<About the game according to this embodiment>
The communication system shown in FIG. 1 (hereinafter referred to as an information processing system S) is a communication system including an information processing device (hereinafter referred to as a server 10) according to an embodiment of the present invention, and is a player P (first). A game is provided to a player P1 and a second player P2; the same applies hereinafter).

The game is content in which the player P operates and plays the user terminal 12 while viewing the game screen on the game play terminal (user terminal 12), and is provided by using the information processing system S in the present embodiment. It is an online game to be played. Here, the online game includes, for example, a social game that can be used only with a Web browser and an account of an SNS (Social Networking Service).

Player P plays a constituent unit of the game called a quest in the game. The quest is played for the purpose of clearing (achieving the achievement condition), and a plurality of quests are set in this embodiment, and the content (for example, the difficulty level and the enemy character that appears) changes for each quest. The quests also include quests that are held all the time, quests that are held on a preset schedule for each day of the week or time, and quests that have special conditions for playing. Player P specifies a quest to play from among these plurality of quests. Further, in the present embodiment, when playing a quest, the player P can select a quest that can be played in a situation advantageous to the player P from a plurality of quests. Details regarding the designation and selection of quests will be described later.

In addition, the player P can obtain and possess an object in the game and use the possessed object. The "object" is a game medium such as characters and items that appear in the game. Examples of the "character" include organisms such as humans, animals and plants, machines such as vehicles and robots, objects other than machines, fictitious characters such as monsters, and other characters similar thereto. An "item" is a material that is used by player P in the game to support or interfere with player P, and the item can be used as currency in the game and exchanged for other items or characters. Items (in-game currency) are included.

The object possessed by the player P (possessed object) is the target of use by the player P. The use of possessed objects means playing quests using possessed objects, and consuming other possessed objects to improve the parameters of one possessed object, such as enhancements and evolutions described below. be.

The character as a possessed object (possessed character) is used by the player P when playing the quest. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, on the quest play screen G1 displayed on the user terminal 12 operated by the player P during game play, the player P edits the deck using his / her own character and sets the objects in the deck. Operate and play each quest, and in detail, defeat the enemy characters that appear in each quest. The "deck" is a character group (group) composed of a predetermined number (three in the case shown in FIG. 2) of characters possessed by the player P. In addition, the player P can possess a plurality of possessed characters of the same type, and in that case, when editing the deck to play the quest, the possessed characters of the same type can be selected.

Player P can get a reward by clearing the quest he has played. The reward is an object that can be used by the player P in the game, and corresponds to, for example, a character and an item. Characters given as rewards include, with a certain probability, characters corresponding to the cleared quest, for example, enemy characters appearing in the quest (more specifically, boss characters appearing at the end of the quest). In addition, the items given as rewards include in-game currency, and the in-game currency includes in-game currency necessary for carrying out a predetermined event in the game, and the in-game currency is used. The events that can be carried out include a lottery event in which characters and the like can be obtained.

In addition, parameters indicating abilities and attributes such as level, skill value, power (physical strength), and rack value are set for the possessed character. These parameters increase or decrease according to the progress of the game of the player P, and can be changed by, for example, strengthening. The enhancement is an in-game effect that increases the parameters of one possessed character (hereinafter referred to as "base character") by synthesizing a plurality of possessed characters, and is usually carried out based on the instruction of the player P. By strengthening, the parameters of the base character increase according to the parameters of other possessed characters (hereinafter, material characters) synthesized with the base character.

In the present embodiment, the characters that can be synthesized for enhancement are characters associated with each other, for example, a base character and a character of the same type as the base character. Of the plurality of possessed characters used for strengthening, the material character synthesized with the base character loses the right to use after the strengthening is performed. The usage authority is the authority to use the possessed character in the game, and only the possessed character with the usage authority can be used for quest play (that is, added to the deck), and as a material character at the time of strengthening. Can be used.

In addition, some possessed characters change to different types of characters due to effects such as evolution. The parameters of the character after the change, that is, the character derived from the possessed character before the change (hereinafter referred to as "derivative character"), change the parameters from the time before the change, and the appearance also changes from the appearance before the change. The change of the possessed character to the derived character (that is, the effect such as evolution) is usually carried out based on the instruction of the player P, and the derived character is newly added as the possessed character of the player P. When strengthening using a derived character as a base character, a character of the same type as the derived character or a character before the change of the derived character is used as a material character.

In addition, among the above parameters, the higher the rack value of the possessed character, the easier it is to benefit in the game. Specifically, as described above, a reward is given to the player P who has cleared the quest, but the number of rewards given (grant amount) is the number of possessed characters that make up the deck used to clear the quest. It is determined according to the rack value and is usually a specified number (for example, 1 piece), but as the rack value becomes higher, it becomes easier to obtain a reward for a number larger than the specified value (for example, 2 pieces). Further, the higher the rack value, the easier it may be to obtain a special reward in addition to the normal reward. In this embodiment, when the rack value reaches the upper limit value, a reward more than twice the specified value can be obtained.

The number of rewards may depend on factors other than the rack value of the possessed characters that make up the deck. For example, whether or not items that increase the number of rewards are used, and the speed at which the quest is cleared (necessary for clearing the quest). The number of rewards may be determined according to the required time) and whether or not the quest is cleared for the first time. Even if the quest is the same, even if the number of normal rewards is changed depending on whether one player P plays alone and clears it, or if multiple players P described later jointly play and clear it. good.

The game of the present embodiment is a joint play compatible game (so-called multiplayer game) in which a plurality of players P can operate each user terminal 12 to jointly play. That is, the player P can not only play alone (solo play) but also play a common quest at the same time with another player P (hereinafter referred to as joint play). In this joint play, a player P (hereinafter referred to as a host) who hosts a joint play for a specific quest and recruits friends, and a player P (hereinafter referred to as a guest) who applies for the recruitment and participates in the joint play. ), A joint relationship is formed, and the progress of the play is synchronized between the players who perform the joint play.

The joint play is performed through the communication function of the user terminal 12 of each player P. Specifically, when a certain player P applies for participation in the joint play recruited by the host and the host approves the application, the certain player P acts as a guest for joint play with the host. A communication path is established. The qualifications for applying for joint play are not particularly limited and can be set arbitrarily. For example, it may be possible to apply for the recruitment of a player P who is within a predetermined distance from the player P who makes an application, or another player P who has a friendship with a certain player P and is a player. It may be possible that friends who have mutually approved each other can make an application.

After that, transmission / reception of various data required for joint play is carried out according to a known communication method. The data at this time may be a client-server method via the server 10 or a P2P (peer-to-peer) method that does not go through the server 10. Further, the style of joint play is classified into a fully synchronous type and an asynchronous type, and any style may be adopted. The fully synchronous type includes a key input synchronous method and a command input method, and the asynchronous type includes a server centralized processing type and a client distributed processing.

The joint play compatible game includes a cooperative play game in which a plurality of players P cooperate with each other and a competitive game in which the players P play against each other, but any type may be used. Further, the upper limit of the number of players P (maximum number of players) in one joint play is not particularly limited and may be set to an arbitrary number, but for example, it is preferable to set it to a maximum of about four players.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9, when the player P specifies and selects a quest, the transition of the screen displayed on the user terminal 12 will be described. 3 to 9 are examples of screens displayed on the user terminal 12 operated by the player P during game play. In the following description, the first player P1 and the second player P2 will be introduced as the player P.

Here, the "selection" means that the player P arbitrarily selects one or a predetermined number of quests from a plurality of quests, and includes a first selection and a second selection. The "first selection" is to select a first quest that produces an effect that is advantageous to at least the first player P1 when the player P (first player P1) plays the quest. The "second selection" means that the player P (second player P2) makes a different selection from the first selection of the first player. That is, in the second selection, the remaining quests (second quest) other than the first quest first selected by the first player P1 are selected from the plurality of quests. In this embodiment, an example of first selecting one of the two quests will be described, but one or more quests will be first selected from the three or more quests. May be. For example, if one quest is first selected from the three quests, the second selection will be made from the remaining two quests.

Further, the "effect" is, for example, to increase the rack value of the possessed characters constituting the deck (for example, to set the rack value to the upper limit value) when the player P plays the quest. That is, by increasing the rack value of the possessed characters that make up the deck, when the quest is cleared, the player P receives a larger number of rewards than the specified value (for example, when the rack value is set to the upper limit value). You can get a reward that is more than twice the specified value). Further, this effect does not disappear once the player P plays the first quest or the second quest, and is continuously exerted regardless of the number of times the player P plays the first quest or the second quest. .. That is, the effect generated by the selection is not limited to one time, and the effect lasts as long as the selection remains effective. The effect is not limited to the above, and may be any effect as long as it causes an advantageous situation for the player P during quest play. For example, it may improve parameters such as the level, skill value, or power of possessed characters that make up the deck, or grant or lend advantageous items to player P to clear the quest. May be good. In addition, the difficulty level of the quest may be changed (for example, the enemy character is weakened, that is, the parameter of the enemy character is lowered, etc.) to make it easier to clear the quest.

Returning to the explanation of the screen transition, first, when the first player P1 taps the quest play button displayed on the home screen (not shown) on the user terminal 12, the quest designation screen G2 becomes the first player P1. It is displayed on the user terminal 12.
As shown in FIG. 3, on the quest designation screen G2, a plurality of quests (in this embodiment, two quests, quest A and quest B) are displayed, and the outline of each quest (title, holding period, boss character name) is displayed. , Boss character design). In this embodiment, the difficulty level is also set for each quest, and a screen (not shown) for specifying the difficulty level is displayed after the quest is specified.

When the first player P1 specifies a quest to play (including the difficulty level) from a plurality of quests displayed on the quest designation screen G2 and taps or the like, the screen changes and the quest selection screen G3 Is displayed on the user terminal 12 of the first player P1.
The quest selection screen G3 is a dialog box displayed in a part of the area (for example, the center of the screen) on the quest designation screen G2, and as shown in FIG. 4, a quest is selected on the quest selection screen G3. Then, the selection buttons 71 and 72 and the OK button 73 are displayed together with the explanation that the effect (denoted as a bonus in the drawing) is generated. The names (which may be symbols) of the characters associated with Quest A or Quest B are displayed on the selection buttons 71 and 72, respectively. That is, the character α associated with the quest A is displayed on the selection button 71, and the character β associated with the quest B is displayed on the selection button 72. The first player P1 first selects a desired quest to exert an effect from quests A and B, and taps the corresponding selection buttons 71 and 72. For example, when the selection button 71 is tapped or the like, quest A is selected as the first quest, and the remaining quest B can be the second quest.

On the other hand, the OK button 73 is a button to be selected when neither of the quests A and B is selected, and when the first player P1 taps the OK button 73 or the like, the selection of any quest (first selection) is not accepted. The hold is selected, and the quest selection screen G3 closes and returns to the quest designation screen G2. In this way, even before the first quest is first selected, the designated quest can be played by tapping the OK button 73 or the like to select hold (both single play and joint play). Yes). In the pending state, for example, after playing both quests A and B, the quest selection screen G3 is displayed again by respecifying the quest on the quest designation screen G2, so that the first player P1 can make the first selection again at that timing.

When the first selection is completed on the quest selection screen G3, the quest selection completion screen G4 is displayed on the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 via the quest selection confirmation screen (not shown).
The quest selection completion screen G4 is a dialog box displayed in place of the quest selection screen G3 in a part of the area on the quest designation screen G2. A message is displayed about which quest was selected first and the effect it produces. That is, in the present embodiment, it is clearly stated that quest A (character α) is selected and that a bonus is generated when quest A is played (the rack value is maximized). Then, when the first player P1 taps the OK button 74 or the like, the quest selection completion screen G4 is closed, and the play type selection screen G5 is displayed on the user terminal 12 of the first player P1.

As shown in FIG. 6, on the play type selection screen G5, a solo button 75 when playing the designated quest alone and a multi button 76 when playing the designated quest jointly are displayed. The first player P1 starts playing the quest by tapping either the solo button 75 or the multi-button 76 according to the desired play style.

In the present embodiment, when the quest to be played is the first quest related to the first selection (for example, when playing quest A with quest A selected), the first player P1 may play alone. Even in joint play, you can play the quest with the above effects exerted. Further, when the joint play is performed for quest A as a host, the second player P2 who participates in the joint play as a guest can also play quest A in a state where the effect is exhibited. That is, from the standpoint of a guest participating in joint play, the host first player P1 first selects regardless of which quest the player P (second player P2) first selects. If it is the first quest, the effect will be generated for all guests including the second player P2.

On the other hand, when the first player P1 plays quest B which was not first selected as the first quest, or when quest B is played in a pending state without selecting any of quests A and B, quest B You can play, but it will not be effective and you will play it as a normal quest. However, as described above, if the guest participates in the joint play, the effect is generated based on the second selection of the second player P2 as the host. Therefore, for example, even if the first player P1 does not first select quest B as the first quest, the second player P2 who secondly selects quest B performs joint play of quest B as a host. When the first player P1 participates as a guest, the effect occurs. The same effect will occur if you participate as a guest in the hold state.

In the above example, if the designation of the quest to be played is accepted while it is in the hold state, the effect is not exhibited and it is decided to play as a normal quest. However, when a quest to be played is specified, that quest may be automatically set as the first quest as the first selection.

Further, the first player P1 can play both quests A and B even after the first selection, but once the first selection is confirmed, in principle, the quest A, During the period when the event related to B is held, the first selection cannot be changed, and the state of the first selection continues as it is. Therefore, when the quest is specified from the next time onward, it may be identifiable that it is the first selected quest, that is, the quest in which the effect is exhibited.
For example, as shown in FIG. 7, on the quest designation screen G2, the first quest (quest A) is a message indicating that the quest has an effect on the corresponding quest, "A bonus is being generated by selecting a quest!". Display in association with. Further, in this case, even if the quest to be played is specified on the quest designation screen G2, the quest selection screen G3 is not displayed because the first selection has already been completed, and the already set selected quest (first selection). Quest) will be taken over automatically. If the designated quest corresponds to the first quest, the first player P1 may be notified that the effect will occur by displaying a screen having the same contents as the quest selection completion screen G4.

In the above, once the first selection or the second selection is confirmed, in principle, the first selection or the second selection cannot be changed. However, the first selection or the second selection may be changed when a predetermined condition is satisfied. As a predetermined condition, for example, when a parameter such as a rack value reaches an upper limit value by synthesizing a character given as a clear reward for the first quest based on the first selection, or a predetermined condition such as an in-game currency. Includes cases such as when an item is consumed.

Also, even if the quest has a set period (limited-time quest) and the period has expired, it may be stocked in advance for later play or revived later. It may be possible to let them play. In that case, as described above, the first choice or the second choice can be made after stocking or resurrection. At this time, the quest may be stocked or revived regardless of before or after the first selection or the second selection. In addition, "stock" means to make the quest playable at any time after the holding period elapses by using items or the like during the holding period of the quest. In addition, "revival" is to return a quest that can no longer be played to a state in which it can be played again by using an item or the like after the quest holding period has elapsed.

Further, as described above, even if the first player P1 plays the second quest that was not selected first, or even if the quest is played in the pending state, participate in the joint play as a guest. If so, you may be able to play the quest while it is in effect. For that purpose, which quest joint play (who sponsors the joint play) should participate in the effect, or the second player P2 who hosts the joint play selects which quest as the second quest. It is useful for the first player P1 to obtain information about whether or not one of the quests is selected in the first place (unselected, that is, whether or not it is on hold). This information may be provided to the first player P1, or may not be provided intentionally so as not to reduce the difficulty level of the game.

When the above information is provided to the first player P1, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, it is possible to identify that the quest is effective on the joint player recruitment screen G6 which is a list of quests being recruited as guests. It may be displayed in. Further, the first player P1 can confirm the information about his / her friend on the friend information screen G7 as shown in FIG. 9, but on the friend information screen G7, each friend makes a second quest which quest. Whether or not the second selection is selected as, or whether any quest is selected in the first place (unselected, that is, whether or not it is on hold) may be displayed in an identifiable manner.

As described above, in the present embodiment, in a game in which an effect advantageous to the game is given when the player P (first player P1) designates and plays a quest selected by himself / herself (first selected first quest). , Even if you play a quest other than the first quest selected first from multiple quests (the second quest selected second by the second player P2) in order to obtain an effect that is advantageous to the game. By performing joint play with another player P (second player P2), the player P (first player P1) can obtain an effect advantageous to the game. Therefore, both the first player P1 and the second player P2 can be motivated to perform joint play, and the frequency of joint play can be improved.

<Configuration of information processing device and user terminal according to this embodiment>
Next, the configuration of the information processing device and the user terminal 12 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described. The information processing device according to the first embodiment is composed of a computer for distributing game data, strictly speaking, a server computer (hereinafter, referred to as a server 10). The server 10 is an example of a computer, and as shown in FIG. 1, the server 10 is communicably connected to the user terminal 12 via the network 14, and together with the user terminal 12, an information processing system S for a game is constructed. .. The user terminals 12 may communicate with each other via the network 14, or may communicate directly with each other via Bluetooth (registered trademark), Wifi-Direct, or the like without going through the network 14.

In the information processing system S of the present embodiment, the game progresses by the cooperation between the server 10 and the user terminal 12 according to the above configuration. Specifically, a part of the game progress processing is performed on the server 10 side, and a part of the graphic processing and the like is executed on the user terminal 12 side. For example, on the server 10 side, a program including certain rules, logics, and algorithms is executed. On the other hand, on the user terminal 12 side, while synchronizing with the server 10, various quests are generated to advance the game according to the same rules, logics, and algorithms as the program executed on the server 10.

The server 10 may be composed of one computer or a plurality of computers distributed in parallel. Further, the server 10 may be a server computer for ASP (Application Service Provider), SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service) or IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service). In this case, since a series of steps (excluding information input and display) in the information processing flow described later are executed by the above server computer, the user terminal 12 side inputs the information to be delivered to the server computer and inputs the information to be delivered to the server computer. Information delivered from the server computer may be displayed.

As a hardware device, the server 10 has a processor 21, a memory 22, a communication interface 23, and a storage 24 as hardware devices, and these devices are electrically connected via a bus 25. .. Further, the server 10 has an operating system (OS) and a dedicated program for information processing related to the game installed as software. These programs correspond to the "programs" of the present invention. When the processor 21 operates according to the above program, the server 10 functions as the information processing device of the present invention and executes a series of processes related to the progress of the game.

The standard of data communication by the communication interface 23 is not particularly limited, and communication by wireless LAN based on Wi-fi (registered trademark), communication by mobile communication system of 3G to 5G or later generation, or communication by mobile communication system of 3G to 5G or later generation, or Communication based on LTE (Long Term Evolution) and the like can be mentioned.

The storage 24 includes a flash memory, an HDD (Hard Disc Drive), an SSD (Solid State Drive), an FD (Flexible Disc), an MO disk (Magneto-Optical disc), a CD (Compact Disc), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc), and an SD. It may be composed of a card (Secure Digital card), a USB memory (Universal Serial Bus memory), or the like. Further, the storage 24 may be built in the server 10 or may be attached to the server main body in an external form. Further, the storage 24 may be configured by an external computer (for example, a database server) or the like that is communicably connected to the server body. As a technique for recording various data, a distributed ledger technique such as a blockchain may be used for the purpose of avoiding unauthorized data tampering.

The server 10 distributes information necessary for the progress of the game to each player P, and also collects and stores information from each player P. The information stored in the server 10 includes identification information of each player P, information on the play history of the game of each player P, information on the quest selected by each player P, and the like. In addition, the server 10 executes various information processing related to the progress of the game, including a process of imparting an effect advantageous to the game to the player P.

The user terminal 12 is a client terminal operated by the player P to play the game, and is, for example, a personal computer, a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet terminal, a game machine, a television receiver capable of inputting information, a wearable terminal, or the like. Consists of. Note that FIG. 1 shows only two user terminals 12 for convenience of illustration, but of course, there are actually as many user terminals 12 as the number of players P.

The user terminal 12 receives data for progressing a game from the server 10, displays an image (video) indicated by the data on the display of the user terminal 12 or a display such as a TV connected to the user terminal 12, or sounds. Is output from a speaker or the like. That is, in the present embodiment, the user terminal 12 functions as a display unit and an audio output unit. For example, when the player P performs a predetermined operation during game play, a quest designation screen G2 or a quest selection screen G3 or the like is drawn on the user terminal 12, and quest information or the like is displayed on those screens.

Further, the user terminal 12 accepts the operation of the player P performed during the play of the game, and transmits information according to the operation content to the server 10. For example, when the player P specifies a quest to be played in the game, the player P performs a quest designation operation on the user terminal 12. In addition, the user terminal 12 performs a quest selection operation for selecting a first quest in which the effect is exhibited from a plurality of quests and a second quest other than the first quest. In addition to these, operations that instruct the implementation of strengthening possessed characters, operations that instruct the use of possessed items, operations that instruct the sale of possessed characters, operations that request switching of the display screen, and quests for play reservations. The operation and the like for registering the above are performed on the user terminal 12.

<Function of Information Processing Device According to One Embodiment of the Present Invention>
The configuration of the server 10 which is the information processing device according to the present embodiment will be described again from the functional aspect.

For example, the player information includes the first quest related to the first selection or the second quest related to the second selection (selection quest), information about the deck edited to play the quest (identification ID of the selected possessed character), and the player information. Various information about other players P registered as friends (friend identification ID, etc.), possession character identification information, possession item identification information and number of possessions, game progress status such as status, etc. Contains information. Information other than the above, for example, personal information of player P such as contact information, total game play time (game play time), login history (game play date and time and number of game plays), payment history, total charge, etc. Information may be included in the player information.

The character information storage unit 42 determines the appearance of each of the characters that can be obtained by clearing the quest, when the character changes to a derived character due to the name, appearance (image), initial value and upper limit of parameters, evolution, etc. The initial value and upper limit value of the parameter, the acquisition probability, etc. are stored in association with the character identification information.

The item information storage unit 43 stores the item name, the effect at the time of use, the acquisition probability, and the like for each item in the game in association with the item identification information.

The possessed character information storage unit 44 has changed the possessed character of each player P into a derived character due to the current value of the parameter including the rack value, whether the rack value has reached the upper limit, evolution, or the like. Whether or not it is used, and whether or not it has usage authority, etc. are stored in association with the identification ID of the player P and the identification information of the character.

The quest information storage unit 45 describes the characteristics of the quest that can be played in the game (for example, the enemy character that appears and the difficulty level, etc.), the character or item that is given as a reward (normal reward) when the quest is cleared. And the player P who has cleared and the number of players, etc. are stored in association with the identification information of the quest. In addition to the above information, for quests for which a playable period is set, a predetermined time zone defined in advance as a playable time zone is stored for each quest.

(Information presentation department)
The information presentation unit 50 distributes information necessary for the progress of the game to the user terminal 12 of each player P, and as shown in FIG. 10, the first information presentation unit 51 and the second information presentation unit 50. It has a part 52 and.

The first information presentation unit 51 distributes information about the quest to the user terminal 12 of each player P. The information about the quest here includes information such as the quest title, holding period, difficulty level, reward, and appearing enemy characters (including boss characters), as well as being effective when co-playing with player P. Contains information on whether or not the quest is granted.

The second information presentation unit 52 distributes information about the player P to the user terminal 12 of each player P. The information about the player P here includes an identification ID that identifies the player P, information about another player P registered as a friend, possessed characters, possessed items, and information such as the progress of the game such as status. In addition, it includes information on the second quest related to the second selection or the first quest related to the first selection.

(Information Processing Department)
The information processing unit 60 executes information processing necessary for the progress of the game, and as shown in FIG. 10, the game progress unit 61, the screen display unit 62, the effect setting unit 63, the reward giving unit 64, and the information processing unit 60. , Has a parameter changing unit 65.

The game progress unit 61 executes information processing for advancing the game in response to the operation of the player P received by the reception unit 30. For example, the player P is made to specify the quest to be played, the player P is made to select the first quest or the second quest (first selection or the second selection), and the player P is made to play the quest specified by the player P.

The screen display unit 62 displays a screen (game screen) reflecting the result of information processing by the game progress unit 61 on the user terminal 12 of the player P. In the present embodiment, the screen displayed on the user terminal 12 of the player P by the screen display unit 62 includes a quest play screen G1 (FIG. 2), a quest designation screen G2 (FIGS. 3 and 7), and a quest selection screen. G3 (FIG. 4), quest selection completion screen G4 (FIG. 5), play type selection screen G5 (FIG. 6), joint player recruitment screen G6 (FIG. 8), friend information screen G7 (FIG. 9), and the like are included.

The effect setting unit 63 corresponds to the “giving unit” of the present invention, and sets (give) the above effect to the player P who plays the quest. Specifically, when the first player P1 who has made the first selection and selected the first quest plays by designating the first quest, the effect setting unit 63 may play regardless of single play or joint play. An effect is set for the first player P1. On the other hand, when the first player P1 who has made the first selection and selected the first quest plays alone by designating the second quest instead of the first quest, no effect is set for the first player P1. In addition, the first player P1 who has made the first selection and selected the first quest has the second player P2 who has second selected the second quest (the quest that the first player has not selected first) and the second quest. In the case of joint play, that is, when the first player P1 participates as a guest in the joint play (joint play for which the effect is generated) hosted by the second player P2 who selected the second quest as a host, the first player The effect is set for both P1 and the second player P2. At this time, the effect setting unit 63 continuously maintains the effect once set, regardless of the number of times the first player P1 has played the first quest or the second quest.

Further, when the first player P1 plays the quest in the hold state without first selecting the first quest, the effect setting unit 63 does not set the effect for the first player P1. However, even in the hold state, when participating as a guest in the joint play for which the effect is generated, the effect is set for both the first player P1 and the second player P2 as described above.

When the player P clears the quest in the game and satisfies the reward granting condition, the reward granting unit 64 grants the player P a predetermined reward associated with the quest. In the present embodiment, when the effect is set, the reward giving unit 64 receives a reward of a number (amount) larger than the specified value, for example, a reward of twice the number (amount) of the normal reward. Give to. Further, when the effect is set, a special reward may be given to the player P in addition to the normal reward.

The parameter changing unit 65 changes the parameters of the possessed character selected as the base character when the receiving unit 30 receives the strengthening operation for the possessed character from the player P. Then, the parameter changing unit 65 updates the parameter of the base character to the parameter after the increase (after strengthening) among the information about the possessed character of the target player stored in the possessed character information storage unit 54 of the storage unit 40. For parameters that have already reached the upper limit, they will not increase even if they are strengthened, and will be maintained at the upper limit.

The configurations of the server 10 and the user terminal 12 have been described above. In general, the server 10 and the user terminal 12 have various functions other than the above, but here, only the characteristic functions that exert an action and effect in the information processing system S of the present invention will be described. However, illustration and description of other known functions will be omitted.

<Information processing flow according to one embodiment of the present invention>
Next, among the information processing flows by the information processing system S having the above configuration, the flow related to the designation and selection of quests (hereinafter referred to as quest selection flow) will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 and 13. The quest selection flow employs the information processing method of the present invention, in other words, each step in the quest selection flow corresponds to a component of the information processing method of the present invention.

In the following, specific cases will be given to explain the quest selection flow in an easy-to-understand manner. That is, assuming that the first player P1 and the second player P2 exist as the player P, the first player P1 designates one quest to be played from the two quests (quests A and B), and the player P1 specifies one quest to be played. The case where the first quest is selected from the two quests will be described as an example.

In executing the quest selection flow, the first player P1 logs in to the game and starts playing. Further, in the game, the first player P1 edits the deck for playing the quest using the possessed character.

The quest selection flow proceeds along, for example, the flow shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 12, first, the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30), which is a computer, performs a quest designation operation (designation instruction) for designating a quest to be played from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 through the network 14. ) Is accepted (S101). Specifically, the content specified by the quest designation operation on the quest designation screen G2, that is, the data in which the quest to be played is designated among quest A or quest B is acquired.

Next, when the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30) receives a quest selection operation (selection instruction) including a first selection for selecting the first quest from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 through the network 14. (S102: YES), the first quest is set based on the selection instruction (S103). For example, when quest A is first selected on the quest selection screen G3, quest A is set as the first quest. Specifically, the player information stored in the storage unit 40 in association with the first player P1 is read from the storage unit 40, and among the items included in the player information, quest A is input to the first quest. It is stored in the storage unit 40.

Subsequently, the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) compares the quest specified for the first player P1 to play with the first quest set above, and the first player P1 specifies and plays. When it is determined that the quest to be performed is the first quest (S104: YES), the effect is set for the first player P1 (S105). For example, if Quest A is selected as the first quest and that Quest A is played regardless of single play or joint play, the rack value of the possessed characters that make up the deck edited to play Quest A is the upper limit. Set to a value. Specifically, the player information stored in the storage unit 40 in association with the first player P1 is read from the storage unit 40, and among the items included in the player information, the first player P1 plays the quest A. The rack value, which is one of the parameters of the possessed characters constituting the deck edited in, is rewritten to the upper limit value (if the upper limit value is 99, the value of the rack value at that time is rewritten to 99).

On the other hand, when the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30) does not accept the quest selection operation (selection instruction) from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 (S102: NO), that is, the first player on the quest selection screen G3. When the hold is substantially selected without accepting the first selection to select one quest, or the quest that the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) specifies and plays by the first player P1 is the first. When it is determined that it is not one quest (S104: NO), the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) is the play type of the first player P1, that is, the single play or the second player P2. When it is judged whether the play is to participate as a guest in the joint play hosted as a host and it is judged to be the latter joint play (S106: YES), the quest to be the target of the joint play is the second. When it is determined that the player P2 is the second quest selected second to generate the effect (S107: YES), the effect is set for the first player P1 (S105) as described above. For example, when the first player P1 first selects quest A as the first quest and the other quest B is co-played with the second player P2, the host second player P2 has the effect of quest B. When the second quest in which is generated is selected as the second quest, the joint play of the quest B is the joint play for which the effect is generated, and the first player P1 who participates in the joint play of the quest B as a guest Also has an effect.

When the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) determines that the play type of the first player P1 is not a joint play but a single play (S106: NO), or a quest to be a target of the joint play. However, when it is determined that the second player P2 is not the second quest selected second to generate the effect (S107: NO), the effect is not set for the first player P1 and the subsequent processing is performed. move on.

After the above processing, the server 10 (specifically, the game progress unit 61 and the screen display unit 62) causes the first player P1 to start playing the designated quest (S108). Specifically, the quest play screen G1 (FIG. 2) of the designated quest is displayed on the user terminal 12 of the first player P1. Then, the process ends.

In the above process, the quest is selected (S102) after the quest is specified (S101), but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, it may be a flow of designating a quest to be played after selecting a quest to generate an effect.

Further, in the above process, if it is decided that the hold is selected without accepting the first selection for selecting the first quest, the first player P1 is not subjected to the joint play satisfying the predetermined conditions. It was decided not to generate any effect. However, when the designation of the quest to be played from the first player P1 is accepted in the hold state, the selection of the quest (the first selection for selecting the first quest) may be set as accepted.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, first, the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30), which is a computer, specifies a quest to be played from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 through the network 14. Accepts a designated operation (designated instruction) (S201).

Next, when the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30) receives a quest selection operation (selection instruction) including a first selection for selecting the first quest from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 through the network 14. (S202: YES), the first quest is set based on the selection instruction (S203).

Subsequently, the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) compares the quest specified for the first player P1 to play with the first quest set above, and the first player P1 specifies and plays. When it is determined that the quest to be performed is the first quest (S204: YES), the effect is set for the first player P1 (S205).

Further, when the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) determines that the quest specified and played by the first player P1 is not the first quest (S204: NO), the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting) Part 63) determines that the play type of the first player P1 is joint play (S206: YES), and that the quest that is the target of the joint play is the quest that is the target of the effect. If this is the case (S207: YES), the effect is set for the first player P1 (S205) as described above.

When the server 10 (specifically, the effect setting unit 63) determines that the play type of the first player P1 is not a joint play but a single play (S206: NO), or a quest to be a target of the joint play. However, if it is determined that the quest is not the target of the effect (S207: NO), the process proceeds to the subsequent processing without setting the effect for the first player P1.

On the other hand, when the server 10 (specifically, the reception unit 30) does not accept the quest selection operation (selection instruction) from the user terminal 12 of the first player P1 (S202: NO), that is, the first player on the quest selection screen G3. When 1 selection is not accepted and the hold is practically selected, the quest (quest to be played) specified by the quest designation operation is set as the first quest as it is (S208), and the same as above, for the first player P1. To set the effect (S205). For example, if quest A is designated as a quest to play, that quest A is set as the first quest.

After the above processing, the server 10 (specifically, the game progress unit 61 and the screen display unit 62) causes the first player P1 to start playing the designated quest (S209). Specifically, the quest play screen G1 (FIG. 2) of the designated quest is displayed on the user terminal 12 of the first player P1. Then, the process ends.

The quest selection process ends when the series of steps shown in FIG. 12 or 13 is completed. After that, while the player P (first player P1) is playing the game, strictly speaking, when the quest to be played by the first player P1 is specified, the above series of steps is repeatedly executed.
The above is an example of the quest selection process.

It should be noted that this fee may be a pay-as-you-go system, or once paid, it may be effective for the player P for a certain period (for example, one month or one year) (subscription).

<Summary>
The main features of the information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program according to the present embodiment described above are as follows.

[1] The information processing device according to the present embodiment includes a granting unit that gives a player an effect advantageous to the game, a first selection that selects a first quest that exerts an effect from a plurality of quests, and a first selection. It has a second selection that selects a second quest other than the first quest, a reception unit that accepts the designation of the quest to play from the player, and the granting unit is the first player who made the first selection. When playing with one quest specified, the effect is given to the first player, and when the first player specifies the second quest and plays alone, the effect is not given to the first player and the second selection is made. When the second player and the first player jointly play the second quest, the effect is given to the first player.
According to the above information processing device, the player (first player) may play a quest other than the first quest selected first from a plurality of quests in order to obtain an effect advantageous to the game. However, if the second quest, which is the second player selected by the second player, is co-played with the second player, an effect advantageous to the game can be obtained. Therefore, both the first player and the second player can be motivated to play jointly, and the frequency of playing jointly can be improved.

[2] In the above information processing device, the granting unit continuously grants the effect to the player regardless of the number of times the first quest or the second quest is played.
As a result, unlike items that are temporarily given, as long as the selection remains valid, the effect that is advantageous to the game is continuously continued, so that both the first player and the second player can use it. On the other hand, the motivation to play jointly can be further motivated, and the frequency of playing joint play can be further improved.

[3] In the above information processing device, when the reception unit receives the designation of the first quest from the first player in a state where the selection of the first selection and the second selection is not accepted, it is assumed that the first selection is accepted. Set.
As a result, even if the first quest or the second quest is not selected, if the quest to be played is specified, the first quest to which the effect is automatically given is selected, which is convenient for the player. Furthermore, the frequency of playing the quest itself can be improved, and by extension, both the first player and the second player can be further motivated to play jointly. It is possible to further improve the playing frequency of.

[4] In the above information processing device, when the reception unit accepts the designation of the first quest or the second quest while neither the first selection nor the second selection is accepted from the first player, the granting unit receives the designation. , In the designated 1st or 2nd quest, the effect is not given to the 1st player, and the reception unit makes the 1st selection or the 1st after playing the 1st or 2nd quest specified by the 1st player. 2 Display a screen that allows selection.
As a result, each quest can be played once without selecting the first quest, and after confirming the difficulty level of each quest and the suitability (fitness) for one's own play style, etc. You can carefully select the first quest to generate the effect again. Therefore, the convenience of the player can be increased and the play frequency of the quest itself can be improved, and by extension, both the first player and the second player are further motivated to play jointly. It is possible to further improve the playing frequency of joint play.

[5] In the above information processing device, when designating a quest to be jointly played by the first player, information on whether or not the quest is effective when the first player is jointly played. It has a first information providing unit that provides information processing.
This makes it easier for the first player to determine which quest should be specified when performing joint play, so that the joint play is performed for both the first player and the second player. The motivation to try can be further motivated, and the frequency of joint play can be further improved.

[6] In the above information processing apparatus, a second player selected by the second player when the first player and the second player have a predetermined relationship before the first player selects the first selection or the second selection. It has a second information providing unit that provides information that can identify the two selections to the first player.
When the first player and the second player have a predetermined relationship such as a friend relationship, joint play is often performed. However, the first player can confirm the selection status of the second player having the predetermined relationship. Since it becomes easier for the player to determine which quest should be specified when performing joint play, both the first player and the second player are motivated to perform joint play. It can be further aroused, and the frequency of joint play can be further improved.

[7] In the above information processing device, the reception unit can accept a change from the first selection to the second selection by the first player when the object that can be acquired in the first quest is in a predetermined state. ..
As a result, the number of times the first quest is played leads to the object that can be acquired in the first quest being in a predetermined state, so that the frequency of playing the quest itself can be improved, and by extension, the first quest. Both the 1st player and the 2nd player can be further motivated to play jointly, and the frequency of playing jointly can be further improved.

[8] Further, according to the information processing method according to the present embodiment, the computer gives the player an effect advantageous to the game, and the computer selects the first quest in which the effect is exhibited from the plurality of quests. The first player who receives the first choice to be selected, the second choice to select the second quest other than the first quest, and the designation of the quest to be played from the player, and the computer makes the first choice is the first player. When the quest is specified and played, the effect is given to the first player, and when the first player specifies the second quest and is played alone, the effect is not given to the first player and the second selection is made. When the second player and the first player jointly play the second quest, the effect is given to the first player.
According to the above information processing method, the player (first player) may play a quest other than the first quest selected first from a plurality of quests in order to obtain an effect advantageous to the game. However, if the second quest second selected by the second player, which is another player, is jointly played with the second player, an effect advantageous to the game can be obtained. Therefore, both the first player and the second player can be motivated to play jointly, and the frequency of playing jointly can be improved.

[9] Further, according to the program according to the present embodiment, the first selection in which the computer is made to give the player an effect advantageous to the game and the first quest in which the effect is exhibited is selected from a plurality of quests. The player accepts the second selection to select the second quest other than the first quest and the designation of the quest to be played, and the first player who makes the first selection specifies the first quest and plays. In this case, when the effect is given to the first player and the first player specifies the second quest and plays alone, the second player and the first player who have made the second selection without giving the effect to the first player are given. When the player plays the second quest jointly, the first player is given an effect.
According to the above program, even if the player (first player) plays a quest other than the first quest selected from a plurality of quests in order to obtain an effect advantageous to the game. , If the second quest second selected by the second player, which is another player, is jointly played with the second player, an effect advantageous to the game can be obtained. Therefore, both the first player and the second player can be motivated to play jointly, and the frequency of playing jointly can be improved.
