(a) shows the game screen D1 in which the trajectory 1 is displayed on the puzzle 6; b) shows a game screen D2 in which the character 7a is displayed at the end point 8b of the trajectory 1.

The mobile terminal 100 is an information processing device (computer) that includes an input surface 41 that can detect a touch operation by a user, and processes the progress of a puzzle game and a battle game using characters (game media).

As shown in FIG. 2(a), the user traces the input surface 41 using a finger (which may be a pointing tool such as a stylus) (performs a single-stroke touch operation on the input surface 41). Then, from the position where the touch-down to the input surface 41 is started (the position where the contact to the input surface 41 is started, hereinafter referred to as the "starting point 8a"), the position where the touch-up is performed (the position where the contact to the input surface 41 is finished, A locus 1 connecting the puzzles to the end point 8b (hereinafter referred to as "end point 8b") is drawn on the plurality of puzzles 6, and the plurality of puzzles 6 are in a selected state.

If the plurality of puzzles 6 selected by the touch operation drawing the trajectory 1 have the same color/pattern (attribute), the mobile terminal 100 erases (deletes) the plurality of puzzles 6 and Change the arrangement of other puzzles 6 that are different from .

Next, the mobile terminal 100 adds predetermined points according to the number of puzzles 6 included in the trajectory 1 and the like. When the cumulative value of the points exceeds a predetermined threshold, the mobile terminal 100 displays a predetermined point near the end point 8b (including the end point 8b) so as to overlap with the puzzle 6 (that is, on the puzzle game screen). A character 7a (game medium, first game medium) used in the competitive game is displayed within the area (see (b) of FIG. 2).

The character 7a competes (battles) with an enemy character 7b (second game medium) that moves in a predetermined direction on the puzzle 6 (on the screen of the puzzle game). By having the character 7a defeat the enemy character 7b, it is possible to prevent the game ending condition (for example, the enemy character 7b from advancing to the bottom of the game screen D1) from being satisfied, and the user is unable to continue the game. can.

That is, the mobile terminal 100 displays a game screen D1 in which an area for displaying puzzles and an area for displaying a process in which characters compete are integrated (like the game screen of the conventional game shown in FIG. 5, (the above two areas are not separated). Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can provide a highly entertaining and strategic game in which puzzles and character battles are linked.

Furthermore, the mobile terminal 100 does not impose a burden on the user to move his or her line of sight back and forth between the two areas. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can give the user a sense of immersion in the game.

As mentioned above, in the above game, the character 7a displayed on the screen of the puzzle game (the character 7a used in the battle game) wanders around the screen of the puzzle game as the puzzle game progresses. This is a game in which the player competes against an enemy character 7b (moving in the direction of ). However, the game configuration and the game screen D1 illustrated in the drawings are merely an example for explaining the present embodiment, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

Similarly, the character 7a and the enemy character 7b only need to be predetermined game media (any electronic data used by the user in the game) used to progress the puzzle game, and their shapes, patterns, colors, etc. , and is not limited to the shapes shown in the above description and drawings.

[Configuration of mobile terminal 100]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the main configuration of a mobile terminal 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile terminal 100 includes an input section 40 (input surface 41, input control section 42), a control section 10 (puzzle judgment section 11, rectangle judgment section 12, benefit generation section 13, point giving section 14). , a puzzle changing section 15, a point determining section 16, a display output section 17, a determining section 18), a display section 50, and a storage section 30.

The input unit 40 accepts touch operations by the user. In this embodiment, the input unit 40 may be a touch panel capable of detecting multi-touch. The input section 40 includes an input surface 41 and an input control section 42 .

The input surface 41 is a device (for example, a touch surface included in the touch panel) that can detect a position specified by a touch operation by a user. The input surface 41 outputs coordinate information 5a corresponding to the specified position to the input control section 42.

The input control unit 42 acquires the coordinate information 5a from the input surface 41 at predetermined time intervals, and outputs the series of coordinate information 5a as the trajectory 1 to the puzzle determination unit 11. Further, when the input control unit 42 acquires the coordinate information 5a from the input surface 41, the input control unit 42 outputs the coordinate information 5a to the rectangle determination unit 12.

The control unit 10 comprehensively controls the functions of the mobile terminal 100. The control unit 10 includes a determining unit 18 (puzzle determining unit 11, rectangle determining unit 12), a benefit generating unit 13, a point giving unit 14, a puzzle changing unit 15, a point determining unit 16, and a display output unit 17.

The determination unit (determination function) 18 determines whether or not the plurality of puzzles 6 selected by the touch operation satisfy a predetermined condition. The determination unit 18 includes a puzzle determination unit 11 and a rectangle determination unit 12.

The puzzle determination unit (determination function) 11 determines whether or not the plurality of puzzles 6 selected by the touch operation of drawing the trajectory 1 on the input surface 41 have the same color/pattern (attribute). It is determined as one of the conditions, and the determined result (determination result 3a) is output to the benefit generation section 13, point giving section 14, and puzzle changing section 15.

The rectangle determination unit (determination function) 12 determines whether or not a predetermined number or more of puzzles 6 are arranged to form a rectangle, as one of the predetermined conditions, and determines the determined result (determination result 3b). ) is output to the puzzle changing section 15. Further, the rectangle determining unit 12 further determines whether or not the changed arrangement of the puzzles 6 (information regarding the arrangement is included in the change information 4c) is arranged to form a predetermined rectangle.

The benefit generation unit (generation function) 13 generates a benefit that gives a predetermined effect in the game according to the trajectory 1 drawn on the input surface 41, and displays information regarding the generated benefit (bonus information 4a) on an output unit. Output to 17.

The point granting unit (granting function) 14 grants points in accordance with granting conditions, one of which is the number of puzzles 6 that satisfy the above-mentioned predetermined conditions. Further, the point granting unit 14 performs the following according to the granting conditions that further include at least one of the number of characters 7a displayed on the puzzle 6 by the display output unit 17 and the user's level. Give points. The point granting unit 14 outputs information regarding the awarded points (point information 4b) to the point determining unit 16.

When the puzzle determining unit 11 determines that a predetermined condition is satisfied, the puzzle changing unit (changing function) 15 deletes the selected puzzle 6 and changes the arrangement of other puzzles 6 different from the puzzle 6. . For example, the puzzle change unit 15 sequentially moves down the other puzzles 6 that are displayed higher on the screen than the puzzle 6 so that the other puzzles 6 make up for the position where the puzzle 6 was displayed. Arrange. The puzzle changing unit 15 outputs information regarding the changed puzzle arrangement (change information 4c) to the display output unit 17.

Furthermore, even when the rectangle determining unit 12 determines that the puzzles 6 are arranged, the puzzle changing unit 15 deletes the puzzles 6 and replaces them with another puzzle 6 that is different from the puzzles 6 that are arranged so as to form a rectangle. Modify the array. In this case, the puzzle changing section 15 outputs the changing information 4c to the display output section 17 and the rectangle determining section 12.

The point determination unit (point determination function) 16 determines whether the cumulative value of points awarded by the point granting unit 14 exceeds a predetermined threshold, and transmits the determined result (determination result 3c). It is output to the display output section 17.

The display output unit (display function, display unit) 17 displays a message used in the competitive game on the puzzle game screen when it is determined by the determination unit 18 (puzzle determination unit 11 or rectangle determination unit 12) that a predetermined condition is satisfied. Character 7a is displayed. For example, the display output unit 17 displays the character 7a in the vicinity of the position corresponding to the end of the trajectory 1, superimposed on the puzzle 6 (that is, on the puzzle game screen). Note that the above-mentioned "position corresponding to the end" is an example, and the display output unit 17 displays the character 7a superimposed on the puzzle 6 near an arbitrary position (for example, a starting point, an intermediate point, etc.) of the trajectory 1. can do. Further, the display output unit 17 displays the character 7a on the puzzle 6 when the point determination unit 16 determines that the point has been exceeded.

Further, the display output section 17 further displays other puzzles 6 whose arrangement has been changed by the puzzle changing section 15. The display output unit 17 generates information (display information 5b) regarding the game screen (see FIGS. 2 and 3) on which the puzzles 6 are arranged, and outputs it to the display unit 50.

The storage unit 30 is a storage device configured by an arbitrary recording medium such as a hard disk, an SSD (silicon state drive), a semiconductor memory, and a DVD, and stores game programs and data that can control the mobile terminal 100.

The display unit 50 is a device that displays a game screen. In this embodiment, display section 50 may be a liquid crystal display. Note that in FIG. 1, the input section 40 and the display section 50 are shown separately in order to clearly show the functions that they each have. However, for example, when the input unit 40 is a touch panel and the display unit 50 is a liquid crystal display, it is preferable that both are configured as one unit.

[Game screen details]
As described above with reference to FIG. 2(a), by tracing the input surface 41 with a finger, the user creates a trajectory 1 that vertically, horizontally, or diagonally connects a plurality of puzzles 6 having the same color/pattern. If drawn, the mobile terminal 100 erases (deletes) the plurality of puzzles 6 and changes the arrangement of the other puzzles 6.

The mobile terminal 100 performs the following depending on (1) the number of puzzles 6, (2) the number of characters 7a of the same type already displayed on the puzzles 6, and/or (3) the level of the user. , points are added for each character 7a. That is, as displayed at the bottom of the game screen D1 shown in FIG. 2(a), the user can select a plurality of characters 7a. The mobile terminal 100 adds the above points to the accumulated points of the currently selected character 7a. Note that in FIG. 2(a), the accumulated points of the character 7a are indicated by a gauge G. Further, the number of characters 7a that have appeared may be displayed near the gauge G.

When the gauge G becomes full (accumulated points exceed a predetermined threshold), the mobile terminal 100 displays the currently selected character 7a at the location last traced by the user (near the end point 8b). (See FIG. 2(b)). When the enemy character 7b enters the range set for each character 7a, the character 7a takes a predetermined action against the enemy character 7b (for example, approaches the enemy character 7b and slashes it with a sword, (e.g., shooting an arrow at the enemy character 7b, stopping the progress of the enemy character 7b with a shield, throwing the enemy character 7b away, etc.)

That is, the user selects the optimal character 7a according to the position of the enemy character 7b in the puzzle 6 and the characteristics of each character 7a, considers the position where the character 7a should be displayed, and then deletes the character. It is necessary to decide how to draw the trajectory 1 including the plurality of puzzles 6 to be solved. Therefore, the mobile terminal 100 can provide a highly entertaining and strategic game in which puzzles and character battles are linked.

The mobile terminal 100 provides an enemy character preview area P on the game screen D1, and can notify the user of the number and types of enemy characters 7b that will arrive at the puzzle 6 in the enemy character preview area P. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can force the user to respond to the enemy characters 7b that arrive one after another, thereby giving the user a sense of urgency in the game.

By tapping item button B, the user can select and use a predetermined item. The items include (1) stopping the movement of the enemy character 7b, (2) changing the arrangement to make it easier to erase the puzzle 6, (3) causing damage to the enemy, and (4) the number of selectable characters 7a. (5) double the points obtained by erasing puzzle 6, (6) lower the predetermined threshold for displaying character 7a, (7) give experience points to character 7a, etc. Contains items that give the effect of That is, the mobile terminal 100 can lower the threshold for playing the game and widen the range of users by providing the user with items that allow the game to be played advantageously.

The user's current level is shown in level display L. The level increases according to the score (indicated by the score display S) obtained by the user as the user plays the game. Note that the mobile terminal 100 can present past scores or scores obtained by other users to the user in a viewable manner. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can stimulate the user's desire to improve in the game.

The current stage is shown in stage display W. As the user progresses through the game, the number of stages increases and the difficulty level of the game increases. The remaining number of enemy characters 7b in the current stage is shown in the remaining enemy number display E. Note that the mobile terminal 100 displays the time that has passed since the start of the game play, the number of erased puzzles 6, the number of acquired benefits, the number of defeated enemy characters 7b, and the number of defeated enemy characters 7b. This can be one of the conditions for the stage to end.

The mobile terminal 100 may be configured such that the higher the level, the more points obtained when the puzzle 6 is erased. Similarly, the mobile terminal 100 may increase the number of points as the number of erased puzzles 6 increases, or the number of characters 7a displayed on top of the puzzles 6 increases. It may be made to decrease. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can further enhance the interest and strategy of the game.

The display mode of each character 7a may be controlled depending on how the puzzle 6 is erased. For example, the mobile terminal 100 selects the type of character 7a and the number of characters 7a according to the puzzle 6 selected by the user's touch operation and determined to satisfy a predetermined condition (depending on how the puzzle 6 is erased). At least one of them can be determined and controlled.

Furthermore, the mobile terminal 100 can limit the total number of characters 7a under predetermined conditions. For example, the mobile terminal 100 may set an upper limit on the total number of characters 7a that can be displayed within a predetermined period of time (for example, within 5 minutes), or may set an upper limit on the total number of characters 7a that can be displayed in one stage. good.

Furthermore, the mobile terminal 100 can limit the number of selectable character types 7a under predetermined conditions. For example, the mobile terminal 100 can limit the number of types of characters 7a that can be selected in a certain stage to five types. In this case, before starting the play of the stage, the user can specify the character 7a that can be selected in the play of the stage from among the available characters 7a.

Furthermore, by erasing the puzzle 6, the user can directly give a predetermined effect to the enemy character 7b. For example, when the user erases the puzzle 6 using a predetermined combination, effects such as suppressing the movement of the enemy character 7b and erasing the enemy character 7b located above the puzzle 6 along with the puzzle 6, It can be given to the enemy character 7b.

[Puzzle rectangle deletion]
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a game screen D2 that is displayed when a predetermined number or more of puzzles 6 having the same color and pattern are arranged adjacent to each other vertically and horizontally. As shown in FIG. 3, when a predetermined number (for example, six) or more puzzles 6 are arranged adjacent to each other vertically and horizontally, so that the puzzles 6 form a rectangle 2, the mobile terminal 100 performs a predetermined effect ( For example, by blinking), the puzzle 6 is displayed. In this case, the user can erase the puzzle 6 by simply tapping the puzzle 6 (giving the end point 8b to the input surface 41) without tracing the input surface 41.

When the accumulated points of the currently selected character 7a exceeds a predetermined threshold due to the deletion, and the mobile terminal 100 displays the character 7a on the puzzle 6, the mobile terminal 100 displays the character 7a on the puzzle 6. The character 7a can be made to appear from the place where the character 7a disappears (for example, the center of the rectangle 2).

When the rectangle determining unit 12 determines that the puzzles after the arrangement has been changed are further arranged to form a rectangle 2, the puzzle changing unit 15 further changes the arrangement of the puzzles 6. In other words, puzzles that meet the conditions are erased one after another so as to be linked to the first erase. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can provide the user with an exhilarating feeling of seeing the puzzle disappear from the game screen all at once.

Note that the rectangle 2 shown in FIG. 3 is only shown for convenience in the above explanation. That is, the mobile terminal 100 may or may not display the rectangle 2 on the actual game screen.

[Character's personality]
Different parameters (hit points, attack power, defense power, attack range, movement speed, movement range, etc.) may be set for the characters 7a that can be selected by the user. Further, as described above, the actions of the character 7a against the enemy character 7b may be different from each other. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can further enhance the strategic nature of the game.

For example, the user is required to select a character 7a that shoots an arrow against an enemy character 7b that is dangerous if approached, and display the character 7a in a position far from the enemy character 7b, thereby making the user remotely attack the enemy character 7b. . Alternatively, there is a need for a strategy in which the enemy character 7b, which has high hit points and takes a long time to defeat, is attacked by the character 7a, which has a high attack power, while the character 7a uses a shield to stop the progress of the enemy character 7b. It will be done.

In this way, the mobile terminal 100 displays the character 7a and the enemy character 7b superimposed on the puzzle 6 so as to integrate the area where the puzzle is displayed and the area where the character battle process is displayed. It is possible to provide a highly entertaining and strategic game that is linked to character battles.

Note that the cumulative value of points required for making the character 7a appear may also be different for each character 7a. For example, the stronger the character 7a, the more accumulated points may be required. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can properly maintain the game balance.

Similarly, different parameters may be set for each enemy character 7b. Further, the types of movable puzzles 6 may be different for each enemy character 7b. For example, the enemy character 7b drawn in blue can move only on the puzzle 6 drawn in blue. As a result, the mobile terminal 100 can make a variety of enemy characters 7b appear, and therefore can provide a game that is more interesting and strategic.

[Benefits depending on how you erase the puzzle]
The mobile terminal 100 can provide the user with a privilege that provides a predetermined effect in the game in response to a touch operation that draws a trajectory 1 on the input surface 41. For example, if a trajectory 1 is drawn that connects a puzzle 6 located at the bottom of the game screen to a puzzle 6 located at the top of the game screen, the mobile terminal 100 can The movement speed of the character 7a may be increased.

Alternatively, if a trajectory 1 is drawn that connects a puzzle 6 located on the left side of the game screen to a puzzle 6 located on the right side of the game screen, the mobile terminal 100 can The attack power of the character 7a may be increased.

Furthermore, the mobile terminal 100 may change the parameters of the character 7a according to the colors and patterns (attributes) of the plurality of erased puzzles 6. For example, if the erased puzzle 6 is red, the mobile terminal 100 can increase the attack power of the character 7a displayed above the puzzle 6.

[Other configurations]
When a game ending condition (for example, the enemy character 7b advances to the bottom of the game screen) is about to be met, the mobile terminal 100 can apply a predetermined effect to the game screen. For example, the mobile terminal 100 can display the game screen in a blinking manner. Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can make the user strongly aware that the game is about to end, and can give the user a sense of crisis.

Further, the mobile terminal 100 can arrange predetermined obstacles instead of the puzzle 6 or overlapping the puzzle 6. For example, the mobile terminal 100 can arrange fences, swamps, ponds, mines, ice, etc. that obstruct the movement of the enemy character 7b.

In this case, for example, the enemy character 7b having the ability to fly may be able to freely move on the puzzle 6 regardless of whether or not the obstacles are arranged. Furthermore, the enemy character 7b that steps into the swamp can be swallowed by the swamp and disappear. On the other hand, the enemy character 7b who can use magic may freeze the swamp or pond that is impossible for the enemy character 7b who does not have the ability to fly, thereby making the swamp or pond passable. can. Here, when the character 7a or the enemy character 7b moves on a frozen swamp or pond, the course may change randomly. Furthermore, the user can also change the arrangement of the obstacles by performing a touch operation.

Furthermore, the above-mentioned obstacle itself can constitute the puzzle 6. For example, if the user traces the input surface 41 to draw a trajectory 1 connecting a plurality of swamps, the swamp can be erased. Alternatively, if the trajectory 1 is drawn so as to connect a plurality of fences, the fence can be changed into a strong fence. Furthermore, a plurality of the obstacles may exist at the same coordinates. For example, the mobile terminal 100 can place a structure such as a bridge over a swamp, or place a swamp under ice.

In this way, by configuring puzzles and/or characters in various variations, the mobile terminal 100 can provide a more interesting and strategic game in which puzzles and character battles are linked.

The mobile terminal 100 can provide experience points to the character 7a as the game progresses. When the cumulative value of the experience values exceeds a predetermined threshold, the level of the character 7a increases (the character 7a grows). The higher the level of the character 7a, the more the mobile terminal 100 can change the parameters (hit points, attack power, defense power, attack range, movement speed, movement range, etc.) of the character 7a.

Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can give the user the pleasure of raising the character 7a. Therefore, the mobile terminal 100 can further provide the user with a sense of immersion in the game.

[Processing executed by mobile terminal 100]
FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a process executed by the mobile terminal 100.

The input control unit 42 determines whether trajectory 1 has been input to the input surface 41 (step 1, hereinafter "step" will be abbreviated as "S"). If it is determined that the input has been made (YES in S1), the input control unit 42 acquires the trajectory 1 (S2). Next, the puzzle determining unit 11 determines whether or not the plurality of puzzles 6 selected according to the trajectory 1 satisfy a predetermined condition (S3, determination step), and if it is determined that the puzzles 6 satisfy a predetermined condition (S3 (YES), the puzzle changing unit 15 erases (deletes) the plurality of puzzles 6 included in the trajectory 1 and changes the arrangement of the other puzzles 6 (S5).

On the other hand, the rectangle determining unit 12 determines whether a predetermined number or more of puzzles 6 are arranged to form a rectangle (S4). If it is determined that the puzzle 6 is configured (YES in S4), the puzzle changing unit 15 deletes the puzzle 6 included in the rectangle and changes the arrangement of other puzzles 6 that are different from the puzzle 6 (S5).

The point granting unit 14 grants points according to the number of puzzles 6 erased by the puzzle changing unit 15 (S6), and the point determining unit 16 determines whether the cumulative value of points exceeds a predetermined threshold. It is determined whether or not there is one (S7). If the number is exceeded (YES in S7), the display output unit 17 displays the character 7a currently selected by the user on the puzzle 6 (S8, display step). The benefit generation unit 13 can generate a benefit that provides a predetermined effect in the game according to the trajectory 1 (S9).

[Example of implementation using software]
The control block (in particular, the control unit 10) of the mobile terminal 100 may be realized by a logic circuit (hardware) formed on an integrated circuit (IC chip) or the like, or may be realized by software using a CPU (Central Processing Unit). It may be realized by In the latter case, the mobile terminal 100 includes a CPU that executes instructions of a game program that is software that implements each function, and a ROM (Read Only Memory) in which the game program and various data are recorded so as to be readable by the computer (or CPU). ) or a storage device (these are collectively referred to as a "recording medium"), a RAM (Random Access Memory) for developing the game program, and the like.
