  As shown in FIG. 1, the control device 42 executes a program stored in the storage device 44, thereby providing a plurality of functions (object registration unit 52, determination 54, first number) for providing a game to each terminal device 12. 1 presentation part 55, 2nd presentation part 56, reward grant part 57, inspection control part 58, association part 59) are realized. Each function of the control device 42 can be distributed to a plurality of devices.

  The object registration unit 52 stores the character acquired by each user in the storage device 44 as a registered character. That is, the object registration unit 52 adds the unit data U corresponding to the registration target character to the owned character information CA and the registered character information CC included in the user information Q of the user. Specifically, the object registration unit 52 causes the storage device 44 to store, as a registered character, a character acquired by the user as a result of various events executed in the game in response to instructions from each user to the terminal device 12. . For example, a character acquired by a user as a result of a search event for searching a virtual space or a lottery event for selecting a character in a lottery process (paid / free) is stored in the storage device 44 as a registered character. In addition, a configuration in which a user acquires separate characters obtained by combining a plurality of characters, or a configuration in which a transfer-side user acquires a character for which transfer has been instructed by another user may be employed. That is, the acquisition in each embodiment is not limited to acquiring a predetermined registration target object, but has an opportunity to register the registration target object in the game, such as meeting the predetermined registration target object in the game. It means a case and can be rephrased by the term “appearance”. Further, in the present embodiment, when a first user who has viewed a picture book offers a trade regarding a character to a second user who is a user having the picture book, the second user approves the offer. The object registration unit 52 stores the character in the storage device 44 as the registered character of the second user.

  In the present embodiment, not only a character is acquired as a reward at an event, but also an enemy character that has been met can be acquired when an enemy character is encountered at a battle event or the like. Furthermore, the object registration unit 52 removes the character from the owned character information CA when the user combines the characters at the combining event or when the user sells the character at the selling event. The composite event is an event for selecting a base character and a material character and combining the characters in order to increase the character level or the like. If the synthesis event is successful, the level of the base character increases, but the material character disappears. Therefore, the object registration unit 52 deletes the character as the material from the owned character information CA. The sale event is an event for exchanging the character for money in the game, and the character disappears when the sale is performed. Therefore, the object registration unit 52 deletes the sold character from the owned character information CA. However, since the character deleted from the owned character information CA remains in the registered character information CC, there may be a difference between the content of the owned character information CA and the content of the registered character information CC.

  The determination unit 54 compares all the characters included in all character information R as a predetermined object group existing in the game with the registered characters, and determines whether each of the characters is a registered character or a character other than the registered character. Determine if it is an unregistered character. Moreover, in this embodiment, the discrimination | determination part 54 compares all the character information R as a predetermined object group, the registration object of the 1st user who browsed the picture book, and the registration object of the 2nd user who has the said picture book. Then, the registered object of the second user, the unregistered object of the second user, the registered object of the first user, and the unregistered object of the first user are determined.

  When the first presentation unit 55 receives a pictorial book page display request, which will be described later, the characters of all the characters are arranged in a predetermined order, and an image of each character is displayed in the first area of the pictorial book page for each predetermined display range. Let When the determining unit 54 determines that the predetermined character is a registered character when the characters of all the characters are arranged in a predetermined order, the first presentation unit 55 registers the registered character at the position of the predetermined character. Display the image. Further, when the first presentation unit 55 arranges all the characters in a predetermined order and the determination unit 54 determines that the predetermined character is an unregistered character, the first presentation unit 55 places the predetermined character in the place of the predetermined character. An image indicating that the character is an unregistered character is displayed. A specific example of the display of the pictorial book page and the display in the first area will be described later. In the present embodiment, the first user can browse the second user's pictorial book page. At this time, the first presentation unit 55 includes an image indicating the registered object of the second user, An image showing an unregistered object of two users is displayed so that the relationship between the registered object or unregistered object of the second user and the registered object or unregistered object of the first user can be identified.

  The second presenting unit 56 distributes the distribution of the image of the registered character displayed in the first area of the pictorial book page and the image indicating that it is an unregistered character to the second area so that it can be identified over a plurality of display ranges. Display. A specific example of display in the second area will be described later.

  In response to a browsing instruction for a predetermined range of the second area, the browsing control unit 58 displays an image of a registered character and an image indicating an unregistered character in a display range corresponding to the predetermined range. The first presentation unit 55 is controlled. Specifically, when a predetermined range of distribution between the image of the registered character displayed in the second area and the image indicating that it is an unregistered character is selected, the first presentation unit 55 is controlled to perform the predetermined An image of a registered character and an image indicating an unregistered character in a display range corresponding to the range are displayed in the first area. Details will be described later.

  The reward granting unit 57 grants a reward when the registered characters increase and satisfy a predetermined condition. For example, a reward is awarded when the total number of registered characters reaches a predetermined number, or when the number of registered characters having a predetermined attribute reaches a predetermined number. Details will be described later.

  The associating unit 59 associates the first user who requested browsing of the picture book and the character trade with the second user in response to the request. Details will be described later.

In addition, since the tab B40 is scrolled in the horizontal direction by selecting the left and right page feed keys B3 described above, the user can quickly grasp the distribution of the entire registered characters or unregistered characters in the pictorial book. it can. In addition, you may display the page outline which each tab B40 shows in 2nd area | region B4. For example, by assigning an area number corresponding to each tab B40, the user can more quickly grasp the overall distribution of registered characters or unregistered characters in the pictorial book.

FIG. 17 shows an example of the arrangement order of character images in the first region B2. As shown in FIG. 17, a 5 × 5 square frame is displayed in the first region B2, and the arrangement order is ascending toward the lower left corner, with the upper left corner of the frame being the first. . This is the arrangement order of the first column. Hereinafter, the second column, the third column, the fourth column, and the fifth column are also in ascending order from top to bottom.
As shown in FIG. 17, the second area B4 is an aspect in which each page displayed in the first area B2 is reduced, and therefore has the same arrangement order as the first area B2.
Note that the arrangement order of the character images is not limited to such an example. For example, as shown in FIG. 18, the upper left end of the 5 × 5 grid-like frame is the first, and the upper right end. Ascending order may be possible. With such an arrangement order as the arrangement order of the first row, the second row, the third row, the fourth row, and the fifth row may be similarly arranged in ascending order from left to right.
Furthermore, the grid-like frames displayed in the first area B2 and the second area B4 are not limited to a size of 5 × 5, and may be a size of 5 × 3, for example, and can be changed at any time. You may do it.
Further, the size of the squares may be changed for each page, and in this case, the page may be changed for each area.

  In the initial display of the pictorial book page P2 immediately after the pictorial book button A45 is selected, the frame image B41 is displayed on the first page portion of the tab B40. This indicates that the page currently displayed in the first area B2 is the first page of the pictorial book. Therefore, when the user scrolls the tab B40 and selects another page of the tab B40, the frame image B41 is displayed on the other page, and the corresponding page is displayed in the first area B2. Become. This display process will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 11, when the user selects a predetermined page of the tab B40 (FIG. 11: Step S103), the terminal device 12 sends the management device 14A with identification information PID for identifying the user of the terminal device 12. A request for browsing the predetermined page of the picture book is transmitted (FIG. 11: Step S104). Upon receiving the identification information PID and the browsing request for the predetermined page, the browsing control unit 58 of the management device 14A identifies the page for which the browsing request has been made (FIG. 11: Step S204), and the first presentation unit 55 Display information of the identified page is created (FIG. 11: Step S205). After the creation, the first presentation unit 55 transmits information necessary for displaying the specified page as a browsing response to the terminal device 12 via the communication device 46 (FIG. 11: step S206). Receiving these pieces of information, the control device 20 of the terminal device 12 displays the pictorial book page on the display device 26 (FIG. 11: step S105).

  Therefore, the user grasps the distribution of the overall registered characters and unregistered characters in the pictorial book by scrolling the tab B40 in the second area B4, and selects the page to be viewed on the tab B40. The page to be viewed in the area B2 can be quickly displayed.

  In the present embodiment, since the tab B40 is displayed in the second area B4, even if the total number of characters is close to 1,000 and the number of pages of the picture book is about 40 pages, This makes it possible to grasp the distribution of various registered characters and unregistered characters, and to advance the game strategically, and to speed up the display of the page to be viewed.

<Picture book trade processing>
Next, a picture book trade process performed when the picture book trade button B12 is selected will be described. In the present embodiment, a user who selects the picture book trade button B12 is a first user, and a user of a picture book page that the first user wants to browse is a second user. In addition, the terminal device of the first user is a terminal device 12A, and the terminal device of the second user is a terminal device 12B.

When the first user selects the picture book trade button B12 on the picture book page P2 shown in FIG.
12 A of terminal devices transmit the browsing request of the list page of a friend with the identification information PID which identifies the 1st user of 12 A of terminal devices with respect to 14 A of management apparatuses (FIG. 12: step S300). Upon receiving the identification information PID and the browsing request, the browsing control unit 58 reads information necessary for display from the fellow information FA in the user information Q and creates information necessary for displaying the peer list page (FIG. 12). : Step S400).

  The browsing control unit 58 transmits information necessary for display of the fellow list page to the terminal device 12A as a browsing response (FIG. 12: step S401). The control device 20 of the terminal device 12A displays the buddy list page on the display device 26 (FIG. 12: step S302). FIG. 6 shows an example of the friend list page P3. As shown in FIG. 6, the fellow list page P3 includes a previous page button E1 for displaying the previous page, a next page button E2 for displaying the next page, and a fellow information display area E3. In accordance with the size of the display device 26 of the terminal device 12A and the like, for example, the fellow information display area E3 for three people is displayed on one page. The friend information display area E3 includes an icon image E4 of a user who is a friend, an image E5 of a leader character, a user name E6, other information E7 of the user, a picture book browsing application button E8, and a detail display button E9. Yes. When the detail display button E9 is selected, the page is switched to a page on which more detailed information of the user is displayed. When the picture book browsing application button E8 is selected, a picture book browsing request is transmitted from the terminal device 12A to the management device 14A.

  A 1st user sees the above buddy list pages P3, and selects the user who wishes to browse a picture book. When the user (second user) who wishes to browse the pictorial book is determined, the first user selects the pictorial book browsing application button E8 displayed in the fellow information display area E3 of the second user. When the first user selects the picture book browsing application button E8 displayed in the fellow user information display area E3 of the second user (FIG. 12: Step S303), the terminal device 12A makes the terminal device 12A The browsing request for the pictorial book page of the second user is transmitted together with the identification information PID for identifying the first user and the identification information PID for identifying the second user (FIG. 12: step S304). Upon receiving the identification information PID and the browsing request, the management device 14A receives the identification information CID included in the entire character information R stored in the storage device 44 and the user information Q including the identification information PID of the second user by the determination unit 54. The identification information CID included in the registered character information CC is compared to determine whether each character included in the entire character information R is a registered character or an unregistered character (FIG. 12: step S402). The determining unit 54 further refers to the display table TBL1 of the first user to determine whether or not the unregistered character in the second user is a registered character in the first user (FIG. 12: Step S402).

The first presentation unit 55 of the management device 14A creates the display table TBL2 for displaying the pictorial book page of the second user based on the determination result (FIG. 12: step S403). FIG. 10 shows an example of the display table TBL2. In the display table TBL2, as shown in FIG. 10, for each character included in all character information R, registration information, arrangement order, name, image information, rarity, maximum level, required power, attack power, defense Power, price, in-game appearance area, and other information are stored.
In the above description, it is described that the display table TBL2 is created with reference to the display table TBL1. However, when the management device 14A displays the pictorial book page of the second user, the identification information CID included in the entire character information R, the identification information CID included in the registered character information CC of the second user, and the registration of the first user As long as the identification information CID included in the character information CC is compared, the procedure can be arbitrarily changed. For example, as long as the identification information CID included in the entire character information R is compared with the identification information CID included in the registered character information CC of the second user and the identification information CID included in the registered character information CC of the first user, the display It is possible to create the display table TBL2 without creating the table TBL1. Further, when the registered character information CC itself has a data structure corresponding to the display table TBL2 in which the registered information of each user can be identified, it is not necessary to create the display table TBL2 again.

  The information stored in the display table TBL2 is the same as the information included in the all character information R except for the registration information and the order of arrangement. The registration information is information indicating the determination result in step S200. When the registration information is “1”, the character is a registered character, and when the registration information is “0”, the character is an unregistered character. The items of information stored in the display table TBL2 of the second user are the same as the items of information stored in the display table TBL1 of the first user. However, when the registration information is “2” in the second user display table TBL2, this indicates that the character is an unregistered character for the second user but a registered character for the first user. Yes.

  The arrangement order is information indicating the arrangement order displayed on the pictorial book page. In the initial state, the arrangement order is set so that the areas are arranged in ascending order and the identification information CID is arranged in ascending order. An area means a progress area in an adventure scenario on a game called a quest, and is a concept including a game stage in the game progress. Numbers are assigned to the areas, and characters appearing in each area are determined in advance. For characters with the same area number, the arrangement order is determined based on other information such as the rarity.

  Next, the 1st presentation part 55 produces the display information of the 1st page of a 2nd user's picture book based on display table TBL2 (FIG. 12: step S404). As shown in FIG. 7, the first page of the second user's picture book is the same as the first page of the first user's picture book, and a character image is displayed in the first area B2 having a 5 × 5 grid shape. It has come to be. Character images are displayed for registered characters, and circles are displayed for unregistered characters. The registered character in the picture book of the first user and the registered character in the picture book of the second user are displayed as an image B20. A character that is an unregistered character in the second user's picture book and is a registered character in the first user's picture book is displayed so as to be distinguishable from other characters. Specifically, as in the identification area B60, the background image of the character image is displayed so as to have a different color, brightness, pattern, and the like from the background image of the registered character image. The 1st presentation part 55 produces the information required for the display of the 1st page of such 1st area | region B2.

  Therefore, when the first user browses the picture book page P2 of the second user, the character is already registered as a registered character in his picture book by the identification area B60, and in the picture book of the second user, An unregistered character that has not yet been registered can be easily found.

  In addition, the 2nd presentation part 56 produces information required in order to display the tab displayed on 2nd area | region B4 below 1st area | region B2. The tabs are the same as the tabs displayed on the first user's picture book page. The portion corresponding to the registered character is displayed in a dark color, and the portion corresponding to the unregistered character is displayed in a light color. The identification area B60 is also displayed in the second area B4 in a color, brightness, pattern, or the like that is distinguishable from other characters. The second presentation unit 56 creates such tab display information for all pages based on the display table TBL1.

  The first presentation unit 55 provides information necessary for displaying the first page of the first region B2, and the second presentation unit 56 provides information necessary for displaying the tab of the second region B4. It transmits as a browsing response with respect to the terminal device 12A via 46 (FIG. 12: step S405). The control device 20 of the terminal device 12A that has received these pieces of information causes the display device 26 to display a pictorial book page (FIG. 12: step S305).

<Trade page display process>
Next, trade page display processing that is performed when the first user selects the identification area B60 on the pictorial book page P2 of the second user will be described. The character displayed in the identification area B60 is a registered character that has already been registered in the first user's picture book, but is not yet registered in the second user's picture book. Therefore, for the second user, the character displayed in the identification area B60 is a character necessary for picture book completion. When the character is presented and a trade is applied for, the trade is performed under advantageous conditions. It is possible to proceed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the character displayed in the identification area B60 is selected, the terminal device 12A instructs the management device 14A to identify information PID for identifying the first user of the terminal device 12A, the second A trade page browsing request is transmitted together with the identification information PID for identifying the user and the identification information CID of the character displayed in the identification area B60 (FIG. 12: step S306).

  Upon receiving the identification information PID, the identification information CID, and the browsing request, the browsing control unit 58 creates information necessary for displaying the trade page (FIG. 12: step S406), and transmits the information to the terminal device 12A as a browsing response. (FIG. 12: Step S407). The control device 20 of the terminal device 12A displays a trade page on the display device 26 (FIG. 12: step S306). FIG. 8 shows an example of the trade page P4. As shown in FIG. 8, the trade page P4 includes a character display area F1 for displaying information on characters to trade, a trade condition input area F2 for inputting trade conditions, and a trade application button F3. In the character display area F1, information on the character displayed in the identification area B60 and selected by the first user is displayed. In the trade condition input area F2, trade conditions can be arbitrarily input. When the trade application button F3 is selected, a trade request is transmitted to the management device 14A together with the character to be traded and the trade conditions. Here, instead of registering the trading target character in the second user's picture book, the trading condition is that the second user has been registered in the first user's picture book and the first user has not been registered. Will be registered. In addition, the said trade conditions are arbitrary and may give predetermined | prescribed item which a 2nd user possesses with respect to a 1st user.

  When a trade condition is input in the trade condition input area F2 and the trade application button F3 is selected (FIG. 12: Step S307), the control device 20 of the terminal device 12A identifies the first user to the management device 14A. The trade request is transmitted together with the identification information PID to be identified, the identification information PID for identifying the second user, the character to be traded, and the trade conditions (FIG. 12: Step S308). The management device 14 </ b> A that has received the information registers the trade information in the storage device 44. Then, the second user's terminal device 12B is notified that the first user has applied for trade (FIG. 12: step S407).

  The control device 20 of the terminal device 12B that has received the notification of the trade application displays in the notification column on the second user's top screen P1 that the trade application has been notified. When the second user who sees this display confirms the trade conditions and selects a trade response button (not shown) indicating that the trade is accepted or not accepted, the control device 20 of the terminal device 12B Along with the identification information PID of the second user, an answer to the trade selected by the second user is transmitted to the management apparatus 14A as a trade response (FIG. 12: Step S501). The management device 14A that has received the trade response determines whether or not the second user responds to the trade based on the received information (FIG. 12: step S408), and performs processing according to the determination (FIG. 12). 12: Step S409). For example, when the second user does not respond to the trade, the fact is notified to the terminal device 12A of the first user. When the second user responds to the trade, the terminal device 12A of the first user is notified to that effect, and the registered character information CC in the user information Q of the first user and the second user is updated. Thus, when a trade is established, both the first user and the second user can register a desired character, and can complete the pictorial book completion.

  As for the characters that have become registered characters in the pictorial book of the second user as a result of the above-described trade, as shown in FIG. 7, an image showing other registered characters acquired by the second user in an event such as a quest. You may make it display as identification area | region B63 so that it can identify with B20.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, when viewing a picture book of another user, a list of characters that are registered in the picture book of the other user and not yet registered in the picture book of the other user is displayed. Since it is displayed so that it can be identified from other characters, for example, even when applying for trade, other users can collect targets for collection of pictorial books, such as setting trade conditions higher. The game can be advantageously advanced.

Second Embodiment
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the first embodiment, registered characters registered in the first user's picture book and not yet registered in the second user's picture book can be identified from other characters in the identification area B60. The example displayed in the above has been described. In this embodiment, a character that is an unregistered character that has not been registered in the first user's picture book and that has already been registered in the second user's picture book can be identified from other characters. indicate.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of the pictorial book page P2 in the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 13, in the pictorial book page P2 of the present embodiment, an identification area B61 is displayed in addition to the identification area B60 described in the first embodiment. A character image is not displayed in the identification area B61. This is because the identification area B61 is a registered character that has already been registered in the second user's picture book but has not yet been registered in the first user's picture book. . For unregistered characters that are not yet registered in the first user's picture book, the image is not displayed on the first user's picture book page. Therefore, this embodiment employs such a configuration.

  When the identification area B61 is selected, a detail page P5 shown in FIG. 14 is displayed. As shown in FIG. 14, the detail page P5 includes a detailed information display area C1 and a screen operation area C2. In the detailed information display area C1, in addition to the image C10 showing the character, detailed information regarding the character is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 14, since it is a registered character that has already been registered in the second user's picture book, but is not yet registered in the first user's picture book, a question mark is displayed. ing.

  By viewing the detailed page P5, the first user can know the detailed information of the character that has not yet been registered in his / her own picture book but is registered in the second user's picture book. The detailed information is, for example, in which area the character is likely to appear, how much is distributed in the character information owned by all users, and the like. Moreover, you may make it apply for a trade about the said character.

  According to this embodiment, a character that is an unregistered character that has not yet been registered in the first user's picture book and that has already been registered in the second user's picture book is identified from other characters. Since the display is made possible, the first user can easily know where to obtain the character necessary for the picture book completion, for example, the game can be advantageously advanced toward the picture book completion. .

<Third Embodiment>
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the second embodiment, characters that are unregistered characters that are not yet registered in the first user's picture book and that are already registered in the second user's picture book can be identified from other characters. The example displayed in the above has been described. This embodiment displays an unregistered character that is not yet registered in the first user's picture book or in the second user's picture book so as to be distinguishable from other characters, and when the character is selected. An example of associating the first user with the second user will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the identification area B62 is displayed for unregistered characters that have not yet been registered in both the first and second embodiments in both the first and second user guides. The display mode is the same as in this embodiment. However, in the present embodiment, when the identification area B62 is selected, a detail page P5 as shown in FIG. 14 is displayed and the first user and the second user are associated with each other.

  Specifically, when the identification area B62 is selected, the terminal device 12A of the first user issues an association request to the management device 14A together with the identification information PID of the first user and the identification information PID of the second user. Send. The management apparatus 14A that has received the association request with these information writes, for example, a flag that associates the character information with each other in the fellow information FA in the user information Q of the first user and the second user by the association unit 59, for example. Like that. Then, the management device 14A notifies the terminal device 12A of the first user and the terminal device 12B of the second user that the association has been performed.

  By configuring in this way, the first user and the second user perform an event such as a quest while cooperating with each other. For example, one of the users displays the character with the association described above as a picture book. May be registered immediately in the other user's picture book. Further, when one of the users starts an event to search for and search for the character associated with the above-described relationship, information in the event may be sequentially notified to the other user.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, an unregistered character that has not yet been registered in the pictorial books of both the first user and the second user is displayed as an identification area B62 so as to be distinguishable from other characters. When selected, since they are associated with each other, for example, the game can be advantageously advanced toward the completion of the picture book.

<Modification>
The above-described embodiments can be variously modified. Specific modifications are exemplified below. Two or more modes arbitrarily selected from the following examples can be appropriately combined within a range that does not contradict each other.

(1) Modification 1
When completing the picture book using the functions of the above-described embodiments, for example, when the total number of registered characters reaches the threshold, or when the total number of registered characters with a predetermined attribute reaches the threshold May give a reward.

  When a character is registered at the time of executing an event such as a quest, or when a character is registered by trade or the like using the functions of the above-described embodiments, the terminal device 12 identifies the user of the terminal device 12 to the management device 14A. A registration request for the character is transmitted together with the identification information PID. Upon receiving the identification information PID and the registration request, the object registration unit 52 adds the character information to the possessed character information CA and the registered character information CC of the user information Q associated with the received identification information PID.

  The reward granting unit 57 determines whether the registered character satisfies a predetermined condition based on the registered character information CC. For example, it is determined whether the total number of registered characters has reached a threshold value, or whether the total number of registered characters having a predetermined attribute has reached a threshold value. When it is determined that the predetermined condition is satisfied, the reward granting unit 57 sets a reward according to the condition and notifies the terminal device 12 of the reward. The terminal device 12 that has received the notification displays that there is a reward in the notification display field or the like of the top screen P1. When the notification display field or the like is selected, the terminal device 12 transmits a reward page browsing request together with identification information PID for identifying the user of the terminal device 12 to the management device 14A. The reward granting unit 57 that has received the identification information PID and the browsing request creates information necessary for displaying the reward page for displaying the set reward. The reward granting unit 57 transmits information necessary for displaying the reward page to the terminal device 12 as a browsing response. The control device 20 of the terminal device 12 that has received the browsing response displays the reward page P4 on the display device 26 (FIG. 8: Step S114).

  FIG. 16 shows an example of the reward page P6. As shown in FIG. 16, the reward page P6 includes a title part D1, an explanation part D2, and a reward display part D3. The reward display section D3 is provided with a reward content display column D30, and a specific content of the reward is displayed in the reward content display column D30. The reward page P6 is also displayed when the reward button B13 on the pictorial book page P2 shown in FIG. 16 is selected, but is displayed when the predetermined condition regarding the character is satisfied and the notification column display is selected as described above. Is done. As described above, when the display of the notification column is selected, that is, when the reward page P4 is displayed after the character is acquired, the level-up button D31 is displayed in the reward content display column D30. FIG. 10 shows an example in which the content of the reward is displayed in the reward content display column D30, such as “Heat recovery time shortened by 18 seconds!”. When the user selects this level-up button D31, the reward content is given to the user. Here, the physical strength parameter recovered at every predetermined time of the user information Q of the server is changed by the reward. Then, the reward content displayed in the reward content display field D30 is leveled up according to the reward content previously set for each level (for example, “health recovery time is further reduced by 18 seconds!”). Be changed.

  In addition, the reward content display column D30 may be one or plural. In the example of FIG. 16, two reward content display fields D30 are displayed, but by scrolling the screen, more reward content display fields D30 are displayed.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, a reward is given according to the number of registered characters and the like, so that an incentive to progress through the game and acquire a character is given. Moreover, in this embodiment, since the page of the pictorial book which wants to browse can be rapidly displayed on 1st area | region B2, an unregistered character can be grasped | ascertained quickly, and it is a predetermined area in order to obtain reward quickly. The game can be progressed strategically, such as playing a game.

  In each of the above-described embodiments, the example in which the total number of registered characters is equal to or greater than the threshold value has been described as the condition for granting the reward. For example, when all the characters existing in the game are registered, the reward May be given. Further, a reward may be given when all characters having a predetermined rare degree (for example, rare +) are acquired. Furthermore, a reward may be given when all characters having a predetermined attribute (for example, fire attribute) are acquired. Alternatively, a reward may be given when all characters existing in a predetermined area are acquired. Moreover, you may make it provide a reward whenever it satisfy | fills these conditions.

(2) Modification 2
In each of the above-described embodiments, first, the registered character information CC in the user information Q of the first user and the entire character information R are compared to determine the registered character and the unregistered character in the first user's picture book. did. Further, by comparing the registered character information CC in the user information Q of the second user and the entire character information R, the registered character and the unregistered character in the second user's picture book are determined. Then, by comparing the registered or unregistered state of each character in the first user's picture book with the registered or unregistered state of each character in the second user's picture book, the display mode in the second user's picture book is changed. An example of determination has been described.

  However, the present invention is not limited to such an example, and the character abandoned by the first user may not be a comparison target. Specifically, by comparing the owned character information CA in the user information Q of the first user and the entire character information R, the owned character and the unregistered character or abandoned character in the first user's picture book are discriminated. . Furthermore, by comparing the owned character information CA in the user information Q of the second user with the entire character information R, the owned character and the unregistered character or the abandoned character in the second user's picture book are determined. Then, by comparing the possession or other state of each character in the first user's picture book with the possession or other state of each character in the second user's picture book, the display mode in the second user's picture book is determined. You may do it. In this way, it is possible to trade for a character or the like that is owned by any user and whose parameter has been upgraded.

(3) Modification 3
In each of the above-described embodiments and modifications, the example in which the first user can select only one identification area in the pictorial book of the second user has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to such an example. Alternatively, a plurality of identification areas may be selected. In this case, a plurality of characters can be selected as trade targets, and for example, the game can be efficiently advanced toward the complete picture book.

(4) Modification 4
In each embodiment and each modification mentioned above, when a 1st user selects the identification area of a 2nd user's picture book and trade is materialized after that, a pertinent character becomes a 2nd user or a 1st user's picture book. The registered example has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to such an example. When the first user selects the identification area of the second user's picture book, the corresponding character is immediately registered in the second user's picture book. May be. If it does in this way, a game can be advanced efficiently toward the completion of a picture book, for example.

  In the third embodiment described above, an unregistered character that has not yet been registered in the pictorial books of both the first user and the second user is displayed as an identification area B62 so as to be distinguishable from other characters. An example of associating each other when selected was described. However, the present invention is not limited to such an example. When the first user selects the identification area of the second user's picture book, the association unit 59 registers or does not register the character displayed in the identification area. The first user and the second user may be associated with each other regardless of the registration state. Specifically, when not registered in the first user's picture book and registered in the second user's picture book, the second user carries out the picture book trade with other users for the associated character. In such a case, the information is notified to the first user. In this way, the game can be progressed more strategically by browsing the picture book and selecting the identification area.

(5) Modification 5
In each of the above-described embodiments and modifications, examples have been described in which the initial order in the pictorial book is the area order. However, the present invention is not limited to such an example, and the rare order of characters may be set as the initial order. For example, normal, normal +, rare, rare +, S rare, S rare +, legend, etc., are in the order of low rareness or high rareness. You may arrange them.
