<< Operation of Game System 1 >>
<Overall operation>
FIG. 11 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example of the game system 1 according to the present embodiment. Below, the operation example regarding the event game which can be played in the preset event period is demonstrated concretely.

  When the player terminal 20 performs an operation of designating a possessed character constituting a deck used for a battle in an event quest when a deck organization screen (not shown) is displayed on the terminal display unit 24, the player terminal 20 performs deck organization. The request is transmitted to the server device 10. Thereafter, when the server device 10 receives the deck organization request transmitted from the player terminal 20, the server device 10 sets the deck of the player. That is, the deck organization processing unit 111 organizes a deck constituted by a plurality of owned characters designated by the player, and sets the deck information shown in FIG. 8 (step S101).

  Next, when a quest selection screen (not shown) is displayed on the terminal display unit 24, the player terminal 20 performs an operation of selecting an event quest to be played using the deck from various event quests. If it is performed, the quest selection request is transmitted to the server device 10. Thereafter, when receiving the quest selection request transmitted from the player terminal 20, the server device 10 sets a battle with the enemy character in the event quest. That is, the battle processing unit 112A sets the order in which each of the player deck and the enemy character performing the battle in the selected event quest acts after the battle starts (step S102).

  Next, the battle processing unit 112A of the server device 10 starts the battle between the player deck and the enemy character by setting the action order in this way, and performs an attack on the opponents according to the set action order. Make it. For example, the battle processing unit 112A refers to the deck information shown in FIG. 8 and the quest information shown in FIG. 9 according to the action order of the player deck, based on the attack power of the player deck and the defense power of the enemy character, etc. The amount of damage that the player deck gives to the enemy character is calculated, and the physical strength (HP) of the enemy character is reduced according to the amount of damage (step S103).

  Next, the battle processing unit 112A of the server device 10 determines whether or not one of the wins is determined based on the battle result between the player deck and the enemy character. For example, whether or not the battle processing unit 112A was able to reduce the physical strength (HP) of the enemy character to a predetermined value or less (for example, zero value or less) as a result of the enemy character being damaged by the attack of the player deck. Determine. When it is determined that the enemy character's physical strength (HP) has decreased to a predetermined value or less, the player deck is determined to win. Further, as a result of damage to the player deck due to the attack of the enemy character, it is determined whether or not the physical strength (HP) of the player deck can be reduced to a predetermined value or less (for example, zero value or less). If it is determined that the physical strength (HP) of the player deck has decreased to a predetermined value or less, victory of the enemy character is determined (step S104).

  As a result of this determination, if it is determined that the player deck has been defeated (that is, the enemy character has won) (step S104: defeat), the process returns to the processing of step S102 described above, assuming that the player has failed to clear the quest. , Let the player select one of the various quests again. On the other hand, if it is determined that the player deck has won (that is, the enemy character has been defeated) (step S104: victory), the process proceeds to the next step S105.

  Next, when it is determined that the player deck has won (that is, the enemy character has been defeated) based on the result of the battle between the player deck and the enemy character, the server device 10 obtains event-dedicated points that can be used only during this event period. Grant to players. That is, the point grant processing unit 112D refers to the quest information shown in FIG. 9 and identifies the event-specific points set for the defeated enemy character. Then, the player information shown in FIG. 5 is updated, and the specified event-dedicated point is added to the event-dedicated point owned by the player (step S105).

  Next, the server device 10 determines whether or not the player deck has played against all enemy characters set in the event quest. That is, the battle processing unit 112A refers to the quest information shown in FIG. 9, and based on the battle result with each enemy character set in the event quest selected by the player, the physical strength ( It is determined whether (HP) has decreased to a predetermined value or less (step S106).

  As a result of this determination, if it is determined that the player deck does not play against all the enemy characters set in the event quest (step S106: NO), the process returns to the above-described step S103, and the remaining enemy characters. Continue to play against. On the other hand, if it is determined that the player deck has played against all enemy characters set in the event quest (step S106: YES), the process proceeds to the next step S107.

  Next, when the player deck battles all enemy characters set in the event quest, the reward grant processing unit 112E of the server device 10 determines that the event quest has been cleared, and rewards the player with an event reward. (Step S107). In this embodiment, a token is given to the player as an event reward. This token can only be used during the current event period. Therefore, the player must exchange the acquired token for an item within the current event period. The specific processing related to the event reward will be described in detail later.

  In the present embodiment, if the event quest can be cleared as a result of playing the event game, an experience value is given to each character constituting the player deck. And the level of the character which comprises a player deck may rise based on the experience value acquired in this way. In this case, the first parameter fluctuation processing unit 112B increases various ability parameters (attack power, defense power, physical strength, speed) of the upgraded character by a predetermined amount. Note that at least one of various ability parameters (attack power, defense power, physical strength, speed) of the upgraded character may be increased.

  Next, the battle processing unit 112A of the server device 10 determines whether or not the event period of the event game has ended. In the present embodiment, it is determined whether or not one week has elapsed from the event start date (step S108).

  As a result of this determination, if it is determined that the event period of this event game has not ended (step S108: NO), the process returns to the above-described step S102, and any quest is selected from various quests. Let the player choose again. On the other hand, when it is determined that the event period of this event game has ended (step S108: YES), this process ends.

<Use of event-dedicated points>
FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example related to the use of the event dedicated point. The player who plays the event game can increase the ability parameter of the deck used in the event game by using the event-dedicated points acquired in the event game. This event-dedicated point can be used only during the current event period. Therefore, a player who plays an event game can further strengthen his / her deck by using event-dedicated points during the current event period.

  The player terminal 20 transmits a point use request to the server device 10 when an operation for using the event-dedicated point is performed by the player while a menu screen (not shown) is displayed on the terminal display unit 24 ( Step S201).

  Next, when the server device 10 receives the point use request transmitted from the player terminal 20, it determines whether or not the player owns at least one event-dedicated point used to increase the deck's ability parameter. Determination is made (step S202). That is, the second parameter variation processing unit 112C refers to the player information shown in FIG. 5 and determines whether or not the event-dedicated points owned by the player have reached one event-dedicated point. The event-dedicated points for one time may be, for example, “10 points” for every use, or as the number of use increases, “10 points” for the first time, “20 points” for the second time, The number of points may be gradually increased like “30 points”.

  As a result of this determination, when it is determined that the player does not own one or more event-dedicated points (step S202: NO), this process is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that the player has at least one event-dedicated point (step S202: YES), the process proceeds to the next step S203.

  Next, when it is determined that the player owns one or more event-dedicated points, the server device 10 generates screen data generation processing for point use screen data for allowing the player to use the event-dedicated points. Generated by the unit 113. Then, the server device 10 transmits the point use screen data generated by the screen data generation processing unit 113 to the requesting player terminal 20 via the network. Upon receiving the screen data transmitted from the server device 10, the player terminal 20 analyzes the screen data to display the point use screen on the terminal display unit 24 (step S203).

  FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of the point use screen 50. The point use screen 50 includes a point display area 51 and a parameter selection area 52. The point display area 51 is an area for displaying event-dedicated points owned by the player. The parameter selection area 52 is an area for allowing the player to select an ability parameter of any deck. The parameter selection area 52 includes operation buttons 52a to 52d corresponding to various capability parameters. When one of the operation buttons 52a to 52d is selected, the player can increase the level of the ability parameter corresponding to the selected operation button by one step by using one event-dedicated point. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, when the player owns only “30 points” for event, the deck is strengthened by using “10 points” for event once for 3 times. it can. Here, assuming that the operation button 52b is selected for the first time, the operation button 52c is selected for the second time, and the operation button 52d is sequentially selected for the third time by a player who places importance on the balance type, the total is “30 points”. Is used, the level is increased by one step in the order of “defense power”, “health strength”, and “speed”, and all four ability parameters become “level 2”. On the other hand, if all the operation buttons 52a from the first time to the third time are selected by the player who attaches importance to the attack type, a total of “30 points” is used, so that the “attack power” level is 3 As a result, the ability parameter of only “Attack” is changed from “Level 2” to “Level 5”. In this way, the characteristics of the deck change depending on which ability parameter is given higher priority among “attack power”, “defense power”, “physical power”, and “speed”. Therefore, the player can strengthen the deck while taking into consideration the battle situation in the quest, etc., and making a strategy such as which ability parameter is to be given priority.

  Next, returning to FIG. 12, when the player terminal 20 displays the point use screen 50 in this way on the terminal display unit 24, the player terminal 20 selects the operation buttons 52 a to 52 d by operating the player. The selection input of the ability parameter for increasing the level is accepted (step S204). Thereafter, the player terminal 20 transmits a parameter increase request for increasing the ability parameter of the selected deck to the server device 10.

  Next, when the server apparatus 10 receives the parameter increase request transmitted from the player terminal 20, in order to increase the ability parameter of the deck selected by the player, the server apparatus 10 is dedicated to one event from the event dedicated point owned by the player. Points are used (step S205). That is, the second parameter variation processing unit 112C updates the player information shown in FIG. 5 to reduce one event dedicated point from the event dedicated points owned by the player. If a plurality of deck ability parameters are selected on the point use screen 50, the event-dedicated points for one time are reduced by the number of times of selection.

  Next, when the event-dedicated points for one time are used in this way, the server device 10 increases the ability parameter of the deck selected by the player on the point use screen 50 shown in FIG. 13 (step S206). That is, the second parameter fluctuation processing unit 112C increases the level of the ability parameter of the deck selected by the player by one step by using one event-dedicated point. When a plurality of deck ability parameters are selected on the point use screen 50, the ability parameter level of each deck selected by the player is increased by one level. Then, the second parameter fluctuation processing unit 112C updates the deck information shown in FIG. 8, and sets the level after the increase of various ability parameters as an influence on the point use.

<Deck ability parameter determination method>
FIG. 14 is a flowchart for explaining a method for determining a deck ability parameter in an event game. In the event game in this embodiment, if the ability parameter of the characters that make up the deck increases due to the level up, or if the level of the deck's ability parameter increases as a result of the use of event dedicated points, The size of the ability parameter is determined again.

  First, the server device 10 calculates a temporary capacity parameter of the deck (step S301). That is, the battle processing unit 112A refers to the deck information shown in FIG. 8 and acquires the ability parameters (attack power, defense power, physical strength, speed) of each character constituting the deck. Then, for each type of ability parameter, a temporary ability parameter of the deck is obtained by adding up the acquired ability parameters of each character.

  For example, if the ability parameters of the five characters that make up the deck are all “attack power: 100”, “defense power: 100”, “health power: 100”, and “speed: 100”, Since the ability parameter is the total of these five characters, they are “attack strength: 500”, “defense strength: 500”, “physical strength: 500”, and “speed: 500”.

  Next, the server device 10 obtains a magnification for each level of the deck ability parameter (step S302). That is, the battle processing unit 112A refers to the “effect of point use” set in the deck information shown in FIG. 8 and acquires the level of each ability parameter of the deck. Then, the magnification corresponding to the level of each acquired ability parameter is determined. In the present embodiment, the magnification at “level 1” is “1.1 times”, the magnification at “level 2” is “1.2 times”, and the magnification at “level 3” is “1”. .3 "is associated with a magnification corresponding to the level in advance.

  For example, when “attack” is “level 2”, the magnification is “1.2 times”, and when “defense”, “health”, and “speed” are all “level 1” Each magnification is “1.1 times”.

  Next, the server device 10 calculates a deck capability parameter (step S303). That is, the battle processing unit 112A obtains the deck ability parameter by multiplying the temporary ability parameter of the deck calculated in the process of step S301 described above by the magnification determined in the process of step S302 described above.

  For example, the temporary ability parameters of the deck are “attack power: 500”, “defense power: 500”, “physical power: 500”, “speed: 500”, and the multiplier of “attack power” is “1.2” If the multiplier is “1.1 times” for “defense power”, “physical strength”, and “speed”, the deck ’s ability parameters are “attack power: 600”, “defense power: 550 ”,“ Physical Strength: 550 ”, and“ Speed: 550 ”.

  As described above, in the event game, the ability parameter of the deck used by the player is raised not only by leveling up by clearing the quest like the normal game, but also by using the event dedicated points. be able to. As a result, even if the playable period is set to a short event period, the ability parameter of the deck used in the event game can be greatly increased, so it is possible to increase the willingness to participate in the event game It becomes.

<Grant event reward>
FIG. 15 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example related to the provision of an event reward.

  The battle processing unit 112A of the server device 10 determines whether or not the player has cleared the event quest (step S401). This determination process is the same as the process of step S106 shown in FIG.

  As a result of this determination, if it is determined that the player has not cleared the event quest (step S401: NO), this process is terminated. On the other hand, when it is determined that the player has cleared the event quest (step S401: YES), the process proceeds to the next step S402.

  Next, when it is determined that the player has cleared the event quest, the reward grant processing unit 112E of the server device 10 determines the number of tokens as the event reward (Step S402).

  Specifically, the reward grant processing unit 112E refers to the “effect of point use” set in the deck information shown in FIG. 8, and according to the total amount of each ability parameter increased by using the event dedicated point. Determine the token quantity as an event reward. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when “attack power” is “level 2” and “defense power”, “physical power”, and “speed” are all “level 1”, each ability parameter The level is summed up to level 5 (this coincides with the number of times the event-dedicated point used for raising level 5 is used (ie, 5 times)). Therefore, the number of tokens to be given to the player as an event reward is determined as an amount corresponding to level 5 (or 5 times), which is the total.

  Next, the reward grant processing unit 112E of the server device 10 grants tokens of the quantity determined in this way to the player who has cleared the event quest (step S403). That is, the reward grant processing unit 112E updates the player information shown in FIG. 5, and adds the determined number of tokens to the number of tokens already owned by the player.

  As described above, the number of tokens given as an event reward is affected by the number of times the event dedicated points are used. Therefore, as the player repeats the use of event-dedicated points and increases the level of each ability parameter, the number of tokens that can be earned when the event quest is cleared can be increased. As a result, in order to obtain a lot of event rewards, the player will actively acquire event-specific points and actively increase the ability parameter of the deck.
