The game according to the first embodiment includes a lottery game for allowing the player to obtain a character as an example of content, and a quest. The lottery game is also called Gacha, Fukubiki, Summoning, and the like. A quest is also called a battle game, search, mission, or the like.

In the first embodiment, there are a plurality of types of lottery games (hereinafter also referred to as "normal lottery games"), each with a different name (title). Each lottery game can be selected by the player on the menu screen or the like of the lottery game. Each type of lottery game is associated with a lottery target character group (plurality of characters), and part or all of the lottery target character group is different for each lottery game. Also, the lottery game has a set timing (holding period), and there is a period in which only one kind of lottery game is held in the game and a period in which two or more kinds of lottery games are held at the same time. Examples of the holding time include "12:00 on the 1st day of every month to 12:00 on the 3rd day of every month" and "18:00 on December 29th to 18:00 on December 31st every year". Note that, in the first embodiment, even in the same type of lottery game, the characters forming the lottery target character group may differ (replace) depending on when the game is held. For example, even if it is a lottery game of the same type, characters that were not included in the lottery target character group before the update may not be updated due to the addition of new characters (for example, the main character) due to the update of the game. Later, it may be included in the lottery target character group. This update of the game is also called a version upgrade or an update.

Further, in the first embodiment, based on an operation instruction (request) for the player to select one lottery game among one or a plurality of types of lottery games, characters are randomly selected from the lottery target character group corresponding to the one lottery game. Let the player acquire one or more characters that are (randomly) selected. This lottery game is executed based on the player's consumption of the consideration associated with the lottery game. Examples of the compensation include paid items (charged items) and free items (non-charged items). A paid item is a game item purchased by paying a charge. Paid items include, for example, paid stones, paid gacha tickets, and the like. A free item is a game item that can be obtained by playing the game. For example, free items can be obtained as rewards for logging in, clearing quests, completing missions, and so on. Examples of free items include free stones, free gacha tickets, game coins, and the like. These paid items and free items can be used not only for the execution of the lottery game, but also for various purposes such as recovery of stamina and continuation of quests. In addition, paid items are more valuable than free items. For example, in a lottery game that can be executed only with paid items, a character with a higher rarity (rarity value) than a lottery game that can be executed with paid items or free items is acquired. Cheap. In a lottery game that can be executed with paid items or free items, for example, free items are preferentially consumed.

In addition, in the first embodiment, the player is awarded points that are commonly accumulated in each type of lottery game. This point is given to the player, for example, when a character with a low rarity (for example, a character with a rarity of 4 or less) is drawn. Then, when the given points reach a predetermined number (for example, 50 points), the player is given the right to execute an event corresponding to the timing of the arrival. Details of this event will be described later.

Also, in the first embodiment, there are multiple types of quests, each with a different name (title). Each of the plurality of quests can be selected by the player on the quest menu screen or the like. Then, based on an operation instruction (request) for selecting one quest from the plurality of quests by the player, the one quest is executed. This quest is executed based on the player consuming the stamina value associated with the quest. Note that the player's stamina value (current stamina value) may be consumed when the quest is completed (cleared or retired).

In addition, in the first embodiment, a quest is executed in which a team made up of one or more characters owned by the player is made to play against an enemy character. In this quest, for example, the player instructs the characters forming the team (characters within the team) to attack or the like. Also, in this quest, the player aims to reduce the hit points of the enemy character to 0 or less by using the ability parameters and skills of each character in the team. When the quest is cleared, the player obtains clear rewards such as free stones, game coins, characters, items, and experience points. On the other hand, if the quest cannot be cleared, the player selects whether to continue the quest by consuming paid stones, free stones, continue items, or the like, or to retire from the quest. The continuation is to give a continuation right to the player who has not cleared the quest so that the player can continue playing the quest.

<Functional means>
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the server device 10. As shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 4, the server device 10 includes storage means 50, first acceptance means 52, second acceptance means 54, lottery means 56, and control means 58 as functional configurations. The storage means 50 is realized by one or more storage devices 28 . Functional means other than the storage means 50 are realized by the control device 20 executing the game program 14 stored in the storage device 28 or the like.

The storage means 50 is functional means for storing player information 50A, character information 50B, lottery game information 50C, and the like. The player information 50A is stored for each player in association with the player ID of the player. This player information 50A includes, for example, the player's name and age, owned character information, owned item information, owned points, and stamina information. The owned character information includes information about a plurality of characters owned by the player, and includes, for example, character IDs and ability parameters of each owned character. Ability parameters are, for example, a character's level, hit points, attack power, defense power, and the like. The level rises based on the granting of an experience value, which is a parameter for training the character, to the character. As the character's level increases, the character's hit points, attack power, defense power, etc. also increase. The owned item information includes the number of items owned by the player and the acquisition date and time of each item. Examples of such items include paid stones, paid gacha tickets, free stones, and free gacha tickets. The owned points are the points (accumulated number) owned by the player. These points are accumulated in common when the player executes each type of lottery game. Also, points are awarded when, for example, the player wins a character with a low rarity (for example, a character with a rarity of 4 or less) as a result of executing a lottery game. The stamina information includes the player's current stamina value and stamina upper limit value. The current stamina value is a value consumed when the player executes a quest. This current stamina value recovers to the upper limit of stamina over time. Also, this current stamina value can be recovered beyond the stamina upper limit by consuming paid stones, free stones, stamina recovery items, and the like. This stamina upper limit increases as the player's player rank increases. A player rank rises based on, for example, a player playing a game (for example, quest).

The character information 50B is stored for each character in association with the character ID of the character. The character information 50B includes, for example, the name and image of the character, rarity, initial values of ability parameters (for example, hit points, attack power, defense power, etc. at level 1) and maximum values (for example, hit points, attack power, attack power, etc. at level 100). defense power, etc.), skills, etc. It should be noted that the higher the rarity of the character, the more advantageous ability parameters and skills are set for the quest.

The lottery game information 50C is stored for each lottery game in association with the lottery game ID of the lottery game. The lottery game information 50C includes, for example, a name (title), lottery target information, the number of acquired characters, the acquired character level, and the price. The lottery target information includes the character ID of each character constituting the lottery target character group, which is the lottery target of the lottery game, and the lottery probability associated with the character ID. For example, 100 types of characters constitute the lottery target character group. As for the lottery probability, a low probability (%) is set for a character with high rarity, and a high probability (%) is set for a character with low rarity. The number of acquired characters includes the number of characters acquired by the player when the lottery game is executed once. The acquired character level includes the level (initial level) of the character acquired by the player in the lottery game. The consideration includes the number of game items required for executing the lottery game. The game items include paid items, free items, and the like. A lottery game in which a character with a high rarity can easily be obtained may have a large amount of consideration set, or may have a high-value type of consideration set (for example, only paid items).

The first accepting means 52 is functional means for accepting a first instruction from the player to execute one lottery game without accumulating points. In the first embodiment, the first reception means 52 permits reception of the first instruction when the player's possession points have reached a second predetermined number that is less than a predetermined number (first predetermined number). . This predetermined number (first predetermined number) is 50, for example. The second predetermined number may be a value equal to or greater than 0 and less than a predetermined number (first predetermined number), such as 45. Further, in the first embodiment, the first receiving means 52 accepts the first instruction when there is a possibility that the player's owned points will reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number) due to the second instruction described later. To give permission. For example, when the number of points given by the second instruction is any one of 0 to 10 and the predetermined number (first predetermined number) is 50, the first receiving means 52 determines whether the player has 40 or more points. At some point, it is determined that there is a possibility that the predetermined number (first predetermined number) will be reached, and acceptance of the first instruction is permitted. On the other hand, in this case, when the player's possession points are less than 40, the first reception means 52 determines that there is no possibility of reaching the predetermined number (first predetermined number), and permits reception of the first instruction. do not (stop). Note that the first reception unit 52 may permit the reception of the first instruction only when the player's owned points reliably reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number) due to the second instruction.

The second receiving means 54 is functional means for receiving a second instruction from the player to accumulate points and execute one lottery game. In the first embodiment, when the number of times the first reception means 52 receives the first instruction for one lottery game exceeds a predetermined number of times, the second reception means 54 receives the first instruction for the one lottery game. Do not allow (stop) to accept two instructions. The predetermined number of times may be a numerical value of 1 or more, for example, 3. For example, when the number of times the first reception means 52 has received the first instruction is less than 3, the second reception means 54 permits reception of the second instruction, and when the number of times the first instruction has been received is 3 or more, the second reception means 54 permits the reception of the second instruction. If there is, it does not allow (stops) acceptance of the second instruction. The second reception unit 54 may not permit reception of the second instruction when the first reception unit 52 has continuously received the first instruction a predetermined number of times or more.

The lottery means 56 is a functional means for allowing the player to obtain a character drawn from a lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game in accordance with an operation instruction (request) from the player. In the first embodiment, the lottery means 56 executes the lottery game when the first instruction or the second instruction is given.

In addition, in the first embodiment, the lottery means 56 preferentially treats the price of the lottery game or the execution result of the lottery game when the first instruction is given, and does not award points to the player in the execution of the lottery game. On the other hand, when the second instruction is received, the lottery means 56 gives points to the player by executing the lottery game without giving preferential treatment to the price of the lottery game or the execution result. In other words, when the first instruction is given, the lottery means 56 preferentially treats the price or execution result of the lottery game as compared to when the second instruction is given, and does not accumulate points in the lottery game.

A specific example in which the lottery means 56 gives points to the player will be described below. These specific examples may be combined with each other.

(1) Granting Points According to the Number of Characters Drawn For example, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of times the character was drawn in the lottery game. In other words, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of characters acquired in the lottery game. Specifically, the lottery means 56 gives 10 points to the player when the character is drawn 10 times in the lottery game, for example.

(2) Granting points according to the number of low-rarity characters selected by lottery. Also, for example, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of times characters with a rarity equal to or lower than a first predetermined value are selected in the lottery game. Give. In other words, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of low-rarity characters acquired in the lottery game. Specifically, the lottery means 56 gives 5 points to the player, for example, when a character whose rarity is equal to or lower than a first predetermined value (eg, 4) is drawn five times in a lottery game.

(3) Granting points according to the number of high-rarity characters selected by lottery. Also, for example, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of times characters with a rarity higher than the first predetermined value are drawn in the lottery game. Grant to. In other words, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of high-rarity characters acquired in the lottery game. Specifically, the lottery means 56 gives 3 points to the player, for example, when a character whose rarity is higher than a first predetermined value (eg, 4) is drawn three times in a lottery game.

A specific example in which the lottery means 56 gives preferential treatment to the price or execution result of the lottery game will be described below. These specific examples may be combined with each other.

(1) Decrease the amount of consideration For example, the lottery means 56 reduces the amount of consideration consumed when the first instruction is given than the amount of consideration consumed when the second instruction is given. Specifically, when the first instruction is given, the lottery means 56 gives preferential treatment by setting the amount of consideration to be consumed to be 4 paid stones (an amount smaller than the amount of consideration in the lottery game information 50C). On the other hand, when the second instruction is given, the lottery means 56 does not give preferential treatment by setting the amount of consideration to be consumed to 5 paid stones (the same amount as the amount of consideration in the lottery game information 50C).

(2) Set the price to be of a lower value type Also, for example, the lottery means 56 sets the price to be consumed when the first instruction is given to a price of a lower value than the price to be consumed when the second instruction is given. to Specifically, the lottery means 56 treats preferentially as a price to be consumed when the first instruction is given as a free item (a game item with a lower value than the game item that is the price of the lottery game information 50C). On the other hand, the lottery means 56 treats the price to be consumed when the second instruction is given as a paid item (game item that is the price of the lottery game information 50C) and does not give preferential treatment.

(3) Change the ability parameter of the acquired character. Further, for example, the lottery means 56 changes the ability parameter of the character to be acquired when the first instruction is given to the ability parameter of the character to be obtained when the second instruction is given. change to be more favorable. Specifically, when the first instruction is received, the lottery means 56 sets the level of the character to be acquired by lottery to a value (for example, 100) higher than the acquired character level of the lottery game information 50C to give preferential treatment. On the other hand, when the second instruction is received, the lottery means 56 sets the level of the character to be acquired by lottery to the same value (for example, 1) as the acquired character level of the lottery game information 50C, and does not give preferential treatment.

(4) Increase the number of acquired characters Also, for example, the lottery means 56 increases the number of characters to be acquired when the first instruction is given, more than the number of characters to be acquired when the second instruction is given. Let Specifically, the lottery means 56 gives preferential treatment by setting the number of characters to be obtained by lottery when the first instruction is given to a value (for example, 11) higher than the number of characters to be obtained in the lottery game information 50C. On the other hand, the lottery means 56 sets the number of characters to be acquired by lottery when the second instruction is given to the same value (eg, 10) as the number of acquired characters in the lottery game information 50C, and does not give preferential treatment.

(5) Acquire an item corresponding to the given points Also, for example, when the first instruction is given, the lottery means 56 obtains an item corresponding to the number of points that would have been given if the second instruction had been given. . In other words, the lottery means 56 acquires items of equivalent value instead of the points given (accumulated) in the lottery game. Specifically, when there is a first instruction, the lottery means 56 has a value equivalent to the points that should have been given (accumulated) if the second instruction was 3 points. Acquire 3 continue items.

(6) Increase the lottery probability of high-rarity characters Also, for example, when the first instruction is given, the lottery means 56 increases the lottery probability of the high-rarity characters among the lottery target character group if the second instruction is given. be higher than when Specifically, when the first instruction is given, the lottery means 56 increases the lottery probability of a character with a rarity of 5 or higher by 3% (gives preferential treatment). On the other hand, when the second instruction is given, the lottery means 56 does not change the lottery probability of each character (does not give preferential treatment).

The control means 58 is functional means for controlling the entire game. In the first embodiment, when the owned points (accumulated number) reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number), the control means 58 grants the player the right to execute an event corresponding to the timing of the arrival. and execute the event. In this event, for example, part or all of the lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game when the accumulated number reaches a predetermined number (first predetermined number) is selected, and the player acquires the selected character. This selectable object has a predetermined number of accumulations (first predetermined number ) depending on the timing of arrival.

Note that the control means 58 may automatically execute the event immediately after granting the right to execute the event, or the player may exercise the right to execute the event (for example, using an event ticket or pressing an event execution button). ), the event may be executed.

Specific examples of events executed by the control means 58 will be described below.

(1) Acquire a lottery target character by the player's act (acquisition event)
For example, the control means 58 presents, as selection targets, part or all of the lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game when the accumulated number reaches a predetermined number (first predetermined number), ) executes an acquisition event in which the player acquires one character selected by the method.

(2) Randomly obtain lottery characters (special lottery event)
For example, the control means 58 selects a part or all of the lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game when the accumulated number reaches a predetermined number (first predetermined number) as a selection target at random. A special lottery event (special lottery game) is executed in which the player acquires one character. For example, in this special lottery event, only characters with a high rarity (for example, characters with a rarity of 5 or higher) are selected, and characters with a high rarity are drawn with a higher probability than in the normal lottery game.

(3) Acquire lottery target characters through quests (special quest event)
For example, the control means 58 selects a part or all of the lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game when the accumulated number reaches a predetermined number (first predetermined number), and randomly (randomly) or operates the game. A special quest event is executed in which a character selected by the person's act appears as an enemy character of the quest. When the player clears the special quest event, the control means 58 causes the player to obtain the enemy character that has appeared according to a predetermined drop rate.

When the player gives an operation instruction to select one lottery game from the lottery game menu, the control means 58 controls the display of the lottery game execution screen 60 on the touch panel 32 .

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a lottery game execution screen 60 according to the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 6, the lottery game execution screen 60 is provided with a provision ratio button 62, a lottery object information area 64, a first instruction button 66, a second instruction button 68, and an ownership information presentation area 70. It is The provision ratio button 62 is a button for transitioning to a screen showing the names, rarities, and lottery probabilities of the characters constituting the lottery target character group of the lottery game. In the lottery target information area 64, characters with high rarity (eyeball characters) among the lottery target character group of the lottery game are displayed. The first instruction button 66 is a button for executing the lottery game selected by the player without giving (accumulating) points. The second instruction button 68 is a button for giving (accumulating) points and executing the lottery game selected by the player. In the possession information presentation area 70, the points owned (possessed) by the player, paid stones, and free stones are represented by numerical values. It should be noted that the points owned by the player indicate the points required until the right to execute the event is granted in an identifiable manner.

Returning to FIG. 5, the process shifts to the process of step SP12.

(Step SP12)
The first receiving means 52 and the second receiving means 54 receive pressing of the first instruction button 66 or the second instruction button 68 (request to execute the lottery game) from the player. First, the first receiving unit 52 determines whether or not the first instruction button 66 has been pressed. Then, when the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step SP24. On the other hand, if the determination is negative and the second reception unit 54 receives the depression of the second instruction button 68, the process proceeds to step SP14.

(Step SP14)
The lottery means 56 executes the lottery game by referring to the lottery target information of the lottery game information 50C, the number of acquired characters, the consideration, and the like. Specifically, the lottery means 56 consumes the price from the player's owned item, and performs lottery from the lottery target character group based on the lottery probability of each character constituting the lottery target character group. The lottery means 56 performs this lottery the same number of times as the number of acquired characters. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP16.

(Step SP16)
The lottery means 56 allows the player to acquire one or more characters selected in step SP14 as acquired characters. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP18.

(Step SP18)
The lottery means 56 gives the player points according to the execution result of the lottery game. For example, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of times the character with a rarity of 4 is drawn in step SP14. In other words, the lottery means 56 gives the player the same number of points as the number of characters with a rarity of 4 acquired in step SP16. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP20.

(Step SP20)
The control means 58 determines whether or not the points owned by the player (accumulated number) have reached a predetermined number (first predetermined number) as a result of the points being awarded in step SP18. Specifically, the control means 58 determines whether or not the player's possession points have reached 50, for example. Then, when the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step SP22. On the other hand, if the determination is negative, the process ends the series of processes shown in FIG.

(Step SP22)
The control means 58 grants the event execution right to the player to execute the event. For example, the control means 58 automatically executes the acquisition event immediately after the possessed points reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number). Specifically, the control means 58 controls the display of the acquisition event execution screen 80 on the touch panel 32 .

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of an acquisition event execution screen 80 according to the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 7, the acquisition event execution screen 80 is provided with a selection object presentation area 82 and an acquisition button 84 . In the selection object presentation area 82, a part of the lottery object character group associated with the lottery game when the owned points reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number) is presented as selection objects. The selection targets are, for example, two characters with a rarity of 6 and one character with a rarity of 5, one of which (for example, character S) is a character newly added by the latest update of the game. . The acquisition button 84 is a button for acquiring the associated selection target character.

Returning to FIG. 5, the control means 58 causes the player to acquire one character associated with the acquisition button 84 pressed by the player. Subsequently, the control means 58 subtracts a predetermined number (first predetermined number) from the player's owned points to initialize the owned points. Then, the process ends the series of processes shown in FIG.

(Step SP24)
The lottery means 56 gives preferential treatment to the price or execution result of the lottery game (normal lottery game). For example, the lottery means 56 makes the amount of consideration consumed in the lottery game smaller than the amount of consideration consumed in the case of the second instruction (for example, 5 stones). Also, the lottery means 56 makes the ability parameter of the character to be acquired in the lottery game higher than the ability parameter of the character to be acquired when the second instruction is given. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP26.

(Step SP26)
The lottery means 56 executes the lottery game by referring to the lottery target information, the number of acquired characters, and the price in the lottery game information 50C. More specifically, the lottery means 56 consumes the amount of consideration preferentially treated in step SP24, for example, from the items possessed by the player, and draws a lottery from the lottery target character group based on the lottery probability of each character constituting the lottery target character group. conduct. The lottery means 56 performs this lottery the same number of times as the number of acquired characters. Then, the process shifts to the process of step SP28.

(Step SP28)
The lottery means 56 allows the player to acquire one or more characters selected in step SP26 as acquired characters. For example, the lottery means 56 changes the ability parameter of the acquired character to the ability parameter preferentially treated in step SP24. Then, the process ends the series of processes shown in FIG.

According to this configuration, it is possible to obtain the same number of contents as the number of accumulated contents without accumulating, so that it is possible to motivate the player to continue playing the lottery game.

In the first embodiment, the preferential treatment is to increase the lottery probability of content with high rarity among the lottery target content group associated with the lottery game.

According to this configuration, accumulation is not performed, and the lottery probability of content with high rarity increases, so that the player can be motivated to continue playing the lottery game.

--- Second Embodiment ---
Next, a second embodiment will be described.

In the second embodiment, the player's lottery history is stored in the player information 50A, the first reception means 52 and the second reception means 54 are omitted, and the control means 58 selects the lottery according to the lottery history. This differs from the first embodiment in that it treats events preferentially. The configuration and functions of the game system according to the second embodiment, which are not described below, are the same as those of the game system according to the first embodiment.

In the second embodiment, the lottery means 56 stores, in the player information 50A, a lottery history including information on the rarity of characters drawn from the lottery target character group. For example, the lottery means 56 stores character IDs or rarities of one or more characters drawn by lottery as a lottery history each time a lottery is conducted.
When the character ID is stored as the lottery history, the control means 58 can specify the rarity associated with the character ID by referring to the character information 50B.

Further, in the second embodiment, the control means 58 preferentially treats the event as the number of characters whose rarity is higher than the second predetermined value in the lottery history is small. For example, the control means 58 determines the preferential treatment of the event according to the number of characters included in the lottery history whose rarity is higher than a second predetermined value (eg, 5). Specifically, the control means 58 sets the event preferential treatment to “high” when the number of characters is 0 to 2, and sets the event preferential treatment to “medium” when the number of characters is 3 to 5. , If there are 6 to 8 bodies, the degree of preferential treatment for the event will be "low", and if there are 9 or more, the event will not be given preferential treatment.

Further, in the second embodiment, the control means 58 preferentially treats the event as the lottery history includes more characters whose rarity is lower than the second predetermined value. For example, the control means 58 determines the preferential treatment of the event according to the number of characters included in the lottery history whose rarity is lower than a second predetermined value (eg, 5). Specifically, when the number of characters is 45 or more, the control means 58 sets the event preference level to "high", and when the number of characters is 40 to 44, sets the event preference level to "medium", If there are 35 to 39 bodies, the degree of preferential treatment for the event is set to "low", and if there are 0 to 34 bodies, no preferential treatment is given to the event.
Note that the first predetermined value and the second predetermined value may be the same value.

A specific example in which the control means 58 preferentially treats an event will be described below. These specific examples may be combined with each other.

(1) Adding a high-rarity character to the selection target For example, when executing the acquisition event or the special lottery event described above, the control means 58 adds a high-rarity character (for example, a character with a rarity of 5) to the selection target. do. Specifically, the control means 58 adds 5 bodies when the preferential treatment of the event is "high", adds 3 bodies when the preferential treatment of the event is "medium", and adds 3 bodies when the preferential treatment of the event is "low". In the case of , add one. The characters to be added may be characters constituting a lottery target character group corresponding to the lottery game when the accumulated number reaches a predetermined number (first predetermined number), or may be a character for a different type of lottery game. It may be a character that constitutes a corresponding lottery target character group.

(2) Increase the probability that a high rarity character is selected. Also, for example, the control means 58 selects a character with a high rarity (for example, a character with a rarity of 6) among the selection targets in the special lottery event described above. increase the probability of Specifically, the control means 58 increases the probability by 3% when the preferential treatment of the event is "high", increases it by 2% when the preferential treatment of the event is "medium", and increases the probability of the event when the preferential treatment of the event is " If it is "low", increase it by 1%. Note that the control means 58 may determine a character whose probability of being randomly selected from among the selection targets is increased by an instruction operation (request) from the player.

(3) Increase the Number of Acquired Characters Also, for example, the control means 58 increases the number of characters to be acquired by the player in the acquisition event or the special lottery event described above. Specifically, the control means 58 increases the number of animals by three when the preferential treatment of the event is "high", increases the number of animals by two when the preferential treatment of the event is "medium", and increases the number of animals by two when the preferential treatment of the event is "low". In the case of , increase by 1.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of the flow of processing performed by the lottery means 56 and the like in the game system according to the second embodiment.

Specifically, the control means 58 sets the event preferential treatment to “high” when the number of characters is 0 to 2, and sets the event preferential treatment to “medium” when the number of characters is 3 to 5. , If there are 6 to 8 bodies, the degree of preferential treatment for the event will be "low", and if there are 9 or more, the event will not be given preferential treatment. Subsequently, the control means 58 deletes the information about the rarity stored in the lottery history of the player information 50A, and initializes the lottery history. Subsequently, the control means 58 subtracts a predetermined number (first predetermined number) from the player's owned points to initialize the owned points. Then, the processing shifts to the processing of step SP42.

(Step SP42)
The control means 58 gives the player the event execution right to execute the event based on the preferential treatment determined in step SP40. For example, the control means 58 automatically executes a special lottery event immediately after the owned points reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number). Here, for example, if the preferential treatment of the event determined in step SP40 is "medium", the control means 58 increases the number of characters to be acquired by the player in the special lottery event by two to three. Subsequently, the control means 58 controls the display of the special lottery event execution screen 100 on the touch panel 32 .

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a special lottery event execution screen 100 according to the second embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 10, the special lottery event execution screen 100 is provided with a selection object presentation area 102 and a special lottery instruction button 104 . In the selection object presentation area 102, part of the lottery object character group associated with the lottery game when the possessed points reach a predetermined number (first predetermined number) is presented as selection objects. The selection targets are, for example, two characters with a rarity of 6 and seven characters with a rarity of 5, two of which (for example, character F and character J) were newly added by the latest update of the game. is a character. The special lottery instruction button 104 is a button for executing a special lottery event (special lottery game).

Returning to FIG. 8, when the special lottery instruction button 104 is pressed by the player, the control means 58 causes the player to obtain, for example, three characters drawn from the selection targets. Then, the process ends the series of processes shown in FIG.

--- Modification ---
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above specific examples. In other words, the above-described specific examples are also included in the scope of the present invention as long as they have the features of the present invention, as long as they are appropriately modified in design by those skilled in the art. In addition, each element provided in the embodiment described above and the modified example described later can be combined as long as it is technically possible, and the combination thereof is also included in the scope of the present invention as long as it includes the features of the present invention. .

For example, in the above-described first embodiment, the lottery means 56 consumes free items with the first instruction and consumes paid items with the second instruction, but the first instruction consumes free items or paid items. Alternatively, the second instruction may consume only paid items. At this time, the lottery means 56 may preferentially consume free items in the first instruction, and consume paid items after the free items owned by the player are exhausted (reduced to zero).

Further, in the above-described first embodiment, the lottery means 56 explained the case where the ability parameter of the character acquired by the first instruction is higher than that of the character acquired by the second instruction. Etc. advantageous ability parameters may be lowered. The ability parameters include, for example, the number of turns in which the character's skill is activated, and the cost (organization cost) incurred when the character is organized into a team.

Further, in the first embodiment, the lottery means 56 increases the number of characters acquired by the first instruction more than the number of characters acquired by the second instruction. Instead of increasing the number of characters, the number of items (bonus items) to be acquired may be increased. Examples of such items include continue items and stamina recovery items.

Further, in the first embodiment described above, the lottery means 56 may limit the number of times or timing of giving preferential treatment according to the first instruction. Also, the lottery means 56 may give preferential treatment even when the second instruction is given.

In the second embodiment, the control means 58 increases the number of characters to be acquired by the player as a preferential treatment of the event. items) may be increased.

In addition, in the above-described first embodiment and second embodiment, the control means 58 selects a part or all of the lottery target character group of the lottery game being executed at the timing when the accumulation number reaches the predetermined number in the event. However, only characters newly added by updating the game may be selected. The newly added characters include, for example, characters newly added within three months. This newly added character may be an evolved character of an existing character when a new evolution destination of the existing character is added.

In addition, in the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, when executing an event, the control means 58 initializes the owned points (accumulated number) and does not consume any consideration other than the owned points. It is good also as consuming considerations other than a point. Other considerations include paid items, free items, and stamina values.

Further, in the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, the lottery means 56 performs a lottery game based on the lottery probability of the lottery target character. A lottery game may be executed in which a player obtains a character drawn by lottery and the character is deleted from the deck. Here, the lottery means 56 randomly selects each character housed in the deck with a uniform probability. This deck may be individually associated with each player, or may be associated with a plurality of players.

Also, in the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, the number of acquired characters is stored in the lottery game information 50C, but the player may select the number of acquired characters. For example, when the player requests the execution of the lottery game with the number of acquired characters set to 1, the lottery means 56 consumes the consideration necessary for executing the lottery game once, and the player selects the number of acquired characters as 10. When a request for execution of the lottery game is made as , the price required for executing the lottery game ten times is consumed.

In addition, in the above-described first and second embodiments, the case where the accumulated number is the point has been explained, but items, pieces of items, in-game currency, etc. may be used, and there is no particular limitation as long as the content can be accumulated. In addition, although the case where the accumulation number is commonly accumulated in each type of lottery game has been explained, it may be accumulated only in some lottery games, or may be accumulated only in one lottery game. Alternatively, different points may be accumulated for each lottery game. As a part of the lottery game, for example, there is a lottery game that consumes paid stones or free stones. In these cases, the control means 58 determines whether or not the points awarded (accumulated) in the executed lottery game have reached a predetermined number (first predetermined number), for example, in steps SP20 and SP38.

Also, in the above-described first and second embodiments, the case where the contents are characters that can be used in quests has been mainly described, but items, cards, avatars, coins, points, and the like may also be used.
