(First Embodiment)
The first embodiment of the game processing program, the game processing system, and the game processing method will be described. In the present embodiment, the game is a game in which a battle is performed using a deck as a setting area composed of a game medium. Further, in the present embodiment, the game will be described as an example in which a user plays a single battle as a single player.

The game medium is used for a battle, and is, for example, a card, a character, an avatar, or the like. The game medium belongs to the user, and is acquired, owned, used, managed, and the like by the user. In addition, there are a plurality of types of game media, and the effects exhibited in the game also have a plurality of effects. The opponent is a game medium set by a computer, another user, or the like.

In a game, a deck is created by combining one or a plurality of game media among the game media owned by the user. The deck can be organized by the user. The user can play against enemies appearing in the game and other users by using the game medium set in the deck. In a battle, for example, the total of predetermined parameters of the game medium set in the deck is compared with the total of the fighting power of the opponent to determine the victory or defeat. In addition, the ability of the entire deck is enhanced by the combination of game media. Further, one or a plurality of game media selected from the game media set in the deck 60 are selected to play a battle using the parameters set in the game media, or the game media are appropriately added to the deck 60 to total the parameters. You may change to play against your opponent in real time.

The configuration of the game processing system 10 will be described with reference to FIG. The game processing system 10 includes a game management device 11 and a user terminal 12. The game management device 11 and the user terminal 12 are connected to each other via the network 13.

The user terminal 12 includes a game processing unit 15, a display unit 16, and an operation input unit 17. The game processing unit 15 has a calculation unit, a volatile storage unit, and a non-volatile storage unit, and transmits and receives various information from the game management device 11 via the network 13. Further, the game processing unit 15 executes the game using the information received from the game management device 11 according to the program stored in the non-volatile storage unit. The display unit 16 is a touch panel display, and displays the information output by the game processing unit 15 as an image. The operation input unit 17 receives the operation input on the touch panel display. The game processing unit 15 receives a user's input operation via the operation input unit 17 and performs various processes according to a program recorded in the non-volatile storage unit.

The game management device 11 includes a control unit 20 and a storage unit 21. The control unit 20 has a calculation unit, a volatile storage unit, and a non-volatile storage unit, and performs various calculations according to a game processing program stored in the non-volatile storage unit. Further, the control unit 20 transmits and receives various information to and from the user terminal 12 via the network 13. The control unit 20 includes a game management unit 22, a restriction determination unit 23, and a deck change unit 24 as an area change unit. The game management unit 22 sets the game medium on the deck and manages the progress of the game. The restriction determination unit 23 determines whether or not the deck satisfies the setting restriction regarding the deck. The deck changing unit 24 changes the deck configuration based on the determination result of the restriction determination unit 23.

The game medium information 25 and the user information 26 are recorded in the storage unit 21. The game medium information 25 is recorded for each game medium. The storage unit 21 records game media information 25 of all game media that can be provided to the user in the game. When the user acquires the game medium in the game, the game management unit 22 acquires the game medium information 25 corresponding to the game medium and transmits it to the user terminal 12. The game medium information 25 includes an identifier of the game medium and parameters unique to the game medium.

The identifier of the game medium is an identifier set for each game medium. Parameters specific to the game medium include the name of the game medium, "combat power", "attribute", "rareity", "cost", "special effect", and the like.

Here, the "combat power" is the magnitude of the offensive power and the magnitude of the defensive power of the game medium. In the game medium information 25, the combat power and the like are set to initial values. The higher the fighting power, the stronger the game medium.

There are three or more types of "attributes" that indicate the classification to which the game medium belongs, and the combination of the attributes of the game medium affects the superiority or inferiority at the time of battle. The deck becomes stronger by devising the combination of attributes according to the opponent.

"Rarity" indicates the rarity of the game medium. There are a plurality of classes of rarity such as normal, rare (R), super rare (SR), and double super rare (SSR), and any rarity is given to all game media. As the rarity increases from normal to double super rare, the game medium becomes stronger.

The "cost" is set for the game medium. For example, the more powerful the game medium, the higher the cost.
"Special effect" indicates an effect that the game medium exerts in the game. Special effects have multiple types of effects. The game medium includes a game medium to which a special effect is given and a game medium to which a special effect is not given. Special effects include, for example, special effects and skills of game media. In addition, as one of the special effects, there is an effect that the restrictions on the deck are not applied to the game medium itself in which the special effects are set. The game medium to which this special effect is given (hereinafter, special game medium) can be set in the deck by changing the restrictions on the deck. Changes to deck restrictions include ignoring deck restrictions, relaxing deck restrictions, and so on. When the special game medium and the game medium are described without distinction, they are simply described as the game medium.

The user information 26 is recorded in the storage unit 21 for each user. The user information 26 includes a user identifier, which is user identification information, and a user-specific parameter. User-specific parameters include owned game media information about the game media owned by the user. The owned game media information is associated with the game media information 25. The owned game medium information includes an identifier of the game medium owned by the user and the latest parameters related to the game medium. This parameter is a parameter such as "combat power", "attribute", "rareity", "cost", and "special effect", and is the latest value updated according to the progress of the game. That is, as the game medium grows with the progress of the game, the parameters included in the owned game medium information become higher than the initial value parameters included in the game medium information 25. Further, the user information 26 includes user deck information having an identifier of the game medium set in the user's deck and the position of the game medium in the deck. Further, the user information 26 may include information such as "HP", "experience value", "item", etc., which is given to each user in the game separately from the game medium.

Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the display output to the display unit 16 of the user terminal 12 during the game will be described. The display unit 16 of the user terminal 12 displays a screen including a storage area 51 in which the game medium 50 is stored, in response to a user operation. Further, the display unit 16 displays a screen including the deck 60 on which the game medium 50 is set according to the operation of the user.

When the user acquires the game medium 50 in the game, the game management unit 22 of the game management device 11 acquires the game medium information 25 corresponding to the acquired game medium 50 from the storage unit 21. Further, the game management unit 22 records the acquired game media information 25 in the owned game media information of the user information 26 in association with the storage area 51. For example, the game media information 25 is set in the storage area 51 by being recorded in the owned game media information instead of being recorded in the user deck information.

The deck 60 is provided with a predetermined number of frames 61 in which the game medium 50 can be set. In FIG. 2, nine frames 61 are provided. The game management unit 22 sets the game medium 50 in the frame 61 according to the user's operation on the user terminal 12. When the game medium 50 is set in one of the frames 61 of the deck 60, the information of the game medium 50 is recorded in the user deck information of the user information 26 together with the identifier of the frame 61.

In addition, the user can return the game medium 50 set in the deck 60 to the storage area 51. That is, the user can remove the game medium 50 set in the deck 60 from the deck 60 or replace it with the game medium 50 set in the storage area 51. When the game medium 50 is replaced in the deck 60, the game management unit 22 excludes the information of the game medium 50 excluded from the deck 60 from the user deck information, and uses the information of the game medium 50 set in the deck 60 as the user deck information. Record. In the present embodiment, the replacement of the game medium 50 is limited to a predetermined timing such as before a battle.

The deck 60 is provided with setting restrictions regarding the game medium 50. As one of the setting restrictions regarding the deck 60, there is an upper limit number for each rarity. The number of game media 50 for each rarity that can be set in the deck 60 needs to be equal to or less than the upper limit set for each rarity. For example, one deck 60 can have one double super rare (SSR) game medium, two super rare (SR) game media, and four rare (R) game media. There is no upper limit to the number of normal game media. By setting as many game media 50 with high rarity as possible in the deck 60, the combat power of the deck 60 and the like can be enhanced and the deck 60 can be strengthened. However, as described above, since the upper limit number for each rarity is set in the deck 60, for example, even if many double super rare game media 50 are stored in the storage area 51, those game media 50 are stored. When the setting limit is applied to, the double super rare game medium 50 cannot be set in the deck 60 in excess of the upper limit.

A special effect that does not apply the setting restriction regarding the deck 60 to the special game medium 52 will be described with reference to FIG. The special game medium 52 has a rarity higher than that of the normal game medium 52, and is more valuable to be set in the deck 60 than the normal game medium 50. The game management unit 22 of the game management device 11 is special when the user satisfies the conditions for granting the special game medium 52, such as when the user participates in a predetermined event or when the user starts a predetermined match. The game medium 52 is provided to the user. The start condition of the special effect is, for example, the setting of the special game medium 52 on the deck 60. The game management unit 22 sets the end of the event period, the end of a predetermined match, the passage of a predetermined time from the time when the special game medium is set on the deck 60, the arrival of the upper limit of a predetermined parameter such as combat power, and the like. When the end condition of the special effect is satisfied, it is determined that the special effect of the special game medium 52 has ended.

The deck 60 shown in FIG. 3A has one double super rare (“SSR” in the figure) game medium 50, one super rare game medium 50, three rare game media 50, and a normal game. Four media 50 are set. It is assumed that the maximum number of super rares is two. When the above-mentioned special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60 by the game management unit 22, the restriction determination unit 23 does not apply the above-mentioned upper limit number for each rarity to the special game medium 52. Further, the restriction determination unit 23 applies an upper limit number for each rarity to the other game media 50 based on the possessed game media information of the game media information 25 or the user information 26, and determines whether or not the setting restriction is satisfied. To judge.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 3B, when three special game media 52 having super rare rarity are set in the deck 60, the restriction determination unit 23 determines the number of super rare game media 50 as the number of special game media. Does not include the number 52. For example, the special game medium 52 having the rarity of super rare is not counted as the game medium 50 of super rare, and the number of super rare is counted as "1". Therefore, four super rare game media 50 exceeding the upper limit number, including the special game medium 52, can be set in the deck 60. On the other hand, the combat power of the special game medium 52 is included in the combat power of the entire deck 60, and attributes and other special effects such as special moves are also effective. Therefore, the value of the special game medium 52 is reflected in the deck 60. It is possible to do.

When the end condition of the special effect of the special game medium 52 is satisfied, the restriction determination unit 23 also applies the upper limit number for each rarity to the special game medium 52. The restriction determination unit 23 includes the number of special game media 52 in the number for each rarity and counts them.

The deck changing unit 24 of the game management device 11 does not change the configuration of the deck 60 when the deck 60 satisfies the setting limit. When the deck 60 does not satisfy the setting limit, the deck changing unit 24 changes the configuration of the deck 60 so as to satisfy the upper limit number for each rarity.

The change of the deck 60 after the end of the special effect will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. As shown in FIG. 3B, when the restriction determination unit 23 determines that four super rare game media 50 exceeding the upper limit are set in the deck 60 when the special effect ends, the super rare game medium 50 is set. It is determined that the upper limit is not satisfied.

As shown in FIG. 4, the deck changing unit 24 selects a number exceeding "2", which is the upper limit number of super rares, that is, two super rare game media 50, based on the determination result of the restriction determination unit 23. The game medium 50 to be erased is selected by a predetermined selection method. Then, by excluding the information of the game medium 50 from the user deck information, the game medium 50 is erased from the deck 60. The deck changing unit 24 stores the game medium 50 erased from the deck 60 in association with the storage area 51, and returns the game medium 50 to the storage area 51. Alternatively, the deck changing unit 24 may exclude the game medium 50 to be erased from the deck 60 from the game medium 50 owned by the user without associating it with the storage area 51.

As one of the methods for selecting the game media 50 to be erased, there is a method of selecting the game media 50 that do not satisfy the upper limit for each rarity in a predetermined order. For example, the frame 61 of the deck 60 is assigned frame numbers "1" to "9" in the order of, for example, frames 61A to 61I. In "erasing", the deck changing unit 24 selects and erases a number of special game media 52 that does not satisfy the upper limit in order from the special game media 52 having the largest frame number among the special game media 52. When the special game medium 52 is erased, the user displays the screen of the storage area 51 on the display unit 16 of the user terminal 12 and selects the game medium 50 newly set in the deck 60 from the storage area 51. To do. Here, the case where the special effects of the three special game media 52 end at the same time has been described, but since the special effects are set for each special game medium 52, the timing at which the special effects end differs. You may be.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the formation of the deck 60 and the change of the deck 60 after the end of the special effect will be described together with the operation of the game management device 11.
First, a case where a user organizes a deck 60 will be described with reference to FIG. The user displays a screen including the deck 60 on the display unit 16 of the user terminal 12 and performs a predetermined operation for organizing the deck 60. For example, the game medium 50 set in the deck 60 and the game medium 50 stored in the storage area 51 are exchanged.

The game processing unit 15 of the user terminal 12 accepts the organization operation via the operation input unit 17, and obtains the identifier of the game medium 50 to be removed from the deck 60 and the identifier of the game medium 50 requested to be added to the deck 60. The organization information including the organization information is transmitted to the game management device 11.

The game management unit 22 of the game management device 11 acquires the organization information transmitted from the user terminal 12 (step S1). The restriction determination unit 23 acquires the user deck information of the user information 26 from the storage unit 21 and determines whether or not the deck 60 has the special game medium 52 (step S2).

When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the special game medium 52 is not set on the deck 60 (step S2: NO), the limit determination unit 23 determines that the game medium information 25 corresponding to the identifier of the game medium 50 included in the organization information or the user-owned game. Based on the medium information, the setting limit of the deck 60 is determined (step S4). At this time, the restriction determination unit 23 counts the number of game media 50 for each rarity with respect to the game medium 50 requested to be added to the deck 60 and the game medium 50 set in the deck 60. Then, it is determined whether or not the number of the counted game media 50 satisfies the upper limit number for each rarity. Alternatively, the restriction determination unit 23 determines whether or not the game medium 50 requested to be added to the deck 60 satisfies the remaining number of sheets for each rarity based on the remaining number of sheets for each rarity included in the user deck information. It may be. For example, the game medium 50 requested to be added to the deck 60 is "super rare", and the remaining number of super rare game media 50 that can be added to the deck 60 is recorded as "super rare remaining 2" in the user deck information. In that case, it is judged that the upper limit number for each rarity is satisfied.

Next, the restriction determination unit 23 determines, based on the determination result, whether or not the configuration of the deck 60 when the knitting operation is accepted satisfies the setting restriction regarding the deck 60 (step S5). When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the setting restriction of the deck 60 is not satisfied (step S5: NO), the organization of the deck 60 is rejected (step S7), and new organization information is transmitted from the user terminal 12. Wait. At this time, the game management unit 22 sends a message to the user terminal 12 that the formation of the deck 60 is not accepted.

When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the setting restriction of the deck 60 is satisfied (step S5: YES), the formation of the deck 60 is accepted (step S6). At this time, the game management unit 22 deletes the information of the game medium 50 excluded from the deck 60 from the user deck information of the user information 26, and records the information of the game medium 50 to be set in the deck 60 in the user deck information. If the user deck information includes the remaining number of sheets for each rarity, the remaining number of sheets is updated. The game management device 11 performs the knitting process of the deck 60 every time the knitting information is acquired. The user plays a battle using the deck 60 organized in this way.

On the other hand, when the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the special game medium 52 is set on the deck 60 (step S2: YES), the setting restriction of the deck 60 is applied to the special game medium 52 based on the acquired organization information. Instead, the setting limit of the deck 60 is determined (step S3). At this time, the restriction determination unit 23 counts the number of game media 50 for each rarity for the game media 50 excluding the special game media 52, based on the game media information 25 or the possessed game media information of the user information 26. Then, it is determined whether or not the number of the counted game media 50 satisfies the upper limit number for each rarity. Alternatively, the restriction determination unit 23 determines whether or not the game medium 50 requested to be added to the deck 60 satisfies the remaining number of sheets for each rarity based on the remaining number of sheets for each rarity included in the user deck information. It may be. When the special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60, the remaining number of sheets for each rarity is calculated without including the special game medium 52.

Then, the restriction determination unit 23 determines whether or not the configuration of the deck 60 satisfies the setting restriction based on the determination result in step S3 (step S5). When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the setting restriction is not satisfied (step S5: NO), the knitting operation is rejected (step S7). When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the setting restriction is satisfied (step S5: YES), it accepts the formation of the deck 60 (step S6).

By setting the special game medium 52 in the deck 60 in this way, it is possible to play a match with a combination of the game media 50 that cannot be combined if the special game medium 52 is not set. For example, instead of the normal game medium 50, a special game medium 52 such as rare, super rare, or double super rare can be set in the deck 60. In this case, the deck 60 becomes powerful, and the game can be advanced advantageously.

Next, with reference to FIG. 6, a procedure for changing the configuration of the deck 60 when the special effect ends will be described. The game management unit 22 determines whether or not the end conditions of special effects such as the end of the event and the end of the battle are satisfied (step S10). When it is determined that the end condition of the special effect is not satisfied (step S10: NO), the determination in step S10 is repeated.

When the game management unit 22 determines that the special effect of the special game medium 52 has ended (step S10: YES), the game management unit 22 determines the setting restriction of the deck including the special game medium 52 for which the special effect has ended (step S10: YES). S11). The restriction determination unit 23 counts the special game medium 52 having the rarity of the super rare as the game medium 50 of the super rare.

The restriction determination unit 23 determines whether or not the configuration of the deck 60 exceeds the set limit based on the determination result in step S11 (step S12). When the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the limit of the deck is exceeded (step S12: YES), the deck change unit 24 changes the configuration of the deck 60 so as to satisfy the limitation of the deck 60 (step S13). The deck changing unit 24 excludes the information of the special game medium 52 exceeding the upper limit from the user deck information, and erases the target special game medium 52. On the other hand, when the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the limit of the deck is not exceeded (step S12: NO), the setting configuration is not changed (step S13).

As described above, according to the first embodiment, the effects listed below can be obtained.
(1) As long as the special game medium 52 is set to the deck 60 and the special effect is effective, the setting restriction regarding the deck 60 is not applied only to the special game medium 52. Therefore, the variation of the combination of the game media 50 can be increased as compared with the case where the special game medium 52 is not set. On the other hand, the validity period of the special effect is limited, and setting restrictions are applied to the game medium 50 other than the special game medium 52. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the setting of the special game medium 52 from excessively reducing the difficulty of the game. Can be done. Therefore, it is possible to increase the variation of the combination of game media in the deck 60 while making the game balance regarding the difficulty level of the game capture suitable. By increasing the variation of the combination of the game media 50 in this way, the strategy using the deck 60 is also increased, so that the interest of the game can be further enhanced. Further, when the special effect ends, the deck 60 is configured to satisfy the setting limit. Therefore, the special game medium 52 and the other game medium 50 for which the special effect has ended are set according to the setting of the special game medium 52. It is possible to suppress a large increase in user operations such as replacement with. Therefore, the merit of setting the special game medium 52 can be maintained.

(2) Since the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied to the special game medium 52, it is possible to set the special game medium 52 exceeding the upper limit number only while the special effect is effective. Therefore, as compared with the case where the special game medium 52 is not set, the deck 60 can have a predetermined parameter such as combat power enhanced, and a battle with a new strategy becomes possible. Therefore, the interest of the game can be further enhanced.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment that embodies the present invention will be described. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment only in that a special game medium is given to the group in a game in which the groups compete against each other. Therefore, the same parts are designated by the same reference numerals for details. Explanation is omitted.

The user information 26 recorded in the storage unit 21 of the game management device 11 includes an identifier of the group to which the user belongs. The storage unit 21 may record group information having an identifier of a user belonging to the group for each group.

The game management unit 22 of the game management device 11 executes a group battle game in which groups compete with each other. In a group battle, the user may be divided into an attacker, a defender, and the like within the group. In this case, the attacking user configures the deck 60 using the game medium 50 having a high attack power, and the defending user configures the deck using the game medium 50 having a high defense power.

When the granting condition of the special game medium 52 is satisfied, the game management unit 22 grants a predetermined number of special game media 52 to each group. At this time, the number of the special game media 52 may be changed according to predetermined parameters (experience value, fighting power, etc.) of the group, or may be constant for each group.

As shown in FIG. 7, the game management unit 22 grants the special game medium 52 to a plurality of users (user A and user B in the figure) belonging to the group 63. The special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60 of the user to which the special game medium 52 is attached. Alternatively, the special game medium 52 given to the group 63 may be given to one of the users belonging to the group 63.

The game management unit 22 may determine a user to be given the special game medium 52 in the group according to the role in the battle. For example, the special game medium 52 may be given only to the attacking user, or the special game medium may be given only to the defending user. Alternatively, the game medium 50 having a high attack power may be given to the user of the attacking role, and the user having a high defense power may be given only to the user of the defending role. Alternatively, the restriction determination unit 23 may assign the special game medium 52 in order from the user having the lower predetermined parameter, or may give the special game medium 52 in order from the user having the highest predetermined parameter. Alternatively, the restriction determination unit 23 may select a user to be granted the special game medium 52 by some users or all users belonging to the group.

The special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60 of the user to which the special game medium 52 is attached. The user plays a group battle using the deck 60 in which the special game medium 52 is set. When the special game medium 52 is applied to a group battle in which there are many factors that influence the battle result, the granting of the special game medium 52 is one of the many factors. Therefore, the granting of the special game medium 52 in the group battle is not directly linked to the battle result. Therefore, especially in a group battle, the addition of the special game medium 52 does not disturb the game balance regarding the difficulty level of the game, so that the game balance can be optimized.

As described above, according to the second embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) and (2) described in the first embodiment, the effects listed below can be obtained.
(3) Since a group battle is performed using the special game medium 52, it is possible to perform a battle different from the usual one, and the interest of the game can be enhanced. Further, in a group battle in which there are many factors that influence the outcome, the addition of the special game medium only adds one factor to many factors, so that the balance of the difficulty level of the game can be appropriately maintained.

(Other embodiments)
It should be noted that each of the above embodiments can be changed as appropriate and implemented as follows.
-In the first embodiment, the deck changing unit 24 changes the configuration of the deck 60 so as to satisfy the limitation of the deck 60 (step S23). Specifically, the special game media 52 are erased by the number that does not satisfy the setting limit. Instead of this, when the special effect of the special game medium ends, the replacement of the game medium may be automatically set for the game medium that does not satisfy the setting limitation.

As shown in FIG. 8, the deck changing unit 24 of the game management device 11 selects a game medium 50 that satisfies the limitation of the deck 60 from the user's storage area 51 based on the owned game medium information. For example, a game medium 50 having a rarity lower than the rarity of the game medium 50 that does not satisfy the upper limit is selected. Then, the deck changing unit 24 replaces the selected game medium 50 with the game medium 50 exceeding the upper limit number. At this time, the game media 50 that exceeds the upper limit and is to be replaced may be determined in order from the one having the largest frame number, or may be determined in order from the one having the smallest frame number. Further, the game medium 50 to be replaced may be in the order of increasing or decreasing predetermined parameters, or may be randomly determined. As a result, when the special effect ends, the deck 60 is automatically changed so as to satisfy the setting limit, so that it is possible to reduce the troublesome operation in connection with the setting of the special game medium 52. Therefore, the merit that the special game medium 52 is given to the deck 60 can be maintained.

-In the first embodiment, the deck changing unit 24 changes the configuration of the deck 60 so as to satisfy the limitation of the deck 60 (step S23). Specifically, the special game media 52 are erased by the number that does not satisfy the setting limit. Instead of this, when the special effect of the special game medium ends, the user is proposed to the user a game medium that satisfies the deck limit for the game medium that does not satisfy the setting limit, and a predetermined number of the proposed game media are used. The user may be allowed to select the game medium.

As shown in FIG. 9, the deck changing unit 24 transmits information on the game medium 50 that satisfies the setting limitation of the deck 60 in the user's storage area 51 to the user terminal 12, and displays the display unit of the user terminal 12. 16 is output as display 62. The user selects a number or an arbitrary number of game media 50 specified in the game management device 11 from the displayed game media 50. The game processing unit 15 of the user terminal 12 transmits the identifier of the selected game medium 50 to the game management device 11. The game management unit 22 of the game management device 11 replaces the game medium 50 selected by the user with the game medium 50 that exceeds the upper limit for each rarity, and sets the deck 60.

Further, at this time, for example, when the user does not own the game medium 50 that satisfies the limitation of the deck 60, the control unit 20 can propose the purchase of the game medium 50 or satisfy the setting limitation. You may propose to ask another user who owns such a game medium 50 for support. By proposing the game medium 50 newly set in the deck 60 by the game management device 11 in this way, the time and effort of the user for searching for another game medium can be saved, and the operation surface associated with the setting of the special game medium 52 can be saved. It is possible to reduce the annoyance in. In addition, a game medium according to the user's intention can be set in the setting area.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. Special effects are not limited to effects that are not subject to deck-related setting restrictions. For example, the special game medium 52 has no cost, or has a special effect such that the total cost of the deck 60 does not include the cost, in place of or in addition to the special effect to which the upper limit for each rarity is not applied. You may be doing it. The "cost" is set for the game medium. For example, the more powerful the game medium, the higher the cost. The maximum deck cost is set for the deck, and the total cost of the game media set in the deck must be less than or equal to the maximum deck cost. The total cost of the game medium 50 set on the deck 60 must be less than or equal to the user's maximum deck cost. For example, the cost of a game medium having a large fighting power tends to be high, but if the game medium having a high fighting power is preferentially selected, the total cost may exceed the maximum deck cost. In that case, the deck 60 is set to include a game medium having a small fighting power. Since the special game medium 52 is not included in the total cost, the special game medium 52 having a high cost is set or the other game medium 50 set in the deck 60 has a high cost only while the special effect is effective. It is possible to make things. In this case as well, when the special effect of the special game medium 52 ends, the deck changing unit 24 changes the deck 60 so as to satisfy the limitation. Therefore, as compared with the case where the special game medium 52 is not set, it is possible to make the deck 60 in which a predetermined parameter such as combat power is enhanced. Therefore, the interest of the game can be further enhanced.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. The special effect is not limited to this as long as the setting restriction regarding the deck 60 is not applied. For example, the special game medium 52 may have both special effects to which the upper limit is not applied and special effects to which the cost is not applied. In this way, by setting the special game medium 52 on the deck 60, the game can be advanced advantageously.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. Alternatively or additionally, the special game medium 52 may have special effects to which other deck configuration restrictions do not apply.

As shown in FIG. 10, there is a deck strengthening effect (tower effect) as an effect of increasing the combat power of the deck 60. The deck enhancement effect is a predetermined parameter of the game medium 50 of the deck 60 according to the number of game media 50 of the same type as the game medium 50 in the storage area 51 with respect to the game medium 50 set in the deck 60. It is an effect of adding a part or all of. As a result, predetermined parameters such as the attack power and the defense power of the game medium 50 of the deck 60 can be increased. The game medium 50 of the same type is, for example, a game medium 50 having the same card design, character, and avatar. As one of the setting restrictions of the deck 60, there is a restriction regarding this deck enhancement effect. Specifically, the number of game media 50 that can be increased by adding parameters to one game medium 50 set in the deck 60 is limited to, for example, "3" or less. When the special game medium 52 is set to the deck 60, the restriction determination unit 23 of the game management device 11 does not apply the setting restriction of the deck 60 regarding the deck enhancement effect, and stacks the game media 50 of the same type without limitation. Tolerate. The game medium that can be enhanced by adding parameters to the special game medium 52 may or may not have a special effect as long as it has the same design as the special game medium 52.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. In place of or in addition to this, the special game medium 52 can exchange itself with the game medium 50 of the storage area 51 or the game medium of another user who requested support at any time during the battle. May have. When the special game medium 52 has a special effect capable of exchanging itself with another game medium, when the restriction determination unit 23 receives the exchange instruction and the identifier of the game medium 50 to be exchanged from the user terminal 12, the restriction determination unit 23 receives the exchange instruction and the identifier of the game medium 50 to be exchanged. The battle is paused and the special game medium 52 is exchanged for the designated game medium 50. If the exchange can be performed at an arbitrary timing in this way, for example, after the predetermined parameters such as the attack power and the defense power of the special game medium 52 are reduced, the predetermined parameters are reduced instead of the special game medium 52. No game medium 50 can be set. Then, since the battle can be performed using the game medium 50 in which the predetermined parameters are not reduced, the game can be advanced advantageously.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. Alternatively or additionally, the special game medium 52 may have a special effect that does not apply a predetermined action from the opponent to itself. For example, when the special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60, the control unit 20 avoids a specific attack from the opponent, or lowers the defense power of the opponent when attacking from itself. In this way, the game can be advanced advantageously using the deck 60 in which the special game medium 52 is set.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. Alternatively or additionally, the special game medium 52 may have the effect that the lower limit on the deck 60 does not apply. For example, the limitation regarding the deck 60 may be that a predetermined parameter such as the total cost is a predetermined value or more. When the special game medium 52 is set on the deck 60, the control unit 20 determines, for example, the total cost of the game media 50 other than the special game medium 52 when the restriction determination unit 23 acquires the organization information of the deck 60. Determine if it is greater than or equal to the value. If the limit determination unit 23 determines that the total cost is less than the predetermined value, it rejects the formation of the deck 60, and if it determines that the total cost is equal to or more than the predetermined value, it accepts the formation of the deck 60.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a special effect to which the upper limit number for each rarity is not applied. Alternatively or additionally, the special game medium 52 may have special effects that relax the restrictions on the deck 60. For example, when the special game medium 52 is set on the deck 60, the parameters of the special game medium 52 may be counted in a direction that is less likely to be restricted by the setting limitation. Specifically, when the super rare special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60, the number of the super rare game media 50 does not include the number of the special game media 52 in the above embodiment, but it is more rare than the super rare. An upper limit for each rarity may be applied as a low "rare" game medium, or an upper limit for each rarity may be applied for two "rare" cards. Alternatively, the special game medium 52 having a cost of "4" may be included in the total cost as "2" when set in the deck 60. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the setting limit while imposing a setting limit on the special game medium 52, so that the strategy using the deck 60 is increased, the fun of the game is further enhanced, and the game balance is optimized. Can be done.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 has a certain special effect until the end condition of the special effect is satisfied. Alternatively or additionally, the special effect may be varied from the start to the end of the special effect. For example, the upper limit for each rarity is not applied in the period immediately after the special game medium 52 is set in the deck 60, and is counted as a rarity lower than the rarity of the special game medium 52 in the next period. You may do so. Further, in the next period, it may be counted as the rarity of the special game medium 52. In this way, it is possible to develop the game advantageously using the special game medium 52, and it is possible to set a time limit. Therefore, the strategy using the deck 60 is increased, and the interest of the game is enhanced. , The game balance can be optimized.

-In each of the above embodiments, before the game medium 50 is set on the deck 60, it is determined whether or not the limitation on the deck 60 such as the upper limit number for each rarity is satisfied. Instead of this, after setting the game medium 50 to the deck 60, it may be determined whether or not the restriction regarding the deck 60 is satisfied. Then, when the restriction determination unit 23 determines that the restriction regarding the deck 60 is not satisfied, the deck change unit 24 changes the deck 60 so as to satisfy the restriction. For example, the deck changing unit 24 erases the game medium 50 that exceeds the limit, automatically sets the replacement of the game medium 50, proposes another game medium 50, and the like.

-In each of the above embodiments, the setting area in which the special game medium is set is described as a deck in which the set game media are combined to play a battle, but if the area is such that the special game medium can be set, the area other than the deck It can also be applied to. For example, when a game medium such as a character or an avatar can move within a predetermined range, the predetermined range may be set as a setting area. In this case, when the special game medium is set within the predetermined range, the game can be played without applying the restriction regarding the predetermined range to the special game medium. Therefore, the user can play the game in a mode different from the usual one.

-In each of the above embodiments, the special game medium 52 to which the special effect is given has a rarity higher than that of the normal. In addition to rarity, the special game medium 52 should be applied if it has excellent predetermined parameters such as combat power, level, and skill, and is highly valuable to be set in the deck 60.

-The parameters unique to the game medium 50 include, but are limited to, the name of the game medium, "combat power", "attribute", "rareity", "cost", "special effect", etc. is not. The parameters unique to the game medium 50 depend on the content of the game, and may include some or all of the above parameters and may include other parameters. Further, the setting limit regarding the deck 60 is set according to the unique parameter of the game medium 50. For example, when the unique parameter of the game medium 50 includes "level", the upper limit may be set for each level. In this case, the special game medium 52 is not subject to this level of restriction.

-In each of the above embodiments, the information of the game medium owned by the user is recorded in the user information 26, but the recording destination of the information of the game medium owned by the user is not limited to this. If it is associated with the information of the game medium owned by the user, it may be included in the game medium information 25.

-In each of the above embodiments, the control unit 20 and the storage unit 21 of the game management device 11 may be provided in the user terminal 12. In this case, the control unit 20 of the user terminal 12 executes a game processing program stored in the non-volatile storage unit to provide a native game which is a game that does not go through another application such as a browser. Alternatively, the game management device 11 and the user terminal 12 may each be a hybrid game in which a part of the processing is carried out.
