Accordingly, the user may determine whether to apply for the match mode in the corresponding room with reference to information set in the first 2030 match 1-1 (811-1).

Up to now, the golf game service provided by the golf game system 1000 has been described in more detail through various embodiments according to the present invention. Hereinafter, a control method for the game server 200 of the golf game system 1000 according to the present invention will be described in detail.

9 is a flowchart of a control method for a game server of a golf game system according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 9 , the game server 200 receives a golf game use request message from the user terminal device 100 logged into the game server 200 , the user terminal device 100 for golf game use. The authentication data is requested and received (S910). When the authentication data is received, the game server 200 determines whether the user can use the points (S920)

Here, the authentication data may include at least one of user identification information, terminal identification information, and game use time information, and the user terminal device 100 uses the encryption key generated by the game server 200 during the initial registration process. Thus, the authentication data may be encrypted and transmitted to the game server 200 . Accordingly, the game server 200 decrypts the authentication data using the encryption key previously generated in relation to the corresponding user terminal device 100 , and then acquires game use time information included in the decrypted authentication data.

Thereafter, the game server 200 calculates the use points from the game use time information, and determines whether the pre-calculated use points can be deducted from the user's remaining points. As a result of the determination, if it is possible to deduct from the user's remaining points, the game server 200 subtracts the points used for the game use time requested by the user from the user's remaining points (S930).

Meanwhile, if it is impossible to deduct the user's remaining points, the game server 200 transmits a service unavailable message to the user terminal device 100 . When the service unavailable message is received, the user terminal device 100 generates payment information for using a golf game according to a user command and transmits it to the game server 200 . Accordingly, the game server 200 may generate a point corresponding to the payment amount included in the payment information received from the user terminal device 100 and use the generated point as the generated point. When the point generation is completed, the game server 200 may deduct the used points with the pre-generated points.

After the points used for the game use time requested by the user are deducted from the remaining points of the user through this embodiment, the game server 200 receives golf game information from the user terminal device 100, the received golf game A game mode requested by the user is determined from the information (S940).

As a result of the determination, if the game mode requested by the user is the farming mode for golf practice, the game server 200 pays the set points corresponding to the preset golf practice time (S950 and S960). For example, when the user practiced golf for 30 minutes, which is a preset reference time at the driving range, the game server 200 may pay n points.

On the other hand, if the game mode requested by the user is a match mode for a match with another online user, the game server 200 adds or subtracts the bet points for each hole from the points held by the user based on the win/loss result for each hole. (S970, S980). For example, n points may be bet on the first hole, and three users (users a to c) may compete. When user a among the three users records the smallest number of strokes in the first hole, the game server 200 combines the betting points of user b and user c into the points of user a, and the remaining points of user b and user c respectively. bet points can be deducted from

On the other hand, if the game mode requested by the user is the challenge mode, the game server 200 adds or subtracts the mission points calculated based on the bet points for each golf mission and the point multiple value set for each golf mission from the points held by the user. (S990, S995).

For example, if the user succeeds in the hole-in-one mission, the game server 200 determines the final value obtained by multiplying the point bet by the user by the point multiple value set in relation to the hole-in-one mission as the point paid to the user, and the determined point can be combined with the user's existing points. On the other hand, when the user does not succeed in the hole-in-one mission, the game server 200 may deduct the user's remaining points as much as the user's bet points.

10 is a flowchart of a method of registering with a game server providing a golf game service in a user terminal device according to the present invention.
