The privilege providing system 100 according to the present embodiment is characterized by a process of providing a privilege such as an item that can be used in a virtual space such as an electronic game or a privilege such as a coupon that can be used in the real world by lottery. For example, by communicating with the server 102 using the communication terminal 104, a privilege may be provided in an electronic game provided to the communication terminal 104. FIG. The benefits given are not particularly limited. For example, the occurrence of a predetermined enemy character (raid boss) in an electronic game, the occurrence of a predetermined event, the discharge of item drops at a predetermined game stage, etc. are given by lottery. can be anything. At this time, the content of the electronic game is not particularly limited, and may be a competitive electronic game in which a plurality of users participate, or an electronic game played by a single user. Further, the service provided to communication terminal 104 by using communication terminal 104 to communicate with server 102 need not be an electronic game.

The privilege providing process according to the present embodiment will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The server 102 executes the privilege providing program, and the communication terminal 104 executes the terminal program, so that the privilege providing process is realized by performing the processes in the following steps. In this embodiment, an example in which a user accesses server 102 using communication terminal 104 and plays an electronic game provided by server 102 will be described.

At step S10, the lottery right is provided to the user. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as a lottery right providing means. The server 102 indicates, via the communication units 18 and 28, that the communication terminal 104 used by the user who is communicating with the server 102 and playing the electronic game can receive the lottery right. Send information. The information indicating that the lottery right can be received can be a lottery right ID that identifies the lottery right. For example, the server 102 may provide the lottery right when a predetermined condition is satisfied in the electronic game. The predetermined condition is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, logging in to the electronic game, clearing a predetermined stage in the electronic game, charging in the electronic game, or the like.

In step S12, a lottery right acquisition process is performed. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as a lottery right acquiring means. When the communication terminal 104 receives the information indicating the provision of the lottery right from the communication terminal 104 in step S10, the communication terminal 104 performs a process of acquiring the lottery right according to the user's operation using the input unit 24 . Specifically, when the user performs an operation to acquire the lottery right, the processing unit 20 of the communication terminal 104 associates the lottery right ID identifying the acquired lottery right with the acquired time, as shown in FIG. is stored in the storage unit 22 as a lottery right database.

In step S14, the change amount of the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired is obtained. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as change amount acquisition means. The processing unit 20 of the communication terminal 104 acquires the change amount of the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired in step S12.

Here, it is preferable that the change amount of the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired is a parameter that is not used in the electronic game. The parameters that are not used in the electronic game are, for example, the elapsed time from when the lottery right was acquired, the amount of change in the position of the communication terminal 104 after the lottery right was acquired (movement distance, the location where the communication terminal 104 was used, , etc.), the amount of change in outside temperature since the lottery right was acquired, the user's exercise amount (cumulative number of steps, cumulative Mets amount, etc.) since the lottery right was acquired, when the lottery right was acquired The amount of change in the user's biological information from the time (change in pulse rate, cumulative value of pulse rate, etc.), the amount of change in the operation of the communication terminal 104 from when the lottery right was acquired (cumulative number of times the communication terminal 104 was used, communication cumulative number of times the terminal 104 has been shaken, etc.).

Also, the amount of change in the element may be the amount of change related to the power supply of the communication terminal 104 (power consumption, number of charging times, number of times the remaining battery charge reaches a predetermined level during a predetermined period, etc.). For example, if the battery has been fully charged three times or more in three days, if the remaining battery charge has not reached 20% even once in five days, if the power has not been turned off in five days, and so on.

Also, the amount of change in the element may be the amount of change (radio field intensity, amount of data communication, etc.) related to radio or communication of the communication terminal 104 . For example, if the amount of data communication in a communication means other than WiFi is less than a predetermined communication capacity in a predetermined week, or if the number of times the game application is used in a communication means other than WiFi is equal to or greater than a predetermined number of times within a predetermined period, etc. good too.

Also, the amount of change in the element may be the amount of change related to the usage record of the predetermined function of the communication terminal 104 (the number of applications launched, the number of incoming calls, the number of calls made, the call duration, etc.). For example, if the number of times a predetermined application is launched within a predetermined period is equal to or greater than a predetermined number of times, or if the number of calls received within a predetermined period is equal to or greater than a predetermined number of times, When the number of calls is equal to or greater than a predetermined number of times, the call duration may be equal to or greater than a predetermined time within a predetermined period.

Also, the amount of change in an element may be the number of times a schedule or ToDo is set or the number of times it is achieved. Alternatively, the amount of change that can be acquired by another sensor of the communication terminal 104 may be used. For example, an illuminance sensor may be used to determine the number of times the game application is started in places where the illuminance is above a predetermined level, or the number of times the game application is started during the day when the level of illuminance is above the specified level.

Also, the amount of change in the elements can be obtained by providing the communication terminal 104 with a sensor for measuring each amount. For example, the pattern of obtaining the amount of change may be obtained by another application in the communication terminal 104 . Alternatively, the amount measured by another terminal may be acquired.

Moreover, it is preferable that the change amount of the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired is a parameter used in the electronic game. The parameters used in the electronic game are, for example, the amount of change in the stamina value of the teammate in the electronic game since the lottery right was acquired (e.g., the cumulative increase or decrease of the teammate's hit points), The amount of change in the damage value given to the enemy in the electronic game (cumulative decrease in enemy hit points, etc.), the cumulative number of stages cleared in the electronic game from the time the lottery right was acquired, and the lottery right acquired Cumulative amount of time spent playing electronic games since when the lottery right was acquired, amount of change in items acquired in the electronic game (total number of items acquired, types of items acquired, etc.) since the time the lottery right was acquired Changes in friends who played electronic games (cumulative number of friends who played electronic games, etc.), number of enemies defeated since lottery rights were acquired, use of items used since lottery rights were acquired can be the amount.

For example, the amount of change in the element may be the cumulative amount of action points consumed when the player executes a quest in the game.

If the amount of change in the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired increases or decreases, it may be the maximum amount of change from the time the lottery right is acquired to the time the lottery right is used, or the average amount of change. At this time, it is preferable to acquire the amount of change in the element so that the benefit given to the user by the lottery when using the lottery right is most advantageous to the user.

Further, after the lottery right is acquired, the amount of change in the element from the point in time when the user performs a predetermined operation or process may be used. For example, the change amount of the element that changes after the user performs an operation to suspend the use of the lottery right may be acquired.

The processing unit 20 acquires, for each lottery right, the amount of change in the element from when the lottery right is acquired until it is used in the next step S16, and records it in the lottery right database in association with each lottery right. FIG. 5 shows an example in which the elapsed time from when the lottery right was acquired is registered in the lottery right database as the element change amount.

In step S16, selection processing of the lottery right to be used is performed. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as lottery right selection means. The processing unit 20 of the communication terminal 104 uses the input unit 24 to receive an instruction from the user to select and use an unused lottery right registered in the lottery right database. Then, the processing unit 20 transmits the lottery right ID of the selected lottery right and the amount of change in the element recorded in association with the selected lottery right to the server 102 via the communication unit 28 and the communication unit 18 .

In step S18, a process of changing the lottery probability when the lottery right is used is performed. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as lottery probability changing means. When the processing unit 10 of the server 102 receives the lottery right ID and the change amount of the element transmitted from the communication terminal 104, it changes the lottery probability for the privilege when the lottery right ID is used according to the change amount of the element. process.

For example, if the amount of change in the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired is the time that has elapsed since the lottery right was acquired, a lottery will be drawn for a specific benefit given to the user when the lottery right is used. Perform processing to increase the probability. In a specific example, in a configuration in which an item that can be used in an electronic game is given to a user by lottery when the lottery right is used, the longer the elapsed time, the higher the probability that the item will be provided.

Further, for example, when a privilege selected by a lottery among a plurality of privileges is granted to the user, the probability that each of the plurality of privileges is selected by lottery may be changed. In a specific example, in a configuration in which one of a plurality of items that can be used in an electronic game is given to a user by lottery when the lottery right is used, the probability of being selected by lottery for each item is changed according to the elapsed time. You should do it like this.

As a specific example, parameters such as rarity are set for each of multiple items in a lottery called gacha, and the lottery probability of items with a predetermined parameter (rarity) or higher among the multiple items is increased according to the elapsed time. You may do so. Alternatively, thresholds may be set in several steps for the amount of change, and the probability may be increased step by step each time the amount of change exceeds the threshold.

Similarly, the amount of change in the position of the communication terminal 104 (movement distance, the cumulative number of places where the communication terminal 104 was used, etc.), the amount of change in the outside temperature from when the lottery right was acquired, and when the lottery right was acquired User's exercise amount (cumulative number of steps, cumulative Mets amount, etc.) from when the lottery right was acquired, user's biometric information change amount (pulse rate change, pulse rate cumulative value, etc.) after the lottery right was acquired, lottery right was acquired Probability of benefits provided to the user when the lottery right is used according to the amount of change in the operation of the communication terminal 104 from the time of the event (cumulative number of times the communication terminal 104 has been used, cumulative number of times the communication terminal 104 has been shaken, etc.) may be changed. In addition, the amount of change in the stamina value of allies in the electronic game since the lottery right was acquired (e.g. cumulative increase/decrease in hit points of the allies), and the damage done to the enemy in the electronic game since the lottery right was acquired Amount of change in value (e.g. cumulative decrease in enemy hit points), cumulative number of stages cleared in the electronic game from the time the lottery right was acquired, cumulative number of electronic games played from the time the lottery right was acquired Time, amount of change in items acquired in the electronic game since the lottery right was acquired (cumulative number of items acquired, types of items acquired, etc.), change in friends who played the electronic game since the lottery right was acquired The lottery probability for the privilege provided to the user when the lottery right is used may be changed according to the amount (such as the cumulative number of friends who have played the electronic game).

In step S20, a process of drawing and providing a privilege is performed. Through the processing in this step, the privilege providing system 100 functions as privilege providing means. The processing unit 10 of the server 102 performs a lottery for providing a privilege to the user based on the lottery probability set for the lottery right in step S18. Then, the processing unit 10 transmits to the communication terminal 104 via the communication unit 18 and the communication unit 28 the privilege to be provided as a result of the lottery. The processing unit 20 of the communication terminal 104 receives the transmitted privilege. A privilege is given with respect to a user by this.

<Modification>
In this modified example, an example in which multiple lottery rights are used at the same time will be described. That is, the processing of steps S18 and S20 will be described for a case where the user selects a plurality of lottery rights and uses them at the same time in step S16.

In step S18, a process of changing the lottery probability when the lottery right is used is performed. When the processing unit 10 of the server 102 receives the lottery right IDs and the amount of change in the elements for the plurality of lottery rights transmitted from the communication terminal 104, the processing unit 10 combines the amount of change in the elements to determine the lottery right ID when using the lottery right ID. A process of changing the lottery probability for the privilege is performed.

For example, it is possible to calculate an added value by adding up the amount of change in elements for a plurality of lottery rights, and change the lottery probability for providing a privilege according to the added value. In a specific example, if the amount of change in the element that changes after the lottery right is acquired is the elapsed time from when the lottery right was acquired, the greater the added value of the elapsed time when using multiple lottery rights What is necessary is just to raise the probability that a privilege is provided. Similar processing may be performed when the amount of change of another element is employed.

In addition, the combination of the amount of change in the elements is not limited to adding the amount of change in the elements for a plurality of lottery rights, and may be other arithmetic processing such as an integrated value, an average value, or some other method. Statistical treatments may be applied.

In step S20, a process of drawing and providing a privilege is performed. The processing unit 10 of the server 102 performs a lottery for providing a privilege to the user based on the lottery probability set based on the amount of change in elements for a plurality of lottery rights in step S18.
