<Regular Advantage Setting Processing>
Next, with reference to FIGS. 4 to 5, the processing is mainly performed by the area classification unit 100, the accessibility determination unit 101, the influence calculation unit 102, and the game information processing unit 103 of the server device 1 of the present embodiment. The countryside advantageous setting process will be described.

  In the countryside advantageous setting process of the present embodiment, the game base 400 is classified into any of a plurality of areas. Next, the accessibility 402 of the classified area is determined. Next, the degree of influence 403 on the progress of the game is calculated at the game base 400 corresponding to the determined degree of accessibility 402. Then, the calculated degree of influence 403 is reflected in the game base 400, and the game proceeds.

  Hereinafter, the flow of each process of the server device 1 will be mainly described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Here, the details of the countryside advantageous setting process of this embodiment will be described step by step.

(Step S101)
First, the area classification means 100 performs area classification processing.
Specifically, the area classification unit 100 acquires an instruction from a game manager from a management terminal (not shown) of this embodiment, and sets each data of the game base 400 of the base DB 112. At this time, the area classification unit 100 sets an access position 413, a team 414, and other parameter groups 415 for each base type 411.
Then, the area classification unit 100 refers to the area information 401 of the area setting 113 based on the set access position 413 of the game base 400, and classifies the game base 400 into any of the plurality of areas. Then, the area classification unit 100 sets the classified areas as the classification areas 412 of the game base 400.

(Step S102)
Next, the accessibility determination unit 101 performs an accessibility determination process.
In this process, the accessibility determination unit 101 determines the accessibility 402 of the area. At this time, the accessibility determination unit 101 determines the accessibility 402 for each area based on the specific condition of the area setting 113 and sets it in the area setting 113.

  Specifically, the accessibility determination unit 101 can determine the accessibility 402 using, for example, two or more elements of the specific condition. In the present embodiment, the accessibility determination unit 101 uses the number of game bases 400 in the area and a value obtained by scoring the parameter group 415 of the game base 400 (hereinafter, simply referred to as “base score”) as elements. , A value obtained by weighting these with a specific expression is calculated as the accessibility 402. This base score is, for example, scored to indicate the “scale” of the game base 400. For example, the base score varies depending on the level of the game base, "Ninja Mansion" or "Castle", etc.

In addition, the size of the area, population and population density, the number of skyscrapers, the number of train lines, the presence or absence of subways and Shinkansen, and financial information can be used as factors for determining the accessibility 402. Is. Among these, as the financial information, it is possible to use the number of restaurants in the area, the number of retail stores, the number of large-scale retail stores, the number of department stores and general supermarkets, the total retail sales floor area (m ² ), and the like. Furthermore, rankings (ranks) for differentiating from others, such as the ranking of the number of retail stores, the ranking of the number of restaurants, the ranking of the number of large retail stores, the ranking of the number of department stores and general supermarkets, the ranking of the retail sales floor area (m ² ), etc. You may use it as a specific condition. These data can be acquired from an external network.

  Further, as the specific expression for calculating the above-mentioned accessibility 402, it is possible to use a linear expression or the like in which an appropriate weight is set to the calculated value of each element in accordance with the calculation of the following degree of influence 403. Further, the weight used in this specific expression can be appropriately set and adjusted by the game manager depending on the ease of access to each game base 400 in the countryside or the city.

(Step S103)
Next, the influence degree calculation means 102 performs an influence degree calculation process.
The influence calculating means 102 calculates the influence 403 for each area corresponding to the accessibility 402 determined for each area, and sets it in the area setting 113.
For example, when the game base 400 of the “temple” is accessed, the influence degree calculating means 102 can obtain a large number of items, and the degree of rareness (rareness) of the items that can be obtained tends to increase. To calculate. Further, for example, when the game base 400 of “Ninja Mansion” and “Castle” is accessed, the influence degree calculation means 102 increases the damage in the battle, reduces the damage received, and increases the points that can be obtained when winning. Alternatively, the influence degree 403 is calculated so that the demerit at the time of defeat is reduced. Further, it is also possible to calculate the influence degree 403 such that when the game base 400 is accessed, the mononoke that is acting and the player character of the player themselves grow faster. Further, the influence degree calculating means 102 can also calculate the influence degree 403 that makes it easier to raise the level of the game base 400. In addition, the influence degree calculating means 102 can also calculate the influence degree 403 that shortens the time (recharge) until the game base 400 can be accessed again when accessing the game base 400.

(Step S104)
Next, the game information processing means 103 performs game information processing.
The game information processing means 103 reflects the calculated influence degree 403 in the game base 400. On this, the game proceeds.
The game information processing means 103 authenticates the user by referring to the account setting 300 based on the transmitted account information. This causes the user to log in.
After logging in, the game information processing unit 103 creates the game data 211 from the account setting 300 and sends it to the game device 2. At this time, the game information processing means 103 creates, for example, not all of the game data 211 but difference data not stored in the game apparatus 2 and transmits it. As a result, the game progresses with the above-described influence degree 403 applied.

  According to the screen example 500 of FIG. 5, the game base 400a is arranged in the S ward, which is an (urban) area where the accessibility 402 is high. A game base 400b and a game base 400c are arranged in the N ward, which is an area that is less urban than the S ward, in which the accessibility 402 is medium. In the present embodiment, the game base b and the game base 400c are more advantageous in the progress of the game than the game base 400a. That is, when accessing the game base 400b and the game base 400c, various parameters that are advantageous depending on the influence degree 403 are applied.

Here, in this embodiment, the accessibility 402 is determined for each area, and the influence degree 403 to be applied is different in different areas even if the bases are close. For example, although the game base 400a and the game base 400b are close in distance, an advantage or disadvantage is determined in the area. Therefore, different influence degrees 403 are applied to the game base 400a and the game base 400b. On the other hand, the same influence degree 403 is applied to the far bases in the same area. For example, the same influence degree 403 is applied to the game base 400b and the game base 400c in the same area. This makes it possible to play with an awareness of the area and improve the game.
As described above, the countryside advantage setting process according to the embodiment of the present invention is completed.

[The invention's effect]
With the above configuration, the following effects can be obtained.
Conventionally, in the position game, in the countryside away from the city, the number of game bases 400 is small, so that the game progress is more disadvantageous than the city.
On the other hand, the game program of the present embodiment is a game program executed by the server device 1 which is an information processing device that manages a plurality of game devices. An area classification unit 100 that classifies the game site 400 having the corresponding access position 413 set into any of a plurality of areas corresponding to the position information 212, and the game sites for each area classified by the area classification unit 100. In accordance with the access easiness determination unit 101 that determines the ease of access 402 indicating the ease of access to the game, and the access easiness 402 that is determined by the access ease determination unit 101, the progress of the game at the game base 400 The influence degree calculating means 102 for calculating the influence degree 403, and the influence degree 403 calculated by the influence degree calculating means 102 are reflected in the game base 400 to function as the game information processing means 103 for advancing the game. ..
With this configuration, the real world is divided into areas, the accessibility is determined for each area, and the influence degree 403 when the game progresses at the game base 400 is calculated corresponding to the determined accessibility 402. By applying it, it is possible to provide a game program that is not advantageous or disadvantageous depending on the region and that allows the game to proceed in the countryside in the same manner as in the city.
In addition, since the degree of influence 403 is applied to each area, the user comes to access the game base 400 while being aware of the area, so that it is possible to improve the competitiveness of the battle.

Further, the game program according to the embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the accessibility determination unit 101 determines the accessibility 402 based on two or more types of elements.
With this configuration, the accessibility 402 can be appropriately determined, and the influence 403 can be appropriately set. As a result, it is possible to eliminate the feeling of unfairness among the users and to appropriately progress the game.

Further, the game program according to the embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the element for determining the accessibility 402 includes the number of game bases 400 in the area.
With this configuration, when the number of game bases 400 is small, the influence degree 403 can be increased. Therefore, a disadvantage due to the small number of game bases 400 in the countryside can be suppressed, and the game can be advanced in the same manner as the city.

Further, the game program according to the embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the element for determining the accessibility 402 includes a value obtained by scoring the parameter group 415 of the game base 400 in the area.
With such a configuration, it is possible to make a difference in the degree of influence 403 between an area in which the number of game bases 400 in which the parameter group 415 such as a level is high is large and an area in which the number of points is small. As a result, it is possible to properly and appropriately progress the game in the countryside and the city. Alternatively, by increasing the significance when the level of the game base 400 is high in the countryside, an incentive to visit the game base 400 can be given.

[Other Embodiments]
The control means and the processing procedure described in FIGS. 2 to 5 are examples, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to these. The processing procedure and the like can be appropriately changed in design without changing the gist of the present invention.

Although the game program according to the above-described embodiment is described as including a plurality of types of game bases 400 having different roles regarding the game progress, the adjustment for each type is not described in detail.
However, when the number of game bases 400 is small in the countryside, in addition to the above-described influence degree 403, adjustment such as changing the ratio of the types of the game bases 400 between the countryside and the city may be performed.

Further, as a game program according to another embodiment of the present invention, the element for determining the accessibility 402 of the area may include the type itself of the game base 400. For example, when a plurality of types of game bases 400 are set, it may be advantageous if there are few specific types of game bases 400 in the area. Alternatively, depending on the type of the game base 400, the influence degree 403 may not be changed when the area density and the number of bases are equal to or more than or less than a specific threshold.
As a result, it is possible to suppress the disadvantage due to the small number of game bases 400 in the countryside. Therefore, the game can be advanced in the same manner as in the city.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which, as the accessibility 402, the degree of “urban area”, that is, the ease of access is used as a criterion.
However, it is also possible to determine how "rural (regional)" as the accessibility 402. That is, the criterion for determination may be determined based on the difficulty of access. In this case, even if the access becomes easier than the specific value, the accessibility 402 at the same stage may be calculated.

In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, although an example in which the accessibility 402 is calculated in several stages has been described, the number of stages can be increased, such as 0 (city) to 255 (country), or 0 (city). It may be calculated by a decimal value such as ~ 1 (countryside). Furthermore, each value of the degree of influence 403 may be calculated as a value such as 0 (not advantageous) to 255 (maximum advantage) or 0 (not advantageous) to 1 (maximum advantage).
With this configuration, it is possible to set the accessibility 402 and the influence degree 403 in more detail and reflect them in the game base 400 in the area. Therefore, the game can be advanced in consideration of the degree of the countryside and the city.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which the influence degree 403 calculated by the influence degree calculating unit 102 is made advantageous in a rural area (region).
However, the influence degree 403 may be disadvantageous in the urban area. This can motivate the user to go to the countryside (region) to play.
On the contrary, it is also possible to encourage disadvantages in rural areas (local areas) to access in urban areas.

Further, in another game program according to another embodiment of the present invention, the game information processing unit 103 sets the reflection degree of the influence degree 403 calculated by the influence degree calculation unit 102 to correspond to the type of the game base 400. You may change it. That is, the reflection degree of the influence degree 403 may be changed for each type of the game base 400.
With such a configuration, it is possible to set the influence degree 403 according to the type and nature of the game base 400, and it is possible to eliminate the unfair feeling of the user and the like.

In the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which areas are set in geographical units such as prefectures, municipalities, wards, and old han on the map, and the range of the area is extracted and set from data such as maps.
However, it is possible to set the area range from data other than the map. For example, the range of the area may be determined from image data of aerial photographs, satellite photographs, communication maps of base stations, traffic data, and the like.
Further, the area range may be arbitrarily adjusted by the game manager, or may be adjusted according to the result of the game or the like. Specifically, for example, it is possible to automatically set the range to be an area from the history data of the position information 212 of the plurality of game devices 2.

Further, the user can set the area arbitrarily. In addition, it is possible to set an area different from the normal area in the area setting 113 for each scenario. In this case, a user such as a team representative or a group (guild) administrator who collects a plurality of users can set the area. In addition, the position and range of the above-mentioned area may be set and moved by this user's operation. Furthermore, this user may be able to adjust the accessibility 402, the degree of influence 403, and the like.
Thereby, for example, a game manager or the like can set an area divided into school districts and the like. In this case, it is possible to prepare a scenario such as a school battle, and to execute it.
