Next, the game position setting means 200 of the game device 2 performs the game position setting process.
In the present embodiment, the game position setting means 200 uses, for example, the start position of the game by the user at the start instruction position 311 and the destination at which the user moves by the vehicle at the planned end position 312, and the vehicle set by the car navigation device. The travel route is set as the travel route 313. The game position setting means 200 may acquire and set these data by the touch panel of the operation unit in conjunction with the operation of the car navigation device by the user, for example.
According to FIG. 5A, the game position setting means 200 of the game device 2 is, for example, an event start instruction position based on the map data 310 (FIG. 3) centered on the position acquired from the position acquisition unit 29. The operation unit 25 causes the user to specify 311, the scheduled end position 312, and the travel route 313 from the start instruction position 311 to the scheduled end position 312. The designation of the traveling route 313 can be specified by the user, for example, by displaying the map data 310 on the display unit 26 as a car navigation screen similar to the car navigation device. Furthermore, it is also possible to display some candidates on the car navigation screen and select and specify them by the user. Further, the displayed candidates can be adjusted and specified by the user.

In addition, the game position setting means 200 searches for a route under the same conditions as the route search of a general car navigation device such as "recommended, general road priority, pay priority, distance priority", and displays it as a candidate for a traveling route 313. It is possible. In addition to this, the game position setting means 200 may search for a route based on a game element such as "event priority, item priority, small fish enemy priority, boss enemy priority" and display it as a candidate for running route 313. Good.

In the example of FIG. 5A, in the map data 310, the start instruction position 311 is indicated by a circle with an “S” icon, the travel route 313 is indicated by a thick line, and the scheduled end position 312 is indicated by a circle with an “E” icon. ing.

(Step S102)
Next, the current position acquisition unit 201 performs the current position acquisition process.
In the present embodiment, the current position acquisition means 201 acquires the position information acquired from the position acquisition unit 29 and calculates the position in the map data 310. The position in the map data 310 is the current position. At this time, the current position acquisition means 201 also calculates whether or not the current position is within the travel route 313. The current position acquisition unit 201 stores these calculated data in the storage unit 21 as position information 314.
In the example of FIG. 5A, in the map data 310, the current position set in the position information 314 on the map data 310 is indicated by a car mark icon.

(Step S103)
Next, it is determined whether or not the event generating means 203 has exceeded the start instruction position.
The event generating means 203 reads the position information 314 of the current position from the storage unit 21 and determines whether or not the start instruction position 311 has been exceeded. When the position information 314 is in the traveling route 313 from the start instruction position 311 to the end instruction position, the event generation means 203 determines that the start instruction position 311 has been exceeded and is determined to be Yes. In this case, for example, if the vehicle has entered the travel route 313 even once, the event generating means 203 determines Yes. In other cases, the event generating means 203 determines No.
In the case of Yes, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S104.
If No, the event generating means 203 returns the process to step S102, does not advance the game to the start instruction position 311 and does not generate an event.

(Step S104)
When the start instruction position 311 is exceeded, the event generating means 203 determines whether or not the route has gone out.
The event generating means 203 determines Yes when the position information 314 of the current position deviates from the traveling route 313 by a specific distance or more. When the position information 314 is within the traveling route 313, the event generating means 203 determines No.
In the case of Yes, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S105.
If No, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S106.

(Step S105)
When going out of the route, the game position setting means 200 performs the off-route setting process.
The game position setting means 200 displays "out of the route" or the like on the display unit 26, and changes (resets) the traveling route 313 while keeping the start instruction position 311 as it is. At this time, the game position setting means 200 may automatically reset the traveling route 313. Alternatively, the game position setting means 200 may allow the user to specify the travel route 313 as in step S101. In any case, the game position setting means 200 may keep the start instruction position 311 or reset it.
At the time of these resettings, the game position setting means 200 may continue the event or restart it. This restart may be executed according to the instruction of the user.

(Step S106)
Here, the acceleration posture acquisition means 202 performs the acceleration posture acquisition process.
In the present embodiment, the acceleration posture acquisition means 202 acquires the acceleration information and / or the posture information of the vehicle which is the game device 2 and stores it in the storage unit 21. The acceleration information and / or attitude information includes a value indicating a vehicle state such as the vehicle is backing, accelerating, or the attitude of the vehicle is not horizontal on a sharp curve or a slope.

(Step S107)
Next, the event generating means 203 performs the event progress adjustment process.
The event generating means 203 calculates the estimated time of arrival 315 from the traveling route 313 according to the position information 314 acquired by the current position acquiring means 201.
The event generating means 203 calculates the estimated time of arrival 315 based on the distance between the current position and the scheduled end position 312, the traffic condition, and the like. Alternatively, the event generating means 203 may acquire the estimated time of arrival 315 from a car navigation device or the like.

On this basis, the event generating means 203 adjusts the occurrence of the event according to the estimated time of arrival 315. Specifically, the event generating means 203 adjusts the progress of the game by generating an event so that the event ends at the estimated time of arrival 315, for example. The event generating means 203 can adjust, for example, the type of event, the frequency of occurrence, the direction in which the event occurs, and other parameters related to the event.

More specifically, the event generating means 203 delays the end of the event when, for example, a traffic jam occurs. As the end of this event, for example, the time when the boss character appears is set to the estimated time of arrival 315, and the game is ended. That is, the event generating means 203, for example, causes the user to end the battle with the boss character, end the stage, and produce the ending when the vehicle arrives at the scheduled end position 312, which is the destination. Adjust the occurrence of events. As a result, the game ends when the player arrives at the destination, so that the game progress can be kept consistent. That is, even in a traffic jam or the like, the game does not end in the middle and the user is not dissatisfied, and it is possible to improve the satisfaction level of the user with the game play. That is, it is possible to improve the game quality.

In addition to this, the event generating means 203 makes the appearance of a special monster (hereinafter referred to as “middle boss”) to appear in the middle of the traveling route 313 as an adjustment for the occurrence of the event according to the estimated arrival time 315. You can also adjust the time of day, the frequency of appearance of normal monsters (hereinafter referred to as "normal monsters") that appear along the way, the types of items that can be acquired, and the frequency of appearance.
Further, the event generating means 203 can adjust the parameters of the monsters appearing in the event to make it easier to defeat, or conversely, make it difficult to defeat, and adjust the time required for the progress of the game.
In addition, the event generating means 203 can adjust the interval at which the event is not generated. For example, when the event generating means 203 generates an event that causes a monster to be encountered on the traveling route 313, the event occurrence frequency (encounter) during a specific time or distance so as not to encounter the monster. It is also possible to adjust the rate) lower than usual.

In addition, the event generating means 203 can also generate a compulsory event (forced event) with the passage of a specific time. For example, if the middle boss cannot be defeated or the necessary items cannot be acquired by a specific position in the traveling route 313, the event generating means 203 can separately set an event for causing these to appear.
The event generating means 203 can further change the length of the ending effect, which will be described later. For example, it is possible to adjust the display time, playback speed, etc. of the ending movie.
In addition to these, the event generating means 203 can make all adjustments such that the time of the event becomes longer or shorter.

In summary, the event generating means 203 compares the scheduled end position 312 of the event with the estimated time of arrival 315 to the destination, and if the event is likely to end early, adjusts the event so that the event is prolonged. On the contrary, the event generating means 203 adjusts the event so that the event ends earlier if the scheduled arrival time is 315 before the end of the event.
By these adjustments, it is possible to avoid "slackness" during the progress of the game and motivate the user to continue playing.

Further, the event generating means 203 can adjust the occurrence of the event according to the acquisition status of the flag in the event generated at the set position. This flag is acquired, for example, by moving to a set position, fighting a specific monster, collecting "trace" items, and the like.
Specifically, the event generating means 203 can adjust the occurrence of an event so as to facilitate the acquisition of the flag, for example, when the acquisition of the flag is delayed before the movement to the set position. More specifically, for example, the event generating means 203 can increase the appearance frequency of the "trace" item when the collection of the "trace" item is small with respect to the progress of the game. That is, by collecting the "traces", it becomes easier for the user to feel the progress of the game. Here, the event generating means 203 temporarily sets parameters such as the occurrence probability of the item acquired after the battle with the monster set in the event data 316 and the occurrence probability of the event when moving to a specific position. By changing it, it is possible to execute a process that increases the frequency of appearance.
In addition, the event generating means 203 can execute processing such as adjusting the generation of a normal monster or a middle boss, adjusting the strength of the boss character, and adjusting other parameters in the progress of the game according to the acquisition of the flag. is there.

In addition, the event generating means 203 can change the event according to the acceleration information and / or the attitude information.
Specifically, the event generating means 203 can change the event so that, for example, when the vehicle is backing up, the event is generated in a direction in which a monster or an obstacle approaches from the front. At this time, the event generating means 203 can change the event to be generated, for example, by changing the setting value of the event type set in the event data 316.
Similarly, the event generating means 203 gives a sense of urgency as if the vehicle is being chased by monsters, running water, rocks, etc., for example, when the vehicle is accelerating or the posture of the vehicle is not horizontal on a sharp curve or a slope. It can be changed to an event to enhance.

(Step S108)
Next, the event generating means 203 determines whether or not the event generating condition is satisfied.
As described above, the event generating means 203 can generate events discretely on the traveling route 313 depending on the frequency or condition of occurrence of the event, and / or can continuously generate the events on the traveling route 313. is there. Therefore, for example, when the current position is on the travel route 313, the event generating means 203 acquires a random number value and determines that the event occurrence condition is satisfied with a probability corresponding to the occurrence frequency of the above-mentioned event. .. The frequency of occurrence of this event and the like are adjusted as described above.

In addition to this, the event generating means 203 determines that the event generating condition is satisfied even when the specific condition is met. This specific condition includes the case where the position information 314 is within the specific range of the set position. As this specific range, for example, a range of several hundred meters, a range of positions where landmarks can be seen by the user, and other ranges can be set.
Further, the event generating means 203 can determine that the event generating condition is satisfied even when the event generating means 203 approaches within the specific range of arriving at the scheduled end position 312.
In addition, in the case of an event that is always executed, the event generating means 203 can determine that the event always matches the event generating condition on the traveling route 313.

The event generating means 203 determines Yes when the event generating condition is satisfied. In other cases, the event generating means 203 determines No.
In the case of Yes, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S109.
If No, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S110.

(Step S109)
When the event occurrence condition is met, the event generation means 203 performs the event generation processing.
The event generation means 203 reads out the event data 316 and generates an event of a type corresponding to the above-mentioned event generation condition. As this event, for example, it is possible to make a monster appear with the above-mentioned probability and perform a battle with a player character. In addition, the event generation means 203 can meet NPCs corresponding to the scenario, collect various items including "traces", and fight with middle bosses and boss characters as events. Is.

According to the screen example 500 of FIG. 5B, the event generating means 203 draws a game image of the event based on the moving external image and / or the position information 314, and displays it on the display unit 26 in the vehicle. ..
Specifically, for example, the event generating means 203 overwrites the image data around the vehicle captured by the imaging unit 30 with the necessary objects based on the recognition result data of the positions and types of the surrounding objects. Draw a game image. That is, the event generating means 203 can draw the game screen of the event as augmented reality (AR). In this augmented reality, for example, you can change a landmark building into a monster's nest like an ant mound, a snake monster wrapped around a signal falls, a monster clinging to a radio tower attacks, or the road It is possible to display game images such as a group of monsters attacking from the beginning. In this way, the event generating means 203 can display the game event as if it were occurring in reality. Therefore, it is possible to realize a game with a high sense of presence.
FIG. 5B shows an example in which the monster M is displayed on the see-through type display of the vehicle.

further. The event generating means 203 advances the game based on the other acquired game data 212.
Here, the event generating means 203 transmits the changed difference data of the game data 212 to the server device 1 at the specific timing at the time of setting or playing the game as described above.

(Step S201)
Here, the game information processing means 101 of the server device 1 performs game information processing.
The game information processing means 101 receives the difference data from the game device 2. Then, the game information processing means 101 sets the difference data in the account setting 300 of the account DB 111. As a result, the next time you log in, you can execute the game based on this difference data.

(Step S110)
Here, the event generating means 203 of the game device 2 determines whether or not it is the scheduled end position.
When the current position arrives at the scheduled end position 312 on the traveling route 313, the event generating means 203 determines Yes. In other cases, the event generating means 203 determines No.
In the case of Yes, the event generating means 203 advances the process to step S111.
If No, the event generating means 203 returns the process to step S104 and continues the progress of the game.

(Step S111)
When arriving at the scheduled end position 312, the event generating means 203 performs the ending process.
The event generating means 203, for example, ends the battle with the boss character, performs the process of ending the stage, and sets it in the game data 212. On this basis, the event generating means 203 displays the ending effect on the display unit 26, and outputs the voice from the voice input / output unit 27.
The event generating means 203 transmits the data indicating that the stage has ended and the difference data of the game data 212 described above to the server device 1.
The game information processing means 101 of the server device 1 receives this difference data and stores it in the account setting 300 of the account DB 111.
As described above, the game progress process according to the embodiment of the present invention is completed.

[Effect of the invention]
With the above configuration, the following effects can be obtained.
Conventionally, in a game as described in Patent Document 1, it has been possible to simply execute a game using data of a car navigation device.
However, even if a position game is created in which the game character is moved by using the position information when the actual vehicle or the like is running based on such a conventional game program, the progress of the vehicle or the like is due to traffic congestion or the like. Because it was not constant, the progress of the game was delayed or ended early. As described above, if the progress of the game does not go well, the game cannot be established, and there is a problem that the game quality is significantly reduced.

On the other hand, the game program 210 of the present embodiment is a game program executed by a game device including a storage unit 21 and a display unit 26, and the game device sets a travel route 313 between positions on a map. On the running (progress) of the traveling route 313 according to the game position setting means 200, the current position acquiring means 201 for acquiring the position information 314 of the current position, and the position information 314 acquired by the current position acquiring means 201. It is characterized in that an event is generated in the game and functions as an event generating means 203 that adjusts the occurrence of the event according to the scheduled arrival time 315 calculated from the traveling route 313 set by the game position setting means 200.

With this configuration, it is possible to provide a game program 210 capable of advancing the game in accordance with the progress of the vehicle or the like and enhancing the game quality. That is, by adjusting the frequency of occurrence of events and the like in the case of traffic jams and delaying the ending, it is possible to end the game when arriving at the destination. Therefore, it is possible to realize the progress of the game in accordance with the ride of the user, so that the game quality can be enhanced. As a result, it is possible to give the user an experience that goes beyond simply killing time during the travel time, and to motivate the user to get on the vehicle or the like.

In the game program 210 of the present embodiment, the game device 2 is provided in the vehicle, and the event generating means 203 displays the event on the display unit 26 in the vehicle based on the moving external image and / or the position information 314. It is characterized by drawing a game image.
By configuring in this way and displaying the game image on the display unit 26 in the vehicle, it is possible to provide the user in the vehicle with a game having an enhanced sense of presence. For this reason, it is possible to allow an unscrupulous user to play a highly game-like game according to the traveling route 313 in an automatically driven automobile or the like.

In the game program 210 of the present embodiment, the event generating means 203 also generates an event even when a specific condition is met, and the specific condition is such that the position information 314 is in a specific range from the set position set in the traveling route 313. It is characterized by including being within.
With this configuration, an event can be generated at a set position such as a landmark set in the traveling route 313. Furthermore, it is possible to draw attention to each landmark and the like, and it is possible to draw attention to the outside scenery. Therefore, advertising effects on landmarks and the like can be expected.

In the game program 210 of the present embodiment, the set position is a position where a flag that is a condition for generating an event can be acquired, and the event generating means 203 adjusts the progress of the game according to the acquisition status of the flag. It is a feature.
By configuring in this way, in the game, for example, you can collect flags such as "traces", fight monsters near landmarks, destroy boss characters near the destination, and at the destination. You can have the ending. In this way, since the progress of the game can be sharpened, it is possible to motivate the user to play the game. Further, depending on the selection of the traveling route 313, it is possible to make a difference in the acquisition of this flag, so that the strategic nature of the game can be enhanced.

The game program 210 of the present embodiment further includes an acceleration posture acquisition means 202 for acquiring vehicle acceleration information and / or posture information, and the event generating means 203 further includes acceleration information and / or the acceleration information acquired by the acceleration posture acquisition means 202. The feature is that the event is changed according to the posture information.
With this configuration, the effect of the event can be changed based on the acceleration information and / or the posture information of the vehicle, and the presence of the event of the game can be further enhanced.

[Other Embodiments]
The control means and the processing procedure described in FIGS. 2 to 5 are examples, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. The design of the processing procedure and the like can be appropriately changed without changing the gist of the present invention.

Further, when an event that occurs with the above probability or the like overlaps with an event that starts when passing near a set value such as a landmark on the traveling route 313, the event generating means 203 gives priority to either one. It may be generated at the same time. When giving priority to any of these events, the event generating means 203 can also perform an effect such that one of the events is not generated. For example, the event generating means 203 can be attacked by a zombie, but the zombie can be trampled by the dinosaur and the opponent can be replaced.

In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the current position of the user or the designated position is set as the setting of the game start instruction position 311 has been described.
On the other hand, the start instruction position 311 may be set in conjunction with the state of the vehicle or the game device 2. For example, when the level of automatic driving rises on a highway and automatic driving is possible without the user's hand, the position of entering the highway can be set as the start instruction position 311. On the contrary, when the driving route 313 is set for the road where the level of automatic driving is lowered when the user gets on the road, the place where the user arrives at such a road is set as the start instruction position 311 and the event is held until the position is reached. It is also possible to prevent it from occurring. In these cases as well, it is possible to determine whether or not the event generating means 203 has exceeded the start instruction position 311, as in step S103. Further, the event generating means 203 grasps the state of the vehicle and starts or does not start the event regardless of the set position of the start instruction position 311 according to the level of automatic driving as described above. It is also possible to configure the control to perform such a control.

In the above-described embodiment, an application such as a role-playing game that fights against monsters is described as an example, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it can be applied to various types of games such as action games, shooting games, simulation games, board games, and puzzle games.

More specifically, for example, as a game of another embodiment of the present invention, a monster such as a zombie or an alien chasing after a two-wheeled vehicle or a four-wheeled vehicle is shot with a guncon and a roller of an operation unit imitating a firearm. It may be configured as a defeating horror or science fiction game. Alternatively, it may be configured as an action game in which a gangster, a robot weapon, a dinosaur, a giant insect, or the like is played against while the vehicle is running. Even in this case, a boss character appears near the destination, and it can be configured to be the ending by repelling it.

Further, it is not a mere game, but can be configured as a game in which the driver experiences driving to the destination by, for example, a VIP (Very Important Person) transfer or a parade transfer.
In this case, based on the map data 310, the townscape seen in the parade is superimposed on the actual scenery and displayed as a game screen. At this time, a crowd is drawn along the road, and a game screen in which an SP (Security Police) vehicle is running is drawn and displayed around the vehicle. The vehicle of this SP may be processed by covering another running vehicle with an image. Then, in the vicinity of the destination, the crowd of people who will welcome you can be displayed and used as the ending.
With this configuration, it is possible to support various games and to produce an effect that raises the mood of the user.
It should be noted that these game changes and event setting changes can be realized by those skilled in the art by replacing the game data 212, particularly the event data 316.

Further, the control unit 10, the control unit 20, and the image processing unit 23 may have a built-in RAM, ROM, flash memory, or the like.

-Variation of system configuration In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, an example in which the game program 210 is executed by the game system X composed of the server device 1 and the game device 2 has been described.
However, referring to FIG. 6, it is also possible to execute the game program 210 of the present invention by a single game device 2b. In this case, the game device 2b can store a wide range of map data 310 in the game data 212 as in the case of car navigation. In this figure, the same reference numerals as those in each of the above-mentioned figures indicate the same type of configuration.
On the contrary, the game device 2 executes the functions of merely transmitting and receiving data and outputting the image and sound, and executes the game program 110 of the server device 1, thereby executing the above-mentioned game position setting means 200 and current position acquisition means 201. , The acceleration attitude acquisition means 202, and the event generation means 203 may function.
Further, each of the above-mentioned means may be arbitrarily executed by either the server device 1 or the game device 2, or may be executed in a part or in any combination by sharing the respective functions.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example in which a vehicle such as an autonomous driving vehicle is a game device 2 has been described.
Regarding this, when the game device 2 of the present embodiment is a vehicle, it is possible to use a vehicle such as an amusement park, a roller coaster, a train, a taxi, a bus, or another vehicle driven by a driver. In addition, the present invention can be realized by using an arcade game housing provided in a game center or the like. Alternatively, the game device 2 may be a virtual vehicle operating on the map data 310 in the virtual space.
Furthermore, the game device 2 can be provided not only in a vehicle but also in a vehicle that the user does not directly control, such as an airplane or a drone. In addition, it is also possible to play a game on foot using the game device 2.

Further, in the case of the game device 2 provided with posture and line-of-sight tracking, it is possible to generate an event according to the posture and line of sight of the game device 2 and the user to further enhance the sense of presence in the game.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, an example of displaying a game image on a see-through type display has been described.
However, the display unit 26 does not have to be a see-through type display. For example, as the display unit 26, it is also possible to use the display of the VR goggles type device described above. Also in this VR, the image captured by the imaging unit 30 and the game image can be superimposed and displayed in VR.
Further, when the game device 2 is a portable or stationary device such as a smartphone, a dedicated game machine, or a car navigation device, these displays can be used as the display unit 26. Also in this case, the external image captured by the imaging unit 30 and the game image can be displayed by AR. In addition, when the game device 2 is a vehicle, it is possible to eliminate the window and display the image of the imaging unit 30 for capturing the outside and the game image on the display unit 26 instead of the window. ..
With this configuration, various configurations can be supported.
