Description

The present invention relates to game systems, game control devices, game terminals and programs.

In a battle game executed on a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone (including a smartphone) or a tablet computer, the user is not a real-time battle (synchronous battle) in which the user competes with another user in real time via communication. In general, an asynchronous battle is performed against a computer that uses a game object (game character, etc.) owned by the user.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2013-20152

In asynchronous battles, the other users themselves do not actually participate in the battle, only the game objects of other users are used by the computer, so it feels like they are actually playing against other users. In some cases, it was not enough. In this regard, according to the real-time battle, it is possible to actually play against other users, but when the real-time battle is realized in the battle game executed on the mobile terminal, for example, the following problems occur. is there.

First, in the case of a battle game executed on a mobile terminal, it is difficult to stably realize a real-time battle because the communication environment differs for each user (mobile terminal). That is, for example, the communication speed may differ depending on the type of communication line used by the user, the communication speed may decrease depending on the location of the user, or communication may become unstable, especially when the user is moving. Therefore, it is difficult to realize a stable real-time battle.

Also, in the case of a competitive game executed on a mobile terminal, many users play in a short amount of free time (for example, travel time by transportation, break time, etc.), so when the free time ends (for example, when arriving at the destination). Users tend to quit gameplay, even during a match (for example, when a break is over). For this reason, if one user stops playing the game in the middle of the real-time battle, the real-time battle may not be completed normally until the end.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to allow the player to feel as if he / she is actually playing against another user as in a pseudo real-time game even in an asynchronous game. The purpose is to provide a game control device, a game system, a game terminal, and a program capable of the game.

A second battle execution means for executing a second battle between another user selected by the opponent selection means and the second computer based on the second game object and the first game object, and the first A battle result determining means for determining a battle result between the user and the other user based on the result of the battle and the result of the second battle is included.

The game control device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a first game object associated with the user's identification information and a second game object associated with the identification information of another user selected as an opponent of the user. The means for acquiring the result of the first battle between the user and the first computer, which was executed based on the above, and the other user, which was executed based on the second game object and the first game object. The result of the battle between the user and the other user is determined based on the means for acquiring the result of the second battle with the second computer, the result of the first battle, and the result of the second battle. Includes means for determining match results.

The game terminal according to one aspect of the present invention has a first game object associated with the user's identification information and a second game object associated with the identification information of another user selected as an opponent of the user. Based on the game object acquisition means to be acquired, the first game object and the second game object, the battle execution means for executing the first battle between the user and the first computer, and the result of the first battle are obtained. The result of the second match between the other user and the second computer, which is executed based on the first match result transmitting means to be transmitted to the game server, the second game object, and the first game object, and the above. A battle result receiving means for receiving a battle result between the user and the other user, which is determined by the game server based on the result of the first battle, and the battle result receiving means received by the battle result receiving means.

[2. Outline of the game] In the game system 1, a technique for realizing a game in which the player can feel as if he / she is actually playing a game with another user like a real-time game will be described even in an asynchronous game. Although various games can be executed in the game system 1, the above technique will be described here by taking a soccer game as an example.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a main image of a soccer game. The main image G100 shown in FIG. 2 is displayed when a game program is executed on the game terminal 30 and data is exchanged between the game terminal 30 and the game server 10. The same applies to other images described later.

The main image G100 includes elements P101 to P104. Here, the "element" is an element constituting an image, for example, a text, an image, or the like. An element may have a process associated with it, and when such an element is selected by the user (for example, when a tap operation is performed on such an element), the process associated with that element Will be executed.

Element P101 indicates user identification information (name, ID, etc.). Element P102 indicates the user's league rank and league points.

In this soccer game, multiple levels of leagues are prepared, and users are assigned to any level of league based on the competition results. The better the user's match record, the higher the league assigned to the user. The “league rank” of the element P102 indicates the rank (hierarchy) of the league to which the user currently belongs. Here, it is assumed that leagues of ranks 1 to 6 are prepared. The smaller the number, the higher the hierarchy. That is, the league of rank 1 is the highest level league, and the league of rank 6 is the lowest level league.

As will be described later, the user can play against other users belonging to the league of the same rank. When a user plays against another user, league points are given to the user according to the result of the match. The “league point” of the element P102 indicates the amount of league points that the user has acquired so far. All users belonging to the league are ranked according to the league points earned by each user within a predetermined period (hereinafter referred to as "league match period"). Users whose ranking at the end of the league match period is equal to or higher than the promotion standard ranking (rank that serves as the promotion standard) are moved to the league one level higher. On the other hand, users whose ranking at the end of the league match period is equal to or lower than the demotion standard ranking (rank that serves as the demotion standard) are moved to the league one level lower. Users aim to move to higher leagues by earning more league points during the league match. The league match period is set repeatedly, and the league points are initialized to zero each time the league match period starts.

The element P103 is for viewing the history of the battle related to the user (the battle that the user is currently playing or the battle that the user has played in the past). When the user selects the element P103, a battle history image showing the battle history related to the user is displayed. The battle history image will be described later (see FIG. 8).

Element P104 is for requesting a match against another user. When the element P104 is selected by the user, a battle request with another user is transmitted from the game terminal 30 to the game server 10, and the battle is executed.

This soccer game has a training part that allows the user to train his or her own original player character, in addition to the battle part that allows the user to play against other users. For example, in the training part, a scenario in which the main character, who is a soccer player, aims to become a professional soccer player progresses. Various ability parameters of the main character change based on the game play of the user, and the main character is registered as the original player character after the scenario ends. Users can organize their own original soccer team by using the original player characters trained in the training part. In addition, the user can use his / her own soccer team formed in this way to play against a soccer team formed by another user. The training part is not essential, and a soccer team prepared by the game developer (for example, a team imitating an actual soccer team) may be used in the match.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a flow when a match is executed. Here, it is assumed that the user U1 requests a match.

As shown in FIG. 3, first, the combination of users to play against is determined (S1). When the user U1 requests a match, in principle, one of the other users who also request the match and who belongs to the league of the same rank as the user U1 is determined as the opponent.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a waiting image displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1 until the opponent is determined. The waiting image G110 shown in FIG. 4 includes elements P111 to P118. Element P111 indicates the name and league rank of user U1.

Element P112 indicates the total ability value of the soccer team of user U1. The total ability value indicates the total ability (strength) of the soccer team. The total ability value is calculated based on the ability parameters of the members of the soccer team. The higher the ability of the members of the soccer team, the larger the total ability value of the soccer team.

Element P113 indicates the overall ability rank of the soccer team of user U1. The total ability rank also indicates the total ability (strength) of the soccer team. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the total ability rank is indicated by alphabets (for example, S, A, B, C, D, E, F, G). "S" indicates that the total ability is very high, and "G" indicates that the total ability is very low. Any one of "S" to "G" is set as the total ability rank according to the total ability value. The higher the total ability score, the higher the total ability rank.

Element P114 indicates the offensive ability of the soccer team of user U1. The offense ability of a soccer team is calculated based on the offense ability parameters (pass ability, dribble ability, shooting ability parameter, etc.) of a player character who is a member of the soccer team. Further, the element P115 indicates the defense ability of the soccer team of the user U1. The defense ability of the soccer team is calculated based on the defense ability parameters (press ability, tackle ability parameters, etc.) of the player characters who are members of the soccer team. In addition, element P116 indicates the speed ability of the soccer team of user U1. The speed ability of the soccer team is calculated based on the speed ability parameter of the player character who is a member of the soccer team.

In the example shown in FIG. 4, gauges are displayed as elements P114, P115, and P116, and the length of the gauge (the length of the shaded portion) indicates the high offense ability, defense ability, and speed ability.

Element P117 indicates that it is in the process of searching for an opponent. Element P118 is for canceling the battle. When the element P118 is selected by the user, the match is stopped and the main image G100 is displayed on the display unit 35.

FIG. 5 shows an example of an opponent image displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1 when the opponent is determined. Here, it is assumed that the user U2 is determined as an opponent. The opponent image G120 shown in FIG. 5 includes elements P121-1 to P126-1, P121-2 to P126-2, and P127. Since the elements P121-1 to P126-1 are the same as the elements P111 to P116 of FIG. 4, description thereof will be omitted here.

Element P121-2 indicates the name and league rank of the opponent (user U2). Element P122-2 indicates the total ability value of the opponent's soccer team. Element P123-2 indicates the overall ability rank of the opponent's soccer team. Element P124-2 indicates the offensive ability of the opponent's soccer team. Element P125-2 indicates the defense ability of the opponent's soccer team. Element P126-2 indicates the speed ability of the opponent's soccer team. Element P127 is for starting a match. When element P127 is selected by the user, the match begins.

In this soccer game, when users U1 and U2 are determined as a combination of users to play against, a match between the soccer team of user U1 operated by user U1 and the soccer team of user U2 operated by the CPU ( Hereinafter referred to as "first match") is executed (S2). Further, a match (hereinafter referred to as "second match") between the soccer team of the user U2 operated by the user U2 and the soccer team of the user U1 operated by the CPU is also executed (S3).

The first game is executed by the game terminal 30 of the user U1. For example, the first game is started after the formation and tactics of the soccer team of the user U1 are set by the user U1. The first match is directed by the user U1 as a match at the home base (hereinafter referred to as a "home match"). On the other hand, the first match is a match other than the home base for the user U2 (hereinafter referred to as an "away match").

On the other hand, the second game is executed by the game terminal 30 of the user U2. For example, the second game is started after the formation and tactics of the soccer team of the user U2 are set by the user U2. The second game is directed as a home game for the user U2. On the other hand, the second game is an away game for the user U1.

The first game and the second game are executed asynchronously. That is, the user U1 can start the first game at an arbitrary timing, and the user U2 can also start the second game at an arbitrary timing. That is, the second game may not be finished when the first game is finished, or the first game may not be finished when the second game is finished.

After the end of the first match, a reward is given to the user U1 (S4). FIG. 6 shows an example of a match result image displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1 after the end of the first match. The match result image G130 shown in FIG. 6 includes elements P131 to P135. Element P131 indicates victory or defeat (win, draw, defeat). Element P132 indicates the scores of both teams.

The element P133 indicates the number of medals acquired by the user U1 in this game and the number of medals owned by the user U1. In this soccer game, medals are given to the user U1 according to the result of the first game. The better the result of the first match, the more medals will be awarded to user U1. The medals can be used to obtain game items. The number of medals required to obtain a game item is determined for each game item, and the user can obtain the game item in exchange for the predetermined number of medals.

The element P134 indicates a lottery point acquired by the user U1 in this game and a lottery point owned by the user U1. In this soccer game, lottery points are also given to the user U1 according to the result of the first game. The better the result of the first game, the more lottery points are given to the user U1. The lottery points can be used to obtain event characters that can be used in the training part.

In the training part of this soccer game, various events such as events that are advantageous for improving the ability of the main character occur. The events that occur in the training part are not fixed, and the events that occur in the training part change according to one or more game characters incorporated in the event deck. That is, in the scenario, the game character incorporated in the event deck appears as a teammate of the main character, and an event related to the game character occurs. Therefore, the user can select an event that can occur in the training part by selecting a game character to be incorporated in the event deck. A game character that can be incorporated into this event deck is an "event character". The user can perform a lottery in exchange for a predetermined number of lottery points, and an event character selected based on the probability is given to the user. In addition, instead of the event character, a player character that can be used as a member of his / her soccer team may be obtained by lottery.

The reward is not limited to medals and lottery points, and rewards other than medals and lottery points may be given to the user U1.

The element P135 is selected when the match result image G130 has been viewed. When the user U1 selects the element P135, the battle situation image is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1. FIG. 7 shows an example of a battle situation image.

The battle situation image G140 shown in FIG. 7 shows the current situation of the battle between the user U1 and the user U2. Here, it is assumed that the second game is not finished when the first game is finished. The battle situation image G140 includes elements P141 to P144. Element P141 indicates the names and league ranks of the opposing users U1 and U2.

Element P142 indicates the situation of the first game. That is, the element P142 indicates the situation of the home game of the user U1 (the away game of the user U2). If the first match is over, element P142 indicates the result of the first match as shown in FIG. 7, and if the first match is not over, element P142 indicates that the first match is in progress. Shown.

On the other hand, element P143 indicates the situation of the second game. That is, the element P143 indicates the status of the away game of the user U1 (home game of the user U2). If the second match is over, element P143 indicates the result of the second match, and if the second match is not over, element P143 indicates that the second match is in progress, as shown in FIG. Shown.

Element P144 is for returning to the main image G100. When the user U1 selects the element P144, the main image G100 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1.

In this state, the user U1 can perform a new battle by selecting the element P104 of the main image G100. That is, even if the second match is not completed and the match with the user U2 is not completed, the user U1 can start a new match with another user.

Further, when the element P103 of the main image G100 in this state is selected, the battle history image showing the history of the battle related to the user (the battle currently played by the user or the battle played by the user in the past) is the user U1. It is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30. FIG. 8 shows an example of a battle history image. The battle history image G150 shown in FIG. 8 includes a plurality of elements P151-1, P1512, ... Corresponding to a plurality of battles related to the user. For example, a plurality of elements P151-1, P151-2, ... Are displayed in order from the top to the bottom in order from the latest battle. In element P151-2, the opponent is user U10, the result of the home match is "3-1", the result of the away match is "0-0", and the user U1 wins the match against user U10. Show that you did. On the other hand, element P151-1 indicates that the opponent is the user U2, the result of the home match is "2-0", the away match has not ended, and the match is in progress. In this way, in the battle history image G150, the finished battle and the running battle are displayed in a distinguishable manner.

When the user U1 selects any of the plurality of elements P151-1, P151-2, ..., Detailed information regarding the selected match is displayed on the display unit 35. In this case, the user can view, for example, the stats information of the home game and the away game, the progress (log) from the start to the end of the home game, the progress (log) from the start to the end of the away game, and the like.

The battle history image G150 includes an element P152 for returning to the main image G100. When the user U1 selects the element P152, the main image G100 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the second game is completed, the user U2 is rewarded (S5). That is, after the end of the second game, a game result image similar to the game result image G130 shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U2, and medals and lottery points are given to the user 2. To.

After both the first match and the second match are completed, the result of the match between the user U1 and the user U2 is determined (S6). The match result is determined based on both the result of the first match and the result of the second match. 9 and 10 are diagrams for explaining a method of determining a battle result.

In this soccer game, points are given to users U1 and U2 according to the result of the first game. When the user U1 wins in the first match, as shown in FIG. 9, the winning points "3" are given to the user U1. When the user U1 draws in the first match, as shown in FIG. 9, the winning points "1" are given to the user U1. In this case, the winning point "1" is also given to the user U2. If the user U1 is defeated in the first match, that is, if the CPU that operates the soccer team of the user U2 wins instead of the user U2, as shown in FIG. 9, no points are given to the user U1. In this case, the winning points "3" are given to the user U2.

Similarly, points are awarded to users U1 and U2 according to the result of the second game. When the user U2 wins in the second game, the winning points "3" are given to the user U2 as shown in FIG. When the user U2 draws in the second game, the winning points "1" are given to the user U2 as shown in FIG. In this case, the winning points "1" are also given to the user U1. If the user U2 is defeated in the second game, that is, if the CPU that operates the soccer team of the user U1 wins instead of the user U1, the user U2 is not given points as shown in FIG. In this case, the winning points "3" are given to the user U1.

The match result is determined based on the comparison (large and small) between the points won by the user U1 obtained in the first and second games and the points won by the user U2 obtained in the first and second games.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (1), when the user U1 wins both the home game and the away game, that is, the user U1 wins in the first game and the CPU (user U1's) wins in the second game. Instead, if the CPU that operates the soccer team of user U1 wins, the points of points of users U1 and U2 are "6" and "0", respectively. In this case, since the user U1 has more points than the user U2, it is determined that the user U1 wins and the user U2 loses. In particular, in this case, since the winning points of the user U2 are "0", it is determined that the user U1 has completely won.

Further, for example, as shown in (2) of FIG. 10, when the user U1 wins the home game and draws in the away game, that is, the user U1 wins in the first game and the CPU (user) wins in the second game. When the CPU that operates the soccer team of the user U1 instead of the U1 draws, the points won by the users U1 and U2 are "4" and "1", respectively. In this case, since the user U1 has more points than the user U2, it is determined that the user U1 wins and the user U2 loses.

Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 10 (6), when the user U1 draws in the home game and loses in the away game, that is, the user U1 draws in the first game and the CPU (user U1's) in the second game. If the CPU that operates the soccer team of user U1 is defeated instead, the points won by users U1 and U2 are "1" and "4", respectively. In this case, since the user U1 has fewer points than the user U2, it is determined that the user U1 is defeated and the user U2 wins.

Further, for example, as shown in (3) of FIG. 10, when the user U1 wins the home game and loses in the away game, that is, the user U1 wins in the first game and the CPU (user) in the second game. If the CPU that operates the soccer team of user U1 instead of U1 is defeated, the points won by users U1 and U2 are "3" and "3", respectively. In this case, since the points of the users U1 and U2 are the same, the points of victory or defeat are determined by the difference in points. That is, the value of the score difference of the user U1 is calculated by summing the difference between the score and the goal of the user U1 in the first game and the difference between the score and the goal of the CPU in the second game. Similarly, the difference between the score and the goal of the CPU (the CPU that operated the soccer team of the user U2 instead of the user U2) in the first game and the difference between the score and the goal of the user U2 in the second game are totaled. As a result, the value of the score difference of the user U2 is calculated. Then, among the users U1 and U2, the one with the larger goal difference is determined to be the winner. If the difference in points scored by the users U1 and U2 is the same, it may be decided as a draw, or the winner may be determined to have the larger total points.

If the second match is not completed by the predetermined deadline (for example, within a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) after the combination of the users to be played against is decided), the user U2 is defeated and the user It is decided that U1 has won. On the contrary, if the first match is not completed by the predetermined deadline, it is determined that the user U1 is defeated and the user U2 is won.

When the result of the battle between the users U1 and U2 is determined, the main image G100 notifies that fact. FIG. 11 shows an example of the main image G100 in this case. The main image G100 shown in FIG. 11 includes an element P105 that prompts the user to confirm the battle result. The element P105 is displayed in place of the element P103 when there is a battle result that the user U1 has not viewed among the battle results between the user U1 and another user, and the element P105 is viewed by the user U1. An element P106 indicating the number of no match results is displayed in association with the element P105.

When the user U1 selects the element P105, a battle result image showing the battle result between the user U1 and the user U2 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1. FIG. 12 shows an example of a battle result image. The battle result image G160 shown in FIG. 12 includes elements P161 to P166.

Element P161 indicates the names and league ranks of the users U1 and U2 who have played against each other. The element P162 indicates the result of the home game (first game) for the user U1. Element P163 indicates the result of an away match (second match) for user U1. Element P164 indicates the final match result between users U1 and U2. Element P165 indicates the reward earned by user U1.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the battle result between the users U1 and U2 is determined, the reward is given to the users U1 and U2 (S7).

In this soccer game, league points are given to each of the users U1 and U2 according to the result of the match. FIG. 13 shows an example of the correspondence between the match result and the league points given to the user. In the example shown in FIG. 13, when the user wins the match, at least 10 points are given to the user. When the user wins in a row, the league points given to the user are increased according to the number of consecutive wins. For example, in the case of two consecutive wins, 1 point is added and 11 points are given to the user, and in the case of three consecutive wins, 2 points are added and 12 points are given to the user. Also, if the user wins completely, the league points given to the user will be increased. For example, the league points given to the user are tripled. For example, if the user wins completely and wins two consecutive times, 33 points (= 11 points * 3) are given to the user U1. Further, in the example shown in FIG. 13, when the user draws in the match, 5 points are given to the user, and when the user loses in the match, 3 points are given to the user. If the user is defeated, league points may not be given to the user. The correspondence between the match result and the league points given to the user may be different depending on the rank of the league to which the user belongs.

In this soccer game, in addition to league points, a winning reward is given to the user who wins the match. Whether or not to give a victory reward and the victory reward are decided by lottery. FIG. 14 shows an example of a method for determining the winning reward.

As shown in FIG. 14, first, the first lottery determines whether or not to give the winning user a winning reward. In the example shown in FIG. 14, the probability of giving the winning reward is set to "0.7", and the probability of not giving the winning reward is set to "0.3". In this case, for example, if a random number of 1 to 100 is generated and the value is 1 to 70, it is determined that the winning reward is given, and if the value is 71 to 100, it is determined not to give the winning reward.

If it is decided by the first lottery that the victory reward will be given, the rank (rareity, value, etc.) of the victory reward will be decided by the second lottery. In the example shown in FIG. 14, the probability of setting the winning reward rank to "high" is set to "0.2", and the probability of setting the winning reward rank to "low" is set to "0.8". ing. In this case, for example, if a random number of 1 to 100 is generated and the value is 1 to 20, it is determined that the rank of the victory reward is set to "high", and if the value is 21 to 100, the rank of the victory reward is set. Is set to "Low".

If the rank of the winning reward is determined by the second lottery, the winning reward is determined by the third lottery. As shown in FIG. 14, when the rank of the winning reward is determined to be "high", one of the high-ranked rewards is selected by the third lottery, and the selected reward is given to the winning user. Granted. On the other hand, when the rank of the winning reward is determined to be "low", one of the low rank rewards is selected by the third lottery, and the selected reward is given to the winning user.

The element P165 of the battle result image G160 indicates the league points and the winning reward determined as described above. Element P166 is for returning to the main image G100. When the user U1 selects the element P166, the main image G100 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 of the user U1.

In this soccer game, the user can start a new match without checking (viewing) the match result. In this regard, when the element P104 of the main image G100 is selected in a state where the number of battle results not confirmed by the user is a predetermined number (for example, 10) or more, a message image prompting to confirm the battle result is displayed on the display unit. It is displayed on 35. FIG. 15 shows an example of a message image. The message image G170 shown in FIG. 15 includes elements P171 to P173.

Element P171 is a message prompting to confirm the result of the match. Element P172 is for returning to the main image G100. When the user U1 selects the element P172, the main image G100 is displayed on the display unit 35. Element P173 is for confirming the battle result. When the user U1 selects the element P173, the battle result image G160 is displayed on the display unit 35. In this case, for example, the battle result image G160 is displayed in order from the battle result having the oldest battle end date and time. In this case, in the battle result image G160 showing the battle result other than the latest battle result, instead of the element P166 (the "return to main" button), the element for confirming the next battle result (the "next" button). ) Is displayed, and when the element is selected, the battle result image G160 showing the next battle result is displayed on the display unit 35.

Further, in this soccer game, the opponent of the user U1 is usually determined from among other users who belong to the same league as the user U1, but there is a certain probability that the opponent of the user U1 is the user. A special event (giant killing event) that is determined from other users who belong to a league higher than the league to which U1 belongs occurs. FIG. 16 shows an example of the opponent image G120 when a giant killing event occurs. In the opponent image G120 shown in FIG. 16, an element P128 indicating that a giant killing event has occurred is displayed, and a user U3 higher than the user U1 is selected as an opponent. That is, the user U3 who belongs to the league one level higher than the league to which the user U1 belongs is selected as the opponent. When a giant killing event occurs, user U1 can earn more league points than in a regular match.

As described above, in the game system 1, when the user U2 is selected as the opponent of the user U1, the result of the first match between the user U1 and the CPU and the result of the second match between the user U2 and the CPU. Since the battle result between the user U1 and the user U2 is determined based on the above, the opponent user U2 himself / herself actually participates in the battle. As a result, even in an asynchronous battle (not a real-time battle), the user U1 can feel as if he / she is actually playing a battle with the user U2 as if it were a real-time battle.

[3-1-5] In addition to the table described above, the data storage unit 100 stores, for example, an event character table or the like which is data indicating a list of event characters owned by the user. , The description is omitted here.

[3-2] As shown in FIG. 17, the game server 10 includes a display control unit 110, a hierarchical information association unit 120, a battle request reception unit 130, an opponent selection unit 140, a game object provision unit 150, and a first battle result. It includes a receiving unit 160-1, a second battle result receiving unit 160-2, a deadline elapse determination unit 165, a battle result determining unit 170, a reward association unit 180, and a battle result transmitting unit 190. These are realized by the control unit 11 of the game server 10. When the control unit 11 executes the process according to the program, the control unit 11 functions as these functional blocks.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17, the game terminal 30-1 includes a battle request transmission unit 310-1, a game object acquisition unit 320-1, a first battle execution unit 330-1, and a first battle result transmission unit 340-1. The battle result receiving unit 350-1 and the display control unit 360-1 are included. These are realized by the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-1. When the control unit 31 executes the process according to the program, the control unit 31 functions as these functional blocks.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17, the game terminal 30-2 includes a battle request transmission unit 310-2, a game object acquisition unit 320-2, a second battle execution unit 330-2, and a second battle result transmission unit 340-2. The battle result receiving unit 350-2 and the display control unit 360-2 are included. These are realized by the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-2. When the control unit 31 executes the process according to the program, the control unit 31 functions as these functional blocks.

[3-2-1] The display control unit 110 controls to display various images on the display means used by the user.

Here, the "display means used by the user" is, for example, a display device (liquid crystal display, organic EL display, etc.) provided in the game terminal 30 used by the user. For example, it is a display device provided in a mobile phone (including a smartphone), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a portable game machine, or the like. Further, for example, it is a display device connected to the game terminal 30 used by the user. For example, it is a display device connected to a stationary game machine or a desktop computer.

"Controlling the display of an image on the display means" means generating data necessary for displaying the image and transmitting the data to the display means or the game terminal 30 connected to the display means. This is to display the image on the display means. The "data necessary for displaying an image" may be data indicating the image itself, or may be data necessary for generating an image.

In the case of the soccer game described above, the display control unit 110 supplies the data necessary for displaying the various images shown in FIGS. 2, 4 to 8, 11, 12, 15 and 16 to the game terminals 30-1, 30-2. Is transmitted to display the image on the display unit 35.

[3-2-2] The hierarchical information association unit 120 associates the user's identification information with any of the plurality of hierarchical information based on the battle result information associated with the user's identification information. The hierarchical information association unit 120 associates the user's identification information with the higher hierarchical information as the user's battle record is better.

Here, the "identification information" is information for uniquely identifying the user. In other words, it is information for identifying a user. For example, a user ID, a user's name, a user account, or an e-mail address corresponds to an example of "identification information". In the case of the soccer game described above, the user ID corresponds to an example of "identification information".

The "competition record information" is information indicating the superiority or inferiority of the competition results performed by the user in the past. For example, if points are given to the user according to the result of the battle performed by the user, the points correspond to an example of "competition result information". Further, for example, the number of times the user wins (or the number of times the user loses) also corresponds to an example of "competition record information". In the case of the soccer game mentioned above, the league points correspond to an example of "competition record information".

The "plurality-level information" is information for dividing the user into a plurality of levels based on the battle result information. For example, if level information (for example, any of levels 1 to 10) is associated with the user's identification information based on the match result information associated with the user's identification information, the level information is "hierarchical information". Corresponds to one example. Also, for example, if the user's identification information is associated with any of a plurality of group information (for example, top group, top group, middle group, bottom group, etc.) based on the user's match record, group information. Corresponds to an example of "hierarchical information". In the case of the soccer game mentioned above, the rank of the league corresponds to an example of "hierarchical information".

In the case of the soccer game described above, the hierarchical information association unit 120 makes the user belong to any of the leagues of ranks 1 to 6 based on the league points of the user. For example, the hierarchy information association unit 120 ranks all users belonging to the league based on the league points acquired by each user during the league match period. Then, the hierarchy information association unit 120 moves the user whose rank at the end of the league match period is equal to or higher than the promotion reference rank to the league one rank higher. In addition, the hierarchy information association unit 120 moves the user whose rank at the end of the league match period is equal to or lower than the demotion reference rank to the league one rank lower. The hierarchical information association unit 120 leaves users other than the above (that is, users whose ranking at the end of the league match period is lower than the promotion standard ranking and higher than the demotion standard ranking) in the current league.

[3-2-3] The battle request transmission unit 310-1 transmits the battle request to the game server 10 via the communication unit 33. The battle request transmission unit 310-2 is also the same as the battle request transmission unit 310-1. The battle request reception unit 130 receives battle requests from each of a plurality of users.

Here, the "match request" is data indicating that a match with another user is requested. Further, "accepting a battle request" means receiving data indicating that a battle is requested from the user's game terminal 30. Alternatively, "accepting a match request" may mean accepting an operation indicating that a match is requested.

In the soccer game described above, when the element P104 of the main image G100 is selected, the battle request transmission unit 310-1 or 310-2 transmits the battle request to the game server 10 via the communication unit 33. The battle request receiving unit 130 receives the battle request transmitted by the battle request transmitting unit 310-1 or 310-2 via the communication unit 13.

[3-2-4] The opponent selection unit 140 selects another user as the user's opponent.

Here, the "opponent" is an opponent who plays against the user. That is, the "opponent" is the opponent who decides the victory or defeat with the user.

"Selecting another user as an opponent" means, for example, automatically selecting another user as an opponent according to a predetermined rule. It is to automatically select an opponent from other users who satisfy a predetermined condition. For example, if each user belongs to one of multiple hierarchies based on the battle results, the opponent is automatically selected from other users who belong to the same hierarchy group as the user. Is to choose. Alternatively, "selecting another user as an opponent" may mean, for example, selecting another user as an opponent according to an operation specified by the user. That is, another user specified by the user may be selected as an opponent.

For example, the opponent selection unit 140 selects an opponent from other users whose battle request has been received by the battle request reception unit 130 when the battle request from the user is received by the battle request reception unit 130. ..

Here, "when the battle request from the user is received by the battle request reception unit 130, the opponent is selected from the other users whose battle request is received by the battle request reception unit 130" means the user. When a match is requested from, an opponent is selected from other users who are also currently requesting a match.

Further, for example, the opponent selection unit 140 may select another user as a new opponent of the user after the end of the first battle and before the battle result is determined by the battle result determination unit 170. Good.

Here, "after the end of the first match, before the match result is determined by the match result determination unit 170" is after the end of the first match and before the end of the second match.

As shown in FIG. 17, the opponent selection unit 140 includes a first opponent selection unit 141 and a second opponent selection unit 142.

The first opponent selection unit 141 selects a user who is identified by the identification information associated with the same hierarchical information as the hierarchical information associated with the user's identification information as the user's opponent.

Here, the "user identified by the identification information associated with the same hierarchical information as the hierarchical information associated with the user's identification information" is another user belonging to the same hierarchy as the user. In the case of the soccer game described above, another user belonging to the league of the same rank as the user corresponds to an example of the above "user".

Based on a predetermined condition, the second opponent selection unit 142 associates the user's opponent with hierarchical information higher than the hierarchical information associated with the user's identification information, instead of the first opponent selection unit 141. Select the user identified by the identified identification information.

Here, "based on a predetermined condition" means that when a predetermined condition is satisfied, an opponent is selected by the second opponent selection unit 142 instead of the first opponent selection unit 141. .. For example, when the second opponent selection unit 142 determines whether or not to select an opponent based on the probability information, and the second opponent selection unit 142 determines whether or not to select an opponent, the first opponent The opponent is selected by the second opponent selection unit 142 instead of the selection unit 141. Further, for example, when the user's battle record satisfies a predetermined condition (for example, when the number of battles reaches a predetermined number), the opponent is selected by the second opponent selection unit 142 instead of the first opponent selection unit 141. Is to choose. In the case of the soccer game described above, the occurrence of a giant killing event corresponds to an example of "predetermined conditions".

The "user identified by the identification information associated with the hierarchical information above the hierarchical information associated with the user's identification information" is another user belonging to the hierarchy above the user. In the case of the soccer game described above, another user belonging to a league higher than the league to which the user belongs corresponds to an example of the above "user".

In the soccer game described above, the first opponent selection unit 141 selects another user who belongs to the league of the same rank as the user as the opponent of the user. In addition, the second opponent selection unit 142 determines whether or not to generate the giant killing event based on a predetermined probability. If it is determined to generate a giant killing event, the second opponent selection unit 142, as the user's opponent, belongs to another league higher than the league to which the user belongs. Select a user.

[3-2-5] The game object providing unit 150 includes a first game object associated with the identification information of a user using the game terminal 30-1, and another user selected as an opponent of the user. A second game object associated with the identification information of is provided to the game terminal 30-1. Similarly, the game object providing unit 150 provides the first game object and the second game object to the game terminal 30-2.

Here, the "game object" is an object that can be used in a game. For example, a game character, a game item, or the like corresponds to an example of a “game object”. The game character or game item may be displayed on the game screen in the form of a game card. For example, a game object is set with multiple parameters. The "parameter" is, for example, information indicating the performance of the game object, information indicating the state of the game object, information indicating the rarity or popularity of the game object, and the like. The parameters are not limited to numerical information, and may be information other than numerical information.

The "first game object associated with the user's identification information" is a game object stored in association with the user's identification information. In other words, it is a game object owned by the user. In other words, it is a game object that is ready for use by the user. In the case of the soccer game described above, the user's soccer team (player character who is a member of the user's soccer team) corresponds to an example of the above-mentioned "first game object".

The "second game object associated with the identification information of another user" is a game object stored in association with the identification information of another user. In other words, it is a game object owned by another user. In other words, it is a game object that is ready for use by other users. In the case of the soccer game described above, the soccer team of another user (a player character who is a member of the soccer team of another user) corresponds to an example of the above-mentioned "second game object".

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U2 who uses the game terminal 30-2 is determined as the opponent of the user U1 who uses the game terminal 30-1, the game object providing unit 150 determines. The data of the soccer team of the user U1 (an example of the first game object) and the data of the soccer team of the user U2 (an example of the second game object) are transmitted to the game terminal 30-1. Further, the game object providing unit 150 also transmits the data of the soccer team of the user U1 and the data of the soccer team of the user U2 to the game terminal 30-2.

[3-2-6] The game object acquisition unit 320-1 has the first game object associated with the identification information of the user using the game terminal 30-1, and the other selected as the opponent of the user. Acquires the second game object associated with the user's identification information. That is, the game object acquisition unit 320-1 receives the first game object and the second game object provided (transmitted) by the game object providing unit 150. Similarly, the game object acquisition unit 320-2 also acquires the first game object and the second game object. The game object acquisition unit 320-2 also receives the first game object and the second game object provided (transmitted) by the game object providing unit 150.

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 is determined as the opponent of the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1, the game object acquisition unit 320-1 Is acquired by receiving the data of the soccer team of the user U1 (an example of the first game object) and the data of the soccer team of the user U2 (an example of the second game object). Similarly, the game object acquisition unit 320-2 also acquires the data of the soccer team of the user U1 and the data of the soccer team of the user U2 by receiving the data.

[3-2-7] The first battle execution unit 330-1 includes the first game object associated with the user's identification information and the identification information of another user selected as an opponent by the opponent selection unit 140. The first match between the user and the first computer is performed based on the associated second game object. For example, in the first match, a match is performed between a first game object that operates based on a user's instruction and a second game object that operates based on an instruction of a first computer.

The second battle execution unit 330-2 executes a second battle between another user selected as an opponent by the opponent selection unit 140 and the second computer based on the second game object and the first game object. To do. For example, in the second battle, a battle is performed between a first game object that operates based on the instructions of the second computer and a second game object that operates based on the instructions of another user.

Here, "competition" is to decide the victory or defeat with the opponent. In a match, the win / loss does not necessarily have to be decided, and it may be a draw.

"Execute a match between the user and the first computer based on the first game object and the second game object" means that the first game object that operates based on the user's instruction and the instruction of the first computer are used. It is to execute a battle with a second game object that operates based on the above. In other words, the user uses the first game object, and the first computer executes a match that is played using the second game object. In other words, the user operates the first game object, and the first computer executes the battle in which the second game object is operated.

The "first computer" is, for example, a control unit (processor, CPU) of a game terminal used by a user. It may be the CPU of a computer (for example, a server) other than the game terminal used by the user.

"Execute a match between another user and the second computer based on the second game object and the first game object" means that the second game object that operates based on the instruction of the other user and the second game object. It is to execute a battle with a first game object that operates based on a computer instruction. In other words, another user uses the second game object, and the second computer executes a battle that is performed using the first game object. In other words, another user operates the second game object, and the second computer executes a battle in which the first game object is operated.

The "second computer" is, for example, the CPU of a game terminal used by another user. The CPU of a computer (for example, a server) other than the game terminal used by another user may be used. The second computer may be a different computer from the first computer, or may be the same.

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 is determined as the opponent of the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1, the first battle execution unit 330- 1 executes a first match (an example of the first match) between the user U1 who operates the soccer team of the user U1 and the control unit 31 (CPU) of the game terminal 30-1 which operates the soccer team of the user U2. .. In addition, the second match execution unit 330-2 is a second game between the user U2 who operates the soccer team of the user U2 and the control unit 31 (CPU) of the game terminal 30-2 which operates the soccer team of the user U1. An example of the second match) is executed.

[3-2-8] The first match result transmission unit 340-1 transmits the result of the first match to the game server 10. The first battle result receiving unit 160-1 receives the result of the first battle transmitted by the first battle result transmitting unit 340-1.

The second battle result transmission unit 340-2 transmits the result of the second battle to the game server 10. The second battle result receiving unit 160-2 receives the result of the second battle transmitted by the second battle result transmitting unit 340-2.

Here, the "result of the match" is, for example, victory or defeat. It is not always necessary to decide whether to win or lose, and it may be a draw. In addition, in the case of a match competing for points, the score difference also corresponds to the "result of the match".

In the case of the soccer game described above, the first match result transmission unit 340-1 transmits the result of the first match to the game server 10, and the first match result receiving unit 160-1 sends the first match result transmission unit 340-1. Receives the result of the first match sent by. The second match result transmitting unit 340-2 transmits the result of the second match to the game server 10, and the second match result receiving unit 160-2 is the second match transmitted by the second match result transmitting unit 340-2. Receive the result of.

[3-2-9] The battle result determination unit 170 is between a user and another user selected as an opponent by the opponent selection unit 140 based on the result of the first battle and the result of the second battle. Determine the result of the match. The match result determination unit 170 determines the result of the match between the user and another user based on the result of the first match and the result of the second match after both the first match and the second match are completed. To decide.

Here, the "match result" is the same as the "match result" described above. In addition, "determining the result of a match between a user and another user based on the result of the first match and the result of the second match" means that the result of the first match and the result of the second match are used. Based on this, for example, it is determined whether the user has won or another user has won (whether the user has been defeated). In addition, it may be decided that it is a draw. For example, the result of a match between a user and another user is determined based on the win / loss and score difference in the first match and the win / loss and score difference in the second match. More specifically, for example, the user's points are calculated based on the result of the user in the first match (win / loss, score difference, etc.) and the result of the second computer in the second match (win / loss, score difference, etc.). Based on the results of the first computer in the first match (win / loss, score difference, etc.) and the results of other users in the second match (win / loss, score difference, etc.), the points of other users are calculated and those points are calculated. By comparing, the result of the match between the user and another user is determined.

"After both the first match and the second match are over" is after the results of both the first match and the second match are confirmed.

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1 and the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 are competing against each other, the match result determination unit 170 is the user U1. , U2 points are calculated based on the results of the first and second games (see FIG. 9). Then, the battle result determination unit 170 determines the battle result between the users U1 and U2 by comparing the winning points of the users U1 and U2 (see FIG. 10). Specifically, the match result determination unit 170 determines the user with the most points as the winner. If the points of the users U1 and U2 are equal, the match result determination unit 170 compares the difference in points scored by the users U1 and U2 in the first match and the second match to determine the match result between the users U1 and U2. Determine (see FIG. 10). Specifically, the match result determination unit 170 determines the user with the larger goal difference as the winner.

After the end of the first match (an example of the first match), even before the match result is determined by the match result determination unit 170, the opponent selection unit 140 can be used as a new opponent of the user U1. Other users (users other than users U1 and U2) can be selected. Similarly, after the end of the second game, even before the battle result is determined by the battle result determination unit 170, the opponent selection unit 140 can be used as a new opponent of the user U2 by another user (user U1). , Users other than U2) can be selected. Here, "after the end of the first match, before the match result is determined by the match result determination unit 170" is after the end of the first match and before the end of the second match. Similarly, "after the end of the second match, before the match result is determined by the match result determination unit 170" is after the end of the second match and before the end of the first match.

[3-2-10] The deadline elapse determination unit 165 determines whether or not a predetermined deadline has passed. Then, as a result of the determination by the deadline elapse determination unit 165, when the predetermined deadline has passed, when the first match has ended and the second match has not ended, the match result determination unit 170 uses the user. Determines that the other user has been defeated in a match between and the other user. On the other hand, as a result of the determination by the deadline elapse determination unit 165, when the predetermined deadline has passed, the second battle has ended, and when the first battle has not ended, the battle result determination unit 170 uses the user. Determines that the user has been defeated in a match between and another user.

Here, the "predetermined deadline" is the deadline for ending the first match and the second match. For example, a time point at which a predetermined time has elapsed since another user was selected as a user's opponent is set as a "deadline". Further, for example, a time point at which a predetermined time has elapsed since the end of one of the first match and the second match is set as the "deadline".

"When the deadline has passed, if the first match is over and the second match is not over, it is determined that the other user has been defeated in the match between the user and the other user. "" Means that if the first match has ended but the second match has not ended by the time the deadline has passed, another user who did not end the second match will be determined as the loser. It is to be. The "case where the match has not ended" means that the match has not started in the first place, or the match has started but the match has not ended by the deadline.

"When the deadline has passed, if the second match has ended and the first match has not ended, it is determined that the user has been defeated in the match between the user and another user." Is to determine the user who did not finish the first match as a loser when the first match has not ended by the expiration of the deadline even though the second match has ended. ..

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1 and the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 are competing against each other, the expiration date determination unit 165 is competing against each other. It is determined whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed since the users U1 and U2 are determined as the combination of users. Then, if the second match is not completed when the predetermined time elapses, the match result determination unit 170 determines that the user U2 is defeated and the user U1 wins. On the other hand, if the first match is not completed when the predetermined time has elapsed, the match result determination unit 170 determines that the user U1 has been defeated and the user U2 has won.

[3-2-11] The reward association unit 180 associates the reward with the user's identification information.

Here, "associating a reward with the user's identification information" means giving a reward to the user identified by the identification information.

For example, it is to give a game object (game item, game character, etc.) to the user. That is, by giving the user a new game object that the user does not own, or by further giving the user a game object that the user already owns, the number of the game objects that the user owns can be determined. Is to increase. In other words, it is associated with the user's identification information by associating a new game object with the user's identification information, or by further associating the game object with the user's identification information while the user's identification information is associated with the game object. Is to increase the number of game objects that have been created.

Also, for example, giving a user game points or in-game currency. That is, it is to increase the game points or the in-game currency held by the user. In other words, increasing the game points or in-game currency associated with the user's identification information by further associating the game points or in-game currency with the user's identification information and the game points or in-game currency. Is.

The "reward" is not limited to the game object, game points, or in-game currency, and various rewards can be set according to the content of the game. For example, a special title may be given to the user as a "reward". Also, for example, as a "reward", parameters associated with the user (parameters other than game points) may be changed temporarily or permanently to the advantage of the user.

As shown in FIG. 17, the reward association unit 180 includes a first reward association unit 181, a second reward association unit 182, and a third reward association unit 183.

The first reward association unit 181 associates the first reward with the user's identification information based on the result of the first match. Here, "associating the first reward with the user's identification information based on the result of the first match" determines whether or not to associate the first reward with the user's identification information based on the result of the first match. Or, the first reward (type or amount, etc.) associated with the user's identification information is determined based on the result of the first match.

The second reward association unit 182 associates the second reward with the identification information of another user selected as an opponent by the opponent selection unit 140 based on the result of the second match. Here, "associating the second reward with the identification information of another user based on the result of the second match" means whether or not to associate the second reward with the identification information of the other user as the result of the second match. The second reward (type or amount, etc.) to be associated with the identification information of other users is determined based on the result of the second match.

For example, in the soccer game described above, when the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1 and the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 are competing against each other, the first reward association unit 181 is the first. Based on the result of one game, a medal and lottery points (an example of the first reward) are given to the user U1. In addition, the second reward association unit 182 grants the user U2 a medal and lottery points (an example of the second reward) based on the result of the second game.

The third reward association unit 183 associates the third reward with at least one identification information of the user and another user (opponent) based on the battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170. Here, "associating the third reward with at least one of the identification information of the user and the other user based on the battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170" means the battle determined by the battle result determination means. Based on the result, at least one of the user's identification information and the other user's identification information is determined as the target to be associated with the third reward, or at least one of the user's identification information and the other user's identification information is associated with the third reward. 3 It is to decide the reward (type or amount, etc.).

The third reward association unit 183 includes a reward determination unit 184. When the match result determination unit 170 determines that the user has won, the reward determination unit 184 determines whether or not to associate the reward (third reward) with the user's identification information and the reward (third) associated with the user's identification information. The type of reward) is determined based on the probability information.

Here, "determining whether or not to associate the reward with the user's identification information and the type of reward to be associated with the user's identification information based on the probability information" means whether or not to associate the reward with the user's identification information. When the decision is made based on the probability information and it is decided to associate the reward with the user's identification information, the type of reward to be associated with the user's identification information is determined based on the probability information from among a plurality of types.

For example, in the above-mentioned soccer game, when the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1 and the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 are competing against each other, the battle result determination unit 170 determines the user U1. When it is determined that the user U1 has won, the reward determination unit 184 determines whether or not to give the user U1 a victory reward (an example of a third reward) and the type of the victory reward based on the probability information (FIG. 14). reference). On the other hand, when the battle result determination unit 170 determines that the user U2 has won, the reward determination unit 184 determines whether or not to give the user U2 a victory reward (an example of the third reward) and the type of the victory reward. It is determined based on the probability information (see FIG. 14). The third reward association unit 183 grants league points (an example of the third reward) to the users U1 and U2 based on the battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170 (see FIG. 13). Further, the third reward association unit 183 grants the winning reward to the winner of the users U1 and U2 based on the result of the determination by the reward determination unit 184.

[3-2-12] When the user U2 using the game terminal 30-2 is determined as the opponent of the user U1 using the game terminal 30-1 and the battle is executed, the battle result is transmitted. The unit 190 transmits the battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170 to each of the game terminals 30-1 and 30-2. The battle result receiving units 350-1 and 350-2 receive the battle result transmitted by the battle result transmitting unit 190.

[3-2-13] The display control unit 360-1 controls the display unit 35 (an example of the display means used by the user) of the game terminal 30-1 to display various images. The display control unit 360-2 controls the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-2 to display various images. Here, "controlling the display of an image on the display unit 35" means, for example, generating or acquiring (receiving) an image and displaying the image on the display unit 35. Since the display control unit 360-2 is the same as the display control unit 360-1, the display control unit 360-1 will be mainly described below.

For example, the display control unit 360-1 displays an image on the display unit 35 indicating that there is a battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170 and that the battle result has not yet been viewed by the user. Control to display.

Here, the "match result that has not yet been viewed by the user" is a match result that the user has not seen. Further, the "image showing that there is a battle result that has not been viewed by the user" is, for example, an image that simply indicates that there is a battle result that has not yet been viewed by the user. Alternatively, the above-mentioned "image" may be an image showing a list of battle results that have not yet been viewed by the user. Alternatively, the above-mentioned "image" may be an image showing the battle result of the user's battle result, which has not yet been viewed by the user, in distinction from other battle results. In the case of the soccer game described above, the display control unit 360-1 displays the main image G100 (particularly the elements P105 and P106) as shown in FIG. 11 on the display unit 35, for example.

Further, for example, the display control unit 360-1 controls the display unit 35 to display the battle result received by the battle result receiving unit 350-1. In the case of the soccer game described above, the display control unit 360-1 displays the battle result image G160 as shown in FIG. 12, for example, on the display unit 35.

Further, for example, when the display control unit 360-1 is a battle result determined by the battle result determination unit 170 and there are more battle results than a predetermined number that have not yet been viewed by the user. Control is performed to display the image for prompting the user to view the battle result on the display unit 35.

Here, the "image for urging the user to view the battle result" is, for example, an image including a message for urging the user to view the battle result. Alternatively, the above-mentioned "image" may be an image that transitions only to an image for viewing the battle result. In the case of the soccer game described above, the display control unit 360-1 displays the message image G170 as shown in FIG. 15, for example, on the display unit 35.

Further, for example, the display control unit 360-1 controls the display unit 35 to display a list image showing a list of battle information related to the user. In the list image, among the battles related to the user, the battle whose battle result has been determined by the battle result determination unit 170 and the battle whose battle result has not been determined by the battle result determination unit 170 are shown separately.

Here, the "match related to the user" is a match in which the user has participated in the past (a match that has already ended) or a match in which the user is currently participating (a match currently being executed).

"Competition information" is, for example, information on an opponent. If the match has already ended, the match result corresponds to an example of "match information". In the case of a currently running match, the current situation (whether either the first match or the second match has ended, or either the first match or the second match has ended. If so, the result, etc.) corresponds to an example of "competition information".

"A match with a determined match result and a match with an undecided match result are shown separately" means that the user can distinguish between a match with a determined match result and a match with an undecided match result. It is to show in. For example, displaying a specific text or image in association with either a match with a determined match result or a match with an undecided match result, a match with a determined match result and a match with an undecided match result. Displaying specific texts or images that are different from each other, different display modes (colors, etc.) between battles for which the battle result has been determined and battles for which the battle result has not been determined, or the battle result is determined. The display area is divided between a battle that has already been completed and a battle whose battle result has not been determined.

In the case of the soccer game described above, the display control unit 360-1 displays the battle history image G150 (an example of the list image) as shown in FIG. 8 on the display unit 35, for example. In the match history image G150, "in match" is displayed for a match for which the match result has not been determined (see element P151-1 in FIG. 8).

[4. Processing] Next, the processing executed by the game system 1 will be described.

[4-1] FIG. 23 shows an example of the processing executed when the element P104 of the main image G100 is selected. By executing the process shown in FIG. 23 according to the program, the battle request transmission unit 310-1 (310-2), the battle request reception unit 130, and the display control units 110, 360-1 (360-2) are realized. Program. In the following, the process shown in FIG. 23 will be described on the assumption that the user U1 selects the element P104 of the main image G100.

As shown in FIG. 23, first, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30 notifies the game server 10 of the battle request via the communication unit 33 (S300), and the game server 10 receives the battle request via the communication unit 13. (S100). At this time, the ID of the user U1 is transmitted from the game terminal 30 to the game server 10 together with the battle request.

When the battle request is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 of the game server 10 has a predetermined number of battle results that have not yet been viewed by the user U1 among the battle results performed by the user U1 (for example,). 10) It is determined whether or not it is equal to or greater than 10) (S102). For example, the control unit 11 refers to the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 (the battle table TBL104 associated with the ID of the user U1), and the end flag is "1" and the browsing flag is "0". Get the number. Then, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the number is equal to or greater than a predetermined number.

When the above number is equal to or greater than a predetermined number, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the message image G170 to the game terminal 30 via the communication unit 13 (S104), and the game terminal 30 receives the data via the communication unit 33. (S302). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the message image G170 on the display unit 35 (S304). Here, the "image data" may be data indicating information necessary for generating an image, or may be data indicating the image itself. The same applies below.

While the message image G170 is displayed, the control unit 31 monitors whether or not the element P173 is selected. When the element P173 is selected, the control unit 31 requests the data of the battle result image G160 from the game server 10 via the communication unit 33 (S306), and the game server 10 receives the request via the communication unit 13. (S106). At this time, the ID of the user U1 is transmitted from the game terminal 30 to the game server 10 together with the above request.

When the battle request is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the battle result image G160 to the game terminal 30 via the communication unit 13 (S108). For example, the control unit 11 refers to the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 and acquires data related to the battle in which the end flag is “1” and the browsing flag is “0”. Then, based on the data, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the battle result image G160 to the game terminal 30.

The game terminal 30 receives the data of the battle result image G160 via the communication unit 33 (S308), and the control unit 31 displays the battle result image G160 on the display unit 35 (S310) based on the data. In this case, the battle result image G160 showing the unviewed battle result is displayed in order from the oldest battle end date and time. In this case, the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 is accessed, and the viewing flag of the battle viewed by the user U1 is updated to "1".

While the battle result image G160 is displayed, the control unit 31 monitors whether or not the element P166 is selected. When the element P166 is selected, the control unit 31 notifies the game server 10 that the battle result has been confirmed (viewed) via the communication unit 33 (S312), and the game server 10 notifies the notification to the communication unit. Received via 13 (S110). At this time, the ID of the user U1 is transmitted from the game terminal 30 to the game server 10 together with the above notification.

When the above notification is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 formally accepts the battle request (S112). If it is determined in step S102 that the number of unviewed battle results is not equal to or greater than a predetermined number, the control unit 11 formally accepts the battle request without executing steps S104 to S110 (S112).

[4-2] In FIGS. 24A, 24B, and 24C, when a battle request is transmitted from each of the game terminals 30-1 and 30-2 to the game server 10, and the battle request is formally accepted by the control unit 11. An example of the processing to be executed is shown. The functional block shown in FIG. 17 is realized by executing the processes shown in FIGS. 24A to 24C according to the program. In the following, the processes shown in FIGS. 24A to 24C will be described on the assumption that the user U1 is using the game terminal 30-1 and the user U2 is using the game terminal 30-2.

As shown in FIG. 24A, when a match request is transmitted from the game terminal 30-1 to the game server 10 (S300-1) and the match request is formally accepted by the control unit 11 (S112), the control unit 11 By referring to the team table TBL103 of the user U1 and the game character table TBL102, the soccer team data of the user U1 is acquired, and the soccer team data of the user U1 is transmitted to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 13 (S120). ). Then, the game terminal 30-1 receives the data (S320-1), and based on the data, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-1 displays the waiting image G110 on the display unit 35 (S322-1). ..

Further, when a match request is transmitted from the game terminal 30-2 to the game server 10 (S300-2) and the match request is formally accepted by the control unit 11 (S112), the control unit 11 uses the team table of the user U2. By referring to the TBL 103 and the game character table TBL 102, the soccer team data of the user U2 is acquired, and the soccer team data of the user U2 is transmitted to the game terminal 30-2 via the communication unit 13 (S120). Then, the game terminal 30-2 receives the data (S320-2), and based on the data, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-2 displays the waiting image G110 on the display unit 35 (S322-2). ..

After executing step S120, the control unit 11 determines the opponents of the users U1 and U2 (S122). For example, the control unit 11 determines whether or not to generate a giant killing event for the user U1 based on a predetermined probability. When it is determined not to generate the giant killing event for the user U1, the control unit 11 belongs to the league of the same rank as the user U1 among other users requesting the battle as the opponent of the user U1. Select one of the users who are doing it. On the other hand, when it is determined that the giant killing event is generated for the user U1, the control unit 11 is one higher than the user U1 among the other users requesting the battle as the opponent of the user U1. Select one of the users who belong to the league of the rank of. The control unit 11 determines the opponent of the user U2 in the same manner.

Here, it is assumed that users U1 and U2 are selected as opponents of each other. That is, it is assumed that users U1 and U2 are selected as a combination of users to play against each other. In this case, the control unit 11 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 and adds a new record to the battle table TBL104 of the user U1. In this case, the ID set so as not to overlap with the existing ID, the ID of the user U2, the current date and time, the value "0", and the value "0" are the "ID", "opponent", and "match" of the new record. Registered in the "Start date and time", "End flag", and "Browse flag" fields. Other fields are set to blank (NULL state). Similarly, the control unit 11 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the user U2 and adds a new record to the battle table TBL104 of the user U2. In this case, the ID set so as not to overlap with the existing ID, the ID of the user U1, the current date and time, the value "0", and the value "0" are the "ID", "opponent", and "match" of the new record. Registered in the "Start date and time", "End flag", and "Browse flag" fields. Other fields are set to blank (NULL state).

After the execution of step S122, the control unit 11 transmits the soccer team data of the user U2, which is the opponent of the user U1, to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 13 (S124), and the game terminal 30-1 is concerned. Data is received via the communication unit 33 (S324-1). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the opponent image G120 on the display unit 35 (S326-1). When a giant killing event occurs for the user U1, the element P128 as shown in FIG. 16 is displayed on the opponent image G120.

Similarly, the control unit 11 transmits the soccer team data of the user U1 who is the opponent of the user U2 to the game terminal 30-2 via the communication unit 13 (S124), and the game terminal 30-2 communicates the data. Received via unit 33 (S324-2). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the opponent image G120 on the display unit 35 (S326-2). When a giant killing event occurs for the user U2, the element P128 as shown in FIG. 16 is displayed on the opponent image G120.

While the opponent image G120 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-1, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-1 monitors whether or not the element P127 is selected. When the element P127 is selected, the control unit 31 executes the first game (S328-1). In this case, based on the soccer team data of the user U1 and the soccer team data of the opponent U2, the control unit 11 operates the soccer team of the user U1 and the user U2 who operate the soccer team of the user U1. A match with the CPU (control unit 31) is executed.

After the end of the first game, the control unit 31 transmits the result data of the first game to the game server 10 via the communication unit 33 (S330-1), and the game server 10 transmits the result data to the game server 10 via the communication unit 13.

In this case, the control unit 31 accesses the match table TBL104 of the user U1 and registers the result of the first match in the "home match" field of the record corresponding to the match with the user U2 this time. Further, the control unit 31 accesses the match table TBL104 of the user U2 and registers the result of the first match in the "away match" field of the record corresponding to the match with the user U1 this time.

After the execution of step S126, the control unit 31 grants medals and lottery points to the user U1 who has played the first game (S128). That is, the control unit 31 accesses the user table TBL101 and increases the number of medals owned by the user U1 and the amount of lottery points by the number or amount according to the result of the first game. Further, the control unit 31 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 and registers it in the "reward" field.

Further, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the game result image G130 of the first game to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 13 (S130), and the game terminal 30-1 transmits the data to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 33. Receive (S332-1). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the match result image G130 of the first match on the display unit 35 (S334-1).

While the game result image G130 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-1, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30-1 monitors whether or not the element P135 is selected. When the element P135 is selected, as shown in FIG. 24B, the control unit 31 notifies the game server 10 that the result of the first game has been confirmed via the communication unit 33 (S336-1), and the game. The server 10 receives the notification via the communication unit 13 (S132).

When the above notification is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the second game is finished, and if the second game is not finished, the data of the battle situation image G140 is input to the game terminal 30. It is transmitted to -1 via the communication unit 13 (S134). The game terminal 30-1 receives the data via the communication unit 33 (S338-1), and the control unit 31 displays the battle situation image G140 on the display unit 35 (S340-1) based on the data.

On the other hand, in the game terminal 30-2, after step S326-2 is executed, that is, while the opponent image G120 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-2, the element P127 is selected by the control unit 31. Monitor if it has been done. When the element P127 is selected, the control unit 31 executes the second game (S328-2). In this case, based on the soccer team data of the user U2 and the soccer team data of the opponent user U1, the control unit 11 operates the soccer team of the user U2 and the user U1 who operate the soccer team of the user U2. A match with the CPU (control unit 31) is executed.

After the end of the second game, the control unit 31 transmits the result data of the second game to the game server 10 via the communication unit 33 (S330-2), and the game server 10 transmits the result data to the game server 10 via the communication unit 13.

In this case, the control unit 31 accesses the match table TBL104 of the user U2 and registers the result of the second match in the "home match" field of the record corresponding to the match with the user U1 this time. Further, the control unit 31 accesses the match table TBL104 of the user U1 and registers the result of the second match in the "away match" field of the record corresponding to the match with the user U2 this time.

After executing step S136, the control unit 31 awards medals and lottery points to the user U2 who has played the second game (S138). That is, the control unit 31 accesses the user table TBL101 and increases the number of medals owned by the user U2 and the amount of lottery points by the number or amount according to the result of the second game. Further, the control unit 31 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the user U2 and registers it in the "reward" field.

Further, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the game result image G130 of the second game to the game terminal 30-2 via the communication unit 13 (S140), and the game terminal 30-2 transmits the data to the game terminal 30-2 via the communication unit 33. Receive (S332-2). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the match result image G130 of the second match on the display unit 35 (S334-2).

After the execution of step S140, in the game server 10, the control unit 11 determines the battle result between the users U1 and U2 (S142). For example, the control unit 11 compares the points won by the user U1 in the first and second games with the points won by the user U2 in the first and second games, and determines the points among the users U1 and U2. The one with the most is decided as the winner. When the points of the users U1 and U2 are equal, the control unit 11 determines the difference in points scored by the user U1 in the first and second games and the difference in points scored by the user U2 in the first and second games. By comparison, the winner is determined to be the user U1 or U2 having the largest goal difference.

Although omitted in FIG. 24B, the control unit 11 monitors whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed after the users U1 and U2 are determined as the combination of the users to be played. Then, if the second game is not completed when the predetermined time elapses, the control unit 11 determines the user U1 as the winner. On the other hand, if the first game is not completed when the predetermined time has elapsed, the control unit 11 determines the user U2 as the winner.

When the battle result is determined, the control unit 31 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the users U1 and U2, respectively, and sets the battle result, the current date and time, and the value "1" to the "match result", the "match end date and time", and the "end flag". "Register the field.

After the match result is determined, the control unit 11 gives league points to the users U1 and U2, and gives a winning reward to the winning user (S144).

For example, the control unit 11 determines the amount of league points to be given to each of the users U1 and U2 based on the battle result determined in step S144 (see FIG. 13). Then, the control unit 11 accesses the user table TBL101 and increases the league points of the users U1 and U2. Further, the control unit 31 accesses the battle table TBL104 of the users U1 and U2, respectively, and registers them in the "reward" field.

Further, for example, the control unit 11 determines whether or not to give the winning reward to the winning user by the first lottery shown in FIG. When it is determined to give the winning reward to the winning user, the control unit 11 determines the winning reward to be given to the winning user by the second lottery and the third lottery shown in FIG. Then, the control unit 11 accesses the user table TBL101 and adds the game item determined as the winning reward to the game item owned by the winning user. Further, the control unit 31 accesses each of the winning user's battle table TBL104 and registers it in the "reward" field.

In the game terminal 30-2, after the execution of step S334-2, that is, while the game result image G130 of the second game is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-2, the element P135 is selected by the control unit 31. Monitor if it has been done. When the element P135 is selected, the control unit 31 notifies the game server 10 that the result of the second game has been confirmed via the communication unit 33 (S336-2), and the game server 10 communicates the notification. Received via unit 13 (S146).

When the above notification is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the first game has already ended, and if the first game has already ended (that is, the first game and the second game). (If both are completed), the control unit 11 transmits the data of the battle result image G160 to the game terminal 30-2 via the communication unit 13 (S148). The game terminal 30-2 receives the data via the communication unit 33 (S338-2), and based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the battle result image G160 on the display unit 35 (S340-2). In this case, the battle table TBL104 of the user U2 is accessed, and the viewing flag of the battle viewed by the user U2 is updated to "1".

On the other hand, in the game terminal 30-1, after the execution of step S340-1, that is, while the battle situation image G140 is displayed on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30-1, is the element P144 selected by the control unit 31? Monitor whether or not. When the element P144 is selected, as shown in FIG. 24C, the control unit 31 requests the data of the main image G100 from the game server 10 via the communication unit 33 (S342-1), and the game server 10 notifies the game server 10. Receives via the communication unit 13 (S150).

When the above request is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the main image G100 to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 13 (S152). In this case, the control unit 11 determines whether or not there is a battle result that the user U1 has not yet confirmed among the battle results performed by the user U1. That is, the control unit 11 refers to the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 and determines whether or not there is a battle in which the end flag is "1" and the browsing flag is "0". If there is no match result that the user U1 has not confirmed yet, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the main image G100 (see FIG. 2) including the element P103 to the game terminal 30-1, and the user U1 still has. When there is a match result that has not been confirmed, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the main image G100 (see FIG. 11) including the elements P105 and P106 to the game terminal 30-1.

The game terminal 30-1 receives the data of the main image G100 via the communication unit 33 (S344-1), and the control unit 31 displays the main image G100 on the display unit 35 based on the data (S346-1). ). Here, it is assumed that the main image G100 (see FIG. 11) including the elements P105 and P106 is displayed.

While the main image G100 including the element P105 is displayed on the display unit 35, the control unit 31 monitors whether or not the element P105 is selected. When the element P105 is selected, the control unit 31 requests the game server 10 to view the battle result via the communication unit 33 (S348-1), and the game server 10 receives the request via the communication unit 13. (S154).

When the above request is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the battle result image G160 to the game terminal 30-1 via the communication unit 13 (S156), and the game terminal 30-1 transmits the data. Received via the communication unit 33 (S350-1). Then, based on the data, the control unit 31 displays the battle result image G160 on the display unit 35 (S352-1). Steps S156, S350-1, and S352-1 are the same as steps S108, S308, and S310 in FIG. In this case, the battle table TBL104 of the user U1 is accessed, and the viewing flag of the battle viewed by the user U1 is updated to "1".

[4-3] FIG. 25 shows an example of the processing executed when the element P103 of the main image G100 is selected. The display control units 110, 360-1 (360-2) are realized by executing the processing shown in FIG. 25 according to the program. Hereinafter, the process shown in FIG. 25 will be described on the assumption that the user U1 selects the element P103 of the main image G100.

As shown in FIG. 25, first, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30 requests the data of the battle history image G150 from the game server 10 via the communication unit 33 (S360), and the game server 10 requests the battle request via the communication unit 13. (S160). At this time, the ID of the user U1 is transmitted from the game terminal 30 to the game server 10 together with the above request.

When the above request is received by the game server 10, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the battle history image G150 to the game terminal 30 via the communication unit 13 (S162). For example, the control unit 11 refers to the battle table TBL104 of the user U1, acquires the battle history data of the user U1, and transmits the data of the battle history image G150 to the game terminal 30 based on the battle history data. The game terminal 30 receives the data of the battle history image G150 via the communication unit 33 (S362), and the control unit 31 displays the battle history image G150 on the display unit 35 based on the data (S364).

[5. Summary] In the game system 1 described above, the result of the battle between the user U1 and the user U2 is the result of the first match between the user U1 and the CPU and the result of the second match between the user U2 and the CPU. Determined based on. Therefore, since the opponent user U2 himself actually participates in the battle, even if it is an asynchronous battle (even if it is not a real-time battle), the user U1 is simulated like a real-time battle. You can feel the feeling of actually playing against.

Further, in the game system 1, the result of the first match between the user U1 who operates the soccer team of the user U1 and the CPU which operates the soccer team of the user U2, and the soccer of the user U2 and the user U1 who operate the soccer team of the user U2. It is decided based on the result of the second game with the CPU that operates the team. For this reason, it is possible to further improve the feeling of actually playing against the opponent.

Further, in the game system 1, the first game is executed by the game terminal 30 of the user U1, and the second game is executed by the game terminal 30 of the user U2. Therefore, for example, it is not necessary to execute relatively complicated processing via the network N such as peer-to-peer battle processing, so that the load on the network N can be reduced and the configuration of the game system 1 can be avoided from becoming complicated. Can be done.

Further, in the game system 1, when the user U1 requests a match, the opponent of the user U1 is selected from the other users who also request the match, so that both real-time matching and asynchronous match are compatible. This allows the user U1 to experience the feeling of actually playing against another user as if it were a real-time battle. Generally, in an asynchronous match, the user U1 can play the first match at any time, but if the opponent does not play the second match, the final match result is not decided, and the user U1 is the first. You have to wait for two games to be played, but in game system 1, since the opponent is selected from the users who are requesting the game, the second game by other users who are the opponents is also quick. It is expected that this will be done in the above-mentioned waiting time.

Further, in the game system 1, after the result of the first game and the result of the second game are determined respectively, it becomes possible to determine the result of the battle between the user U1 and the user U2 based on them. ..

Further, in the game system 1, if one of the first game and the second game is not completed when a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed after the combination of the users to be played is determined, the game is played. It is determined that the user to be defeated. Therefore, it is possible to urge the competing users to finish the first game or the second game by the above time point. As a result, it is possible to prevent the situation where the battle result is not determined from being left unattended for a long time. Further, according to the present invention, the communication environment becomes unstable during the battle between the user and the computer (the first game or the second game), or the free time ends and the user has to do something else. Even so, the user only has to finish the match by the time the predetermined deadline elapses, thereby preventing the user from being disadvantaged.

Further, in the game system 1, even after the end of the first match and before the match result is determined by the match result determination unit 170, the user U1 ends the second match by the opponent user U2. You can play against new opponents without waiting for.

Further, in the game system 1, since the elements P105 and P106 indicating that the battle result that has not been viewed by the user exists are displayed on the main image G100, the user has the battle result that has not been viewed yet. It will be easier to understand what you are doing and you will not forget to browse the results of the match.

Further, in the game system 1, when there are more than a predetermined number of battle results that have not been viewed by the user, a message image G170 for prompting the user to view the battle results is displayed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the accumulation of battle results that have not been viewed.

Further, in the game system 1, in the battle history image G150, a battle in which the battle result has been determined (for example, element P151-2) and a battle in which the battle result has not been determined (for example, element P151-1) are shown separately. It becomes easier for the user to distinguish and understand these battles. For example, the user can easily grasp the battle result of which the battle result has been decided among the battles related to himself / herself, and can easily browse the battle result of the battle whose battle result has been decided.

In the game system 1, another user who belongs to the league of the same rank as the user is usually selected as an opponent, but when a giant killing event occurs, he / she belongs to a league higher than the user. Another user is selected as an opponent. For this reason, it is possible to provide the user with an interest that an opponent superior to the user may be selected.

Further, in the game system 1, not only the final match result but also the result of the first match or the second match gives rewards to the user and the opponent, respectively, so that the first match or the second match is played. Motivation can be increased. Further, in the game system 1, even if it is determined that the user has won, whether or not to give the user a victory reward and the victory reward to be given to the user are determined by the first to third lottery. Therefore, even if a player wins a match against another user, it is possible to provide the user with an interest that it is not possible to predict whether or not the winning reward can be obtained and what kind of winning reward can be obtained.

[6-2] In the first game, the game may be executed between the user U1 and the control unit 11 (CPU) of the game server 10. For example, in the first game, the operation data of the user U1 is transmitted to the game server 10, and the game image data updated based on the operation data of the user U1 is transmitted to the game terminal 30, so that the display unit 35 is displayed. The displayed match image may be updated. In this case, the first battle execution unit 330-1 is realized by the game server 10.

Similarly, in the second game, the game may be executed between the user U2 and the control unit 11 (CPU) of the game server 10. For example, in the second game, the operation data of the user U2 is transmitted to the game server 10, and the game image data updated based on the operation data of the user U2 is transmitted to the game terminal 30, so that the display unit 35 is displayed. The displayed match image may be updated. In this case, the second battle execution unit 330-2 is realized by the game server 10.
