A specific example will be explained in more detail in the next section.

3. Explanation of various information and terms In this section, various information, terms, etc. handled by the information processing system 1 will be explained.

In this embodiment, the game medium 5 is divided into a first game medium 51, a second game medium 52, a third game medium 53, a fourth game medium 54, and the like. In the present embodiment, the first game medium 51, the second game medium 52, and the third game medium 53 are equipment, accessories, etc. of the player character PC. In particular, the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 mainly indicate the game medium 5 owned by the user. In particular, it is assumed that the first game medium 51 is a weapon and the second game medium 52 is armor.

The third game medium 53 refers to the game medium 5 that the user does not currently possess. Further, the fourth game medium 54 includes material items used for producing or strengthening the first game medium 51, the second game medium 52, and the third game medium 53, or equipment that can be further used in association with these game mediums 5, It shall be a game element such as a decoration.

The user can associate multiple types of game media 5 with the player character PC. For example, the player character PC can be equipped with both the first game medium 51, which is a weapon, and the second game medium 52, which is armor, at the same time. That is, the second game medium 52 can be used in combination with the first game medium 51. Note that "equipping the game medium 5 to the character C" is synonymous with "associating the game medium 5 with the character C".

Here, each of the game media 5 can be associated with at least one of a plurality of attributes. These are elements that define the nature of the game medium 5. The attribute is, for example, the character C's equipment part 500. Further, for example, the attributes are elements having compatibility, such as wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Each game medium 5 has equipment parts 500 set therein. The user can equip each part of the body, such as the head, torso, arm, waist, leg, one hand, both hands, with one game medium 5. The game in this embodiment is executed by combining game media 5 of each attribute.

Here, character C can be equipped with game media 5 of different equipment parts 500 at the same time, but cannot be equipped with a plurality of game media 5 of the same equipment part 500 at the same time (see FIG. 5). For example, character C can be equipped with the second game medium 52 whose equipment part 500 is "head" and the second game medium 52 whose equipment part 500 is "torso" at the same time; It is not possible to equip a plurality of second game media 52 at the same time.

Further, when the equipment part 500 of the first game medium 51 is "one hand", the user can simultaneously equip two first game media 51 whose equipment part 500 is "one hand". On the other hand, if the equipment part 500 of the first game medium 51 is "both hands", the character C cannot equip multiple first game mediums 51 at the same time. In this way, the character C can be equipped with a plurality of game media 5 at the same time, but the types of game media 5 that can be equipped are limited depending on the types and attributes of the game media 5.

Furthermore, the game medium 5 is associated with a performance parameter 6. The performance parameters 6 include attack power, defense power, HP, etc., and these can correspond to each item of the ability parameters 7. If the game medium 5 can be associated with the character C, the ability parameter 7 of the character C is determined based on the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5 associated with the character C.

For example, when the character C is equipped with the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52, the plurality of types of ability parameters 7 associated with the character C are the performance parameters of the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52. 6.

Here, the types of ability parameters 7 that the user should develop vary depending on the user's desired game play style. For example, when aiming to become an "attacker type" who specializes in attacks, the user needs to preferentially increase the ability parameters 7 related to "attack power" and "crit rate." On the other hand, when playing the game with the "tank type" play style of the decoy role, the user needs to improve ability parameters 7 related to, for example, "quickness" and "defense power" in order to fulfill the role of the decoy role. There is. In other words, each play style is associated with at least one type of ability parameter 7 that should be improved. Further, when a plurality of ability parameters 7 are associated with one type of play style, priorities may be set. For example, in the case of an "attacker type", the priority of the ability parameter 7 related to "attack power" is set higher than that of "crit rate".

If the ability parameter 7 of the character C depends on the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5, the user examines which game medium 5 to equip the character C, and selects the game medium 5 that is most suitable for his or her play style. It is necessary to equip character C in combination.

Further, each play style may be associated with related skills. A skill is a special effect that can advance the game advantageously, and a skill is activated in response to a user's operation or regardless of the user's operation. The skill has the effect of changing the value of the ability parameter 7 or the performance parameter 6, for example. The skills associated with each play style are skills that provide an advantageous effect when playing the game with that play style. For example, a skill associated with the "tank type" play style of a decoy is a skill that has the effect of concentrating attacks on oneself. If this skill is used by a user who takes on a quest with a "tank type" play style, it will be able to more effectively fulfill its role as a decoy. In this way, the best skills to use are set for each play style.

Furthermore, the game in this embodiment is composed of a plurality of stages. By clearing the currently available stages, the user can challenge new stages and advance the game. The stages are divided into stages 1 to 7 depending on the difficulty level, for example. Hereinafter, data regarding the user's game progress will be referred to as progress information. That is, the progress information is information indicating the progress of the game by the user. The progress information includes information that can identify stages that can be attempted at present, stages that have already been cleared, and stages that cannot be attempted at present.

Furthermore, each stage includes multiple quests. The quest progresses based on ability parameter 7 or performance parameter 6. Each quest has clear conditions. Clear conditions include, for example, defeating enemy characters such as monsters, and obtaining designated items. A user can obtain material items as a reward during a quest or when clearing a quest. Material items can be used to generate or enhance game media 5. The material items available may vary depending on the quest. The more difficult the quest is included in the stage, the higher the rarity of material items you can obtain. In order to generate the game medium 5 with high rarity, it is necessary to obtain material items with high rarity. Therefore, in order to obtain the game medium 5 with high rarity, the user needs to proceed with the game, take on quests with high difficulty, and obtain material items with high rarity.

4. Operation of Information Processing System 1 In this section, the flow of operation of the information processing system 1 described above will be explained.

4.1 Overview of Information Processing FIG. 3 is an activity diagram showing an example of the flow of processing executed by the information processing system 1. The flow of information processing will be outlined below along this activity diagram.

First, the accepting unit 231 accepts a request to present the game medium 5 based on a user's operation via the input device 4c (activity A101).

Next, the determining unit 235 determines whether the presentation condition is satisfied (activity A102). The presentation condition is, for example, that at least one of the quantity and type of game media 5 owned by the user is equal to or greater than a threshold value. Specifically, for example, the total number or type of game media 5 owned by the user is 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, It is 20 or more, and may be within a range between any two of the numerical values exemplified here. For example, the presentation condition is that each equipment part 500 of the game medium 5 owned by the user is equal to or greater than a threshold value. For example, the presentation condition is that the number of game media 5 that have a rarity of a certain level or higher (for example, 3 stars, 4 stars, 5 stars or higher) among the game media 5 owned by the user is greater than or equal to a threshold value. Presentation conditions include, for example, possessing the game medium 5 that is popular with the user, and referring to the usage rate of the game medium 5 by other users who play the game, and determining whether the user has a high usage rank (for example, 3rd place, 5th place, etc.). (10th place, 10th place), etc.

When the presentation condition is satisfied, the specifying unit 233 refers to the game media information of the game media 5 owned by the user (activity A103). The game medium information is information including the name, rarity, level, value of each type of performance parameter 6, equipment part 500, attached skills, etc. of the game medium 5. Note that each performance parameter 6 is associated with a skill related to that performance parameter 6. In particular, the specifying unit 233 refers to the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5 owned by the user.

Next, the specifying unit 233 specifies, for each ability parameter 7, the combination of game media 5 that gives the highest value of the ability parameter 7 (activity A104). Specifically, the specifying unit 233 specifies a combination of the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 that can be equipped at the same time. For example, the specifying unit 233 specifies, one by one, the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 that most increase the ability parameter 7 for each equipped part 500.

Here, when a skill is associated with the game medium 5, the specifying unit 233 determines the ability parameter 7 that the game medium 5 increases based on the value of the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5 when the skill is activated. Determine the value of In addition, if the performance parameter 6 or ability parameter 7 does not change directly due to skill activation, the ability parameter in the state where the skill is activated will be changed by correcting the performance parameter 6 or ability parameter 7 associated with the skill. Determine the value of 7. In this manner, the specifying unit 233 specifies the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 that are suitable for each of the ability parameters 7, based on the performance parameters 6 of the game medium 5 owned by the user.

Next, the specifying unit 233 specifies the ability parameter 7 that satisfies the condition from among the plurality of ability parameters based on the specified first game medium 51 and second game medium 52 (activity A105). Here, such a condition is, for example, the first specific condition. The first specific condition is, for example, that the ability parameter 7 has the highest value among the ability parameters 7 determined based on the specified combination of game contents 5. For example, the first specific condition is that the determined value of the ability parameter 7 is equal to or greater than a threshold value. For example, the first specification is that the specified first game medium 51 or second game medium 52 has at least one specific skill. According to this aspect, the ability parameter 7 that is a strength when combining the equipment currently owned is specified.

Next, the display control unit 234 displays options 81 corresponding to each of the ability parameters 7 so that the user can recognize them (activity A106). Specifically, the specifying unit 233 causes the display 4a to display play styles corresponding to each of the ability parameters 7 as options 8. This allows the user to select a desired play style from among the multiple play styles presented.

At this time, the display control unit 234 displays the ability parameter 7 specified in activity A105 to the user so that it can be distinguished from other ability parameters 7. For example, when ability parameter 7 of "attack power" is specified in activity A105, the display control unit 234 distinguishes "attacker type", which is the play style corresponding to ability parameter 7 of "attack power", from other play styles. Compare and distinguishably highlight. According to this aspect, the user can confirm the currently recommended play style based on the combination of currently owned equipment.

The reception unit 231 receives the user's selection of the displayed option 8 (activity A107). Next, the specifying unit 233 specifies at least one specific ability parameter 71 selected by the user from among the plurality of types of ability parameters 7 (activity A108). Specifically, the specifying unit 233 specifies the ability parameter 7 corresponding to the play style selected by the user as the specific ability parameter 71.

Next, the identifying unit 233 identifies a game medium 5 having a performance parameter 6 that makes a high contribution to the specific ability parameter 71 from among the game media 5 owned by the user as the first game medium 51 of the specific ability parameter 71. (Activity A109). For example, the identifying unit 233 identifies the performance parameter 6 having the performance parameter 6 that increases the specific ability parameter 71 the most as the first game medium 51 .

At this time, when evaluating the magnitude of contribution to the specific ability parameter 71, the specifying unit 233 evaluates the level of contribution based on the presence or absence or type of skill associated with the performance parameter 6. For example, if the skill has the effect of increasing the specific ability parameter 71, the identifying unit 233 evaluates the level of contribution made by the game medium 5 based on the value of the specific ability parameter 71 after changing due to activation of the skill. . For example, the specifying unit 233 evaluates the game medium 5 having a skill associated with the play style corresponding to the specific ability parameter 71 as the first game medium 51 that has a high contribution to the specific ability parameter 71. Note that the means for specifying the game medium 5 may be the same as the means for specifying the game medium 5 in activity A104.

Next, the specifying unit 233 selects a game medium 5 having a performance parameter 6 whose specific ability parameter 71 satisfies the condition when combined with the first game medium 51 from among the game mediums 5 owned by the user, into a second game medium 5. The medium 52 is identified (activity A110). The condition is, for example, that the game medium 5 has the highest specific ability parameter 71 when used in combination with the first game medium 51. For example, the condition is that at least the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 have a skill that contributes to the specific ability parameter 71. In this manner, the specifying unit 233 specifies at least one first game medium 51 and at least one second game medium 52 from among the game contents 5 owned by the user, based on the specified ability parameter 71. The specific ability parameter 71 that allows the game control to proceed relatively advantageously by using the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 selected in this way is particularly referred to as a first specific ability parameter 711. In other words, the specific ability parameter 71 includes the first specific ability parameter 711.

Next, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 that the user does not possess, based on the specified ability parameter 71 (activity A111). Specifically, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 that can be used in combination with the first game medium 51 and that the user does not own. More specifically, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 available at that time based on the progress information. Further, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 from among the game mediums 5 that are not available to the user at that time and are obtainable on the condition that the game progresses to a specific progress state.

Here, the third game medium 53 is the game medium 5 that improves the specific ability parameter 71 compared to the second game medium 52. Specifically, for example, the third game medium 53 is the game medium 5 that improves the first specific ability parameter 711 compared to the second game medium 52. In other words, the specifying unit 233 selects a game that can be used in combination with the first game medium 51 from among the game contents 5 that the user does not possess, and that improves the specific ability parameter 71 compared to the second game medium 52. The medium 5 is specified as the third game medium 53. According to this aspect, when used together with the first game medium 51 instead of the second game medium 52, the third game medium is optimal for further improving the first specific ability parameter 711, which is the ability parameter 7 that is a strength. Game media 53 is specified.

For example, assume that the first specific ability parameter 711 is ability parameter 7 related to "attack power." At this time, the specifying unit 233 determines that the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 are used in place of the second game medium 52 based on the value of the ability parameter 7 related to "attack power" when the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 are combined. The game medium 5 whose value increases when combined with 51 is specified as the third game medium 53. For example, the specifying unit 233 selects a game medium 5 having a skill that is evaluated to have a higher contribution to the ability parameter 7 related to "attack power" than a skill possessed by the second game medium 52 to the third game medium 52. Specify as. In this manner, the identifying unit 233 identifies the game medium 5 having the performance parameter 6 that contributes more to the specific ability parameter 71 than the second game medium 52 as the third game medium 53 .

Here, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 by attribute based on the specific ability parameter 71. Specifically, for example, the specifying unit 233 specifies the third game medium 53 for each equipment part 500. Here, the specifying unit 233 specifies the attribute of the third game medium 53 having a higher degree of improvement in the specific ability parameter 71 among the plurality of specified third game mediums 53 (activity A112). For example, the specifying unit 233 compares the degree of improvement of the specific ability parameter 71 by the third game medium 53 of each specified equipment part 500, and improves the specific ability parameter 71 more than the other third game medium 53. The equipment part 500 of the third game medium 53 to be improved is specified.

Next, the display control unit 234 displays the equipment part 500 so that the user can select it (activity A113). At this time, the display control unit 234 highlights the equipment part 500 related to the third game medium 53 that improves the specific ability parameter 71 to a high degree among the third game media 53 of each of the identified equipment parts 500. Thereby, the user can confirm which equipment part 500 can be changed to new equipment to improve the ability parameter 7. In response to the user's input via the input device 4c, the receiving unit 231 receives the selection result of the equipment part 500 (activity A114).

Next, the determination unit 235 refers to the user's game progress information (activity A115). Then, the determination unit 235 determines whether the selected third game medium 53 can be obtained by the user at the present time based on the progress information (activity A116). Specifically, for example, the determination unit 235 determines whether or not the stage of the game that the user can currently try includes a quest in which the material items necessary for generating the third game medium 53 can be obtained.

If it is determined that the specified third game medium 53 is currently unavailable to the user, the display control unit 234 displays information including the progress status that makes it possible to acquire the third game medium 53. (Activity A117). For example, assume that the stage the user is currently progressing to is stage 3, and the stage in which the specified third game medium 53 can be obtained is stage 4. In this case, the display control unit 234 displays messages such as "You can get it if you advance to stage 4" or "You can get it if you advance one more stage."

On the other hand, if it is determined that the specified third game medium 53 is currently available, the display control section 234 displays the third game medium 53 so that the user can recognize it ( Activity A118).

In this way, the display control unit 234 allows the user to obtain the third game medium 53 or the third game medium 53 if at least one of the quantity and type of the game medium 5 owned by the user satisfies the conditions. Information indicating the means for obtaining the fourth game medium 54 for the purpose of obtaining the fourth game medium 54 is displayed so that the user can recognize it.

4.2 Details of Information Processing Next, details of the information processing described in the previous section will be further explained with reference to image diagrams.

FIG. 4 is an image diagram showing a list of game media 5 owned by the user. As shown in FIG. 4, the user can have a plurality of game media 5, and can equip the character C with his/her favorite game media 5 to proceed with the game. According to the example of FIG. 4, the number of game media 5 currently owned by the user is ten. At this time, if the presentation condition is "the quantity of game media 5 owned by the user is 10 or more", the determination unit 235 determines that the presentation condition is satisfied, and proceeds to the process of activity A103.

Here, levels are set for the game medium 5 according to the reinforcement stage. The level of each game medium 5 shown in FIG. 4 indicates the current enhancement stage. According to the example of FIG. 4, the current reinforcement level of the first game medium 51a is "1", and the current reinforcement level of the second game medium 52a is "3".

FIG. 5 is an image diagram showing game content information of the first game content 51a and the second game content 52a. The user can enhance the game medium 5 to the maximum level that can be enhanced by using material items and in-game currency. When the game medium 5 is strengthened, the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5 increases, allowing the user to proceed with the game more advantageously. As shown in FIG. 5, each performance parameter 6 may increase as the reinforcement level increases. The enhancement of the game medium 5 is divided into multiple stages from level 1 to level 10, for example, and the higher the level, the greater the degree of increase in the performance parameter 6.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the performance parameter 6 of the game medium 5 equipped to the character C. As shown in FIG. 6, each game medium 5 is associated with a plurality of types of performance parameters 6. The total value of the performance parameter 6 of each item of the first game medium 51 and the performance parameter 6 of each item of the second game medium 52 is determined as the value of the ability parameter 7 of the character C. For example, it is assumed that the performance parameter 6 related to "attack power" of the first game medium 51 is "10" and the performance parameter 6 related to "attack power" of the second game medium 52 is "2". In this case, the ability parameter 7 related to the "attack power" of the character C equipped with these game media 5 is "12". Other types of ability parameters 7 such as "defense power" and "HP" are similarly determined. The value of this ability parameter 7 is then used to progress the game.

Note that at this time, the values of the ability parameters 7 previously associated with the character C may be further added up. Furthermore, when a plurality of game media 5 with different attributes are installed, the values of the performance parameters 6 for each game media 5 are added for each type. The game control unit 232 executes game control based on at least one of the determined ability parameters 7.

FIG. 7 is an image diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display 4a. For example, the display control unit 234 displays the title screen 1100 when starting the game. Title screen 1100 includes, for example, a plurality of operation buttons 1101. The operation buttons 1101 are widgets that accept instructions to display the screen corresponding to each operation button 1101 and the like.

On the selection screen 1300, the user can select a selection means for the third game medium 53 to be presented. In the example of FIG. 9, a state is shown in which the button 1302 for selecting the third game medium 53 based on the play style is selected. Button 1301 may be selected to indicate that a third game medium 53 is to be selected based on the game medium 5 that the user currently owns. When the user presses button 1302, display control unit 234 displays selection screen 1400.

FIG. 10 is an image diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display 4a. In activity A106, the display control unit 234 displays a selection screen 1400 including options 81 corresponding to each of the ability parameters 7. The user can select the option 81 by selecting a play style that corresponds to the ability parameter 7.

Further, the display control unit 234 displays to the user the option 81 corresponding to the ability parameter 7 specified in the activity A105 so as to be distinguishable from the options 81 corresponding to other ability parameters 7. In the example of FIG. 10, options 81 corresponding to ability parameter 7 specified in activity A105, "attacker" and "tank (decoy)" are underlined to suggest recommended play styles. This makes it possible to distinguish it from the other option 8. This allows the user to understand which play style the user can improve the equipment for to advance the game more advantageously. Further, the user can select a desired play style after understanding in advance which play style is optimal when combining the equipment that the user currently owns.

In the example of FIG. 10, a state is shown in which ability parameter 7 related to "attack power" is selected. When the receiving unit 231 receives the selection result, the specifying unit 233 specifies the ability parameter 7 related to “attack power” as the specific ability parameter 71. The identifying unit 233 identifies the third game medium 53 from among the game media 5 that the user does not possess, based on the specific ability parameter 71 (activity A111). Then, the display control unit 234 displays options 82 from which the equipment part 500 corresponding to the specified third game medium 53 can be selected. Thereby, by selecting one of the options 82, the user can issue a display request to confirm the third game medium 53 of the desired equipment part 500 among the plurality of specified third game contents 53. can do.

At this time, the display control unit 234 highlights the third game medium 53 corresponding to the attribute that improves the specific ability parameter 71 to a high degree. For example, the specifying unit 233 highlights the equipment part 500 that corresponds to the third game medium 53 that improves the ability parameter 7 to a higher degree than other third game mediums 53 . For example, the display control unit 234 displays a loss mark 1401 on the option 82 corresponding to the third game medium 53 that has the greatest improvement effect on the ability parameter 7. When the third game medium 53 is associated with a skill that is advantageous when proceeding with the game with the specified play style, the display control unit 234 adds a white star mark 1402 to the option 82 of the third game medium 53. Display. In this way, the display control unit 234 displays the third game medium 53 corresponding to the attribute that has a high degree of improvement in the specific ability parameter 71 among the plurality of specified third game mediums 53 to other third game mediums 53. It is displayed so that the user can recognize it.

Note that in the activity A109, when a plurality of first game media 51 are specified, the display control unit 234 may display the specified first game media 51 so that the user can select them. In the example of FIG. 10, an example is shown in which "one-handed sword F05" and "hammer H03" are specified as the first game content 51. Further, in the example of FIG. 10, a state in which "one-handed sword F05" is selected is shown. When the receiving unit 231 receives the designation of the first game medium 51, the specifying unit 233 specifies the second game medium 52 based on the first game medium 51 selected by the user (activity A110).

FIG. 11 is an image diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display 4a. A screen 1500 shows an example of a screen that is displayed when it is determined in activity A116 that the third game medium 53 of the selected equipment part 500 can be obtained. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the display control unit 234 indicates the means for obtaining the third game medium 53 and the fourth game medium 54, which is a material item for making it possible to obtain the third game medium 53. Suggestion information 1501 and suggestion information 1502 are displayed as information. Thereby, it is possible to easily understand the means for obtaining the third game medium 53 displayed as recommended equipment.

At this time, the display control unit 234 displays in a manner that allows identification of whether the improvement by the third game medium 53 is activated in response to the user's operation or regardless of the user's operation. The improvement by the third game medium 53 that is activated in response to the user's operation is, for example, an improvement effect of the specific ability parameter 71 that is activated when the user presses a specific command during the progress of the quest. In the example of FIG. 11, the effect of "Attack power increases by 7 for 1 minute after performing a special move" corresponds to this effect. The improvement that is activated regardless of the user's operation is, for example, an improvement in which the ability parameters 7 are uniformly improved when the character C is equipped with the third game medium 53. In the example of FIG. 11, the effect of "quickness increases by 15" corresponds to this.

[others]
Regarding the information processing system 1 according to the embodiment described above, the following aspects may be adopted.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the game medium 5 is the equipment of the character C, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the game medium 5 may be the character C itself. If the game format uses a plurality of characters C, game control is executed based on the performance parameters 6 of each character C. Further, in this case, the specifying unit 233 specifies, for example, the character C that contributes most to the specific ability parameter 71 selected by the user as the first game medium 51, and other characters C added to the current team composition. A third game medium 53 that can be used in place of a certain second game medium 52 to advance game control relatively advantageously is identified. In this way, the game control unit 232 executes game control of the game in this embodiment based on at least one of the ability parameters 7 or the performance parameters 6.

When specifying the specific performance parameter 61, if the units are different for each performance parameter 6, the specifying unit 233 may specify the specific performance parameter 61 after correcting the value of each performance parameter 6.

In particular, the specifying unit 233 may specify the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 that are available to the user at the present moment or within a predetermined period from the present moment. For example, if an event is being held at the current time, the predetermined period from the current time is the period until the event ends. Note that when the third game medium 53 whose available period is limited is specified, the display control unit 234 may display the period during which the third game medium 53 is available so that the user can recognize it. This prevents the user from failing to obtain the presented third game medium 53.

The specifying unit 233 may specify the ability parameter 7 that satisfies the second condition from among the plurality of ability parameters 7 based on the specified first game medium 51 and second game medium 52. The second condition is, for example, that the ability parameter 7 has the lowest value among the ability parameters 7 determined based on the specified combination of game media 5. According to this aspect, the ability parameter 7 that is a weakness when combining the equipment currently owned is identified.

Furthermore, in activity A106, the display control unit 234 may display to the user the ability parameter 7 that satisfies the second condition so that it can be distinguished from other ability parameters 7. This allows the user to understand a play style that may not be suited to the current player. Further, the reception unit 231 may be able to receive selection of the ability parameter 7 that satisfies the second condition. In activity A107, when the ability parameter 7 that satisfies the second condition is selected, the specifying unit 233 may specify the ability parameter 7 as the second specific ability parameter 712. The second specific ability parameter 712 is an ability parameter 7 that causes game control to proceed at a relative disadvantage when the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 are selected among the ability parameters 7. That is, the specific ability parameter 71 includes the second specific ability parameter 712. Then, the identifying unit 233 may identify the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 that the user does not possess, based on the second specifying ability parameter 712. As a result, if the user desires a play style that is not suitable for the current one, by presenting the third game medium 53 that improves the ability parameter 7, it is possible to guide the user to play in that play style. .

The identifying unit 233 may identify the second specific ability parameter 712 based on the play style selected by the user. For example, the specifying unit 233 may specify the second specific ability parameter 712 based on the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 specified in the activity A109 and the activity A110. Then, the identifying unit 233 may identify the third game medium 53 from among the game contents 5 that the user does not possess, based on the second specifying ability parameter 712. In this case, the third game medium 53 is the game medium 5 that improves at least one of the first specific ability parameter 711 and the second specific ability parameter 712 compared to the second game medium 52. According to this aspect, the display control unit 234 can present the third game medium 53 that complements the weak ability parameter 7 when used together with the first game medium 51. In other words, the third game medium 53 that can complement the weaknesses of the first game medium 51 better than the second game medium 52 is specified.

In the above embodiment, an example was shown in which the second game medium 52 is specified based on the performance parameter 6 of the first game medium 51 after the first game medium 51 is specified in the activity A109, but the present invention is not limited to this. I can't. For example, after the second game medium 52 is specified in activity A110, the first game medium 51 may be specified based on the performance parameter 6 of the second game medium 52.

In the above embodiment, when specifying the specific ability parameter 71, the performance parameter 6 at the current reinforcement level of the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 is referred to, but the present invention is not limited to this. do not have. The specifying unit 233 may specify the specific ability parameter 71 for the first game medium 51 or the second game medium 52 based on the performance parameter 6 of the level after being enhanced by at least one level. Further, in activity A111, the identifying unit 233 may identify the third game medium 53 based on the performance parameter 6 after the third game medium 53 has been enhanced. Further, the display control unit 234 may display the enhancement stage to be referred to when specifying the specific ability parameter 71 or the third game medium 53 so that the user can select it. As a result, the third game medium 53 is optimal for users who want to become stronger immediately after acquiring the third game medium 53 and users who want to carefully examine the third game medium 53 to be developed with emphasis on the results after training. 53 can be proposed.

In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, an example is shown in which option 81 corresponding to ability parameter 7 specified in activity A105 and option 81 corresponding to other ability parameter 7 are displayed in a selectable manner. However, it is not limited to this. The display control unit 234 may selectably display only the option 81 corresponding to the ability parameter 7 specified in the activity A105.

Further, although the first game medium 51 is a weapon and the second game medium 52 is armor, the second game medium 52 may be a weapon and the second game medium 52 may be armor. good. Further, both the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 may be weapons or armor. In other words, the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 do not need to be distinguished by whether they are weapons or armor.

At least one of the first game medium 51 and the second game medium 52 may not be owned by the user. The specifying unit 233 may specify at least one first game medium 51 and at least one second game medium 52 from among the game contents 5 that the user does not possess, based on the specified ability parameter 71.

Note that at this time, the first game medium 51 may not be in the possession of the user, but may be available at the present time. The specifying unit 233 may specify the game medium 5 from among the game contents 5 available at that time based on the progress information.

In this embodiment, the reception unit 231, game control unit 232, identification unit 233, display control unit 234, and determination unit 235 are described as functional units implemented by the control unit 23 of the information processing device 2.
