There is. Further, there is an application type in which the control unit 52 of the client terminal 2 performs processing related to the game based on the installed application.

  The player information storage unit 31 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, player information as shown in FIG. FIG. 5 is a block diagram of an example of player information. The player information in FIG. 5 includes, as items, a player ID, an owned toll stone, an owned toll free stone, an owned character information ID, and a registered character information ID.

  The player ID is an example of identification information for uniquely identifying the player. Owned charge stones represent the number of charge stones owned by the player. It should be noted that the pay stone may be another name such as a gem or coin, as long as it pays as consideration when purchasing the pay character directly or indirectly. Owned Free Stone represents the number of free stones owned by the player. In addition, as long as free stones are paid as compensation when acquiring free characters directly or indirectly, they may be other names such as gems and coins. The owned character information ID is information that links the owned character information stored in the owned character information storage unit 32 with the player information stored in the player information storage unit 31. The registered character information ID is information that links registered character information stored in the registered character information storage unit 36 with player information stored in the player information storage unit 31.

  The owned character information storage unit 32 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, owned character information uniquely identified by an owned character information ID as shown in FIG. 6A. FIG. 6A is a block diagram of an example of possessed character information. The owned character information of FIG. 6A has a character ID, a character name, a rank, an attribute, and a type as items.

  The character ID is an example of identification information for uniquely identifying a character. The character name is an example of information for identifying a character. The rank represents the rank of the character. An attribute represents an attribute of a character. The type represents the type of character. In FIG. 6A, the character of the character ID "c001" having the attribute "warrior" is an example of a pay character, and the character having the character ID "c002" having the attribute "absent" is an example of the free character.

  The game server device 3 can determine the pay character and the free character owned by the player by referring to the owned character information associated with the owned character information ID of the player information.

  The registered character information storage unit 36 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, registered character information uniquely identified by a registered character information ID as shown in FIG. 6B. FIG. 6B is a block diagram of an example of registered character information. Similar to the owned character information of FIG. 6A, the registered character information of FIG. 6B has a character ID, a character name, a rank, an attribute, and a type as items.

  For example, in FIG. 6B, the character of the character ID "c001" having the attribute "warrior" is an example of the pay character, and the characters of the character IDs "c002" and "c003" having the attribute "no" are the free character. Further, FIG. 6B shows an example of a paid character and a free character in which the characters of the character IDs “c001” and “c002” have the same (corresponding) character name “AAA”. Note that the registered character information storage unit 36 may store the pay character and the free character having the same character name as the same character ID and store them separately with differences in attributes.

  The character type specification information storage unit 33 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, character type specification information as shown in FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a block diagram of an example of character type identification information. The character type identification information in FIG. 7 is information indicating the type of the third character generated by composition from the combination of the type of the first character and the second character as the composition source (material character).

  For example, in the example of FIG. 7, the type of the third character generated by composition from the combination of the characters "angel" and "spirit" is "Genie", and the combination of the characters "genie" and "Genie" The type of the third character generated from the combination is "angel". By using the character type identification information of FIG. 7 in this manner, it is possible to specify the type of the third character generated by composition from the combination of the first and second character types.

  The character specifying information storage unit 34 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, character specifying information as shown in FIG. FIG. 8 is a block diagram of an example of the character specifying information. The character specifying information in FIG. 8 is a third character generated by combining the average of the ranks of the first character and the second character (the average of the source character rank) which are the combining source (source character), and the third character Information shown for each type of

  For example, in the example of FIG. 8, the numbers described at positions corresponding to “material character rank average” and “third character type” indicate the rank of the third character. The character is uniquely identified by the type and the rank. In the example of FIG. 8, when the material character rank average is “1 to 9” and the type of the third character is “angel”, the rank “3” of the third character can be specified, so the combination is generated. As the third character to be played, it is possible to specify the character of the rank "3" with the type "angel".

  Further, in the example of FIG. 8, the combination of the ranks of the first and second characters for generating the third character by combining is not one pattern. For example, the combination of the ranks of the first and second characters for generating the third character of the type “Genie” and the rank “39” by synthesis is, for example, as follows.

As described above, since the combination of the ranks of the first and second characters that generate the third character by combining is not one pattern, in the present embodiment, the player can easily generate the desired third character by combining. In addition, by setting the genie of rank 39 to one character, the player can more easily generate a desired third character. In addition, randomness may be added with the genie of rank 39 as a plurality of characters.

  The character information storage unit 35 of the storage unit 14 stores, for example, character information as shown in FIG. FIG. 9 is a block diagram of an example of character information. The character information in FIG. 9 is information indicating ability information of the character for each attribute of the character. The character information in FIG. 9 has items of purchase price, free acquisition method, HP, and availability of skill for each attribute.

  The purchase price represents a price (for example, the number of pay stones) when purchasing a pay character. The purchase price is “−” because the free character with the attribute “none” is not acquired by purchase. The free acquisition method indicates the acquisition method other than the purchase of the free character. Since the paid character can not be obtained other than direct or indirect purchase, the free acquisition method is "-".

  The HP and skill availability are examples of character ability information. In FIG. 9, as an example of a skill, he has replaced, changed, recovered magic, and attack magic. As shown in FIG. 9, the character differs in HP and available skills depending on the attribute. Therefore, when the player purchases the pay character directly or indirectly, in order to expect to obtain the pay character of the desired combination of the type and the attribute, the player must be able to obtain the pay character of the desired combination of the type and the attribute. For example, you may feel a big disappointment.

  In this embodiment, even if the combination of the type and the attribute of the acquired paid character is not a desired combination, a mechanism is provided which can change the combination of the type and the attribute by combining with other characters. Therefore, the player can generate and possess a pay character of a desired combination of type and attribute.

<Processing>
<< Composition processing >>
In the information processing system 1 according to the present embodiment, character composition processing is performed according to the procedure of FIG. 10, for example. FIG. 10 is a flowchart of an example of character composition processing. The player operates the operation receiving unit 50 to select two material characters. In step S11, the combining instruction unit 63 of the client terminal 2 receives the selection of two material characters based on the content of the operation received by the operation receiving unit 50 from the player. The combining instruction unit 63 transmits the combining instruction of the two material characters received from the player to the game server device 3.

  The composition processing unit 23 of the game server device 3 determines, based on the composition instruction of the two material characters by the player received from the client terminal 2, whether the two material characters include a pay character. If the pay character is included, the composition processing unit 23 proceeds to step S13, and performs a composition process of the pay character and the free character by the composition process with the attribute. On the other hand, if the pay character is not included, the combining processing unit 23 proceeds to step S14, and performs combining processing of free characters by combining processing without an attribute.

  The combining process with the attribute in step S13 is performed, for example, in the procedure shown in FIG. FIG. 11 is a flowchart of an example of combining processing with an attribute. Proceeding to step S21, the composition processing unit 23 refers to the character type identification information of FIG. 7, and generates a character (third character) generated by composition from a combination of types of two material characters (first and second characters) Identify the type of).

  In step S22, the composition processing unit 23 calculates the average value of the ranks of the material characters (material character rank average) from the ranks of the two material characters. Proceeding to step S23, the composition processing unit 23 refers to the character specifying information of FIG. 8 and which material character rank average range (line) of the character specifying information of FIG. 8 corresponds to the material character rank average calculated at step S22 judge. For example, if the material character rank average calculated in step S22 is "36", it is determined to be applied to the line of the range "rank 30 to 39" of the material character rank average.

  Further, the composition processing unit 23 sets the rank of the third character corresponding to the range (line) of the raw material character rank average applicable to the raw material character rank average calculated in step S22 and the type of the character specified in step S21. Identify from the character identification information of. Then, the composition processing unit 23 generates a third character corresponding to the rank of the specified third character and the type of the character specified in step S21.

  Then, the process proceeds to step S24, and the composition processing unit 23 selects the attribute of the third character so as to take over the attribute of the pay character among the material characters. For example, the combination of the first and second characters for generating the third character of "Genie of Rank 39" whose attribute is "warrior" by synthesis has a plurality of variations as follows, for example.

As described above, if it is desired to generate the third character whose attribute is "warrior" by combining, in this embodiment, combining is performed by combining the paid character whose attribute is "warrior" and the free character whose attribute is "none". It is good. In this embodiment, an example in which the composition processing unit 23 selects the attribute of the third character so as to take over the attribute of the pay character among the material characters has been described, but the third embodiment takes over the attribute of the free character. The attribute of the character of may be selected, or the player may be allowed to select which of the attributes of the pay character and the free character is to be taken over.

  Further, the composition processing unit 23 may select the attribute of the third character from the combination of the attributes of the first and second material characters based on the attribute specifying information as shown in FIG. 12, for example. FIG. 12 is a block diagram of an example of attribute identification information. The attribute specifying information in FIG. 12 is information indicating the attribute of the third character generated by composition from the combination of the material character attributes.

Hint display processing
In the information processing system 1 according to the present embodiment, for example, hint display of a character generated by combining material characters as shown in FIG. 13 is performed. FIG. 13 is an image diagram of an example of hint display.

  For example, before the combining processing unit 23 starts combining processing, the hint information creating unit 25 of the game server device 3 generates hint information for performing the hint display of FIG. 13 based on an instruction from the player. In the hint display in FIG. 13, the alphabet surrounded by a large square represents a character, the symbol surrounded by a small square below the large square represents an attribute of the character, and a circle surrounded by a large square below The symbol indicates the type of character.

  Further, in the hint display of FIG. 13, the character whose large square is a solid line is a character owned by the player, and the character whose large square is a dotted line is a character not owned by the player. Also, a character whose large square is a thick line is a pay character, and a character whose large square is a thin line is a free character. Furthermore, the hint display in FIG. 13 is an example of selecting the attribute of the third character so as to inherit the attribute of the pay character.

  The hint display of FIG. 13 can be realized by generating the hint information from the player information, the possessed character information, the character type identification information, and the character identification information described above by the hint information generation unit 25 of the game server device 3. According to the hint display of FIG. 13, it is possible to show the player the third character, which is easy to be generated by composition, as a hint based on the paid character and the free character possessed by the player.

  In the hint display of FIG. 13, for example, the paid characters and the free characters necessary for generating the character “Z” whose attribute is “warrior” and the type “angel” which are finally desired to be generated are generated over multiple generations. It may be shown by a figure.

  For example, even if the player who confirms the hint display in FIG. 13 does not purchase the paid character “A” that he does not possess, the free character “P” generated by combining the free characters “R” and “S” is generated. For example, it can be easily confirmed that the character “Z” whose attribute is “warrior” and type “angel” can finally be generated by synthesis. Thus, the hint display of FIG. 13 makes it easier for the player to generate a desired third character by synthesis.

  In addition, if the player who confirms the hint display in FIG. 13 can acquire the pay character "A" not owned by using the character all-writing function, the character "Z" whose attribute is "warrior" and the type is "angel" Can be easily confirmed by synthesis.

  FIG. 14 is an image diagram of an example of the character full-write function screen. The character complete function screen 1000 of FIG. 14 displays a character list 1002, a sort button 1004, a summon button 1006, an attribute tab 1008, and character information 1010.

By utilizing the character list 1002 in FIG. 14 or the character list 1002 a in FIG. 16, the player can easily summon characters, and the composition of characters is promoted.

  The character all-writing function processing unit 27 registers the pay character purchased by the player and the free character acquired by the player in the registered character information storage unit 36 of the storage unit 14 in the procedure shown in FIG. 17, for example. FIG. 17 is a flowchart of an example of registered character information management processing.

  Proceeding to step S51, the character all-writing function processing unit 27 of the game server device 3 is notified that the player has purchased a paid character or acquired a free character. If the paid character is purchased, the character all-writing function processing unit 27 proceeds to step S53, and registers the paid character purchased by the player and the free character having the same character name as the paid character in the character all book. For example, in the example of the registered character information of FIG. 6B, the pay character of the character ID “c001” purchased by the player and the free character of the character ID “c002” having the same character name “AAA” as the pay character are characters Registered in the whole book. When the player purchases a pay character, the character all-document function processing unit 27 may register free characters of different character names corresponding to the pay character in the character full book.

May be registered in the whole character book.

  If the paid character has not been purchased, the character all-writing function processing unit 27 proceeds to step S54, and registers the free character acquired by the player in the character whole book. For example, in the example of the registered character information of FIG. 6B, the free character of the character ID "c003" acquired by the player is registered in the character whole book, but a pay character having the same character name "BBB" as the character ID "c003" Is not registered in the character whole book because the free character is registered in the character whole book.

  Although the registered character information stored in the registered character information storage unit 36 is registered as an initial parameter at the time of purchase or acquisition, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the parameter is automatically or manually updated according to the growth of the registered character. It may be done.

  Even if the character all-book function processing unit 27 is a paid character purchased by the player or an acquired free character, the specific character may not be registered in the character whole book. As a result, the player can not easily reacquire the specific character using the entire character book, and the value of the character can be enhanced.

(Summary)
