Next, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a game system (information processing system) 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 1 includes a game server (server) 10, a user terminal 20, and an NFC-equipped device (tangible object) 30. The game server 10 and the user terminal 20 are connected by a communication network.

The communication network is, for example, the Internet, a LAN, a dedicated line, a telephone line, a corporate network, a mobile communication network, Bluetooth (registered trademark), WiFi (Wireless Fidelity), another communication line, or a combination thereof. However, it does not matter whether it is wired or wireless.

The game server 10 includes a control device 11 and an external storage device 12. The control device 11 includes a CPU, memories such as ROM and RAM, an input interface, an output interface, a communication interface, and a bus connecting these. The control device 11 realizes various functions by the CPU executing programs stored in the ROM or the like. The external storage device 12 is a hard disk drive or the like.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the game server 10. As shown in FIG. 2, the functional modules executed by the CPU of the control device 11 include a right holder determination information receiving unit 101, a device information registration unit (tangible object information registration unit) 102, and a privilege determination unit 103.

Further, the external storage device 12 is equipped with a device management information storage unit (tangible object management information storage unit) 104. The device management information storage unit 104 records the device code (unique information) of the NFC-equipped device 30, the user account of the right holder of the device, the number of times the device has been used, the date and time of the last use of the device, and the like. ing.

The user terminal 20 is a terminal for a player (user) to play a game in cooperation with the game server 10. The user terminal 20 is a terminal capable of communicating with the game server 10 via a communication network, such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet terminal, a notebook PC (personal computer), a personal digital assistant (PDA), and a wearable device.

The function module of the dedicated application executed by the processor 21 includes a device code acquisition unit 201, a right holder determination information transmission unit 202, and a usability determination unit 203.

The NFC-equipped device 30 is a character figure, medal, card or the like having a function of exchanging data with the user terminal 20 via NFC. A device code unique to the device is added to the NFC-equipped device 30. The device code includes an ID for identifying the game and an ID unique to the device. The device-specific ID is encrypted. For example, the device-specific ID may be encrypted using a specific secret key. By doing so, the uniqueness of the device-specific ID given to the NFC-equipped device 30 is ensured, and the forgery of the device code of the NFC-equipped device 30 can be prevented. In this way, by ensuring the uniqueness of the device-specific ID given to the NFC-equipped device 30, the device-specific ID of the NFC registration device 30 can be stored in the game server 10 without registering the issued device-specific ID in advance. Authentication becomes possible.
The NFC-equipped device 30 can be purchased by the player via the store or the game system 1.

Next, the flow of the game by the game system 1 will be described. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of the game by the game system 1. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which the player obtains the privilege by performing a lottery (gacha) on the game screen. The benefits are items and game points that can be used in the game, and are mainly used when the game is played so that the game can be advantageously developed. The player can perform one lottery by reading the device code of the NFC-equipped device 30 on the user terminal 20.

The player operates the user terminal 20 to activate the application of the game system 1, and holds the user terminal 20 over the NFC-equipped device 30 owned by the player, for example. The user terminal 20 acquires various information from the NFC-equipped device 30 via NFC. The user terminal 20 first determines whether or not the NFC-equipped device 30 satisfies the standards (communication standard, data format, etc.) that can be used in the game system 1. Also, the correctness/wrongness of the ID for identifying the game included in the device code is determined (step S101).

When it is determined in step S101 that the NFC-equipped device 30 satisfies the standard and the ID for identifying the game is correct (YES), the NFC-equipped device 30 is transferred from the user terminal 20 to the game server 10. The device code of and the user account of the player are transmitted (step S102). On the other hand, if it is determined in step S101 that the NFC-equipped device 30 does not meet the standard, or if the ID for identifying the game is incorrect (NO), transmission to the game server 10 is performed. Instead, the message indicating that the NFC-equipped device 30 cannot be used is output to the display device 23 of the user terminal 20, and the process ends.

The game server 10 determines the device code received from the user terminal 20 (step S103). Specifically, it is determined whether the device code is of a correct standard, the ID for identifying the game is a regular one, or the like. When it is determined that the device code is authentic (YES), the process proceeds to step S104. On the other hand, when it is determined that the device code is not authentic (NO), the process proceeds to step S105, and the user terminal 20 is notified that the NFC-equipped device 30 cannot be used because it is illegal. For example, a message such as "The code could not be read." may be displayed on the display device 23 of the user terminal 20.

The game server 10 determines whether the device code received from the user terminal 20 is registered in the device management information storage unit 104 (step S104). If the device code is not registered (NO), the game server 10 registers the device code in the device management information storage unit 104 (step S106).

Further, the game server 10 registers the received user account in the user account of the right holder of the NFC-equipped device 30 (step S107).

Next, the game server 10 performs a process of determining a privilege given to the player when the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the first time (step S108). The determination of the privilege is performed by, for example, a lottery as described later. Further, “1” is registered as the number of times of use registered in the device management information storage unit 104, and the current date and time is registered as the date and time of last use.

On the other hand, if the device code is already registered in step S104 (YES), the game server 10 matches the received user account with the user account of the registered right-of-use person of the NFC-equipped device 30. It is determined whether or not to do it (step S1009).

If it is determined in step S109 that the received user account belongs to the right-of-use person (YES), the game server 10 currently stores the date and time of the last use registered in the device management information storage unit 104. By referring to the date and time information, it is determined whether the NFC-equipped device 30 usage frequency satisfies a predetermined usage frequency (step S110). For example, if the second and subsequent uses are limited to once a day, if the date and time registered is the same as the current date, it is determined to be unusable, and it is another date. It is judged to be usable. If it is determined that the NFC-equipped device 30 is usable, the game server 10 proceeds to step S111. If it is determined that the NFC-equipped device 30 is not usable, the game server 10 is not used. It notifies that it is not possible (step S113). For example, the display device 23 of the user terminal 20 may be caused to display a message such as "I have already used it today. See you tomorrow."

In step S111, the game server 10 performs a process of determining the privilege given to the player when the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the second time and thereafter. The determination of the privilege is performed by, for example, a lottery as described later. Also, the number of times of use registered in the device management information storage unit 104 is incremented by 1. For example, when the current number of times of use is “1”, the number of times of use is updated to “2”, and the current date and time is registered as the date and time of last use.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S109 that the received user account does not belong to the right holder (NO), the user terminal 20 is notified that the user account cannot be used because the right is not the right holder of the NFC-equipped device 30. Is performed (step S112). At this time, the user terminal 20 may be notified of information (user name, etc.) of the rightful holder of the NFC-equipped device 30. For example, a message such as “This is Mr. XX's device” may be displayed on the display device 23 of the user terminal 20.

Regarding the method of determining the benefit, when determining the benefit for the first use, for example, the probability of winning the bonus (first-class benefit) in the lottery is 100%, and determining the benefit for the second and subsequent uses. In this case, the probability of winning the jackpot bonus may be 20%, and the probability of winning the regular bonus (second type bonus) may be 80%. The first-class privilege is less likely to be obtained by lottery than the second-class privilege (the first-class privilege is more valuable than the second-class privilege). Further, the value of the first-class privilege is set to be higher than that of the second-class privilege. As an example, the first type privilege is an item for obtaining a game character, and the second type privilege is a point consumed in the game. For example, an item for obtaining the game character may be hit at the first use, and points may be hit at the second time and thereafter. In addition, the privilege is not limited to two types of a bonus and a normal privilege. In addition, the jackpot bonus and the bonus equivalent to the normal bonus each include a plurality of types of bonuses.

In addition, at the time of second and subsequent use, the probability of winning the jackpot bonus may be gradually reduced according to the number of times of use. In addition, a lottery may not be performed for the privilege for the first use, and a privilege determined in advance according to the type of the NFC-equipped device 30 may be given.

When the game server 10 performs a lottery with a probability according to the number of times the NFC-equipped device 30 has been used, and determines the content of the privilege to be given to the player, the game server 10 transmits information on the privilege determined by the lottery to the user terminal 20 (step S114). ).

As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the game server 10, by managing the device code of the NFC-equipped device 30 and the user account of the license holder, the NFC-equipped device other than the license holder is managed. 30 was disabled. Furthermore, the privilege granted in the game is changed depending on whether the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the first time or the second time and thereafter. You can use to repeatedly enjoy the game.

Further, in the user terminal 20, before transmitting the device code and the user account to the game server 10, it is determined whether or not the NFC-equipped device 30 satisfies a predetermined standard. It is possible to avoid performing unnecessary determination processing for the NFC-equipped device 30 that does not satisfy the above condition.

Further, when the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the first time, the probability of winning the jackpot is set higher than when the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the second time and thereafter, so it is more valuable to purchase a new device. It is possible to provide the enjoyment of the second and subsequent uses while maintaining the advantage of receiving the privilege.

In addition, when the NFC-equipped device 30 is used for the second time or later, the privilege may be granted only when the usage frequency satisfies a predetermined condition. The frequency of use is determined based on the date and time when the NFC-equipped device 30 was last used and the current date and time (the date and time when the NFC-equipped device 30 is about to be used), and a predetermined period has elapsed since the last use date and time. The use may be permitted under the condition. For example, the condition may be that a predetermined number of days have passed from the date of last use, or the condition that a predetermined time has passed from the date and time of last use. For example, after the second time, you can use it only once a day (provided that one day has passed since the date you last used it). Once you use it, you cannot use it for 24 hours (the date and time of last use). It is also possible to set restrictions such as 24 hours or more from the above).

Further, in the present embodiment, the NFC-equipped device 30 is taken as an example, but a device having no NFC function, a printed matter, or the like may be used. For example, the device code may be attached in the form of a barcode or a two-dimensional code. In this case, the user terminal 20 may read the code information and transmit it to the game server 10.

Although the present invention is applied to the game system in the present embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it is applied to SNS (social networking service), digital content providing service, video distribution service, music distribution service, etc., and the rightful owner repeatedly obtains benefits (points, contents such as videos, music, etc.) Can be set.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be implemented in various other forms without departing from the gist of the present invention. Therefore, the above embodiments are merely examples in all respects, and should not be construed as limited. For example, the processing steps described above can be arbitrarily changed in order or executed in parallel as long as the processing contents do not conflict. Further, other steps may be added between each processing step. Further, the steps described as one step may be executed by being divided into a plurality of steps, or the steps described as a plurality of steps may be grasped as one step.
