The strength is calculated, and the strength (HP) of the boss character is reduced based on the calculated magnitude of damage.

  After that, the battle processing unit 212 of the player terminal 20 determines whether or not the boss character associated with the target has been destroyed by the attack by the player character.

  For example, if the attack by the player character is performed, and the strength (HP) of the boss character associated with the target decreases, the remaining strength falls below a predetermined value (for example, zero), It is determined that the boss character has been destroyed.

  If it is determined that the boss character has not been defeated by this determination, the player's defeat is determined, and if it is determined that the boss character has been defeated, the player's victory is determined.

  The battle processing unit 212 of the player terminal 20 transmits the target occupancy request to the server device 10 together with the play result of the battle game when the battle game process is executed in this manner and the battle game is ended.

  Next, when the server device 10 receives a target occupancy request from the player terminal 20 of the player who has played the battle game, a target occupancy process for determining a team that occupies the target based on the play result of the battle game. Execute (step S106).

  Specifically, when the player's victory (that is, the defeat of the boss character) is determined by the play result of the battle game, the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 receives the game map information shown in FIG. Update and set the target as occupied by the team to which the player belongs. On the other hand, when the player's defeat (that is, victory of the boss character) is determined by the play result of the battle game, the occupancy state of the target is updated without updating the game map information shown in FIG. Keep it as it is.

  Next, the server apparatus 10 determines whether or not a predetermined period (for example, two months) has elapsed since the team match was started while the team match is continuing in this way (step S107).

  As a result of this determination, when it is determined that the predetermined period has not passed yet (step S107: NO), the process returns to the above-described step S102, and the game map screen is displayed on the player terminal 20 according to the player's movement. Ru. On the other hand, when it is determined that the predetermined period has elapsed (step S107: YES), the process proceeds to the next step S108.

  Next, the server device 10 calculates a team point of each team when a predetermined period has elapsed since the start of the team battle, and determines the outcome of the team battle based on the calculated team points of each team. (Step S108).

  Specifically, the winning and losing determination processing unit 114 of the server device 10 calculates team points based on the size of the occupied area of the team formed by connecting only the targets occupied by the team. That is, with reference to the game map information shown in FIG. 5 and the team information shown in FIG. 8, the winning / losing decision processing unit 114 of the server device 10 extracts the occupied area of the team from the game map, Give the team a number of points according to the size of each occupied area. Then, the team that has won many team points is decided as the winning team. Here, the size of the occupied area is determined by, for example, the number of targets occupied by one team and continuously connected.

  In the present embodiment, the number of points of the square of the number of targets constituting the occupied area is given to the team. For example, when the number of targets constituting the occupied area of a team is "one" (ie, one target occupied by a team is isolated), the size of the occupied area is "level 1". One point is given to the team. Further, when the number of targets constituting the occupied area is "two", the size of the occupied area is "level 2" and "four points" are given. When the number of targets constituting the occupied area is “3”, the size of the occupied area is “level 3” and “9 points” are given. When the number of targets constituting the occupied area is "4", the size of the occupied area is "level 4" and "16 points" are given. Further, when the number of targets constituting the occupied area is "five", the size of the occupied area is "level 5" and "25 points" is given.

  More specifically, as shown in FIG. 11, as a result of the team match, four targets (“A1”, “B1”, “C1”, “D1”) are occupied by the first team, and the second team It is assumed that four targets ("A2", "B2", "C2", "D2") are occupied. In this case, for the first team, an occupied area of “Level 1” configured by one target (“D1”) and three targets (“A1”, “B1”, “C1”) are configured The occupied area of "level 3" is extracted. Therefore, the team points of the first team are 10 points (1 point + 9 points = 10 points). On the other hand, for the second team, the “Level 4” occupied area constituted by four targets (“A2”, “B2”, “C2”, “D2”) is extracted. Therefore, the team points of the second team are 16 points. Therefore, the second team is the winning team because the second team has gained more team points than the first team.

  Thus, the size of the area occupied by a team is determined by the number (level number) of targets connected continuously. And, as the area occupied by a team increases, more team points can be earned. However, the larger the area occupied by the team, the easier it will be for the other team to steal targets in the occupied area. If the opposing team loses the target, there is a possibility that their team points will be greatly reduced and reversed.

  Then, the outcome determination processing unit 114 of the server device 10 updates the team information shown in FIG. 8 and registers the team points of the first team and the second team thus calculated.

  Next, when the winning team of the team match is determined by thus comparing the team points of each team in this manner, the reward giving processing unit 115 of the server device 10 rewards the determined winning team (for example, , A character, an item, a skill, etc.) (step S109).

  As described above, according to the game system 1 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to acquire many team points by enlarging the occupied area of the own team in the game map, so it is possible to advance the team match advantageously it can. On the other hand, by enlarging the occupied area of the own team in the game map, it becomes easy for the opponent team to steal the target in the occupied area. Therefore, how to form the own team's occupied area on the game map affects the outcome of the game. By utilizing the area occupied by the team in this manner, it is possible to improve the team match strategy.

=== Other Embodiments ===
The above embodiments are for the purpose of facilitating the understanding of the present invention, and are not for the purpose of limiting the present invention. The present invention can be modified or improved without departing from the gist thereof, and the present invention also includes the equivalents thereof. In particular, the embodiments described below are also included in the present invention.

<Attack skill>
In the above-described embodiment, the player may attack the boss character using an attack skill owned by the player when playing the battle game. For example, when a player arrives at a target, by using the attack skill when playing against the boss character associated with that target, it is only necessary to damage the boss character associated with that target. Alternatively, characters associated with other targets connected to that target may be damaged in a chain.

  Specifically, the battle processing unit 212 of the player terminal 20 requests the target occupancy together with the amount of damage the boss character associated with the target receives due to the player performing the attack operation using his attack skill. Is sent to the server device 10.

  When the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 receives the target occupancy request from the player terminal 20, the target occupancy processing unit 113 refers to the game map information shown in FIG. 5 and specifies another target to be the link destination connected to the target. Then, the same amount of damage as the amount of damage received by the boss character associated with the target is given to the boss character associated with the other target that is the specified link destination. At this time, the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 updates the game map information shown in FIG. 5 to reduce the physical strength (HP) of the boss character associated with the other target that is the link destination. Below, it demonstrates more concretely using FIG.

FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining a chain attack on a target.
First, as shown in FIG. 13A, targets “A1”, “B1”, and “C1” are connected on the game map, and each target is occupied by the first team. Therefore, it is assumed that the player in the second team has attacked the boss character associated with the target "A1".

  Next, as shown in FIG. 13B, as a result of the player in the second team attacking the boss character associated with the target “A1” as a result of the attack, the boss character is destroyed. It is assumed that the team has taken the target "A1" from the first team and occupied it.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 13C, the second team player's attacks on the boss characters associated with the target “A1” are linked in sequence, and the link target “B1” is linked from the target “A1”. The same damage is given to the boss character associated with “1”, and the same damage is given to the boss character associated with the target “C1” of the link destination linked from the target “A1”.

  As a result, not only the occupancy of the target “A1” but also the adjacent other targets “B1” and “C1” can be easily occupied together.

  Note that the boss character associated with the other target to which the link is made may not receive the same amount of damage as the damage amount received by the boss character associated with the target as the start point, for example You may do half damage.

<Attack skill for occupied area>
In the above-described embodiment, when the current position of the player of the own team is positioned at any one of the occupied areas of the opposing team in the game map, the player of the own team is associated with the target. When playing against a boss character, you may attack using your own attack skills for your occupied area. For example, when the player of the own team arrives at the target in the occupied area of the opposing team, the attack skill for the occupied area is used at the time of the match against the boss character associated with the target, thereby matching the target In addition to damaging the boss character, it is also possible to damage the characters associated with other targets connected continuously.

  Specifically, the battle processing unit 212 of the player terminal 20 has a boss character associated with the target of the opponent, as the player of the own team performs the attack operation using the attack skill for the own area. The target occupancy request is sent to the server apparatus 10 together with the amount of damage received.

  When the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 receives the target occupancy request from the player terminal 20, the target occupancy processing unit 113 refers to the game map information shown in FIG. 5 and becomes a link destination continuously connected to the target of the other party. For the boss character associated with the other target of the specified link destination with the other target of the opponent specified, the amount of damage received by the boss character associated with the target of the other party Do the same amount of damage. At this time, the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 updates the game map information shown in FIG. 5 and reduces the physical strength (HP) of the boss character associated with the other target of the link destination. Let Below, it demonstrates more concretely using FIG.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining a chain attack on targets of opponents constituting an occupied area of the opponent team. In the following, as shown in parentheses in the figure, the case where a four-step chained attack is performed will be described.

  First, the occupied area of "Level 7" as a result of the opponent team occupying seven targets ("A1", "B1", "C1", "D1", "E1", "F1", "G1") Shall be formed. Therefore, it is assumed that the player of the own team has attacked the boss character associated with the target “A1” in the occupied area of the opposing team.

  Next, when the attack of the player of the own team causes damage to the boss character associated with the target “A1” (first stage), the boss character associated with the target “A1” is associated with the target “B1”. The same boss character is given the same damage (the second step), and it is associated with the target “C1” (that is, the target “C1” indirectly connected to the target “A1”) directly connected to the target “B1” The same boss character is given the same damage (third step), and further, targets “D1”, “E1”, “F1” (that is, targets “A1” indirectly) that are directly connected to the target “C1” The same damage is given to each boss character associated with the target “D1”, “E1”, “F1”) leading to (Fourth stage).

  As a result, it becomes easy to occupy not only the target "A1" of the other party but also other targets "B1" to "F1" of the other party continuously connected from there.

  Note that the boss character associated with the other target to which the link is made may not receive the same amount of damage as the damage amount received by the boss character associated with the target as the start point, for example You may give half of the damage, or you may give smaller damage as you move away from the starting target.

In addition, depending on the type (for example, level) of the attack skill for the occupied area, it is also possible to gradually change the scope of the attack.
For example, as shown in FIG. 14, when the opposing team forms an occupied area of “Level 7”, the boss character in which the player of the own team is associated with the target “A1” of the occupied areas of the opposing team On the other hand, it is assumed that the player attacked using the attack skill for the occupied area of “Level 2”. In this case, if damage is given to the boss character associated with the target “A1” by the attack of the player of the own team (first stage), the target “A1” is directly linked to the target “B1”. Damage is also given to the attached boss character (second stage). At this time, the attack does not reach the targets “C1”, “D1”, “E1”, “F1” and “G1”. Similarly, when attacking using the attack skill for the occupied area of “level 3”, if the attack of the player of the own team causes damage to the boss character associated with the target “A1” (No. Damage is also given to the boss character associated with target “B1” that is directly linked to target “A1” (step 2) (target “C1” that is directly linked to target “B1”) (In other words, the boss character associated with the target "C1" indirectly connected to the target "A1") is also damaged (third stage). At this time, the attack does not extend to the targets “D1”, “E1”, “F1”, and “G1”.

<Defense skills>
In the present embodiment described above, it is also possible to set a defense skill for the targets constituting the occupied area, in order to be able to counter the attack using the attack skill for the above-mentioned occupied area. For example, when a player of the opposing team arrives at a target in the occupied area of the opposing team, by setting defense skills to that target, even if an attack using an attack skill for the occupied area is received from the own team. It is possible to reduce the damage that the character associated with the other targets connected in series will receive.

  Specifically, the battle processing unit 212 of the player terminal 20 receives the boss character associated with the opponent's target as the player of the own team performs the attack operation using the attack skill for the occupied area. The target occupancy request is sent to the server apparatus 10 together with the amount of damage.

  When the target occupancy processing unit 113 of the server device 10 receives the target occupancy request from the player terminal 20, the target occupancy processing unit 113 refers to the game map information shown in FIG. 5 and becomes a link destination continuously connected to the target of the other party. For the boss character associated with the other target of the specified link destination with the other target of the opponent specified, the amount of damage received by the boss character associated with the target of the other party Do the same amount of damage. At this time, with reference to the game map information shown in FIG. 5, among the other targets of the link destination connected directly and indirectly to the target of the opponent, the other target of the opponent for whom the defense skill is set. Control to prevent damage to the character associated with the target. Below, it demonstrates more concretely using FIG.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining the case where a defense skill is set for the target of the opponent constituting the occupied area of the opponent team shown in FIG.

  First, it is assumed that the "defense skill DF" is set for the target "C1" among the targets of the opponent forming the "level 7" occupied area of the opponent team. Then, it is assumed that the player of the own team has attacked the boss character associated with the target “A1” in the occupied area of the opposing team.

  Next, when the attack of the player of the own team causes damage to the boss character associated with the target “A1” (first stage), the boss character associated with the target “A1” is associated with the target “B1”. The same damage is dealt to the boss character (stage 2). However, since the defense skill is set to target “C1” directly linked to target “B1” (that is, target “C1” indirectly linked to target “A1”), it is associated with target “C1”. Damaged boss characters are not dealt. Furthermore, it is possible to prevent damage to each of the boss characters associated with the targets "D1", "E1", and "F1" directly or indirectly connected to the target "C1". .

<Occupied area>
In the above embodiment, the size of the occupied area may be defined as the number of links between continuously connected targets among the targets occupied by one team. In this case, even if the number of continuously linked targets is the same between teams, the team with the larger number of links between targets can earn more points.

<Game Map>
In the above-described embodiment, the player may be displayed to move on the game map in the virtual space according to the movement distance and movement direction of the player in the real space. Moreover, the targets arranged in the game map may not be associated with the facilities on the map in the real space.
