Abstract

[Problem] To organize a group of player characters without much effort in a battle game using multiple player characters. [Solution] A character group is organized including one or more player characters selected by the player from among multiple player characters owned by the player. Before executing a battle between the character group and an enemy character, the character group is compared with the enemy character to determine the possibility that the character group can defeat the enemy character. If it is unlikely to win, one or more player characters are reselected and the selection result is presented to the player as a new group. [Selected Figure] Figure 19

Description

The present invention relates to a technology that assists in organizing groups of multiple characters in a fighting game that uses multiple characters.

The use of smartphones not only as communication devices but also as game devices is becoming common. Network games that are popular on smartphones are played by accessing a platform built on a game server from the smartphone. Network games often focus on character development, cooperation and competition with other players, and the collection of cards and items.

Some network games allow players to use multiple characters. In such games, players often select one or more player characters from the characters they own (hereafter referred to as "player characters") to organize a group. In such games, when a player organizes a group, a recommended group organization (hereafter referred to as "recommended organization") may be presented to the player (see Patent Document 1).

JP 2016-32545 A

The recommended formation presented by the game of Patent Document 1 is formed based on a comparison between the parameters of enemy characters and the parameters of player characters in a group when a player fails to clear a stage a specified number of times. According to this specification, the recommended formation is presented only to players who fail to clear a stage, so the number of players who can enjoy the benefits is limited. That is, in the game of Patent Document 1, players first form their own groups and take on a stage, and a recommended formation is presented to players who fail to clear the stage. Therefore, even if a player finds the task of forming a group annoying, the recommended formation is not presented until the player fails to clear the stage. Therefore, players who successfully clear a stage or players who want to be free from the trouble of forming a group before challenging a stage cannot enjoy the benefits of the invention of Patent Document 1.

The present invention was completed based on the recognition of the above problem, and its main objective is to provide a game in which a player can select one or more player characters from those they own to form a group, and in which the player can easily form a group without much effort.

An information processing device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a group formation unit that forms a character group including one or more player characters selected by the player from among a plurality of player characters owned by the player, a match execution unit that executes a match between one or more player characters included in the character group and a predetermined enemy character, a win/lose prediction unit that compares parameters of one or more player characters included in the character group with parameters of the predetermined enemy character to determine whether the character group satisfies a predetermined disadvantage condition before the match and presents the result to the player, and a group presentation unit that reselects one or more player characters from among the plurality of player characters owned by the player and presents the selection result to the player as a new group.

An information processing device according to another aspect of the present invention includes a group forming unit that forms a character group including one or more player characters selected by the player from a plurality of player characters owned by the player, a team forming unit that forms a team including a plurality of players based on a request from a first player, a match executing unit that executes a match between one or more player characters included in each character group formed by the plurality of players belonging to the team and an enemy character, and a win/loss prediction unit that, assuming that a second player is formed in the team, compares parameters of one or more player characters included in each character group of the plurality of players belonging to the team including the character group of the second player with parameters of the enemy character to calculate the possibility that the team will win against the enemy character, and discloses the calculation result to the second player before the team is formed.

The present invention makes it easier for players to organize groups without much effort.

In the network game of this embodiment (hereafter referred to as "Game L"), players play alone or in "teams" consisting of 2-4 players to fight enemy characters that attack one after another. In a battle against an enemy character, a player selects a character linked to a letter (hereafter referred to as a "letter character") and inserts it into a blank space in a letter frame set on the screen. Other players also take turns inserting letter characters. When a player completes a word registered in the database, an attack on the enemy character is launched. To participate in Game L, a player needs to register with the game server.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the hardware configuration of a game system 100.
In the game system 100, a plurality of game terminals 104a, 104b, 104c, ... 104n (hereinafter, collectively referred to as "game terminals 104" when collectively referred to or when no particular distinction is made) are connected to a game server 102 via the Internet 106. The game terminals 104 in this embodiment are assumed to be smartphones. The game terminals 104 may be portable game consoles or general-purpose computers such as laptop PCs. The game terminals 104 and the Internet 106 are connected wirelessly, but may also be connected by wire. A unique ID called a player ID is given to each game player in advance. The game server 102 provides a game to each game terminal 104.

FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of the game system 100.
As described above, the game system 100 includes a game server 102 and a game terminal 104. Each component of the game terminal 104 and the game server 102 is realized by hardware including a computing unit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and various coprocessors, a storage device such as a memory or storage, and a wired or wireless communication line connecting them, and software stored in the storage device and supplying processing instructions to the computing unit. The computer program may be composed of a device driver, an operating system, various application programs located in higher layers thereof, and a library that provides common functions to these programs. Each block described below shows a functional block rather than a hardware-based configuration.

The game server 102 may be configured to include a web server, and the game terminal 104 may be configured to include a portable communication terminal with a web browser installed thereon.

(Game Server 102)
The game server 102 includes a communication unit 110 , a data processing unit 112 , and a data storage unit 114 .
The communication unit 110 is responsible for communication processing with the game terminal 104 via the Internet 106. The data storage unit 114 stores various data. The data processing unit 112 executes various processes based on the data acquired by the communication unit 110 and the data stored in the data storage unit 114. The data processing unit 112 also functions as an interface between the communication unit 110 and the data storage unit 114.

The data processing unit 112 includes a player management unit 146 and a game control unit 116 .
The player management unit 146 includes a player registration unit 148 and a team formation unit 150 .
The player management unit 146 manages the play information of each player. The player registration unit 148 accepts player registration from the game terminal 104 via the communication unit 110. When player registration is requested, the player registration unit 148 assigns a player ID to the player and registers the player in the data storage unit 114. Player registration is automatically requested when a game module of game L is installed in the game terminal 104. The team formation unit 150 forms a team consisting of multiple players (described in detail later).

The game control unit 116 cooperates with the game control unit 166 of the game terminal 104 to control the progress of the game. The game control unit 116 determines the outcome of a match with an enemy character based on the parameters of the character character. The parameters of the character character include the corresponding character, attributes, skills, etc.

The game control unit 116 includes a turn control unit 128, a character reception unit 130, a character setting unit 132, an attack activation unit 134, a group formation unit 136, a match execution unit 138, a win/loss prediction unit 140, a group presentation unit 142, a fortune control unit 143, a character management unit 145 and a group determination unit 144.
The turn control unit 128 grants execution rights (hereinafter referred to as "turns") to each player in turn. A player who has been granted a turn is hereinafter referred to as a "turn player." On the other hand, a player who has not been granted a turn is hereinafter referred to as a "non-turn player."

A player has multiple character sets. The character reception unit 130 receives the selection of a character set to be inserted into a character frame (described below) during a battle. The character setting unit 132 receives an operation to insert a character set into a character frame. The character setting unit 132 also sets a character frame for each battle. The attack activation unit 134 activates an attack against an enemy character in conjunction with the formation of a character string in the character frame.

The group formation unit 136 forms a group including one or more character characters in response to a player's request (details will be described later). The battle execution unit 138 executes a battle between a character character and an enemy character and determines whether or not the battle will be won. The battle prediction unit 140 determines whether or not the formed group can clear a quest based on parameters such as the character character's attributes and skills, corresponding characters, etc. A quest is a mission given to the player as the game progresses. The group presentation unit 142 presents recommended formations from the character characters owned by the player. The group determination unit 144 determines whether or not there are any vacancies in the formed group. The fortune control unit 143 is responsible for processing related to "fortune" described later. Details of "fortune" will be described later. The character management unit 145 changes various parameters such as the level of the character characters.

The data storage section 114 includes a game data storage section 118 , a player data storage section 120 , a character data storage section 122 , a word data storage section 124 , and a damage data storage section 126 .
The game data storage unit 118 stores a game program. The player data storage unit 120 stores various data related to the player (described later in relation to FIG. 3). The data related to the player includes information related to the player ID, the player name, and the character characters owned. The character data storage unit 122 stores data related to the character characters (described later in relation to FIG. 6). The word data storage unit 124 stores data related to words that a player creates in cooperation with other players (described later in relation to FIG. 7). The damage data storage unit 126 stores data defining the correlation between the length of a word and damage inflicted on an enemy character (described later in relation to FIG. 8).

(Gaming terminal 104)
The game terminal 104 includes a user interface unit 168 , a communication unit 160 , a data processing unit 162 , and a data storage unit 164 .
The user interface unit 168 accepts operations from the player via the touch panel, and is responsible for processing related to the user interface, such as image display and audio output. The communication unit 160 is responsible for communication processing with the game server 102 and other game terminals 104 via the Internet 106. The data storage unit 164 stores various data. The data processing unit 162 executes various processes based on data acquired by the user interface unit 168 and the communication unit 160 and data stored in the data storage unit 164. The data processing unit 162 also functions as an interface for the user interface unit 168, the communication unit 160, and the data storage unit 164.

The data processing unit 162 includes a game control unit 166 .
The game control unit 166 controls the progress of the game in cooperation with the game server 102. The game control unit 166 of the game terminal 104 may be formed as a software module downloaded from the game server 102 as a part of the functions of the game control unit 116.

The communication unit 160 acquires various game information from the game server 102, and the data processing unit 162 causes the user interface unit 168 to display a game screen. The user interface unit 168 also detects various inputs by the player, and the data processing unit 162 notifies the game server 102 of the input information via the communication unit 160. In response to this input information, the game control unit 116 of the game server 102 cooperates with the game control unit 166 of the game terminal 104 to control the progress of the game.

The data storage unit 164 includes a game data storage unit 170. The game data storage unit 170 stores a game program.

The user interface unit 168 includes an input unit 172 that accepts input from the player, and an output unit 174 that outputs various information such as images and sounds to the player. The input unit 172 mainly detects the player's touch operation on the screen as input.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the data structure of the player data storage unit 120. As shown in FIG.
The player data storage unit 120 manages a player ID, a player name, and a possessed character in association with each other for each player. The player sends a command to the game server 102 to register a player for game L via the input unit 172 of the game terminal 104. The player can specify a player name of up to four characters. The player registration unit 148 assigns a player ID to the player.

A player can own multiple character characters. When a player registers, they are randomly assigned 20 character characters. The number of character characters increases when they clear quests, which will be described later. In FIG. 3, player A owns character characters with IDs "C001" and "C010" (hereafter referred to as "character character (C001)"). Player B also owns character character (C010).

Battles in Game L are played out in stages. These stages are called "battle stages." There are multiple battle stages during a quest, and they serve as obstacles to block the path of the friendly team. When enemy characters that appear in a battle stage are defeated, the game moves to the next battle stage. Players cooperate with other players to create words by combining letter characters, and fight enemy characters with attack power according to the word created. The quest is cleared when multiple battle stages have been cleared. Game L includes multiple quests. In the final battle stage of each quest, the strongest enemy character in the quest (hereafter referred to as the "boss character") appears. At the start of a quest, players select up to 12 letter characters from all of their possession to form a "character group."

FIG. 4 is a screen diagram showing a first organization screen 300 when organizing a character group.
When forming a character group, the player first selects a leader from among the character characters. The first formation screen 300 shown in FIG. 4 is a screen displayed when the player A forms a character group. In FIG. 4, the player A taps and selects the character character 210 "character X" corresponding to the character "o" from among all the character characters 210 he possesses, and inserts it into the group formation area 216. By operating the scroll bar 222, the player A can check all the character characters he possesses. The group formation unit 136 adds the selected character character 210 to the character group. In FIG. 4, "character X" is determined to be the leader, and the message "The leader is character X" is displayed in the information window 212.

When a player defeats enemy characters that appear on the battle stage (battle screen), the player can earn a reward with a certain probability (hereinafter referred to as the "reward acquisition rate"). The reward acquisition rate varies depending on the leader's parameter "luck", which will be described later. After player A selects up to 12 character characters 210, he or she taps the selection button 226 marked "Next", and the second formation screen 320 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed. When "Next" on the selection button 226 is tapped, the game control unit 166 transmits a group evaluation instruction to the game server 102 via the communication unit 160. After the group evaluation instruction is transmitted, a determination is made as to whether or not the character group is likely to clear the quest (described in detail below).

If player A taps the selection button 226 when there are fewer than 12 character characters 210 in the group formation area 216, the sixth formation screen 460 shown in FIG. 19 is displayed on player A's screen. In this case, a group evaluation instruction is also sent.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the second organization screen 320 when displaying the evaluation of a character group.
After receiving the group evaluation instruction, the win/loss prediction unit 140 of the game server 102 determines whether or not the character group can clear the quest (hereinafter referred to as "clearability determination"). The determination result is displayed in the determination result display area 224 of the second organization screen 320. The clearability determination is based on a comparison between the parameters of the character character 210 and a recommended value that is set in advance for the quest. In this embodiment, the recommended value for the quest is the "ability value" based on the parameter value of the character character 210 and the ability value that is set in advance for a boss character that appears during the quest.

Various parameters are set for the character characters 210, such as combat power (attack power and defense power), attributes, skills, and the evaluation value of the corresponding character. Attributes include "fire," "grass," and "water" (described in detail below). Character characters 210 may have skills such as "double damage," which doubles the damage inflicted on enemy characters. Evaluation values are set in advance for skills and corresponding characters by the game designer.

The winning/losing prediction unit 140 first calculates the basic ability value of each character 210 in the character group. For example, when a character 210 with a fighting power of 20 has a skill with an evaluation value of 30, the ability value of this character character 210 is 50 (=20+30). The ability value is further corrected by the attribute. For example, when the boss character has a fire attribute, the ability value of a character character with a water attribute that is strong against the fire attribute is corrected to twice the value. On the other hand, the ability value of a character character with a grass attribute that is weak against the fire attribute is halved. For example, when the basic ability value of the character character 210A (water attribute) is 70, the ability value is corrected to twice the value, 140. On the other hand, when the basic ability value of the character character 210B (grass attribute) is 90, the ability value is corrected to half, 45. The ability value of a character group is the sum of the ability values of the character characters 210 included in the character group.

If the ability value of the character group is more than twice the ability value of the boss character, the win/loss prediction unit 140 displays "Looks like it will work" in the judgment result display area 224. Hereinafter, this type of judgment result will be referred to as an "advantageous judgment."

If the ability value of the character group is more than 1x but less than 2x the ability value of the boss character, the win/loss prediction unit 140 will display the result as "just barely." Hereinafter, this type of result will be referred to as a "neutral result."

If the ability value of the character group is less than 1x the ability value of the boss character enemy character 204, the win/loss prediction unit 140 displays "Maybe impossible." Hereinafter, this type of judgment result is referred to as an "unfavorable judgment." The above-mentioned three types of judgment results are displayed based on the comparison result of the ability values of the character groups calculated based on the parameter values. In this embodiment, the clearing possibility judgment is made taking into consideration not only the fighting power (attack power and defense power) of the character character 210, but also the unique skills possessed by the character character 210 and its compatibility with the boss character.

The ability value of the character group in the group formation area 216 in FIG. 5, i.e., the total ability value of the multiple text characters 210, is assumed to be 3100. The ability value of the boss character is assumed to be 1500. Since the odds are more than twice as high, the outcome is deemed favorable, and the win/loss prediction unit 140 displays "Looks good" in the determination result display area 224. When the selection button 226 displaying "Yes" is tapped, the group formation unit 136 confirms the formation of the character group.

FIG. 6 shows a sequence of processes until a character group is determined.
The formation of the character group in Figures 4 and 5 is realized by the following process. First, when 1 to 12 character characters 210 are selected (S10), the game control unit 166 transmits a group evaluation instruction (S12). The group evaluation instruction includes the IDs of the character characters included in the character group. The win/lose prediction unit 140 performs the above-mentioned parameter comparison and executes a clear possibility determination (S16). The group formation unit 136 notifies the game terminal 104 of the determination result (S18). Here, it is assumed that the player has finalized the character group without reorganization (S20). The game control unit 166 transmits a group determination instruction to the game server 102 (S22).

As a result of the above, a character group consisting of 12 player characters is organized. There is also a character group organization support function, such as a recommended organization, which will be described later. However, of the 12 character characters 210, only 4 characters (hereinafter referred to as "battle characters") actually fight. The battle execution unit 138 randomly selects 4 character characters 210 from the 12 character characters 210.

Therefore, if a character group contains weak character characters 210, there is a possibility that only the weak character characters 210 will be selected as battle characters. The difficulty of the battle changes depending on the active selection of 12 characters and the passive selection of 4 characters. In other words, not only the skill of selecting the 12 player characters but also the element of luck in the selection made by the battle execution unit 138 affects the possibility of clearing the quest.

The player makes full use of the character characters 210 (battle characters) to fight against enemy characters. Game L has a single-play mode in which the player plays alone, and a multi-play mode in which the player plays cooperatively with other players. In the multi-play mode, the player organizes a team of 2 to 4 players (hereinafter referred to as an "ally team"). In the multi-play mode, a character group is organized for each player in the ally team. For example, if each of four players organizes a character group including 12 character characters 210, 16 (= 4 x 4) battle characters will be selected from a total of 48 (= 12 x 4) character characters 210. The following explanation assumes a multi-play mode with four players. In the multi-play mode, each of the four players organizes their own character group using the method described above.

A player who wants to play in multiplayer mode sends a team formation instruction (hereinafter referred to as a "team formation instruction") to the game server 102. Hereinafter, the player who sent the team formation instruction is referred to as the "owner." The team formation unit 150, which receives the team formation instruction, posts a team for which members are being recruited in the team formation window. Other players who see the member recruitment posting and wish to join the team apply. The owner decides whether or not to accept the applying player as a member of the team. The team formation unit 150 forms an allied team according to the owner's decision.

The member recruitment notice will end when there are four players on the friendly team or when the owner sends a command to stop recruiting. Players can also send team formation commands when restarting the game.

FIG. 7 is a screen diagram of the first battle screen 200 of the player during his turn.
7 is displayed on the game terminal 104 of player A who is fighting against an enemy character 204 named "Monster M." Player A has formed an ally team with three players, player B, player C, and player D. The names of the players on the ally team are displayed in tabs 208. The name of the enemy character 204 is displayed in an information window 212 at the bottom of the second battle screen 220.

In the first battle screen 200, Player A's own tab 208 is open. The four letter characters 210 displayed in the tab correspond to the characters "o," "su," "u," and "sa," respectively. Player A selects one of these four letter characters 210.

The character setting unit 132 sets a character frame 206 for each battle stage. The character frame 206 accommodates six characters, two of which are initially set, and four characters corresponding to the number of players are left blank.

In FIG. 7, the two characters "ka" and "me" are set in the character box 206. Four characters, the same as the number of players on the friendly team, are left blank. A six-letter theme word (hereafter referred to as a "theme word") is set in the character box 206. The theme word is selected randomly from among six-letter words. For example, the theme word for the battle stage shown in the first battle screen 200 in FIG. 7 is assumed to be "seaweed rice." However, the theme word is not disclosed to the players.

A player fills one of the four character characters into one of the blank spaces in the character box 206. A character string is formed as each player takes turns filling in the character boxes 206. When all the blank spaces in the character box 206 are filled in, the attack initiation unit 134 calculates the attack power against the enemy character 204 according to the completed word. However, if the completed word matches a theme word, it is a one-hit kill. Searching for a theme word is one of the attractions of the game L. The method of calculating the attack power according to the word will be described in detail later.

FIG. 8 is a screen diagram of the second battle screen 220 showing the selection operation of the letter character 210 by the player during a turn.
During a turn, a player taps and selects one of the four character characters 210 with a finger, and slides it to insert it into one of the blank spaces in the character frame 206. In the second battle screen 220 of FIG. 8, player A selects the character 210 corresponding to "o" (hereinafter, written as "character character 210 (o)") and inserts it into the leftmost blank space in the character frame 206. As a result, the three-character word "Okame" is completed.

The character setting unit 132 receives the operation contents from the communication unit 110 and updates the display of the character frame 206. The character setting unit 132 also transmits the operation contents to each player's game terminal 104, and the operation results of player A are reflected in each game terminal 104.

The turn control unit 128 gives a time limit to the player during a turn. The gauge shown on the timer 202 decreases as time passes. In the second battle screen 220 of FIG. 8, one-third of the time limit has passed. The timer 202 is only displayed to the player during a turn.

If the character 210 cannot be inserted within the time limit, the character setting unit 132 randomly selects one of the four character characters 210 possessed by the player during the turn and inserts it into one of the blank spaces in the character frame 206. Once the character character 210 has been inserted, the turn control unit 128 grants a turn to the next player.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the data structure of the character data storage unit 122. As shown in FIG.
Each character character 210 is assigned a character name, character, attribute, hit points, and skill. In addition, other parameters such as attack power and defense power are also assigned. As described above, an evaluation value is associated with a skill. The character character 210 further has parameters called "level" and "fortune" (described in detail later). The level is a parameter that indicates the growth level of the character character 210. "Fortune" is a parameter that determines the reward acquisition rate.

The character characters 210 include character characters 210 that correspond one-to-one to individual characters such as "o", "su", "u", and "sa" arranged for player A in FIG. 4, character characters 210 that can change to semi-voiced or voiced sounds such as "ha", "pa", and "ba", and line character characters 210 that include all vowels that can be combined such as "a row" and "ka row". The line character characters 210 change to "a", "i", "u", "e", and "o" every time the player taps the line character character 210 in the selected state. The character characters 210 that can change to semi-voiced or voiced sounds also change with a similar operation. For example, the line character characters 210 can change to "ka", "ki", "ku", "ke", and "ko" in the "ka row", so they are easy to use in various situations. Since the range of application is wide, the attack power is set low. On the other hand, the character characters 210 that correspond one-to-one to individual characters have a narrow range of application and therefore a high attack power. Even among the character characters 210 that correspond one-to-one to a single character, the attack power differs depending on how frequently the character is used. For example, a character character 210 that corresponds to a character that is used infrequently, such as "nu," has a relatively high attack power.

There are five types of attributes: fire, grass, water, light, and dark. Of these, the three attributes of fire, grass, and water are in a rock-paper-scissors relationship. In other words, the fire attribute is strong against grass and weak against water. The grass attribute is strong against water and weak against fire. The water attribute is strong against fire and weak against grass. Additionally, the light attribute and dark attribute are in an opposing relationship.

If the word completed by the friendly team contains a fire-attribute character 210, the damage inflicted on the grass-attribute enemy character 204 is doubled. On the other hand, even if the completed word contains a fire-attribute character 210, if the enemy character 204 has a water attribute, the damage inflicted is halved.

Some character characters 210 also have skills such as "Double Damage," which doubles the damage dealt to enemy characters 204 when a word is completed using that character character 210.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the data structure of the word data storage unit 124. As shown in FIG.
Each word that the team completes is assigned an ID and registered in a database in the word data storage unit 124. The database in the word data storage unit 124 is updated periodically by the game server 102.

Just like the letter characters 210, words also have attributes assigned to them. For example, the word "kitsune udon" has a fire attribute, and the word "okame" has a light attribute. When the friendly team completes a word with a fire attribute, the damage inflicted on the enemy character 204, which has a grass attribute, is doubled. Even if the friendly team completes a word with a fire attribute, if the enemy character 204 has a water attribute, the damage inflicted is halved.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the data structure of the damage data storage unit 126.
The basic damage to be inflicted on the enemy character 204 is set according to the number of characters in the word. In game L, the square of the number of characters in the completed word is the basic damage to be inflicted on the enemy character 204. The attack initiation unit 134 initiates an attack on the enemy character 204 when all the blanks in the character box 206 are filled.

The damage inflicted on the enemy character 204 is calculated based on various parameters of the character 210 used, the length and attributes of the word, the attributes of the enemy character 204, the theme word, etc.

The attack power against an enemy character is calculated as the sum of the attack power based on the word and the attack power based on the character character 210. The attack power based on the word is calculated as follows. The attack power of the fire attribute word "kitsune udon" against the grass attribute enemy character 204 is basically 36, which is the square of the number of characters. Because the fire attribute is strong against the grass attribute, the attack power is further doubled to 72.

Attack power based on the character character 210 is calculated as follows. For example, if the character character 210 (ki) has a fire attribute and an attack power of 31, then the attack power of the character character 210 (ki) against an enemy character with a grass attribute will be twice that, or 62. If the character character 210 (tsu) has a water attribute that is weak against grass attributes and has an attack power of 80, then the attack power of the character character 210 (tsu) will be half that, or 20. Let's say the total attack power of the character characters 210 included in the word "kitsune udon" is 150.

As a result of the above, the attack power of the word "kitsune udon" is 222 (=72 + 150). Furthermore, if any of the character characters 210 corresponding to the characters "ki," "tsu," "ne," "u," "do," and "n" have the skill "double damage," the attack power of that character character 210 will be doubled.

If a character string contains multiple words, multiple attacks will be launched. For example, the character string "kitsune udon" contains the three words "kitsune," "udon," and "udo." Therefore, if these four words are stored in the word data storage unit 124, an attack power is calculated for each of the four words "kitsune udon," "kitsune," "udon," and "udo," and four attacks will be executed on the enemy character 204.

The words may be in a language other than Japanese. For example, in English, when forming the character string "RANKING", "RANKING" includes multiple words such as "RAN", "RANK", "AN", "KIN", and "KING".

When the hit points of the enemy character 204 reach zero, the enemy character 204 is defeated. When the enemy character 204 is defeated, the game control unit 116 of the game server 102 executes the next battle stage. On the other hand, when an ally character receives an attack from the enemy character 204, the hit points of the ally characters decrease. If all the ally characters are annihilated before the enemy character 204 is defeated, the player's team is defeated.

The quest is cleared when multiple battle stages are cleared and the boss character is defeated. After clearing the battle stage, a new character 210 can be obtained with a reward acquisition rate based on the leader's "Luck". "Luck" is set in the range of 0 to 99. When "Luck" is at its minimum value of 0, the reward acquisition rate is 1%, and when "Luck" is at its maximum value of 99, the reward acquisition rate is 100%. "Luck" and the reward acquisition rate have a monotonically increasing relationship.

The luck control unit 143 provides each player with a "lucky bonus" according to the "lucky" of the leader. The luck bonus is determined by the number of "lucky" of the leader of each player's character group on the friendly team. For example, if the "lucky" of the leader of player A is 99, the "lucky" of the leader of player B is 80, the "lucky" of the leader of player C is 30, and the "lucky" of the leader of player D is 30, the number of "lucky bonuses" of each player is 0.99 + 0.8 + 0.3 + 0.3 = 2.39, which is rounded up to 3. Alternatively, the content of the luck bonus may be determined according to the total value of the luck.
The lucky bonus may be the character character 210, or may be an item that strengthens the attack power or hit points of an already owned character character 210. In any case, the lucky bonus may be information or an item that is useful for the player to progress through the game.

FIG. 12 is an enlarged screen of the icon 240 of the character 210. As shown in FIG.
12 is a screen diagram showing an enlarged display of the character 210 shown in the player character display area 218 in the first formation screen 300 shown in FIG. 4. The character character 210 in FIG. 12 corresponds to the "ya" row. The character management unit 145 increases the experience value of the character character 210 each time a battle stage is cleared. Each time the experience value exceeds a predetermined value, the character management unit 145 increases the level of the character character 210. The level of the character character 210 is displayed in the level display area 232.

The number of "Fuku" set for the character 210 is displayed in the fortune display area 230. The line character 210 in FIG. 12 is at level 27 and has 99 "Fuku".

The level of a character character 210 can be increased by combining with other types of character characters 210 (details will be described later). When a character character 210 increases in level, parameters such as hit points increase. The maximum level of a character character 210 is 99. Furthermore, the level of a character character 210 cannot be decreased. The number of "fortune" can be increased by combining character characters 210 of the same type (details will be described later).

The player can combine character characters 210 that they own. There are two types of combination: "same-type combination," in which the same character characters 210 are combined, and "different-type combination," in which two different types of character characters 210 are combined.

FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram for explaining homogeneous synthesis.
In homogeneous synthesis, two character characters 210 of the same type are synthesized into one, and one "Fuku" is added. In FIG. 13, two character characters 210 (ki) are synthesized of the same type. Of the two, one (basic side) has 2 "Fuku", and the other (additional side) has 1 "Fuku". When these two are synthesized, a new character character 210 (ki) having three "Fuku" is generated. When the player specifies the character character 210 on the basic side and the character character 210 on the additional side, the character management unit 145 executes homogeneous synthesis, and the fortune control unit 143 adjusts the "Fuku".

In homogeneous synthesis, two character characters 210 can be combined into one to add up their fortunes. The number of character characters 210 decreases, but the amount of "fortune" increases. The method of synthesising multiple character characters 210 also greatly affects how easily the game L can be progressed.

FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram for explaining heterogeneous synthesis.
In heterogeneous synthesis, both the levels of the two character characters 210 and the "fuku" (luck) change. Fig. 14 shows heterogeneous synthesis after the character character 210 (fu) is selected as the base side and the character character 210 (ki) is selected as the addition side. At this time, the "fuku" control unit 143 decrements the "fuku" of the character character 210 (fu) on the base side from 2 to 1, and does not change the "fuku" of the character character 210 (ki) on the addition side. On the other hand, the character management unit 145 does not change the level of the character character 210 (fu) on the base side, and increments the level of the character character 210 (ki) on the addition side from 17 to 18.

The lower limit value of the character 210 "fuku" is 0. A character 210 with a "fuku" of 0 cannot be used for heterogeneous synthesis.

The "fortune" of the base character 210 decreases through heterogeneous synthesis. The leader's "fortune" changes the reward acquisition rate. To increase the reward acquisition rate, the "fortune" can be increased through homogeneous synthesis. Homogeneous synthesis requires collecting character characters 210, but there is a trade-off in that the possibility of acquiring character characters 210 is affected by "fortune."

In game L, therefore, it is possible to accumulate more than the upper limit of 99 "lucks." Hereafter, "lucks" from the 100th onwards will be referred to as "secret savings." If the character 210 has 99 "lucks" and then increases its "lucks," it will be able to secretly accumulate "lucks" such as 99+1 (=100), 99+2 (=101), 99+3 (=102), etc. In other words, although the displayed "lucks" are 99 or more, internally it is possible to have more than 100.

When the leader's "Luck" is 0, the reward acquisition rate is 0%. When "Luck" is 99, the reward acquisition rate is 100%. Players can recognize that the number of "Luck" and the reward acquisition rate are linked. Even when "Luck" is 100 or more, the reward acquisition rate is maintained at 100%. Since "Luck" can be accumulated without being restricted by the maximum limit of 99, if "Luck" is increased to 100 or more through homogeneous synthesis, the reward acquisition rate can be maintained at 100% even if "Luck" is reduced through heterogeneous synthesis.

FIG. 15 is a schematic diagram for explaining heterogeneous synthesis during secret savings.
When heterogeneous synthesis is performed with the character character 210 with the secret savings as the base side, the level of the character character 210 on the added side can be improved while maintaining the reward acquisition rate at 100%. FIG. 15 shows heterogeneous synthesis of the character character 210 (i) and the character character 210 (ki). The character character 210 (ki) on the base side has a "happiness" of 99 on the display, but actually has one secret savings, so it is 100 (=99+1). The character character 210 (ki) on the added side has a level of 17. When these two characters are heterogeneously synthesized, the character character 210 (fu)'s "happiness" decreases from 100 to 99, and the character character 210 (ki)'s level increases from 17 to 18. When the "happiness" is 99 or more, the reward acquisition rate is 100%, so such heterogeneous synthesis does not cause a direct disadvantage to the player. The player can also recognize that no disadvantage occurs because the character character 210 (i)'s "happiness" is maintained at 99 or more. According to the secret savings method, it is possible to perform homogeneous composition of the same type of character without hesitation, and to perform heterogeneous composition as necessary.

(Recommended formation)
Next, a description will be given of the "recommended formation" function that assists in forming character groups.
The player can select the character group by himself/herself, but can also have the group presenting unit 142 suggest a "recommended formation". For example, when the result of the clearing possibility determination is an "unfavorable determination", it may be possible to avoid making a reckless challenge by following the "recommended formation". Hereinafter, when the result of the clearing possibility determination is an unfavorable determination or a neutral determination, at least not being an advantageous determination corresponds to an "unfavorable condition". The establishment of the unfavorable condition means that there is a high possibility that the character group cannot clear the quest, and the non-establishment of the unfavorable condition (the unfavorable condition is not established) means that there is a high possibility that the character group can clear the quest. In this embodiment, it is described that the unfavorable condition is established when the determination is neutral or lower.

FIG. 16 is a screen diagram of the third editing screen 400 when the judgment result is "just barely".
16 is 3100. The boss character's ability value is 1800. Since the character group's ability value is about 17.2 times the boss character's ability value, the clearing possibility judgment is "just barely (neutral judgment)," and the disadvantageous condition is met.

Player A may confirm the character group as is, or may reorganize the character group. If the selection button 226 displaying "No" in FIG. 16 is tapped, the screen transitions to the organization screen shown in FIG. 17. Note that when a disadvantageous condition is met, the group presentation unit 142 may automatically present a recommended organization.

FIG. 17 is a screen diagram of the fourth formation screen 420 when a recommended formation is presented.
17, a message "Show recommended formation?" is displayed in the information window 212. When player A taps the selection button 226 displaying "Yes", the group presentation unit 142 generates a recommended formation, that is, a recommended character group from the character characters 210 owned by player A, using the following algorithm.

The group presentation unit 142 first extracts character 210 that have attributes that are superior to those of the boss character. The group presentation unit 142 then selects character 210 that correspond to frequently occurring characters such as "a" and "i". In this embodiment, the characters are narrowed down to those that are likely to be used in various words, that is, have a frequency rate of a predetermined value or more, for example, 10% or more. When there are 12 or more applicable character characters 210, 12 are selected in descending order of frequency of occurrence. When there are fewer than 12 applicable character characters 210, the character character 210 with the highest ability value among the remaining character characters 210 is used to fill the vacancies. In this way, the group presentation unit 142 presents a group of 12 characters as a recommended formation.

The group presentation unit 142 may select characters so that the character group in the recommended formation does not satisfy the disadvantageous condition, in other words, is a character group that is determined to be advantageous. For example, the group presentation unit 142 may randomly select character strings 210 multiple times, and when a character group that is determined to be advantageous is generated, present that character group as a recommended formation. In addition, when a character group that is determined to be advantageous cannot be formed, the group presentation unit 142 may display "No recommendations."

FIG. 18 is a screen diagram of the fifth formation screen 440 when a recommended formation is presented.
The group presentation unit 142 sets the character group of the recommended formation in the group formation area 216. The information window 212 displays "This group is recommended. Would you like to form this group?" After the recommended formation is made, the win/loss prediction unit 140 judges the possibility of clearing the game. The result of the judgment changes from "Just about there (neutral judgment)" to "Probable (advantageous judgment)." If "Yes" is selected, the character group of the recommended formation is confirmed.

The skills of the text characters 210 may be taken into consideration when recommending a formation. For example, some enemy characters can inject thorns into characters set in a string of characters. When a character is inserted next to a thorn-inflicted character, the entire team will take damage. In a recommended formation for a quest in which such an enemy character 204 appears, the character group may include at least one text character 210 with the "thorn removal" skill.

When forming a character group, it is necessary to consider not only the fighting power of each character 210 but also their compatibility with enemy characters. In the recommended formation, character groups are formed taking this compatibility into account, making it easier to suggest the most suitable character group for the player.

The player may carefully consider forming a character group before starting a quest, or may leave the formation of the character group to the group presentation unit 142 from the beginning. Alternatively, the player may form seven of the twelve characters themselves and have the group presentation unit 142 form a recommended formation for the rest. The group formation unit 136 may save the seven character characters 210 as regular members, and fill in the remaining five character characters 210 with a recommended formation for each quest or battle stage.

By being presented with a recommended formation before attempting a quest, players can easily form an appropriate character group. In addition, whether or not the formed character group can clear the quest is shown before attempting the quest. This makes it easier for players to avoid reckless challenges. On the other hand, players can also choose their own character group without relying on the recommended formation. Since the recommended formation is not necessarily the strongest formation, players who want to enjoy forming formations may form a character group that is stronger than the recommended formation.

FIG. 19 is a screen diagram of the sixth organization screen 460 showing the display content when there is a vacancy in a character group.
In Fig. 19, player A selects nine character characters 210 and selects "Yes." The win/loss prediction unit 140 compares a character group including the nine character characters 210 with a boss character to determine the possibility of clearing the game. The result of the determination in Fig. 19 is "Maybe impossible (unfavorable determination)."

Because there are three vacancies in the character group, the group formation unit 136 displays a message in the information window 212 saying "There are vacancies in the group. Fill them with a recommended formation?" If "Yes" is selected, the group formation unit 136 forms a recommended formation of three character characters 210 using the method described above to fill the vacancies. As a result, a character group with a hybrid composition is formed from the nine character characters 210 selected by the player and the three character characters 210 proposed by the group presentation unit 142.

The player may fix regular members (first character group) that are less than the capacity. For example, out of the capacity of 12 characters, the player may select nine character characters 210 and save these as the first character group. Then, the player may fill in the missing three characters for each quest using "recommended formation," forming a character group (second character group) that adds the recommended three character characters 210 (replacement members) to the regular members. The group formation unit 136 saves the regular members for each player.

For example, in a quest with many fire-attribute enemies, the group presentation unit 142 is likely to select a water-attribute character 210 that is strong against fire-attribute as a replacement member. On the other hand, in a quest with many water-attribute enemies, the group presentation unit 142 is likely to select a wood-attribute character 210 that is strong against water-attribute as a replacement member. With this control method, by setting favorite regular members and selecting character characters 210 that suit the quest as replacement members, it is possible to achieve two goals at the same time: reflecting the player's preferences and improving the likelihood of clearing the quest.

FIG. 20 is a screen diagram of the seventh organization screen 480 showing the display contents after filling vacancies in a character group.
In FIG. 20, a character group including 12 character characters 210 is organized by filling three vacancies. The win/loss prediction unit 140 executes a clear possibility judgment again. The judgment result improves from "probably impossible (unfavorable judgment)" to "just barely (neutral judgment)." Note that if "No" is selected in the situation of FIG. 20, the character group is cleared. If the unfavorable judgment is considered to be a disadvantageous condition, then by incorporating the recommended organization, a character group organization in which the unfavorable judgment does not hold is realized.

FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a first selection screen 500 when the owner organizes a team.
The formation of the team of allies is performed by opening the team formation window (first selection screen 500). The first selection screen 500 differs depending on whether the player is the owner or another player is the owner. Here, the display contents when the player is the owner will be explained. The display contents when another player is the owner will be explained later with reference to FIG. 22.

The results of the determination of the possibility of clearing the game are displayed for each character group organized by each player. In FIG. 21, the results of the determination of the possibility of clearing the game for each of players B, C, D, and E who applied to join Player A's team are also displayed.

The win/loss prediction unit 140 judges that Player B has an advantageous position, that is, that he/she has a high possibility of clearing the quest even if he/she challenges the quest alone. This may be because the applicant, Player B, has a strong character 210, or because he/she is skilled at organizing a character group.

The owner can refer to the results of the clearing feasibility assessment for each player who applies and select the players to add to the team. Adding players who have organized a powerful character group to the friendly team will increase the chances of clearing the quest.

The owner selects a player to add to the friendly team and taps the selection button 226 that displays "Add." For example, if the owner selects player B and then selects the Add button, player B can be added to the friendly team. On the other hand, if the owner selects player D and then taps the selection button 226 that displays "Reject," player D will be removed from the player name display area 234.

FIG. 22 is a screen diagram of a second selection screen 520 when deciding to join a team.
A player may become an owner and recruit members for his team, or may join a team that is recruiting. Fig. 22 shows a second selection screen 520 for player A to select a team to join from a number of teams that are recruiting members. In Fig. 22, "Team 1" owned by player C, "Team 2" owned by player E, and "Team 3" owned by player G are recruiting members. When there is a request for team formation from the owner, the team formation unit 150 registers the team as a team that is recruiting members on the second selection screen 520, and shows this to the game terminals 104 of the other players.

Team 1 has player D, so there is room for two more players. Team 2 has player B and player F, so there is room for one more player.

In FIG. 22, a judgment result display area 224 is provided for each team. The judgment result display area 224 shows the result of the clear possibility judgment assuming that player A participates. For example, in the case of team 1, the win/loss prediction unit 140 calculates the ability values of the character groups owned by the three players, player C, player D, and player A, and compares the average or total value with the ability value of the boss character. In other words, if player A has a strong character group, the judgment result is likely to be positive, and if player A has a weak character group, the judgment result is likely to be negative.

If player A joins team 1, the chance of clearing the game is "just barely (neutral)." This may be because team 1 is a weak team, but player A leads a strong character group, which improves the chance of clearing the game from an unfavorable judgment to a neutral judgment. Alternatively, team 1 may be a strong team, but player A's character group is weak, which worsens the chance of clearing the game from an advantageous judgment to a neutral judgment. Player A can choose which team to join after judging which team would help him win, taking into account his own abilities. Player A can also check in advance whether his participation will be a drag on the team. In this way, it is possible to judge the chance of clearing the game as if he were joining a team, before actually joining the team.

The player selects the team he or she wants to join and taps the selection button 226 that says "Join." The team organization unit 150 notifies the team owner of Player A's participation request.

The game system 100 has been described above based on the embodiment.
In this embodiment, the parameters (ability values) of the character characters 210 in the character group are compared with the parameters (ability values) of the boss character that appears during the quest to determine the possibility of clearing the quest. Since the quality of the character group's composition can be determined before actually participating in the quest, even beginners are less likely to take on a reckless challenge with a reckless composition. In addition, overcoming disadvantageous conditions such as "maybe impossible" or "just barely possible" and winning is thought to evoke an even greater sense of accomplishment.

The group presentation unit 142 can suggest recommended character group formations to the player. The group presentation unit 142 can suggest recommended formations taking into consideration not only the strength of each character character 210 (player character) but also their compatibility with enemies. In game L, it is possible to enjoy forming character groups, and also to omit the hassle of forming character groups. Furthermore, partial recommended formations by filling vacancies are also possible, making a hybrid of manual and automatic formations possible. Also, the degree of support from the group presentation unit 142 can be determined by how many of the 12 character characters 210 are to be included in the manual formation.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment and modifications, and can be embodied by modifying the components without departing from the spirit of the invention. Various inventions may be formed by appropriately combining multiple components disclosed in the above-described embodiment and modifications. In addition, some components may be deleted from all the components shown in the above-described embodiment and modifications.

Although the game system 100 has been described as being composed of multiple game terminals 104 and one game server 102, some of the functions of the game terminals 104 may be realized by the game server 102, or some of the functions of the game server 102 may be assigned to the game terminal 104. In addition, a third device other than the game server 102 and game terminal 104 may be responsible for some of the functions.

The game system 100, which is a collection of the functions of the game terminal 104 and game server 102 described in FIG. 2, can also be understood as a single "information processing device" in the broader sense. How to allocate the multiple functions required to realize the present invention to one or more pieces of hardware can be determined in consideration of the processing capabilities of each piece of hardware, the specifications required for the game system 100, etc.

In this embodiment, the ability value of the character group is compared with the ability value of the boss character to determine the possibility of completion. The comparison is not limited to the boss character, and the ability value of other enemy characters may be compared to determine the possibility of completion. Also, a recommended value may be set in advance for the quest, and the possibility of completion may be determined based on the relative merits of the character group's ability value and the recommended value for the quest.

The formation of character groups does not necessarily have to be done before the start of a quest, i.e., before the start of the first battle stage, but may be done for each battle stage.

In determining the possibility of clearing the stage, various factors of victory or defeat can be taken into consideration. For example, in a battle stage with a grass attribute, the ability value of a character character having a fire attribute that is strong against the grass attribute may be increased. Similarly, the ability value of a character character having a water attribute that is weak against the grass attribute may be decreased. In addition, there may be enemy characters for which a certain skill is effective and enemy characters for which it is not effective. For example, a skill called "spear charge" may be effective against physical enemy characters but ineffective against ghostly enemy characters. In a quest in which an enemy character having a characteristic of being strong against dragons appears, the ability value of a player character belonging to the dragon tribe may be decreased. The victory or defeat prediction unit 140 may increase the ability value of the character group when the character group includes a boss character or a character character having a skill that is effective against enemy characters. When the leader character 210 has a skill that strengthens the water attribute character characters 210, the ability value of the water attribute character characters 210 included in the character group may be increased. When the theme word "Kintaro Ame" is set, the ability values of the character characters 210 corresponding to "Ki", "N", "Ta", "Ro", "U", "A", and "Me" may be increased. In any case, in a game in which the outcome of a battle is determined by complex factors such as attack power, attributes, and skills, the recommended formations by the group presentation unit 142 are considered to be even more useful.

In this embodiment, the possibility that the organized character group will clear the quest is displayed in three stages: "Probable," "Barely possible," and "Maybe impossible." The method of displaying the judgment results is not limited to this, and can be set by the designer as desired. For example, the win/loss prediction unit 140 may display the judgment results in five stages, or may display them as a graph. The win/loss prediction unit 140 may also display the probability of clearing the quest as an actual number. In this case, the judgment results can be understood in more detail and accurately, making it easier to grasp the merits of the organized decks and the players who wish to participate.

In this embodiment, the present invention has been described with reference to a team-based competitive game, but it can also be applied to other types of games, such as shooting games and rhythm games.

In this embodiment, the description focuses on a game for a smartphone. However, the game system 100 may be realized by a home game console, a personal computer, or the like. It may be an arcade game, or a game linked to an arcade game.
