-Functional configuration of the control unit 30 of the terminal device 3 The control unit 30 of the terminal device 3 executes a storage medium inserted in the terminal device 3 or a game program downloaded (installed) in the storage unit 31 of the terminal device 3. By doing so, it functions as a route candidate requesting means 301, a calculating means 302, a determining means 303, a communication means 304, and an information processing means 305.

The route candidate requesting means 301 disembarks from the boarding position (an example of the starting position of the quest in the game (the mission given to the player character of the user or the purpose set by the user)) from the map information based on the operation of the user. Make a route candidate request to calculate multiple route candidates to a position (an example of the end position (destination) of a quest in the game). Specifically, for example, when there is an operation by the user, the route candidate request means 301 generates a route candidate request signal and transmits it to the calculation means 302, the communication means 304, and the information processing means 305. The route candidate request signal is a signal that triggers the calculation means 302 to execute the calculation of a plurality of route candidates.

When the calculation means 302 receives the route candidate request signal, the calculation means 302 calculates a plurality of route candidates from the boarding position to the disembarkation position in the map information, and determines the calculated route candidate information as the determination means 303, the communication means 304, and the information. It is transmitted to the processing means 305.

The determining means 303 selects whether or not there is an operation of selecting one of the plurality of route candidate information, and when there is an operation of selecting one of the plurality of route candidate information, which route candidate information is selected. Determine if there was an operation.

Further, when the route candidate information is selected by the user's operation from the plurality of route candidate information, the determination means 303 is the information of the route that the user wants to pass through the selected route candidate information (passage route information). Is transmitted to the information processing means 305.

For example, when the communication means 304 receives the information of the plurality of route candidates calculated from the calculation means 302, the communication means 304 transmits the virtual space generation request signal and the received information of the plurality of route candidates to the server device 2. Further, the communication means 304, for example, provides account information of the user or the terminal device 3, location information (GPS information, etc.), orientation information of the terminal device 3, surrounding environment information, each operation signal, and information about the game as needed. And sends it to the server device 2.

The information processing means 305 is a server for various information such as a non-player character such as a character (player character) or an enemy character arranged in a virtual space, a game medium position information such as an item, and data of an object corresponding to the game medium. When received from the device 2, each received information is stored in the storage unit 31.

Further, the information processing means 305 includes various request signals such as a route candidate request signal, a button icon for transmitting various request signals to the calculation means 302, the communication means 304, and the information processing means 305, and various selected route candidate information. Information for displaying a user interface such as a button icon for transmitting information to the communication means 304 and the information processing means 305 on the liquid crystal screen 330 is generated. According to this information, the graphic processing unit 33 draws an image of the user interface.

For example, the image of the user interface to be drawn includes the screen shown in FIG. Specifically, FIG. 5 shows any route (route) of the two route candidates A and B by touching the icon 150 (A) or the icon 151 (B) in the map information displayed on the game screen. Shows a screen for deciding whether to pass.

The information on the friendship level obtained this time is accumulated on the information (cumulative value of the friendship level obtained before boarding the taxi this time), a new cumulative value of the friendship level is calculated, and the friendship level management table. Is updated (step S35).

Subsequently, the privilege granting means 205 determines whether or not the accumulated value of the friendship degree associated with the user ID in the updated friendship degree management table T5 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value (step S36). When it is not determined by the privilege granting means 205 that the accumulated value of the friendship degree associated with the user ID in the friendship degree management table T5 is equal to or more than a predetermined value (step S36: NO), the process returns to step 31.

On the other hand, when it is determined by the privilege giving means 205 that the accumulated value of the friendship associated with the user ID in the friendship management table T5 is equal to or more than a predetermined value (step S36: YES), the privilege giving means 205 is described as described above. One of the privilege information stored in the privilege information table T7 is given to the player character or the terminal device 3 corresponding to the user ID (step S37).

Next, the privilege granting means 205 resets the cumulative value of the friendship degree corresponding to the user ID to 0, and updates the friendship degree management table T5 (step 38).
