The configuration of the video game processing system 100 is not limited to this, and a single user terminal may be used by a plurality of users, or a configuration may include a plurality of servers.

The server 10 and the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N are each connected to a communication network 30 such as the Internet. Although not shown, the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N are connected to the communication network 30 by performing data communication with a base station managed by a communication operator via a wireless communication line.

By including the server 10 and the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N, the video game processing system 100 realizes various functions for executing various processes according to the user's operation.

The server 10 is managed by the administrator of the video game processing system 100, and has various functions for providing information on various processes to a plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N. In this example, the server 10 is composed of an information processing device such as a WWW server, and includes a storage medium for storing various information. The server 10 has a general configuration for performing various processes as a computer such as a control unit and a communication unit, but the description thereof will be omitted here. Further, in the video game processing system 100, it is preferable that the server 10 manages various information from the viewpoint of reducing the processing load applied to each of the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N. However, the storage unit that stores various information may be provided with a storage area in a state in which the server 10 can access it, and may be configured to have a dedicated storage area outside the server 10, for example.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the server 10A, which is an example of the configuration of the server 10. As shown in FIG. 2, the server 10A includes at least a first granting unit 11, a second granting unit 12, a first selection unit 13, a second selection unit 14, and a providing unit 15.

The first granting unit 11 has a function of granting the first selection right to a user who satisfies the granting condition in each unit period after the start of the event period composed of a plurality of unit periods.

Here, the unit period means a period defined by a video game provider or the like, such as one day (for example, a period from 0:00 to 23:59). Further, the configuration of the event period is not particularly limited, and the event period may be created by a number of unit periods corresponding to the number of days in the event start month.

Further, the granting condition means a condition defined as a condition for granting the first selection right to the user. The configuration of the grant condition is not particularly limited, but a configuration that encourages the user to log in habitually is preferable. There are various examples of grant conditions, such as logging in and clearing a specific quest (for example, subduing a specific character).

Further, the first selection right means a right for the user to use the selection by the first selection unit 13. The configuration for granting the first selection right to the user is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can easily recognize that the first selection right has been granted is preferable. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which an item corresponding to the first selection right is given to the user. The first selection right may be referred to as the first lottery right in the sense that the privilege is determined by lottery.

The second granting unit 12 has a function of granting a second selection right in exchange for a specific number of first selection rights to a user to whom a predetermined number of first selection rights have been granted.

Here, the ratio of the predetermined number to the specific number is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the predetermined number is larger than the specific number is preferable. There are various examples of such a configuration, such as 5 to 1.

Further, the second selection right means a right for the user to use the selection by the second selection unit 14. The configuration for granting the second selection right to the user is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can easily recognize that the second selection right has been granted is preferable. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which an item corresponding to the second selection right is given to the user.

The first selection unit 13 has a function of selecting a privilege from the first privilege group based on the first selection right given to the user.

Here, the first privilege group means a plurality of benefits defined as a privilege group corresponding to the first selection right. The configuration of the first privilege group is not particularly limited, and may be composed of one type of privilege. The content of the privilege is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the privilege is useful to the user. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which a plurality of types of items are defined as a privilege group.

Further, the configuration for selecting the privilege based on the first selection right is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the larger the number of the first selection rights given to the user, the more useful the privilege for the user is selected. Examples of configurations for selecting benefits based on the first choice right include a configuration in which the number of benefits to be selected is determined according to the number of first choice rights owned by the user, or one first choice right. There is a configuration in which one benefit is selected in exchange. There is a configuration in which one privilege is selected from the first privilege group according to a predetermined rule (or randomly).

The second selection unit 14 has a function of selecting a privilege from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group based on the second selection right given to the user.

Here, the configuration for providing a difference between the first privilege group and the second privilege group is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the second privilege group includes a privilege that is considered to be more useful than the first privilege group is preferable. As an example of such a configuration, there is a configuration in which at least one part of the second privilege group includes an item having a rarity of a height not included in the first privilege group.

The providing unit 15 has a function of providing the privilege selected by the first selection function or the second selection function to the user at a predetermined time.

Here, the predetermined time means a time defined as a time when the privilege is provided to the user. The configuration of the predetermined time is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can recognize the time before the privilege is provided is preferable. Examples of such a configuration include a configuration in which the time when the privilege is selected is set as the predetermined time, and a configuration in which the time when the user logs in after the event period has elapsed is set as the predetermined time.

Further, providing the privilege to the user means associating the information corresponding to the privilege with the user. The configuration for providing the privilege to the user is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can recognize the provided privilege is preferable. Examples of such a configuration include the granting of privilege items and the generation of privilege effects.

Further, each of the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N is connected to the communication network 30, and hardware for executing various processes by communicating with the server 10 (for example, a browser screen according to coordinates). It is equipped with a display device that displays the game screen, etc.) and software. It should be noted that each of the plurality of user terminals 20, 201 to 20N may be configured to be able to directly communicate with each other without going through the server 10.

Next, the operation of the video game processing system 100 (system 100) of this example will be described.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of game processing executed by the system 100. In the game processing in this example, processing related to the provision of benefits is performed. Hereinafter, a case where the server 10A and the user terminal 20 (terminal 20) execute game processing will be described as an example.

The game process is started when the user satisfies the login condition in, for example, a video game. Hereinafter, a case where the user who operates the terminal 20 satisfies the login condition will be described as an example.

In the game processing, the server 10A first grants the first selection right to the user who satisfies the granting condition in each unit period after the start of the event period composed of the plurality of unit periods (step S11). In this example, the server 10A determines whether the logged-in user has logged in for the first time in the unit period to which the login time belongs, and grants the first selection right when it is determined that the user has logged in for the first time. Is not given.

When the server 10A grants the first selection right, the server 10A grants the second selection right in exchange for a specific number of the first selection right to the user to which the predetermined number of the first selection right is granted (step S12). In this example, the server 10A grants one second selection right to the user who owns the five first selection rights on condition that the five first selection rights are consumed.

When the server 10A grants the second selection right, the server 10A selects a privilege from the first privilege group based on the first selection right given to the user (step S13). In this example, the server 10A selects the same number of benefits as the number of first selection rights owned by the user from the first privilege group according to a predetermined rule (for example, a rule for realizing randomness).

When the server 10A selects a privilege from the first privilege group, the server 10A selects a privilege from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group based on the second selection right given to the user (step S14). In this example, the server 10A selects the same number of benefits as the number of second selection rights owned by the user from the second privilege group according to a predetermined rule.

When the server 10A selects a privilege from the second privilege group, the server 10A provides the selected privilege to the user at a predetermined time (step S15), and ends the process here. In this example, the server 10A provides the privilege selected based on the first selection right and the privilege selected based on the second selection right to the user at the timing when the user logs in after the lapse of the event period.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation on the server 10A side in the game processing. Here, the operation of the server 10A in the system 100 will be described again.

In the game processing, the server 10A first grants the first selection right (step S101), grants the second selection right (step S102), selects a privilege from the first privilege group (step 103), and second. A privilege is selected from the privilege group (step 104), and the selected privilege is provided to the user (step 105).

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation on the terminal 20 side when the terminal 20 executes the game processing. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal 20 executes the game processing by itself will be described as an example. Since the configuration of the terminal 20 has the same functions as the configuration of the server 10 except that various information is received from the server 10, the description thereof will be omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding duplicate explanations.

In the game processing, the terminal 20 first grants the first selection right (step S201), grants the second selection right (step S202), selects a privilege from the first privilege group (step 203), and second. A privilege is selected from the privilege group (step 204), and the selected privilege is provided to the user (step 205). In this example, the terminal 20 acquires the information used in each step by communicating with the server 10A. The terminal 20 may be configured to specify the information used in each step by referring to the storage unit provided by the terminal 20.

As described above, as one aspect of the first embodiment, the server 10A having a function of controlling the progress of the video game according to the user operation includes the first granting unit 11 and the second granting unit 12. , The first selection unit 13, the second selection unit 14, and the provision unit 15 are provided. Therefore, after the start of the event period composed of a plurality of unit periods, the user who satisfies the grant condition in each unit period. The first choice right is given to the user, and the second choice right is given to the user to which the predetermined number of the first choice right is given in exchange for the specific number of the first choice right, and the first choice right given to the user. Select a privilege from the first privilege group based on, and select a privilege from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group based on the second selection right given to the user, and select the first selection unit 13 or The privilege selected by the second selection unit 14 can be provided to the user at a predetermined time, and the user can be more effectively encouraged to log in habitually.

That is, since the user can recognize that a plurality of related types of selection rights are granted for each of the plurality of unit periods constituting the event period, the case where one type of selection right is the motive for satisfying the grant conditions in each unit period. Since it can be given to the user more effectively, it is possible to encourage the user to log in habitually more effectively.

Here, the configuration for determining the predetermined time when the event period has elapsed is not particularly limited, and may be configured to determine the predetermined time regardless of whether or not each user is logged in at the same time as the event period elapses. After the event period has elapsed, it may be configured to determine the predetermined time when each user logs in.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example of a game process executed by the system 100. Hereinafter, the operations of the server 10B and the terminal 20 will be described as an example. The flowcharts showing the operations of the server 10B and the terminal 20 are omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding duplicate explanations.

When the server 10B selects a privilege from the second privilege group in the game processing, the server 10B determines that it is a predetermined time when the event period elapses, and gives the user the privilege selected by the first selection unit 13 or the second selection unit 14. Provided (step S2-11). In this example, when the server 10B completes the processing corresponding to the event (for example, the statistics of the first selection right and the second selection right acquired by each user who participated in the event) after the event period has elapsed, the event period Is considered to have passed and it is determined that the time has passed, and the privilege is provided to each user by updating each user information. That is, in this example, even if the privilege is selected during the event period, the server 10B does not provide the privilege to the user until the event period elapses. The server 10B may be configured to notify the user that the privilege has been selected or the selected privilege.

As described above, as one aspect of the second embodiment, the server 10B provides the first granting unit 11, the second granting unit 12, the first selection unit 13, and the second selection unit 14. Since the configuration is provided with the unit 15B, when the event period elapses, it is determined that it is a predetermined time, the privilege selected by the first selection unit 13 or the second selection unit 14 is provided to the user, and the user logs in after the event period elapses. The user can be motivated to do so.

Here, the configuration for granting the second selection right to the user in preference to other processing is not particularly limited, but at least with normal processing (that is, when the number of first selection rights does not reach a predetermined number). Preferably have different flows. In the example of such a configuration, when the number of possessions of the user reaches a predetermined number when the first selection right is granted, a process for displaying an image showing the number of possessions of the first selection right is performed. However, when the number of possessions of the user reaches a predetermined number, there is a configuration in which a process of granting the second selection right to the user is performed.

FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing an example of a game process executed by the system 100. Hereinafter, the operations of the server 10F and the terminal 20 will be described as an example. The flowcharts showing the operations of the server 10F and the terminal 20 are omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding duplicate explanations.

When the server 10F grants the first selection right, when the number of the first selection rights possessed by the user reaches a predetermined number, the server 10F grants the second selection right to the user in preference to other processes (step S6-. 11). In this example, when the number of possession of the first selection right reaches a predetermined number, the server 10F grants the second selection right to the user without asking the user to select whether or not the second selection right is necessary.

As described above, as one aspect of the sixth embodiment, the server 10F provides the first granting unit 11, the second granting unit 12F, the first selection unit 13, and the second selection unit 14. Since the configuration includes the unit 15, when the number of the first selection rights possessed by the user reaches a predetermined number, the second selection right is given to the user in preference to other processing, and the second selection right is assigned. It will be possible to convey the usefulness to the user more, and it will be possible to encourage the user to log in habitually in order to collect a predetermined number of first choice rights.

[7th Embodiment]
FIG. 16 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a video game processing server 10Z (server 10Z) which is an example of the video game processing server 10 in the system 100 (see FIG. 1). In this example, the server 10Z includes at least a first granting unit 11Z, a second granting unit 12Z, a first selection unit 13Z, a second selection unit 14Z, and a providing unit 15Z. Below, regarding the above-mentioned wording, one day as a unit period, clearing a specific quest once a day as a grant condition, a treasure chest as a first choice right, a five-star fixed treasure chest as a second choice right, as a privilege Each item (for example, weapons and armor) will be described as an example.

The first granting unit 11Z has a function of granting a treasure chest to a user who has cleared a specific quest once a day after the start of an event period composed of a plurality of days.

Here, the treasure chest means the right of the user to use the selection by the first selection unit 13Z. That is, in this example, the treasure chest corresponds to the right to draw a so-called gacha.

In addition, a specific quest means a special quest that is limited to once a day and you can get a treasure chest to draw a gacha by clearing the quest. The composition of the quest is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the content corresponds to the event. An example of such a configuration includes a battle with an enemy character representing the event.

The second granting unit 12Z has a function of granting a 5 star fixed treasure chest to a user who has been granted a predetermined number of treasure chests in exchange for a specific number of treasure chests.

Here, the ratio of the predetermined number to the specific number is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the predetermined number is larger than the specific number is preferable. There are various examples of such a configuration, such as 5 to 1.

Further, the star 5 fixed treasure box means the right of the user to use the selection by the second selection unit 14Z. That is, in this example, the 5-star fixed treasure chest corresponds to the right to draw a so-called gacha.

The first selection unit 13Z has a function of selecting an item from the first privilege group based on the treasure box given to the user.

Here, the first privilege group means a plurality of items defined as an item group corresponding to the treasure chest. Further, the configuration for selecting an item based on the treasure chest is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the larger the number of treasure chests given to the user, the more useful the item is selected for the user. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which one item is randomly selected from the first privilege group in exchange for one treasure chest.

The second selection unit 14Z has a function of selecting an item from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group based on the star 5 fixed treasure box given to the user.

Here, the configuration for providing a difference between the first privilege group and the second privilege group is not particularly limited, but items that are considered to be more useful to select from the second privilege group than to select from the first privilege group are available. A configuration that is more likely to be selected is preferred. In an example of such a configuration, the first privilege group includes items having a rarity of 1 to 5, while the second privilege group includes only items having a rarity of 5 or more.

The providing unit 15 has a function of providing the item selected by the first selection unit 13Z and the second selection unit 14Z to the user at a predetermined time.

Here, the predetermined time means a time defined as a time when the item is provided to the user. The configuration of the predetermined time is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can recognize the time before the item is provided is preferable. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which items are selected and provided at the same time on a predetermined date. In this case, it is preferable that the predetermined date is after the lapse of the event period. An example of such a configuration is the day after the last day of the event.

The providing unit 15 has a function of providing the item selected by the first selection unit 13Z and the second selection unit 14Z to the user at a predetermined time.

Here, the predetermined time means a time defined as a time when the item is provided to the user. The configuration of the predetermined time is not particularly limited, but a configuration in which the user can recognize the time before the item is provided is preferable. An example of such a configuration is a configuration in which items are selected and provided at the same time on a predetermined date. In this case, it is preferable that the predetermined date is after the lapse of the event period. An example of such a configuration is the day after the last day of the event.

FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of a storage state of information stored in a storage unit (not shown) included in the server. As shown in FIG. 17, the storage unit stores the user name, the number of the first selection right (treasure box in this example), and the number of the second selection right (star 5 fixed treasure box in this example) in association with each other. do.

In this example, when the number of the first selection rights reaches a predetermined number, the number of the first selection rights is automatically changed to the second selection right, so that the number of the first selection rights owned by each user is limited to the predetermined number. However, when the user determines whether or not to change the first selection right to the second selection right, the number of the first selection rights is the upper limit number given at the event.

FIG. 18 is a flowchart showing an example of game processing executed by the system 100Z including the server 10Z. In the game processing in this example, processing related to the provision of the item is performed. Hereinafter, each process will be described. The order of each process is random as long as there is no inconsistency in the process contents.

The game process is started, for example, when the user logs in.

The system 100Z sets a weapon for the character according to the progress of the video game (step S301). In this example, the system 100Z equips each of the two characters operated in the battle with a weapon specified by the user. The equipped weapon is displayed as it is held by the character.

In the game process, the system 100Z first grants a treasure chest to a user who has cleared a specific quest by a logged-in user (step S301). The number of treasure chests given to the user may be different for each quest.

When the treasure chest is given, the system 100Z gives the user who has been given the five treasure chests a five-star fixed treasure chest in exchange for the five treasure chests (step S302). The timing of granting the 5 star fixed treasure chest is not particularly limited, and it may be the timing when the fifth treasure chest is granted, or it may be after the event period has elapsed.

When the system 100Z grants the 5 star confirmed treasure chest, it selects an item from the first privilege group based on the treasure chest given to the user (step S303), and based on the 5 star confirmed treasure chest given to the user, the first item is selected. An item is selected from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group (step S304). The timing of selecting an item is not particularly limited, and it may be the timing when the user logs in after the lapse of the event period, or the timing when the user inputs an operation desired to select the item.

When the system 100Z selects an item, the system 100Z provides the selected item to the user at a predetermined time (step S305), and ends the process here. The timing of providing the item selected based on the treasure chest, the item selected based on the 5 star confirmed treasure chest, and the user is not particularly limited, and the configuration may be such that the item is provided immediately after the selection, or is temporarily determined. It may be stored in a storage area (for example, a so-called present box) to request a user operation.

FIG. 19 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of a game screen. As shown in FIG. 19, on the game screen, information regarding the granting of the treasure chest and the star 5 fixed treasure chest at the event is displayed in a form recognizable by the user. The configuration for displaying information about the treasure chest and the like is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the configuration is such that the relationship between the treasure chest and the star 5 fixed treasure chest can be visually recognized.

The first selection right (for example, treasure chest) is given to the user who satisfies the granting condition (for example, login or clearing of a specific quest after login), and a specific number is given to the user who is given a predetermined number of first selection rights. 2nd choice is granted in exchange for the 1st choice (for example, 5 treasure chests are changed to 5 star fixed treasure chests), and benefits are given from the 1st privilege group based on the 1st choice given to the user. Select a privilege from a second privilege group different from the first privilege group based on the second selection right given to the user, and provide the selected privilege to the user at a predetermined time (for example, after the event period). (Lottery according to the number of treasure chests and 5 star confirmed treasure chests), it will be possible to more effectively encourage users to log in habitually.

Although not particularly mentioned in the above-described example of the seventh embodiment, the server 10Z refers to the storage means in which the unit period and the number of the first selection rights are stored in association with each other, and the grant condition is given. May be configured to give the user a number of first choices corresponding to the unit period to which the user satisfies. That is, for example, the number of treasure chests given to the user who cleared the specific quest may be changed on each day in one event. With such a configuration, the diversity of events can be improved.

Although not particularly mentioned in the example of the seventh embodiment described above, when the server 10Z refers to the storage means in which the unit period and the grant condition are stored in association with each other and the user logs in. The configuration may be such that the grant condition corresponding to the unit period to which the user belongs is presented to the user. That is, for example, the content of the specific quest may be changed depending on the day. With such a configuration, the diversity of events can be improved.

Although not particularly mentioned in the example of the seventh embodiment described above, the server 10Z displays the privilege selection screen before or during the event period, accepts the privilege selection by the user, and selects the accepted privilege selection. It may be configured to aggregate and determine the contents of the first privilege group or the second privilege group based on the aggregation result. That is, for example, the contents of at least one of the gacha corresponding to the treasure chest and the gacha corresponding to the 5 star fixed treasure chest may be determined in the questionnaire during the event. With such a configuration, it becomes possible to prompt the user to log in for the questionnaire and the login for acquiring the privilege.
