  In a game like Patent Literature 1, an upper limit (level upper limit value) is often set as a limit of an increase in a level. In such a game, after the level reaches the level upper limit, the acquired experience value is often stopped (increased or accumulated) when the upper limit is reached (because the level cannot be increased). In such a case, the acquired experience value after reaching the upper limit value is equivalent to being wasted. As a result, there is a possibility that the user's willingness (motivation) for the game is reduced. On the other hand, if the level has reached the level upper limit, no further increase in the level can be expected. Therefore, even if the acquired experience value is counted after the level upper limit value, it does not contribute to the level increase. In consideration of these, it can be considered that the value of the acquired experience value changes before and after reaching the level upper limit value, although the acquired experience value is the same.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a game system or the like that can manage the amount of experience value acquired as another value by using different management conditions.

  The game system of the present invention is a game system that provides a game in which a level value for defining a parameter used for progress increases in accordance with an amount of experience value given based on a play situation, Condition determining means for determining whether or not another management condition for managing the experience value as an amount of acquisition of a value different from the amount of acquisition of the experience value when the experience value is provided is satisfied; Experience that increases the amount of experience value gained when the management condition is not satisfied, and increases the amount of gained another value when the different management condition is satisfied, as the provision of the experience value based on the play situation. Value assigning means.

  On the other hand, the computer program of the present invention is configured to cause a computer to function as each unit of the above-described game system.

  In addition, the control method of the present invention is incorporated in a game system that provides a game in which a level value for defining a parameter used for progress increases in accordance with an amount of experience value provided based on a play situation. Condition determination procedure for determining whether or not another management condition for managing the experience value as an amount of acquisition of a value different from the amount of acquisition of the experience value when the experience value is provided to the computer to be performed is satisfied. And granting the experience value based on the play situation, respectively, when the different management condition is not satisfied, the amount of the experience value acquired, and when the different management condition is satisfied, the different value acquisition amount.

May be.

  The information area 48 is an area for presenting various information related to the game. The information area 48 includes, for example, a name area 48A, a rank area 48B, a physical strength value area 48C, and a currency area 48D. The name area 48A includes a name (“gogo”) of the user during the game and various titles for the user prepared during the game (when the play situation satisfies various grant conditions, the condition is satisfied). Are often provided to correspond to some of the ranks described below, and often function as a type of information indicating the user's rank, but are provided independently of the rank. This is an area for displaying a title (“Red Crane Gakuen Gold Student”) given to the user who is playing the game during the play.

  The rank area 48B is an area for displaying a rank value indicating the rank of the user. The rank is a concept indicating a degree, a rank, or the like, and has a meaning corresponding to a so-called level. For this reason, the rank value functions as a level value indicating the degree of growth in the game of the user, and the larger the value, the more often the game has been played. As the rank value, an appropriate element such as a numerical value, a letter such as an alphabet, or a symbol (which can be distinguished from each other and whose degree can be specified) may be used. In the example of FIG. 3, a numerical value (“75”) is used. Have been. The rank value is a value for defining various parameters. That is, various parameters such as a physical strength value described later are defined according to the rank value. The rank value increases in accordance with the experience value given based on the play situation of the character breeding game (for example, a play result such as a score of a breeding music game). Therefore, information on the amount of experience value acquired is also displayed in the rank area 48B. Specifically, the rank area 48B includes the experience value gauge EG. The experience value gauge EG is an image that functions as a gauge indicating the amount of experience value acquired on the home screen 40. The experience value gauge EG presents information on the amount of experience value acquired up to the present (hatched right) and the remaining amount (open) until the next rank value increase (rise). The relationship between the amount of experience value acquired and the increase in rank value will be further described later.

  The currency area 48D is an area for displaying information relating to a currency value that functions as currency in the game (hereinafter, may be referred to as in-game currency). The in-game currency is a value that is consumed to use a predetermined function such as purchase of an item or provision of various lottery opportunities (play of the above-mentioned lottery game). The in-game currency is purchased, for example, with the consumption of real currency (which may be collected as well as the price for play). In the currency area 48D, for example, a currency balance area 48D1 and a currency purchase icon 48D2 are provided. The currency balance area 48D1 is an area for presenting the balance (“0”) of the in-game currency currently owned by the user. The currency purchase icon 48D2 is an icon that functions as a touch position for purchasing in-game currency (increasing the balance). Specifically, the currency purchase icon 48D2 functions as a touch-operated position for requesting purchase of in-game currency. With the touch operation on the currency purchase icon 48D2, for example, an additional area (so-called pop-up) for selecting a purchase amount or confirming whether or not to execute the purchase may be further presented.

  The physical strength value area 48C is an area for displaying information regarding the physical strength value. The physical strength value is a value consumed for giving various progress such as use of an event to the character breeding game. The physical fitness value is set for each user as the physical fitness value of the user. Such a physical strength value may be used for giving various kinds of progress, but is consumed, for example, for providing (utilizing) the above-mentioned use event or for playing a music game. The physical strength value gradually recovers to the maximum value (may change according to the level or the like) with the passage of time. In the character breeding game, an item for recovering a physical strength value by a predetermined amount (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a recovery item) is also prepared. A limit (for example, an amount such as a period, the number of times, or a maximum value) may be set for the recovery of the physical strength value by such a recovery item, or use may be allowed without any restriction.

  The physical strength value area 48C includes, for example, a physical strength value presentation area 48C1 and a recovery icon 48C2. The physical strength value presentation area 48C1 is an area for presenting the current value (remaining amount) and the maximum value of the physical strength value of each user. In the example of FIG. 3, “30” is presented as the user's current physical strength value (the numerator of “30/30”) and the maximum value (the denominator of “30/30”). The recovery icon 48C2 is an icon that functions as a touch position for recovering a physical strength value. More specifically, the recovery icon 48C2 functions as a position where a touch operation is performed to request recovery of the physical strength value. With the touch operation on the recovery icon 48C2, for example, an additional area (a so-called pop-up) for selecting a recovery item for recovering the physical strength value or confirming whether or not such a recovery item can be used is further presented. May be done. Then, when the recovery item is actually used (consumed) by such a touch operation, the physical strength value is recovered by a predetermined amount.

  The character image CA is an image corresponding to each character. On the home screen 40, a character image CA corresponding to each character constituting the dance unit to be bred is appropriately displayed. In the example of FIG. 3, the home screen 40 displays three character images CA corresponding to three (all) characters constituting the dance unit.

  The physical strength value presentation area 48C1 is not limited to such a physical strength value of the user. For example, information on a physical strength value relating to a character that meets appropriate conditions, such as a character specified by a predetermined specifying unit such as a cursor, is displayed. May be presented. Alternatively, the strength values of all the characters may be presented in the strength value presentation area 48C1. Similarly, the arrangement of each character image CA on the home screen 40 may be arbitrary. For example, even if a character (a so-called pushing member) most recommended by the user is determined according to advance designation or a condition such as a play situation, and the character image CA of such a character is arranged at the foreground on the home screen 40, Good. Alternatively, the arrangement of each character image CA may be determined based on the designation of the user. Furthermore, a level value (rank value) may be appropriately set for each character or each team (unit). The upper limit values of various parameters defining each character or team may be appropriately defined according to such a level value. Alternatively, one of the rank value of the user and the rank value of each character (or team) may be omitted. Similarly, the amount of experience value acquisition is not limited to the experience value gauge EG of the rank area 48B, and may be presented at an appropriate place by an appropriate method.

  The experience value gauge EG will be further described with reference to FIG. In a character training game, a result screen may be displayed after a mini game such as a music game. The result screen is a game screen for presenting a play result of the mini game. The experience value gauge EG may be presented on such a result screen. FIG. 4 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of such a result screen. Further, the example of FIG. 4 shows an example of a result screen displayed after a music game provided as a battle-type game. In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, the result screen 50F includes a battle result display area 50F1, a music information area 50F2, and an acquisition information area 50F3.

  The battle result display area 50F1 is an area for presenting a battle result (for example, “WIN” meaning victory) in the music game. The music information area 50F2 is an area for presenting information on music used for playing in the music game. In the music information area 50F2, for example, a name (“A music”) and its difficulty level (“NORMAL”) are displayed as music information. The acquisition information area 50F3 is an area for presenting information of various values given according to the result of playing the music game. Appropriate values may be adopted as such various values, but in the example of FIG. 4, experience values and items are given as one type of such values. Therefore, the acquired information area 50F3 includes, as such value information, information on the acquired amount of experience value (“+957”) and the item (“A item”). In addition, information relating to the rank value and the cumulative amount of the experience value is also displayed as an element (value) affected by the amount of the experience value acquired.

  Specifically, the acquired information area 50F3 includes an acquired experience value section F31, a rank information section F32, an accumulated experience value section F33, and a reward information section F34. The acquired experience value part F31 is a part for displaying information on the amount of experience value acquired through playing the current music game. Further, the reward information section F34 is a part for displaying information on items given as a reward through the current play of the music game. For this reason, the information of “+957” is displayed as the acquired amount of the current experience value in the acquired experience value part F31, and the information of “A item” is displayed in the reward information part F34 as the item given this time. I have.

  On the other hand, the rank information section F32 is a part for displaying the rank value of the user after reflecting the amount of experience value acquired this time. In the example of FIG. 4, the information of "1UP" and "76" is displayed in the rank information section F32. “1UP” indicates that the rank value of the user increases by one according to the amount of experience value acquired this time, and “76” indicates the rank value of the user after such increase. That is, in addition to the information on the rank value of the user after reflecting the acquired amount of the experience value acquired this time, the rank information unit F32 includes a case where the rank value is increased by the acquired amount of the experience value. Information on the number of the raised rank values is also displayed.

  Further, the cumulative experience value part F33 is a part for displaying the cumulative experience value acquisition amount after reflecting the experience value acquisition amount acquired this time. In the cumulative experience value section F33, an experience value gauge EG is displayed to indicate such an accumulated amount of experience value. The experience value gauge EG displays a cumulative experience value acquisition amount EV (oblique right line) after reflecting the experience value acquisition amount acquired this time. Further, the experience value gauge EG is formed in a belt shape extending in the left-right direction, and the left end is set to zero (initial value), and the right end is the accumulated amount of experience value (hereinafter, referred to as “upward”) required to reach the next increase in rank value (rank up). , May be referred to as a rank-up reference amount), the experience value acquisition amount EV (right oblique line) changes to function. For this reason, in the experience value gauge EG, the unacquired portion of the experience value (white portion) functions as the remaining amount necessary for the next rank up. Then, the accumulated amount EV of the accumulated experience value (the portion corresponding to the oblique line on the right of the experience value gauge EG) and the numerical value corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount are displayed above the experience value gauge EG. . Specifically, in the example of FIG. 4, “597” is displayed as a numerical value corresponding to the accumulated amount of experience value EV, and “785” is displayed as a numerical value corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount. I have. These are displayed in a fractional format ("597/785") in which the former is arranged as the numerator and the latter as the denominator.

  Next, a case will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6 in which a part of the experience value acquisition amount is managed as another value. The experience value is a value calculated according to a predetermined rule based on a play situation. On the other hand, although it is calculated as an experience value according to the same rule, there may be a case where it is better to give another value depending on the playing situation of the game. Therefore, when another value is generated for such an experience value, a part of the experience value acquisition amount is managed separately from other acquisition amounts according to such a difference in the value. Specifically, for example, if another management condition for managing the amount of experience value acquisition as a value acquisition amount different from the experience value is satisfied, the acquisition amount calculated as the experience value according to the same rule is different. It is managed as the amount of value gained. As such another management condition, the user's selection or the play situation, etc., according to the use of another value (experience value of another management) (an application different from the original), that is, the effect (value) to be given to it. Appropriate conditions for use may be employed. For example, as an example of such a play situation, an item, an event, or a growth of a user (or a character) for temporarily stopping rank-up may be used. Then, the separate management condition may be satisfied when such a play situation occurs. Hereinafter, as an example, a case where the growth (rank value) of the user is used as another management condition will be described.

  Specifically, an upper limit value is set as the rank value as the limit of the rise. This is because an unlimited increase in the rank value is not preferable from the viewpoint of resources and the like. In many games of the same type, the amount of experience gained is often not accumulated after the rank value (level value) reaches the upper limit (level upper limit), but in character breeding games, such an upper limit is reached. The amount of experience gained is counted later. However, since the rank value has already reached the upper limit, the amount of experience value acquired cannot contribute to the rise of the rank value. For this reason, it is necessary to use the amount of experience value acquired before and after reaching such a level upper limit value. The case where such a rank value has reached the upper limit is used as an example of a play situation. In other words, if such a rank value has reached the upper limit, the separate management condition is satisfied, and the amount of gain after that (part of the amount of experience value) will be reduced (before reaching the level upper limit) It is managed separately from the amount earned.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the home screen 40 when the rank value has reached the upper limit value. As shown in FIG. 5, when the rank value has reached the upper limit value, the rank area 48B includes not only the experience value gauge EG but also the recovery gauge RG. That is, the display of the recovery gauge RG is added to the rank area 48B as compared with the example of FIG. The recovery gauge RG is an image that functions as a gauge indicating the amount of experience value acquired after the rank value reaches the upper limit. As with the experience value gauge EG, the recovery gauge RG is provided with the amount of experience value acquisition (from left to right) after reaching the level upper limit value and up to the present. That is, the amount of experience value acquired before and after reaching the level upper limit value is separately managed through the experience value gauge EG and the recovery gauge RG.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the result screen 50F when the rank value has reached the upper limit value. The example of FIG. 6 shows the result screen 50F when the music game is played in the example of FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6, a recovery gauge RG is displayed in the cumulative experience value section F33 in addition to the experience value gauge EG. The amount of experience value acquired this time (“648”) is reflected on the recovery gauge RG. Specifically, when the rank value has reached the upper limit value, the experience value gauge EG is filled (full) with the experience value acquisition amount EV. As a result, there is no room in the experience value gauge EG for further increasing the experience value acquisition amount EV. For this reason, the experience value acquired this time is reflected on the recovery gauge RG instead of the experience value gauge EG. In other words, it can be paraphrased that it is separately managed by the recovery gauge RG).

  In the example of FIG. 6, the experience value gauge EG is filled with the experience value acquisition amount EV from the left end to the right end. Further, since the rank value has already reached the upper limit value, there is no reference amount necessary for the next rank up. Therefore, above the experience value gauge EG, instead of the numerical value corresponding to the accumulated experience value EV and the numerical value corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount, the upper limit of the experience value acquisition amount EV is obtained. Is displayed. On the other hand, the recovery gauge RG is formed in a belt shape extending in the left-right direction similarly to the experience value gauge EG, and functions as an amount corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount at the left end as zero (initial value) and at the right end. The recovery gauge RG has another experience value (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a second experience value) different from the experience value of the experience value gauge EG (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a first experience value). Is displayed so as to show the accumulated amount.

  Further, similarly to the experience value gauge EG, in the recovery gauge RG, the unacquired portion (white portion) of the experience value functions as a remaining amount necessary until reaching the amount corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount. Further, above the recovery gauge RG, a numerical value (“17200”) corresponding to the cumulative amount RV of the accumulated second experience value (the portion corresponding to the left oblique line) and the next rank-up reference amount. A numerical value (“35373”) corresponding to the amount (the amount indicated by the right end) is displayed. These are displayed in a fractional format (“17200/35373”) in which the former is set as the numerator and the latter is set as the denominator, as in the case of the experience value gauge EG. The difference between the value (use) of the first experience value and the value (use) of the second experience value will be described later. In the examples of FIGS. 5 and 6, the acquired amount EV of the first experience value (experience value managed by the experience value gauge EG) is the second experience value (recovery gauge) as the acquired amount of the experience value of the present invention. The acquired amount RV of the experience value managed by the RG functions as an acquired amount of another value of the present invention. Similarly, the home screen 40 when the rank value has reached the upper limit or the result screen 50F when the rank value has reached the upper limit functions as an example of the game screen of the present invention. Further, the experience value gauge EG and the recovery gauge RG function as an experience value display unit and a value amount display unit of the present invention, respectively.

  The upper limit value of the rank value may be fixed (a similar state is maintained after reaching the upper limit value of the rank value) or may be variable. Once another management condition is satisfied, another management condition may not be satisfied again. That is, after the presentation of the second experience value acquisition amount RV through the recovery gauge RG is started, the accumulation of the first experience value acquisition amount EV may be restarted through the experience value gauge EG. In such a case, when the accumulation of the first experience value acquisition amount EV is resumed, the accumulation of the second experience value acquisition amount RV is stopped, and the display mode of the recovery gauge RG for presenting the accumulation is stopped. May be changed to an appropriate mode such as a non-display or a display that is difficult to see. For example, when the recovery gauge RG is displayed in a display mode that is difficult to see, the user can more strongly recognize the experience value gauge EG in which the accumulation of the first experience value acquisition amount EV has been resumed than the recovery gauge RG. . Further, it is possible to make the user easily recognize that the acquired amount RV of the second experience value accumulated in the recovery gauge RG is not discarded but is kept being held. Hereinafter, a case will be described in which, when the first experience value is given based on the play situation, the display mode of the second experience value acquisition amount RV is changed to an inconspicuous mode as an example.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the result screen 50F when the upper limit value of the rank value is changed from the example of FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7, the display mode of the recovery gauge RG is changed to gray display so as to be less noticeable as compared with the example of FIG. Further, with the change of the upper limit value, the display of the experience value gauge EG changes from a display filled with the first experience value acquisition amount EV from the left end to the right end to a display indicating the remaining amount from the rank up reference amount. Therefore, above the experience value gauge EG, the numerical value (“1433”) corresponding to the acquisition amount EV of the first experience value and the numerical value (“2055”) corresponding to the next rank-up reference amount are again displayed in a fractional format. Is displayed. Then, the accumulation destination of the experience value (“648” obtained this time) acquired according to the play result is changed to the experience value gauge EG. As a result, the acquired amount RV of the second experience value indicated by the recovery gauge RG (the accumulated amount of the acquired amount RV of the second experience value accumulated in the recovery gauge RG) reaches the upper limit of the new rank value again. (That is, another management condition is satisfied again), and it is not accumulated. The same applies to the rank area 48B of the home screen 40. That is, the recovery gauge RG in the rank area 48B also changes to the same display mode (including non-display).

  The display of the experience value gauge EG after the rank value reaches the upper limit value may be appropriate. For example, the display mode (including non-display mode) may be changed as appropriate, such as changing to an inconspicuous mode similarly to the recovery gauge RG after the upper limit value is changed. Similarly, the gain EV of the first experience value of the experience value gauge EG may be reset to an appropriate value such as an initial value (a value corresponding to the left end) after the rank value reaches the upper limit value. That is, the acquisition amount EV of the first experience value corresponding to the level upper limit value does not need to be continuously displayed as in the example of FIG.

  Next, the difference between the value of the first experience value (use) and the value of the second experience value (use) will be described with reference to FIGS. As described above, even after the rank value reaches the upper limit value (when the experience value gauge EG is full), the amount of experience value acquired is reflected on the recovery gauge RG as the second experience value acquisition amount RV. Since the rank value has already reached the upper limit, the gain of the experience value cannot contribute to the rise of the rank value. For this reason, the use of the first experience value is different from the use of the second experience value.

  First, the use of the first experience value will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the experience value before the rank value reaches the upper limit value, that is, the relationship between the first experience value acquisition amount EV and rank up. The example of FIG. 8 shows the experience value gauges EG corresponding to two states of (a) before rank up and (b) at rank up. As shown in FIG. 8, the amount EV of acquiring the first experience value of the experience value gauge EG gradually increases based on the playing situation, and when reaching the rank-up reference amount, a rank-up privilege is given. That is, the first experience value acquisition amount EV is used to determine whether or not to grant the rank-up privilege.

  Specifically, first, as shown by the experience value gauge EG of (a), the gain EV of the first experience value gradually increases with the acquisition of the experience value based on the play situation before rank improvement. Such an increase is expressed, for example, in the experience value gauge EG such that the first experience value acquisition amount EV fills a blank portion of the experience value gauge EG. That is, the acquisition amount EV of the first experience value continues to gradually expand to the range of the white portion so as to approach the rank-up reference amount. The rank-up reference amount is a value (acquired amount) that functions as a rank-up reference. Such a rank-up reference amount may be appropriately set. For example, the rank-up reference amount may be set for each rank value (or at predetermined intervals) so that the amount of experience value EV required until the rank is increased gradually increases as the rank value increases. . That is, the rank-up reference amount may change according to the rank value given by the reference amount. Alternatively, the rank-up reference amount may be the same acquisition amount regardless of the rank value.

  Subsequently, as shown by the experience value gauge EG of (b), the first experience value acquisition amount EV reaches the rank-up reference amount (the first experience value acquisition amount EV matches the rank-up reference amount). In such a case, the rank value increases by one. Such rank-up (increase in rank value) is accompanied by a rank-up privilege (effect). That is, at the time of rank up, a rank up privilege is given. The rank-up privilege may be appropriately configured, and includes, for example, a consumption-type privilege (effect) and a non-consumption-type privilege. The consumption type privilege is a type of privilege that is consumed in connection with the progress of the game (including the passage of time). Such a consumption-type privilege includes an item that is consumed (disappears) with use (for example, a recovery item or the like) or a value of a parameter that is decreased (consumed) with progression or the like is recovered. However, in the example of FIG. 8, recovery of the physical strength value is adopted as recovery of such a parameter value. The recovery of the physical strength value is a privilege for recovering the physical strength value by a predetermined amount. That is, the physical strength value is recovered by the predetermined amount as the rank-up privilege with the rank-up. Such a predetermined amount may be appropriately set. For example, as the predetermined amount, an amount corresponding to the maximum value of the physical fitness value (in this case, the maximum value, that is, the recovery exceeding the upper limit value of the parameter may be permitted) may be adopted, or the amount recovered to the maximum value ( An amount that changes according to the remaining amount) may be adopted. Further, such a predetermined amount may be related to, for example, equivalent to the recovery amount by the recovery item, or may be irrelevant.

  On the other hand, the non-consumed type privilege is a type of privilege that is not consumed even if the game progresses (the effect is maintained for a predetermined period and is fixed). The non-consumption type privilege includes, for example, an effect of increasing the upper limit value of various parameters (a denominator for a consumption type parameter, a value for a non-consumption type parameter, and the like). Such an increase in the upper limit value (maximum value) of the parameter is the original effect intended by the increase in the rank value. Various parameters may be used as such parameters, but in the example of FIG. 8, a physical strength value is used. That is, as the rank increases, the maximum value of the physical strength value increases as a rank-up privilege. Similarly, as such non-consumable benefits, items that do not disappear even when used (for example, costumes for characters) or various benefits such as giving special events (progress) may be used. In the example of FIG. 8, story release is employed. The story release is a privilege of newly releasing a story that can be viewed on the story screen. That is, with the rank up, a new story is released on the story screen as a rank up privilege. As an example, the first experience value acquisition amount EV functions as a value having such a use.

  The rank-up privilege may be appropriate as described above, and may be only an original privilege such as an increase in the upper limit value of the parameter (for example, an increase in the maximum value of the physical strength value). In other words, it does not need to include other additional benefits such as a consumption-type privilege or another non-consumption-type privilege such as story release.

  Subsequently, the use of the second experience value will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 shows the relationship between the experience value after the rank value reaches the upper limit value, that is, the second experience value acquisition amount RV and the amount corresponding to the rank-up reference amount (hereinafter sometimes referred to as privilege reference amount). FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the method. The example of FIG. 9 shows the recovery gauges RG corresponding to three states of (a) before reaching the privilege reference amount, (b) when reaching the privilege reference amount, and (c) after reaching the privilege reference amount. Is shown. As shown in FIG. 9, the acquisition amount RV of the second experience value of the recovery gauge RG gradually increases based on the play situation, as in the example of FIG. 8. On the other hand, the privilege at the time when the privilege reference amount is reached is different from that before the rank value reaches the upper limit value (the example in FIG. 8). Furthermore, unlike the experience value gauge EG, the second experience value acquisition amount RV of the recovery gauge RG is reset to zero (initial value) when reaching the privilege reference amount.

  Specifically, as shown by the recovery gauge RG in (b), the second experience value acquisition amount RV has reached the privilege reference amount (for example, a rank-up reference amount corresponding to the next time after reaching the upper limit value) ( When the bonus amount is increased from the initial value), a reference achievement privilege (effect) is provided instead of the rank-up privilege. Although an appropriate privilege may be used as such a standard achievement privilege, for example, a part of the rank-up privilege is used. Specifically, of the rank-up benefits, only consumption-type benefits are used as standard achievement benefits. In other words, in order to clarify the difference from rank-up (or to avoid substantially the same effect as rank-up), non-ranked benefits such as original benefits associated with rank-up are included in rank-up benefits. Granting of consumption-type benefits is omitted. For this reason, in the example of FIG. 9, the recovery of the physical strength value (recovery effect) is given as the reference achievement privilege. For example, if a non-consumable benefit such as story release is given as a standard achievement benefit, a difference in the progress of the game or a difference in the game will cause a difference between the user whose level value reaches the upper limit and other users. May become too large. In such a case, the probability of another user catching up with the user with the upper limit of the level (or the probability of winning) is reduced, so that there is a possibility that another user's willingness to continue the game is reduced. By giving such a recovery of the physical strength value (consumption-type privilege) as the reference achievement privilege, it is possible to eliminate these.

  Further, as shown by the recovery gauge RG in (c), when the second experience value acquisition amount RV reaches the privilege reference amount, the accumulated amount is reset (cleared) to the initial value. That is, the amount RV of the second experience value that has contributed to the provision of the reference achievement privilege is consumed. In this case, the accumulation of the second experience value acquisition amount RV is started again from the initial value after the physical strength value is restored with the arrival of the privilege reference amount. As described above, the second experience value acquisition amount RV is used to determine whether or not to grant the reference achievement privilege and to use the bonus. Before and after such a difference reaches the upper limit, the relationship between the amount of experience value acquisition and rank up (or reaching the privilege reference amount), in other words, the use of the first experience value and the use of the second experience value Occurs between

  As the privilege reference amount, a reference amount similar to the rank-up reference amount may be employed, or another unique (specific after reaching the upper limit) reference amount may be appropriately adopted. For example, a user whose rank value has reached an upper limit value can easily achieve a rank-up reference amount (that is, a reference achievement privilege is more likely to be provided) than before a rank value reaches an upper limit value as a rank-up reference amount. A small reference amount may be employed. When the experience value after the rank value reaches the upper limit is managed separately from the first experience value as the second experience value, the rank value is different from the rank-up reference amount as compared with the case where these are uniformly managed. It is easy to adopt the reference amount as the privilege reference amount. In addition, the standard achievement privilege is not limited to a part of the rank-up privilege. As the reference achievement privilege, a special privilege completely different from the rank-up privilege may be appropriately adopted. Further, as the standard achievement privilege, a non-consumption type privilege may be allowed as long as the privilege is substantially different from the rank-up.

  Next, details of the play data PD will be described. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the play data PD. The play data PD is data for managing the performance of each user regarding the game as described above. Such a play record includes information such as the above-described rank value, physical strength value, or experience value. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 10, the play data PD includes a play record PDR for managing these rank values and the like for each user. The play record PDR includes “user ID”, “rank”, “physical strength value (maximum)”, “physical strength value (remaining amount)”, “first experience value”, “second experience value”, and “story”. And "item" information.

  The “user ID” is a unique user ID for each user in order to identify each user (as long as an account of each user can be identified, one user may use a plurality of user IDs. 1 does not need to correspond). “Rank” is information indicating the rank value of each user. “Physical strength value (maximum)” and “physical strength value (remaining amount)” are information indicating the physical strength value. Specifically, “physical strength value (maximum)” is information indicating the maximum physical strength value. On the other hand, “physical strength value (remaining amount)” is information indicating the remaining amount (usable amount) of the physical strength value. For example, the current value (remaining amount) of the physical strength value presentation area 48C1 indicates the remaining amount (numerator in the example of FIG. 3) of the physical strength value indicated by the “physical value value (remaining amount)”, ) "Are displayed respectively (the denominator in the example of FIG. 3).

  Similarly, both the “first experience value” and the “second experience value” are information indicating the amount of acquisition of the experience value. Specifically, the “first experience value” is the first experience value acquisition amount EV, that is, the experience value acquisition amount accumulated when the rank value does not reach the upper limit (when the separate management condition is not satisfied). Is information indicating On the other hand, the “second experience value” indicates an acquisition amount RV of the second experience value, that is, an acquisition amount of the experience value accumulated when the rank value reaches the upper limit value (when another management condition is satisfied). Information. For example, the experience value gauge EG includes the first experience value acquisition amount EV indicated by “first experience value”, and the recovery gauge RG includes the second experience value acquisition amount RV indicated by “second experience value”. Each is displayed. “Story” is information indicating a story that can be viewed on the story screen. When there are a plurality of stories, information of a story ID for identifying each story for each story is described in “story”. Also, for example, when there is a story released by the story release, information of the story ID corresponding to such a story is described in “story”. “Item” is information indicating an item owned by each user. For example, the “item” has a unique item ID for each item (a unit of type may be used, in which case “item” may further include more information) in order to identify a plurality of items. Information is described. Then, similarly to the story, information of the item ID corresponding to the item given to the user as a reward or the like is described in the “item”. In the play record PDR, these pieces of information are recorded so as to be associated with each other.

  The play data PD is not limited to such information, and may include information on various play results to be managed. Alternatively, for example, a part of these pieces of information such as information on “physical strength value (maximum)” when the maximum physical strength value is fixedly set (uniquely acquired) according to the rank value is appropriately used. May be omitted. Further, for example, some of these pieces of information may be appropriately managed as separate data.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 11 to 13, the experience value increasing process, the reference achievement privilege granting process, and the post-upper limit experience value presenting process will be described. The experience value increase process is a process for increasing the amount of experience value acquisition based on the play situation. The data management unit 34 starts the experience value increasing process in FIG. 11 each time the play of a mini game for training, such as a music game (a game to which experience values are given), is ended. A play situation of a mini game (for example, a music game) is acquired (step S101). For example, when the nurturing game is a music game, the data management unit 34 acquires an acquired score (play result) obtained by playing the music game as such a play situation.

  Next, the data management unit 34 calculates the amount of experience value to be given this time (to be acquired by the user) based on the play situation acquired in step S101 (step S102). Such calculation may be realized, for example, through appropriate conversion data (not shown) that associates (maps) the acquired score and the amount of experience value as an example of a predetermined rule. Note that such calculation may be executed for presenting a play result through the progress control unit 33 after the end of the game as a part of the progress of the game. In that case, the data management unit 34 may acquire the amount of the experience value calculated as the play situation in step S101, and may omit the processing in step S102. Alternatively, the progress control unit 33 may use (acquire) the processing result of the experience value increasing processing to present the play result.

  Next, the data management unit 34 determines whether another management condition is satisfied (step S103). The separate management condition is satisfied, for example, when the rank value has reached the upper limit as described above. For this reason, the data management unit 34 determines whether or not the rank value of the user has reached the upper limit in step S103, for example. If the rank value of the user has not reached the upper limit value (if the separate management condition is not satisfied), the data management unit 34 calculates the amount of the experience value calculated in step S102 (or acquired in step S101) as the first experience value. The value acquisition amount EV is given to the user (step S104). Specifically, the data management unit 34 realizes such assignment by increasing the acquisition amount EV managed by the “first experience value” of the play data PD. That is, the data management unit 34 updates the play data PD so that the acquisition amount EV managed by the “first experience value” increases the amount of the experience value calculated in step S102.

  On the other hand, when the rank value of the user has reached the upper limit value (when another management condition is satisfied), the data management unit 34 calculates the amount of the experience value calculated in step S102 (or obtained in step S101) as the second value. The user is given an experience value acquisition amount RV (step S105). Specifically, the data management unit 34 realizes such assignment by increasing the acquisition amount RV managed by the “second experience value” of the play data PD. That is, the data management unit 34 updates the play data PD so that the acquisition amount RV managed by the “second experience value” increases by the amount of the experience value calculated in step S102. Then, the data management unit 34 terminates the current experience value increasing process after such an assignment (the assignment in step S104 or the assignment in step S105).

  According to the procedure of FIG. 11, an experience value is given to a user according to a playing situation of a music game or the like. More specifically, when the rank value of the user has not reached the upper limit value, the first experience value is given, and the acquisition amount EV managed by the “first experience value” of the play data PD increases. On the other hand, when the rank value of the user has reached the upper limit, the second experience value is given, and the acquisition amount RV managed by the “second experience value” of the play data PD increases. Furthermore, even after the rank value of the user reaches the upper limit value, if the upper limit value of the rank value is changed, the first experience value is again provided, and the “first experience value” of the play data PD is added. The acquisition amount EV managed by is increased. That is, when the upper limit value of the rank value is changed, accumulation of the first experience value acquisition amount EV (giving of the first experience value) is restarted. On the other hand, in such a case, accumulation of the second experience value acquisition amount EV (giving of the second experience value) is stopped. When the rank value reaches the changed upper limit again, accumulation of the second experience value acquisition amount EV (giving of the second experience value) is restarted, and the same flow is repeated thereafter.

  On the other hand, the standard achievement privilege granting process is a process for granting the standard achievement privilege. The data management unit 34 starts the reference achievement privilege giving process of FIG. 12, for example, every time the experience value increasing process ends (or may be limited to the case where the second experience value is given in the process), First, it is determined whether or not the acquired amount RV of the second experience value has reached the privilege reference amount (step S201). The data management unit 34 performs this determination with reference to the information of the “second experience value” of the play data PD. Specifically, the data management unit 34 determines whether or not the acquired amount RV managed by the “second experience value” of the play data PD has reached the privilege reference amount. Then, when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value has not reached the privilege reference amount, the data management unit 34 skips the subsequent processing and ends the current reference achievement privilege granting process.

  On the other hand, when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value has reached the privilege reference amount, the data management unit 34 provides the reference achievement privilege (step S202). When the recovery of the physical strength value similar to the rank-up privilege is used as the reference achievement privilege, such an assignment is realized by updating the “physical strength value (remaining amount)” of the play data PD. That is, the data management unit 34 updates the “physical strength value (remaining amount)” so that the “physical strength value (remaining amount)” recovers by the predetermined amount. After giving such a standard achievement privilege, the data management unit 34 resets the second experience value acquisition amount RV to an initial value (for example, zero) (step S203). In other words, the data management unit 34 decreases the increase (acquisition amount equivalent to the privilege reference amount) from the previous privilege grant to the current privilege grant from the gain amount RV of the second experience value. Specifically, the data management unit 34 updates the play data PD so that the acquisition amount RV managed by the “second experience value” becomes an initial value (for example, zero) (or decreases by an increase). Thus, such a reset is realized. Then, after such a reset, the data management unit 34 ends the current reference achievement privilege granting process.

  According to the procedure of FIG. 12, the reference achievement privilege is given based on the second experience value acquisition amount RV, that is, the experience value acquisition amount after the rank value reaches the upper limit value. For example, when the recovery of the physical strength value in the example of FIG. 9 is used as the reference achievement privilege, the physical strength value is recovered by a predetermined amount as the gain amount RV of the second experience value reaches the privilege reference amount. That is, after the rank value reaches the upper limit value, unlike the case before reaching the upper limit value, only a part of the privilege at the time of rank up is given. In addition, since such determination is performed based on the information of the “second experience value” of the play data PD, even if the upper limit value of the rank value is changed, the second experience value acquired so far is obtained. Is acquired when the rank value again reaches the upper limit value. Then, a reference achievement privilege is provided based on the amount of second experience value acquired RV.

  The post-upper-limit experience value presentation process is a process for presenting the user with the amount of second experience value acquisition RV. More specifically, the post-upper-limit experience value presentation process is executed to present the second experience value acquisition amount RV through the recovery gauge RG. Further, the recovery gauge RG may be always displayed or may be appropriately displayed according to various conditions. In the example of FIG. 13, the recovery gauge RG is displayed on the home screen 40 or the like according to the display conditions. Is displayed. Further, an appropriate condition for determining whether or not to display the recovery gauge RG may be adopted as the display condition. However, the example of FIG. 13 is applied when the second experience value acquisition amount RV is not zero (the second experience value). (If a value has been obtained). In this case, when displaying the home screen 40 or displaying the result screen 50F, the progress control unit 33 starts the experience value presenting process after the upper limit of FIG. 13, and acquires the play data PD first (step S301). ), The second experience value acquisition amount RV is specified based on the “second experience value” information included therein (step S302).

  Subsequently, the progress control unit 33 determines whether the display condition is satisfied based on the second experience value acquisition amount RV specified in step S302 (step S303). Specifically, the progress control unit 33 determines that the display condition is not satisfied when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is zero. Alternatively, even if the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is zero, it may be determined that the display condition is satisfied when the second experience value is applied after being reset with the provision of the reference achievement privilege. In this case, the progress control unit 33 further determines whether or not the reset has been performed even if the second experience value acquisition amount RV is zero. The presence or absence of such a reset may be managed as appropriate, but may be managed, for example, as a part of the information of the “second experience value” in the play data PD, or as information other than that. Then, when the display condition is not satisfied, that is, when the second experience value acquisition amount RV is zero (or when the second experience value acquisition amount RV is not reset), the progress control unit 33 performs the subsequent processing. Is skipped, and the present post-upper-limit experience value presentation process ends.

  On the other hand, when the display condition is satisfied, that is, when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is not zero (or the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is reset even if it is zero), the progress control unit 33 recovers. The display mode when displaying the second experience value acquisition amount RV through the use gauge RG is determined (step S304). The progress control unit 33 performs such determination according to whether or not the rank value has reached the upper limit value. Specifically, the progress control unit 33 displays an inconspicuous mode (for example, gray display) when the rank value has not reached the upper limit, and a normal display (for example, experience display) when the rank value has reached the upper limit. Display similar to the value gauge EG).

  Subsequently, the progress control unit 33 presents the acquired amount RV of the second experience value managed by the “second experience value” of the play data PD through the recovery gauge RG in the display mode determined in step S304 (step S304). S305). Further, when the presentation target is the result screen 50F, the progress control unit 33 sets the numerical value (for example, “17200” in the example of FIG. 6) above the recovery gauge RG as a numerical value (for example, “17200” in the example of FIG. 6) corresponding to the second experience value acquisition amount RV. To present. In this case, the progress control unit 33 may similarly present information on the privilege reference amount in a predetermined format above the recovery gauge RG. Such information on the privilege reference amount may be appropriately managed according to, for example, each rank. After presenting the second experience value acquisition amount RV, the progress control unit 33 ends the present upper limit experience value presentation process.

  According to the procedure of FIG. 13, the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is presented on the home screen 40 or the like through the recovery gauge RG. In addition, whether or not such presentation is possible is determined according to the display condition. Specifically, the second experience value acquisition amount RV is presented through the recovery gauge RG only when the second experience value acquisition amount RV has been acquired. That is, when the second experience value acquisition amount RV has never been acquired, presentation of the second experience value acquisition amount RV through the recovery gauge RG is omitted. If the recovery gauge RG is displayed until the second experience value acquisition amount RV has never been obtained, the user feels uncomfortable with the recovery gauge RG in which the experience value is not accumulated (presented). Although there is a possibility of being remembered, such discomfort is suppressed by the omission based on the display condition. Furthermore, even when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value is presented through the recovery gauge RG, the display mode is changed according to whether or not the rank value has reached the upper limit value. Specifically, when the rank value has reached the upper limit value, it is displayed as usual as with the experience value gauge EG, and when the rank value has not reached the upper limit value, it is less noticeable (for example, gray). Color).

  As described above, according to this embodiment, if the separate management condition is satisfied, that is, if the rank value has reached the upper limit, the second experience value EV is replaced with the second experience value EV. The amount of experience value RV is increased. In other words, the experience value based on the play situation is assigned and managed as the second experience value for a different standard achievement privilege (recovery of physical strength value), instead of the original first experience value for rank up. Therefore, by using such another management condition, the same experience value as the first experience value acquisition amount EV can be managed as a second experience value acquisition amount RV different from the first experience value acquisition amount EV. Thereby, the management destination of the experience value can be changed between the first experience value and the second experience value before and after the rank value reaches the upper limit value, so that the same experience value is obtained before and after the rank value reaches the upper limit value. Can have different values (or uses). Specifically, for example, different values (effects) or uses are given to the first experience value acquisition amount EV and the second experience value acquisition amount RV, for example, in such a way as to rank up and recover the physical strength value. it can. As a result, it is possible to give diversity to the experience value given by the same predetermined rule (condition).

  In particular, when the upper limit of the rank value is changed and appropriately raised, high utility can be obtained by separately managing the same experience value according to the value. Specifically, for example, even after the rank value reaches the upper limit value, the same amount of first experience value is counted as the EV EV, and a method of utilizing the same standard achievement privilege may be used. Therefore, when the upper limit value is changed, there may be a difference in the amount EV of the first experience value possessed by each user. The amount EV) may be different. Alternatively, since such a difference occurs, there is a possibility that the first experience value may be acquired until immediately before the next rank-up reference amount in accordance with the change of the upper limit value. Then, the game may be avoided after the first experience value is acquired to a desired stage in order to maintain the acquired amount. In the first place, it is difficult to obtain the desired amount of acquisition itself (in many cases, the desired amount of acquisition is mixed), and therefore, the desired amount of acquisition cannot be obtained, which may lead to a decrease in the motivation of the user for the game. There is. On the other hand, if the same experience value is managed separately according to the rank value before and after the rank value reaches the upper limit value, such as the first experience value and the second experience value, as described above, the upper limit of the rank value is temporarily set. Even if the value increases, there is no difference between users in the first experience value acquisition amount EV, so that fairness can be ensured. Further, since the first experience value and the second experience value are managed separately, there is no need to accumulate the experience value in advance immediately before the next rank-up reference amount. For this reason, withholding of play can also be suppressed. As a result, a desired acquisition amount does not occur, and therefore, a decrease in motivation when it cannot be obtained can be suppressed. In other words, the disadvantage that can occur in the case of the method of counting as the same experience value even after the upper limit of the rank value can be eliminated, so that higher usefulness can be exhibited as compared with such a method.

  Further, as described above, the second experience value acquisition amount RV is used to determine whether or not to grant the reference achievement privilege. Specifically, when the second experience value acquisition amount RV has increased (reached) to the privilege reference amount, a recovery effect of the physical strength value is given as the reference achievement privilege instead of the rank-up privilege. Therefore, the amount of second experience value acquisition RV, that is, the amount of experience value acquisition after reaching the level upper limit, can be used for granting such a privilege. As a result, the amount of experience value acquired after reaching the level upper limit value can be used more effectively than in a case where the amount of experience value is not counted and wasted.

  Further, with the provision of such a standard achievement privilege, for example, the acquisition amount EV of the second experience value of the recovery gauge RG is reset to zero (initial value). In other words, the reward for the award of the privilege decreases from the acquisition amount EV of the second experience value. As a result, it is possible to reduce a disadvantage such as a processing load or an increase in resources that may occur when the amount of experience value is increased without limit. As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the user's motivation (motivation) for the game, to promote the use of the game, and to improve the interest of the game.

  In the above embodiment, the data management unit 34 of the game machine 3 functions as the condition determining unit and the experience value providing unit of the present invention by executing the procedure of FIG. Specifically, the data management unit 34 of the game machine 3 executes the process of step S103 of FIG. 11 as a condition determining unit, and executes the processes of steps S104 and S105 of FIG. Each works. In addition, the data management unit 34 of the game machine 3 functions as a privilege granting unit of the present invention by executing the process of step S202 in FIG. On the other hand, the progress control unit 33 of the game machine 3 functions as a value presenting unit of the present invention by executing the processing of steps S303 to S305 in FIG.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and may be embodied in an appropriately modified or changed embodiment. For example, in the above-described embodiment, when the acquired amount RV of the second experience value reaches the privilege reference amount, the reference achievement privilege is automatically given with the arrival. However, the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment. For example, the grant of the standard achievement privilege may be executed at an appropriate time, such as a user's designation. In such a case, for example, depending on the time, the amount RV of acquiring the second experience value may be accumulated in excess of the privilege reference amount. In such a case, the second experience value acquisition amount RV may or may not be reset when the privilege reference amount is reached. When resetting when the privilege reference amount is reached, information indicating the right to grant the reference achievement privilege may be separately counted with such arrival. In such a case, such a right (or information indicating the right) may function as a privilege of the present invention. On the other hand, when the reward is not reset when the bonus reference amount is reached, the acquisition amount RV of the second experience value may be reset in accordance with the subsequent grant of the reference achievement privilege. If the second experience value acquisition amount RV is not reset when the privilege reference amount is reached, the second experience value acquisition amount RV exceeding the privilege reference amount is accumulated. Therefore, the reset of the second experience value acquisition amount RV is not limited to the reset to the initial value. In this case, the predetermined amount as the experience value for giving the reference achievement privilege (for example, an increase from zero to the benefit reference amount in the example of FIG. 9) is subtracted from the second experience value acquisition amount RV so as to be reset. May be done. That is, in this case, the second experience value acquisition amount RV may be reduced by a predetermined amount instead of being uniformly reset to the initial value. The same applies to the first experience value acquisition amount EV.

  In the above-described embodiment, the game machine 3 provides a character breeding game. However, the game provided by the game machine 3 is not limited to such a game. The game machine 3 may provide an appropriate game including an experience value and a rank (level) using the experience value. Then, various experience values (or values corresponding thereto) included in such a game may be configured as described above.

  In addition, the center server 2 may execute all or a part of the role (various processes and the like) of the game machine 3 in the above-described embodiment. That is, the game system of the present invention may be configured such that the center server 2 and the game machine 3 cooperate as appropriate to realize the functions of the game machine 3 and the center server 2 of the present embodiment. On the other hand, the center server 2 may be omitted. In this case, one game machine 3 may function as the game system of the present invention. Alternatively, conversely, the center server 2 alone may function as the game system of the present invention.

  Various aspects of the present invention derived from each of the above-described embodiments and modified examples will be described below. In the following description, corresponding members illustrated in the accompanying drawings are added in parentheses to facilitate understanding of each aspect of the present invention, but the present invention is limited to the illustrated embodiment. Not something.

  A game system according to the present invention provides a game system in which a level value for defining a parameter used for progress increases in accordance with an amount of experience value (EV) provided based on a play situation ( 1) In the case where the experience value is given, whether or not another management condition for managing the experience value as a value acquisition amount (RV) different from the experience value acquisition amount is satisfied. A condition discriminating means (34) for discriminating between the play amount and the amount of experience value if the separate management condition is not satisfied, and the amount of another value if the separate management condition is satisfied; Experience value providing means (34) for increasing the experience value based on the situation.

  According to the present invention, when another management condition is satisfied, the amount of acquisition of another value increases instead of the amount of acquisition of experience value. In other words, the experience value based on the play situation is given as another value and managed. For this reason, it is possible to manage the gain of the experience value as the gain of the value different from the experience value by using the different management condition. As a result, it is possible to give different values or different uses to the amount of acquisition of the experience value and the amount of acquisition of another value. As a result, the value of the experience value can be given a variety, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  Various conditions, such as user selection, play status, or game settings, may be appropriately adopted as the separate management conditions, for example, according to the use of another value. For example, the management destination of the experience value may be changed according to the designation of the user, or the experience may be changed according to an appropriate play situation such as when a predetermined event is achieved or when the level value reaches the upper limit value. The management destination of the value may be changed. Alternatively, the management destination of the experience value may be changed according to an appropriate game setting such as an event period set by the game provider. Specifically, for example, in one aspect of the game system of the present invention, when a level upper limit is set as a limit of an increase in the level value, the condition determining means may set the level upper limit to the level upper limit. Whether the value has reached or not is used as the separate management condition, and if the separate management condition is satisfied while the level value has reached the level upper limit value, the level value has reached the level upper limit value. If the separate management condition is not satisfied when there is no such condition, each of them may be determined. In this case, the management destination of the experience value can be changed before and after the level value reaches the upper limit value. Thereby, different values (or uses) can be given before and after the level value reaches the upper limit value.

  The separate management condition may be fixed or variable. In other words, once the different management condition is satisfied, the different management condition may always be satisfied, or even after the different management condition is satisfied, the situation where the different management condition is not satisfied may be allowed. Good. For example, when the separate management condition is satisfied when the level value has reached the upper limit value, such an upper limit value is determined by the user's selection, the play status, or the game setting (for example, a setting change of the upper limit by the provider, etc.). ) May be changed according to appropriate conditions such as In this case, even if the different management condition is satisfied before the upper limit value is changed, the different management condition may not be satisfied with the change. Then, before and after such a change, the management destination of the experience value may be switched between the acquisition amount of the experience value and the acquisition amount of another value. Specifically, for example, in one aspect of the present invention in which a level upper limit is used as another management condition, the game is configured such that the level upper limit is changed according to a predetermined condition, The providing means resumes providing the experience amount acquisition amount based on the play situation when the different management condition is not satisfied again after the different management condition is satisfied with the change of the level upper limit value. On the other hand, when the different management condition is satisfied again after the different management condition is no longer satisfied, the provision of the another value acquisition amount based on the play situation may be restarted.

  Other value gains may be presented as appropriate. Alternatively, another value gain may not be presented to the user (eg, may be managed only in the game for various uses). For example, as one mode of the game system of the present invention, the game system is connected to a display device (37) that displays a game screen (40, 50F) including an experience value display unit (EG) that displays the amount of experience value acquired, When the game is provided through a game screen, a value presenting means (33) for presenting a value amount display unit (RG) for displaying the amount of acquisition of another value on the game screen separately from the experience value display unit. ) May be adopted.

  When another amount of acquired value is presented to the user, the acquired amount of another value may be presented to the user unconditionally, or it may be determined whether presentation is possible according to a predetermined condition. Further, as such predetermined conditions, appropriate conditions such as user selection, play status, game settings, and the like may be adopted. Specifically, the presentation of the acquired amount of another value may be started, for example, after the acquired amount of another value is given (a type of play situation). For this reason, as one aspect of the present invention including the value amount presenting means, the value amount presenting means uses a display condition for determining whether or not the display of the another value acquisition amount is possible, and the display condition is satisfied. When the display condition is not satisfied, the acquired amount of the different value is displayed via the value amount display unit. The display may be omitted.

  In the case where another value acquisition amount is presented to the user through the value amount display unit, the display mode of another value acquisition amount may be constant or may be appropriately changed. For example, the gain of another value may always be displayed so as to be more prominent (conspicuous) than the gain of the experience value, or vice versa. Alternatively, the display mode of the amount of acquisition of another value may be changed according to appropriate conditions. In that case, such a condition may or may not be related to whether another management condition is satisfied. Specifically, for example, in a mode in which the acquired amount of another value is displayed via the value amount display unit, the value amount presenting means changes the display mode according to whether the different management condition is satisfied. The amount of acquisition of the another value may be displayed via the value amount display unit so as to change.

  The amount of gain of another value may be used as appropriate value for various purposes. For example, as one mode of the game system of the present invention, a mode may be adopted that includes a privilege granting unit (34) that grants a privilege when the amount of acquisition of the another value reaches a predetermined amount. In this case, the amount of acquisition of another value can be used for giving a privilege. Thereby, for example, when another management condition is satisfied at the level upper limit value, the amount of experience value obtained after such a level upper limit value can be more effectively used than when it is not counted and wasted. it can.

  Various benefits may be employed as benefits corresponding to the predetermined amount of experience value. For example, as such a privilege, a consumption-type privilege such as an item consumed (disappearing) upon use or a recovery of a consumption-type value (a value in which the remaining amount decreases in connection with the progress of the game) is adopted. May be done. Alternatively, a non-consumable privilege such as an increase in the upper limit of a parameter or an item that is not consumed, such as equipment, may be adopted as such a privilege. Similarly, when a privilege (level-up privilege) is granted with an increase in the level value, such a level-up privilege may be related to a privilege corresponding to a predetermined amount of experience value, or may be irrelevant. You may. Specifically, the privilege corresponding to the predetermined amount of experience value may be, for example, at least a part of a level-up privilege or a privilege unrelated thereto. For this reason, for example, in one aspect of the game system of the present invention, when the privilege for increasing the level is given along with the rise of the level value in the game, the privilege granting means includes the privilege for raising the level as the privilege. At least a part of the benefits may be provided.

  Further, when the same privilege as the level-up privilege is used as the privilege corresponding to the predetermined amount of experience value, the similar privilege may be all of the level-up privilege as described above, or may be a part of the same. There may be. For example, in a case where both a consumption-type privilege and a non-consumption-type privilege are given as the level-up privilege, only one of the privileges corresponding to the predetermined amount of experience value may be provided. , Or both. Alternatively, the privilege corresponding to the predetermined amount of experience value may include a privilege other than such a level-up privilege. Specifically, in an aspect in which at least a part of a level-up privilege is used as a privilege corresponding to a predetermined amount of experience value, the privilege granting means includes a consumption-type privilege consumed in connection with the progress of the game. And a non-consumable privilege that is not consumed in connection with the progress of the game, and the level-raising privilege includes the consumable-type privilege and the non-consumable-type privilege. Only the privilege may be used as a part of the level increasing privilege, and the consumption privilege may be provided. Further, in this aspect, the game includes a value for progress, which is consumed for giving a predetermined progress and gradually recovers as time passes, and the value for progress is recovered. When the recovery effect to be used is used as the consumption-type privilege, the recovery effect may be given as the privilege.

  On the other hand, the computer program of the present invention is configured to cause the computer (31) to function as each unit of the above-mentioned game system.

  In addition, the control method of the present invention provides a game that provides a game in which a level value for defining a parameter used for progression increases according to an amount of experience value (EV) provided based on a play situation. When the experience value is provided to the computer (31) incorporated in the system (1), another management for managing the experience value as a value acquisition amount (RV) different from the experience value acquisition amount. A condition determination procedure for determining whether or not the condition is satisfied, and the acquisition amount of the experience value when the another management condition is not satisfied, and the acquisition amount of the another value when the another management condition is satisfied. And an experience value providing procedure for increasing the experience value based on the play situation. The game system of the present invention can be realized by executing the computer program or the control method of the present invention.
