Description

  The present invention relates to a server, a control program thereof, and a system.

  In recent years, servers that provide games to mobile terminals via communication networks have become widespread. There are games provided by such servers that allow multiple users to participate (so-called “social games”), and users can communicate with each other in addition to battles and cooperation. (For example, Patent Document 1).

  Further, as such a social game, for example, a game (so-called “card battle game”) for playing a battle against an enemy using a card is known (for example, Patent Document 2). In the card battle game, the user battles the enemy prepared on the game program using the card. The user can carry any number of cards. The user configures the deck using at least one card from the possessed cards. Each card has parameters such as level, attack power, defense power, physical strength, etc., and the enemy's physical strength parameter value is decreased according to the parameter value of the card constituting the deck. The enemy also has the same parameters as the card, and reduces the card's physical strength parameter value according to the parameter value. By alternately attacking, the battle ends when the health parameter value of the card constituting the deck becomes 0 or the enemy's health parameter value becomes 0.
