<Game overview>
The game according to the present embodiment includes a lottery game for allowing a player to acquire a character as an example of the content of the game, and a quest. The lottery game is also called gacha, fluffy, summoning, etc. Quests are also called battle games, dungeons, explorations, missions, and so on.

In this embodiment, there are one or more types of lottery games, each of which has a different name (title). The lottery game can be selected by the player on the menu screen or the like. In the present embodiment, based on an operation instruction (request) for the player to select one lottery game from one or more types of lottery games, the characters to be drawn are randomly selected from the lottery target characters corresponding to the one lottery game. Have the player acquire one or more characters selected for. This lottery game is executed based on the player consuming the consideration associated with the lottery game. Examples of this consideration include paid items (charged items), free items (non-charged items), points, and the like. A paid item is an item that can be acquired by a player through a purchase procedure (payment of cash or electronic money, credit card payment, etc.). Examples of the paid items include paid stones and paid coins. The free item is an item that can be acquired by the player by executing (playing) the game. For example, free items can be obtained as rewards for logging in, clearing quests, completing missions, and so on. Examples of this free item include free stones, gacha tickets, parameter recovery agents, and the like. In addition, the paid items and free items can be used not only for executing the lottery game, but also for various purposes such as recovery of parameters (execution allowable values) described later and continuation of quests. Paid stones and free stones are sometimes called "stones". The points are numerical values used in the game, and are benefits given to the player when recovering parameters, for example. This point may be a numerical value (number) of a game item or the like.

Further, in the present embodiment, there are one or more types of quests, each of which has a different name (title). The quest can be selected by the player on the menu screen or the like. Then, the one quest is executed based on the operation instruction (request) for selecting the one quest by the player from the one or a plurality of types of quests. This quest is executed based on consuming the parameter (consumption parameter) associated with the quest from the parameter (execution allowable value) associated with the player. If the parameter associated with the quest is larger than the parameter associated with the player, the player cannot execute (play) the quest. This parameter is also referred to as stamina, life, action point (AP), battle point (BP), and the like. The parameters associated with the quest may be consumed when the quest ends (clears or retires).

Further, in the present embodiment, a quest is executed in which an enemy character is played against a team composed of one or a plurality of characters owned by the player. In this quest, for example, the player instructs the characters (characters in the team) that make up the team to attack. Further, in this quest, the player aims to reduce the hit points of the enemy character to "0" or less by using the ability values and skills possessed by each character in the team. When the quest is cleared, the player obtains clear rewards such as items (free stones, gacha tickets, etc.), game coins, characters, character experience points, player experience points, and the like. On the other hand, if the quest cannot be cleared, the player selects whether to continue the quest by consuming paid stones, free stones, continue items, etc., or to retire the quest. This continue is to give the player the right to continue playing the quest to the player who could not clear the quest.

<Functional configuration>
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the server device 10.

As shown in FIG. 4, the server device 10 includes storage means 50, execution means 52, change means 54, recovery means 56, and grant means 58 as functional configurations. The storage means 50 is realized by one or more storage devices 28. A functional configuration other than the storage means 50 is realized by the control device 20 executing the game program 14 stored in the storage device 28 or the like.

The storage means 50 has a function of storing player information 50A, character information 50B, lottery game information 50C, quest information 50D, and the like.

The player information 50A is stored for each player in association with the player ID of the player. The player information 50A includes, for example, a player's name and age, owned character information, owned item information, rank information, parameter information, and owned points. The possessed character information includes the character ID, ability value, and skill of each character owned (acquired) by the player. The ability value is, for example, a character's level, hit points, offensive power, defensive power, and the like. The level increases when the character gains character experience points. As the level of a character increases, the hit points, attack power, defense power, etc. of the character also increase. The owned item information includes the number of various items (paid stones, free stones, etc.) owned by the player. The rank information includes a rank indicating the skill level of the player. The rank can be increased (ranked up), for example, when the player acquires the player experience value. For example, the initial value of the rank is "1" and the maximum value is "1000". The parameter information includes the parameter and the upper limit of the parameter. The parameter is a value indicating the current amount of the parameter. This parameter can be recovered as the item (paid stones, free stones, etc.) is consumed, ranked up, and over time. The upper limit of the parameter is a value indicating the upper limit at which the parameter recovers over time. The upper limit value becomes higher as the rank of the player increases, and is, for example, a value obtained by doubling the rank. This upper limit is the same value (same number) as the amount of recovery when the parameter is recovered according to the consumption or rank up of the item. For example, the recovery means 56 adds "40", which is the same value as the upper limit value, to the parameter when the player of rank "20" consumes the item to recover the parameter. On the other hand, when a player with recovery means 56 and rank "500" consumes an item to recover a parameter, "1000", which is the same value as the upper limit value, is added to the parameter. Further, the parameter is restored by 1 every 3 minutes, for example, until the upper limit is reached. The parameter may exceed the upper limit value due to item consumption, rank up, etc., but in this case, recovery of the parameter due to the passage of time or item consumption is prohibited. Owned points include the accumulated value of points given to the player when recovering the parameter.

The character information 50B is stored for each character in association with the character ID of the character. The character information 50B includes, for example, a name, an image, a rarity, an ability value (value from an initial value to a maximum value), a skill, and the like. In addition, the higher the rarity of the character, the more advantageous ability values and skills are set for the game (quest).

The lottery game information 50C is stored in association with the lottery game ID of the lottery game for each lottery game. The lottery game information 50C includes, for example, a name (title), lottery target information, acquired character level, and consideration. The lottery target information includes the character ID of each character constituting the lottery target character group that is the lottery target of the lottery game, and the lottery probability associated with the character ID. For example, there are 100 types of characters constituting this lottery target character group. The lottery probability is the probability that a character will be drawn. For this lottery probability, a low probability (%) is set for a character with a high rarity, and a high probability (%) is set for a character with a low rarity. The acquired character level includes the level (initial level) of the character to be acquired by the player in the lottery game. The consideration includes the number of items and points consumed to acquire one character in the lottery game. For example, a lottery game in which the consideration is a point (special lottery game) has a higher probability of drawing a character with a higher rarity than a lottery game in which the consideration is an item (a normal lottery game).

The quest information 50D is stored in association with the quest ID of the quest for each quest. This quest information 50D includes a name (title), enemy character information, and parameter consumption value. The enemy character information includes an ability value, a drop rate, an acquired character level, a character experience value, a player experience value, and a game coin in association with the character ID of each enemy character appearing in the quest. The drop rate is the probability that the player will acquire an enemy character as a reward for clearing the quest. This drop rate is set to a higher probability for quests with higher difficulty. The acquisition level includes the level (initial level) of the enemy character to be acquired by the player as a reward for clearing the quest. Character experience points, player experience points, and game coins are values that players are allowed to obtain as rewards for clearing quests. The parameter consumption value is a value consumed from the parameter associated with the player when the player executes the quest. This parameter consumption value is set to a different value for each of at least two types of quests. For example, the higher the difficulty level of the quest, the higher the parameter consumption value is set.

The execution means 52 has a function of executing control of the entire game. In the present embodiment, the execution means 52 consumes at least a part of the parameters associated with the player to execute the game (for example, a quest).

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire a character (content) corresponding to the threshold value each time the accumulated value of the given points reaches a plurality of threshold values. For example, the execution means 52 acquires a character that is advantageous to the game (quest, etc.) as the threshold value becomes higher. Specifically, when the accumulated value of points reaches the first threshold value of "10000", the execution means 52 has two characters (character A, character A, whose rarity is "4" according to the first threshold value. Let the player acquire character B). Further, when the accumulated value of points reaches the second threshold value "20000", the executing means 52 has two characters (character C, character D) having a rarity of "5" according to the second threshold value. To the player. Further, when the accumulated value of points reaches the third threshold value "30000", the executing means 52 has two characters (characters E and F) having a rarity of "6" according to the third threshold value. To the player.

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire a character (content) corresponding to the accumulated value of the points given within the predetermined period after the predetermined period elapses. Examples of this predetermined period include 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and the like. For example, when the player logs in, the executing means 52 acquires a character corresponding to the accumulated value of the points given on the day before the login. Further, for example, the execution means 52 makes the character acquired more advantageous for the game (quest, etc.) as the accumulated value of the points given on the previous day is higher. Specifically, when the accumulated value of the points given on the previous day is less than "10000", the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire one character (character G) having a rarity of "3". On the other hand, when the accumulated value of the points given on the previous day is "10000" or more and less than "20000", the executing means 52 causes the player to acquire one character (character H) having a rarity of "4". Further, when the accumulated value of the points given on the previous day is "20,000" or more, the executing means 52 causes the player to acquire one character (character I) having a rarity of "5".

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 executes a normal lottery game that consumes items and a special lottery game that consumes the given points (accumulated value), and the character (content) drawn in each lottery game. To the player. For example, in the special lottery game, the lottery probability of the content having higher rarity is set higher than that in the normal lottery game.

The changing means 54 has a function of changing the upper limit value of the parameter associated with the player. In the present embodiment, the changing means 54 changes the upper limit value of the parameter to a value higher than before the rank rises according to the rise (rank up) of the player's rank. Specifically, the changing means 54 is an upper limit value of the parameter associated with the player when the player's rank rises from "20" to "21" in response to the player's acquisition of the player experience value. Is changed from "40" to "42".

The recovery means 56 has a function of recovering a parameter associated with the player when a predetermined condition is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the recovery means 56 recovers the parameter when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and the higher the upper limit of the parameter, the larger the recovery amount of the parameter. In other words, the recovery means 56 recovers the parameters when the predetermined conditions are satisfied, and the higher the rank of the player, the larger the recovery amount of the parameters. Predetermined conditions include consuming an item acquired by the player (for example, one paid stone or one free stone), increasing the rank of the player (ranking up), and the like.

Further, when the parameter associated with the player is less than the upper limit value, the recovery means 56 recovers the parameter by 1 every time a predetermined time (for example, 3 minutes) elapses.

The granting means 58 has a function of granting a privilege to the player. In the present embodiment, the granting means 58 grants the player a privilege that is more advantageous as the amount of recovery of the parameter is smaller. In other words, the granting means 58 grants the player an advantageous privilege as the player's rank is lower. Examples of this privilege include contents such as points, items, characters, game coins, and lottery rights (lottery tickets) that allow lottery games. Advantageous benefits include, for example, a large amount of content, content with high rarity or high level (for example, characters), and the like. For example, the granting means 58 grants more points to the player as the amount of parameter recovery is smaller (the player's rank is lower).

Further, in the present embodiment, when the player recovers the parameter by consuming a paid item (for example, a paid stone), the granting means 58 recovers the parameter by consuming a free item (for example, a free stone). Give more points than in the case. For example, when the player chooses to consume a paid item and recovers the parameter, the granting means 58 gives twice as many points as when the player chooses to consume a free item and recovers the parameter. Give. Further, for example, when the player chooses to consume the paid item and recovers the parameter, the granting means 58 gives points, and when the player chooses to consume the free item and recovers the parameter, the granting means 58 gives points. You may not give points.

<Processing flow>
(Specific example 1)
FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example (specific example 1) of the flow of processing related to parameter recovery performed by the recovery means 56 and the like in the game system 1 according to the present embodiment. Further, the processing of the following steps is started, for example, at the timing when the player gives an operation instruction to select a menu for recovering the parameter from the menu screen. The order and contents of the following steps can be changed as appropriate.

(Step SP10)
The recovery means 56 refers to the player information 50A and determines whether or not the parameter associated with the player is equal to or greater than the upper limit value. Then, when the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to the process of step SP22. On the other hand, if the determination is negative, the process proceeds to the process of step SP12.

(Step SP12)
The executing means 52 causes the touch panel 32 to display the recovery instruction screen 70.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the recovery instruction screen 70 according to the present embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 6, the recovery instruction screen 70 is provided with a parameter information presentation area 72, a recovery information presentation area 74, a recovery instruction button 76, and a cancel button 78. The parameter information presentation area 72 represents the parameters associated with the player and the upper limit value. The recovery information presentation area 74 represents the consumption amount of the item, the recovery amount of the parameter (the same value as the upper limit value), and the number of possessed items. The recovery instruction button 76 is a button for instructing the recovery of parameters. The cancel button 78 is a button for canceling the recovery of the parameter and returning to the menu screen.

Returning to FIG. 5, the process shifts to the process of step SP14.

(Step SP14)
When the recovery means 56 receives the press of the recovery instruction button 76 (recovery request), the recovery means 56 recovers the parameters associated with the player. Specifically, the recovery means 56 sets the same value as the upper limit value of the parameter included in the parameter information of the player information 50A as the recovery amount, and adds the recovery amount to the parameter associated with the player. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP16.

(Step SP16)
The granting means 58 grants more points to the player as the recovery amount of the parameter in step SP14 is smaller (the rank of the player is lower). For example, the granting means 58 adds points having a value obtained by subtracting the recovery amount from a predetermined value (for example, 2000) to the possessed points (accumulated value of points) in the player information 50A. Specifically, for example, when the recovery amount in step SP14 is "150", the granting means 58 owns "1850", which is obtained by subtracting the recovery amount "150" from the predetermined value "2000". Add to. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP18.

(Step SP18)
The executing means 52 determines whether or not the possessed points (accumulated value of points) added in step SP16 have reached each of the plurality of threshold values. Then, when the determination is affirmative, the process shifts to the process of step SP20. On the other hand, when the determination is negative, the process ends a series of processes shown in FIG.

(Step SP20)
The executing means 52 causes the player to acquire a character corresponding to the threshold value reached in step SP18. For example, when it is determined in step SP18 that the accumulated value of points has reached the first threshold value "10000", the executing means 52 has two characters (character A, character B) corresponding to the first threshold value. ) Is acquired by the player. Further, when it is determined in step SP18 that the accumulated value of points has reached the second threshold value "20000", the execution means 52 has four characters (two characters A) corresponding to the second threshold value. , 2 characters B) are acquired by the player. Then, the process ends a series of processes shown in FIG.

(Step SP22)
The executing means 52 causes the touch panel 32 to display a screen indicating that recovery is impossible. For example, the executing means 52 indicates on the screen that it is not necessary to recover the parameter because the parameter is equal to or greater than the upper limit value. Then, the process ends a series of processes shown in FIG.

(Specific example 2)
In the specific example 1 described above, the case where the player is made to acquire the character corresponding to the threshold value reached in the step SP20 has been described, but the execution means 52 is the selectable character according to the accumulated value of the points given within the predetermined period. Therefore, the character selected by the player's intention may be acquired. In this case, the possessed points of the player information 50A include the accumulated value of the points given to the player in a predetermined period.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example (specific example 2) of the flow of processing related to character acquisition performed by the execution means 52 in the game system 1 according to the present embodiment. Further, the processing of the following steps is started, for example, at the timing when the player gives an operation instruction to log in to the game.

(Step SP30)
The executing means 52 acquires the possession points of the player information 50A. That is, the executing means 52 acquires the accumulated value of the points given to the player in a predetermined period. For example, the executing means 52 acquires the accumulated value of points given in a predetermined period (for example, one day on the previous day) before the timing when the player gives the operation instruction to log in. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP32.

(Step SP32)
The executing means 52 determines a character (selectable character) that can be selected by the player according to the points (accumulated value) acquired in step SP30. For example, when the acquired points are less than "10000", the executing means 52 sets three characters having a rarity of "3" as selectable characters. On the other hand, when the acquired points are "10000" or more and less than "20000", the executing means 52 selects three characters having a rarity of "4" as selectable characters. Further, when the accumulated value of the acquired points is "20,000" or more, the executing means 52 sets five characters having a rarity of "5" as selectable characters. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP34.

(Step SP34)
The executing means 52 displays a selection instruction screen 80 including the selectable characters determined in step SP32.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the selection instruction screen 80 according to the present embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 8, the selection instruction screen 80 is provided with a selectable character presentation area 82 and a selection button 84. The selectable character presentation area 82 represents a plurality of characters determined as selectable characters, and the names and rarities of the characters. The selection button 84 is a button for acquiring the associated selectable character.

Returning to FIG. 7, the process shifts to the process of step SP36.

(Step SP36)
When the execution means 52 receives the press of the selection button 84 (acquisition request), the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire one associated character (selectable character). Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP38.

(Step SP38)
The execution means 52 initializes the possession point of the player information 50A. For example, the execution means 52 updates the possession point to "0". Then, the process ends a series of processes shown in FIG. 7.

(Specific example 3)
In the specific example 2 described above, the case where the character selected by the player (selectable character) is acquired in step SP36 has been described, but the execution means 52 is random (random) in the special lottery game in which points are paid for. May acquire the selected character.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an example (specific example 3) of the flow of processing related to the special lottery game performed by the execution means 52 in the game system 1 according to the present embodiment. Further, the processing of the following steps is started, for example, at the timing when the player gives an operation instruction to select a special lottery game from the menu screen.

(Step SP40)
The execution means 52 causes the touch panel 32 to display the special lottery game execution screen 90.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a special lottery game execution screen 90 according to the present embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 10, the special lottery game execution screen 90 is provided with a lottery target information area 92, an possession information presentation area 94, an execution button 96, and a cancel button 98. In the lottery target information area 92, a character (eyeball character) having a high rarity is represented in the lottery target character group of the special lottery game. In the possession information presentation area 94, the possession points (accumulated value of the given points) of the player are represented. The execution button 96 is a button for executing a special lottery game. The execution button 96 represents the consumption points that are the consideration. The execution button 96 is represented in a form that cannot be pressed when the player's possession points are less than the consumption points. The cancel button 98 is a button for canceling the execution of the special lottery game and returning to the menu screen.

Returning to FIG. 9, the process shifts to the process of step SP42.

(Step SP42)
When the execution means 52 receives the press of the execution button 96 (execution request), the execution means 52 consumes consumption points (for example, 3000 points), which is the consideration for the special lottery game, from the possessed points of the player information 50A. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP44.

(Step SP44)
The executing means 52 draws one or a plurality of characters based on the lottery probability of each of the characters constituting the lottery target character group of the special lottery game with reference to the lottery target information of the lottery game information 50C. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP46.

(Step SP46)
The executing means 52 causes the player to acquire one or a plurality of characters drawn in step SP44 as acquired characters. Then, the process ends a series of processes shown in FIG.

<Effect>

Execution means 52, changing means 54 that changes the upper limit of the parameter according to the increase in rank, recovers the parameter when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and the higher the upper limit of the parameter is, the more the recovery amount of the parameter is. It functions as a recovery means 56 to increase the number, and a granting means 58 to give a privilege to the player as the recovery amount of the parameter is smaller.

According to this configuration, by recovering the parameters, a player having a lower rank can be given an advantageous privilege, and thus the player can be motivated to recover the parameters.

Further, in the present embodiment, the privilege is a point, and the granting means 58 grants the player more points as the recovery amount of the parameter is smaller.

According to this configuration, the lower the rank of the player, the more points can be given, and thus the player can be motivated to recover the parameters.

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire the content of the game according to the threshold value each time the accumulated value of the given points reaches a plurality of threshold values.

According to this configuration, the player can be given a goal of accumulating points, and thus the player can be motivated to recover the parameters.

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 causes the player to acquire the content of the game according to the accumulated value of the points given within the predetermined period after the predetermined period elapses.

According to this configuration, the player can be motivated to recover the parameters within a predetermined period, and thus the game can be activated. In addition, the player can be motivated to log in to the game after the predetermined period has elapsed.

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 executes a special lottery game that consumes the given points, and causes the player to acquire the contents of the game drawn by the special lottery game.

According to this configuration, since the special lottery game can be executed by the points, it is possible to encourage the player to recover the parameters.

Further, in the present embodiment, the predetermined condition is to consume the item acquired by the player.

According to this configuration, it is possible to encourage a player having a lower rank to consume an item, thereby activating the game.

Further, in the present embodiment, the execution means 52 executes a normal lottery game that consumes items, and the special lottery game has a higher probability of drawing contents having a higher rarity than the normal lottery game.

According to this configuration, it is possible to encourage the player to consume the item by recovering the parameters instead of the normal lottery game. In addition, it is possible to make a player having a low rank acquire content having a high rarity, thereby motivating the player to continue the game.

Further, in the present embodiment, the item includes a paid item that can be acquired by the purchase procedure and a free item that can be acquired by executing the game, and the granting means 58 recovers the parameter by consuming the paid item by the player. If you do, you will be given more points than if you recovered the parameters by consuming free items.

According to this configuration, the player can be encouraged to consume the paid item, and thus the game can be activated.
