Good. Then, the program or data may be supplied to the server 10 or the game terminal 30 via the information storage medium.

  [2. Overview of Game System] The game system 1 can execute various games. In particular, in the game system 1, at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a user to whom a benefit related to a specific person is to be given.

  For example, in the game system 1, a mahjong game in which a user can play (play) with another person or a computer is executed. Further, for example, in the game system 1, an opportunity to play with a professional sparrow (an example of a specific person) is provided, and as a privilege, a right to play with a professional sparrow is given to a user selected from a plurality of users. Hereinafter, assuming such an example, a description will be given of a configuration that enables the user's willingness to acquire a privilege to be improved. 2A and 2B are diagrams for explaining an outline of the configuration.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, in the game system 1, a plurality of sparrow characters, which are a plurality of game characters respectively corresponding to a plurality of professional sparrows in the real world, are prepared. For example, a sparrow character A that characterizes a professional sparrowman A, a sparrow character B that characterizes a professional sparrowman B, a sparrow character C that characterizes a professional sparrowman C, and a character that characterizes a professional sparrowman D A sparrow character D or the like is prepared.

  In the game system 1, at least one of the plurality of sparrow characters is provided to the user. For example, the user can use a predetermined item (for example, a lottery ticket) to perform a lottery of the sparrow character, and one of the plurality of sparrow characters is given to the user by the lottery. Further, for example, a chance of a lottery may be given to a user once a day, and one of a plurality of sparrow characters may be given by the lottery. In the example shown in FIG. 2A, the sparrow characters A, C, and D corresponding to the professional sparrows A, C, and D are assigned to the user, and the user holds the sparrow characters A, C, and D.

  A familiarity parameter and a level parameter are associated with each of the sparrow characters A, C, and D owned by the user. The intimacy parameter indicates the intimacy between the user and the sparrow character. The intimacy parameter increases based on the game play content of the user, and the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character is set to a plurality of predetermined values (e.g., 10, 50, 100, 150,. ), The level parameter of the character is increased by one. For this reason, the familiarity parameter also has a role as a so-called “experience value”.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, the user sets any of the sparrows characters owned by the user as a partner. FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 show an example of a screen image displayed on the display unit 35 when the user sets any one of the sparrow character possessed by the user as a partner.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of a screen image of a sparrow character list. The sparrow character list screen image G10 shown in FIG. 3 shows a list of the sparrow character held by the user. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the parts P11, P12, and P13 are included in the image G10 of the pajamas character list. The part P11 corresponds to the sparrow character A, and is, for example, an icon of the sparrow character A. Although omitted in FIG. 3, a thumbnail image of the sparrow character A is actually displayed on the part P11. Similarly, the part P12 corresponds to the sparrow character C, and is, for example, an icon of the sparrow character C. The part P13 corresponds to the sparrow character D, for example, an icon of the sparrow character D or the like.

  The user selects any of the sparrow character A, C, or D possessed by the user by selecting any of the parts P11, P12, and P13. When one of the sparrow characters is selected, a display image of a sparrow character screen showing information about the selected sparrow character is displayed on the display unit 35.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of a screen image of a sparrow character. A sparrow character screen image G20 shown in FIG. 4 shows a case where the sparrow character A is selected in the sparrow character list screen image G10. In the example shown in FIG. 4, parts P21, P22, P23, P24, P25, and P26 are included in the sparrow character image G20. Although omitted in FIG. 4, an image of the sparrow character selected in the sparrow character list screen image G10 is also drawn in the actual sparrow character screen image G20.

  The part P21 indicates the name of the sparrow character. The part P22 indicates the familiarity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character. As described above, when the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character increases to one of a plurality of predetermined values (for example, 10, 50, 100, 150,. The level parameter increases by one. In this regard, the part P22 also indicates how much the intimacy parameter increases from the current value to increase the level parameter. In the example shown in FIG. 4, it is shown that when the intimacy parameter increases by 4 points, the level parameter increases by one.

  The part P23 is for returning to the sparrow character list screen image G10. When the part P23 is selected by the user, the screen transitions from the sparrow character screen image G20 to the sparrow character list screen image G10, and the sparrow character screen image G10 is displayed on the display unit 35.

  The part P24 is for setting the sparrow character displayed on the sparrow character screen image G20 as a partner. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the sparrow character A is displayed in the sparrow character screen image G20. Therefore, when the part P24 is selected by the user, the sparrow character A is set as a partner. If the part P24 is selected in a state where a sparrow character other than the sparrow character A is set as a partner, the other sparrow character is disengaged from the partner. A is set as a partner.

  The sparrow character selected as a partner is displayed on a game screen image when playing with another person or a computer, and assists the user by, for example, telling the user that his / her hand has advanced (the number of shouten has decreased). Play a role.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 2A, the user can update the parameters of the sparrow character set as a partner. For example, the user can increase the familiarity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character A by setting the sparrow character A as a partner, as described later.

  The parts P25 and P26 are for increasing the familiarity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character set as a partner.

  For example, when the part P25 is selected in the sparrow character screen image G20 shown in FIG. 4, a screen image for synthesizing another sparrow character held by the user with the sparrow character A is displayed. It is displayed on the display unit 35. Then, when the user combines another sparrow character with the sparrow character A, the other sparrow character is deleted from the list of the sparrow character held by the user. The affinity parameter of the character A increases. At this time, when the intimacy parameter reaches a predetermined value, the level parameter of the sparrow character A is increased by one.

  Further, for example, when the part P26 is selected in the sparrow character screen image G20 shown in FIG. 4, a screen image for giving a present item to the sparrow character A is displayed on the display unit 35. Then, when the user gives the present item to the sparrow character A, the affinity parameter of the sparrow character A increases in exchange for consuming the present item. At this time, when the intimacy parameter reaches a predetermined value, the level parameter of the sparrow character A is increased by one.

  If the sparrow character A is not set as a partner, the affinity parameter and level parameter of the sparrow character A cannot be increased even if the parts P25 and P26 are selected. For example, in a state where a sparrow character other than the sparrow character A is set as a partner, the user changes the partner to the sparrow character A in order to increase the affinity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character A. There is a need. Conversely, in a state where the sparrow character A is set as a partner, the user cannot increase the intimacy parameter and the level parameter of another sparrow character. In this case, the user needs to change the partner to the other sparrow character in order to increase the intimacy parameter and the level parameter of the other sparrow character.

  Even when the user plays the mahjong game (that is, when the user plays with another person or a computer), the familiarity parameter of the pajamas character set as a partner may be increased. At this time, when the intimacy parameter reaches a predetermined value, the level parameter of the sparrow character set as a partner may be increased by one.

  In the above, it has been described that only one of the sparrow characters can be set as a partner. However, a plurality of sparrow characters among the sparrow characters held by the user may be set as the partner. . Then, when a plurality of sparrow characters are set as partners, the intimacy parameters and level parameters of the plurality of sparrow characters may be increased.

  In the above description, it has been described that the affinity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character can be increased only when the sparrow character is set as a partner. Even when it is not set, the affinity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character may be increased. For example, even when the sparrow character is not set as a partner, selecting the parts P25 and P26 may increase the familiarity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character. In this case, when the sparrow character is set as a partner, the values of the familiarity parameter and the level parameter of the sparrow character that have been raised (raised before being set as a partner) are used as they are. , The intimacy parameter and the level parameter may be increased from that value.

  In the game system 1, each user holding the sparrow player character A corresponding to the professional sparrow player A can increase the intimacy parameter or the level parameter of the sparrow player character A as described above. In particular, in the game system 1, the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A held by each user is set to the opponent of the professional sparrow A (that is, the user to whom the right to play the professional sparrow A is given). Use when you want to.

  FIG. 2B shows an example of a method of selecting a game partner of professional janji. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, among the users U1, U2,..., Un holding the sparrow character A, the user whose intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A is the first to third highest. Is selected as the opponent of professional sparrow player A.

  Note that the method of selecting the professional opponent of the professional gamer A is not limited to the example illustrated in FIG. 2B. For example, the probability that the higher the familiarity parameter of the character A of the gamer is, the greater the probability that the user is selected as the professional opponent of the professional gamer A Is set to be higher, and based on the probability information, the opponent of the professional sparrow player A is selected from the users U1, U2,... May be selected. Alternatively, a level parameter may be used instead of the closeness parameter.

  In the game system 1, the game of the mahjong game in which the professional sparrow player A and the three users selected as the game partners as described above participates. In the game system 1, each of the professional opponents of not only the professional pajamas A but also the professional pajamas B, C, D,... Is similarly selected, and each of these professional pajamas is selected as the opponent. A game with the user who has performed is also executed.

  It should be noted that the game with the professional sparrow does not have to be performed by the game system 1. For example, the game with the professional sparrow may be performed by a game system other than the game system 1, or may be performed at a predetermined venue by using a real mahjong table.

  As described above, in the game system 1, the parameters of the sparrow character held by the user are updated based on the play contents of the user, and at least one of the plurality of users is selected as the opponent of the professional sparrow. The selection is made based on the parameters of the sparrow character held by each of the plurality of users. For this reason, the play content of the user influences the selection of the game partner of the professional sparrow. This allows the user to be in an active position as to whether or not the user is selected as a professional sparrow player, and consequently a user seeking to gain the right to play a professional sparrow player. Motivation can be improved.

  [3. Functional Blocks] Next, functional blocks realized by the game system 1 will be described. FIG. 5 shows an example of functional blocks realized in the game system 1. As shown in FIG. 5, the game system 1 includes a data storage unit 100, a display control unit 110, an update target setting unit 120, an update unit 130, an assignment target user selection unit 140, and a special game execution control unit 150. For example, among these functional blocks, the data storage unit 100 is realized by the database 14, and the other functional blocks are realized by the control unit 11 of the server 10 (an example of a game control device).

  [3-1] The data storage unit 100 stores data necessary for executing the game. For example, when the above-described mahjong game is executed in the game system 1, the user table TBL101, the sparrow character table TBL102, the possessed sparrow character table TBL103, and the special game table TBL104 as shown in FIG. It is stored in the storage unit 100.

  [3-1-1] FIG. 6 shows an example of the user table TBL101. The user table TBL101 is data indicating information on each user of the game system 1. The user table TBL101 includes “user ID”, “user name”, and “access status” fields.

  The “user ID” field indicates identification information for uniquely identifying a user. The “user name” field indicates the name of the user. The “access status” field indicates a status of access to the game system 1 by the user. For example, information indicating whether the user is accessing the game system 1, address information of the game terminal 30 of the user accessing the game system 1, and last access date and time information of the user are included in an “access status” field. Registered in.

  [3-1-2] FIG. 7 shows an example of a sparrow character table TBL102. The sparrow character table TBL102 is data indicating a list of sparrow characters prepared by the game system 1. The sparrow character table TBL102 includes a “sparrow character ID”, a “sparrow character name”, a “professional sparrow”, and an “image” field.

  The “Jongshi character ID” field indicates identification information for uniquely identifying a sparrow character prepared by the game system 1. The “Jongshi character name” field indicates the name of the sparrow character. The “Pro-Johnshi” field indicates a pro-Johnshi that is associated with the Jongshi character. The “image” field indicates an image of the sparrow character.

  [3-1-3] FIG. 8 shows an example of the possessed sparrow character table TBL103. For example, the retained sparrow character table TBL103 is stored in association with the user ID of each user, and indicates a list of the sparrow characters held by each user. The possessed sparrow player character table TBL103 includes a “serial number”, “sparrow character ID”, “intimacy”, “level”, and “partner flag” fields.

  The "serial number" field indicates identification information for uniquely identifying the sparrow character held by each user, and the "sparrow character ID" field indicates the sparrow character ID of the sparrow character. For example, one user may have a plurality of the same type of sparrow character, but in this case, these sparrow character characters have the same sparrow character ID and different serial numbers. Similarly, a plurality of users may have the same type of a sparrow character, but also in this case, the sparrow character IDs of the sparrow characters are the same and the serial numbers are different.

  The “intimacy” field indicates the value of the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character, and the “level” field indicates the value of the level parameter of the sparrow character. The “partner flag” field indicates whether or not the sparrow character is set as a partner. For example, the value “0” is set in the “partner flag” field when the sparrow character is not set as the partner, and the value “1” is set in the “partner flag” when the sparrow character is set as the partner. Field.

  [3-1-4] FIG. 9 shows an example of the special game table TBL104. The special game table TBL104 is data indicating information on a special game that is a game with a professional sparrow. The special game table TBL104 includes "special game ID", "scheduled start date and time", "professional sparrow", and "game partner" fields.

  The “special game ID” field indicates identification information for uniquely identifying each special game. The “scheduled start date and time” field indicates the scheduled start date and time of the special game. The “Pro-Jungshi” field indicates a pro-Johnshi participating in the special game. The “play partner” field indicates the user selected as the match for the professional sparrow (ie, the user who has been given the right to play the professional sparrow). For example, before the user is selected (confirmed) as the professional opponent of the professional sparrow, the "player opponent" field is blank. When a user is selected (confirmed) as a professional game partner, the user ID of the user is registered in the “player” field.

  [3-2] The display control unit 110 performs control for displaying various information on the display unit 35. Here, “performing control for displaying information on the display unit 35” means generating an image indicating information and displaying the image on the display unit 35. When the display control unit 110 is implemented by the server 10, “performing control for displaying information on the display unit 35” means that data for displaying an image indicating information is transmitted to the game terminal 30. This is to display the image on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30. Here, “data for displaying an image” may be data indicating an image itself or data necessary for generating an image.

  [3-3] The update target setting unit 120 sets at least one selected from the plurality of specific game objects respectively corresponding to the plurality of specific persons by the user as an update target of the user.

  Here, the “specific person” is a person who is distinguished from a general user. For example, a professional, a celebrity, an entertainer, a voice actor, a user who has won a game tournament, a user who ranks higher in a game ranking, a user in a game ranking, or the like in a field related to the theme of a game is an example of the “specific person”. For example, professional sparrows, celebrities and entertainers who are good at mahjong correspond to examples of “specific persons” related to the mahjong game. Also, for example, active or retired professional athletes, celebrities / entertainers who are good at sports games, and the like correspond to examples of “specific persons” related to sports games.

  The “specific game object” is a game object corresponding to a specific person. The “game object” is a target that can be displayed on a screen image, for example. For example, a game character or a game item corresponds to an example of a “game object”. One or more parameters are associated with the “game object”. Specifically, for example, a game character imitating a specific person corresponds to an example of a “specific game object”. Further, for example, a game character or a game item designed by a specific person also corresponds to an example of the “specific game object”.

  The “update target” is a specific game object whose data is to be updated based on the content of the user's play.

  In the case of the above-mentioned mahjong game, a professional sparrow is equivalent to an example of a “specific person”, a janja character is equivalent to an example of a “specific game object”, and a partner is an example of “update target”. . The update target setting unit 120 sets, as a partner of the user, a sparrow character selected by the user from among the sparrow characters held by the user. For example, when the part P24 of the sparrow character screen image G20 in which the sparrow character A is displayed as shown in FIG. 4 is selected, it means that the sparrow character A has been selected as a partner, and the update target setting unit 120 sets the sparrow character A as a partner.

  [3-4] The updating unit 130 updates the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user, based on the content of the user's play in the game related to the specific game object corresponding to the specific person.

  Here, the “game regarding the specific game object” is a game in which the specific game object appears. In other words, the “game regarding the specific game object” is a game in which the specific game object is displayed on the game screen. For example, a game in which the user uses or operates a specific game object, a game in which the user fosters (or trains) the specific game object, a game in which the user communicates with the specific game object to increase intimacy, and a user in the game A game in which the given points or virtual currency is used (or given) to the specific game object, a game in which the user plays with the assistance of the specific game object, and the like correspond to an example of the “game relating to the specific game object”. The “game relating to the specific game object” can be rephrased as a game in which data (parameters and the like) of the specific game object is updated based on the content of the user's play.

  The “contents played by the user in the game” refers to operations, selections, instructions, and the like performed by the user in the game.

  “User identification information” is information for uniquely identifying (identifying) a user. For example, a user ID or a user name corresponds to an example of “user identification information”.

  “Specific game object data stored in association with the user identification information” is data of the specific game object stored in the storage device in association with the user identification information.

  The “specific game object data” is, for example, a parameter of the specific game object.

  Here, the “parameter” is, for example, information indicating the closeness or depth of the relationship between the user and the specific game object. Specifically, intimacy (or friendship, etc.) between the user and the specific game object corresponds to an example of “information indicating the closeness or depth of the relationship between the user and the specific game object”. In this case, “update the data of the specific game object” means to update the parameter so that the relationship between the user and the specific game object becomes closer or deeper (for example, intimacy or friendship increases). It is. Alternatively, “updating the data of the specific game object” means updating the parameter so that the relationship between the user and the specific game object is far or shallow (for example, intimacy or friendship decreases). Is also good.

  The “parameter” may be, for example, information indicating a point acquired by a specific game object. Specifically, the experience value or the like of the specific game object corresponds to an example of “information indicating points acquired by the specific game object”. In this case, “update the data of the specific game object” means updating the parameter so that the points are increased. Alternatively, “updating the data of the specific game object” may be updating a parameter so that points are reduced.

  Further, the “parameter” may be, for example, information indicating the level of the performance of the specific game object or the level thereof. Specifically, the level or the like of the specific game object corresponds to an example of “information indicating the level of the performance of the specific game object”. In this case, “update the data of the specific game object” means to update the parameter so that the performance of the specific game object is high (or large). Alternatively, “updating the data of the specific game object” may be updating a parameter so that the performance of the specific game object becomes low (or low).

  Further, the “parameter” may be, for example, information indicating a good state of the specific game object. Specifically, the condition of the specific game object corresponds to an example of “information indicating good state of the specific game object”. In this case, "update the data of the specific game object" means to update the parameters so that the state of the specific game object is improved. Alternatively, “updating the data of the specific game object” may be updating a parameter so that the state of the specific game object becomes worse.

  The “parameter” may be information other than the numerical information. The “data of the specific game object” may be data other than the parameter.

  In the case of the above-described mahjong game, the familiarity parameter or level parameter of the pajamas character possessed by the user corresponds to an example of “data of a specific game object stored in association with user identification information”. In addition, a portion of the mahjong game relating to the sparrow character (for example, combining another sparrow character with the sparrow character, giving a gift item to the sparrow character, or receiving assistance with the sparrow character) Or a game played by a player or a computer) corresponds to an example of a “game relating to a specific game object”.

  For example, a sparrow character A (an example of a first specific game object) corresponding to a professional sparrow player A (an example of a first specific person) of a plurality of professional sparrows is a partner of the user U1 (an example of an update target). ), The updating unit 130 determines whether the intimacy parameter or the level parameter of the pajamas character A held by the user U1 (the first specific game object of the first specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user U1). (An example of data) is updated based on the play contents of the user U1 in the game.

  Specifically, in a state in which the sparrow character A is set as a partner of the user U1, an operation for increasing the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A (for example, if another sparrow character is assigned to the sparrow character A). When the user U1 performs an operation of combining or an operation of giving a gift item to the sparrow character A, the updating unit 130 increases the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A. When the affinity parameter of the sparrow character A reaches a predetermined value, the updating unit 130 increases the level parameter of the sparrow character A.

  When the user U1 plays a game with another or a computer in a state where the sparrow character A is set as a partner of the user U1, the updating unit 130 increases the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A. Is also good. Then, when the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A reaches a predetermined value, the updating unit 130 may increase the level parameter of the sparrow character A. In this case, the updating unit 130 may change the amount of increase of the familiarity parameter according to the result of the game. For example, the updating unit 130 may increase the intimacy parameter more when the performance in the game is good than when the performance is poor.

  In the case where the sparrow character A is set as a partner of the user U1, the intimacy parameter or the level parameter of the sparrow character A owned by the user U1 is updated by the updating unit 130, and the possession of the user U1 is updated. Updating the intimacy parameter or level parameter of another playing sparrow character is limited. However, the updating unit 130 also updates the intimacy parameter or the level parameter of the other pajamas characters held by the user U1, even when the pajamas character A is set as a partner of the user U1. It may be.

  [3-5] The grant target user selection unit 140 specifies at least one of the plurality of users as a grant target of the privilege related to the specific person, in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users. Select based on game object data.

  Here, the “privilege” is a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character, and can be given to a user. For example, the right to participate in an event (event) of a specific person or a specific character corresponds to an example of “privilege”. The “event” may be performed on a game system via a communication network or may be performed at an actual venue.

  For example, a game in which a specific person participates corresponds to an example of “event”. Here, the “game in which a specific person participates” is a game in which a specific person is played, a game aiming at achieving an object in cooperation with the specific person, and the like. The “purpose” refers to, for example, defeating an enemy, obtaining a game item, or winning a battle. Specifically, a mahjong game, a shogi game, a go game, a sports game, a fighting game, or the like in which a specific person competes with another user, a game in which a specific person forms an adventure with another user in a group (party), or the like. Corresponds to an example of a “game in which a specific person participates”. Further, for example, a performance (concert or drama, etc.) of a specific person also corresponds to an example of the “event”.

  For example, data relating to a specific person (image data, music data, moving image data, a game character, a game item, or the like) also corresponds to an example of “privilege”. Furthermore, goods related to a specific person also correspond to an example of “privilege”.

  The “grant target” is a user to whom a privilege is to be granted.

  "Selecting at least one of the plurality of users based on the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users" means, for example, that the data of the specific game object is A comparison is made between users, and at least one of a plurality of users is selected based on a result of the comparison. Specifically, it is to select a predetermined number of users in order from the user having the highest parameter of the specific game object.

  More specifically, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the degree of intimacy or friendship between the user and the specific game object, the parameter is predetermined in order from the user with the highest degree of intimacy or friendship with the specific game object. Is to select a number of users. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating points acquired by a specific game object, a predetermined number of users are selected in order from the user having the most points acquired by the specific game object. Also, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the level of the performance of the specific game object, a predetermined number of users are selected in order from the user having the highest (or highest) performance of the specific game object. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating goodness of the state of the specific game object, a predetermined number of users are selected in order from the user having the best state of the specific game object.

  Further, "selecting at least one of the plurality of users based on the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users" means that, for example, the parameter of the specific game object is It may be to select a user who is equal to or more than the threshold. That is, a predetermined number of users may be randomly selected from users whose parameters of the specific game object are equal to or greater than the threshold.

  More specifically, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating intimacy or friendship between the user and the specific game object, a user whose intimacy or friendship with the specific game object is equal to or more than a predetermined reference May be selected. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating points acquired by a specific game object, it may be that a user whose points acquired by the specific game object is equal to or more than a predetermined amount is selected. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the level of the performance of the specific game object, a user whose performance (height) of the specific game object is equal to or higher than a predetermined reference may be selected. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the goodness of the state of the specific game object, a user whose goodness of the state of the specific game object is equal to or more than a predetermined reference may be selected.

  Further, "selecting at least one of the plurality of users based on the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users" means that, for example, the parameter of the specific game object is The higher the value is, the higher the probability that the user will be selected as a privilege grant target is set, the probability information of the user is set, and whether or not the user is selected as a privilege grant target is set in the probability information of the user. It may be determined on the basis of.

  In this case, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the degree of intimacy or friendship between the user and the specific game object, the higher the degree of intimacy or friendship between the user and the specific game object, the more the user becomes a target of the privilege. What is necessary is just to set the probability information of the user so that the probability of being selected as is high. Also, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating points acquired by a specific game object, the more points the specific game object has acquired, the higher the probability that the user will be selected as a target to which a privilege is to be given, such that the user is selected. What is necessary is just to set probability information. Further, for example, in the case of a parameter indicating the level of the performance of the specific game object, the higher (higher) the performance of the specific game object is, the higher the probability that the user is selected as a privilege grant target is increased. What is necessary is just to set the probability information of the user. For example, in the case of a parameter indicating the state of the specific game object, the probability information of the user is set such that the better the state of the specific game object is, the higher the probability that the user is selected as a privilege grant target is. Should be set.

  In the case of the above-mentioned mahjong game, the right to participate in a game with a professional sparrow player (an example of a game in which a specific person participates) corresponds to an example of “privilege related to a specific person”. The affinity parameter or the level parameter of the sparrow character held by each of the plurality of users corresponds to an example of “data of a specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users”.

  For example, the granting user selection unit 140 assigns at least one of the plurality of users as a granting target of the right to play with the professional Janshi A (a privilege related to the first specific person of the plurality of specific persons). select. In other words, the granting user selection unit 140 selects at least one of the plurality of users as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A (in other words, a participant who can participate in the game with the professional sparrow player A).

  When selecting the game partner of the professional sparrow player A, the grant target user selection unit 140 assigns at least one of a plurality of users holding the sparrow player character A corresponding to the professional sparrow player A to the plurality of users. A first specific game object (a specific game corresponding to a first specific person stored in association with the identification information of each of a plurality of users) Selection based on an example of the data of the object).

  Here, it is assumed that each of the users U1 to Un owns the sparrow character A. For example, the grant target user selection unit 140 determines the intimacy parameter of the user U1's sparrow character A, the intimacy parameter of the user U2's sparrow character A,..., And the intimacy of the user Un's sparrow character A. Compare parameters. Then, the grant target user selection unit 140 grants the user who has the first to third highest intimacy parameters of the sparrow character A to the opponent of the professional sparrow player A (that is, the right to play the professional sparrow player A). Target).

  In addition, the grant target user selection unit 140 sets the probability information indicating the probability that the professional U-John A is selected as the opponent of the game for the users U1 to Un. You may make it set so that it may become. Then, based on the probability information of each user set as described above, the grant target user selection unit 140 may select the professional opponent of the professional janshi A from the users U1 to Un. . For example, the assignment target user selection unit 140 determines whether or not to select the user as the professional opponent of the professional Janshi A based on the probability information of the user in descending order of the affinity parameter of the sparrow character A. You may make it determine. Then, when the number of users selected as the professional opponent of the professional sparrows A reaches three, the grant target user selection unit 140 may determine those users as the opponents of the professional sparrows A. .

  [3-6] The special game execution control unit 150 performs control for executing a game between the professional sparrow and the user selected as the opponent of the professional sparrow. The special game execution control unit 150 is a functional block in a case where the right to play with a professional sparrow is provided as a privilege. For this reason, in the case where a privilege other than the right to play with the professional sparrow is provided as a privilege, a functional block corresponding to the privilege is provided instead of the special game execution control unit 150.

  For example, the special game execution control unit 150 notifies the user selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow, that the user has been selected as the game partner of the professional game. Further, for example, the special game execution control unit 150 notifies the user selected as the game partner of the professional gamer of the special game information indicating the scheduled execution date and time of the special game with the professional gamer. Specifically, the special game execution control unit 150 notifies the user of the specific game information by displaying the specific game information on the display unit 35 of the game terminal 30 or outputting the specific game information by voice from the audio output unit 36. . Alternatively, the special game execution control unit 150 notifies the user of the specific game information by transmitting the specific game information to the address of the user.

  In addition, the special game execution control unit 150 sets the professional game in a predetermined reception period (for example, a period from a point in time before the scheduled execution date and time to a scheduled execution date and time) set based on the scheduled execution date and time of the special game. Waits for access from the user selected as the opponent of the game. Then, when there is access from the professional sparrows and all the users selected as the game partner, the special game execution control unit 150 starts a special game between the professional sparrows and those users. The special game may be executed by a client / server method or a peer-to-peer method. In other words, this special game may be performed by performing data communication between the server 10 and each of the game terminals 30 so that the current situation of the game is shared by the game terminals 30. , The current situation of the game may be shared by the game terminals 30.

  [4. Processing] Next, processing executed in the game system 1 will be described.

  [4-1] FIG. 10 shows an example of a process executed when any one of the sparrow characters is selected in the sparrow character list screen image G10. The control unit 11 functions as the display control unit 110 by executing the processing illustrated in FIG. 10 according to a program. Note that the following description will be made on the assumption that the user U1 selects the sparrow character A in the sparrow character list screen image G10.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30 transmits a data request for the sparrow character image G20 to the server 10 (S300), and the server 10 receives the request (S100). The request includes the user ID of the user U1 and the serial number of the sparrow character A selected by the user.

  When the request is received by the server 10, the control unit 11 of the server 10 acquires information on the sparrow character selected in the sparrow character list screen image G10 (S102), that is, the control unit 11 With reference to the retained sparrow character table TBL103 associated with the user ID of U1, the information of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 is acquired.

  After the execution of step S102, the control unit 11 transmits the data of the sparrow character image G20 to the game terminal 30 (S104). That is, the control unit 11 generates data of the sparrow character screen image G20 indicating information of the sparrow character A (the sparrow character character selected in the sparrow character list screen image G10) held by the user U1. It is transmitted to the game terminal 30. Then, the game terminal 30 receives the data of the sparrow character screen image G20 (S302), and the control unit 31 displays the sparrow character screen image G20 on the display unit 35 based on the data (S304).

  [4-2] FIG. 11 shows an example of a process executed when the part P24 of the sparrow character image G20 is selected. The control unit 11 functions as the update target setting unit 120 by executing the processing illustrated in FIG. 11 according to a program. Note that the following description is made on the assumption that the user U1 selects the part P24 of the sparrow character screen image G20 displaying the sparrow character A held by the user U1.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30 transmits a partner setting request (S310), and the server 10 receives the request (S110). The request includes the user ID of the user U1 and the serial number of the sparrow character A.

  When the above request is received by the server 10, the control unit 11 of the server 10 sets the sparrow character A held by the user U1 as a partner of the user U1 (S112). That is, the control unit 11 accesses the retained sparrow character table TBL103 associated with the user ID of the user U1, sets the partner flag of the sparrow character A to “1”, and sets the partner flag of the other sparrow character to “1”. Set to “0”.

  After step S112 is performed, the control unit 11 transmits a completion notification indicating that the partner setting has been completed to the game terminal 30 (S114), and the game terminal 30 receives the completion notification (S312). When the completion notification is received by the game terminal 30, the control unit 31 displays a completion message indicating that the partner setting has been completed on the display unit 35 (S314).

  [4-3] FIG. 12 shows an example of a process executed when an operation for increasing the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character is performed by the user. The control unit 11 functions as the update unit 130 by executing the processing illustrated in FIG. In the following description, an operation for increasing the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A in the state where the sparrow character A owned by the user U1 is set as a partner of the user U1 (for example, the sparrow character A) The following description is based on the assumption that the user U1 has performed an operation of synthesizing another sparrow player character or an operation of giving a present item to the sparrow player character A).

  As shown in FIG. 12, the control unit 31 of the game terminal 30 transmits an intimacy parameter update request to the server 10 (S320), and the server 10 receives the request (S120). The request includes the user ID of the user U1 and the serial number of the sparrow character A.

  When the request is received by the server 10, the control unit 11 of the server 10 increases the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 (S122). That is, the control unit 11 accesses the retained sparrow character table TBL103 associated with the user ID of the user U1, and adds a predetermined value to the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A.

  Further, the control unit 11 determines that the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 is a plurality of predetermined values (eg, 10, 50, 100, 150,...) Set in stages. It is determined whether any of them has been reached (S124). In other words, when the familiarity parameter is increased in step S122, the familiarity parameter changes from a state where the familiarity parameter is less than a predetermined value (for example, 10) to a state where the familiarity parameter is greater than or equal to a predetermined value (for example, 10). The control unit 11 determines that the affinity parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 has reached the predetermined value (for example, 10). If the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 reaches one of the plurality of predetermined values, the control unit 11 sets the level parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1. Is incremented by one (S126). That is, the control unit 11 accesses the possessed sparrow character table TBL103 associated with the user ID of the user U1, and adds 1 to the level parameter of the sparrow character A.

  If step S126 is executed, or if it is not determined in step S124 that the intimacy parameter of the sparrow character A of the user U1 has reached any of the plurality of predetermined values, the control unit 11 executes the intimacy The result of updating the parameters and the like is transmitted to the game terminal 30 (S128), and the game terminal 30 receives the result of the update (S322). When the update result is received by the game terminal 30, the control unit 31 displays the update result such as the intimacy parameter on the display unit 35 (S324). That is, the control unit 31 displays the closeness parameter and the level parameter at that time on the display unit 35.

  [4-4] FIG. 13 shows an example of a process executed when a game partner of a professional sparrow is selected. When the control unit 11 executes the processing illustrated in FIG. 13 according to a program, the control unit 11 functions as the assignment target user selection unit 140. Note that the following description will be made on the assumption that a professional opponent of the professional Janshi A is selected.

  As illustrated in FIG. 13, the control unit 11 refers to the retained sparrow player character table TBL103 stored in association with the user ID of each user, and determines the user who has the Sorting is performed in descending order of the affinity parameters (S130). Then, the control unit 11 selects the first to third users as the game opponents of the professional sparrow player A (S132). In addition, the control unit 11 registers the game partner of the professional sparrow A (S134). For example, the control unit 11 accesses the special game table TBL104, and registers the user ID of the user selected in step S132 in the "game partner" field of the special game A.

  [5. Conclusion] In the game system 1 according to the present embodiment, at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a game partner of a professional sparrow. That is, the right to play with the professional sparrow is granted to at least one user as a privilege.

  In particular, in the game system 1, the parameters of the sparrow character held by the user are updated based on the content of the user's play, and at least one of the plurality of users as the opponent of the professional sparrow is played by the plurality of users. The selection is made on the basis of the parameters of each possessed sparrow character. For this reason, the play content of the user influences the selection of the game partner of the professional sparrow. This allows the user to be in an active position as to whether or not the user is selected as a professional sparrow player, and consequently a user seeking to gain the right to play a professional sparrow player. Motivation can be improved.

  Further, in the game system 1, for example, when a sparrow character A corresponding to a professional sparrow player A among a plurality of professional sparrow players is set as a partner of the user, the sparrow character A held by the user Are updated based on the content of the user's play, and at least one of the plurality of users as a match-up partner of the professional gamer A is based on the parameters of the gamer's character A owned by each of the plurality of users. Selected. For this reason, the user can aim at acquiring the right to play with a desired professional sparrow player among a plurality of professional sparrow players.

  [6. Modifications] The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above.

  [6-1] In the embodiment described above, in order to select an opponent of a professional sparrow, the number increases in accordance with the user's play content such as the familiarity parameter (or level parameter) of the sparrow character. Although the parameter is used, a parameter that decreases according to the content of the user's play may be used instead of such a parameter. In other words, a parameter that the user aims to decrease, such as a parameter that the user aims to increase, such as a closeness parameter (or a level parameter) of the sparrow character, may be used.

  In a case where such parameters are used, the assignment target user selection unit 140 may select a predetermined number of users as the game opponents of the professional pajamas A in order from the user with the lowest parameter of the pajamas character A. Alternatively, the assignment target user selection unit 140 may select, as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A, a user whose parameter of the sparrow character A is equal to or less than the threshold. Alternatively, the assignment target user selection unit 140 sets the probability information of the user such that the lower the parameter of the sparrow character A is, the higher the probability that the user is selected as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A is. Alternatively, it may be determined whether or not to select the user as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A based on the probability information of the user.

  [6-2] A time-limited parameter may be set for the sparrow character, and the time-limited parameter may be used to select a game partner of the professional sparrow. Here, the “time-limited parameter” is a parameter that is updated only within a predetermined period. In other words, the “time-limited parameter” is a parameter that is set to an initial value at the start of the predetermined period and is updated based on the content of the user's game play within the predetermined period. Here, the “predetermined period” is, for example, the latest period, that is, the period immediately before the selection of the professional opponent's game partner (for example, one week, two weeks, or one month). is there.

  With respect to the intimacy parameter (or level parameter) as described above, generally, a user who has been playing a game for a long time is higher than a user who has started playing a game relatively recently. Many. For this reason, when using the intimacy parameter (or the level parameter) to select the game partner of the professional sparrow, the user has played the game before rather than the user who has started playing the game relatively recently. The user is more advantageous. In this regard, using the time-limited parameters as described above, even a user who has relatively recently started playing a game can play a game intensively within a predetermined period, thereby playing a professional sparrow-player. Since the possibility of being selected as a game can be increased, it is possible to reduce the difference between advantages / disadvantages between a user who has played a game for a long time and a user who has started playing a game relatively recently.

  [6-3] By adopting the configuration described below, the number of users who are aiming to play with a professional sparrow may be grasped.

  For example, the display control unit 110 performs control for displaying, on the display unit 35, information on the number of users for whom at least one of the plurality of sparrow characters is set as a partner. May be.

  Here, the "information on the number of users for whom the sparrow character is set as a partner" may be information indicating the number of users for which the sparrow character is set as a partner. Information indicating the number of users set as partners in a predetermined number of stages (n stages) may be used.

  Further, "displaying information on at least one of a plurality of sparrows characters on the display unit 35" means displaying the information on the display unit 35 for any one of the plurality of sparrows characters. It may be to do. For example, the information may be displayed on the display unit 35 for any one of the sparrow characters specified by the user. Alternatively, the above-mentioned information may be displayed on the display unit 35 for the sparrow character held by the user among the plurality of sparrow characters. Alternatively, the information may be displayed on the display unit 35 for all of the plurality of sparrow characters.

  For example, the display control unit 110 may perform control for displaying a sparrow character image G20 as shown in FIG. 14 is different from FIG. 3 in that the part P22 indicates the number of users (partner users) who have set the pajamas character A corresponding to the professional pajamas A as a partner. ing.

  When displaying the sparrow character screen image G20 as shown in FIG. 14 on the display unit 35, in step S102 in FIG. 10, the control unit 11 controls the retained sparrow character table TBL103 associated with the user ID of each user. To obtain the number of users who have set the sparrow character A as a partner.

  By doing so, it becomes possible for the user to know the number of users (the number of partner users of the sparrow character A) set as the partner with the sparrow character A corresponding to the professional sparrow player A. Since the number of partner users of the sparrow character A is equivalent to the number of users aiming to play with the professional sparrow player A, the user can grasp the number of users aiming to play with the professional sparrow player A. become. The greater the number of users who are aiming to play professional sparrows A, the greater the number of competitors and the lower the possibility of playing professional sparrows A. Therefore, by referring to the number of partner users of the sparrow character A, the user can grasp whether or not the possibility of playing with the professional sparrow player A is low. Then, based on this, the user can determine whether or not he or she wants to play with the professional sparrow player A (that is, whether or not to set the sparrow character A as a partner).

  In addition, the display control unit 110 associates the number of the users set as the sparrow character partner in the sparrow character list screen image G10 in association with each sparrow character (that is, in association with each of the parts P11 to P13). (The number of partner users) may be displayed. In this way, the number of users aiming to play with each professional sparrow may be grasped.

  [6-4] In the game system 1, if the user's partner is changed unnecessarily, the load on the game system 1 may increase. Therefore, by adopting the configuration described below, the user may be prompted not to change the partner unnecessarily.

  [6-4-1] For example, when the partner of the user U1 is changed from the sparrow character A to another sparrow character, the updating unit 130 determines that the data of the sparrow character A of the user U1 (intimacy parameter Alternatively, the user U1 may be updated so as to be disadvantageous when the user U1 is selected as the opponent of the professional gamer A (that is, the target to which the privilege is given).

  Here, “when the partner of the user U1 is changed from the sparrow character A to another sparrow character” means, for example, that the user U1 is set as the partner of the user U1 while the sparrow character A is set as the partner. Has set another sparrow character (eg, the sparrow character C) as a new partner, and the partner of the user U1 has been changed from the sparrow character A to another sparrow character (eg, the sparrow character C). Is the case.

  Also, "update the data of the user U1's sparrow character A so that the user U1 is disadvantaged when the user U1 is selected as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A" The purpose is to update the data of the sparrow character A of the user U1 so that it is difficult to be selected as a partner. In other words, the data of the sparrow character A of the user U1 is updated so that the possibility (probability) that the user U1 is selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A is reduced.

  For example, if the user U1 is more likely to be selected as the professional opponent of the professional sparrow player A as the affinity parameter of the sparrow character A of the user U1 is higher, " "Updating the user U1 so that it is disadvantageous when the user U1 is selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A" means lowering the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A of the user U1.

  In this way, when the partner of the user is changed, the data of the sparrow character that was the partner before the change is disadvantageous in that the user is selected as the professional opponent of the professional sparrow. , It is possible to prompt the user not to change the partner unnecessarily. As a result, an increase in the load on the game system 1 can be suppressed.

  [6-4-2] Further, for example, the change history of the partner of the user U1 is stored in the data storage unit 100, and the updating unit 130 sets the user U1 based on the number of changes or the change frequency of the partner of the user U1. May be updated so that the user U1 is disadvantageous when the user U1 is selected as a professional opponent of the game (that is, a target to which a privilege is given).

  Here, “the number of times or frequency of change of the partner of the user U1” is, for example, the total number of times that the partner of the user U1 has been changed. Alternatively, the “number of times or frequency of change of the partner of the user U1” is, for example, the number of times that the partner of the user U1 has been changed within a predetermined period (for example, one day, one week, or one month).

  In addition, "update the data of the user U1's sparrow character based on the number of times or frequency of change of the partner of the user U1" means, for example, that the number of times or frequency of change of the partner of the user U1 is equal to or more than a threshold value Then, the data (intimacy parameter, etc.) of at least one sparrow character of the user U1 is updated. In addition, when the number of times of change or the frequency of change of the partner of the user U1 becomes equal to or more than the threshold value, the data of all the sparrow characters held by the user U1 may be updated. For example, the data of a part of a sparrow character (for example, a sparrow character having the highest affinity parameter among the sparrow characters held by the user U1) may be updated.

  The phrase "update the data of the user U1's sparrow character so that the user U1 is disadvantageous when the user U1 is selected as the professional opponent of the game" is similar to the case of the modified example 6-4-1. Therefore, the description is omitted here.

  According to the above, when the number of times or frequency of change of the partner of the user U1 increases, the data of the sparrow character of the user U1 is disadvantageous in that the user U1 is selected as the professional opponent of the professional sparrow. , It is possible to prompt the user not to change the partner unnecessarily. As a result, an increase in the load on the game system 1 can be suppressed.

  [6-5] For example, as for a user who has played a game for a long time, the value of the familiarity parameter is increased as a result of the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character being repeatedly increased over a long period of time. In some cases, the player may be in an advantageous state to be selected as a match opponent (i.e., a target to which a privilege is to be granted). For this reason, if no countermeasures are taken, there is a possibility that such a user will be repeatedly selected as a game partner of a professional sparrow. In this regard, if the same user is selected many times as the opponent of the professional sparrow, the motivation of other users aiming to play with the professional sparrow may be impaired. For this reason, by adopting the configuration described below, the occurrence of such inconvenience may be suppressed.

  For example, when the user U1 is selected as the professional opponent of the game by the assigning user selecting unit 140, the updating unit 130 sets the data of the character of the user U1 as the opponent of the professional sparrow. It may be updated so as to be disadvantageous upon being selected again.

  More specifically, when the user U1 is selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A, the updating unit 130 rewrites the data of the character A of the user U1 as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A. You may make it update so that it may become disadvantageous at the time of selection.

  Further, when the user U1 is selected as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A, the updating unit 130 also outputs data of a sparrow character other than the sparrow character A among the sparrow characters held by the user U1. The user U1 may be updated so that it is disadvantageous when the user U1 is selected as a game partner of another professional sparrow.

  In addition, "update the data of the user U1's sparrow character so that it is disadvantageous for the user U1 to be again selected as a professional sparrow player's opponent" refers to the case of the modified example 6-4-1. The description is omitted here because it is the same.

  In this way, when the user U1 is selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow player A, the data of the character of the user U1 is re-selected as the game partner of the professional sparrow player. Since it is updated so as to be disadvantageous, it becomes possible to make it difficult for the same user to be repeatedly selected as a game partner of the professional sparrow. If the same user is selected many times as a match for a professional sparrow, the willingness of other users to play with the professional sparrow may be impaired, but as described above, The occurrence of such inconvenience can be suppressed.

  [6-6] By adopting a configuration as described below, a user who wants to play a professional sparrow may be encouraged to play the game continuously or periodically. .

  [6-6-1] For example, based on the elapsed time from the previous play time of the game of the user U1, the updating unit 130 transmits the data of the sparrow character of the user U1, In other words, it may be updated so that it is disadvantageous after being selected as a privilege grant target).

  Here, the “elapsed time since the last time the user U1 played the game” is the time elapsed since the last time the user U1 played the game. The “last play time” is, for example, the time when the user U1 ends the last play. For example, the last access date and time of the user U1 registered in the “access status” field of the user table TBL101 corresponds to “last play time”.

  In addition, “update the data of the user U1's sparrow character based on the elapsed time from the previous play of the game of the user U1” means, for example, that the elapsed time from the previous play of the game of the user U1 is equal to or more than the threshold. Is to update the data (intimacy parameter and the like) of at least one sparrow character of the user U1.

  Also, “update the data of the user U1's sparrow character based on the elapsed time from the previous play time of the game of the user U1” means, for example, that the user U1's sparrow character is updated at predetermined time intervals based on the probability information. It is determined whether or not to update the data of the user U1 (intimacy parameter or the like), and if it is determined that the data of the user U1's sparrow character is to be updated, the data of at least one of the user U1's sparrow characters is updated. Alternatively, the probability information may be that the probability of determining to update data increases as the elapsed time from the previous play time of the game of the user increases.

  When updating the data of the sparrow character of the user U1, the data of all the sparrow characters held by the user U1 may be updated, or some of the sparrow characters held by the user U1 may be updated. For example, only the data of a sparrow character having the highest affinity parameter among the sparrow characters held by the user U1 may be updated.

  In addition, the phrase “update the data of the user U1's sparrow character so that it is disadvantageous for the user U1 to be selected as a professional opponent of the game” is similar to the case of the modified example 6-4-1. Therefore, the description is omitted here.

  According to the above, based on the elapsed time from the last play time of the game of the user, the data of the user's sparrow character is disadvantageous in that the user is selected as a professional opponent of the game. Thus, it is possible to urge a user who wants to play with a professional sparrow to consider the elapsed time from the previous play time. For example, if the elapsed time from the previous play time of the user's game is equal to or greater than the threshold, the data of at least one of the sparrows characters of the user is disadvantageously selected when the user is selected as the professional opponent of the game. By updating so that it becomes possible, it is possible to encourage the user aiming to play with the professional sparrows so that the elapsed time from the previous play time does not exceed the threshold, and the game can be continuously or periodically performed Can be encouraged to play.

  [6-6-2] For example, the game system 1 may further include a play frequency information acquisition unit 160 as shown in FIG.

  The play frequency information acquisition unit 160 acquires play frequency information on the play frequency of each game of a plurality of users. For example, data relating to the play histories of the games of each of the plurality of users is stored in the data storage unit 100, and the play frequency information obtaining unit 160 obtains the play frequency information based on the data.

  Here, the “game play frequency” is the degree to which the game is played repeatedly. For example, the number of times the user has played the game within a predetermined period. Further, for example, the number of times the game program has been started (executed) within a predetermined period may be used. For example, the most recent period, that is, the period (for example, one week, two weeks, or one month) immediately before the point at which the professional opponent of the game (that is, the target to which the privilege is to be granted) is selected is set as the “predetermined period”. You.

  “Play frequency information” is information indicating a play frequency. For example, when the play frequency is “the number of times the user has played the game within the predetermined period”, the information may be information indicating the number of times the user has played the game within the predetermined period, or the user may have performed the game within the predetermined period. The information may indicate the number of times the game has been played in a predetermined number of stages (n stages).

  In the case of the functional block diagram illustrated in FIG. 15, the grant target user selection unit 140 assigns at least one of the plurality of users as the opponent of the professional janji (that is, the privilege grant target) to each of the plurality of users. The selection may be made based on the data of the sparrow character (intimacy parameter or level parameter, etc.) and the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users.

  Here, "selecting at least one of the plurality of users based on the data of the respective player's character and the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users" means, for example, The evaluation points of each user are calculated based on the data of the sparrow character of each user and the play frequency information, and a predetermined number of users are selected in descending order of the evaluation points. Alternatively, a predetermined number of users may be randomly selected from the users whose evaluation points are equal to or greater than the threshold. The “evaluation point” is a point that is calculated so that, for example, the parameter (such as the intimacy parameter or the level parameter) of the sparrow character increases, and the play frequency increases as the play frequency increases. .

  Alternatively, "selecting at least one of the plurality of users based on the data of the individual player's character of the plurality of users and the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users" means, for example, Only users whose frequency is equal to or higher than a predetermined criterion are selected candidates (in other words, users whose play frequency is lower than a predetermined criterion are excluded from the selection candidates), and at least one of the users of the selection candidates is assigned to the sparrow character of those users. May be selected based on the above data. For example, a predetermined number of users may be selected from at least one of the selection candidate users in order from the user having the highest affinity parameter (or level parameter) of the sparrow character. In short, even if the intimacy parameter (or level parameter) of the user's sparrow character is high, if the user does not play frequently, even if the user is not selected as the professional opponent of the game, Good.

  According to the above, at least one of the plurality of users is selected based on the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users as the opponent of the professional sparrow. Will affect the choice of professional sparrows. This makes it possible to encourage the user who wants to play with the professional sparrow to play the game continuously or periodically.

  [6-7] When the data of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 is in a predetermined state and the request is received from the user U1, the grant target user selection unit 140 converts the user into a professional sparrow. A lottery process may be performed to determine whether or not to be selected as the game partner of A (ie, the target to which the privilege is to be granted).

  Here, "when the data of the sparrow character A is in a predetermined state" means, for example, a parameter (data of the intimacy parameter A) in which the data of the sparrow character A is gradually increased in accordance with the content of the user's play. Or the level parameter) is the case where the parameter of the sparrow character A has reached a predetermined value or more. “When the data of the sparrow character A is in a predetermined state” means, for example, a case where the data of the sparrow character A is a parameter that is gradually reduced in accordance with the play content of the user. This is a case where the parameter of the player character A has reached a predetermined value or less.

  “When a request is received from a user” means, for example, that an operation indicating a predetermined request has been received. Further, for example, data indicating a predetermined request may be received from a user terminal. Here, the “predetermined request” is to request execution of the lottery process.

  The “lottery process” is a process of determining whether or not to select a user as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A based on the probability information. For example, based on the probability information set to be considerably lower than the probability that the user is determined to be selected as the professional opponent of the professional sparrows A, as compared to the probability that the user is determined not to be selected as the opponent of the professionals. This is a process for deciding whether or not to select the user as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A.

  “Executing the lottery process when a request is received from a user” means, for example, immediately executing the lottery process when a request is received from a user. Further, “executing a lottery process when a request is received from a user” may mean, for example, executing a lottery process under predetermined conditions when a request is received from a user. Specifically, an item (for example, a lottery ticket) may be given to the user when a request is received from the user, and a lottery process may be performed when the item is used.

  Further, when receiving the request from the user U1, the update unit 130 may update the data of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 from a predetermined state to another state.

  Here, "updating the data of the sparrow character A from a predetermined state to another state" means, for example, performing the following update. For example, if the "predetermined state" is a state in which the parameter of the sparrow character A has reached a predetermined value or more, "update the data of the sparrow character A from the predetermined state to another state" That is, the parameter of the sparrow character A is updated to a value smaller than a predetermined value (for example, an initial value). For example, if the "predetermined state" is a state in which the parameter of the sparrow character A has reached a predetermined value or less, "update the data of the sparrow character A from the predetermined state to another state" Is to update the parameter of the sparrow character A to a value larger than a predetermined value (for example, an initial value).

  “Updating the data of the sparrow character A when the request is received from the user” means, for example, immediately updating the data of the sparrow character A when the request is received from the user. Further, "update the data of the sparrow character A when the request is received from the user" means, for example, to update the data of the sparrow character A under a predetermined condition when the request is received from the user. It may be. Specifically, after receiving a request from the user, when an item (for example, a lottery ticket) is used, the data of the sparrow character A may be updated. Further, after receiving a request from the user, before or after the lottery process is executed, the data of the sparrow character A may be updated.

  In this way, for example, when a parameter (intimacy parameter, level parameter, or the like) of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 has reached a predetermined value, a request from the user U1 has been received. A lottery process is performed to determine whether or not to select the user U1 as a game partner of the professional sparrow player A, and the parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 is changed from a predetermined value to an initial value (for example, It is updated to zero. For this reason, when the parameter of the sparrow character A held by the user U1 becomes a predetermined value, the user U1 exchanges the parameter of the sparrow character A with the initial value and exchanges the value with the professional sparrow character. It becomes possible to arbitrarily select whether or not to challenge the lottery for the player A to be selected as the opponent.

  [6-8] All or a part of the functional blocks shown in FIG. 5 or FIG. 15 may be realized by the game terminal 30 (an example of the game control device).

  [6-9] In the above description, the case where at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a user to whom the privilege is to be granted has been described as an example with the right to play with the professional sparrows as a privilege. The benefits are not limited to the right to play a professional sparrow. The present invention can be applied to a case where at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a user to whom a benefit related to a specific person is to be given.

  Further, the present invention can be applied to a case where at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a user to which a privilege related to a specific character is to be given, instead of a specific person.

  Here, the “specific character” is, for example, a famous character. Specifically, a game character appearing in a famous game series corresponds to an example of “specific character”. Note that the “specific character” is not limited to a game character appearing in a game. For example, a character that appears in a famous cartoon, novel, or animation is also an example of the “specific character”. Further, for example, a character created as a fictional idol singer also corresponds to an example of the “specific character”.

  The “privilege related to a specific character” is, for example, a right to participate in an event (event) of the specific character. The “event” may be performed on a system via a communication network or may be performed at an actual venue. For example, a game in which a specific character appears corresponds to an example of the “event”. Further, for example, a performance of a specific character (a concert of a fictional idol singer or the like) also corresponds to an example of the “event”.

  The “privilege related to a specific character” may be, for example, data (image data, music data, moving image data, etc.) relating to the specific character. Further, the “privilege related to the specific character” may be, for example, goods related to the specific character.

  In the case of this modification, the updating unit 130 updates the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user based on the user's play content in the game related to the specific game object corresponding to the specific character. I do. In this case, for example, the specific character itself corresponds to an example of “specific game object”.

  Further, in the case of this modification, the grant target user selection unit 140 stores at least one of the plurality of users as the grant target of the privilege related to the specific character in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users. The selection is made based on the data of the specific game object.

  By doing so, it is possible to give a privilege related to the specific character to at least one user. In addition, it is possible to place the user in an active position as to whether or not the user is selected as a target to which a benefit related to the specific character is given, and as a result, to try to obtain a benefit related to the specific character. Motivation of the user can be improved.

  [7. Supplementary Note] From the above description, the present invention can be grasped, for example, as follows. In addition, in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention, reference numerals described in the drawings are appropriately written in parentheses, but the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments.

  1) The game system (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention has a plurality of objects to which a privilege (for example, a right to participate in a special game with a professional sparrow) associated with a specific person (for example, a professional sparrow) is given. In the game system (1) for selecting at least one of the users, the identification of the user based on the user's play contents in a game related to a specific game object (for example, a sparrow character) corresponding to the specific person or the specific character Updating means (130) for updating data of the specific game object (for example, a familiarity parameter of a sparrow character held by the user) stored in association with information; At least one of the users is associated with the identification information of each of the plurality of users. Is 憶, and a data of the specific game object (e.g., the plurality of closeness parameter for each held to have Janshi character users) selecting means for selecting on the basis of the (140).

  11) The game control device (10 or 30) according to one aspect of the present invention selects at least one of a plurality of users as a target to which a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character is to be given. ), Data of the specific game object corresponding to the specific person or the specific character, wherein at least one of the plurality of users is stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users as a target to which the privilege is to be provided. The data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is selected based on the user's play content in a game related to the specific game object. Data.

  12) The program according to one embodiment of the present invention functions a computer as the game system (1) according to any one of 1) to 10) or the game control device (10 or 30) according to 11). It is a program to make it.

  13) An information storage medium according to one embodiment of the present invention is a computer-readable information storage medium that stores the program described in 12).

  14) The control method of the game system (1) according to one aspect of the present invention is a control method of a game system in which at least one of a plurality of users is selected from among a plurality of users as a target to which a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character is to be given. An updating step (S122) of updating data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user, based on the content of the user's play in the game relating to the specific game object corresponding to the specific person or the specific character. And a selecting step of selecting at least one of a plurality of users as a target to which the privilege is to be given based on the data of the specific game object stored in association with identification information of each of the plurality of users ( S132).

  15) The control method of the game control device (10 or 30) according to one aspect of the present invention is a game control method in which at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a target to which a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character is given. In the control method of the device (10 or 30), the specific person or the specific character, wherein at least one of a plurality of users is stored in association with identification information of each of the plurality of users as a target to which the privilege is to be given. And a selection step (S132) for selecting based on the data of the specific game object corresponding to the specific game object. Is updated based on the content of the play.

  According to the inventions described in the above 1), 11) to 15), the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is updated based on the play contents of the user, and the specific person or the specific character is updated. Since at least one of the plurality of users is selected based on the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users as the grant target of the related benefit, the content of the user's play Has an effect on the selection of the privilege grant target. This allows the user to be in an active position as to whether or not the user is selected as a privilege grant target, and as a result, a user who seeks a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character. Motivation can be improved.

  2) In one aspect of the present invention, an acquisition unit (160) for acquiring play frequency information on a play frequency of the game of each of the plurality of users may be included. The selection means (140) stores at least one of the plurality of users as the target to which the privilege is to be provided in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users, the data of the specific game object, The selection may be made based on the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users.

  According to the invention described in 2), at least one of the plurality of users is selected based on the play frequency information of each of the plurality of users as a target to which the privilege related to the specific person or the specific character is to be provided. Therefore, the frequency at which the user plays the game influences the selection of the privilege grant target. This makes it possible to encourage a user who wants to obtain a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character to play a game.

  3) In one embodiment of the present invention, at least one selected by the user from among a plurality of specific game objects respectively corresponding to a plurality of specific persons or specific characters is set as an update target (for example, a partner) of the user. A setting means (120) may be included. The updating means (130) is a first specific person (for example, professional sparrow player A) or a first specific game object (for example, a sparrow character A) corresponding to the specific character among the plurality of specific persons or specific characters. Is set as an update target of the user, the data of the first specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user (for example, the (Intimacy parameter) may be updated based on the content of the user's play in the game. The selection means (140) is configured to provide at least one of the plurality of users as an object to be given a privilege (for example, a right to participate in a special game with the professional sparrow player A) related to the first specific person or the specific character. Is stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users and stored in the data of the first specific game object (for example, the familiarity parameter of the sparrow character A owned by each of the plurality of users). You may make it select based on.

  According to the invention described in 3), when the first specific game object corresponding to the first specific person or the specific character among the plurality of specific persons or the specific characters is set as the update target of the user, The data of the first specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is updated based on the content of the play of the user, and a plurality of objects to which a privilege related to the first specific person or the specific character is to be given are provided. At least one of the users is selected based on the data of the first specific game object stored in association with the identification information of each of the plurality of users. For this reason, according to the present invention, it becomes possible for the user to aim at obtaining a privilege related to a desired specific person or specific character among the plurality of specific persons or specific characters. In addition, since the content of the user's play influences the selection of the grant target of the privilege related to the desired specific person or the specific character, the user is required to take an active position as to whether or not the user is selected as the grant target. It is possible to stand. As a result, it is possible to improve a user's willingness to acquire a privilege related to a desired specific person or specific character.

  4) In one aspect of the present invention, when the update target of the user is changed from the first specific game object to another specific game object, the update target is stored in association with the identification information of the user. Means (130) for updating the data of one specific game object so as to be disadvantageous when the user is selected as a target to which a privilege related to the first specific person or the specific character is to be given may be included. .

  According to the invention described in 4), when the update target of the user is changed from the first specific game object to another specific game object, the first specification stored in association with the identification information of the user Since the data of the game object is updated so as to be disadvantageous when the user is selected as a target to which the privilege related to the first specific person or the specific character is to be given, the update target is unnecessarily provided to the user. It is possible to encourage not to change. If the update target is changed unnecessarily, the load on the game system may increase. However, according to the present invention, it is possible to prompt the user not to change the update target unnecessarily. As a result, an increase in the load on the game system can be suppressed.

  5) In one aspect of the present invention, the data of the specific game object, which is stored in association with the identification information of the user, based on the number of times or frequency of change of the update target of the user, the user A means (130) for updating so as to be disadvantageous after being selected as a grant target may be included.

  According to the invention described in 5), based on the number of times or frequency of change of the update target of the user, the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is determined by the user as a target to which the privilege is to be granted. Updates can be made to be disadvantageous for selection. For example, when the number of times of change or the frequency of change of the update target of the user is large, the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is disadvantageously selected when the user is selected as a target to which the privilege is given. It becomes possible to be updated. As a result, it is possible to prompt the user not to change the update target unnecessarily. If the update target is changed unnecessarily, the load on the game system may increase. However, according to the present invention, it is possible to prompt the user not to change the update target unnecessarily. As a result, an increase in the load on the game system can be suppressed.

  6) In one aspect of the present invention, for at least one of the plurality of specific game objects, control for displaying information on the number of users for which the specific game object is set as the update target on display means is performed. It may include a display control means (110) for performing.

  According to the invention described in (6), since information on the number of users for whom at least one of the plurality of specific game objects is set as an update target is displayed on the display means, the specific game object is displayed. The user can grasp the number of users for whom the object is set as an update target. According to the present invention, since the number of users for which the specific game object is set as an update target is equivalent to the number of users aiming to obtain a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character corresponding to the specific game object, The user can grasp the number of users aiming to obtain a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character. According to the present invention, it can be determined that the greater the number of users aiming to acquire a privilege related to the same specific person or the specific character, the more competitors and the lower the possibility of acquiring the privilege is. It becomes possible for the user to grasp whether or not it is unlikely that the privilege related to the person or the specific character can be obtained.

  7) In one aspect of the present invention, the user stores the specific game object data stored in association with the user's identification information based on the elapsed time from the previous playing time of the game by the user. A means (130) for updating as a disadvantage when being selected as a privilege grant target may be included.

  According to the invention described in 7), based on the elapsed time from the previous play time of the user's game, the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is stored in the target It can be updated so that it is disadvantageous when it is selected. This makes it possible to encourage a user who wants to acquire a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character to consider the time elapsed since the previous play. For example, according to the present invention, when the elapsed time from the previous play time of the game of the user is equal to or longer than a predetermined time, the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user, It becomes possible to update it so as to be disadvantageous after being selected as a grant target. Accordingly, it is possible to encourage a user who wants to obtain a privilege related to a specific person or a specific character not to allow the elapsed time from the previous play time to be equal to or longer than a predetermined time, and to continuously or periodically play the game. It is possible to encourage the player to play.

  8) In one aspect of the present invention, the data of the specific game object, which is stored in association with the identification information of the user selected as the target to which the privilege is to be given by the selection unit, is set as the target for the user to grant the privilege. A means (130) for updating again so as to be disadvantageous upon being selected again may be included.

  According to the invention described in 8), the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user selected as the target to which the privilege is to be provided is disadvantageous in that the user is again selected as the target to which the privilege is to be provided. , It is possible to make it difficult for the same user to be selected as a privilege grant target many times. For example, a user who has been playing a game for some time may be in an advantageous state in which the user is likely to be selected as a privilege grant target as a result of repeatedly updating the data of the specific game object. Such a user may be selected as a privilege grant target many times. In this regard, if the same user is selected as a privilege grant target many times, the motivation of other users to acquire the privilege may be impaired. The occurrence of inconvenience can be suppressed.

  9) In one aspect of the present invention, when the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is in a predetermined state, the selection unit (140) receives a request from the user. If accepted, a means for executing a lottery process for determining whether or not to select the user as a target to which the privilege is to be given may be included. When the request is received from the user, the game system updates the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user from the predetermined state to another state (130). ) May be included.

  According to the invention described in 9), when the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is in a predetermined state, and when a request is received from the user, the user is granted a privilege. A lottery process is performed to determine whether or not to be selected as an application target, and the data of the specific game object stored in association with the identification information of the user is updated from a predetermined state to another state. For this reason, when the user sets the data of the specific game object to the predetermined state, the user obtains the privilege grant target in exchange for updating the data of the specific game object from the predetermined state to another state. Can be arbitrarily selected whether to challenge the lottery.

  10) In one aspect of the present invention, the selecting means (140) selects at least one of the plurality of users as a target to be granted a right to participate in a game in which the specific person or the specific character participates. It may be.

  According to the invention described in 10), since at least one of a plurality of users is selected as a target to which a right to participate in a game in which a specific person or a specific character participates is selected, the user is associated with the specific person or the specific character.
