card is a pendulum monster card, the control unit 31 determines whether the placement destination zone is any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the magic and Zen zones Z3A and Z3E, the placement destination It is determined whether the zone is free or not, and whether the summoning condition of the placement target card is satisfied. If the placement destination zone is any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E, and the placement destination zone is empty, and the summoning condition of the placement target card is satisfied. The control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can be placed in the placement destination zone.

  Further, for example, when the arrangement target card is an extra monster card on the extra deck zone Z7A of the first user, the control unit 31 executes a process as shown in FIG.

  That is, first, the control unit 31 determines whether the arrangement destination zone is vacant (S320). If the placement destination zone is not available (if another card is already placed in the placement destination zone), the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can not be placed in the placement destination zone (S334). However, if the extra monster card is an extra monster card, even if the placement destination zone is not empty, the control unit 31 exceptionally does not determine that the placement target card can not be placed in the placement destination zone. , And execute step S322 described later.

  On the other hand, when the placement destination zone is vacant, the control unit 31 determines whether the summoning condition of the placement target card is satisfied (S322). When the summoning condition is not particularly set to the arrangement target card, the control unit 31 considers that the summoning condition of the arrangement target card is satisfied. If the summoning condition of the placement target card is not satisfied, the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can not be placed in the placement destination zone (S334).

  On the other hand, if the summoning condition of the placement target card is satisfied, the control unit 31 determines whether the placement destination zone is one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B (S324). If the placement destination zone is one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the control unit 31 determines whether the card of the first user is already placed in the other of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. (S326). If the card of the first user is not arranged in the other of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the control unit 31 determines that the arrangement target card can be arranged in the arrangement destination zone (S332).

  On the other hand, when the card of the first user is arranged in the other of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the control unit 31 determines that the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are extra links as in the example shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not it is connected (S328). When the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are connected by the extra link, the control unit 31 determines that the arrangement target card can be arranged in the arrangement destination zone (S332). On the other hand, when the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B are not connected by the extra link, the control unit 31 determines that the arrangement target card can not be arranged in the arrangement destination zone (S334).

  If it is determined in step S324 that the placement destination zone is not one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the control unit 31 determines that the placement destination zone has already been placed among the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E. It is determined whether or not it is the main monster zone indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card (S330). If the placement destination zone is the main monster zone as described above, the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can be placed in the placement destination zone (S332). On the other hand, if the placement destination zone is not the main monster zone as described above, the control unit 31 determines that the placement target card can not be placed in the placement destination zone (S334).

  If the placement target card can be placed in the placement destination zone, the control unit 31 updates the game situation data so that the placement target card is placed in the placement destination zone. If it is necessary to remove the card placed in the main monster zone Z2A to Z2E etc. and transfer it to the graveyard Z4A etc. (ie, it is necessary to release it) in exchange for placing the placement target card in the placement destination zone (In the case), the control unit 31 updates the game situation data, and the card is removed and transferred to the graveyard Z4A or the like. On the other hand, when it is not possible to place the placement target card in the placement destination zone, the control unit 31 does not update the game situation data (without placing the placement target card in the placement destination zone). It notifies the user terminal 10-1.

  When the pendulum monster card is arranged in both the magic and moth zones Z3A and Z3E, when operation data indicating an operation instructing a pendulum summoning is received, the control unit 31 is operated by the user according to the operation. Place the designated monster cards (monster cards of the level between the pendulum scales indicated by those pendulum monster cards) from the hand C1 of the first user and the extra deck zone Z7A to the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E.

  For example, the attack instruction operation (ie, the second user arranged in the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J, etc. by the monster card of the first user arranged in any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E or the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B When operation data indicating an operation to instruct an attack on a monster card is received, the control unit 31 executes a process as described below to update the game situation data.

  If the monster card of the attack target second user is in the attack display state, the control unit 31 compares the attack power of the first user monster card with the attack power of the second user monster card. When the offensive power of the first user's monster card is higher than the offensive power of the second user's monster card, the control unit 31 reduces the life point of the second user by an amount according to the difference in offensive power. On the other hand, when the attack power of the monster card of the first user is lower than the attack power of the monster card of the second user, the control unit 31 decreases the life point of the first user by an amount according to the difference in the attack power. When the attack power of the first user's monster card is equal to the attack power of the second user's monster card, the control unit 31 moves the first user's monster card to the graveyard Z4A, and the second user's monster card Move to the graveyard Z4B.

  On the other hand, if the monster card of the attack target second user is in the defensive display state, the control unit 31 compares the attack power of the first user's monster card with the defensive power of the second user's monster card. If the attack power of the first user's monster card is higher than the defensive power of the second user's monster card, the control unit 31 moves the second user's monster card to the graveyard Z4B. On the other hand, when the attack power of the first user's monster card is lower than the defense power of the second user's monster card, the control unit 31 increases the life point of the first user by an amount according to the difference between the defense power and the attack power. Reduce When the attack power of the first user's monster card is equal to the defensive power of the second user's monster card, the control unit 31 updates the life points of the first user and the second user, or the first user or The current state is maintained without moving the second user's monster card to the graveyards Z4A and Z4B.

  After execution of step S312, the control unit 31 transmits update result data indicating the update result of the game situation data to the first game terminal 10-1 and the second game terminal 10-2 via the communication unit 33 (S314 , And the first game terminal 10-1 and the second game terminal 10-2 receive the data via the communication unit 13 (S122, S130). Then, based on the data, each control unit 11 updates the game image G1 displayed on the display unit 15 (S124, S132).

  [5. Summary] In the game system 1 (first configuration), the arrangement of the extra monster card of the first user or the second user in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2J is restricted, and shared by the first user and the second user By arranging in the extra monster zone Z1A, Z1B, it becomes difficult for the first user and the second user to arrange the extra monster card having a higher offensive power than a regular monster card. As a result, the strategicity of the card game can be improved.

  In addition, in the game system 1 (first configuration), when the extra monster card of the first user is placed in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the placement of the extra monster card of the first user in the other is restricted. If the second user's extra monster card is placed in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the second user's extra monster card is restricted from being placed on the other user's card. It is possible to make it difficult for one extra monster card with the user to be placed in both extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B.

  In game system 1 (first configuration), the number of extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B smaller than the number of main monster zones Z2A to Z2E of the first user and the number of main monster zones Z2F to Z2J of the second user are set. By doing this, it becomes difficult to place a large number of extra monster cards. As a result, the strategicity of the card game can be improved.

  In game system 1 (first configuration), extra monster zone Z1A is set between main monster zones Z2A to Z2E of the first user and main monster zones Z2F to Z2J of the second user, which are set to face each other. , And Z1B, the first user or the second user can intuitively recognize that the extra monster zone Z1A or Z1B is an area shared by the first user or the second user. .

  Furthermore, in the game system 1 (second configuration), in the normal case, the first user restricts the arrangement of the extra monster card in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E of the first user, and the first user's link When a monster card (a kind of extra monster card) is placed in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the main monster zone Z2A to Z2E in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card Since the first user's extra monster card can be placed in the monster zone, the first user places the link monster card in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B while considering the link marker M31 of the link monster card. Makes it possible to increase the number of deployable extra monster cards. As a result, the strategicity of the card game can be improved.

  In the game system 1 (second configuration), when the link monster card of the first user is arranged in any of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E of the first user, one of the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E, Since the first monster extra monster card can be placed also in the main monster zone in the direction indicated by the link marker M31 of the link monster card, the first user links while considering the link marker M31 of the link monster card By placing monster cards in the main monster zone, it is possible to further increase the number of extra monster cards that can be placed. As a result, the strategicity of the card game can be improved.

  Also, in the game system 1 (second configuration), in the normal case, the second user restricts placement of the extra monster card in the main monster zone Z2F to Z2J of the second user, and the first user's link monster is When the card is placed in any of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, the main monster zone of the second user in the direction pointed by the link marker M31 of the link monster card is selected from the main monster zones Z2F to Z2J. When the first user arranges the link monster card in any of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B by enabling the arrangement of the extra monster card of the two users, the second user may be selected depending on the link marker M31 of the link monster card. Also Consisting of click Stora monster card to be placed in the main monster zone Z2F~Z2J. For this reason, the first user determines whether the link monster card is arranged in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B or the link monster arranged in the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B while sufficiently considering the link marker M31 of the link monster card. You need to choose As a result, the strategy in the card game can be further improved.

  Further, in the game system 1 (second configuration), when the link monster card of the first user is placed in one of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, in principle, the link monster card of the first user is placed in the other. The first user can link the link monster card by limiting the first link link monster card to the other user only if the extra link as shown in FIG. 9 is completed. By considering the marker M31 sufficiently and selecting the link monster card to be placed, the link monster card can be exceptionally placed in both of the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B. As a result, the strategy in the card game can be further improved.

  In the game system 1 (second configuration), the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E of the first user are positioned in at least three directions as viewed from the extra monster zones Z1A and Z1B, respectively. By setting the [], it is possible to increase the pattern of the main monster zone that enables the arrangement of the extra monster card by the link monster card arranged in the extra monster zone Z1A, Z1B.

  Furthermore, in the game system 1 (third configuration), the placement of the first user's pendulum monster card to the main monster zone Z2A to Z2J or the magic and acupuncture zones Z3A and Z3E is accepted, whereby the pendulum monster card is There is no need to provide a dedicated area for arrangement separately from the main monster zones Z2A to Z2J or the magic and eyebrow zones Z3A and Z3E. As a result, the space required to execute the card game can be reduced.

  Further, in game system 1 (third configuration), when the first user's pendulum monster card is placed in main monster zones Z2A to Z2J, it plays a role as a monster card, and the first user's pendulum monster card is magical・ When placed in the main monster zone Z2A to Z2J by having it act as a magic card that activates Pendulum Summoning when placed in the Samurai Zone Z3A or Z3E, and the Magic ・ Zeta Zone Z3A, The performance of the Pendulum Monster Card can be changed depending on whether it is placed in the Z3E. In other words, it is possible to select whether the Pendulum Monster Card performs as a monster card or as a magic card.

  Also, in game system 1 (third configuration), when the first user's pendulum monster cards are placed in both magic and armor zones Z3A and Z3E, the level between the pendulum scales indicated by those pendulum monster cards. Monster cards can be placed in the main monster zones Z2A to Z2E from the first user's hand C1 and the extra deck zone Z7A as many times as desired once per turn. As a result, as a method of summoning monsters, it is possible to provide the user with a special summoning method such as the above-mentioned Pendulum Summoning in addition to the normal summoning method. The user can select these methods, and can improve the strategicity of the card game.

  Further, in the game system 1 (third configuration), it is possible to limit the number of magic and eyebrow zones in which the first user's pendulum monster card can be arranged to two. If the above-mentioned pendulum summoning can be carried out indiscriminately, there is a possibility that the interest of the card game may be lost, but according to the game system 1 (third configuration), the occurrence of such inconvenience can be suppressed. Further, according to the game system 1 (third configuration), since the two magic and Zen zones Z3A and Z3E at both ends of the magic and Zen zones Z3A to Z3E become areas where the pendulum monster card can be placed, It becomes easy to grasp which one of the armor zones Z3A to Z3E is an area where a pendulum monster card can be placed.
