In the acquisition condition column 703, the acquisition condition (the number of essential points) is displayed according to the selection in the reward candidate selection column 704.
Then, the customization management unit 213 executes a mission customization process for each selection candidate selection in the reward candidate selection field 704. In this case, the customization management unit 213 displays the total number of points in the point number total column 702. Then, the customization management unit 213 outputs a reward candidate to the reward candidate selection field 704 in the same manner as the reward candidate screen 510.
Further, in the reward candidate selection column 704, when a reward candidate desired by the user is set, attention may be given to the number of points that are lacking. In this case, the customization management unit 213 executes reward customization processing according to the reward candidate setting in the reward candidate selection field 704. In this case, the customization management unit 213 displays a reward candidate acquisition condition (the number of essential points) in the acquisition condition column 703. Furthermore, the customization management unit 213 compares the acquisition condition (the number of essential points) with the total number of points in the total number of points column 702. If the total number of points is insufficient for the required number of points, the customization management unit 213 specifies a selection candidate for the mission item in which the number of points that can compensate for the difference is recorded, and selects the mission. In column 701, it is output as a recommended candidate. Thereby, the user can customize while comparing the mission and the reward.
Further, the ratio of the points of each mission item for the selected selection candidate may be displayed in a gauge. In this case, on the mission selection screen 500 and the customization screen 700, a ratio obtained by dividing the number of points of each mission item by the total number of points is output in a bar display (stacked bar graph). Thereby, the user can adjust the selection candidate in consideration of the weighting of the mission item for the desired reward.
