  The serial number is information indicated by the character numbers assigned in order from the first. Here, 10 characters are set as the lottery targets of the sub lottery. The character ID is a character ID of a character that is a lottery target determined by the lottery target control unit 203. The lottery probability is a lottery probability of the character to be a lottery determined by the lottery probability control unit 204. Here, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all characters is 100%. The rarity is information indicating the rarity (rare value) of a character to be a lottery target.

  Returning to FIG. 5, after that, when the sub lottery game screen is displayed on the screen display unit 160 of the client terminal 10, the user performs a game operation for starting the sub lottery on the client terminal 10.

  When the user's game operation is performed on the sub lottery game screen in this way, the operation reception unit 150 of the client terminal 10 receives the operation content based on the user's game operation (step S15).

  The request transmitting unit 101 of the client terminal 10 requests the server device 20 to execute the sub lottery game based on the operation content received by the operation receiving unit 150 from the user.

  Next, when the client terminal 10 requests execution of the sub lottery game, the lottery unit 205 of the server device 20 performs a process of assigning one of the characters to be selected in the sub lottery ( Step S16).

  Specifically, the lottery unit 205 of the server device 20 refers to the sub lottery object information set in the user information stored in the user information storage unit 222 when the user's game operation is performed, A character is selected from a part of the characters to be given to the user based on the lottery probability after each character rises. At this time, by updating the user information stored in the user information storage unit 222, the assigned character is set as the possessed character of the user.

<< Specific Example 1 >>
FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining a specific example 1 of the sub lottery.
Here, 100 types of rare 5 characters, 300 types of rare 4 characters, 600 types of rare 3 characters, that is, a total of 1000 characters are set as draw targets in the main draw. And

  In this case, the lottery probability per character is biased for each rare degree. For convenience, if the lottery probability per character is 0.1%, the lottery probability for all characters with a rare degree of 5 is 10%. The draw probability for all characters with a rarity 4 is set to 30%, and the draw probability for all characters with a rarity 3 is set to 60%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the main lottery is 100%.

  In the sub lottery in the present embodiment, the user can designate ten characters to be a lottery out of 1000 characters that can be a lottery target in the main lottery. Here, it is assumed that 1 type of rare 5 character, 3 types of rare 4 character, 6 types of rare 3 character, that is, a total of 10 characters are designated by the user.

  When ten characters are designated by the user, the lottery probability of each of the designated ten characters is increased. Here, by increasing the draw probability per character from 0.1% to 10%, the draw probability of all characters with a rarity level of 5 is 10%, the draw probability of all characters with a rarity level of 4 is 30%, The draw probability for all characters with a rarity of 3 will be set to 60%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery is maintained at 100%.

  In this way, the lottery object control unit 203 of the server device 20 performs control to reduce the lottery objects in the sub lottery from the 1000 lottery objects in the main lottery to 10 characters designated by the user in accordance with the user's designation operation. To do.

  Then, the lottery probability control unit 204 of the server device 20 raises the lottery probability set for each of the ten characters to be drawn in the sub lottery from 0.1% to 10%, thereby drawing in the main lottery. The total sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters that can be the target and the total sum of the probable lottery probabilities of some of the characters that are subject to the lottery in the sub lottery are the same 100%. Take control.

  As a result, in the sub lottery, the lottery probability of the desired character designated by the user is 100 times (0.1% → 10%) as compared with the main lottery, so that the user can easily acquire the desired character.

  When the predetermined condition is satisfied, it is possible to allow the user to designate a number of characters (for example, 5) that is less than 10. For example, for example, five characters may be designated by the user on condition that the user consumes his / her virtual currency or a predetermined item. In this case, the lottery probabilities of all the five characters are increased, and the total lottery probabilities after the increase are controlled to be 100%. Furthermore, in this case, when any of the five characters is won, the level or parameter set for the selected character can be made lower than the original value.

<< Specific Example 2 >>
FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining a specific example 2 of the sub lottery.
Here, as in the above-mentioned sub lottery example 1, there are 100 types of rare 5 characters, 300 rare 4 characters, 600 rare 3 characters, that is, 1000 characters in total. Is set as a lottery target in the main lottery. At this time, it is assumed that 10 points are set for a character with a rarity level of 5, 10 points for a character with a rarity level of 4, and 1 point for a character with a rarity level of 3 based on the character information. It is also possible to set points for each character instead of points according to the rarity.

  In this case, as in the first sub-lottery example 1 described above, the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 5 is 10%, the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 4 is 30%, and the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 3 Will be set to 60%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the main lottery is 100%.

  In this specific example 2, the “point system” is used when the user designates the lottery object in the sub lottery. That is, in the sub lottery in the present embodiment, the total points of the ten characters that are the lottery targets of the sub lottery out of the 1,000 characters that can be the lottery target in the main lottery are specified not to exceed 31 points. can do. Here, one type of character with a rarity level 5 (10 points x 1 = 10 points), 3 types of characters with a rarity level 4 (5 points x 3 = 15 points), and 6 types of characters with a rarity level 3 ( 1 point × 6 = 6 points), that is, 10 characters whose total points are 31 points are designated by the user.

  When ten characters are designated by the user so that the total points are 31 points, the lottery probability of each of the designated ten characters is increased. Here, in the same way as in the above-described sub lottery example 1, by increasing the lottery probability per character to 10%, all the characters with a rarity level of 5 have a lottery probability of 10% and all the characters with a rarity level of 4 The lottery probability is set to 30%, and the lottery probability of all the characters with the rare degree 3 is set to 60%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery is maintained at 100%.

  As described above, the lottery object control unit 203 of the server device 20 does not exceed the predetermined point (for example, 31 points) by adding the point values of the ten characters specified by the user according to the user's specifying operation. In this way, control is performed to reduce the lottery object in the sub lottery from 1000 lottery objects in the main lottery.

  Then, the lottery probability control unit 204 of the server device 20 raises the lottery probability set for each of the ten characters to be drawn in the sub lottery from 0.1% to 10%, thereby drawing in the main lottery. The total sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters that can be the target and the total sum of the probable lottery probabilities of some of the characters that are subject to the lottery in the sub lottery are the same 100%. Take control.

  As a result, in the sub lottery, the probability of the desired character specified by the user using the points is 100 times (0.1% → 10%) compared to the main lottery. Therefore, the user selects the desired character. It becomes easy to acquire.

  Although the total points will be 31 points, if it is less than 10 characters, it may be supplemented by other characters (rare degree 2 characters or rare degree 1 characters) that are not included in the main lottery. Is possible. In this case, the points of the other characters (rare degree 2 character and rare degree 1 character) are set to 0 points. For example, there are 3 types of rare 5 characters (10 points x 3 = 30 points), 0 types of rare 4 characters (5 points x 0 = 0 points), and 1 type of rare 3 characters (1 (Points × 1 = 1 point) In other words, it is assumed that four characters having a total point of 31 points are designated by the user. In this case, the six characters that are insufficient are supplemented with a character with a rarity level 2 or a character with a rarity level 1. Even if the shortage is compensated in this way, since the character of the rare degree 2 and the character of the rare degree 1 are 0 points, the total points to be drawn in the sub lottery do not exceed 31 points.

  Further, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, if the total number of points is 31 points, it is possible to allow the user to specify a number of characters less than 10 (for example, 5). For example, on condition that the user consumes his / her own virtual currency or a predetermined item, the user may designate fewer than 10 characters (for example, 5) so that the total number of points is 31 points. Good. In this case, the lottery probabilities of all the five characters are raised, and the lottery probabilities after the rise are controlled so as to become 100%. Furthermore, in this case, when any of the five characters is won, the level or parameter set for the selected character can be made lower than the original value.

  In addition to setting points for each character, it is also possible to set points for the right to select a lottery method. In this case, the user can select so that the total number of points combining each character and the selection right is 31 points. For example, assuming that 10 points are set for the selection right, when the total number of points is 21 when 10 characters are designated by the user, the user uses the remaining 10 points for the selection right. Can be specified. When this selection right is designated, the probability of the lottery after the increase set for each remaining character is reduced according to the number of remaining characters reduced from 10 characters for each sub lottery. Is controlled to further increase. Thereby, the sub lottery is repeated, and as the number of remaining characters decreases, it becomes possible to increase the lottery probability of each remaining character stepwise.

<< Specific Example 3 >>
FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining a specific example 3 of the sub lottery.
Here, as in the above-mentioned sub lottery example 1, there are 100 types of rare 5 characters, 300 rare 4 characters, 600 rare 3 characters, that is, 1000 characters in total. Is set as a lottery target in the main lottery.

  In this case, as in the first sub-lottery example 1 described above, the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 5 is 10%, the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 4 is 30%, and the lottery probability of all characters with a rarity level 3 Will be set to 60%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the main lottery is 100%.

  In the sub lottery in the present embodiment, the user can designate ten characters to be a lottery out of 1000 characters that can be a lottery target in the main lottery. Here, as in the above-described sub lottery example 1, there are 1 type of rare 5 character, 3 types of rare 4 character, and 6 types of rare 3 character, that is, 10 characters in total. Is specified by the user. At this time, based on the character information, 5 types of material characters that are required to synthesize the character with the highest rarity level 5 among the specified characters are automatically added as lottery targets for the sub lottery. The

  When ten characters are designated by the user, the lottery probability of each of the designated ten characters is increased. Here, by increasing the draw probability per character from 0.1% to 8%, the draw probability of all characters with a rarity 5 is 8%, the draw probability of all characters with a rarity 4 is 24%, The draw probability of all characters with a rarity of 3 will be set to 48%. Furthermore, for a material character required for synthesis of a character with a rarity level 5, the lottery probability per character is 4%, and the lottery probability of all the material characters is set to 20%. Therefore, the sum of the lottery probabilities of all the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery is maintained at 100%.

  In this manner, the lottery target control unit 203 of the server device 20 changes the lottery targets in the sub lottery from the 1000 lottery targets in the main lottery according to the user's designation operation, and the 10 characters and rareness 5 specified by the user. Control to reduce to 5 material characters required to synthesize the character.

  Then, the lottery probability control unit 204 of the server device 20 raises the lottery probability set for each of the ten characters to be drawn in the sub lottery from 0.1% to 8%, thereby drawing in the main lottery. Control is performed so that the total value of the lottery probabilities of all the characters that can be the target and the total value of the lottery probabilities of some of the characters that are subject to the lottery in the sub lottery are the same 100%. .

  As a result, in the sub lottery, the randomness probability of the desired character designated by the user is 80 times (0.1% → 8%) compared to the main lottery, so that the user can easily acquire the desired character. , It also makes it easier to acquire material characters that are needed to synthesize the most rare character specified by the user.

  It is also possible to use the “point system” as in the above-described sub lottery specific example 2. In this case, it is specified that the total points of 10 characters that are the lottery targets of the sub lottery out of 1000 characters that can be the lottery targets in the main lottery do not exceed 31 points. However, the points of 5 material characters that are automatically added are 0 points. Thereby, even if a material character is automatically added, the total number of lottery targets in the sub lottery does not exceed 31 points.

[Other Embodiments]
The above-described embodiments are for facilitating understanding of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention can be changed and improved without departing from the gist thereof, and the present invention includes equivalents thereof. In particular, the embodiments described below are also included in the present invention.

<Point system>
In the embodiment described above, in the sub lottery, the total points of some of the characters that can be the lottery for the main lottery exceed the predetermined points (for example, 31 points) out of all the characters that can be the lottery for the main lottery. Although the case where it can be specified not to have been described as an example, the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, as a result of the user designating a part of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery, the total points of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery may exceed a predetermined point. However, in this case, the parameter control unit 206 performs control to reduce predetermined parameters (ability parameters, levels, etc.) of some characters designated by the user. This adjusts the balance between the character's total points and the character's strength.

  Further, for example, only when the user consumes his / her virtual currency or a predetermined item, the total points of some of the characters to be selected in the sub lottery may exceed the predetermined point. That is, the lottery target control unit 203 performs control to allow the total points obtained by adding the point values of some characters to exceed a predetermined point on condition that the user's virtual currency or a predetermined item is consumed. By providing such a condition, it is possible to limit the total points of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery so as not to always exceed the predetermined points.

  In addition, for example, when the user designates a part of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery and the total points of some of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery exceed a predetermined point, the sub lottery is performed. The cost of consumption may be increased. Specifically, the consumption cost possessed by the user is set in the user information. The lottery unit 205 assigns content selected from a part of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery on condition that the user's consumption cost is reduced by a predetermined amount. Then, the lottery target control unit 203 increases the total points of some of the characters that are the lottery targets of the sub lottery on the condition that the user's consumption cost consumed by the lottery unit 205 is increased from the predetermined amount. Control to allow By providing such a condition, it is possible to suppress the total points of the characters to be drawn in the sub lottery so as not to easily exceed the predetermined points.

  In the above-described embodiment, when the same type of character is designated redundantly from all the characters that can be drawn in the main lottery, the character point designated the second time is designated the first time. It may be higher than the character's point. For example, if a character with a rarity level of 5 is specified in duplicate, it is 10 points when specified for the first time, but is increased to 15 points when specified for the second time. As a result, two of the ten characters become characters with a rarity of 5, which is advantageous for the user, but the total points tend to reach a predetermined point, which is disadvantageous, so that the game balance can be adjusted.

  In the above-described embodiment, the point value may be set depending on whether or not the user already has a character to be selected in the sub drawing selected from all the characters that can be selected in the main drawing. Is possible. For example, a rare 5 character that the user has not yet possessed is 10 points, but a rare 5 character that the user already possesses is 15 points. This makes it easier for the user to acquire the same character that the user already has, which is advantageous for the user (because it can be leveled up in a synthetic game), but the total points tend to reach a predetermined point, which is disadvantageous. Therefore, the game balance can be adjusted.

<Quest>
In the above-described embodiment, in a battle game, a character set to be acquirable by a quest may be given to a user. In this case, in the same way as the sub lottery described above, it is possible to narrow down some characters including the character designated by the user from all the characters to be acquired in the quest. At this time, the appearance probability of each of the narrowed-down characters is increased. Thereby, the appearance probability set corresponding to each character can be raised by narrowing down the acquisition target of a quest so that the character which a user desires may be included. As a result, the user can easily obtain the desired character.

<Content>
In the above-described embodiment, the character set in the character information has been described as the content, but the content is not limited to this. For example, the content may be an item, card, figure, avatar or the like.
