[2. Overview of processing in information processing system]
Hereinafter, an outline of processing executed in the information processing system according to the present embodiment will be described. In the present embodiment, in the information processing system, a game object of a game character (hereinafter, simply referred to as “character”) is given to a user (in other words, a player of the game) by lottery, and the game of the given character is given. A game using the object is executed. In the present embodiment, a simulation game in which a character fights against an enemy unit as a unit (in other words, a piece) is performed. However, the type of game using the game object of the character is arbitrary, and may be a puzzle game or a role playing game. In addition, the character is, for example, a person who appears in a game, but is not limited to a person as long as it has personality in setting of the game. For example, the character may be an animal, a weapon, an item, or the like.

[2-1. Outline of the character and game to be provided]
First, a character in the information processing system will be described. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an outline of processing relating to a character to be drawn. As shown in FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, a plurality of characters (characters A to G in the example shown in FIG. 4) are to be subjected to the lottery. In the present embodiment, one character is selected in one lottery, and a game object (that is, a unit to be described later) related to the selected character is given to the user (see FIG. 4). In another embodiment, a plurality of characters may be selected in one lottery, and the game objects of the selected characters may be given to the user.

  In the present embodiment, the lottery can be performed in exchange for a lottery item (for example, a jewel) available in the game. That is, the user can own the lottery item in the game, and the user can perform the lottery by consuming a predetermined number of the lottery items. Note that the user may be able to purchase lottery items with real money. In another embodiment, the lottery may be executed without a lottery item.

  In the present embodiment, the game object given by the lottery is a unit used in the game (more specifically, data representing the unit). Therefore, hereinafter, the data of the game object given by the lottery is referred to as unit data. The unit data is a parameter related to the character and includes data indicating parameters used in the game (for example, physical strength, offensive power, defensive power, etc.). The information processing device 2 can cause the character to appear in the game by using the unit data.

  Note that the units that can be used in the game are not limited to units provided by lottery. For example, a unit other than the unit provided by the lottery (for example, a unit that can be used by the user in the initial state or a unit that is provided to the user when certain conditions are satisfied) can be used in the game. You may.

  As shown in FIG. 4, some of the plurality of characters to be drawn (characters A to D in the example shown in FIG. 4) are event characters. The event character is a character on which an event in which the event character appears (more specifically, an individual event described later) is executed under a certain condition. In the present embodiment, the number of event characters is assumed to be four, but may be one or an arbitrary number of two or more.

  The intimacy parameter is associated with the event character (see FIG. 4). As shown in FIG. 4, the intimacy level is set for each event character. The closeness is a parameter indicating the degree of closeness between the player (in other words, the main character of the game) and the event character. In the present embodiment, the intimacy level is a numerical value, and the higher the numerical value, the more intimate. Note that the parameter indicating the degree of intimacy does not have to be data representing a numerical value in a strict sense, and may be data representing a numerical value substantially. For example, the parameter indicating intimacy may be data indicating “A”, “B”, or “C” indicating the level of intimacy.

  The parameter of the familiarity is different from the parameter indicated by the unit data, and is set regardless of whether the unit is given to the user. That is, if the user does not have the unit of the event character, the parameter of the unit data is not set, but also in this case, the familiarity of the event character is set.

  Although details will be described later, in the present embodiment, the user increases the intimacy of the event character by playing the game (see FIG. 4). Then, as the familiarity of the event character increases, an event related to the event character is executed (see FIG. 4). In the present embodiment, one purpose of the user is to execute an event by playing a game.

[2-2. Increase in intimacy]
Next, a process of increasing the familiarity set for the event character will be described. In the present embodiment, the intimacy level increases according to the execution result of the game performed using the unit (see FIG. 4). That is, the user can increase intimacy by playing a game using the unit.

  In the following, a game that can increase intimacy is referred to as an “intimacy increasing game”. In the present embodiment, the game played by the game application is not limited to the intimacy increasing game, and another type of game using units may be possible.

  In the present embodiment, the familiarity is increased when the user clears the familiarity increasing game. Specifically, in the above case, the familiarity of one event character among the plurality of event characters increases within a predetermined range. In the present embodiment, the amount of increase in intimacy is determined to have randomness based on the probability within the above range. Here, "determining to have randomness" does not only mean deciding at random in a strict sense, but based on a probability, the same selection result is obtained every time for a plurality of trials. It means to decide not to be.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the familiarity is updated based on whether or not the familiarity increasing game has been cleared. Here, the execution result of the game used for updating the intimacy level is not limited to whether or not the game is cleared, and may be an arbitrary execution result (for example, a game content and / or a game evaluation result). . For example, in another embodiment, the familiarity may increase according to the number of enemy characters defeated in the familiarity increasing game, or the familiarity increases according to the time required to complete the familiarity increasing game. The density may increase.

  In addition, in addition to being updated based on the result of the intimacy increasing game, the intimacy may be updated when another condition different from a condition related to the result is satisfied. For example, in another embodiment, the intimacy may be updated in response to the user logging in to the game application, or in response to a predetermined item being used in a scene different from the intimacy increasing game. The intimacy may be updated.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the user can increase the familiarity of the event character by performing the familiarity increasing game. As will be described later in detail, when a certain condition is satisfied by increasing the intimacy by the intimacy increasing game, the user can see an event related to the event character. As described above, in the present embodiment, the information processing system can introduce characters that the user can obtain by lottery through the user playing the game.

  In the present embodiment, when the intimacy increasing game is completed, the information processing system selects one of the plurality of event characters and updates the intimacy level related to the selected event character. Specifically, an event character whose intimacy is increased (hereinafter, referred to as an “increase target character”) is selected from a plurality of event characters based on a predetermined probability. Here, as described above, in the present embodiment, when a certain condition is satisfied by increasing the intimacy by the intimacy increasing game, an event related to the event character is executed. In the present embodiment, since only one type of intimacy increases by one intimacy increasing game, it is possible to prevent a plurality of events from being simultaneously executable.

  In another embodiment, the increase target character may not be determined to have randomness, and may be determined based on a predetermined determination algorithm. For example, the increase target character may be determined based on the closeness (for example, determined to be the event character with the smallest current closeness), or may be determined based on the real time (for example, from 10:00 to 12:00). May be determined as the event character A). In another embodiment, a plurality of event characters may be selected as increase target characters by one intimacy increasing game.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the increase target character is selected so as to have randomness, but the event character whose intimacy has reached the upper limit value is not selected as the increase target character. That is, the information processing system assigns one of the plurality of predetermined game characters from the event characters other than the event character whose intimacy meets the restriction condition (specifically, the intimacy has reached the upper limit). Select and update the intimacy associated with the selected event character. According to this, it is possible to prevent the intimacy of any event character from increasing even though the intimacy increasing game is completed. Note that the upper limit value of the intimacy level may be a predetermined arbitrary value. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the upper limit value of the intimacy level is the maximum value of the intimacy level (2000 in the example shown in FIG. 5 described later) necessary for executing the reward processing described later.

  In the present embodiment, a rule for increasing the intimacy level (for example, a rule for an increase amount) changes as the real time elapses. Details of the rule for increasing the intimacy level will be described later.

[2-3. Executing Events in Response to Increased Intimacy]
In the present embodiment, when the intimacy increases and the condition is satisfied, a reward process for giving a reward in the game to the user is executed. In the present embodiment, the process of executing an event relating to an event character is performed as one of the reward processes. That is, when the intimacy increases by playing the intimacy increasing game, an event related to the event character occurs under a certain condition (see FIG. 4). In this specification, an event that is executed when the intimacy level corresponding to one event character satisfies a condition is referred to as an “individual event” in distinction from a common event described later.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a reward process executed according to an increase in intimacy. As shown in FIG. 5, in the present embodiment, a process of executing an individual event is executed as a reward process on condition that the intimacy has reached a predetermined value. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the first individual event is executed on condition that the intimacy level has reached 10. Similarly, the second individual event, the third individual event, and the fourth individual event are respectively executed on condition that the intimacy reaches 200, 500, and 1500, respectively. The reward process is executed regardless of whether the user has a unit of the event character related to the intimacy.

  In the present specification, a condition for executing an individual event, which is a condition related to intimacy, is referred to as an “event execution condition”. The event execution condition may be any condition including a condition related to intimacy. For example, in another embodiment, the event execution condition may include other conditions (for example, the player level is equal to or higher than a predetermined level, etc.) in addition to the intimacy condition.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of an event image displayed when an individual event is executed. In the present embodiment, when an individual event is executed, an event image as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the information processing device 2, for example. In the present embodiment, the individual event relating to the event character is an event in which the event character appears and has a conversation. That is, the event image includes an image 31 of the event character and an image 32 of a line spoken by the event character (see FIG. 6).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the information processing system executes a conversation event in which an event character related to intimacy that satisfies the event execution condition appears as an individual event. Thereby, the information processing system can introduce the personality of the event character and the story about the event character to the user, and can increase the user's interest in the event character.

  In another embodiment, the event (individual event or common event described later) may be a game event of any type in which an event character appears. Here, “the event character appears” means that information indicating the event character, such as the image, name, or sound of the event character, is output. For example, the event may be a video in which a moving image in which the event character appears is played, a predetermined game may be played by the user, or the user browses the CG model of the event character. It may be able to do.

  In the present embodiment, when the intimacy level satisfies the event execution condition by the intimacy level increase game, the individuality is automatically automatically set (ie, even if the user does not give an instruction to start the event) after the end of the intimacy level game. The event starts (step S18 shown in FIG. 14). However, the timing at which the individual event starts may be any timing after the closeness satisfies the event execution condition. For example, in another embodiment, after the closeness satisfies the event execution condition, the individual event may be executed in response to the user giving a predetermined instruction.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the intimacy satisfies the event execution condition, the information processing system regardless of whether the user has a unit related to the event character related to the intimacy, The individual event in which the event character appears is executed. According to this, the information processing system can also cause the user to experience an event related to a character for which the user does not have a unit. This allows the user to have interest in the event character. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, when the unit of the event character is given to the user, the motivation to play the game using the unit of the event character can be given to the user, and using the various characters, The user can play the game. Further, according to the present embodiment, by giving an interest to the event character, it is possible to give an interest to the lottery relating to the event character, and as a result, the interest of the lottery can be improved.

  In this embodiment, a plurality of individual events (first to fourth individual events in FIG. 5) are set for one event character. Then, according to the increase in the familiarity of the event character, the event execution conditions are sequentially satisfied, and the individual events are sequentially executed. As described above, the information processing system determines that the intimacy parameter that satisfies the event execution condition further satisfies the additional event execution condition (specifically, the updated intimacy after the event execution condition is satisfied is added. ), Additional individual events in which the event character appears (i.e., second to second events), regardless of whether the user has a unit related to the event character related to intimacy. 4 individual events). As described above, by making it possible to execute a plurality of individual events for one event character, it is possible to improve the pleasure of increasing the intimacy and to make the user more interested in the event character.

  In another embodiment, the number of individual events prepared for one event character is arbitrary, and may be one or two or more. Further, the number of prepared individual events may be different for each event character.

(Giving items according to increasing intimacy)
As shown in FIG. 5, in the present embodiment, when the intimacy is equal to or more than a predetermined value, a process of giving an item is performed as a reward process. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the item A is given to the user on condition that the familiarity becomes 100, and the item B is given to the user on condition that the familiarity becomes 2000. In the present specification, a condition regarding intimacy, which is a condition for giving an item, is referred to as an “item condition”. In the present embodiment, the item A and the item B are items related to the event character (for example, an item equipped with or possessed by the event character). Note that the item given when the intimacy satisfies the item condition may be different depending on the event character related to the intimacy.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the closeness satisfies the item condition, the information processing system gives the user an item related to the event character related to the closeness. According to this, in addition to executing the event in which the event character appears, by giving an item related to the event character, the user's interest in the event character can be further increased. In addition, motivation to increase intimacy (in other words, motivation to play the intimacy increasing game) can be given to the user.

  In another embodiment, the reward process executed in response to the intimacy satisfying the condition may be any process other than the process of executing the individual event and the process of giving an item. . For example, the reward process may be a process of giving the user a lottery item (for example, a jewel) used for performing the lottery of the character, or a process of giving a currency in the game to the user. Is also good.

  In the present embodiment, a reward process is set for each of the plurality of event characters according to the familiarity. In the present embodiment, the condition under which the reward processing is executed (that is, the event execution condition or the item condition) is the same for each event character. However, in other embodiments, the conditions under which the reward processing is executed may be different for each event character. Also, the condition for executing the reward processing shown in FIG. 5 is an example, and the numerical value of the familiarity satisfying the condition is arbitrary. For example, in another embodiment, the information processing system sets an event execution condition such that a certain event character is executed until the last individual event even if the intimacy level is a relatively small value (for example, 200). For another event character, an event execution condition may be set so that the last individual event is not executed unless the intimacy reaches a relatively large value (for example, 5000).

[2-4. Common event]
Next, the common event will be described. As described above, in the present embodiment, an individual event is set for each event character, and a plurality of individual events are sequentially executed according to an increase in intimacy. As described above, among the plurality of event characters, the event character to be the increase target character is determined to have randomness. Therefore, the progress of the individual event (that is, the number of executed individual events among the four individual events) differs depending on the event character. In the present embodiment, the information processing system can execute a common event according to the progress of each individual event relating to a plurality of event characters. In other words, the common event can be executed according to the execution status of each individual event relating to the plurality of event characters (specifically, whether or not the individual event is executable).

  The common event is an event in which a plurality of event characters appear, and specifically, an event in which the plurality of event characters have a conversation. In the common event, as in the individual event, an event image including an image of the event character and an image of a line spoken by the event character is displayed on the display unit 24. The individual event may introduce an individual episode of the event character, while the common event may advance the story of the entire game.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a relationship between an individual event and a common event. As shown in FIG. 7, in the present embodiment, the first individual event (that is, the first individual event) is executed for each of the four event characters A to D on the condition that the first individual event is executed. One common event is executed. The second common event is executed on condition that the second individual event (that is, the second individual event executed) is executed for each of the event characters A to D, and the event characters A to D are executed. , The third common event is executed on condition that the third individual event (that is, the third individual event executed) is executed.

  In the present embodiment, the condition for executing the common event is referred to as “common execution condition”. The common execution condition is a condition relating to the execution status of an individual event relating to a plurality of event characters, in other words, a condition relating to the intimacy of each of the plurality of event characters. The common execution condition may be any condition including a condition regarding the intimacy of each of the plurality of event characters. For example, in another embodiment, the common execution condition may include another condition (for example, the player level is equal to or higher than a predetermined level, etc.) in addition to the above-mentioned condition regarding each intimacy level.

  In the present embodiment, three common events are prepared, and the common event is executed on condition that the fourth individual event (that is, the fourth individual event executed) is executed for each event character. No event is set. In other embodiments, the number of common events is arbitrary, and a number of common events corresponding to individual events may be prepared.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the information processing system updates each intimacy level associated with each of the plurality of event characters based on the execution result of the intimacy level increasing game. Then, the information processing system, when the intimacy degree associated with each of the plurality of event characters satisfies the common execution condition, regardless of whether the user has each unit associated with the plurality of event characters, A common event in which the plurality of event characters appear is executed. As described above, according to the present embodiment, the execution of the common event can increase the user's interest in the event character. In addition, the user can be motivated to increase intimacy.

  In another embodiment, the common execution condition is not a condition for all set event characters (four event characters in this embodiment), but at least two of the set event characters. The conditions for the above event characters may be used. For example, the common execution condition may be that “the intimacy of the event character A and the intimacy of the event character B are both 100 or more”. Note that the common event executed in response to the satisfaction of the common execution condition may be an event in which an event character related to the common execution condition (that is, event characters A and B) appears.

  Further, in the present embodiment, a plurality of common events (first to third common events in FIG. 7) are set. Then, the common execution conditions are sequentially satisfied and the common events are sequentially executed according to an increase in the familiarity of each event character. As described above, the information processing system determines that the parameter of each intimacy degree that satisfies the event execution condition further satisfies the additional common event execution condition (specifically, each parent update parameter updated after the common execution condition is satisfied) If the density satisfies an additional common execution condition), the additional event characters appear regardless of whether the user has units associated with the event characters associated with the respective intimacy levels. Execute the common event (ie, the second and third common events). As described above, by making it possible to execute the common event a plurality of times, the pleasure of increasing the intimacy can be improved, and the user's interest in each event character can be further increased.

[2-5. Event Executable Period]
In the present embodiment, a period during which the above-described event (individual event and common event) can be executed (referred to as an event executable period) is set to a certain period in real time. Hereinafter, a method of setting the event executable period will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a relationship between an event executable period and a period in which a lottery can be performed. In the present embodiment, a high probability period is set among the periods in which the characters can be drawn (see FIG. 8). The high probability period is a period in which the probability of selecting an event character by lottery is set higher than a normal period (that is, a period outside the high probability period). For example, the probability of selecting an event character is set to 3% in a normal period, but is set to 10% in a high probability period. Note that the event character may not be selected in a period outside the high probability period.

  Further, the information processing system may prepare a plurality of types of lottery. For example, the information processing system prepares a first lottery and a second lottery, so that the user can select one of the first lottery and the second lottery and perform the lottery. Good. Note that the first lottery is a lottery in which the probability that an event character is selected is higher than the probability in the second lottery. At this time, the period in which the first lottery can be performed corresponds to the high probability period.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the event executable period is set to be included in the high probability period. That is, the start point of the event executable period is set after the start point t1 of the high probability period, and the end point of the event executable period is set before the end point t2 of the high probability period. In other words, the high probability period is set to include the event executable period. Note that, in other embodiments, the start time of the event executable period may coincide with the start time of the high probability period, and the end time of the event executable period may coincide with the end time of the high probability period. You may. Further, in the present embodiment, the information processing system can execute the intimacy increasing game during the event executable period. Therefore, it can be said that the event executable period is a period during which the intimacy increasing game can be executed.

  As described above, in the first period including the period in which the event can be executed (that is, the high probability period), the information processing system determines the probability that the unit related to the event character is selected by lottery outside the first period. Is set to a value different from the probability (more specifically, a value higher than the probability). According to this, when the user becomes interested in the event character due to the event, the user can easily obtain the unit of the event character by lottery. According to the present embodiment, it becomes easier for the user to acquire the unit of the character of interest, so that the convenience of the lottery can be improved.

[2-6. Details of increase rule]
In the present embodiment, the information processing system changes the increase rule regarding intimacy according to the elapse of real time. For example, the information processing system gives a user motivation to play the intimacy increasing game by setting a period in which intimacy is likely to increase. Hereinafter, details of the increase rule will be described.

(Change of increase rule according to real time)
In the present embodiment, the information processing system performs, as changes in the increase rule according to real time, a change in the amount of increase in familiarity and a change in the selection probability of being selected as an increase target character. Specifically, the information processing system sets an increase amount increase period in which the increase amount of the intimacy level is increased by a predetermined number of times compared to the normal period. That is, during the normal period, when the intimacy increasing game is completed, the intimacy increases within a predetermined range, whereas during the increase amount increasing period, the increase calculated within the predetermined range increases. Is increased by a predetermined number of times.

  Further, the information processing system sets a probability increasing period in which the selection probability of one event character (specifically, the probability of being selected as an increase target character) is set higher than the selection probability of another event character. That is, during the normal period, the selection probabilities of the event characters are set to be equal (in the present embodiment, the number of event characters is four, so that each is set to 25%). On the other hand, in the probability rising period, the selection probability of one event character is set higher (for example, 50%) than the selection probability of the other event characters. Note that the number of event characters for which the selection probability is set to be high in the probability rising period is not limited to one, and may be two or more.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of setting of the increase amount increase period and the probability increase period. In the example shown in FIG. 9, as the increase amount increase period, a period in which the increase amount is doubled (a period from time t3 to time t4) and a period in which the increase amount is 2.5 times (time t5 to time t6) Is set). Note that, as shown in FIG. 9, a normal period (a period from time t4 to time t5) in which the increase amount is one time is also set.

  In the example illustrated in FIG. 9, as the probability increasing period, a period in which the selection probability of the event character A is set to be high (a period from time t3 to time t4), and a selection probability of the event character B is set to be high. A period (a period from time t5 to time t6) is set. As shown in FIG. 9, a normal period (a period from time t4 to time t5) in which the selection probabilities of the event characters are set equally is also set. Note that the information processing system may set the probability increase period for each event character at the same frequency so that the selection probabilities for each event character are substantially equal when viewed over the entire event executable period. .

  In another embodiment, the information processing system increases the selection probability of the event character when the user has an event character as compared to when the user does not have the event character. The setting may be changed. Further, the information processing system may change the setting so that the selection probability of the event character held by the user is higher than the selection probability of the event character not held by the user. According to the above, the user's interest in the event character can be increased. The setting change may be performed independently of the probability increasing period.

  In another embodiment, the information processing system increases the selection probability of the event character when the user does not have the event character, as compared with the case where the user has the event character. The setting may be changed as follows. In addition, the information processing system may change the setting so that the selection probability of the event character not owned by the user is higher than the selection probability of the event character held by the user. According to the above, an event is easily executed for an event character not owned by the user, so that the user can be easily interested in an event character not owned by the user.

  As shown in FIG. 9, in the present embodiment, the start time of the increase amount increase period and the start time of the probability increase period coincide with each other, and the end time of the increase amount increase period and the end time of the increase probability period Is consistent with That is, in the present embodiment, the information processing system changes the change of the increase amount of the intimacy and the change of the selection probability of the increase target character at the same timing. However, in another embodiment, the change timing of the increase amount of the intimacy may be different from the change timing of the selection probability of the increase target character.

  In addition, the timing which specifies the increase rule applied to the increase of the intimacy according to the execution result of the intimacy increase game may be any timing. For example, the information processing system may calculate the increase in intimacy based on the change rule at the time when the intimacy increasing game is started, or may calculate the intimacy based on the change rule at the time of clearing the intimacy increasing game. May be calculated.

  In the present embodiment, the information processing system separately sets the increase amount increase period and the probability increase period. Here, in another embodiment, the information processing system prepares an increase rule in which a degree of increasing the amount of increase in intimacy and an event character that increases the probability of being selected as an increase target character are prepared, You may make it change such an increase rule according to progress of real time.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the information processing system changes the intimacy update method according to real time. Specifically, in a predetermined second period (for example, a period from time t3 to time t4) in real time, the information processing system performs a third period (for example, from time t4 to time t5) different from the second period. The method of updating the familiarity is changed so that the event execution condition is more easily satisfied than the period) (specifically, the increase in the familiarity is increased). As described above, by changing the update rule in accordance with the elapse of real time, it is possible to set a period in which intimacy can be easily increased. Since the user periodically starts the game application in order to confirm a period in which the intimacy is likely to increase, according to the present embodiment, the user is motivated to periodically start the game application and play the game. Can be given.

  In the present embodiment, the information processing system determines the probability that at least one event character is selected from a plurality of event characters in a predetermined fourth period in real time (for example, a period from time t3 to time t4). Is set higher than the probability in a fifth period different from the fourth period (for example, a period from time t4 to time t5). According to this, a user who wants to increase the intimacy of a specific event character starts the game application regularly, and according to the present embodiment, the game application is started periodically to start the game. Motivation to play can be provided to the user.

  In the present embodiment, the change of the increase rule according to the real time is notified to the user before the start of the intimacy increasing game. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of a pre-start image. The pre-start image is a game image displayed on the display unit 24 of the information processing device 2 before the intimacy increasing game is started. In the game application according to the present embodiment, a plurality of game modes including a mode for performing an intimacy increasing game are prepared. The pre-start image is an initial image in a mode for performing the affinity game, and is displayed in response to the start of the mode.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the pre-start image includes an increase rule notification column 42. The content of the currently set increase rule is displayed in the increase rule notification column 42. In the example shown in FIG. 10, a message notifying the change of the increase in the intimacy degree is “10 minutes more increase!” And a message of “the probability of the character A increasing more than 10 minutes!” A message notifying the change of the selection probability is displayed in the increase rule notification column 42. As described above, in the present embodiment, the content of the currently set increase rule and the application period of the increase rule (specifically, the remaining time until the application of the increase rule ends) are displayed. You. Thus, the user can know the current increase rule and also know the application period of the increase rule.

(Change of increase rule according to item)
In the present embodiment, an item can be equipped in a unit that participates in the intimacy increasing game (that is, a unit whose unit data is used in the intimacy increasing game; hereinafter, referred to as a participating unit). Here, the information processing system makes the increase rule different depending on whether or not the participating unit is equipped with a predetermined item (called a bonus item). Specifically, when the participating unit of the intimacy increasing game is equipped with a bonus item, the amount of increase in intimacy by the intimacy increasing game is greater than when the participating unit is not equipped with the bonus item. Increases by a predetermined percentage (for example, 25%). In addition, the information processing system may increase the increase amount of the intimacy degree according to the number of participating units equipped with the bonus item.

  Note that the bonus item for changing the increase rule may be determined by an arbitrary method. In the present embodiment, an item (for example, item A shown in FIG. 5) that is given to the user according to an increase in intimacy is set as a bonus item. As described above, by enabling the increase rule to be changed depending on the item provided by increasing the intimacy, the user is motivated to increase the intimacy (that is, to play the intimacy increasing game). be able to.

  Further, the information processing system may change the event character and repeatedly set the event executable period. At this time, an item given to the user in accordance with an increase in intimacy in the previous event executable period may be set as a bonus item for changing the increase rule in the current event executable period. As a result, the user can change the increase rule from the beginning of the event executable period using the bonus item. Further, according to the above, it is possible to give the user motivation to continuously play the intimacy increasing game over a plurality of event executable periods.

  In the present embodiment, the bonus item is notified to the user before the start of the intimacy increasing game. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, the pre-start image includes the bonus item column 44. The bonus item column 44 includes an image representing an item currently set as a bonus item. This allows the user to know the current bonus item.

  The pre-start image shown in FIG. 10 includes a participation unit display column 41 and an event character display column 43. The participating unit display column 41 includes an image representing the participating unit (that is, a unit used in the intimacy increasing game). As shown in FIG. 10, in the present embodiment, the number of participating units in one intimacy increasing game is specified by the user in the range of one to four. The user can change the participating unit, and an image representing each unit currently selected as the participating unit is displayed in the participating unit display column 41. In other embodiments, the number of participating units and the method of determining the number are arbitrary.

  The event character display field 43 displays an image representing a character (four characters in FIG. 10) currently set as the event character. As described above, in the present embodiment, the event character is changed as the real time elapses (see FIG. 8). Therefore, the information processing apparatus 2 notifies the user of the current event character in an easy-to-understand manner by the event character display column 43.

  The pre-start image includes the stage selection button image 45. The stage selection button image 45 is an image for giving an instruction to display a difficulty selection image described later. That is, in response to the user performing an operation of specifying the stage selection button image 45 (for example, an operation of touching), the information processing device 2 displays the difficulty level selection image on the display unit 24.

(Change of increase rule according to difficulty)
FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of the difficulty selection image. Here, in the present embodiment, a game with a plurality of difficulty levels (specifically, three types of difficulty levels of advanced, intermediate, and elementary) is prepared as the intimacy increasing game. The difficulty level selection image is a game image for selecting one of a plurality of difficulty levels and instructing to start the intimacy increasing game. The difficulty level selection image includes the participation unit display column 41 and the increase rule notification column 42.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the difficulty level selection image includes an advanced button image 47, an intermediate button image 48, and an elementary button image 49. The advanced button image 47 is a button image for giving an instruction to start a game for increasing the degree of intimacy with an advanced difficulty level. The intermediate button image 48 is a button image for giving an instruction to start a game for increasing intimacy with an intermediate difficulty level. The elementary button image 49 is a button image for giving an instruction to start a game for increasing the degree of intimacy of the elementary level. In response to an operation of designating these button images, the information processing system starts an intimacy increasing game of a difficulty level corresponding to the designated button image.

  Here, the information processing system changes the increase rule according to the difficulty level of the intimacy increasing game. Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the game with the higher degree of intimacy has been cleared, the amount of increase in intimacy is determined within a range of 24 or more, and the degree of increase in intimacy with intermediate difficulty is determined. When the game is cleared, the increase in intimacy is determined in the range of 22 or more, and when the game with the difficulty of the introductory level is cleared, the increase in intimacy is in the range of 20 or more. Is determined. In this way, each increase rule is set such that the higher the difficulty level of the cleared intimacy game, the greater the amount of increase in intimacy.

  Note that the button images 47 to 49 indicate the range of the increase amount of the familiarity when the game for increasing the familiarity of the difficulty level corresponding to the button image is cleared (see FIG. 11). Thereby, the user can know the range of the increase amount of the intimacy level by the intimacy level increase game of each difficulty level.

  In the present embodiment, the strength of the enemy character appearing in the intimacy increasing game changes according to the difficulty level. That is, as the difficulty level of the intimacy increasing game increases, a stronger enemy character appears in the intimacy increasing game. Here, in the present embodiment, the information processing system determines the strength of the enemy character based on the level of the user (specifically, the level of the participating unit) in addition to the difficulty level selected by the user. I do. For example, in an intimacy game in which the difficulty level is elementary, an enemy character whose level is lower than the level of the participating unit appears. Appears, and in an intimacy increasing game with a high degree of difficulty, an enemy character at a level higher than the level of the participating unit appears. In this way, the difficulty of the actual game (here, the strength of the enemy character) is determined in consideration of the level of the user, so that the user of any level plays the game according to the difficulty. be able to. For example, for a user who has just started the game, the difficulty level may be difficult even for an elementary game, and for a user who has played the game, the difficulty level may be too easy for an advanced game. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, such a possibility can be reduced.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the information processing system executes the intimacy increasing game having the difficulty level selected from the plurality of difficulty levels, and executes the executed intimacy increasing game, Update the intimacy level based on the difficulty level. According to this, the user can play the game with the difficulty level that suits him, and therefore, it becomes easier to play the game for increasing intimacy.

  In other embodiments, the information processing system may include, in addition to (or instead of) the information (real time, items, and difficulty) described above, an increase rule (in other words, intimacy) based on other information. May be changed. For example, in another embodiment, the information processing system may update the intimacy in a different manner depending on whether or not the unit data related to the event character has been used in the executed intimacy increasing game. Specifically, the information processing system increases the intimacy degree when the unit data related to the event character is used in the intimacy increasing game compared to when the unit data is not used. Good. According to this, the user can easily increase the intimacy by acquiring the unit related to the event character, so that the user can be motivated to acquire the event character, and the user's interest in the event character can be raised. Can be stronger.

[3. Specific example of processing in information processing system]
Next, a specific example of information processing in the information processing system will be described with reference to FIGS.

[3-1. Data used for information processing]
FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of various data used for information processing in the information processing system. Each data shown in FIG. 12 is stored in the storage unit 12 of the server 1, for example.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the server 1 stores user data relating to a user of the game application. The user data is generated and stored for each user of the game application. The user data is data indicating a game situation of the user. In the present embodiment, the user data includes possessed unit data, possessed item data, closeness data, and executable event data.

  The holding unit data indicates a unit held by the user. For example, the possessed unit data indicates the identifier of each unit possessed by the user. The possessed item data indicates items possessed by the user. For example, the possessed item data indicates an identifier of each item possessed by the user. The familiarity data indicates the familiarity set for each event character (four event characters in the present embodiment). The executable event data indicates whether the user can execute the individual event and the common event related to each of the event characters (that is, whether the event execution condition or the common execution condition is satisfied). In the present embodiment, when a certain event executable period ends and a new event executable period starts, the event character is changed. Therefore, the familiarity data and the executable event data included in each user data are changed. Data contents are reset. However, in another embodiment, when a new event executable period is started, the contents of intimacy data and executable event data included in each user data may be saved without being reset. At this time, intimacy data and executable event data corresponding to the new event executable period may be additionally stored in the storage unit 12.

  Although not shown in FIG. 12, the server 1 stores unit data of each unit appearing in the game and item data of each item (that is, data indicating an item parameter).

As shown in FIG. 12, the server 1 stores high probability period setting data and increase rule setting data. The high-probability-period setting data indicates the settings related to the high-probability period, in other words, the settings related to the probability of selecting the event character in the lottery. In the present embodiment, the high-probability-period setting data indicates whether or not the above-described high-probability period has been set, and, if the high-probability period has been set, the event character corresponding to the high-probability period. Including data. Further, the increase rule setting data indicates the current setting contents regarding the intimacy increase rule. In the present embodiment, the increase rule setting data includes the following data.
-Data indicating whether the increase amount increase period is set, and if the increase amount increase period is set, data indicating the degree of increase in the increase amount (specifically, a multiple). Whether or not it is set, and if a probability rise period is set, data indicating an event character that raises the selection probability, data indicating a bonus item

  In the present embodiment, when the data illustrated in FIG. 12 is used by the information processing device 2, the information processing device 2 acquires the data from the server 1 at an appropriate timing and uses the data. For example, when using unit data in a game, the information processing device 2 may acquire the unit data from the server 1 before starting the game. However, in another embodiment, some or all of the data illustrated in FIG. 12 may be stored in the information processing device 2. At this time, by performing communication at an appropriate timing between the server 1 and the information processing apparatus 2, the data stored in the server 1 and the data stored in the information processing apparatus 2 are synchronized ( In other words, control is performed so that the contents of the data match). In another embodiment, the data stored in the information processing device 2 may not be stored in the server 1.

[3-2. Processing on the information processing device side]
(Lottery mode processing)
FIG. 13 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of a lottery mode process executed by the information processing device. Note that the lottery mode process shown in FIG. 13 is started in response to an instruction from the user to start a lottery mode, which is a mode for performing a lottery, after the game program stored in the storage unit 22 is started.

  Note that, in the present embodiment, the CPU (in other words, the processor) of the processing unit 11 or 21 of the server 1 or the information processing device 2 executes the game program stored in the storage unit 12 or 22 to execute the processing in FIG. The description will be made on the assumption that the processing of each step shown in FIG. However, in another embodiment, a part of the processing of each step described above may be executed by a processor (for example, a dedicated circuit or the like) different from the CPU. When the information processing device 2 can communicate with the server 1, a part of the processing of each step illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14 may be executed in the server 1. In addition, a part of the process of each step illustrated in FIG. 15 may be executed in the information processing device 2. Further, the processing of each step shown in FIGS. 13 to 15 is merely an example, and if a similar result is obtained, the processing order of each step may be changed, and in addition to the processing of each step, Another process may be performed (or instead).

  Further, the processing unit 21 of the information processing device 2 executes the processing of each step illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14 using the memory (or the storage unit 22). That is, the CPU of the processing unit 21 stores the data obtained in each processing step in the memory, and when the data is used in the subsequent processing steps, reads out the data from the memory and uses it. Similarly, the processing unit 11 of the server 1 executes the processing of each step illustrated in FIG. 15 using the memory (or the storage unit 12). That is, the CPU of the processing unit 11 stores the data obtained in each processing step in the memory, and when the data is used in the subsequent processing steps, reads out the data from the memory and uses it.

  In the lottery mode process shown in FIG. 13, first, in step S1, the processing unit 21 acquires the above-described high probability period setting data. Specifically, the processing unit 21 transmits acquisition request data indicating a request for acquiring the high probability period setting data to the server 1 using the communication unit 25 (in other words, via the communication unit 25). The server 1 transmits the high probability period setting data stored in the server 1 to the information processing device 2 in response to receiving the acquisition request data (Step S32 described later). The processing unit 21 receives the high probability period setting data using the communication unit 25 and stores the data in the memory. After step S1, the process of step S2 is executed.

  In step S2, the processing unit 21 displays a lottery image for accepting a lottery instruction on the display unit 24. The specific content of the lottery image is arbitrary. For example, when a plurality of types of lottery are prepared as described above, an image indicating the plurality of types of lottery may be displayed on the display unit 24 as a lottery image. Subsequent to step S2, the process of step S3 is performed.

  In step S3, the processing unit 21 issues a lottery request to the server 1 according to the user's instruction. Specifically, the processing unit 21 transmits lottery request data indicating a lottery request to the server 1 using the communication unit 25 in response to the user giving a lottery instruction. The server 1 performs a lottery process in response to receiving the above-mentioned lottery request data, and gives the user the unit of the character selected by the lottery (step S34 described later). This means that the user has acquired the unit of the character selected by the lottery. Subsequent to step S3, the process of step S4 is performed.

  In step S4, the processing unit 21 notifies the user of the lottery result. Here, when a unit is provided to the user by lottery, the server 1 transmits lottery result data indicating a lottery result (that is, a given unit) to the information processing device 2. Therefore, the processing unit 21 receives the lottery result using the communication unit 25, and displays an image indicating the lottery result on the display unit 24. After step S4, the process of step S2 is executed again.

  Although not shown in FIG. 13, during the lottery mode processing, the processing unit 21 ends the lottery mode processing in response to a user's instruction to end the lottery mode. The processing unit 21 repeatedly executes the series of processes in steps S2 to S4 until the instruction is issued.

(Game mode processing)
FIG. 14 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of a game mode process executed by the information processing device. Note that the game mode process shown in FIG. 14 is started in response to a start of the game program stored in the storage unit 22 and an instruction to start a game mode for performing the intimacy increasing game by a user. .

  In the game mode process shown in FIG. 14, first, in step S11, the processing unit 21 acquires the above-described increase rule setting data. Specifically, the processing unit 21 transmits acquisition request data indicating a request to acquire the increase rule setting data to the server 1 using the communication unit 25. In response to receiving the acquisition request data, the server 1 transmits the increase rule setting data stored in the server 1 to the information processing device 2 (Step S32 described later). The processing unit 21 receives the increase rule setting data using the communication unit 25 and stores the data in the memory. After step S11, the process of step S12 is performed.

  In step S12, the processing unit 21 displays the above-described pre-start image (see FIG. 10) on the display unit 24. That is, the processing unit 21 generates a pre-start image based on the increase rule setting data acquired in step S11. Specifically, the contents of the increase rule notification column 42 and the bonus item column 44 included in the pre-start image are determined based on the increase rule setting data. Note that, in a state where the pre-start image is displayed, the processing unit 21 may change the participation unit and / or an item equipped with the participation unit according to a user's instruction. The processing unit 21 executes the process of step S13 in response to an instruction to display the difficulty level selection image performed by an operation of specifying the stage selection button image 45 included in the pre-start image.

  In step S13, the processing unit 21 displays the above-described difficulty selection image (see FIG. 11). That is, the processing unit 21 generates a difficulty level selection image based on the increase rule setting data acquired in step S11. The processing unit 21 executes the process of step S14 in response to an instruction to start the intimacy increasing game performed by an operation of designating any one of the button images 47 to 49 included in the difficulty level selection image. I do.

  In step S14, the processing unit 21 selects the increase target character described above. That is, the processing unit 21 selects an increase target character from each event character in accordance with the method described in the above-mentioned “[2-2. Increase of intimacy]” and “[2-6. Details of increase rule]”. I do. Subsequent to step S14, the process of step S15 is performed.

  In step S15, the processing unit 21 executes the game processing of the intimacy increasing game described above. At this time, the processing unit 21 executes the game process using the unit data of the participating units. When the intimacy increasing game ends, the processing unit 21 executes the process of step S16.

  In step S16, the processing unit 21 updates the familiarity of the increase target character. Specifically, the processing unit 21 calculates the increase amount of the familiarity according to the method described in “[2-2. Increase of familiarity]” and “[2-6. Details of increase rule]”. . That is, the amount of increase in intimacy is a value obtained by increasing a value determined to have randomness in accordance with the completion of the intimacy increase game in consideration of the increase rule. The processing unit 21 calculates the updated intimacy based on the calculated increase amount. Further, the processing unit 21 stores the data indicating the updated intimacy in the memory and transmits the data to the server 1 using the communication unit 25. The server 1 that has received the data indicating the increase amount updates the familiarity data so as to increase the familiarity based on the data (step S36 described later). If the game for increasing intimacy has not been cleared, the processing unit 21 does not update the intimacy level in the process of step S16. Subsequent to step S16, the process of step S17 is performed.

  In step S17, the processing unit 21 determines whether the intimacy satisfies the event execution condition. If the determination result of step S17 is affirmative, the process of step S18 is executed. On the other hand, when the result of the determination at the step S17 is negative, the processing at the step S18 is skipped and the processing at the step S19 is executed.

  In step S18, the processing unit 21 executes the individual event satisfying the event execution condition. Here, in the present embodiment, data (for example, image data of an event character or the like) for executing an event (individual event or common event) is stored in the information processing device 2 in advance. , The event can be executed by obtaining permission from the server 1. Specifically, the processing unit 21 transmits, using the communication unit 25, event request data for requesting permission to execute an event whose event execution condition is satisfied, to the server 1. In response to receiving the event request data, the server 1 transmits event permission data indicating that the execution of the individual event related to the event request data is permitted to the information processing device 2 (step S38 described later). For example, the event permission data may include key data for releasing restrictions on event execution. The processing unit 21 receives the event permission data using the communication unit 25, and executes the individual event on condition that the event permission data is received. Subsequent to step S18, the process of step S19 is performed.

  In step S19, the processing unit 21 determines whether the intimacy satisfies the item condition. When the result of the determination at the step S19 is positive, the processing at the step S20 is executed. On the other hand, if the determination result in step S19 is negative, the process in step S20 is skipped and the process in step S21 is performed.

  In step S20, the processing unit 21 gives the item to the user. Specifically, the processing unit 21 transmits item request data indicating a request to acquire an item satisfying the item condition to the server 1 using the communication unit 25. In response to receiving the above item request data, the server 1 gives an item related to the item request data to the user (step S40 described later). This means that the user has acquired an item satisfying the item condition. Subsequent to step S20, the process of step S21 is performed.

  In step S21, the processing unit 21 determines whether the common execution condition is satisfied according to the method described in “[2-4. Common Event]”. When the determination result of step S21 is affirmative, the process of step S22 is executed. On the other hand, if the result of the determination in step S21 is negative, the processing in step S22 is skipped and the processing in step S11 is executed again.

  In step S22, the processing unit 21 executes a common event satisfying the common execution condition. The specific processing in step S22 is the same as the processing in step S18. That is, the processing unit 21 transmits, to the server 1 using the communication unit 25, event request data that requests execution permission of the common event satisfying the common execution condition. Then, the processing unit 21 receives the event permission data transmitted from the server 1 using the communication unit 25, and executes a common event on condition that the event permission data is received. After step S22, the process of step S11 is executed again.

  In the present embodiment, data for executing an event (for example, image data of an event character) is stored in the information processing apparatus 2 in advance, but in other embodiments, the processing unit 21 may obtain the data from the server 1 in the processing of step S18 or S22. Further, in another embodiment, the information processing apparatus 2 may be capable of executing an event without restriction by the server 1.

  Further, as described above, in the present embodiment, when the event execution condition (or the common execution condition) is satisfied by the intimacy increasing game, the event is executed subsequent to the intimacy increasing game. Here, in another embodiment, the processing unit 21 may execute the event at an arbitrary timing after the event execution condition or the common execution condition is satisfied. For example, in another embodiment, the information processing system may prepare an event recall mode in which an executable event can be executed again in response to a user instruction.

  Although not shown in FIG. 14, during the game mode process, the processing unit 21 ends the game mode process in response to a user's instruction to end the game mode. For example, the processing unit 21 may receive an end instruction while the pre-start image or the difficulty selection image is being displayed on the display unit 24. The processing unit 21 repeatedly executes the series of processes in steps S11 to S22 until the end instruction is issued.

  In step S33, the processing unit 11 determines whether or not the lottery request data described above has been received from the information processing device 2 via the communication unit 13. When the determination result of step S33 is affirmative, the process of step S34 is executed. On the other hand, if the decision result in the step S33 is negative, the process in the step S35 is executed.

  In step S34, the processing unit 11 gives units to the user by lottery. Specifically, first, the processing unit 11 selects one character from a plurality of characters to be subjected to the lottery by performing a lottery of the characters. The lottery may be performed by any method for selecting one character from a plurality of characters. In the present embodiment, the processing unit 11 selects one character based on the probability so as to have randomness. As described above, in the high probability period, the event character is selected with a higher probability than in the normal period. Next, the processing unit 11 gives the unit of the selected character to the user. Specifically, the processing unit 11 updates the held unit data stored in the storage unit 12 to the content including the identifier indicating the unit of the selected character. As a result, the user owns the unit (in other words, the unit data). The processing unit 11 transmits the lottery result data to the information processing device 2 using the communication unit 13. This lottery result data may include a unit of the character given to the user. Subsequent to step S34, the process of step S35 is performed.

  In step S35, the processing unit 11 determines whether or not data used in the game (for example, data indicating intimacy transmitted in step S16) is received from the information processing device 2 via the communication unit 13. judge. When the result of the determination at the step S35 is positive, the processing at the step S36 is executed. On the other hand, when the result of the determination at the step S35 is negative, the processing at the step S37 is executed.

  In step S36, the processing unit 11 updates the data stored in the storage unit 12 based on the data received in the processing in step S35. For example, when data indicating intimacy is received, the processing unit 11 updates the intimacy data stored in the storage unit 12 so that the content matches the received data. Subsequent to step S36, the process of step S37 is performed.

  In step S37, the processing unit 11 determines whether the above-described event request data has been received from the information processing device 2 via the communication unit 13. When the result of the determination at the step S37 is affirmative, the process at the step S38 is executed. On the other hand, when the result of the determination at the step S37 is negative, the process at the step S39 is executed.

  In step S38, the processing unit 11 transmits the above-described event permission data to the information processing device 2. That is, the processing unit 11 transmits the event permission data related to the event indicated by the event request data received in the process of step S37 to the information processing device 2 using the communication unit 13. The processing unit 11 may refer to the intimacy data stored in the storage unit 12 to check whether the event execution condition or the common execution condition regarding the event indicated by the event request data is satisfied. Good. At this time, when it is confirmed that the event execution condition or the common execution condition is satisfied, the processing unit 11 may transmit the event permission data to the information processing device 2. Subsequent to step S38, the process of step S39 is performed.

  In step S39, the processing unit 11 determines whether or not the above-described item request data has been received from the information processing device 2 via the communication unit 13. When the result of the determination at the step S39 is affirmative, the process at the step S40 is executed. On the other hand, if the decision result in the step S39 is negative, the process in the step S31 is executed again.

  In step S40, the processing unit 11 gives an item related to the item request data to the user. That is, the processing unit 11 updates the possessed item data stored in the storage unit 12 to the content including the identifier indicating the item related to the item request data. As a result, the user owns the item (in other words, the item data). Further, the processing unit 11 may transmit the item data of the item to the information processing device 2 using the communication unit 13. After step S40, the process of step S31 is executed again.

[4. Effects and Modifications of the Embodiment]
According to the embodiment described above, the information processing system has the following configuration.
-Game object providing means for providing a user with a game object (specifically, a unit) related to a predetermined game character (specifically, an event character) when the adding condition is satisfied (step S34).
A game (specifically, an intimacy increasing game) using a game object held by the user among predetermined game characters and / or game objects related to a game character different from the predetermined game character. Game executing means to be executed (step S15)
Update a parameter related to the predetermined game character (specifically, a parameter of closeness) based on a game execution result, regardless of whether the user has a game object related to the predetermined game character. Parameter updating means (step S16 or S36)
When the parameter satisfies the event execution condition, the character event in which the predetermined game character appears (regardless of whether the user has a game object related to the predetermined game character related to the parameter or not) (specifically, Is a character event executing means for executing an individual event (step S18).
Note that each of the above units may be provided in the server 1, may be provided in the information processing device, or may be realized by cooperation between the server 1 and the information processing device 2.

  According to the above, even if the user does not have a game object related to the predetermined game character, the parameter related to the predetermined game character is updated according to the execution result of the game, and as a result, An event in which the character appears is executed. According to this, the information processing system can introduce the user to the game character having no game object by using the event, so that the user can be interested in the game character having no game object. Can be. As a result, when the user holds the predetermined game character, the user can be motivated to play the game using the game object related to the game character. Thus, the motivation to play the game using various game objects can be given to the user, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  The “game object related to the game character” is a unit (that is, a piece used in the game) representing the game character in the embodiment. Here, the “game object related to the game character” is not limited to the one indicating the game character itself, and may be, for example, a weapon or an item equipped with the game character, or operated by the game character. It may be a vehicle.

  In the above embodiment, the “grant condition” is “a game object related to a predetermined game character is selected from a plurality of game characters by a lottery performed in response to an instruction from a user”. there were. This lottery can be said to select a game object, or can be said to select a predetermined game character related to a given game object. That is, when a predetermined game character is selected by lottery and a game object related to the selected game character is given to the user, it can be said that "the game object is selected by lottery".

  Here, in another embodiment, the information processing system may provide the game object by another method instead of providing the game object related to the game character by lottery. That is, the grant condition is not limited to the condition relating to the lottery, but may be any condition. For example, in another embodiment, the assigning means may assign a game object related to the character designated by the user to the user. That is, the grant condition may be that "the game character related to the game object is designated (in other words, selected) by the user". Further, for example, the grant condition may be a condition relating to a game. Specifically, the grant condition may be that a predetermined stage has been cleared or that a predetermined item has been acquired.

  The above-mentioned "giving a game object to a user" means that the user can use the game object (more specifically, game object data) in a game. Therefore, “giving a game object to a user” may mean, for example, transmitting a game object (more specifically, game object data) from the server 1 to the information processing device 2 of the user. Alternatively, the use restriction of the game object stored in the information processing device 2 may be released.

  The phrase “the user owns the game object” means that the user can use the game object (more specifically, the data of the game object) in the game. Therefore, the game object held by the user may be stored in advance in the information processing device used by the user, may be transmitted from the server to the information processing device at the time of use, or the process of using the game object may be performed. When executed on a server, it may be stored only on the server. In other words, “the user owns the game object” means that the game object is associated with the user (more specifically, the game object is stored in association with the user). Can be.

  The “game object” in the “game using the game object held by the user” is not limited to the game object related to the predetermined game character, and may be a game object related to another game character.

  The “parameter” is a parameter indicating intimacy in the embodiment. Here, the parameter may be any parameter related to the game character. For example, the parameter may be a parameter indicating the degree of rigor between the user (in other words, the main character of the game) and the game character. At this time, the updating means may decrease the numerical value indicated by the parameter of the sever degree according to the execution result of the game.

  The parameters are set regardless of whether or not the user has a game object related to the game character. However, the same information as the information indicated by the game object (for example, the ability of the game character Value).

  In another embodiment, when the user has a game object related to the event character, the information processing system may update the game object based on the execution result of the intimacy increasing game. Good. For example, in the above case, in the process of step S16, the parameters (for example, physical strength, offensive power, defensive power, and the like) indicated by the unit data may be increased based on the result of executing the intimacy increasing game. According to this, the user who has acquired the event character can update two parameters related to the event character (that is, the parameter indicated by the unit data and the parameter indicated by the unit data) by playing the intimacy increasing game. Therefore, the user can be motivated to play the intimacy increasing game.

  The above embodiments can be used as, for example, a game system, a game device, a game program, or the like for the purpose of improving the interest of the game.
