Then, the correctness of the selected answer candidate is determined, and if the answer is correct, the correct answer is displayed (S4 to S6). Since one key signature has two types of answers, a major key and a parallel minor key, answer candidate scroll windows 91 and 92 are formed corresponding to each of the two keys.

FIGS. 68 to 71 show another embodiment in which a rhythm pattern is created using a note card.
First, as shown in FIG. 68, the image of each note card 74 is converted into an image pattern (74c, 74d, 7) for creating a rhythm.
4e, 74f). Specifically, the entire note card is composed of a note card having a market value equal to or longer than a quarter note (or rest: hereinafter, also referred to as a note including a rest), and The image is divided into two groups including cards of short notes (for example, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, etc.), and the image (74c:
Hereinafter, it is referred to as a full-width card). On the other hand, for the latter, a conversion for further reducing the card width by half is added (74d: hereinafter, referred to as a half-width card). At this time, the size of the note is not reduced in the card width direction, but may be reduced. 74c and 74d are used when playing a keyboard such as a piano.
Although the right-hand note pattern (note head 74i is downward) is shown, note patterns for left hand (note head 74i is upward) 74e and 74f can be prepared. In addition, if necessary, a blank card (74 g for full width,
And half width 74h) can also be used. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 69, it is also possible to use a card in which a plurality of notes are displayed on one sheet. In this case, however, the above-mentioned case depends on whether the total value of the notes is longer or shorter than a quarter note. Similar image conversion is performed.

Hereinafter, the question processing using the card image will be described with reference to a flowchart (FIG. 72). That is, as shown in FIG.
5 is substantially the same as that shown in FIG.
In the upper part, an area 73a for the right hand is formed, and in the lower part, an area 73b for the left hand is formed.
By selecting the time signature card 72 by scroll selection in 4a (S1), each area 73a, 73b is
Each bar 73d is further divided into bars 73d at 3c.
The beats are separated by a card placement area 73e corresponding to the number of beats of one measure of the beat specified by the beat card 72 (S2).

Here, the card placement area 73e has substantially the same width as one full-width card, and two half-width cards can be arranged side by side.
Then, in the card scroll windows 474b to 474d (474d for blank cards) formed on the lower side of the screen S, the cards 74 are sequentially selected by mouse clicking so that the rhythm of the specified time signature is formed. Then, the images of those cards are moved and displayed in the right-handed answer area 73a in the selected order in the respective card placement areas 73e in the order of their selection through the above-described image conversion (S4 to S6). When the area 73a for the right hand is completely filled, the area 73b for the left hand is sequentially filled. The right hand area 73a and the left hand area 7
3b may be omitted to create a rhythm with only one hand.

Next, in the card arrangement area 73e, the market value is 4
When a note card longer than a minute note (for example, a half note) is arranged, a blank card 74g or 74h is arranged in the subsequent card arrangement area 73e. In this case, the total value of the note card 74 and the subsequent blank card 74g or 74h is the market value of the note indicated on the note card 74 when the width of the full-width card corresponds to the market value of one quarter note. 74g of blank card to represent
Alternatively, the number of arrangements of 74h is adjusted.

When the area 73 is completely filled with the image of the card 74 in this way, it is determined whether or not the completed rhythm is correct (S8), and if correct, a correct answer is displayed (S9). Here, by pressing the "sound output" button 474e during rhythm creation by card selection, the synthesized rhythm sound pattern is synthesized by the synthesizer 19 (FIG. 1), and this is synthesized from the speaker 30 (FIG. 1). You may comprise so that it may output at any time. Further, the sound pattern of the rhythm may be automatically output from the speaker 30 when the rhythm is completed. FIG. 70 shows 4 /
FIG. 71 (a) shows an example of a solution in a case where quadruple is specified.
Is an answer example when the 6/8 time signature is selected.
Further, in the above example, based on whether the market value of the note shown on the card 74 is longer or shorter than the market value of the quarter note,
Although the card width after the image conversion is determined, the card width may be determined depending on whether it is longer or shorter than the market value of one beat of the specified time signature. In this case, for example, when a 6/8 time signature is designated as shown in FIG.
Since an eighth note has one beat, a note whose market value is equal to or longer than an eighth note is represented by a full-width card, and a note shorter than the eighth note is also represented by a half-width card. In this case, in the flowchart of FIG. 72A, S4 is replaced with that shown in FIG.

Next, FIG. 24 to FIG. 39 mainly show examples of questions using images of sound cards and examples of answers to the questions. FIG.
In 4, the tonality 93 is designated, the key signature representing the tonality is designated by the music card 96, and the tonality is designated by the sound card 9.
There is a question answered by 7. The processing flow in that case is as shown in FIG. That is, the contents of the question (in this case, tonality 93) are displayed on the screen S in characters or the like (S1), and scroll windows 94 and 95 for each of the music card and the sound card are formed. Then, the solver scroll-selects the images 96 and 97 of the respective cards considered to correspond to the answer (S
2, S3). Then, if the answer by the selected card is correct, the correct answer is displayed (S4 to S6). In addition,
The sound displayed on the selected card is sent to the synthesizer 19.
(FIG. 1), and may be configured to be output from the speaker 30 (FIG. 1).

The question can be set using a card image. FIG. 26 shows an example. That is, on the screen S, the key signature and the key tone indicating the original key are indicated by the music card 98 and the sound card 99, and the belonging key (or the lower key, same key key, parallel key, etc.) is indicated by the music card and the sound card. The problem of making with the use of is given. That is,
The answerer scrolls and selects the images 96 and 97 of each card considered to correspond to the answer in the music card and sound card scroll windows 94 and 95. The image of the selected card moves to the answer area 100, and if it is correct, a correct answer is displayed.

Next, the answer to the question can be made by voice input. FIG. 27 shows an example thereof, and FIG. 28 shows a flow of the processing. That is, in FIG. 27, an image of the sound card 101 is shown (S2), and there is a problem of singing the sound shown on the card by the floor name. The answerer CI uses the microphone 24 to sing and input an answer sound (S3). The input sound waveform is compared with a standard waveform based on the voice recognition standard waveform data 27 (FIG. 1), and if the waveforms match within a certain deviation range, it is determined that the answer is correct and correct answer display is performed (S4). → S5). If the deviation of the waveform is larger than a certain value, it is determined that the answer is incorrect, and the fact is displayed (S4 → S6). In FIG. 28, as in FIG. 12, processing for answering as many questions as possible is performed within a predetermined time limit.

As shown in FIG. 29, the answer to the question may be made using the keyboard image 102.
FIG. 30 shows the flow of the processing. That is, the sound card 10 indicating the sound to be played by the answerer is displayed on the screen S.
The image No. 3 is displayed for a predetermined short time and erased (S2). The solver looks at it and displays the keyboard image 1
02 key 104a corresponding to the answer
Select this by clicking the mouse (S
3: In the keyboard image 102, the position of the key at one point C is displayed by a character or the like). At the same time, the musical tone data 28 (FIG. 1) of the sound corresponding to the key is read out, sent to the synthesizer 19, and synthesized with the tone of a piano, for example, and output from the speaker 30 (S4). . That is, the above processing is based on the idea that the sound is played by hitting a key on a piano keyboard, for example. If the sound of the selected key matches the sound indicated on the sound card 103, a correct answer is displayed (S5 to S7). Instead of using the keyboard image 102, as shown in FIG. 1, a keyboard-type input device 37 simulating an actual keyboard is connected to the I / O port 11, and the key is operated to answer the questions. May be input.

As a modified example, as shown in FIG. 31, images of a plurality of sound cards 105 to 108 are displayed, and a selected one 104 of keys 104 of a keyboard image 102 is displayed.
While outputting the sound corresponding to a from the speaker 30,
The image of the sound card 108 corresponding to the key can be shown by changing the display state (for example, changing the display color). FIG. 32 shows the flow of processing in this case.
As a result, the sound played by the keyboard can be more clearly shown on the card image.

FIG. 33 shows a plurality of sound cards 110 to 11.
5 shows a problem of selecting a pair of cards of sounds having the same enharmonic relationship. The answer method in this case is shown in FIG.
And is substantially the same as that shown in FIG. FIG.
No. 4 shows the problem of displaying the images of the two sound cards 116 and 117 and asking the pitch of the sound indicated on both cards. The answerers are the scroll windows 91e and 91f.
, Answer candidates 91c (number of pitches) and 91d (pitch prefixes: “long”, “short”, “complete”, “increase”, “decrease”,
By scroll-selecting "heavy increase" and "heavy decrease"), an answer such as "minor" is created. Further, FIG. 35 (a) shows a problem in which an image of the sound card 118 is shown and the sound name is answered. In this case, the answer is selected and selected from the answer candidates 119 by mouse click. Note that the sound card 1 in FIG.
Although the image 18 is a card of the musical score series, the image of the card 118 of the musical score series may be used instead, as shown in FIG.

FIG. 36 shows an example in which the question is set using both the sound card and the audio output from the speaker 30. FIG. 37 shows the flow of the processing. That is, of the sound cards forming a certain melody, some of the sound cards are removed, and the remaining cards 120 and 1 are removed.
The image 21 is displayed (S1), and the part where the card is missing is set as the answer area 122. Next, the melody 125 is output from the speaker 30 (S2). The answerer listens to the melody, determines the sound corresponding to the missing card, and scroll-selects the card in the scroll window 123 (S3). If the selected card is correct, the correct answer is displayed (S4 to S4).
6).

FIG. 38 shows a problem in which a key is indicated by a music card 126 and a scale of a predetermined key (in the figure, D minor) using the key is created by the sound card. Respondents can see in the scroll window 123
The image of the sound card 124 forming the musical scale is scroll-selected sequentially from the lower tone side. The selected cards are displayed from the left in the order of selection in the answer area 127, and a scale is formed. On the other hand, FIG.
Is displayed, and the sound card 129 is further displayed, and the floor name of the sound of the sound card 129 in the key indicated by the music card 128 is answered. The answerer selects the floor name to be the answer from the displayed answer candidate 130 by clicking the mouse or the like and answers.

Next, FIGS. 40 to 47 mainly show an example of a question using an image of a chord card and an example of its answer. In FIG. 40, the image of the chord card 131 is displayed,
There is a problem that the chord indicated by the card is read as the floor name. The processing flow in this case is as shown in FIG. That is, the answerer displays the displayed answer candidate 13
2, the floor names 132a-1 of the sounds that make up the chord
32c is selected by a mouse click or the like (S3). Then, if all the selected floor names of the three sounds are correct, a correct answer is displayed (S4 to S6), and the synthesized sound 134 of the chord is output from the speaker 30 (S7). In FIG. 40, as in FIG. 12, etc., processing for answering as many questions as possible is performed within a predetermined time limit. Here, instead of having the floor name reading of the chord be answered, the chord name of the chord may be answered. In this case, as shown in FIG. 40 (a), code name candidates 133a are displayed in the scroll window 133, and these are sequentially scrolled as shown in FIG. 40 (b) to select an appropriate code name. It can be configured as follows. Also, as shown in FIG. 4C, the pitch names of the respective notes constituting the chord (in the figure, German pitch names)
May be answered.

As shown in FIG. 42, the image of the sound card 105 showing the chord to be played by the answerer is displayed on the screen S for a predetermined short time by the same processing as in FIG. Delete this. The examiner sees the selected key image and selects the key 104a to 104c of the key 104 of the displayed keyboard image 102 by clicking the mouse. At the same time, the musical sound data 28 (FIG. 1) of the sound corresponding to the key is read out, synthesized by the synthesizer 19, and the chord H is output from the speaker 30. If the sound of the selected key matches the chord shown on the chord card 105, a correct answer is displayed.

On the other hand, as a reverse pattern, as shown in FIG. 43, it is possible to output a chord 134 from the speaker 30 and set a question for selecting a chord card corresponding to the chord. FIG. 44 shows the flow of the processing. In this process, chord cards 135 to 137 as answer candidates are displayed on the screen S, and any one of them is selected by a mouse click to answer.

Next, FIG. 45 shows an example of a problem of completing a chord table of a specific key using a chord card. That is, a scroll window 141 and an answer area 140 are formed on the screen S, and by sequentially selecting the images of the chord card 142, the images 143 of the selected card are displayed in the answer area 140 in a predetermined order and arrangement. Will be displayed within. In the figure, card images representing the basic forms of the chords I, IV, V and V7 in C major are arranged in the horizontal direction, and the card images representing the first and second inverted forms of the chords are arranged in the vertical direction. They are arranged. The order of the arrangement is, for example, starting from the basic form of the chord I, followed by its first inversion, second inversion, and then IV
The same is repeated with the shift to the chord of
A chord that ends in the second inverted form of the chord can be employed. FIG. 46 shows the completed state. If all the arrangements of the card images 143 are correct, a correct answer is displayed. As shown in FIG. 47, I, IV, V, V
7 may be arranged so as to form a cadence by the tonic, subdominant, and dominant chord functions.

FIGS. 48 to 67 show examples in which a game based on a predetermined game rule is advanced on the screen by displaying a music card on the screen (hereinafter, the card is referred to as a "tag"). In some cases). First,
In FIG. 48, a plurality of cards (music cards) 144 and a question Q indicating the meaning or content of a specific card are displayed on the screen S, and a plurality of players answer the question 147 with a card. The game content is similar to the so-called "carta collecting", which is performed on the screen S. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of mice 18 that can be independently input are connected to a plurality of players, and as shown in FIG.
Are displayed. A plurality of pointers P1, P2,.

FIG. 50 shows the flow of the process for controlling the progress of the game. When the question 147 is displayed, each player simultaneously points his or her pointer to the intended bid 144 and clicks the mouse. (S1-S
4). The computer determines which mouse click is the earliest, and if it is correct, adds one to the score of the player, and deletes the image of the taken tag 144 from the screen S. On the other hand, when the bill is an incorrect bill, the score of the player is deducted by one point as a so-called "head", and the bill is not erased (above, S5 to S10). Such processing is performed on all tags 14
Repeat until there are no more 4's, and finally decide who wins the most bills (scores). The score of each player is displayed in the score display windows 145 and 146.

Next, FIG. 49 shows an example of playing a kind of quiz game in which images of music cards are sequentially displayed one by one, and a question using the card is set and the player is answered. Also in this case, as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of mice 18 are connected by the number of players. FIG. 51 shows the flow of the processing. That is, the image of the card 147 is displayed on the screen S, and the answer candidate 1
48a is displayed. The player sees this and simultaneously clicks the button 18a (FIG. 1) of his / her mouse 18, and the right to click the player is given an answer right (S1 to S4). For the player to whom the answer right has been given, an instruction to prompt an answer is given by the display 150 (or voice output) on the screen S, and the player gives the answer candidate 14.
Select an answer from 8a. If the answer is correct, the score of the player is added, and if the answer is incorrect, the score is deducted (above, S5 to S12). Such processing is repeated until the determined number of questions has been exhausted, and a win or loss is determined depending on the score. Note that the score is calculated in the score display windows 145 and 146.
Will be displayed. In this embodiment, the card stack 14
8 are displayed, and the image of each card 147 is displayed so as to be turned one by one sequentially from the card stack.

Next, FIG. 52 shows an example in which a kind of rock-paper-scissors game is played using a music card or a sound card. In other words, the outline is that the order of superiority is determined for a plurality of predetermined cards, cards are exchanged between the player and the computer, and the player who issues the higher card wins. For example, FIG.
Are music cards 151, 152 showing notes or rests
In this example, the player who puts out a note or rest card with a long market value wins the game, but as shown in FIG. , The player who gives the card with the sign with a stronger meaning wins, using a speed slogan music card as shown in (c),
Various modes are possible, such as a mode in which a card with a faster slogan is won, and a mode in which a card with a higher sound is used with a sound card as shown in FIG.

FIG. 53 shows the flow of the processing.
That is, the image of the player's possessed card 156 is displayed on the screen S, and an arbitrary card 156 is selected from the image.
a is selected by a mouse click or the like. The image of the selected card 156a moves to the card area 157 as the player-side battle card 151. On the other hand, possessed cards of the same type as the player are also distributed to the computer side, an arbitrary card is selected based on a random number or the like, and a card area 158 is selected as a computer-side match card 152.
(S1, S2). Then, the superiority or inferiority relationship of the selected card is determined, and the player who places the higher card wins and the points are added, and the points are displayed in the respective score display windows 153 and 154 (S3 to S5). This process is repeated until there are no more cards, and the one who scores more in the end wins. In the above embodiment, the device user plays one player, and the computer plays the role of an opponent player. However, it is also possible to use both devices as the device user. In this case, a plurality of mice 18 and monitors 20 are provided, and each player's possessed card 156 is displayed on the screen S of each mouse.

FIG. 54 shows an example of a screen S of a card game using a sound card (here, it is named "speed by note"). The way of playing "rule with note" will be described together with the flow of its internal processing with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, the number of players is two in this example, and the mouse 18 and the monitor 20 are prepared for the number of players. When the game is started, a screen S of each player is opened from a stack 160, 161 of a predetermined number of cards distributed to each player, two decks 162, 163, and stacks 160, 161 respectively. The images of the cards 164 and 165 of the respective players are displayed (S
1, S2). Note that, on the screen S, the player's own
4 is at the bottom of the screen, and the opponent's deck 165 is the deck 162, 16
3 are displayed on the upper side of the screen. The sound card is
Either one of the G-staff-series cards and the F-staff-series cards may be used, or both may be used in combination.

Both players have two decks 162, 1
With respect to 63, one's own place cards 164 to 165 satisfying certain conditions can be stacked one after another. As a method of moving the tags for stacking, the pointer P is positioned with the mouse 18 to the place tag 164a to be placed,
With the mouse button 18a (FIG. 1) pressed, the mouse 20
Is moved so that the bill 164a moves on the screen S in accordance with the movement of the mouse 20.
Then, when the place tag 164a moves to a position overlapping the deck 162 or 163, the moving process is completed by releasing the pressed state of the mouse button 18a.

The stacked cards become the next stock (S5). The types of tags that can be stacked are, for example, as shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, a card 166 of the same sound as the sound shown on the deck 162, a card 167 of a sound adjacent to the upper and lower sides (continuous sound),
168, or cards 169 and 170 having a pitch relationship of octave. The wrong bill is pushed back to the bill area (S17). Both players can place cards on any of the decks 162 and 163, but if both players try to place cards on the same deck at the same time, the first-come-first-served basis is won. And if the playing cards 164 and 165 are not enough, the card stack 1
The game is continued by replenishing the next card from 60, 161 and finally, the one in which all the card stacks and the bills are gone first wins (S6 to S16). The next replenishment of the bill may be performed manually by clicking the mouse on the card stacks 160, 161 or the like, or may be performed automatically by the computer.

FIG. 57 shows an example of a screen S of another card game using a sound card (here, it is named "arrangement"). As the cards, one set (or two sets) of a musical staff series card and a musical staff series card are used, and a plurality of players (three players in this embodiment) can be used. Further, the mouse 18 and the monitor 20 are prepared for the number of persons. The way of playing (the rule) of this “arrangement” will be described together with the flow of its internal processing with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

When the game is started, first, all cards are distributed so that the same number of cards are spread to each player as much as possible (S1). The cards 170 distributed to each player 20 are displayed on their own screens S. Each player receives a single note B for the G-staff series card ("C" in C major scale reading, hereinafter referred to as "C" card) in the handout 170, and If each of the two (non-point) two-tone cards (hereinafter referred to as “re” card) is included, the card is selected by mouse click or the like (S2).

The images of the selected cards 171 and 172 move to the vicinity of substantially the center of the placing area 173 formed on the screen S (S3). Then, in the following, for each of the above-mentioned "shi" card or "re" card, if there is a sound card following the upper side, to the right thereof, if there is a sound card following the lower side, to the left thereof, The bills are selected by mouse click or the like and sequentially placed (S7 to S9). Note that the card to be placed must be a sound card that always follows the sound of the already placed card, and a card with a skipped sound cannot be placed.

Here, if there is no tag to be placed, it becomes a pass,
By performing a predetermined pass input from a keyboard or the like, the number of lights of the pass indicator 174 of the player on the screen is increased by one (S7, S14, S16). When the number of passes reaches a certain number of times, for example, three times, the player is disqualified, a notice of defeat is displayed on a screen or the like, and the player's hand is spit out, and is the card having the following sound? Regardless of whether or not, place 1
73 is moved and displayed at a predetermined position (S17). on the other hand,
If all the cards have been successfully put out without disqualification, the player wins and the victory display is displayed on the screen S (S10, S11). In addition,
If a winning player or a losing player occurs on the way, the order of the players is skipped, and the competition is continued (S6 → S12). Note that the processing may be performed so that the role of some players is performed by the computer.

In the card game shown in FIG. 59, a plurality of pairs of music cards of the same type forming a pair and one unpaired music card ("Joker" or "Baba")
Is used. The number of players is plural (three in this embodiment), and the corresponding number of mice 18 and monitors 20 are prepared. In this embodiment, a chord card is used, and the name of the game is, for example, "chord babanuki". The method of playing the "chord babanuki" will be described together with the flow of its internal processing with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

First, when the game is started, all cards are distributed so that the same number of cards are distributed to each player as much as possible (S1). As shown in FIG. The hand of the player is displayed face up, and the hand of the player located on the upstream side is displayed face down (S2). As shown in FIG. 59 (a), each player is a player on the upstream side (hereinafter referred to as a "player").
After that, one card is selected by mouse click, the card is picked out, the card is set as one's own hand, and then the operation of causing the downstream player to pick out the hand is performed in turn. That is, in FIG. 59 (a), the arrows indicate the flow of the bills, A receives the bills from B, B receives the bills from C, and C receives the bills from A. A is C, C is B, and B is B. Hand the bills to A (S4).

Then, as shown in FIG. 59 (b), if the same tag 175b as the extracted tag 175a is present in the holding 175, these tags 175a and 175b are erased as a pair, and the number of hands is reduced. Eventually, if all the bills disappear, the player wins (S7 → S10 and S14 → S15). When the winning player exits, the numbers of the remaining players are advanced (S1
1, S16), the competition is continued. Then, only one unpaired bill is included in the card as a joker, and at the end of the winning players leaving one by one, as shown in FIG. Joker 176 will remain in the hands of one player. This player becomes the final loser, and that effect is displayed on the screen S (S13, S18).

In the card game shown in FIG. 61 and FIG. 62 (namely, tentatively called “light idiot”), for example, the basic form, the first turn form, and the second turn form of the same code are combined into one set. Used chord cards are used for the number of players in the game. The number of players is plural (four in this embodiment)
And the corresponding number of mice 18 and monitors 20
Is prepared. In the following, how to play "light idiot" will be described together with the flow of its internal processing with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

First, equal numbers (three in this case) of cards are distributed to each player, and as shown in FIG.
On each player's screen S, the distributed card 180
And one less (three in this embodiment) images of the chips 182 than the total number of players (S
1, S2). Then, each player can use the unnecessary bill 180
b is selected all at once by mouse click or the like. Then
As shown in FIG. 61, the unnecessary tag 180b moves to the screen of the downstream player, and instead, the tag 180a from the upstream player appears on the screen S, and the number of displayed tags is three. The number of sheets is maintained (S3, S4).
This operation can be performed on any player's card as shown in FIG.
As shown in (b), the basic form of a certain chord chord 180
c, the first revolving shape 180d and the second revolving shape 180e are repeated until three sheets are obtained.

The player who has the above-mentioned three cards obtains the right to acquire a chip, and can take this by clicking the chip 182 on the screen S with the mouse. The image of the chip 182 taken is the screen S of all players.
Deleted from Then, the right to obtain chips is automatically given to the other players regardless of whether the cards are collected or not, and when it is noticed that at least one chip 182 has disappeared from the screen S, the first player wins all at once. Then, a chip 182 is picked up by a mouse click. Here, since the number of chips is one less than the number of players, one player who cannot take chips 182 occurs, and that player loses the round, and the number of lighting of the defeat indicator 181 on the screen S ( Alternatively, the number of displayed images increases by one (S5 to S10). Hereinafter, such a game round is repeated. In this embodiment, the defeat indicator 1
81 is “U”, “SU”, “NO”, “RO”, “BA”,
It is composed of six characters of "K", and when losing, increases by one character. Then, when all of the above six characters are aligned in the defeat indicator 181 of a certain player, the final defeat is notified to the player by a screen display, and the competition ends (S11, S12). It should be noted that instead of the combination of the basic form, the first turning form, and the second turning type chord card, another combination, for example, I, IV, V, V
In this case, a game mode using four cards 7 as one set (in this case, each player has four cards) or a game mode using a combination of cards other than chord cards is also possible.

The card game shown in FIG. 64 (name: tentatively called “nervous breakdown”) is played by using a plurality of pairs of the same kind of music cards that are paired with each other. The number of players is two or more (in the present embodiment, the case of two players is taken as an example), and the mouse 18 is prepared for the number of players, but the screen is common. The following describes how to play this nervous breakdown (rule) together with the flow of its internal processing, with reference to the flowchart in FIG. The way of playing this game is very simple. That is, as shown in FIG. 64A, all the cards 183 are displayed upside down (S1), and the player selects two cards by clicking the mouse. The selected card 183a is opened and displayed face up (S2). Then, if the two cards 183a are the same card, the card is deleted from the screen S as shown in FIG. 64 (b), and the score of the player is added. On the other hand, if it is a different card, the card is turned over again and no score is added (S3 to S
5). The score of each player is displayed in the score display windows 184 and 185. Such a process is repeated between the two players until the displayed card is exhausted (S6 to S10 → S2), and the player who finally obtains more points wins.

FIG. 66 shows an example of a card-type sugoroku game which can be realized by the system of the present invention. In the following, how to play with the flow of internal processing will be described using the flowchart of FIG. First, on a screen S of the monitor 20 (FIG. 1), a two-sided board 200 having a plurality of squares 201 arranged in a predetermined order, starting from a start area 202 to an ascending (Fine) area 203, is displayed on the squares 201. Frames 204 of the players moving sequentially and images of the music card stacks 206 to 209 are displayed (S1). At this time, all the frames 204 are in the start area 202.

Further, on the screen S, the player's frame 2 is displayed.
The image of the dice 211 that determines the number of moving squares in 04 is
It is shown together with the image of the start button 212. The player places the pointer P on the start button 212 with the mouse 18 and clicks on the pointer P, and the image of the dice 211 starts to change, and an eye determined based on random numbers generated by a known random number generation process. The image change is stopped at the position (S5 to S6: this operation is hereinafter referred to as "rolling a dice"). Then, the player's tops 204 are displayed in the number of squares 20
It moves above 0 (S6). In this way, each player alternately rolls the dice in a predetermined order and advances the pieces on the board.

Here, each cell 201 shows an instruction for selecting any one of the card stacks 206 to 209 and answering a question using that card. The types of card stacks used in the present embodiment are sound cards (g and f), chord cards (g and f), and music cards. It is as follows. Text: Choose a text card and answer its meaning.
