Further, a user terminal device operated by a user who has not installed the game may be set as the specific terminal device. In this case, a notification regarding the invitation to the game may be sent to the set specific terminal device. Further, when the game is installed on the specific terminal device according to this notification, a predetermined privilege may be given to the user who operates the specific terminal device.

Also, the gacha is based on the distance between the request terminal device and a predetermined specific position (for example, a building, an event venue, a tourist spot), not the distance between the devices of the specific terminal device and the request terminal device. A table may be selected.

Further, when the gacha request is made, the server device may determine the specific position described above by lottery or the like.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, each user may be able to specify a specific user. For example, a user may be able to set his or her friend user as a specific user. In this case, for example, the farther the distance between the requesting user and the specific user (friend user of the requesting user) (so-called social distance is secured), the more advantageous gacha table (for example, a character with high rarity). Gacha table with a high probability of winning) may be selected.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example in which a gacha table is selected based on the distance between the devices of the specific terminal device and the requesting terminal device at the closest position is described, but the present invention describes this. Not limited. For example, one specific terminal device may be selected by lottery from a plurality of specific terminal devices.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, for example, when the triangle formed by the line connecting the two specific terminal devices and the request terminal device has a predetermined shape (for example, an equilateral triangle), the request terminal device has a gacha. When is executed, an advantageous gacha table may be selected.

Further, the selected gacha table may be different depending on whether the request terminal device exists in a specific area (for example, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo) or in another area. In this case, the specific area and its number are determined, for example, by lottery.

Unlike the above-described embodiment, the medium lottery executing means is advantageous to the user as the distance between the devices is closer (or the distance between the devices is longer) between the current position of the specific terminal device and the current position of the requesting terminal device. You may select a different gacha table.

Further, the specific terminal device may be provided with a rank. Then, when the requesting terminal device exists near a specific terminal device having a high rank (for example, within 100 m), an advantageous gacha table may be selected.

Further, for example, when a specific user is an officially certified user of the game, the closer the requesting user and the certified user are, the more advantageous gacha table may be selected.

Further, the terminal device operated by the authorized user may be set to the specific terminal device at all times. On the other hand, the terminal device operated by the authorized user may be set to the specific terminal device only at a predetermined timing by his / her own will or by the operation of the game operator. In this case, for example, when the certified user is a celebrity such as an entertainer, it is possible to prevent the location information of the certified user from being always known.

Further, the associated gacha table may be different for each specific terminal device. In this case, for example, the gacha is executed based on the gacha table associated with the specific terminal device closest to the request terminal device. Further, in this case, the specific terminal setting means can perform a predetermined lottery to set the specific terminal device and select any one of the gacha tables from a plurality of types of gacha tables.

Further, in the above embodiment, an example is described in which a gacha table in which the winning probability of the character differs depending on the positional relationship between the specific terminal device and the request terminal device is used, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, by switching the gacha table or replacing the gacha table according to the distance between devices, the winning probability of a character with high rarity increases gradually or gradually, and it has specific attributes such as water attribute. It is conceivable that it will be easier for other characters to win.

Further, the attribute of the character that is easy to win in the gacha may change depending on the place where the specific terminal device exists in the real space. For example, when a specific terminal device exists near the water, it is possible to easily win a character having a water attribute.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the specific terminal setting means is the terminal device of the candidate user, and only the terminal device in which the GPS receiver (position acquisition function) is set to ON in the game is used as the specific terminal device. You may set it.

On the other hand, the specific terminal setting means may output a signal instructing the game program of the specific terminal device that the GPS receiver is set to OFF to set the GPS receiver to ON.

Further, when the candidate user sets the GPS receiver to ON according to the instruction signal from the specific terminal setting means, some benefit may be given. Further, if an instruction is given to the terminal device in which the GPS receiver is turned on but the game application is not started and the instruction is followed, some benefit may be given.

Further, in the above embodiment, an example in which a lottery is executed every hour and a specific terminal device is set is described, but the specific terminal setting means sets the specific terminal device every time a gacha request is made. You may. In this case, the specific terminal device is different for each requesting user.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the specific terminal setting means may set the specific terminal device at each timing when a predetermined event (for example, a specific gacha event, a professional baseball game) is executed.

Further, in the above embodiment, an example is described in which a specific user is selected and the user terminal device operated by the specific user is set in the specific terminal device, but the user terminal is not selected and the specific user is not selected. A specific terminal device may be selected from the devices.

In addition, the user can specify which type of character is included in the gacha table and / or how the winning probability changes according to the positional relationship between the specific terminal device and the request terminal device. May be good. For example, the content specified by the user may be reflected in the selection of the gacha table from among the cases where the winning probability of the character with high rarity is high and the winning probability of the character specified by the user is high.

When multiple users specify which type of character is included in the gacha table, a new table may be created by combining multiple gacha tables, or a plurality of characters may be created in advance. A gacha table created by combining the gacha tables of the above may be prepared.

Further, one gacha table may be selected from a plurality of gacha tables based on whether or not there is a user terminal device operated by a friend within a predetermined distance (for example, within 1 km) from the user terminal device.

Further, regardless of the specific terminal device, a plurality of equilateral triangles are formed based on the arrangement positions of the three user terminal devices when the gacha is requested by the users of the three friends. One gacha table may be selected from the gacha tables of.

Further, the requesting user may be able to make a friend request to a specific user who operates the specific terminal device. For example, the requesting user may be able to make a friend request to the specific user by making a gacha based on the information about the current position of the specific user.

Further, the gacha table of a specific user who operates the specific terminal device may be given preferential treatment as compared with the gacha table of another user. In this case, for example, the winning probability of the ultra-rare character in the gacha table associated with the specific user may be higher than that in the case where the character is not the specific user.

In this case, for example, the associated gacha table may be given preferential treatment in the order of a specific user, a requesting user having a short distance to the specific user, and a requesting user having a long distance to the specific user.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example in which one gacha table is selected from a plurality of gacha tables based on the distance between the devices between the specific terminal device and the request terminal device is described. Is not limited to this. For example, the medium lottery executing means may rewrite the type of the character in the gacha table and / or the winning probability thereof according to the distance between the devices.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the specific terminal setting means may generate information for notifying the specific user that the user terminal device operated by the specific terminal device is set in the specific terminal device. As a result, the notified specific user can recognize that he / she is a specific user.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the specific terminal setting means may set a candidate user who owns a predetermined character (for example, one character selected from the ultra-rare characters) as the specific user. ..

Further, although an example in which the specific user does not receive any benefit is described in the above embodiment, the specific terminal setting means gives the specific user a privilege (for example, an experience value, a super-rare character, a stone, or a special one. The right to execute gacha based on the gacha table) may be granted.

Further, in the above case, as the specific terminal setting means, the moving distance of the specific terminal device after being set in the specific terminal device, the positional relationship between the specific terminal device and the request terminal device, and the specific terminal device are set. The content of the privilege may be changed according to at least one of the number of requesting users for which the gacha is executed later.

In this case, for example, depending on the positional relationship between the specific terminal device and the request terminal device, the content of the privilege given to the specific user is changed in the order of a rare character, a super rare character, and a super super rare character. You may.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the winning probability changing process may not always be executed, but the winning probability changing process may be executed when a predetermined condition is satisfied. Predetermined conditions include, for example, that the user has cleared a predetermined quest, that the user has turned on the function related to the winning probability change process, that the user has won a predetermined lottery, SNS (social networking service), and the like. Follow the official account at, and cite and repost information posted by other users.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, a user who operates a terminal device within a range capable of short-range wireless communication with the own terminal device without using a GPS receiver may be selected as a candidate user. ..

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the specific user is a user other than himself / herself, but the specific user may be himself / herself. In this case, since the requesting user is a specific user, a privilege that is more advantageous to that user (for example, the right that the user can arbitrarily select one character from the ultra-rare characters) is given. You may.

Further, the user who wants to request the gacha may be able to grasp the current position of the specific user before executing the gacha. In this case, the user who wants to request the gacha can decide whether or not to request the gacha after confirming the current position of the nearest specific user. Further, a predetermined lottery may be executed before the gacha is requested, and the current position of a specific user may be displayed when the lottery is won.

Further, the predetermined timing after the time when the gacha is requested is not limited to the time when the gacha is requested, and may be any timing until the gacha is executed.

Further, unlike the above-described embodiment, the current position of the specific terminal device may be the position when the specific user last logs in. Further, when the specific user logs in to the game, the specific terminal device may send information about its current position to the server device. At that time, a benefit such as a privilege may be given to the specific user for the transmission of the information regarding the current position from the specific terminal device.

Further, the transmission of information regarding the current position of the specific terminal device may be conditional on posting the position information to the SNS at the same time. In this case, the information posted on the SNS can be used to attract customers such as events.

The location information of the user terminal device may be acquired based on the MAC address at the access point of the wireless LAN. In this case, it is possible to determine whether or not the terminal devices are in close proximity to each other, such as being in the same building.

Further, unlike the above embodiment, when the access point of the wireless LAN has a specific MAC address, the gacha table of the requesting user may be given preferential treatment over the gacha table of another requesting user. The specific MAC address may be determined by, for example, a lottery by a server device, or may be arbitrarily set by the game operating company.

Further, the game medium selected by the gacha is not limited to the character, and may be any item used in the game, such as an item such as a weapon or equipment.

Further, in the above embodiment, an example in which the present invention is usually applied to a gacha is described, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the present invention may be applied to 10 consecutive gachas in which 10 gachas are continuously performed by one gacha request and 10 characters are elected. In this case, the same specific terminal device may be set through the 10-series gacha, or the specific terminal device may be set for each gacha in the 10-series gacha.

Also, instead of 10 consecutive gachas where 10 gachas are performed with one gacha request and 10 characters are elected, 5 gachas are continuously performed with one gacha request and one gacha. The present invention may be applied to 10 consecutive gachas in which two characters are won for each.

Further, the present invention may be applied to 10 consecutive gachas in which one gacha is performed by one gacha request and 10 characters are simultaneously elected.
