Next, the flow of proxy play of the game by the game system 1 will be explained using the flowchart of FIG.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a screen displayed on the UI unit 202 of the terminal 20 (first terminal) of the first player (first user, player requesting substitute play). As shown in FIG. 6, map information of a range within a certain distance from the current position is displayed on the screen based on the position information of the first player's terminal 20. Icons indicating spots S1 to S6 are displayed on the map. A certain range of area is set around each spot, and when the player's terminal 20 enters the area, it is associated with that spot and requested to play a proxy game (proxy play), or is associated with that spot. You can accept the substitute play that is offered to you. Note that unless the player's terminal 20 enters the area of the spot, operations such as requesting or accepting proxy play cannot be performed, but even if the player's terminal 20 does not enter the area, the spot icon displayed on the map By performing an operation of selecting , it is possible to display information about the spot.

When the first player moves near any spot (for example, S1) on the map and enters the set area (step S101), the first player becomes able to perform operations associated with spot S1. (Step S102). Specifically, when the first player's terminal 20 moves to a position that satisfies the positional conditions set in advance for the spot S1, a request for proxy play from the terminal 20 is accepted. At this time, for example, the icon indicating the spot S1 on the screen may be blinked or a message may be displayed to notify that the operation is now possible.

When the first player specifies a spot S1 on the screen, a menu M of possible operations at the spot is displayed, as illustrated in FIG. The operation menu M includes the spot ID of the selected spot (for example, S1) and buttons for selecting actions that can be performed at the spot (in the example of FIG. 6, "Item GET" (B1), ``Request'' (B2) and ``Acceptance of proxy play'' (B3)) are displayed. When the first player performs an operation to select "request for proxy play" from the menu, the first presentation unit 114 displays a quest (game) that allows the player to request proxy play at the spot, as illustrated in FIG. A list (list L1) is displayed (step S103). At this time, quests that the first player attempted in the past but could not clear may be displayed in a list based on the play history of the first player. Further, the display may be based on the play history of players other than the first player. That is, a list of quests may be presented to the first player based on the history of the proxy games associated with the spot S1 being played with reference to information stored in the spot management table 100b. For example, for each quest, the number of times proxy play has been accepted and cleared in the past (predetermined period up to the present) in spot S1 (proxy clear count), the number of proxy players (players who have accepted proxy play), recent proxy play Information such as the date and time when the was cleared may be displayed. In the example of FIG. 7, it is displayed that "Quest A" has been cleared five times within one week by the substitute player at the spot. These pieces of information may be displayed in response to a long press on each quest name (B4 to B6) displayed in the list. Further, from the list, only the games that can be executed by the first player (can be requested on behalf of the first player) may be displayed, or the games that can be executed may be prioritized and displayed in order. Alternatively, games that the first player has attempted in the past but have not been able to clear may be displayed in a way that allows them to be identified. By selecting and long-pressing each quest name in the list, you can search for quests that are the same as or equivalent to the selected quest at other spots located around the first player (for example, those displayed on the map). Information on proxy requests (such as the number of proxy clears) at other spots within the range may also be displayed.

The first player selects the quest for which he/she requests proxy play, and also specifies the reward that will be given to the player who accepted the proxy play if the quest is cleared by the player who accepted the proxy play. For example, when you select a quest to request on behalf of the list L2 on the screen illustrated in FIG. 7, a list of game media B7 to B9 (for example, items and in-game value) that can be specified as rewards is displayed, as illustrated in FIG. (L2) may be displayed. Further, the list may display the number of proxy acceptances at the spot when each reward is specified and information on the most recent acceptance date and time. In addition, for proxy play of a quest where the same or equivalent game content as the specified reward is set as a reward, other spots located around the first player (for example, other spots within the range displayed on the map) ) may be displayed, such as the number of proxy clears and information on the date and time of the most recent clear. In the example of FIG. 8, it is shown that the quest for which "Item A" was set as a reward at spot S1 was cleared five times within one week. When the first player specifies a quest (for example, quest A) to request on the screen illustrated in FIG. 7 and sets a reward (for example, item A) on the screen illustrated in FIG. 8, the screen illustrated in FIG. 9 appears. Is displayed. When the first player performs an operation such as tapping the "request for agency" button B10 on the screen illustrated in FIG. 9, the reception unit 111 of the game server 10 accepts the agency request (prescribed instruction) from the terminal 20. (Step S104). The proxy request includes information on the first player making the request, the quest for which proxy play is requested, and the reward for completing the quest. The contents of the accepted proxy request are stored in the spot management table 100b in association with the spot S1, which is the spot that satisfied the location condition when the proxy request was accepted. Further, the stamina of the first player stored in the play status management table 100a is consumed for playing the game.

From the home screen of the terminal 20, the first player may be able to check the list of quests for which proxy play has been requested and the status of each proxy request (requesting/accepted/cleared). "Requesting" is a state in which the target quest is associated with a certain spot and a proxy play request has been made, but the request has not been accepted by other players. “Accepting” means that a specific other player has performed an operation to accept the proxy play request for the target quest, but the other player has not yet cleared the quest. "Cleared" is a state in which the target quest has been played after being accepted by another player and has been cleared. Note that the status is not limited to these, and there may be other statuses. In addition, as the first player selects each quest, the details of the substitute play for each quest (name of the substitute player, clearing status, character used by the substitute player, time played, time required to clear the quest) (number of turns, play video, etc.) may be displayed. This allows the first player to know how the quest for which he/she has requested proxy play has been played by other players, which can be used as reference for his/her own play.

When accepting a proxy request associated with spot S1, the accepting second player (second user) needs to be near spot S1. That is, when the second player's terminal 20 (second terminal) satisfies the position condition set in advance for the spot S1, the control unit 112 causes the second player to be associated with the spot S1. control is performed to permit acceptance of the substitute play (step S105). On the second player's terminal 20, operable spots on the map are displayed in an identifiable manner, and the second player selects a spot (for example, spot S1) and selects "Accept proxy play" on the menu screen illustrated in FIG. ”, a list L3 of quests that can be accepted at the spot is displayed, as illustrated in FIG. 10. The second player can specify quests B11 to B13 to act on his behalf from the list. The list may display information such as the quest name, reward details, requesting player name, and agency request status (requesting/accepting/cleared). Furthermore, based on the progress of the second player's game data, if the second player is not in a playable state in his own game data but accepts play on his behalf, quests that are playable are displayed so that they can be identified. It's okay. In the example of FIG. 10, the second player's own game data indicates that "Quest A" is a quest that is not yet playable. This makes it easier to understand quests that are not playable in the player's own game data (for example, quests that do not meet the conditions for playing), thereby promoting acceptance of proxy play. Further, the player may be controlled so that he or she cannot accept the proxy play requested by the user.

In addition, regarding the quest selected by the second player, the request is set to perform the same or equivalent quest on behalf of other spots located around the second player (for example, other spots within the range displayed on the map). Reward information may also be displayed. In addition, for proxy play of quests where game media is set as a reward that is the same as or equivalent to the reward set in the selected game, requests for proxy play where the same or equivalent reward is set at other spots on the map The information may be displayed.

When the second player accepts the proxy play, the second player can play the target quest only within a predetermined time (for example, 24 hours). If accepted, the proxy game is added to the list of games that can be played by the second player in the play status management table 100a, and can be played anywhere within a predetermined time. Note that while the second player is accepting the proxy play (within a predetermined time during which the second player can play the proxy play), other players cannot accept the proxy play.

When the second player plays the target quest, the updating unit 113 updates the first player's game progress stored in the play status management table 100a (step S106). Specifically, when the second player clears the quest for which he requested proxy play, the status of the quest is updated to "cleared" and the proxy play history is updated. Also, if necessary, the stamina value etc. will be updated as the quest is cleared. The updating unit 113 also updates the status of the agency request stored in the spot management table 100b.

Furthermore, the updating unit 113 performs a process of granting, to the second player who has cleared the target quest, a reward set for the quest by the player who made the proxy request (step S107). Further, a clear reward set in advance for the quest may also be given to the second player. Furthermore, the second player's stamina value and the like associated with playing the game are updated as necessary. Note that if the second player is unable to clear the request within the predetermined time, the proxy request returns to a status that can be accepted again at the original spot.

Note that the reception unit 111 may control whether or not to accept a new proxy request depending on the number of proxy games registered in association with a spot (the number of proxy games requested). For example, an upper limit on the number of agency requests that can be registered for each spot (for example, 10 for spot A, 5 for spot B, etc.) may be set. Further, if the spot where the first player is trying to make a proxy request cannot accept the request, the second presentation unit 115 sends an instruction to another spot that can accept the proxy request based on the first player's position. Spot information may be presented to the first player. That is, information about other spots near the first player's current location that can accept proxy requests for the game may be displayed on the terminal 20. For example, if a limit is set for the number of proxy requests that one player can register at one spot (for example, up to 5 requests), and the limit is exceeded, information on other spots that have not reached the limit for that player will be displayed. It may also be displayed. In addition, common to all players, regardless of who has registered the proxy request, there is a limit to the number of proxy requests that can be registered at one spot, and if the limit is exceeded, other spots where requests can be registered will be placed. Information may also be displayed. Specifically, for example, if the number of registration requests for agency requests has reached the upper limit (10) at spot A where the first player satisfies the location condition, the first player may request to be registered at other spots located around the first player (e.g. Displays information about spots (other spots within the range displayed on the map) where the number of registered agency requests has not reached the upper limit. As an alternative method of displaying spots, for example, display control may be performed such as blinking an icon representing a spot on the map. Furthermore, for the spots on the displayed map, the upper limit number of registrations for each spot and the current number of registrations (eg, 4 registered items/upper limit of 10 items) may be displayed.

Furthermore, the reception unit 111 may update the criteria for determining whether or not the proxy request can be accepted when the first player satisfies a predetermined condition. Specifically, when the number of spots where the first player's terminal 20 satisfies the location condition within a predetermined period (cumulative number) reaches a predetermined number, the upper limit number of agency requests that can be accepted at the spot (judgment It is also possible to increase the standard. Note that if the proxy request cannot be accepted, a message or the like indicating that the request is not accepted may be displayed. Specifically, for example, each time a player performs a predetermined operation (check-in operation) for a predetermined number of spots while satisfying the location conditions, the upper limit number set for the player may be updated. . More specifically, the upper limit number may be increased by one each time a player checks in to one spot.

Further, the third presentation unit 116 of the game server 10 displays information on spots located within a predetermined range (within a certain range from the current position) based on the position of the first player's terminal 20 on the first player's terminal 20. You may also do so. Note that "within a certain range" may be defined by the actual distance from the terminal 20, or by the distance on the map screen displayed on the terminal 20 (for example, the range displayed on the screen). Good too. Further, the third presentation unit 116 may present information about spots that satisfy a predetermined first condition among spots within a certain range. For example, the spots to be displayed may be controlled according to the number of proxy games for each spot within a certain range (the number of registered proxy requests, the number of cleared proxy requests, etc.). Further, the third presentation unit 116 may control the spots to be displayed based on the history of games played by proxy games associated with each spot within a certain range. For example, based on the history of proxy play of quests (quests with the same ID) corresponding to the quest for which the first player requested proxy play, a spot where the number of acceptances (or number of clears) of the corresponding quest is relatively high, , a spot where the corresponding quest was played by proxy within a predetermined period (recently) may be displayed with priority.

Further, the fourth presentation unit 117 of the game server 10 may present information on the proxy game registered in association with the spot to the second player's terminal 20 in a manner based on the second player's game data. . For example, among the proxy requests registered in association with a spot, quests that are not playable in the second player's own game data, but are playable if the second player accepts the proxy play, are displayed in an identifiable manner. You can also do this. For example, quests that the second player has not yet fulfilled the conditions for playing due to insufficient progress in the game may be displayed so as to be identifiable.

In addition, the fifth presentation unit 118 of the game server 10 provides the second player's terminal 20 with a spot that satisfies a predetermined condition (second condition) among the spots that are within a certain range from the current position of the second player's terminal 20. Information about a substitute game associated with a spot may be displayed. Note that "within a certain range" may be defined by the actual distance from the terminal 20, or by the distance on the map screen displayed on the terminal 20 (for example, the range displayed on the screen). Good too. For example, it may be defined as within a certain distance (for example, within 1 km) from the current position of the second player's terminal 20, or it may be defined as the range displayed on the map on the screen of the terminal 20.

Further, the fifth presentation unit 118 displays a proxy game selected by the second player from among proxy requests associated with spots within a certain range from the current location of the second player's terminal 20, and It may also be possible to display information regarding rewards set for proxy games associated with spots existing within a certain range from the current location of the terminal 20. For example, when the second player specifies a quest to act on behalf of, information on rewards set for the same quest is displayed from among the substitution requests registered in association with other spots on the map.

(Reservation function)
If the player is located far from a spot, the player may be able to select a spot on the map and reserve a proxy request at that spot. Specifically, by selecting a spot on the map and selecting "Reserve Request" from the menu screen, you can secure the right to make a proxy request at that spot within a predetermined time (for example, within 10 minutes). If the user does not enter the area of the spot within the predetermined time, the right will expire (the request slot will be released).

The player who made the proxy request (first player) and the player who accepted the request (second player) may be able to make friend requests to each other.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, if the player is unable to complete the game by himself and is stuck, he can request someone else to help him by moving to a specific location. This makes the game even more interesting by giving you not only the option of completing the game on your own, but also the option of completing it with the help of others by moving to the appropriate location. can. Furthermore, by having players move to various locations, effects on nearby commercial facilities can also be realized.
