Description

  The present invention relates to an information processing system, and more particularly to an information processing system for providing in-game content to a player by lottery processing.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, game content such as a character card is given to a player in a game, and a game played using this is known. In addition, among such games, as a method of obtaining the game content, there is known one that provides a method of obtaining by performing a lottery called a so-called “Gacha” or the like. Further, it is also known that a lottery (also referred to as “10 consecutive gachas” or the like) in which 10 game contents can be obtained at one time is provided for this lottery (for example, Patent Document 1).

JP, 2014-30610, A

  In the lottery in the game as described above, in particular, in the “10 consecutive gachas” in which a plurality of contents can be obtained at one time, all the contents to be obtained are selected by the lottery. That is, all the content was selected at random. Therefore, as a result of the “10 consecutive gachas”, it may have been possible to obtain only the content that the user does not want. In such a case, the user's interest in the game play as a result of the lottery will be reduced, and there is room for improvement from the viewpoint of enjoying continuous game play.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an information processing system and the like capable of preventing a decrease in the user's interest in game play due to a result of a lottery.

  In order to achieve the above object, for example, the following configuration examples may be mentioned.

  An example of the configuration example is an information processing system, which includes first determination processing means (S25, S26) and content providing means (S25, S26). The first determination processing means executes a first determination process of specifying at least two or more contents as fixed contents from among the plurality of contents and drawing at least one of the plural contents as lottery contents. . The content providing means provides the user with the determined content and the lottery content.

  According to the above configuration example, when a plurality of contents are drawn and provided to the user, the contents of some of the contents are specified in advance. Therefore, it is possible to make it easy to obtain the content desired by the user while enjoying the expectation of the lottery that the user can not know what can be obtained. This makes it possible to prevent a drop in interest in game play due to the result of the lottery.

  As another configuration example, the information processing system presents information on a plurality of first determination processes to the user, and selects one of the first determination processes from among the information based on the user's operation (determination process selection means ( The information processing apparatus may further include S3 to S7 and S21), and the first determination processing means may specify determined contents of different contents according to the first determination process selected by the determination process selection means (217, 218). Furthermore, the first determination processing means may specify different numbers of determined contents according to the first determination processing selected by the determination processing selection means (217, 218). In addition, the information processing system may display an image indicating the content of the determined content identified in each of the plurality of first determination processes before one of the plurality of first determination processes is selected by the determination process selection unit. The content display means (S3) to be displayed on the screen may be further provided.

  According to the above configuration example, it is possible to present and select a plurality of determination processes having different contents of the determined content to the user. As a result, even when the number of types of content increases, it becomes possible to easily obtain content that meets the needs of the user. In particular, by presenting the content of the finalized content and the number thereof in advance to the user, for example, it is easy to selectively obtain the content desired by the user even when 100 types of content can be obtained. Can.

  As another configuration example, the information processing system further includes a second determination processing means (S23) that executes a second determination process of drawing at least one content from a plurality of contents without specifying the content. May be Then, the determination process selection means may present the user with the information regarding the plurality of first determination processes and the information regarding the second determination process to the user, and may cause the user to select any one.

  According to the above configuration example, it is possible to provide a difference between the use condition of the first determination means and the use condition of the second determination means. For example, the first determination means can be configured to be used for consumption of pay items (charging items), and the second determination process can be configured to be available free of charge. In this way, it is possible to provide a method of obtaining content in accordance with the user's play style.

  As another configuration example, the information processing system may further include game processing execution means for executing predetermined game processing based on the user's operation. Then, the content giving means may give one content from the plurality of contents to the user based on the result of the game processing by the game processing means. In addition, the information processing system prohibits the provision of content which prohibits the provision of one content by the content giving means until a predetermined time elapses thereafter, when one content is given as a result of the game processing by the game processing means A means may be further provided.

  According to the above configuration example, the content that can be obtained by the first determination process can also be obtained by the game process. Therefore, it is possible to provide game play adapted to the play style of each user. In particular, by using the first determination process, it is also possible to shorten the time required to obtain content as compared to the case of obtaining content by game processing. Therefore, for example, depending on how much time for game play can be secured, it is possible to provide an option of acquiring content by the game processing and an option of acquiring content using the first determination processing. Become.

  As another configuration example, each of the plurality of pieces of content may be configured to be set in advance as any one finalized item of the plurality of first determination processes.

  According to the above configuration example, all types of content can be obtained as fixed items in any of the first determination processes, so that the content desired by the user can be obtained more reliably, and the user's game play It is possible to prevent a decrease in motivation etc.

  As another configuration example, the content providing unit may simultaneously provide the user with the determined content and the lottery content.

  According to the above configuration example, it is possible to enhance the sense of expectation by the lottery and to prevent the motivation for the game play from being lowered.

  According to the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the user's interest in game play due to the result of the lottery.

[Overview of Information Processing of this Embodiment]
Next, an outline of the information processing according to the present embodiment will be described. Although the information processing described in the present embodiment mainly relates to the process of acquiring items in the game, the outline of the game executed in the present embodiment will be described first in order to facilitate its understanding. .

  The game according to the present embodiment is a game which virtually lives as a player character in a virtual game world in which various virtual characters (resident characters) are living. For example, you can collect various items to build your own house or maintain a garden. In addition, various items can be obtained by hunting, fishing or the like in the game, or by conversation with the resident character.

  Here, the player character may be requested to perform various "quests" from the resident character. By clearing this "quest", various items are given to the player as a clear reward. And one of the "quests" is a quest whose purpose is to bring a designated item. Specifically, in this game, there is an item imitating seafood as an item, and there is a quest intended to bring a specific fish or shellfish. For example, "Please bring one Thai", "Please bring two skipjacks" or "Please bring two ties and two skipjacks". In response to such a quest, when the player obtains an item designated in the game and delivers it to the requested resident character, the quest is cleared and a predetermined item is given to the player as a clear reward.

  Next, a method of acquiring items in the game (acquisition process), specifically, a method of acquiring items imitating the above-described fish and shellfish (hereinafter, fish items) will be described. In this game, there are the following two types of methods of obtaining the above-mentioned seafood item (the obtaining route), roughly. First, the player can obtain a seafood item by performing "fishing" (more specifically, a "fishing" mini game) in the game. The other is that "fishing" items can be used to obtain seafood items.

[About obtaining items by fishing]
The acquisition method by the above-mentioned "fishing" is explained more concretely. In the game, a predetermined position or area in the game world is set as a "fishing spot". Moreover, the said "fishing spot" is set in multiple places. Then, the player can cause the player character to perform "fishing" by moving the player character to the "fishing spot" and using the item "fishing rod" (the "fishing" mini game can be started) ). By performing such "fishing", it is possible to fish only one randomly selected (lotted) seafood item. Here, in the present embodiment, there are ten types of seafood items in total. Therefore, in the present embodiment, first, a process of drawing one type out of the 10 types of seafood items is executed as the process related to the above-mentioned "fishing". Then, a mini-game process of fishing (for example, it is determined based on the operation of the player whether it is possible to catch the lottery fish or to be escaped) is executed, and as a result, it is possible to fish If it is determined, the above-mentioned lottery seafood item is given as the possession of the player character. In another embodiment, it may be determined first whether or not the fishing can be performed, and when the fishing can be performed, a process of drawing the above-mentioned seafood item may be performed.

  In the present embodiment, once “fishing” is performed at the “fishing spot” and if any type of seafood item is fished, the same “fishing spot” (even if fishing is performed until a predetermined time elapses) ) Seafood items are set to be unfished. In other words, it is set so that it is not possible to catch fish items continuously. In addition, as for the restriction of continuous fishing, for example, once “fishing” is performed at the fishing spot A, “fishing” at the fishing spot A can not be made unless 5 minutes elapse. Good.

  In another embodiment, when any type of seafood item is fished, it may be configured that “fishing” itself at the same “fishing spot” can not be performed until a predetermined time has elapsed. In addition to the above-mentioned lapse of predetermined time, the condition that "fishing" can be performed again is that the player has performed a specific operation by the player, the character has performed a specific action, and so on. You may be able to do fishing.

[About obtaining items by transom]
Next, the acquisition method by use of the "trading net" item will be specifically described. In the present embodiment, for example, “net jumping spots” different from the “fishing spots” are set, and in the “net jumping spots”, a plurality of fish items are made at once by making the player character use the “net jumping” item. (Even in other embodiments, the 'fishing' spot and the 'punching spot' may be set to the same position). Therefore, it is possible to shorten the time required to arrange the items required in the quest, in the case of using the throwing net as compared to the case of obtaining one by one in the above-mentioned "fishing". In particular, after “fishing” is performed once as described above, if “fishing” can not be performed again unless the predetermined time elapses, the effect of shortening the time is further increased. In the present embodiment, although “time” is provided for “fishing”, “fishing” can be performed any number of times as long as a predetermined time has elapsed. On the other hand, "punishing net" can be implemented by consuming the item "normal speculation net". In other words, the number of times of use is limited in the form of the number of possession of these items. Also, unlike in the case of the above-mentioned "fishing", as long as the net item is owned, it is possible to use the net item continuously without waiting for a predetermined time after the net has been set. . In addition to the consumption of the above-mentioned item "normal pitch net", the "pitch net" can also be executed by consuming "ticket" described later.

Here, it supplements about the type of the net. In the present embodiment, there are the following three types of "trading nets" which are different in the execution method.
(1) Normal throwing net (possible by using net throwing item)
(2) Small fish throwing nets (can be done by consuming tickets)
(3) Medium size fish nets (can be done by consuming tickets)

  When the player moves the player character to the above-mentioned "fishing spot" and performs an instruction operation using a net cast, a net cast selection screen as shown in FIG. 4 is displayed. In FIG. 4, option images 151 </ b> A to 151 </ b> C showing normal pitch nets, small fish pitch nets, and medium size fish pitch nets are shown in order from the top. Hereinafter, the outline of various “punching nets” and the corresponding option image 151 will be described.

  First of all, the normal net will be described. A regular cast net is a "cast net" item that can be used to obtain four seafood items. These four seafood items are determined by drawing one by one from the above 10 types of seafood items. That is, four lotterys are performed.

  Here, the winning probability of the seafood item in the lottery will be supplemented. In the present embodiment, the winning probability is set for each of the above 10 types of seafood items. For example, of ten types, five types each have a first probability, three types each have a second probability lower than the first probability, two types each having a third probability lower than the second probability, etc. The lottery is performed using the winning probability. In another embodiment, a setting may be used such that the winning probability is substantially flat for all of the seafood items.

  Next, the option image 151A will be described. The option image 151A of FIG. 4 is an image shown as an option corresponding to normal pitching. The player can select and use the normal pitch by, for example, performing a touch operation on the option image 151A. In the option image 151A, a net image 152 showing an image of nets is shown, and below the net image 152, the number of usable times (in other words, the number of possession of a normal net) is also shown. In addition, four item images 153 indicating information on available items are displayed on the right side of the cast image 152. This indicates that four fish items can be obtained by using the normal net. That is, the item images 153 of the number corresponding to the number of available seafood items are displayed. Further, in the option image 151A in FIG. 4, each of the four item images 153 is displayed with a “?” Mark. This indicates that available seafood items are selected by lottery. In other words, it indicates that at this point it is unclear which seafood item is available.

  Next, the small fish throwing net will be described. This small fish net is a "net net" item that can be used to obtain 10 fish items. That is, the number available at one time is larger than that of the above-mentioned regular pitch net. However, in this embodiment, not all 10 pieces are determined by lottery, but among these 10 fish items, only 7 are determined by lottery (7 times of lottery are performed) . The contents of the remaining three seafood items are specified (confirmed) from the beginning (that is, the lottery is not performed). In other words, three out of a total of ten seafood items are determined frames, and seven are lottery frames. In the following description, the seafood item whose content is specified in advance is referred to as the “fixed frame item”, and the item determined by the lottery is referred to as the “lottery item” Treat as a frame item).

  The option image 151B shown in FIG. 4 is an image shown as an option corresponding to the small fish net. In this image, ten item images 153 are displayed on the right side of the cast image 152. Among the image groups, for three item images 153, images showing concrete fish and shellfish that can be obtained are respectively shown. In the case of the option image 151B, three different types of fish and shellfish are shown, and this is an image showing the specific content of the confirmation frame item. That is, it is shown that the three types of fish and shellfish displayed in this image can be obtained in a definite manner. The remaining seven item images 153 are indicated by a “?” Mark. That is, it is shown that these seven animals are determined by lottery similarly to the case of regular pitching. That is, it is indicated that the item is the lottery frame. Moreover, since the said 7 animals are determined by lottery, the same seafood item as one of the seafood items of the said fixed frame may be determined (that is, the seafood item which overlaps with the thing of the fixed frame is a lottery frame) Can be determined in

  In addition, you may make it use the win probability different from the said regular pitch net regarding the win probability of the lottery frame item for seven said animals. For example, in the present embodiment, the above 10 types of seafood items are classified into “small fish group”, “medium-sized fish group”, and “large fish group”. And when using the said small fish throw net, the winning probability of the seafood item which belongs to a "small fish group" may be made higher than another group.

  By the way, in the option image 151 B, an image showing a ticket and the required number thereof is displayed below the pitched image 152. In the present embodiment, the normal net is managed as a possessed item of the player character, and is used directly in a form of consumption. On the other hand, with regard to small fish throw nets and medium size fish throw nets, it is possible to use one small fish throw net or medium size fish throw net by consuming a predetermined number of “ticket” items (ticket The item itself is treated as the possessed item of the player character). In the case of FIG. 4, by consuming three ticket items, it is possible to use the small fish throw net or the medium fish throw net only once.

  Here, supplements will be made on how to obtain a regular net and ticket items. The regular pitch net can be obtained in the game, for example, by a login bonus to the game, a reward for upgrading the level, distribution from the management, and the like. On the other hand, with regard to ticket items, a method of obtaining different from the usual method is provided, for example, it can be obtained as a so-called charging item.

  Next, medium size fish nets will be described. A medium size fish net can also be used by consuming a predetermined number of ticket items, and is a “dot net” item that can obtain 10 fish items in a single use. However, unlike the small fish throw net, four of the total of 10 fish items are the confirmation frame item, and six are the lottery frame items. That is, the breakdown is different from that for small fish throwers. Also in the option image 151C, for the item images 153 for four animals, images showing specific seafood that can be obtained are respectively shown, and for the item images 153 for the remaining six animals, they are indicated by a “?” Mark. . That is, it is determined by lottery that six fish items are determined by lottery, and it is shown that four fish items displayed can be obtained by confirmation.

  In addition, regarding the winning probability (appearance rate) for six characters of the lottery frame in the medium size fish throwing net, a winning probability different from that of the normal pitch net and the small fish throwing net may be used. For example, the winning probability of seafood items belonging to the "medium-sized fish group" may be higher than that of other groups.

  Further, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that the content of the fixed frame item of the small fish throw net does not overlap the content of the fixed frame item of the medium size fish throw net. That is, it is assumed that seafood items that can be obtained as fixed frames differ depending on the type of cast net. In this embodiment, seven different types of seafood items can be obtained one by one using only the fixed frame item for small fish nets and the fixed frame item for medium-sized fish nets. However, in another embodiment, the fixed frame may include seafood items that partially overlap.

  In the present embodiment, the number of items included in the fixed frame (the ratio of the fixed frame and the lottery frame) is not fixed in all ten, but the fixed frame and the lottery frame are mixed. That is, when a plurality of items are given to the player, at least two or more of them are decided as a decision frame, although basically determined by the lottery (in order to provide the player with fun like the sense of expectation peculiar to the lottery). . The number of items included in the confirmation frame is not limited to the above. In the present embodiment, the ratio is such that the lottery frame is larger than the fixed frame, but depending on the contents of the game, the ratio may be such that the number of fixed frames is larger than the lottery frame (e.g. One, three lottery slots, etc.).

  As described above, in the game processing according to the present embodiment, when collecting a plurality of seafood items requested by a quest or the like collectively, the normal throwing net for determining all of the available numbers by lottery, and some of them are obtained. The contents are fixed from the beginning and presented to the player, and then the small size fish nets and the medium size fish nets which selectively determine the remaining amount are made available selectively. In this way, when the player collects seafood items to be collected requested in the quest, it provides a room to use these pitching nets separately, for example, a fish of interest rather than the case of trying to align by fishing or normal pitching net alone. It makes it easier to collect items. As a result, it is possible to prevent the player's motivation for the game from being lowered and to play the game for a long time.

[Details of information processing of this embodiment]
Next, the information processing according to the present embodiment will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS.

[About usage data]
FIG. 5 shows an example of programs and data stored in the memory 123 of the server 101. The memory 123 stores a server side program 211, a player database 212, fixed frame definition data 216, net sales result data 219 and the like.

  The server side program 211 is a program for causing the server 101 to execute various functions that the server side takes charge of in the game processing according to the present embodiment.

  The player database 212 is a database storing information on each player of the game according to the present embodiment, and is configured of a plurality of player data 213. Each player data 213 includes account data 214, inventory data 215, and the like. The account data 214 is information on each player's account, and is also information for identifying each player. It is also used for login processing to the server 101 (the game of this embodiment) and the like. The inventory data 215 is data indicating items in the game (held by each player) given to each player, money held in the game, and the like. For example, identification information for identifying possessed items such as the above-mentioned regular pitch nets and fish items, the number of possessed items, etc. are included. Further, information indicating the number of possessed ticket items and the like is also included in this data. In addition, the player data 213 appropriately stores information indicating the play status (the order acceptance status of a quest, the progress status of a scenario, and the like) of each player.

  The fixed frame definition data 216 is data defined with respect to the contents of each of the fixed frame items of the small fish throw net and the medium size fish throw net described above. The small net data 217 is data indicating a confirmation frame item when the small fish throw net is used. The medium-sized net data 218 is data indicating a confirmation frame item when using a medium-sized fish net.

  The net placement result data 219 is data for indicating a plurality of seafood items (obtained as a result of net placement) which can be obtained by performing net placement as described above. Note that, in the present embodiment, the process of determining an item to be obtained by a net assignment is performed on the server 101 side.

  FIG. 6 illustrates an example of programs and data stored in the memory 113 of the smart device 102. The memory 113 stores a client-side program 221, operation data 222, object data 223, and the like.

  The client-side program 221 is a program for causing the smart device 102 to execute various functions that the smart device is in charge of in the game processing according to the present embodiment.

  The operation data 222 is data indicating contents of various operations performed on the operation unit 115. In the present embodiment, data indicating the presence or absence of input to the touch panel as the operation unit 115, data indicating touch coordinates and the like, and data indicating pressing states of various buttons (not shown) and the like are included.

  The object data 223 is data defining various objects that constitute the game world. For example, data indicating a 3D model of the player character is included. Moreover, the data etc. of the seafood image which shows the said seafood item are also contained.

  In addition, various data necessary for game processing are also stored in the memory 123 as appropriate.

[About the flowchart]
Next, the flow of processing executed by cooperation of the server 101 and the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 will be described with reference to the flowchart in FIG. 7. Here, the processing (pitching processing) when the player uses the above-mentioned pitching net will be mainly described, and the description of the other game processing will be omitted.

  First, when the player operates the smart device 102 to move the player character to a predetermined pitching spot, although not shown, a screen is displayed asking whether or not to perform "pitching". On the other hand, when the player performs an operation to select "net throw", the net release process according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 7 is started. In FIG. 7, the processing flow on the smart device side is shown on the left side, and the processing flow on the server side is shown on the right side.

  In FIG. 7, first, in step S 1, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 transmits an acquisition request for the small network data 217 and the medium network data 218 to the server 101. In response to this, in step S2, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 reads out the small network data 217 and the medium network data 218 from the fixed frame definition data 216, and transmits the data to the smart device of the request source. As a result, the smart device 102 can acquire, from the server 101, information on each fixed frame item of the small fish throw net and the medium size fish throw net.

  Next, in step S 3, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 generates a net selection screen as shown in FIG. 4 and displays it on the display unit 116. Specifically, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 acquires, from the object data 223, the image data corresponding to the determined frame item (three types here) defined in the acquired data for small network 217. Then, the option image 151B shown in FIG. 4 is generated using the image data. That is, an image of three types of fish is shown as a confirmation frame, and an option image 151B including “?” Marks indicating the other seven lottery frames is generated. Similarly, image data corresponding to the determined frame item (four types here) defined in the medium size network data 218 is acquired, and the option image 151C shown in FIG. 4 is generated using this. That is, four types of seafood images as the determination frame and six “?” Marks of the lottery frame are shown to generate the option image 151C. Further, the option image 151A for normal pitching as described above is also generated. Here, only the images of the four lottery slots are included. Then, the processor unit 111 generates a net placement selection screen (screen of FIG. 4) including the above and displays it on the screen. After this screen is displayed, the player can perform an input operation to select any one of the nets.

  The acquisition timings of the small network data 217 and the medium network data 218 from the server 101 are not limited to the above timings, for example, acquired from the server at the timing at which login processing succeeded before the start of the game. It may be stored in the main memory 113.

  Next, in step S4, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 acquires the operation data 222. In the following step S5, the processor unit 111 determines, based on the content of the operation data 222, whether any one of the nets has been selected. Then, if any one of the nets has been selected, data indicating the selected contents and data to request acquisition item determination processing are transmitted to the server 101 in step S6.

  Next, in step S7, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 receives the data indicating the selected content and the data to request acquisition item determination processing. Next, in step S8, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes acquired item determination processing based on the data indicating the selection content. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing details of the acquired item determination process. First, in step S21, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes a process of determining the type of the selected network based on the data indicating the selected content. Next, in step S22, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 determines whether or not a normal network is selected as a network. As a result, when the normal net assignment is selected (YES in step S22), in step S23, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes the determination process of the seafood item in the case of using the normal net assignment. Specifically, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 first clears the net result data 219. Next, four seafood items are determined by executing a lottery process of seafood items four times. Then, information indicating the determined four seafood items is stored in the net placement result data 219. Furthermore, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 stores the fish item indicated by the net result data 219 in the inventory data 215 of the player of the smart device 102 that has made the request. That is, a process of giving the determined seafood item to the player is performed.

  On the other hand, as a result of the step S22, when the selection operation of the normal pitching is not performed (NO in the step S22), the processor unit 121 of the server 101 determines whether or not the small fish pitching is selected in the step S24. judge. As a result, when the small fish net is selected (YES in step S24), in step S25, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes the determination process of the fish item when the small fish net is used. . Specifically, the processor unit 121 first clears the net result data 219. Next, the processor unit 121 performs seven lottery processes to determine seven fish items corresponding to the lottery frame item, and stores data indicating the determined fish items in the net placement result data 219. Furthermore, the processor unit 121 also stores data indicating the three fish items (fixed frame items in the small fish throw net) defined in the acquired data for small nets 217 in the net result data 219. Then, the processor unit 121 performs a process of storing the seafood item indicated by the net assignment result data 219 in the inventory data 215 of the request source player.

  On the other hand, as a result of the above-mentioned step S24, when the selection operation of small fish nets is not performed (NO in step S24), it is considered that medium-sized fish nets are selected. In this case, in step S26, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes a process of determining a seafood item in the case of using a medium size fish net. Specifically, the processor unit 121 first clears the net result data 219. Next, the processor unit 121 performs six lottery processes to determine six fish items corresponding to the lottery frame item, and stores data indicating the determined fish items in the net placement result data 219. Furthermore, the processor unit 121 also stores data indicating the four fish items (fixed frame items in medium size fish nets) defined in the acquired data for small nets 217 in the net result data 219. In addition, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 stores the fish item indicated by the net assignment result data 219 in the inventory data 215 of the request source player. Above, acquisition item decision processing ends.

  The acquired item determination process in step S8 may be configured to be executed by the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 instead of the server 101.

  Returning to FIG. 7, next, in step S9, the processor unit 121 of the server 101 executes a process of transmitting the above-mentioned net result data 219 indicating the current determination result to the smart device 102 of the request source. In step S10, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 receives the net result data 219.

  Next, in step S11, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 displays, based on the received net result data 219, an effect screen indicating how the player character performs a net release. Next, in step S12, the processor unit 111 of the smart device 102 executes display processing of a result screen showing the result of the net assignment. Specifically, based on the net result data 219, an image corresponding to the determined fish item is obtained from the object data 223, and a process of displaying a list of the fish items obtained by using each net on the screen is displayed. Do. That is, in the case of using the normal pitching, images of four fish items are displayed as a result of the pitching. Also, when small size nets or medium size nets are used, images of a total of 10 fish items are displayed as a result of pitching. Thus, the netcasting process by the smart device 102 and the server 101 ends.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when obtaining 10 seafood items by pitching net at one time, basically, while obtaining them by lottery processing, the contents of some seafood items are not drawn in advance, but the contents thereof are made beforehand. It is decided. Furthermore, the content of the determined amount is displayed in advance, and the player is made to grasp the determined content. In addition, the player is provided with a plurality of pitching nets having different contents of confirmation. This makes it possible to give at least two or more items desired by the player in a situation where the player is allowed to collect items in the game. As a result, it is possible to reduce the stress of the player involved in the item collection and to prevent the motivation for the game play from being lowered. In addition, it is possible to enjoy the game in accordance with the play style of each player (for example, the size of the time taken for game play, etc.).

[About the modification]
In addition, although the case where the object of a determination process is a seafood item was made into the example in the said embodiment, the object determined by a determination process is not restricted to this. For example, it may be a weapon item or armor item in a role playing game, and furthermore, not only an item but a fellow character or a monster may be targeted. In addition, a character card, a monster card or the like in a card game may be targeted. Besides, various contents used in the game may be targeted.

  Further, in the above example, the number of fish items that can be obtained at one time is different between the normal cast net and the small fish cast net and the medium fish cast net (the former is four and the latter is 10). In other embodiments, such a difference may not be provided. That is, also in the case of the above-mentioned regular pitch net, ten fish items may be made available at one time. In this case, using the normal pitching net will result in 10 lots of drawing.

  In the above embodiment, the number of fixed frames is different between the small fish net and the medium fish net, but in the other embodiments, the number of fixed frames is smaller for the small fish net and the medium fish net It may be the same. Further, in the above embodiment, the case where the number of consumption tickets is the same is used as an example when using the small fish net and the medium fish net, but the invention is not limited thereto, and the number of consumption tickets may be different between the two. .

  Moreover, in said example, it was set as ten types in all about a seafood item, and seven types of seafood items were defined in the said confirmation frame among this. In other words, the remaining three types of seafood items could only be obtained by lottery. In another embodiment, all the types of seafood items (that is, all of the lottery objects) can be covered by combining the decision frames of each pitch net by further increasing the types of pitch nets, etc. good. For example, in addition to the small fish throw net and the medium size fish throw net, the “large fish throw net” in which the remaining three types of fish items described above are set as the confirmation frame may be further provided. In other words, all three types of seafood items can be obtained by using these three types of pitchers.

  In another embodiment, the player may be able to customize the contents of the confirmation frame in the small fish throw net and the medium fish throw net. For example, in addition to the small size fish net and the medium size fish net, a type of customized pitch net may be provided to the player (in this case, the ticket consumption may be larger than the former two types of pitch nets) ). And it is good also as composition which can designate and set at least two or more kinds of items as the contents of the finalization frame (at least two or more frames are prepared) in the said customized pitch placement. For example, a customized net may be provided which allows the player to specify three types of seafood items. Further, as the data configuration in such a case, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, it is sufficient to store the customized net transfer definition data 231 for each player data 213 stored in the server 101. The customized pitching definition data 231 has contents indicating items specified by the player. Thereby, for example, if it is a quest for collecting a plurality of types of seafood items and the collection target is dispersed into the determined items in the small fish throw net and the confirmed items in the medium fish throw net, it is normal In this case, at least two casting nets are required, but it is possible to use only one casting net by using customized net casting. As a result, the convenience of the player can be enhanced, and it is also possible to provide a play method according to the play style of each player.

  In addition, instead of separately providing such customized throwing nets as described above, it is also possible for the player to be able to customize the above-mentioned confirmation frame for small fish throwing nets and medium size fish throwing nets. For example, the configuration is such that the player can designate the contents of the small fish throw net or the medium fish throw net decision frame only once by consuming a predetermined number of tickets (not as a usage fee for the net placement but as a customization cost). It may be Also, in this case, for example, for the contents that can be specified as the finalization frame for small fish nets, only seafood items classified as "small fish" can be specified, and can be specified for the midsize fish nets The contents may be configured such that only seafood items classified as "medium-sized fish" can be specified. Further, as the data configuration in such a case, it is preferable that the determined frame definition data 216 be provided for each player data 213 stored in the server 101.
