Description

  The present invention relates to a game system, an item lottery method, and a program that can appropriately activate a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate.

Conventionally, various games have been provided in smartphones and game devices. For example, in a social game or the like, an item lottery (lottery game) called “gacha” can be executed.
In this gacha, for example, a lottery is performed based on a winning probability set for each item, and the winning item is given to the user. Higher rank items (items with a higher degree of rarity) that can advance the game more advantageously have lower winning probabilities, so even if you run many gachas, such high rank items May not be available.

  Recently, an item lottery of a type in which a plurality of gachas are continuously executed, as represented by “10-line gacha”, is also known. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses an invention of a game device characterized in that, in ten consecutive gachas, lottery is performed so that the same type of items (cards) do not win.

Japanese Patent No. 6284105

The above-mentioned 10 consecutive gachas are attractive item lotteries for users, such as one or more high-ranking items must be won. Still, since the consideration (in-game currency, billing items, etc.) to be consumed is high to some extent, light users (for example, beginners of the game) and the like often cannot participate in the 10-game gacha.
For this reason, it is also conceivable that a plurality of users can participate and perform ten consecutive gacha. In other words, even if the user alone is expensive, the consideration required for participation can be kept low if one of the plurality of users cannot pay the 10-unit gacha consideration. Therefore, even a light user or the like can participate in such a ten-line gacha.

  However, when a plurality of users participate and can perform a 10-game gacha, a lottery is performed in the same manner as a normal 10-game gacha, and by presenting the result, there is no sense of unity between the participating users. There is concern that it will not be born and lack excitement.

  For this reason, there has been a demand for a technique that allows users to feel a sense of unity in a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate and can be excited as a whole.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a game system, an item lottery method, and a program capable of appropriately activating a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate.

The game system according to the present invention includes:
A game system that provides a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate together,
With the progress of the lottery game, a lottery unit that draws items over a certain period of time;
A collection unit for collecting messages input by each of the plurality of users;
A presenting unit that presents the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery performed by the lottery unit and the messages collected by the collecting unit in the lottery process to the plurality of users;
A granting unit that grants a lottery item to any of the plurality of users after the lottery unit finishes the lottery;
The lottery unit changes the end time of the lottery started according to the message collected by the collection unit in the lottery process.
It is characterized by that.

  According to the present invention, a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate can be appropriately activated.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. In the following, in order to facilitate understanding, an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a game system that controls a game (such as a social game) that is executed using a smartphone or the like will be described. For example, the present invention can be similarly applied to control various games executed using an information processing apparatus such as a notebook personal computer, a game machine, or a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant).
In other words, the embodiments described below are for illustrative purposes and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, those skilled in the art can employ embodiments in which each or all of these elements are replaced with equivalent ones, and these embodiments are also included in the scope of the present invention.

(overall structure)
As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is configured such that a game server 200 and a user terminal 300 are communicably connected via the Internet 900.
Although simplified in the figure, it is assumed that there are a large number of user terminals 300 according to the users to be used.

The game server 200 is, for example, a server device (server computer) or the like, and communicates with the user terminal 300 to control the progress of a game (for example, a social game).
In the game controlled by the game server 200, a lottery game called “gacha” can be executed. That is, when execution of gacha is requested from the user terminal 300, the game server 200 performs a lottery from an item group based on a lottery condition in which a winning probability or the like is set for each item. To the user of the terminal 300.
Further, the “item” is not limited to a general item in the game, and will be described below as including, for example, a character, weapon, armor, magic, skill, and the like.

As an example, in the game controlled by the game server 200, three types of gachas including “single gacha”, “ten gachas”, and “ten gachas together” can be executed.
Single-shot gacha is a basic gacha that, for example, draws one item per gacha and grants the selected item to the user. For example, coins that are in-game currency The amount is set low.
Ten consecutive gacha is a gacha that, for example, 10 gachas are continuously performed, a total of 10 items are drawn, and the winning items are given to the user, and the amount of consideration to be consumed is high (as an example, It is characterized in that one or more items of high rank (platinum rank described later) are always won. Note that the names of ten consecutive gachas and the number of consecutive gachas (10 times) are examples, and other names (multiple times) of gachas are continuously performed with other names. It may be.
These single-shot gachas and 10-line gachas are gachas that the user challenges alone, and when the price is consumed, the items are selected and the selected item is given to the user. .

On the other hand, the 10-game gacha is a 10-game gacha characterized by a plurality of users participating. That is, even in a situation where the user alone cannot pay the expensive 10 gacha consideration, if the user alone is one of the plurality of users, the consideration required for participation can be kept low. For this reason, even a light user (for example, a beginner of a game) or the like can participate in 10 consecutive gachas together. In the 10-game gacha, everyone who participates can freely input a message and present the message to each user together with the lottery process so that the user can get excited.
In addition, in order to facilitate understanding of the invention, it is assumed that 10 users participate in 10 consecutive gachas, and each user is given one of the 10 selected items. However, the number of participating users is not limited to such 10 people, and may be other numbers. For example, two users may participate and 5 of the 10 items won may be awarded, respectively, or 2 of the 10 items that 5 users may participate and win. May be given respectively.

The user terminal 300 is a smartphone or the like, for example, and progresses a game (for example, a social game) while accessing the game server 200 via the Internet 900.
For example, the user terminal 300 requests the game server 200 to execute any of the various gacha described above in response to a user operation. When a gacha is executed in the game server 200 (when an item lottery is performed), the user of the user terminal 300 can acquire the winning item. In addition, the details will be described later in the case of 10 consecutive gachas performed by a plurality of users, but in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery, the participating users can input messages, respectively, and the lottery process is performed by the messages. It is possible to influence. Then, the selected item is appropriately distributed, and the participating user acquires any item.
If the item acquired in this way is a high-ranking item, the user can advance the game being played more advantageously by using the item as appropriate in accordance with the game situation.

(Outline configuration of information processing device)
A typical information processing apparatus 400 in which the game server 200 and the user terminal 300 according to the embodiment of the present invention are realized will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the information processing apparatus 400 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 401, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 402, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 403, a storage device 404, a display device 405, A communication device 406 and an operation device 407 are provided.

  The CPU 401 controls the overall operation of the information processing apparatus 400 and is connected to each component to exchange control signals and data.

  The ROM 402 records an IPL (Initial Program Loader) that is executed immediately after the power is turned on, and when this is executed, a predetermined program is read into the RAM 403 and execution of the program by the CPU 401 is started.

  The RAM 403 is for temporarily storing data and programs, and holds programs and data read from the storage device 404 and other data necessary for communication.

  The storage device 404 is an SSD (Solid State Drive), a hard disk, or the like, and stores various data. For example, the storage device 404 stores an operating system program, various applications, associated data, and the like necessary for operation control of the entire information processing apparatus 400.

  The display device 405 includes, for example, a display device such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), a VRAM (Video Random Access Memory) that stores image information to be displayed on the display device, and an image process for processing the image information. Part. The image processing unit processes the data read from the storage device 404 or the data processed by the CPU 401, and then stores the data in the VRAM to generate image information.

  The communication device 406 performs wireless communication using a mobile communication network, a wireless local area network (LAN), or the like. Note that the communication device 406 may perform wired communication using a wired LAN or the like. Furthermore, the communication device 406 may perform wireless communication with another information processing apparatus 400 existing in the vicinity by short-range wireless communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark).

  The operation device 407 is a touch screen, a touch pad, a button, a keyboard, a mouse, or the like, and accepts a user operation. Note that a user operation may be received by voice.

  Hereinafter, the configuration and the like of the game server 200 realized in the information processing apparatus 400 will be described with reference to FIGS. When the information processing apparatus 400 is turned on, a program that functions as the game server 200 (the server apparatus according to the present invention) is executed, and the game server 200 according to the present embodiment is realized.

(Outline configuration of game server)
FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the game server 200 according to the present embodiment. As illustrated, the game server 200 includes a reception unit 210, a transmission unit 220, a storage unit 230, and a control unit 240, and supports the progress of the game executed on the user terminal 300.

The receiving unit 210 receives various information transmitted from the user terminal 300 via the Internet 900.
For example, the receiving unit 210 receives from the user terminal 300 selection information such as various operation information during the game and selection of items on a predetermined selection screen. Note that the selection information includes information requesting execution of the above-described gacha. In addition, when ten consecutive gachas are executed together, the receiving unit 210 receives messages sent from the user terminals 300 of the participating users in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery.
The communication device 406 and the like described above can function as such a receiving unit 210.

The transmission unit 220 transmits various information to the user terminal 300 via the Internet 900.
For example, the transmission unit 220 transmits response information according to the operation information and various screens (such as a lottery result screen and a lottery screen described later) according to the gacha to be executed to the user terminal 300.
The communication device 406 and the like described above can function as such a transmission unit 220.

  The storage unit 230 stores various information necessary for the progress control of the game. For example, the storage unit 230 stores user management information 231, item group 232, lottery condition information 233, special lottery condition information 234, lottery process management information 235, and the like.

The user management information 231 is information for managing the user of each user terminal 300, and includes information as shown in FIG. 4 as an example.
That is, the user management information 231 includes a user ID 231a, a level value 231b, a coin balance 231c, an owned item 231d, a play time 231e, and the like.
The level value 231b is a value indicating the degree of progress of the game for the user (user of the user terminal 300). Instead of such a level value 231b, a game rank or the like may be stored.
Further, the coin balance 231c indicates the balance of coins (which is an example and may be another name) that is the in-game currency acquired by the user. In the following, a case where a predetermined amount of coins is paid (consumed) as consideration for executing gacha will be described. However, even if gacha is executed by paying a consideration different from such in-game currency. Good. For example, when a billing item (in-game gem purchased separately by the user) is used as a price for executing the gacha, the balance of such billing item is also stored in the user management information 231 as appropriate.
The owned item 231d is information (item ID) for identifying an item owned by the user. In principle, the items owned by the user are given from the game server 200 by executing the gacha, but separately from the gacha, according to the progress of the game (for example, by clearing the quest, etc.) Various items may be acquired. In this case, for example, an item ID may be given a branch number so that the acquisition reason can be identified by the branch number.
And the play time 231e is a value which shows the accumulation play time which the user played the game. Note that an average play time per unit period may be stored instead of the accumulated play time.

  Returning to FIG. 3, the item group 232 is information on all items that can be acquired by the user in the game. The item group 232 includes items given to the user by gacha, and such items have a winning probability as described later.

The lottery condition information 233 is information generated by the control unit 240 (a lottery condition generation unit 241 described later) when a gacha is executed.
The lottery condition information 233 includes information as shown in FIG. 5 as an example.
That is, the lottery condition information 233 includes an item ID 233a, a rank 233b, an attribute 233c, a winning probability 233d, and the like.
The rank 233b indicates the grade (class) of items in the game. For example, "Platinum" (platinum rank), "Gold" (gold rank), "Silver" (silver rank) It is prescribed. When a high-ranking platinum-rank item is used in a game (including a character operated by a user), the game can be advanced more advantageously. Further, instead of using such a rank, a rare degree may be used. In that case, for example, “super rare (SR)”, “rare (R)”, and “common (C)” may be defined in descending order of the rare degree.
The attribute 233c indicates the characteristics of the item in the game. For example, the effect (attack power, defense power, etc.) when using the item differs depending on the game situation.
The winning probability 233d indicates the probability that the item will win when the control unit 240 (the lottery unit 242 described later) performs the lottery. The higher the rank (rank 233b), the lower the probability. Has been. In other words, when a gacha is executed, platinum rank items are much harder to win.

Returning to FIG. 3, the special lottery condition information 234 is information that is further generated by the control unit 240 when a 10-run gacha or a 10-run gacha is executed together.
The special lottery condition information 234 includes information as shown in FIG. 6 as an example. That is, like the lottery condition information 233 described above, the special lottery condition information 234 includes the item ID 234a, the rank 234b, the attribute 234c, the winning probability 234d, and the like. The special lottery condition information 234 is different from the lottery condition information 233 in that the special lottery condition information 234 is composed of only platinum rank items.
As described above, in the case of 10 consecutive gachas or 10 consecutive gachas, it is determined that at least one platinum-ranked item is always won. Therefore, in any one of the ten times in these ten consecutive gachas (for example, one selected randomly), the lottery based on the special lottery condition information 234 is performed. ing.

Returning to FIG. 3, the lottery process management information 235 is information generated by the control unit 240 in order to manage the lottery process when ten consecutive gachas are executed together.
In the 10-game gacha, everyone can participate in the 10-game gacha in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery. The lottery end time can be changed.
The lottery process management information 235 includes, for example, information as shown in FIG. 7 in order to manage the lottery process in the ten consecutive gachas. That is, the lottery process management information 235 includes a remaining time 235a, a participating user ID 235b, a keyword 235c, a message group 235d, and the like.

The remaining time 235a indicates the remaining time until the end of the lottery. The remaining time 235a is set to a certain time (for example, 60 seconds) at the start of the lottery, and is decreased by the control unit 240 (the lottery unit 242 described later) as time passes after the lottery starts. In addition, in the lottery process, when a message or a combination of messages input from a participating user includes a character string set in the keyword 235c, the controller 240 sets a predetermined value (for example, 10 Seconds) is added. Even after the predetermined value is added to the remaining time 235a, the value of the remaining time 235a is decreased by the control unit 240 as time elapses. When the remaining time 235a becomes zero, the lottery is finished.
The participating user ID 235b is information for identifying users who have participated in the 10-game gacha. In the example of FIG. 7, a case where 10 users are participating is illustrated.
The keyword 235c is appropriately set and compared with a message (or a combination of a plurality of messages) input from a participating user every time ten consecutive gachas are executed together. For example, the keyword 235c is selected and set at random from a character string group expected to be input as a message. This keyword 235c only defines how to read, and is compared with a message (or a combination of messages) input by the user between the readings. That is, even if the message from the user is composed of kanji, hiragana, katakana, or the like, if the keyword 235c is read, it is determined to match.
The message group 235d stores messages input by participating users in the lottery process. The message group 235d is used for display (horizontal scroll display) on a lottery screen, which will be described later, and collation with the keyword 235c. Note that the message or message combination that matches the keyword 235c (message or message combination including the character string indicated by the keyword 235c) is after a predetermined value is added to the remaining time 235a, and is displayed in a horizontal scrolling manner. Is deleted from the message group 235d.

In addition to this, the storage unit 230 stores various information necessary for processing performed by the control unit 240. For example, the storage unit 230 also stores notification information notified to the user in the game, various event information, and the like.
The RAM 403, the storage device 404, and the like described above can function as such a storage unit 230.

Returning to FIG. 3, the control unit 240 controls the entire game server 200 and supports the progress of the game executed on the user terminal 300.
The control unit 240 includes, for example, a lottery condition generation unit 241, a lottery unit 242, a collection unit 243, a presentation unit 244, an item grant unit 245, and the like. In the following, in order to facilitate understanding of the invention, the presentation unit 244 on the game server 200 side generates various screens (such as a lottery result screen and a lottery screen described later) and presents them to the user terminal 300. However, this is an example, and various screens may be presented on the user terminal 300 by other methods. For example, as will be described later, the game server 200 and the user terminal 300 may cooperate with each other, and finally various screens may be generated on the user terminal 300 side.

When the user terminal 300 requests execution of gacha, the lottery condition generation unit 241 generates lottery condition information that defines the lottery conditions.
For example, the lottery condition generation unit 241 extracts a predetermined number of items from the item group 232 and generates the lottery condition information 233 as shown in FIG. 5 described above. When the composition ratio of each rank in the lottery condition information 233 is determined (for example, platinum rank is 10%, gold rank is 30%, silver rank is 60%, etc.), the lottery condition generation unit 241 Are extracted from the item group 232 by the number corresponding to the composition ratio, and the lottery condition information 233 is generated. At that time, the lottery condition generation unit 241 may appropriately change the method of extracting items from the item group 232 according to the level value of the user who requested execution of the gacha (the level value 231b of the user management information 231).
In addition, when 10 consecutive gachas or execution of 10 consecutive gachas is requested together, the lottery condition generation unit 241 further extracts a predetermined number of platinum rank items from the item group 232 and shows the above-described FIG. Such special lottery condition information 234 is generated.

The lottery unit 242 executes a lottery game based on lottery conditions in which the winning probability of each item is defined.
That is, the lottery unit 242 randomly draws items based on the lottery condition information 233 generated by the lottery condition generation unit 241.
For example, when execution of a single shot gacha is requested, the lottery unit 242 performs lottery of one item based on the lottery condition information 233.
In addition, when execution of 10 consecutive gachas or 10 consecutive gachas is requested together, in 9 out of 10 times, the lottery unit 242 selects one item (total 9) based on the lottery condition information 233. Lottery items). Then, in one out of ten times, the lottery unit 242 performs lottery of one item based on the special lottery condition information 234.
In addition, when 10 consecutive gachas are performed together, the lottery unit 242 draws items by spending a certain time or more. When a message input by a participating user in the lottery process (a message collected by the collection unit 243 described later) matches the keyword 235c of the lottery process management information 235 described above (a message or a combination of messages is indicated in the keyword 235c). If the character string is included), the lottery unit 242 changes the end time of the lottery that has been started. For example, when the message input from the participating user matches the keyword 235c, the lottery unit 242 adds a predetermined value (for example, 10 seconds) to the remaining time 235a of the lottery process management information 235, Extend the end time.
In addition, in this way, not only the end time of the lottery is extended, but conversely, the end time may be shortened. For example, when a predetermined time has passed without a message exceeding a predetermined number (predetermined amount) being input from the participating users, even if the messages are input up to a predetermined number, those messages are limited to inputs from some of the participating users. The lottery unit 242 determines whether the lottery process 242a of the lottery process management information 235 includes the remaining time 235a in the lottery process management information 235. A predetermined value (for example, 10 seconds) is subtracted to shorten the lottery end time.

The collecting unit 243 collects messages input from the participating users in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery when the ten consecutive gachas are executed together.
That is, the collection unit 243 collects messages input by each participating user through the reception unit 210 on a lottery screen to be described later.

The presentation unit 244 generates various screens and presents them on the user terminal 300.
For example, the presentation unit 244 generates and transmits a list screen of various gachas, a screen for appropriately informing the lottery results by gacha, and a screen for notifying the participating users of the lottery process in ten consecutive gachas. The information is presented to the user terminal 300 through the unit 220.

Specifically, the presentation unit 244 generates a gacha list screen 510 as shown in FIG. 8 and presents it on the user terminal 300.
The gacha list screen 510 includes a request button 511 for requesting execution of a single shot gacha, a request button 512 for requesting execution of a 10-line gacha, and a request for requesting execution of 10-line gacha together. Button 513 is included. When any of the request buttons 511 to 513 is pressed (touched or clicked) by the user in a state where the gacha list screen 510 is presented on the user terminal 300, the corresponding gacha is executed by the game server 200. Required.

In addition, when the request button 513 is pressed and execution of ten consecutive gachas is requested together, for example, a waiting ID or the like can be input, and a plurality of users who are informed of the waiting ID or the like are the same. Everyone can participate in 10 consecutive gacha.
In addition to this, when everyone is requested to execute 10 consecutive gachas, they will be transferred to the waiting lobby so that users who match in the waiting lobby can participate in the 10 consecutive gachas together. May be. Furthermore, when everyone is required to execute 10 consecutive gachas, a dedicated page is allocated, and users can distribute a link to the dedicated page by e-mail or short message. From the distributed link, Each user may be allowed to participate in 10 consecutive gachas with the same everyone.
Then, by gathering 10 users who participate, 10 consecutive gachas are executed together.

In addition, when the request button 512 is pressed on the gacha list screen 510 and execution of 10 consecutive gachas is requested, the lottery unit 242 draws 10 items. And the presentation part 244 produces | generates the lottery result screen 520 as shown in FIG. 9, and shows it to the user terminal 300 which requested | required gacha.
On the lottery result screen 520, the user can confirm the 10 items won in the 10-game gacha.
When a request button 511 is pressed on the gacha list screen 510 and execution of a single shot gacha is requested, the lottery unit 242 performs lottery of one item. And the presentation part 244 produces | generates similarly the lottery result screen which can confirm one selected item, and shows it to the user terminal 300 which requested | required gacha.

Further, as described above, when 10 users who participate in the 10-game gacha gather together, the lottery unit 242 spends a certain time or more to draw items. At that time, the presentation unit 244 generates a lottery screen for notifying the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery, and presents it to participating users (each user who participates in the ten consecutive gachas).
For example, the presentation unit 244 generates a lottery screen 530 as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B and presents it to the participating users. Note that the lottery screen 530 in FIG. 10A illustrates a state when the lottery is started. In this lottery screen 530, a reel 531 on which a plurality of items to be drawn are arranged, a selection gauge 532 for displaying any item in the reel 531, and an input for a participating user to input an arbitrary message A column 533 and an icon group 534 for a participating user to input a standard message are included. Note that the lottery screen 530 in FIGS. 10A and 10B shows only one reel 531, but is only an example, and other ten reels 531 may be arranged. . The icon group 534 includes a plurality of icons with different facial expressions. When any one of the icons is operated, a standard message corresponding to the facial expression of the icon is input.
Then, when the lottery of ten consecutive gachas is started together, the presentation unit 244 rotates (circulates) the reel 531 as shown in FIG. At this time, when a message is input from the input field 533 or the like, the presentation unit 244 scrolls and displays the message MS in the horizontal direction (from the right end to the left end), for example, as shown in FIG. That is, the presentation unit 244 presents the messages input by the participating users to the participating users together with the manner in which the reel 531 rotates.
Then, the presentation unit 244 stops the rotation of the reel 531 according to the lottery end time of the lottery unit 242. For example, the presentation unit 244 changes the rotation speed (circulation speed) according to the value of the remaining time 235a of the lottery process management information 235 described above. That is, the rotational speed is gradually decreased with the passage of time after the lottery starts.
As described above, when the message input by the participating user or a combination of messages matches the character string set in the keyword 235c of the lottery process management information 235, the lottery unit 242 causes the remaining time 235a to be displayed. A predetermined value (for example, 10 seconds) is added to. Accordingly, the presentation unit 244 increases the rotation speed of the reel 531 by a certain rate. Even after the predetermined value is added to the remaining time 235a, the value of the remaining time 235a is decreased with the passage of time, so that the presentation unit 244 also increases the rotation speed with the passage of time. It will be gradually reduced.
Then, the presentation unit 244 stops the rotation of the reel 531 at the timing when the value of the remaining time 235a becomes zero. At that time, the presentation unit 244 adjusts the arrangement of items on the reel 531 so that the same item as the lottery result performed by the lottery unit 242 based on the lottery condition information 233 described above stops at the selection gauge 532. . When there is one reel 531, the selection item 532 is adjusted so that the same item as one item out of the ten items lottery unit 242 stops.

Such a lottery process is represented by the rotation of the reel 531 as an example, and the lottery process may be represented by other methods. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, the presentation unit 244 indicates an input field 533, an icon group 534, an item board 535 in which a plurality of items to be drawn are circularly arranged, and any item in the item board 535. A lottery screen 530 including an arrow 536 may be generated and presented to the participating users. When the lottery is started, the presentation unit 244 rotates the direction of the arrow 536 around the shaft 537 (circulation movement) and then stops the drawing. In addition, in FIG. 11, although the case where the arrow 536 arrange | positioned inside the item board 535 is rotated is illustrated, it is an example and it may be made to point to any item in the item board 535 by another method. Good. For example, the position such as an arrow arranged outside the item board 535 may be circulated and then stopped. Conversely, the item board 535 may be rotated (circulated) by fixing the arrow 536 side.
In the lottery screen 530 as shown in FIG. 11, as in FIG. 10B, the message input from the participating user is displayed in a horizontal scroll manner in the lottery process. That is, the presentation unit 244 presents the messages input by the participating users to the participating users together with the state where the arrow 536 rotates.

In addition to this, the lottery process may be expressed by another method. For example, as shown in FIG. 12A, the presentation unit 244 generates a lottery screen 530 including an input field 533, an icon group 534, and a secret item 538 that conceals a plurality of items to be selected. May be presented to participating users. The concealment item 538 conceals the lottery item in a silhouette display. When the lottery is started, the secret item 538 is partially canceled from the silhouette display (decreasing the level of secrecy), and when the lottery is completed, the secret item 538 is displayed so that the selected item can be visually recognized. In addition, it is not restricted to the case of concealing by such a silhouette display, but you may also conceal the item to be selected by partial display or mosaic display.
Then, when the lottery is started, the presenting unit 244 scrolls and displays the message MS in the horizontal direction while reducing the degree of secrecy of the secrecy item 538, as shown in FIG. That is, the presentation unit 244 presents the messages input by the participating users to the participating users together with a state in which the secret item 538 is clarified.

  Returning to FIG. 3, the item assigning unit 245 gives the user the item selected by the lottery unit 242. For example, when a single shot gacha or a 10-run gacha is executed, the item granting unit 245 gives the user the item that is lottery by the lottery unit 242. In addition, when ten consecutive gachas are executed together, the item assigning unit 245 distributes and assigns ten items lottery by the lottery unit 242 to each of the participating users. Note that the allocation method may be randomly assigned, or the items won in the lottery order may be assigned according to the ascending order (or descending order) of the user IDs of the participating users.

In addition to this, the control unit 240 also collects compensation for the execution of the gacha. That is, the control unit 240 performs processing such as subtracting the amount of consideration from the corresponding user's coin balance 231c in the user management information 231.
The above-described CPU 401 or the like can function as the control unit 240 having such a configuration.

  Hereinafter, the configuration and the like of the user terminal 300 realized in the information processing apparatus 400 will be described with reference to FIGS. When the information processing apparatus 400 is turned on, a program that functions as the user terminal 300 (terminal apparatus according to the present invention) is executed, and the user terminal 300 according to the present embodiment is realized.

(Outline configuration of user terminal)
FIG. 13 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the user terminal 300 according to the present embodiment. As illustrated, the user terminal 300 includes an operation reception unit 310, a transmission / reception unit 320, a storage unit 330, a control unit 340, and a display unit 350. For example, the user terminal 300 can appropriately communicate with the game server 200 while playing a game. To proceed.

The operation reception unit 310 receives various operations from the user. For example, the operation reception unit 310 receives an operation from the user based on information obtained from a touch screen or the like.
The operation device 407 and the like described above can function as such an operation reception unit 310.

The transmission / reception unit 320 accesses the game server 200 via the Internet 900 and transmits / receives information necessary for the progress of the game.
For example, the transmission / reception unit 320 receives various screens transmitted from the game server 200 (the gacha list screen 510, the lottery result screen 520, the lottery screen 530, etc. described above).
In addition, the transmission / reception unit 320 transmits operation information and selection information for various screens to the game server 200.
The communication device 406 and the like described above can function as such a transmission / reception unit 320.

  The storage unit 330 stores, for example, game management information 331 and the like.

For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the game management information 331 includes a user ID 331a, a level value 331b, a coin balance 331c, an owned item 331d, a play time 331e, and the like. That is, the same information as the above-described user management information 231 is also managed on the user terminal 300 side.
The information stored in the game management information 331 is appropriately synchronized with the user management information 231 stored on the game server 200 side, as will be described later.

In addition to this, the storage unit 330 also stores image data such as items and characters in the game. As will be described later, when the user terminal 300 side (screen generation unit 342) generates the lottery screen 530 and the like, the storage unit 330 also stores various icon images and the like.
The storage device 404 and the like described above can function as such a storage unit 330.

  Returning to FIG. 13, the control unit 340 controls the entire user terminal 300. The control unit 340 includes, for example, a game progression unit 341, a screen generation unit 342, and the like.

The game progression unit 341 executes the game, and advances the game according to the user operation received by the operation reception unit 310. At that time, the game progression unit 341 transmits / receives data to / from the game server 200 through the transmission / reception unit 320, for example, information managed by the game management information 331 and information managed by the user management information 231 ( The corresponding user information).
In addition, when any of the request buttons 511 to 513 is pressed by the user while the above-described gacha list screen 510 of FIG. 8 is displayed on the display unit 350, the game progress unit 341 causes the game server 200 to gacha. Request execution.
When a message is input from the input field 533 or the like while the lottery screen 530 as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B is displayed on the display unit 350, the game progression unit 341 The message together with the user ID of the user is transmitted to the game server 200 through the transmission / reception unit 320.

The screen generation unit 342 generates a game screen or the like. That is, various screens for the user to advance the game are generated.
As described above, the gacha list screen 510, the lottery result screen 520, and the lottery screen 530 are generated on the game server 200 side (presentation unit 244), but instead of the presentation unit 244, the screen The generation unit 342 may generate these screens.
In that case, only the element data handled as a variable is sent from the game server 200 side to the user terminal 300, and when the element data is received through the transmission / reception unit 320, the screen generation unit 342 displays the element data and the storage unit 330. Various screens are generated based on the information stored in the screen. As an example, the case where the lottery screen 530 is generated will be described. From the game server 200 side to the user terminal 300, the remaining time until the lottery ends (remaining time 235a of the lottery process management information 235) and the participating users Only collected messages are sent. Then, the screen generation unit 342 generates the lottery screen 530 as shown in FIG. 10B by rotating the reel 531 at a speed corresponding to the remaining time and horizontally scrolling the message MS. To do. In addition, the screen generation unit 342 may generate the lottery screen 530 as shown in FIG. 11 or FIG. 12, similarly to the presentation unit 244.

In addition to this, the control unit 340 appropriately executes processing necessary for the progress of the game, such as superimposing notification information and the like sent from the game server 200 on the game screen and displaying them on the display unit 350.
The above-described CPU 401 and the like can function as the control unit 340 having such a configuration.

The display unit 350 displays the game screen generated by the screen generation unit 342. The display unit 350 also displays various screens sent from the game server 200 (gacha list screen 510, lottery result screen 520, lottery screen 530, etc.). As described above, these various screens may be generated on the user terminal 300 side, and even in that case, the display unit 350 displays the various screens generated by the screen generation unit 342.
Note that the display device 405 and the like described above can function as such a display unit 350.

(Game server operation)
The operation of the game server 200 configured as shown in FIG. 3 will be described below with reference to FIG. The game server 200 controls the overall progress of the game executed on the user terminal 300, and among them, the most characteristic item lottery process in the 10-game gacha will be described.
FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing the flow of the item lottery process according to the present embodiment. This item lottery process is a process in the case where ten consecutive gachas are executed together in the game server 200. For example, in the plurality of user terminals 300 on which the gacha list screen 510 as shown in FIG. Each of the buttons 513 is pressed, and the process starts when ten users who participate in the ten consecutive gacha gather.

First, the game server 200 generates lottery condition information and lottery process management information (step S11).
That is, the control unit 240 (lottery condition generation unit 241) extracts the items of each rank from the item group 232 by the number corresponding to the composition ratio, and generates lottery condition information 233 as shown in FIG. Furthermore, the control unit 240 extracts a predetermined number of platinum rank items from the item group 232, and generates special lottery condition information 234 as shown in FIG.
Moreover, the control part 240 (lottery part 242) produces | generates the lottery process management information 235 as shown in FIG. At that time, the control unit 240 sets a certain time (for example, 60 seconds) as the remaining time 235a of the lottery process management information 235, and then decreases the value of the remaining time 235a as time elapses. .

The game server 200 generates a lottery screen and presents it to the participating users, and starts lottery of items (step S12).
That is, for example, the control unit 240 (presentation unit 244) generates a lottery screen 530 as shown in FIG. 10A and presents it to the participating users. Note that the controller 240 immediately rotates (circulates) the reel 531 as shown in FIG. And the control part 240 (lottery part 242) starts the lottery of an item.

The game server 200 determines whether there is a message from a participating user (step S13).
That is, the control unit 240 (collection unit 243) determines which of the participating users has received the message.

When it is determined that there is no message (step S13; No), the game server 200 presents the state of the lottery process to the participating users (step S14).
That is, the control unit 240 (presentation unit 244) continues the rotation of the reel 531 and presents the state of the lottery process to the participating users. At this time, the control unit 240 gradually decreases the rotation speed of the reel 531 as time elapses.
And the game server 200 advances a process to step S18 mentioned later.

On the other hand, when it is determined that there is a message (step S13; Yes), the game server 200 presents the message to the participating users together with the state of the lottery process.
For example, as shown in FIG. 10B, the control unit 240 presents the participating users with a state in which the message MS is scrolling horizontally as the reel 531 rotates. Also at that time, the control unit 240 gradually decreases the rotation speed of the reel 531 as time elapses.

The game server 200 determines whether the message satisfies a predetermined requirement (step S16).
For example, the control unit 240 (lottery unit 242) determines whether or not a message or a combination of messages input from a participating user includes a character string set in the keyword 235c of the lottery process management information 235. .

  If the game server 200 determines that the message does not satisfy the predetermined requirement (step S16; No), the game server 200 proceeds to step S18 described later.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the message satisfies the predetermined requirement (step S16; Yes), the game server 200 changes the lottery end time (step S17).
For example, the control unit 240 adds a predetermined value (for example, 10 seconds) to the remaining time 235a of the lottery process management information 235 to extend the lottery end time. In this way, by adding a predetermined value to the remaining time 235a, the control unit 240 (presentation unit 244) increases the rotation speed of the reel 531 by a certain rate.
Instead of unconditionally extending, an upper limit may be set for the number of times of extension so as not to extend beyond the upper limit. In addition to this, if the lottery result is expected from the end time after the extension and the lottery result is higher than the standard (for example, the average rarity (rank) of the items to be drawn is higher than the standard), then , You may not extend. Further, on the precondition that all the participating users have input a message, the message (or a combination of messages) may be compared with the keyword 235c in step S16. That is, if all the participating users have not input a message, the end time of the lottery will not be extended even if a message including the keyword 235c is input.
Further, the value added to the remaining time 235a does not have to be a constant value, and may be variable according to the amount and frequency of messages input from the participating users (that is, the degree of excitement due to messages).

The game server 200 determines whether or not the lottery end time has come (step S18).
That is, the control unit 240 determines whether the value of the remaining time 235a in the lottery process management information 235 has become zero.

  When it is determined that the lottery end time has not arrived (step S18; No), the game server 200 returns the process to step S13 described above.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the lottery end time has come (step S18; Yes), the game server 200 gives the winning item to the participating user (step S19).
That is, the control unit 240 (presentation unit 244) stops the rotation of the reel 531 at the end of the lottery. Then, the control unit 240 (lottery unit 242) wins 10 items including items displayed on the selection gauge 532. As described above, when ten reels 531 are arranged, the control unit 240 wins an item displayed on each selection gauge 532.
And the control part 240 (item provision part 245) distributes and assign | provides 10 winning items one by one to each participating user. Note that the allocation method may be randomly assigned, or the items won in the lottery order may be assigned according to the ascending order (or descending order) of the user IDs of the participating users.

In such an item lottery process, each participating user can input a message in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery, and these messages are presented together with the lottery process. And according to those messages, the control part 240 changes the completion | finish time of the lottery which has started. That is, when the character string set in the keyword 235c of the lottery process management information 235 is included in the message or the combination of messages from the participating users, the control unit 240 extends the lottery end time than usual. .
Thereby, since it is possible to participate in the lottery process by inputting an appropriate message alone or in association with another user, each of the participating users will actively input the message. Then, by sharing these messages together with the lottery process, it is possible to create a sense of unity among the participating users and excite the entire participating users.

  As a result, it is possible to appropriately activate a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate.

(Other embodiments)
In the above embodiment, in the lottery process when the ten-unit gacha is executed together, the message (or a combination of messages) from the participating users includes the character string set in the keyword 235c of the lottery process management information 235. In this case, the case where the lottery end time is changed by adding a predetermined value (for example, 10 seconds) to the remaining time 235a has been described. However, the lottery end time can be changed by another method. May be.
For example, instead of the remaining time 235a, the rotation speed (circulation speed) of the reel 531 or the like is managed, and the lottery unit 242 gradually decreases the rotation speed as time elapses, and responds to a message from the participating user. If the character string set in the keyword 235c is included, the rotational speed that is gradually decreased may be gradually decreased after being increased by a certain rate.
In this case, even if the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like gradually decreases, if a message that satisfies the requirements is input, the rotation speed is increased, so a variety of messages are actively input from each of the participating users. Will come to be.
In addition to this, instead of increasing the rotational speed during the gradual decrease, the rotational speed is gradually decreased to zero (that is, after the reels 531 and the like are temporarily stopped), and then from a constant rotational speed. The rotation of the reel 531 or the like may be resumed.
Even in this case, even if the reel 531 or the like is temporarily stopped and an item that the participating user does not want is displayed on the selection gauge 532, the reel 531 or the like rotates when a message that satisfies the requirements is input. Since the message is resumed, a variety of messages are actively input from each of the participating users.

Also, in the lottery process, when the message from the participating user includes the character string set in the keyword 235c, the case where the lottery end time is changed has been described. May be changed.
For example, the lottery unit 242 may change the end time of the lottery when the amount or frequency of messages from the participating users is greater than or equal to the reference. In other words, the lottery unit 242 maintains the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like at the current speed if the amount or frequency of the message from the participating user is equal to or higher than the reference, while if it falls below the reference, the reel 531 or the like. The rotation speed may be made lower than the current speed.
In this case, while a large number of messages are input from the participating users, the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like is continued as it is, and the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like is decreased as the climax stops. Become. Thereby, the lottery can be terminated naturally.
In addition to this, only when the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like is equal to or lower than a certain speed, the lottery unit 242 determines that the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like if the amount or frequency of messages from the participating users is equal to or higher than the reference. May be increased to a constant speed.
In this case, when the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like decreases and it seems to stop, it becomes easier for a participating user to input a message, and it can rise just before the end.

In the above embodiment, a case has been described in which the game server 200 manages the lottery process in the ten consecutive gachas using the lottery process management information 235, but such a lottery process is performed on the user terminal 300 side of the participating users. May be managed.
For example, the user terminal 300 of the participating user stores information similar to the lottery process management information 235, and information such as a message input by the participating user at each user terminal 300 via the game server 200 is stored. Try to send each other. At that time, as described above, the screen generation unit 342 of the user terminal 300 rotates the reel or the like at a speed corresponding to the remaining time, and displays the message in a horizontal scrolling manner, as shown in FIG. A lottery screen 530 as shown is generated and presented to participating users.
Further, the user terminal 300 may perform such various gachas including ten consecutive gachas while communicating with the game server 200 on an application such as a browser, and is installed in the user terminal 300. Various gachas may be performed by executing the game application. In particular, when a game application is installed in the user terminal 300, the user terminal 300 may be able to perform various gachas independently. At that time, only when the ten consecutive gachas are executed together, the game server 200 may be accessed to recruit other participating users. When the user terminal 300 has a short-range wireless communication function such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), even if the ten-unit gacha is executed together, the short-range wireless communication function is not performed via the game server 200. Through this, other participating users may be recruited.
Also in these cases, items acquired jointly by a plurality of users can be appropriately distributed to each user.

In the above embodiment, as a requirement to extend the lottery end time or increase the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like, a message (or a combination of messages) input from a participating user is a character set in the keyword 235c. Although the case where a column is included has been described as an example, other requirements may be adopted. Further, when the requirement is satisfied, the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like may be adjusted so that an item of a specific rank (for example, a high-rank item such as a platinum rank) can be easily won.
For example, it may be set as a requirement that when a message entered in order by a participating user is connected, it matches a deadly spell. In other words, when the short messages input by the participating users are connected, the presentation unit 244 adjusts the rotation speed of the reels and the like when it matches a deadly spell or the like, and the lottery unit 242 makes it easy to draw a specific level item. You may let them.
In addition, when the participating user inputs the same message at the same time (within a certain time), the presentation unit 244 adjusts the rotation speed of the reel and the like, and the lottery unit 242 selects an item of a specific level. You may make it easy to draw.
Further, in these cases, when the presentation unit 244 adjusts the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like and the rotational movement becomes a certain speed or less, there is a high possibility that an item of a specific level will not be drawn by the lottery unit 242. In addition, the speed of the circular movement may be adjusted again. In other words, even if the rotation speed of the reel 531 or the like becomes slow and it is likely to stop at an item other than the specific level item, the rotation speed is adjusted again, and it can be easily stopped at the specific level item.

In the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which ten consecutive gachas are performed ten times in succession as in the case of ten consecutive gachas. You may go.
In that case, the number of users who can participate is changed as appropriate in accordance with the number of times gacha is continuously performed.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the dedicated game server 200 or the user terminal 300 is used has been described. However, an operation program that defines the operation of the game server 200 or the user terminal 300 is used as an existing personal computer, information terminal device, or the like. It is possible to make the personal computer function as the game server 200 or the user terminal 300 by applying to the above.

  In addition, such a program distribution method is arbitrary, for example, a computer-readable medium such as a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read-Only Memory), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc), an MO (Magneto Optical Disc), or a memory card. It may be stored in a recording medium and distributed, or distributed via a communication network such as the Internet.

(Summary)
A game system according to a first aspect of the present invention is a game system that provides a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate jointly, and includes a lottery unit, a collection unit, a presentation unit, and a grant unit. .

As the lottery game proceeds, the lottery unit spends a certain amount of time to draw items. The collection unit collects messages input by each of a plurality of users (messages that excite a lottery such as encouragement or petition).
In addition, the presenting unit is a lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery performed by the lottery unit (for example, any of the arranged items until the reel on which the items to be selected are arranged circulates and stops) And the like, the symbol collected by the collection unit in the lottery process is presented to a plurality of users. The granting unit grants the lottery item to any of the plurality of users after the lottery by the lottery unit ends.
And a lottery part changes the completion | finish time of the lottery started according to the message which the collection part collected in the lottery process.

Thus, in the lottery process from the start to the end of the lottery, each participating user can input a message, and these messages are presented together with the lottery process. And according to those messages, a lottery part changes the completion | finish time of the lottery which has started. For example, the lottery will extend the end of the lottery when the message from the participating user or a combination of messages includes a predetermined character string or when the amount and frequency of messages are higher than specified. Let
Thereby, since it can participate in a lottery process by inputting a message, each participating user comes to input a message positively. Then, by sharing these messages together with the lottery process, it is possible to create a sense of unity among the participating users and excite the entire participating users. And by extending the lottery end time, the lottery timing changes, and as a result, the winning item changes. For example, it is possible to make it easier to win an item of a specific rank (a high-ranking item such as a platinum rank). It becomes possible.
As a result, it is possible to appropriately activate a lottery game in which a plurality of users participate.

In the above game system, the presenting unit circulates an item group in which only one of the plurality of items to be selected is displayed from the selection area, and matches the end of the lottery by the lottery unit. The circulation movement may be stopped, and the lottery unit may win the item displayed in the selection area when the circulation movement by the presentation unit is stopped.
In other words, in the lottery process in which the reels and the like on which the items are arranged are circulated and moved, the circulation movement is stopped in accordance with the end of the lottery by the lottery unit, and the item displayed in the selection area is won when the circulation movement is stopped. .
In this case as well, messages are actively input from each of the participating users, and by sharing these messages with the manner in which the reels circulate, the participating users are brought together to create a sense of unity. It can swell as a whole.

In the above game system, the presentation unit circulates the position or orientation of the symbol indicating any item among the arranged items, and the circulation is performed in accordance with the end time of the lottery by the lottery unit. The movement may be stopped, and the lottery unit may win the item indicated by the symbol when the presentation unit stops the circular movement.
In this case as well, messages are actively input from each of the participating users, and by sharing these messages with the state where the symbols circulate, the participating users are brought together to create a sense of unity. It can swell as a whole.

Further, in the above game system, the presentation unit may gradually decrease the speed of the cyclic movement with the passage of time after starting the cyclic movement.
In this case, since the speed at which the reels and symbols circulate gradually decreases, the participating users input a message to continue the circular movement.

In the above game system, the presentation unit increases the rate of the circular movement that is gradually decreased by a certain rate when the message or the combination of messages collected by the collection unit includes a predetermined character string. It may be gradually decreased again.
In this case as well, even if the speed at which the reels and symbols circulate gradually decreases, if a message that satisfies the requirements is input, the speed of the circular movement will increase, so there will be a wide variety from each of the participating users. A message is entered.

Further, in the above game system, the presentation unit resumes the circular movement temporarily reduced and temporarily stopped from a constant speed when the message or the combination of messages collected by the collection unit includes a predetermined character string. You may do it.
In this case, even if the circular movement of the reels and symbols is temporarily stopped and an item that the participating user does not want is indicated, the circular movement is resumed when a message that satisfies the requirements is input. A variety of messages are input from each of the participating users.

Moreover, in the said game system, when a collection part connects each of the message collected in order from several users, when it corresponds with a predetermined character string, the speed of the circular movement gradually decreased is shown. It may be adjusted to make it easier for the lottery unit to lottery items of a specific level.
For example, if a short message entered by each participating user is connected, if the match matches a deadly spell, etc., the presentation unit will adjust the speed of the circular movement of the reel, etc. Let
In this case, the participating users can collaborate and become easy to acquire items of a specific level.
