[2. Overview of the game]

In the game system 1 , the game is executed by executing the program in the user terminal 10 . In the game system 1, it is possible to execute various games. For example, sports games (games based on baseball, soccer, tennis, American football, basketball, volleyball, etc.), adventure games, simulation games, role-playing games, or upbringing games, regardless of game format or genre It is possible to run various games.

Hereinafter, as an example of a game executed in the game system 1, a first game in which the first parameter of the first game object is changed or set based on a user's operation, and a second game in which the first game object is used Describe the game. Each of the first game and the second game may be a part of any one game or may be separate as a game. That is, the part of the game executed by any one game program may be each of the first game and the second game, the first game being executed by the first game program, and the second game being executed by the second game program. This may be the second game.

Here, before describing the details of the first game and the second game having the above characteristics, terms such as “game object” and “parameter” will be described.

A "game object" is, for example, an object that can be manipulated, instructed, used, or nurtured in a game. In addition, a "game object" is provided to a user in a game, for example. Specifically, for example, a game character, a game item, or a game card corresponds to an example of a "game object".

A "first game object" is a target game object for which the user changes or sets the first parameter. For example, the "first game object" is a game object for which the user improves the ability (performance). For example, a "first game object" is a game character to be developed by the user.

The "first parameter" is, for example, a capability parameter related to the capability (performance) of the first game object. In addition, the "ability parameter" may be, for example, information indicating the magnitude or level of the ability, or information indicating the presence or absence of a specific ability. In addition, the "first parameter" may be a state parameter related to the state (condition) of the first game object. In addition, a "state parameter" is information indicating good state, for example. In addition, when the first game object is a game character, the "first parameter" may be information indicating a characteristic of the first game object. In addition, the "first parameter" is a level parameter related to the strength (level) of the first game object. A "level parameter" is, for example, information indicating the magnitude of a level. In addition, the "first parameter" may be information indicating the ability or the like by a numerical value or flag, or may be information indicating the ability or the like by a symbol (including characters).

"Changing or setting a 1st parameter" means changing a value of a 1st parameter, or determining (determining) a value of a 1st parameter. For example, when the first parameter is a numerical value, increasing or decreasing the numerical value corresponds to "changing the first parameter", and determining with the increased or decreased numerical value is equivalent to "setting the first parameter" considerable Also, for example, when the first parameter is a flag, changing the on/off (validation/invalidation) of the flag corresponds to "changing the first parameter", and determining with the changed value is the "first parameter". 1 It is equivalent to “setting a parameter”. Further, for example, when the first parameter is a preference, changing the current preference to another preference corresponds to "changing the first parameter", and determining with the other preference is "setting the first parameter" equivalent to

A "first game" is a game whose main purpose is to change or set a 1st parameter, for example. The "first game" is not limited to a game whose purpose is only to change or set the first parameter, and may be a game whose purpose is to change or set the first parameter. For example, the "first game" is a training game in which the first game object is nurtured.

In other words, the "first game" can be said to be a game in which the user aims to set the first parameter of the first game object to a desired state. A "desired state" is a state in which the first parameter is a predetermined value or a predetermined value or more. For example, the "desired state" is a state in which the ability is the highest within the range that the ability parameter can take, or a state in which the ability is higher than or equal to the standard. For example, when the ability parameter changes from 0 to 99, the state in which the ability is the highest is the state in which the ability parameter is the highest value of 99. The state in which the capability is equal to or greater than the reference is a state in which the capability parameter is equal to or greater than a threshold (eg, 80). Also, for example, the "desired state" is a state in which the ability parameter indicates that the user has a specific ability. In addition, the "desired state" is a state in which the state is the best state or the standard or more within the range that the state parameter can take. For example, when the state parameter takes any one of a plurality of states (for example, five best, good, normal, bad, and worst), the best state means the best state among these states of the plurality of stages. to be. A standard or higher is a state of a standard level or higher (eg, good or higher). Moreover, for example, a "desired state" is a state in which a state parameter indicates a specific state. In addition, the "desired state" is a state in which the personality is the best or higher than the standard within the range that the personality parameter can take. For example, if the personality parameter takes any one of multiple levels of personality (eg, 5 best, good, normal, bad, and worst), the best personality is the best personality among these multiple levels of personality. to be. The standard or higher is a characteristic of the standard level or higher (eg, good or higher). Further, for example, the “desired state” is a state in which a personality parameter indicates a specific personality. Moreover, for example, a "desired state" is a state equal to or higher than the highest level or a reference level within the range that the level parameter can take. For example, when the level parameter changes from 0 to 99, the highest level is a state of 99 in which the level parameter is the highest value. The state equal to or higher than the reference level is a state in which the level parameter is equal to or higher than a threshold (eg, 80).

The "first game" may be a game in which each parameter of a plurality of first game objects is changed or set. That is, in the "first game", there may be not only one, but a plurality of first game objects that can change or set the first parameter. For example, the user may repeatedly play the "first game", and it may be possible to change or set the 1st parameter of a new 1st game object for every play.

In the present embodiment, the "first game" is a game in which a game effect related to the change or setting of the first parameter is generated based on the second game object. In other words, the "first game" is a game in which an advantageous effect occurs in setting the first parameter to a desired state based on the second game object.

A "second game object" is a game object different from the first game object. The "second game object" is, for example, a game object for generating an effect for generating a game effect related to the change or setting of the first parameter in the game. The "second game object" may be a game object of the same type as the first game object, or may be a game object of a different type. For example, when the "first game object" is a game character, the "second game object" may be a game item. A second parameter is associated with the second game object.

A "second parameter" is a level parameter regarding the intensity|strength (level) of a 2nd game object, for example. For example, a level parameter is a numerical value, a symbol, etc. which show the magnitude of a level. For example, the "second parameter" is a sparsity parameter related to the sparsity of the second game object. For example, the rarity parameter is a numerical value, symbol, or the like indicating the magnitude of the rarity. For example, the "second parameter" is a capability parameter related to the capability (performance) of the second game object. The meaning of the capability parameter is the same as that described in the first parameter. The "second parameter" may be changed or set based on a user's operation, or may be restricted so that it cannot be changed. For example, the second parameter may be changed or set when the user performs an operation for strengthening the second game object.

"Effect on the 1st game regarding the change or setting of a 1st parameter" means, for example, to generate an effect advantageous for changing or setting a 1st parameter in a 1st game. For example, an event for changing or setting the first parameter is generated, or a game item for changing or setting the first parameter is given to the user. For example, you may generate|occur|produce the effect which becomes easy to change or set a 1st parameter in a 1st game. For example, you may generate|occur|produce the game event which becomes easy to improve a 1st parameter, or provide the game object which becomes easy to improve a 1st parameter to a user. Alternatively, the first parameter may be branched into a game story that becomes easy to change.

In addition, the "first game effect related to the change or setting of the first parameter" includes both an effect for directly changing or setting the first parameter and an effect for indirectly changing or setting the first parameter. . Directly changing or setting the first parameter means, for example, changing or setting the first parameter immediately when an event occurs. Indirectly changing or setting the first parameter means that, for example, when an event occurs, the first parameter is not changed or set, but a parameter for changing or setting the first parameter (eg, FIG. 16 to be described later) and an experience point for changing or setting an ability parameter in FIG. 17) increases, or a game object (eg, a game item for changing or setting an ability parameter) for changing or setting the first parameter to the user to give or give For example, the user may change or set a first parameter such as an ability parameter by using an experience point (FIG. 16, FIG. 17, etc.) or a game item. For example, the user may use these to change or set a first parameter such as an ability parameter immediately after an increase in experience points or immediately after granting a game item, and after a time elapses (eg, the date after change), the first parameter may be changed or set by the user playing the game or accessing the game.

"Effect advantageous for making the first parameter into a desired state" is an effect of making it easy to bring the first parameter into a desired state. For example, changing the amount of change of the first parameter so that the first parameter approaches a desired state. For example, when the first parameter is the capability parameter, the increase amount of the capability parameter is increased.

The "second game" is, for example, a game executed based on the first game object. For example, the "second game" is a game in which a given game task is achieved based on the first game object. In other words, the "second game" is a game in which the user aims to achieve a game task based on the first game object.

A "game task" is a task to be achieved in a game. For example, the "game task" is to leave a predetermined result in the second game. The "game task" differs depending on the content of the second game. For example, when the second game is a competition game in which the first game object whose first parameter has changed in the first game is used, winning the competition may correspond to a "game task".

A "combat game" is a game in which a user and an opponent compete. The opponent may be another user or a computer. For example, a "combat game" is a game in which a match is played based on a first game object owned by the user and a first game object owned by the opponent. For example, a "match game" is a game in which a sports match is played.

The "second game" may be a game in which a reward is given according to the content or result of the game. In this case, obtaining a larger reward corresponds to a "game task".

A "reward" is a game object (a game item, etc.) or a parameter (points or in-game currency) granted to a user. The content of "reward" changes according to the result or content of the game, and the user plays the game with the aim of obtaining a better reward. A good remuneration means a high remuneration or a high remuneration rarity.

Next, the outline|summary of a 1st game and a 2nd game is demonstrated taking a baseball game as an example. In addition, the correspondence between the main terms among the terms described above and the terms in the baseball game described below is as follows.

・「First Game」: Success Part

・「Second Game」: Stadium Part

・「First game object」: main character or original character

・"Second Game Object": Event Character

・“First parameter”: the ability parameter of the main character or original character

・“Second Parameter”: Level parameter of the event character

2 shows an example of a home screen image of a baseball game. As shown in Fig. 2, in the upper area A110 of the home screen image G100, various parameters related to the user who plays the baseball game are displayed. The upper area A110 includes areas A111 to A116 for displaying various parameters related to the user.

Area A111 indicates a user name. The area A112 indicates the amount of coins owned by the user. "Coin" is a virtual currency used in the game, and is used to strengthen event characters, which will be described later (see FIGS. 23 to 27 ). The area A113 indicates the number of Power Stones owned by the user. "Power Stones" are game items that are necessary to perform a lottery (draw) to obtain event characters, or to recover parameters that are normally recovered with the passage of time exceptionally at once.

Area A114 indicates the user's success point. A success point is a point required to play a success part (refer to FIGS. 3 to 19 ), which will be described later. In addition, as mentioned later, the success part is a game part in which a user develops a game character (an example of a 1st game object) who is a baseball player, and creates an original character only for oneself. Success points are decreased (consumed) when the user starts playing in the success mode, and increased (recovered) with the passage of time. Further, in the area A114, the remaining time until all success points are recovered may be displayed.

Area A115 indicates the rank and organizational power of the user's team. In this baseball game, users can form their own teams using original characters nurtured in success parts in the past (see Figs. 29 and 30), and can also compete against other users' teams. There is (see FIGS. 34 and 35). For example, in the case of the example shown in Fig. 2, the alphabet (B) displayed in the area A115 indicates the rank of the user's team. "B" is a lower rank than "A", and is a higher rank than "C". A numerical value 10200 displayed in the area A115 indicates the team organization of the user. For example, the higher the number, the higher the organizational power. In addition, the organizational power is calculated based on the abilities of the game characters belonging to the team.

Area A116 indicates the number of game tickets owned by the user. A "match ticket" is a game item required to play against other user's teams in the stadium part, which will be described later. A user can play a game with another user's team by using one match ticket. In addition, the number of game tickets increases (recovers) with the passage of time. In the area A116, the remaining time until the number of game tickets increases may be displayed.

A plurality of processing objects P121 to P125 are displayed in the lower region A120 of the home screen image G100. The "process object" is, for example, an image, a symbol, or a text associated with processing. Specifically, for example, a button, an icon, or a link corresponds to an example of a "processing object". When a processing object is selected, the processing associated with the processing object is executed.

Processing for returning to the home screen image G100 is associated with the processing object P121. When the user selects the processing object P121 displayed on the screen image in a state where screen images other than the home screen image G100 are displayed on the display unit 15 , the home screen image G100 is displayed on the display unit 15 .

The process for displaying the screen image for organizing a user's team is associated with the process object P122. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 28 to 30 ). Moreover, the process for displaying the screen image for confirming the event character owned by a user, organizing the deck of an event character, or strengthening an event character is associated with the process object P123. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 20 to 27).

The processing object P124 is associated with a processing for displaying a screen image for performing a lottery (drawing) for acquiring an event character. When the user selects the processing object P124, a screen image for performing the lottery is displayed on the display unit 15 .

In the processing object P125, in exchange for a currency in the real world (eg, dollar or yen) or a currency used outside the game (eg, electronic money or points), to purchase Power Stones, or to receive success points or match tickets A process for displaying a screen image for recovery or the like is related. When the user selects the processing object P125, a screen image for purchasing Power Stones or recovering success points or game tickets in exchange for real-world currency is displayed on the display unit 15 .

In addition, the home screen image G100 includes the processing object P130. Processing for displaying a menu screen image is associated with the processing object P130. When the user selects the processing object P130, a menu screen image is displayed on the display unit 15 . Through this menu screen image, the user can establish a relationship with other users (for example, a friend relationship or a colleague relationship) or check a notification from a game providing company.

Further, the home screen image G100 includes processing objects P140, P150, and P160. This baseball game is provided with three parts: a success part, a stadium part, and a challenge part, The processing objects P140, P150, and P160 are for a user to select any one of these parts.

The processing object P140 is related to the success part, and the user can enjoy the success part by selecting the processing object P140. As mentioned above, the success part is a game part which fosters a game character, The detail of a success part is mentioned later (refer FIGS. 3-19).

The processing object P150 is related to the stadium parts, and the user can enjoy the stadium parts by selecting the processing object P150. As mentioned above, the stadium part is a game part which competes with the team of another user, The detail of the stadium part is mentioned later (refer FIG. 34, FIG. 35).

The processing object P160 is related to the challenge part, and the challenge part is executed when the user selects the processing object P160. In this baseball game, for example, a plurality of game tasks, such as "cultivating three player characters in the success part" and "win 100 in the stadium part," are set in advance. In the challenge part, the user can confirm the achievement status of each game task, or can obtain a reward related to the game task accomplished by himself/herself. In addition, the above tasks may be set every day, every week, or every month.

As shown in Fig. 2, the processing objects P140, P150, and P160 are respectively displayed at positions corresponding to the three vertices in the erect triangle. When the user selects any one of the processing objects P140, P150, P160, The selected processing object is displayed at a position corresponding to the upper vertex.

The example shown in FIG. 2 has shown the state in which the process object P140 associated with the success part was selected. In this state, as shown in FIG. 2 , the processing objects P141 to P143 related to the success part are displayed.

In the success part, the user develops the main character by having the game character (hereinafter referred to as a "main character") practice, etc. while advancing the scenario, and creates his or her own original character. In addition, here, a "scenario" is a game story developed according to the progress of the game.

As an example of the above scenario, a game story from the summer of the second year of high school until the main character becomes a professional baseball player is provided. For example, the main character belongs to a high school baseball club, and while practicing with a teammate, obtains a regular (regular player qualification), and participates in baseball games (local qualifiers and national tournaments, etc.). And, if the scout evaluation of the professional baseball team inspecting the practice and match of the main character is higher than the standard, the main character is scouted as a professional baseball player in the fall of the third year of high school.

In the present embodiment, a plurality of scenarios are provided as scenarios in the success part. For example, between these plural scenarios, the high school to which the main character belongs is different. Specifically, a scenario in which the high school to which the main character belongs is a typical high school, a scenario in which the high school to which the main character belongs is a prestigious baseball high school, and the high school to which the main character belongs is a high school in which the number of the other is much higher than that of both male and female students A high school scenario and the like are provided as the plurality of scenarios.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, scenario A (high school A), scenario B (high school B), and scenario C (high school C) are respectively associated with the process objects P141, P142, and P143. When the user selects any one of the processing objects P141 to P143, the selected processing object is displayed in the center of the home screen image G100.

The example shown in Fig. 2 shows a state in which the processing object P142 associated with the scenario B (high school B) is selected. When the user further selects the processing object P142 in this state, the success part is executed. In this case, the scenario of the success part becomes the scenario B.

Here, the flow of success parts is demonstrated. 3 : shows an example of the flow of success parts. As shown in FIG. 3, in a success part, after a free part is performed, a main part is performed. In the free part, information necessary for executing the main part is registered and set.

As shown in Fig. 3, in the free part, first, basic information of the main character is registered. Fig. 4 shows an example of a main character registration screen image for registering basic information of a main character character. In addition, the upper area A210, the lower area A220, and the processing object P130 in the main character registration screen image G200 shown in Fig. 4 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Therefore, the description is omitted here.

As shown in Fig. 4, the main character registration screen image G200 includes the main character registration area A240. The main character registration area A240 is an area for registering basic information of the main character character to be fostered in the success part. For example, basic information includes name, voice, defensive position, good arm, batting form (or pitching form). In addition, "voice" is a method of reading the name (reading Chinese characters, pronunciation) when the name of the main character is audio output. In addition, when "defense position" is other than a pitcher, "batting form" is included in basic information, and when "defense position" is a pitcher, "throwing form" is included.

In this embodiment, basic information of the main character character is automatically initialized and displayed in the main character registration area A240. In the main character registration area A240, processing objects P241 to P245 associated with each item are displayed, and the user can change the contents of the item by selecting the processing object associated with the item to be changed. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 4, since the process object P241 is associated with "name", the user can change the name of the main character character to an arbitrary name by selecting the process object P241.

In addition, the main character registration screen image G200 includes processing objects P230 and P250. The processing object P230 is associated with processing for returning to the screen image displayed one time ago. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P230, the home screen image G100 is displayed on the display part 15. FIG.

On the other hand, the processing object P250 is associated with processing for completing the setting of the basic information of the main character character. As shown in Fig. 3, when the registration of the basic information of the main character is completed, the event deck is set. For this reason, when the user selects the process object P250, the event deck setting screen image for setting the event deck is displayed on the display part 15. As shown in FIG. Although the details will be described later, the event character set on the event deck affects the upbringing of the main character character.

5 : is an example of an event deck setting screen image. Further, the upper area A310, the lower area A320, and the processing object P130 in the event deck setting screen image G300 shown in Fig. 5 are the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Since it is the same, description is abbreviate|omitted here. In addition, the processing object P330 in the event deck setting screen image G300 is similar to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200, to return to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the main character registration screen image G200). will be.

As shown in Fig. 5, the event deck setting screen image G300 includes the event deck setting area A340. In addition, in FIG. 5, the content displayed in the event deck setting area A340 is abbreviate|omitted, and the content displayed in the event deck setting area A340 is shown in FIG.

Here, the "event deck" will be described. As will be described later, various events occur in the main part (scenario) of the success part. For example, an event favorable to the improvement of the main character's ability occurs. In this point and this embodiment, the event which generate|occur|produces in the main part of success parts is not fixed, According to the one or some game character organized by the user in the event deck, various events are made to generate|occur|produce. For this reason, a user can select the event which can generate|occur|produce in a main part by selecting the game character organized in an event deck. In addition, below, the game character (in other words, the game character for event generation|occurrence|production) which can be organized in an event deck is called "event character."

In the example shown in Fig. 6, the event deck setting area A340 includes the area A341 and the processing object P342. Area A341 indicates the name of the event deck. Moreover, the process for displaying the screen image for changing the name of an event deck is associated with the process object P342. When the user selects the processing object P342, a screen image for changing the name of the event deck is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user can change the name of the event deck.

Further, in the event deck setting area A340, six setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, A344-5, and A345 are provided for setting event characters to be members of the event deck. .

In the present embodiment, when the user plays this baseball game for the first time, a predetermined number of event characters are given to the user. In addition, the user can acquire an event character by lottery, acquire an event character as a reward in a game, or acquire an event character from another user. The event character is given to the user in the form of a game card (digital card), and the user can possess the event character in the form of a game card. In this point and this embodiment, a user can arbitrarily organize up to 5 event characters on an event deck among the event characters owned by the user himself/herself. The setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, and A344-5 are frames for setting an event character owned by the user himself as a member of the event deck. For example, as shown in Fig. 6 , an image representing an event character set by the user on the event deck is displayed in the event deck setting area A340 together with the level and rarity of the event character.

In addition, in this embodiment, only one event character owned by another user can be organized in an event deck as a helper. The setting frame A345 is a frame for setting an event character owned by another user as a member of the event deck.

In addition, in the example shown in Fig. 6, the upper limit of the number of event characters that can be organized in the event deck among the event characters owned by the user is set to "5", and among the event characters owned by other users, The upper limit of the number of event characters that can be organized in the event deck is set to "1". For example, you may make it change this upper limit by satisfy|filling a predetermined|prescribed condition. Specifically, for example, when the progress of the game reaches the standard, the upper limit may be increased. Alternatively, the upper limit may be increased by billing (eg, by consuming billed items). Alternatively, the upper limit may be increased by consuming a predetermined amount of in-game points, in-game currency, or the like. In addition, you may make it change an upper limit by satisfy|filling various conditions.

When the user performs a long press operation (operation of touching for a predetermined time or longer) on a certain setting frame, an event character screen image showing detailed information of the event character set in the setting frame is displayed on the display unit 15 .

7 shows an example of an event character screen image. 7 , the event character screen image G400 includes a first area A410, a second area A420, and a third area A440.

In the first area 410, the name, image, rarity, level, experience, event power, player ability, and skill practice of the event character are displayed. Here, event power, player ability, skill practice, and the like are different for each event character. In particular, since the skill practice is different for each event character, a choice or strategy arises when the user organizes the event character on the event deck.

"Rarity" indicates, for example, the difficulty of obtaining an event character. The higher the rarity of the event character, the more difficult it is to obtain the event character. In general, the higher the rarity of the event character, the higher the usefulness (ability, effect, etc.) of the event character. Therefore, it can be said that "rarity" indicates the usefulness of the event character.

In the example shown in Fig. 7, "R" displayed on the left side of the event character image indicates the rarity of the event character. In the present embodiment, any one of the rarities of multiple stages of PSR (Powerful Super Rare), SR (Super Rare), PR (Powerful Rare), R (Rare), PN (Powerful Normal), and N (Normal) is each It is associated with the event character. In addition, if these are arranged in order from the highest, it becomes PSR, SR, PR, R, PN, N. That is, PSR indicates the highest rarity, and N indicates the lowest rarity. In addition, even in the same event character, there may exist six types of rarities of PSR, SR, PR, R, PN, and N. The same event character herein is an event character with the same name, and may also be referred to as an event character with the same appearance (image). For example, when the event character is a person, being the same person corresponds to the same event character.

"Level" indicates the level of the event character. In the example shown in Fig. 7, "Lv. 8/22 (+2)” indicates the level of the event character. This indicates that the current level of the event character is "8" and the maximum level (upper limit level) is "22".

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 7, the gauge area A411 shows the current experience value of an event character. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, by synthesizing an event character with another event character, an experience value is given to the event character (refer to FIGS. 23 to 27 ). And, when the experience value of the event character reaches a predetermined value, the level of the event character rises by one. The state in which the gauge in the gauge area A411 extends to the right end of the gauge area A411 corresponds to a state in which the event character's experience value has reached a predetermined value.

The level of the event character is limited so as not to exceed the maximum level. The maximum level is different depending on the rarity. The higher the rarity, the higher the maximum level. In addition, when the same event character is synthesized with an event character, the maximum level of the event character may increase. 「Lv. 8/22 (+2)” indicates that the maximum level of the event character has been increased by 2. That is, the initial maximum level of the event character is "20", indicating that the maximum level has risen to "22" as the event character is strengthened.

"Event power" represents the potential of an event associated with an event character (that is, an event that can occur depending on the event character in the main part). It indicates that the higher the event power value, the easier it will be to raise the main character's ability. The higher the rarity, the higher the event power value.

"Player ability" indicates the ability of an event character as a player. In the main part, a match event occurs in the main part (scenario) of the success part, and a match between the high school to which the main character character belongs and the other high school is held. In this match, the event character organized on the event deck participates as a teammate of the main character character. The player ability indicates the height of the ability that the event character can exhibit in such a match.

In the example shown in Fig. 7, alphabets and numerical values indicating player abilities are displayed. The higher the number, the higher the ability of the event character to exhibit as a player in the match. In addition, any one of the alphabets of S, A, B, C, D, E, and F is associated with an event character according to the said numerical value. "S" indicates that the player's ability is very high, and "F" indicates that the player's ability is very low.

Also, player abilities do not change in a predetermined state. That is, even if an event character is combined with another event character, the player ability of the event character does not change. The event character screen image G400 includes a processing object P430 associated with processing for displaying details of the player ability of the event character. When the user selects the processing object P430, a screen image showing details of the player ability of the event character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

"Experienced practice" indicates the most proficient practice of the event character. As will be described later, in the main part (scenario) of the success part, the ability of the main character can be increased by having the main character practice practice. Moreover, when the main character is made to practice the skill of the event character together with the event character, it becomes easier to increase the ability of the main character than in a normal case.

The second area A420 indicates an event list, event bonus, and profile of the event character. 7 , the second area A420 includes a first tap T421, a second tap T422, and a third tap T423.

A first tab T421 indicates an event list of event characters. "Event list" indicates a list of events that can occur in the main part of the success part when event characters are organized in the event deck. Further, the third tab T423 indicates the profile of the event character. In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 7 , the second tap T422 is mainly displayed, but the user selects the first tap T421 or the third tap T423 to replace the second tap T422 with the first tap T421 or the third tap. T423 can be displayed.

A second tap T422 indicates an event bonus of an event character. In the main part of the success part, an advantageous effect (bonus) occurs in raising the ability of the main character by the event characters organized in the event deck. "Event bonus" represents the effect that occurs in the main part of the success part when event characters are organized in the event deck.

In the example shown in Fig. 7, "Initial evaluation (15)", "Special tag bonus 20%", "Teaching event bonus 20%" and "Skill practice rate up 10%" are set as event bonuses for the event character. . Details of this event bonus will be described later (refer to the description of FIGS. 13, 16 and 17).

In addition, the effect which generate|occur|produces by the said event character may differ according to the combination of an event character and the scenario of the success part selected by the user. For example, an event or event bonus generated by an event character may change according to a scenario. In this case, in the event character screen image G400, the effect for each scenario may be identifiable. In addition, in the success part, a match in which the main character character participates is held, but an event character can also participate in this match. However, event characters cannot participate in matches in the stadium part.

In this embodiment, as the level of the event character increases, the event bonus (the above effect) also becomes stronger. As shown in FIG. 7 , the second tab T422 includes a processing object P424 with which processing for displaying the corresponding relationship between the level of the event character and the event bonus is associated. When the user selects the processing object P424, a bonus detail screen image indicating the correspondence between the level of the event character and the event bonus is displayed on the display unit 15 .

8 shows an example of a bonus detail screen image. As shown in FIG. 8 , in the bonus detailed screen image G500, the correspondence relationship between the level of the event character and the event bonus is displayed. That is, the bonus related to the level of the event character is displayed on the bonus detail screen image G500. The event bonus associated with the level "n" of the event character indicates an event bonus that occurs in the main part of the success part when the level of the event character is level "n" or higher.

Further, in the bonus detail screen image G500, an event bonus associated with a level below the current level of the event character and an event bonus associated with a level higher than the current level of the event character are displayed.

Further, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the event bonus associated with a level lower than or equal to the current level of the event character and the event bonus associated with a level higher than the current level of the event character are displayed so that the user can distinguish. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the check object is displayed in association with the level below the current level of the event character. In the example shown in FIG. 8, since the current level of an event character is "8" (refer FIG. 7), check objects C510, C520 are displayed in association with levels "1" and "5". For this reason, it becomes easy for a user to grasp|ascertain what kind of event bonus generate|occur|produces in the main part of a success part by organizing the event character of a present state in an event deck. Also, instead of the above check objects C510 and C520, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the color of the area of the level below the current level of the event character (that is, the area showing the effect occurring at the current level of the event character) may be changed, or the brightness may be changed. Conversely, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the color of the area showing the effect that does not occur at the current level of the event character may be changed, or the brightness may be changed.

Moreover, the bonus detailed screen image G500 also includes the processing object P530 with which the process for closing the bonus detailed screen image G500 was associated. When the user selects the processing object P530, the bonus detail screen image G500 disappears, and the event character screen image G400 is displayed.

As shown in Fig. 7, the third area A440 of the event character screen image G400 includes processing objects P441, P442, and P443.

The processing object P441 is a processing object with which processing for closing the event character screen image G400 is associated. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P441, the event character screen image G400 disappears, and the event deck setting screen image G300 is displayed.

The processing object P442 is a processing object with which processing for locking an event character is associated. "Locking an event character" means making it impossible to sell an event character or combine it with another event character. When the user selects the processing object P442, the event character displayed on the event character screen image G400 is in a locked state. Further, when the event character displayed on the event character screen image G400 is in a locked state, the processing object P442 becomes a processing object associated with processing for unlocking the event character.

The processing object P443 is a processing object associated with processing for setting an event character as a leader. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P443, the event character displayed on the event character screen image G400 is set as the leader. The event character set by the user as the leader can be rented as a helper to other users. Conversely, the user can play the success part by renting an event character set as a leader by another user.

In addition, if an event character set by the user as a leader is rented as a helper, a reward is given to the user. For example, when an event character set by the user as a leader is rented as a helper, a notice indicating that fact and rewards are given is displayed on the display unit 15 at the time of starting a game or the like. The reward may be provided automatically, or may be provided when the user performs an operation for receiving the reward. As a reward, for example, a lottery point, coin, store medal, game item, etc. may be granted, the experience value or level of an event character owned by the user may be improved, or the ability parameter of the main character or original character may be improved. do. In addition, the content of a reward may change according to the result of the success part used as an assistant.

In the event deck setting area A340 shown in Fig. 6, the user taps on any one of the setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, and A344-5 (touch operation for a short time) , the event character set in the setting frame is selected as the change source, and an event character change screen image for changing the event character selected as the change source to another event character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

9 shows an example of an event character change screen image. In addition, the upper area A610, the lower area A620, and the processing object P130 in the event character change screen image G600 shown in Fig. 9 are the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Since it is the same, description is abbreviate|omitted here. In addition, the processing object P630 in the event character change screen image G600 is similar to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200, to return to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the event deck setting screen image G300). will be.

The event character change screen image G600 includes an event character list area A640. The event character list area A640 indicates a list of event characters owned by the user. In the event character list area A640, the event characters organized in the event deck and the event characters not organized in the event deck are displayed so that the user can distinguish them. In the example shown in Fig. 9, the text (or image) "in use" is displayed in relation to the event characters organized on the event deck, and the same event character cannot be selected so as not to be overlapped with the event deck. . The user selects as a change destination any one of the event characters not organized in the event deck. When the user selects any one event character as the change destination, the event character selected as the change destination is organized in the event deck instead of the event character selected as the change source.

Further, the event character list area A640 includes a processing object P641 with which processing for removing the event character selected as the change source from the event deck is associated. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P641, the event character selected as the change source is removed from the event deck.

The processing object P650 is associated with processing of arranging the display order of the event characters displayed in the event character list area A640. Here, multiple conditions can be specified, for example, in order of “acquisition”, “in order of rarity”, “in order of level”, “in order of mastery practice (details will be described later)”, “in order of event power”, “in order of player ability” You can sort event characters in the following order: 'in order of name', 'in order of name', and 'in order of lock'.

Further, in the event deck setting area A340 shown in Fig. 6, when the user taps the setting frame A345 (touching operation for a short time), a screen for selecting a helper from among event characters owned by other users An image is displayed on the display unit 15 .

Fig. 10 shows an example of the event deck setting area A340 when the event character in the setting frame A344-5 is changed to another event character, and a helper is selected from event characters owned by other users.

6 and 10 , the event deck setting area A340 includes the skilled practice area A346. The skill practice area A346 shows the skill practice of the event characters organized in the event deck. As shown in Figs. 6 and 10 , in the event deck setting area A340, the event characters shown in setting frames A344-1 to A344-5 and A345 and the skill training shown in the skill training area A346 are displayed. That is, on the same screen, an event character and skill training corresponding to the event character are displayed. For this reason, the user can easily visually recognize the skill practice he wants and the event character having it, and can grasp intuitively whether the event character organized in the event deck is ideal.

In this embodiment, among 10 types of exercises: “Strike”, “Strength”, “Running”, “Strength”, “Defense”, “Mental”, “Constraint”, “Control”, “Stamina”, and “Change Ball” Either one is set as the mastery practice of the event character. Among these, "defense" and "mental" are practice items common to both a fielder and a pitcher. “Strike”, “Strength”, “Running Base”, and “Strength” are practice items for beasts. "Constraint", "Control", "Stamina", and "Change Ball" are the pitcher's practice items. These exercises are performed by the main character in the success part described later.

As shown in Figs. 6 and 10 , in the skilled practice area A346, these 10 types of exercises are displayed, and among the 10 types of exercises, the exercises set as the mastery exercises of the event characters organized on the event deck are displayed. , exercises that are not set as skill exercises of the event characters organized in the event deck are displayed so that the user can distinguish them.

In addition, in the skilled practice area A346, mainly practice for fielders (batting, strength, running base, traction, defense) is displayed on one side (left), and practice mainly for pitchers (constraint, control, stamina, change ball) is different. It is displayed on the side (right) side. Then, practice (mental) for both the fielder and the pitcher is displayed between them. In the state where the display positions of each exercise are arranged in this way, as described below, by making it possible to identify the skill training of the event character organized on the event deck, an event character ideal for training a fielder or a pitcher is organized on the event deck You can intuitively see what you are doing. For example, if the main character character that the user wants to develop is a pitcher, if a lot of skill training is placed on the left side, it can be intuitively understood that the event character organized in the event deck is not ideal for training a pitcher. can easily make a judgment such as replacing an event character. In addition, in this example, the practice for the fielder and the practice for the pitcher are divided into left and right, but the arrangement may be divided up and down. Moreover, for example, you may make it different from the practice display form of a fielder and a pitcher. For example, you may distinguish between a fielder and a pitcher's practice, such as marking the fielder's practice in green and the pitching practice in red. In this way, for example, when the main character character that the user wants to develop is a beast, if there are many reds as a skill practice, it is intuitively possible to grasp that the event character organized in the event deck is not ideal for fostering a beast, The user can easily make a judgment such as replacing the event character.

Further, in the skilled practice area A346, the exercises set as the skill exercises of the event characters organized on the event deck and the exercises not set as the skill exercises of the event characters organized on the event deck are displayed in different display forms. In the examples shown in Figs. 6 and 10, by displaying an X in association with a practice that is not set as a mastery exercise of the event character organized on the event deck, an exercise set as a mastery exercise of the event character organized on the event deck and exercises that are not set as skill exercises of the event characters organized in the event deck are distinguished and displayed. In addition, as a method of performing a distinguishing display, it is not limited to x display. You may make the display form of the exercise set as skilled exercise and the exercise which is not set mutually different from each other, and you may make it distinguish display by changing these color tones and brightness, for example. In this case, the display of the exercise set as the skilled exercise may be displayed brightly, and the exercise set as the skilled exercise may be displayed darker than that. In this way, since the skill practice can be grasped by the brightness of the image, the skill practice can be grasped more intuitively.

In the skill practice area A346 shown in FIG. 10, numerical value (2) is displayed in association with each of "muscular strength" and "shoulder strength". This numerical value indicates the number of event characters whose training is set as skilled practice among the event characters organized on the event deck. This number of people also includes the event character of the helper. The skilled practice area A346 shown in Fig. 10 indicates that among the event characters organized in the event deck, two event characters whose "strength" is set as the skilled practice are included. Similarly, skill practice area A346 shown in FIG. 10 indicates that among the event characters organized in the event deck, two event characters whose "strength" is set as skill practice are included. Here, although the number of event characters having the same skill practice is displayed on the screen numerically, for example, an image such as a star mark or icon is made to correspond to the number of event characters, so that any It may be displayed at one position, or may be displayed while being superimposed on the skilled practice. In addition, an image directly indicating the number of event characters having the same skill practice is not displayed on the screen, and as the number of event characters having the same skill practice increases, the brightness of the skill practice is increased, or effects such as light or blinking You can make it stronger or make it stronger.

In addition, in the skilled practice area A346, only the exercises set as the skill exercises of the event characters organized on the event deck may be displayed, and exercises not set as the skill exercises of the event characters organized on the event deck may not be displayed.

In addition, when a plurality of event characters for which the same exercise is set as an expert exercise are included among the event characters organized in the event deck, the exercise may be displayed in plurality in the skilled exercise area A346.

In addition, in this embodiment, not only the event characters of "players" but also event characters of "managers" can be organized in the event deck. Since the event character of "manager" is not set for skilled practice, even if it is organized on the event deck, the display of the skill practice area A346 does not change. For example, in the skill practice area A346 of the event deck where there are four event characters of "player" and one event character of "manager", only skill exercises for four people are displayed.

As shown in Figs. 6 and 10, the event deck setting area A340 includes a processing object P343 with which processing for automatically setting the event deck in response to a user's request is associated.

When the user selects the processing object P343, an automatic setting menu screen image for selecting the development policy of the main character character is displayed. 11 shows an example of an automatic setting menu screen image. In the automatic setting menu screen image G700 shown in Fig. 11, one of the first training policy of "cultivating the main character as a pitcher" and the second training policy of "cultivating the main character as a beast" is selected is made possible

The automatic setting menu screen image G700 includes the processing object P710. The process for selecting the 1st fostering policy is associated with the process object P710. In other words, the processing object P710 is associated with processing for automatically setting an event deck suitable for cultivating the main character character as a pitcher. That is, when the processing object P710 is selected, for example, an event character associated with an event advantageous for the improvement of pitching ability, or an event character associated with the practice item for which the pitching practice item is most confident, has priority over other event characters. is set as a member of the event deck.

In addition, the automatic setting menu screen image G700 also includes the processing object P720. The process for selecting the 2nd upbringing policy is associated with the process object P720. In other words, processing for automatically setting an event deck suitable for cultivating the main character character as a beast is associated with the processing object P420. That is, when the processing object P720 is selected, for example, an event character associated with an event advantageous for the improvement of a beast ability or an event character associated with a practice item for the beast as the most confident exercise item has priority over other event characters. is set as a member of the event deck.

As described above, in this embodiment, when the user selects a desired option from among a plurality of options displayed on the automatic setting menu screen image G700 (that is, a plurality of options related to the upbringing policy), the event deck matching the desired upbringing policy is automatically is set to Thereby, a user can easily perform setting of the event deck which matches the desired fostering policy.

In addition, if the “Pitcher” training policy is selected and there are few event characters with “Pitcher” training set to Skilled Practice, the Event Character with “Beast” training set for Skilled Practice will be added to the event deck. You can set it up. Conversely, if the “beast” training policy is selected and there are few event characters who have “beast” practice set to skilled practice, the event character whose “pitcher” practice is set for skilled practice will be added to the event deck. You can set it up. In this case, event characters with high rarity may be preferentially organized in the event deck.

In the example shown in Fig. 11, any one of the two training policies of "Pitcher" and "Fielder" can be selected. You may make it possible to select any one of a plurality of fostering policies related to ". For example, you may make it possible for a user to select the ability to be important from a plurality of abilities related to "a pitcher" or a "fielder". For example, as a training policy regarding "a pitcher", you may make it possible to select any one of "emphasis on restraint", "emphasis on control", and "emphasis on change ball". Further, for example, as a training policy for "beasts", you may make it possible to select any one of "emphasis on meat", "emphasis on power", "focus on main force", and "focus on defense".

In the automatic setting menu screen image G700, a plurality of questions may be presented to the user. In addition, you may make it that the event character matching the answers to these plural questions is preferentially organized in the event deck. In this way, the user's desired upbringing policy may be judged from the answers to a plurality of questions, and event characters suitable for the user's desired upbringing policy may be preferentially organized in the event deck. Further, as the plurality of questions described above, a plurality of questions related to the user's personality diagnosis may be presented. In this way, event characters suitable for cultivating the main character character may be preferentially organized in the event deck so as to resemble the user's personality.

Moreover, the automatic setting menu screen image G700 also includes the processing object P730 with which the process for closing the automatic setting menu screen image G700 is associated. When the user selects the processing object P730, the automatic setting menu screen image G700 disappears, and the event deck setting screen image G300 is displayed.

Returning to Fig. 5, the event deck setting screen image G300 includes the processing object P350. The processing object P350 is associated with the processing for completing the setting of the event deck. As shown in Fig. 3, when the setting of the event deck is completed, a game item is selected. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P350, a screen image for selecting a game item is displayed on the display unit 15 .

In this embodiment, the user can acquire the game item which becomes advantageous for raising the ability of the main character character in the success part as a reward, or can acquire it from another user. In this screen image, the user selects the game item used in this success part (main part) from among the game items which he owns. In addition, an upper limit (for example, two) is set for the number of game items that can be selected here. Users cannot select game items beyond this upper limit.

When the selection of the game item is completed, the free part is completed and the main part is started. In the main part, the scenario selected by the user in the home screen image G100 is started. For example, a scenario in which the main character belongs to a high school baseball club, and aims to become a professional baseball player by gaining regulars while practicing with teammates, participating in matches (local qualifiers and national competitions). is initiated.

In the scenario, the event characters organized in the event deck appear. For example, the event character organized in the event deck appears as a teammate of the main character or a manager of a baseball team to which the main character belongs. In this way, the event characters owned by the user become characters in the scenario by being organized on the event deck. In addition, you may make it appear in a game as the game character organized in the event deck, for example as a player of a rival team.

In addition, in the scenario, predetermined game characters (for example, one manager, one scout, one manager, and 4 to 8 players of teammates) are previously set as characters. This game character appears in the game even if it is not organized in the event deck. For this reason, it can be said that the event character organized in the event deck is a game character added as a character.

As shown in FIG. 3 , the main part (scenario) includes a plurality of sections. In the example shown in FIG. 3 , the main part (scenario) is time-series divided into four sections.

Also, in the example shown in Fig. 3, the scenarios are branched. Specifically, sections 3A and 3B are prepared as the third section. Due to this, after section 2 is completed, the user can select any one of sections 3A and 3B. If the user selects section 3A, then section 3A begins, and after section 3A is completed, section 4A begins. On the other hand, when the user selects section 3B, section 3B starts, and after section 3B is completed, section 4B starts. That is, after the user selects the section 3A, the transition to section 4B is impossible, and on the contrary, after the user selects the section 3B, the transition to the section 4A is impossible.

In addition, the scenario may be branched only within a specific period. That is, only within a specific period, the user may be allowed to proceed to sections 3B and 4B, and outside the specified period, the user may be prevented from proceeding to sections 3B and 4B. In such a case, in Sections 3B and 4B, special events that normally do not occur unless special event characters (for example, event characters with high rarity) are organized on the event deck. It may happen even if it doesn't. By doing in this way, the special event may be caused to occur by proceeding to sections 3B and 4B even for a user who does not possess a special event character only within a specific period. In addition, if the specific period has ended while the user is proceeding with the sections 3B and 4B, it may be possible to proceed with the sections 3B and 4B only for a predetermined period (for example, one day) thereafter. In addition, the sections after the sections 3A and 3B may be further branched into a plurality. In addition, there may be a plurality of sections that can be advanced only within a specific period. In addition, when the scenario branches as described above, when the user selects a specific section, when an event occurs, etc., the main character can acquire the ability that the event character of the event deck set by the user does not have. You can do it. In addition, when the user selects a specific section, the increase amount of the ability parameter at the time of occurrence of an event or the like may be made larger than the normal increase amount by the event characters organized in the event deck. In addition, for example, when the user selects a specific section, it may be possible to acquire more coins, lottery points, and the like than usual. In addition, in the above form, it is configured to branch from section 2 to sections 3B and 4B, and branching occurs in some of the four sections. You can do it. That is, you may make it branch generate|occur|produce in all the sections.

Further, as shown in Fig. 3, each section includes a plurality of turns. In the example shown in FIG. 3, each section is comprised by 12 turns. The number of turns included in a section may be different for each section.

For example, one turn corresponds to one week in the game. Each time one turn ends, the virtual time in the game progresses for one week, so that the scenario progresses. Also, one turn may correspond to one day or one month in the game.

When the scenario progresses to the end, the development of the main character is completed. The main character, which has been raised, is registered as an original character and can be used in stadium parts. After the main part is finished, by starting the success part from the beginning again, it is possible to develop a separate main character character (that is, to generate a separate original character).

In each turn of the main part, the user selects any one of the options regarding the action of the main character as the action to be performed by the main character.

12 shows an example of the main command screen image in the success part. The main command screen image G800 shown in Fig. 12 is a screen image for selecting an action to be performed by the main character character.

As shown in Fig. 12, in the upper area A810 of the main command screen image G800, the progress of the scenario is displayed. For example, the current section or the number of turns remaining until the current section ends is displayed. In addition, the time point in the game is also displayed. In the example shown in Fig. 12, "2 years and 2 weeks in August" is displayed, which indicates that the main character is a sophomore in high school and is currently in the second week of August.

In addition, in the upper area A810, the motivation parameter of the main character is also displayed. The motivation parameter is a parameter indicating the motivation (condition) of the main character. For example, the higher the value of the motivation parameter, the higher the motivation of the main character is. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, experience points are given to the main character character by the main character practicing in each turn (refer to Fig. 13). At this time, the higher the motivation of the main character, the more experience points are given to the main character.

Also, in the upper area A810, the number of treasure chests found in the current section is displayed. As will be described later, in each turn, a treasure chest discovery event in which a dog finds and carries a treasure chest occurs based on predetermined probability information (see FIG. 14 ), and the number of treasure chests found in this way is is displayed

Also, the upper area A810 includes a gauge area A811 indicating the physical strength parameter of the main character. For example, when the main character is practicing, the value of the physical strength parameter decreases, and when the main character takes a break from practice, the value of the physical parameter increases (recovers). In addition, when the value of the physical fitness parameter is lowered, the probability that the main character will be injured during practice increases (see FIG. 13 ).

Also, the upper area A810 includes a processing object P812. The process for displaying the menu screen image related to the success part is associated with the process object P812, and when a user selects the process object P812, a menu screen image is displayed on the display part 15. FIG. In the menu screen image, the success part can be interrupted, for example.

12, processing objects P821, P822, P823, and P824 are displayed in the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800.

The process of displaying the log of a success part (main part) is associated with the process object P821, and when a user selects the process object P821, a log is displayed.

The process object P822 is associated with the process of turning on/off the auto function. The auto function is a function of automatically sending the text displayed on the display unit 15 . In the main part, texts indicating changes in parameters and texts indicating conversations between the main character and other game characters are displayed on the display unit 15 (see Figs. 14 and 15). Usually, the user needs to tap the display unit 15 in order to send such text, but when the auto function is set to on, the text is automatically sent without the user tapping the display unit 15 . The user can turn on/off the auto function by selecting the processing object P822.

The processing object P823 is associated with processing for turning on/off the skip function. The skip function is a function that automatically sends the text displayed on the display unit 15 at a speed faster than the auto function. When the skip function is set to on, the text is automatically sent at a speed faster than the auto function even if the user does not tap the display unit 15 . The user can turn on/off the skip function by selecting the processing object P823. However, both the auto function and the skip function cannot be turned on, but only one of them can be turned on.

Processing for turning on/off the shortcut function is associated with the processing object P824. The shortcut function is a function to omit a part of the text related to the event. For example, in the main part, an event in which the main character and other game characters converse occurs, and text representing the conversation may be displayed. However, when the shortcut function is set to on, a part of the text is omitted. The user can turn on/off the shortcut function by selecting the processing object P824.

Also, as shown in Fig. 12, the main command screen image G800 includes the main character ability area A830. In the main character ability area A830, values of various basic ability parameters of the main character are displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 12, the values of the trajectory parameter, the mitt parameter, the power parameter, the main parameter, the thrust parameter, and the defense power parameter of the main character are displayed.

The trajectory parameter indicates how high the batted ball of the main character is raised. The higher the value of the ballistic parameter, the higher the batted ball rises. The mitt parameter represents the mitt force of the main character (the ability to hit the bat with the ball thrown by the pitcher). It shows that meat force is so high that the value of a meat parameter is high. The power parameter indicates the power of the main character (the ability to hit the ball thrown by the pitcher with a bat). The higher the value of the power parameter, the easier it is for the ball hit by the bat to fly farther.

The main parameter represents the foot speed of the main character. The higher the value of the main parameter, the faster the foot. The traction parameter represents the speed of the throw of the main character. A higher value of the traction parameter indicates a faster throw. The defense power parameter indicates the superiority of the defense of the main character. The higher the value of the defense parameter, the better the defense.

In addition, since the example shown in FIG. 12 shows the case where the main character character is a beast, basic ability parameters related to the beast ability are displayed in the main character ability area A830. When the main character is a pitcher, basic ability parameters related to pitching ability, such as constraint parameters, control parameters, and stamina parameters, are displayed in the main character ability area A830.

Also, as shown in Fig. 12, the main command screen image G800 includes the command area A840. In the command area A840, processing objects P841, P842, P843, P844, P845, and P846 are displayed.

The processing object P841 is associated with a process for causing the main character to practice, and by selecting the processing object P841, the user can make the main character practice. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 13 and 14 ).

The processing object P842 is associated with a process for resting the main character, and the user can rest the main character by selecting the processing object P842. Resting the main character increases (recovers) the main character's stamina parameters.

The processing object P843 is associated with a process of bringing the main character to the hospital, and the user can make the main character go to the hospital by selecting the processing object P843. For example, when the main character is ill or has a breakdown, the main character can be cured of the disease or malfunction by sending the main character to the hospital.

The processing object P844 is associated with the processing of making the main character play, and the user can make the main character play by selecting the processing object P844. When you let the main character play, the motivation parameter of the main character increases.

The processing object P845 is associated with the processing of making the main character perform a date, and by selecting the processing object P845, the user can make the main character character go on a date.

Processing for improving the ability of the main character is associated with the processing object P846, and the user can improve the ability of the main character by selecting the processing object P846. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 16 and 17 ).

13 shows an example of a practice screen image. The practice screen image G900 shown in FIG. 13 is displayed on the display unit 15 when the processing object P841 of the main command screen image G800 is selected. In addition, since the upper area A910 of the practice screen image G900 is the same as the upper area A810 of the main command screen image G800, the description is omitted here.

13 , the practice screen image G900 includes the command area A920. In the command area A920, a plurality of processing objects P921, P922, P923, P924, P925, and P926 respectively corresponding to the plurality of practice items are displayed. These processing objects P921 to P926 are associated with processing for causing the main character to perform various exercises.

The processing object P921 is associated with processing for causing the main character to practice hitting. The processing object P922 is associated with processing for causing the main character to exercise muscle strength. The processing object P923 is associated with a processing for causing the main character to practice running. The processing object P924 is associated with a processing for causing the main character to practice stamina. The processing object P925 is associated with a processing for causing the main character to practice defense. The processing object P926 is associated with processing for causing the main character to perform mental exercise.

For example, in a case where the main character character wants to practice running, the user first selects the processing object P923. In this case, the processing object P923 is put into a tentatively selected state. In this state, the processing object P923 is displayed to be distinguished from the other processing objects P921, P922, P924 to P926, and it is shown that the processing object P923 is tentatively selected. In the example shown in Fig. 13, the position of the processing object P923 in the screen vertical direction is different from the other processing objects P921, P922, and P924 to P926, and the cursor object C927 is associated with the processing object P923. In addition, in this state, the probability of getting injured during running practice is displayed in relation to the processing object P923. This probability is determined based on the value of the physical strength parameter of the main character. The smaller the value of the physical strength parameter of the main character, the higher the probability of getting injured during practice.

The practice screen image G900 also includes the experience point area A930. In the experience point area A930, the experience points of the main character (that is, the experience points currently possessed by the main character) are displayed.

In this embodiment, five types of experience points are set: strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mind points. Fig. 13 shows a case where the strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mental points of the main character are 3 points, 5 points, 4 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively.

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 13, "+4" and "+15" are displayed in association with a muscle strength point and agility point, respectively. This shows that when the temporarily selected exercise item (running practice) is executed, the strength points of the main character increase by 4 points and the agility points increase by 15 points.

In the present embodiment, for each exercise item, the type of experience points increased by the exercise and the amount of increase thereof are determined. When the running practice is performed as described above, the strength points and the agility points increase. Also, for example, when hitting practice is performed, strength points, skill points, and mind points increase.

In addition, a level is set for each exercise item. The level of the practice item rises when the number of times the practice is performed reaches a predetermined number of times. The higher the level of the exercise item, the greater the amount of increase in experience points when the exercise is performed.

The practice screen image G900 also includes the game character area A940. In this embodiment, game characters (teammates, coaches, coaches, managers) other than the main character character are assigned to each practice item, and game characters other than the main character character are also directed to practice or watch any one exercise. . At this point, in the game character area A940, the game character assigned to the provisionally selected practice item is displayed. In addition, the game character assigned to each practice item changes every turn.

In the example shown in Fig. 13, since running training is tentatively selected, the game character assigned to running training is displayed in the game character area A940.

In the game character area A940, the gauge area A941 is displayed in association with the game character. This gauge area A941 represents the evaluation of the main character of the game character. The longer the gauge in the gauge area A941, the higher the evaluation of the main character of the game character is. As will be described later, when the main character performs the skill practice assigned to the game character (that is, when the main character performs the same exercise as the game character), the evaluation of the main character of the game character increases (refer to FIG. 14 ) ).

In addition, in the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7 , "initial evaluation 15" was set as the event bonus of the event character. This event bonus "initial evaluation 15" indicates that, at the start of the main part, the evaluation of the event character for the main character is initially set to a value 15 higher than the normal value 0.

The example shown in FIG. 13 has shown the case where the event character (Yabe) organized in the event deck is assigned to running practice. In other words, the case where the event character (Yabe) organized in the event deck is practicing running with the main character as a teammate is shown.

The practice item (running base) displayed in association with the event character indicates the mastery practice of this event character. For this reason, the example shown in FIG. 13 has shown the case where an event character is assigned to one's own mastery exercise (running exercise). In other words, the case where the event character is performing its own skill practice (running practice) is shown.

In such a case, when the main character performs running practice, the amount of increase in experience points increases compared to the normal case. In other words, when the main character performs skill training of the event character together with the event character, the amount of increase in experience points increases compared to the normal case. That is, in a turn in which an event character whose running practice is set as skilled practice is assigned to running practice, the amount of increase in experience points as the main character performs running practice is assigned to the event character whose running practice is set as skilled practice is assigned to running practice. It becomes more than a turn that is not done.

In addition, in the case described above, when the main character performs running practice, if the evaluation of the event character for the main character is higher than a predetermined standard, a special tag bonus event may occur. When the special tag bonus event occurs, the amount of increase in experience points increases compared to the case where the special tag bonus event does not occur. In this way, when the main character performs mastery practice of the event character together with the event character who has a high evaluation of the main character, the amount of increase in experience points increases.

In addition, in the event character screen image G400 shown in Fig. 7, "special tag bonus 20%" was set as the event bonus of the event character. This event bonus “Special Tag Bonus 20%” indicates that the amount of experience points increased by 20% when a special tag bonus event occurs.

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 13 , although the event character is assigned to the same practice item as the own skilled practice, the event character is not necessarily assigned to the same practice item as the own skilled practice, and is different from the own skilled practice. Sometimes they are assigned to practice items. It is determined based on predetermined probability information for each turn to which exercise item to assign the event character to.

In this regard, in the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7 , “skill practice rate up 10%” was set as an event bonus for the event character. This event bonus "professional practice rate up 10%" indicates that the probability that the event character is assigned to its own skill practice increases by 10%, and it becomes easier for the event character to be assigned to its own skill practice.

If the user further selects the processing object P923 in the state where the running practice is tentatively selected (that is, the cursor object C927 is pointing to the processing object P923), the running practice is confirmed as a practice item to be performed by the main character, and the main character Do running practice.

In addition, the practice screen image G900 also includes the processing object P950. The processing object P950 is associated with processing for returning to the screen image displayed one time ago. Accordingly, when the user selects the processing object P950 , the main command screen image G800 is displayed on the display unit 15 .

14 shows an example of an exercise result screen image. When any one of the practice items is determined as the practice item for the main character to perform, the exercise result screen image G1000 shown in FIG. 14 is displayed on the display unit 15 . In addition, since the upper area A1010 and the lower area A1020 of the exercise result screen image G1000 are the same as the upper area A810 and the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800, description is abbreviate|omitted here.

As shown in Fig. 14, the exercise result screen image G1000 includes a text area A1030. Text indicating the practice result of the main character character is displayed in the text area A1030. In other words, text indicating changes in various parameters as the main character character practices is displayed in the text area A1030.

Fig. 14 shows an exercise result screen image G1000 displayed when running exercise is selected (ie, processing object P923 is selected) in the state shown in Fig. 13 . In the text area A1030 shown in Fig. 14, as the main character performs running practice, the strength point increases by 4 points, the agility point increases by 15 points, the physical strength parameter decreases by 25 points, and the It is shown that the evaluation of the main character of the event character (Yabe) increased by 7 points.

Also, in the present embodiment, when the main character is practicing, a treasure chest discovery event occurs based on predetermined probability information. As described above, the treasure chest discovery event is an event that the dog finds the treasure chest and brings it. When the treasure chest discovery event occurs, as shown in FIG. 14 , the puppy character C1040 who has been looking for the treasure chest is displayed on the exercise result screen image G1000.

In addition, in each turn of the main part, an event related to the event character also occurs based on predetermined probability information. For example, an event occurs in which the main character has a conversation with the event character or performs special practice with the event character.

15 shows an example of an event screen image. The event screen image G1100 shown in FIG. 15 is displayed on the display unit 15 when an event related to an event character occurs. In addition, since the upper area A1110 and the lower area A1120 of the event screen image G1100 are the same as the upper area A810 and the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800, description is omitted here.

The event screen image G1100 indicates that an event related to the event character has occurred. The event screen image G1100 includes an event information area A1130, and information about an event that has occurred (event name, etc.) is displayed in the event information area A1130. The event character C1140, which became the basis for the occurrence of the event, is also displayed on the event screen image G1100.

The event screen image G1100 also includes a text area A1150. For example, text representing conversation between the main character character and the event character is displayed in the text area A1150. After that, as shown in Fig. 15, texts indicating changes in various parameters due to the occurrence of the event are displayed in the text area A1150. Specifically, in the text area A1150, for example, as an event occurs, experience point points for improving the ability parameter of the main character are improved or the main character grasping a trick for acquiring a special ability is shown. The special ability to grasp the abundance of experience points and tricks is affected by the ability and level of the event character. For example, the larger the numerical value of the event bonus shown in the second tap T422 of the event character screen image G400 of FIG. 7, the larger the numerical value and the like shown in the text area A1150. Alternatively, the numerical value and the like shown in the text area A1150 may be made larger as the rarity of each event character is higher. Further, when the exercise selected by the user and the mastery exercise of the event character appearing in the event are the same, the numerical value or the like displayed in the text area A1150 may be increased.

In addition, in a main part, you may make it set not only the event which generate|occur|produces based on probability information, but the event which must generate|occur|produce at the timing when the progress of a game reaches a reference|standard. For example, when a scenario has progressed to 10 turns, 20 turns, or 30 turns, a predetermined event (for example, a game event, etc.) may be made to occur without fail.

16 and 17 show an example of a capability change screen image. The ability change screen image G1200 shown in FIGS. 16 and 17 is a screen image for improving the ability of the main character, and is displayed on the display unit 15 when the processing object P846 of the main command screen image G800 is selected.

The ability change screen image G1200 includes a first area A1210 and a second area A1220. The first area A1210 includes a pitching ability tab T1211 and a fielding ability tab T1212. Changes in the basic ability parameter related to the pitching ability are displayed in the pitching ability tab T1211, and changes in the basic ability parameter related to the fielder ability are displayed in the fielder ability tab T1212.

As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17 , in the fielder ability tab T1212, the basic ability parameters related to the fielder ability are ballistic parameters, mitt parameters, power parameters, main parameters, thrust parameters, defense parameters, and muzzle parameters. The values before and after the change are displayed. In addition, the ballistic parameter, the mitt parameter, the power parameter, the main parameter, the traction parameter, and the defense power parameter are as above-mentioned (refer FIG. 12). The muzzle parameter indicates the superiority of the muzzle of the main character. The higher the value of the muzzle parameter, the better the muzzle is (it becomes difficult to make an error).

The second area A1220 includes a basic ability tab T1221 and a special ability tab T1222. As shown in FIG. 16 , in the basic ability tab T1221, the experience points (strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mental points) currently possessed by the main character are displayed. 16 shows a state in which the strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mental points currently possessed by the main character are 27 points, 20 points, 24 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively.

In the basic ability tab T1221, the main character's basic ability parameters (ballistic parameter, mitt parameter, power parameter, main force parameter, thrust parameter, defense power parameter, muzzle parameter) can be increased.

Further, in the basic ability tab T1221, in association with each basic ability parameter, an ability value necessary to increase the value of the basic ability parameter by one point from its current value is displayed. In the basic ability tab T1221 shown in FIG. 16 , for example, in order to increase the value of the ballistic parameter by 1 point from the current value, it is shown that 30 points of strength points, skill points, and mind points are each required. Also shown is that, for example, in order to raise the value of the traction parameter by one point from its current value, two points each are required for strength points, agility points, and skill points.

Further, in the basic capability tab T1221, processing objects P1223-1, P1223-2, P1223-3, P1223-4, P1223-5, P1223-6, and P1223-7 are displayed in association with each basic capability parameter.

For example, the processing object P1223-1 is associated with a trajectory parameter, and the processing object P1223-1 is associated with a process for increasing the trajectory parameter by one point in exchange for a predetermined experience point. The user can increase the ballistic parameter by 1 point from the current value by selecting the processing object P1223-1 to exchange them for strength points: 30 points, skill points: 30 points, and mental points: 30 points. For example, if the main character has all of these experience points, when the user selects the processing object P1223-1, the trajectory parameter increases by 1 point, and the experience point points necessary for it increase by the second It is subtracted from the "current experience point" in the area A1220. In other words, if the main character has enough experience points, each time the user selects the processing object P1223-1, the trajectory parameter gradually increases by 1 point, and the necessary experience points for it are displayed in the “current state” of the second area A1220. It is gradually subtracted from the experience points. However, as a matter of course, if the main character does not have all of these experience points, the ballistic parameter cannot be increased. For example, even if you have 40 strength points and 70 skill points, if you have 10 mental points, you cannot increase the ballistic parameter. In this way, about the parameter which cannot be raised because the experience point points are not enough, you may make it notify a user to that effect. For example, in the first area A1210 and the second area A1220, the name of the corresponding parameter or the brightness of the entire line may be lowered.

In addition, when the value of the trajectory parameter increases by one point as the user selects the processing object P1223-1, that effect is displayed in the first area A1210.

In addition, similarly to the processing object P1223-1, the other processing objects P1223-2 to P1223-7 are respectively related to a mitt parameter, a power parameter, a main parameter, a force parameter, a defense power parameter, and a muzzle parameter, and a predetermined experience point. A process for raising these parameters by one point in exchange for , becomes related.

When the user selects the special ability tab T1222 from the state shown in FIG. 16, it switches to the state shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 17 , the experience points (strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mental points) currently possessed by the main character are also displayed on the special ability tab T1222. Like Fig. 16, Fig. 17 shows the state where the strength points, agility points, skill points, change ball points, and mental points currently possessed by the main character are 27 points, 20 points, 24 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively. have.

In the special ability tab T1222, the main character can master the special ability by exchanging some or all of the experience points currently possessed by the main character. That is, in the special ability tab T1222, the special ability parameter of the main character may be changed by exchanging some or all of the experience points currently possessed by the main character. Here, the special ability parameter is a parameter indicating whether the main character has mastered various special abilities.

In the example shown in Fig. 16, the special abilities that the main character can master are "Chance ○)", "Large left pitcher ○", "Stolen base ○", "Running base ○", "Slow throw ○", "Difficult to get injured ◎ ' and "Average heater" are displayed.

“Chance ○” is a special ability that is strong against chance. If the main character is proficient in “Chance ○”, the basic ability of the main character will increase during the chance. "Big Left Pitcher ○" is a special ability that is strong against left-handed pitchers. If the main character is proficient in “Big Left Pitcher ○”, the basic ability of the main character will increase when the opposing pitcher is a left-handed pitcher. 「Stolen ○」 is a special ability that makes you good at stealing. If the main character is proficient in "Stolen ○", it will be easier for the main character to succeed in stealing.

"Throw ○" is a special ability that makes it difficult to miss a throw. If the main character is proficient in “Singing and Throwing ○”, it will be difficult for the main character to miss the throw. "Hard to get injured ◎" is a special ability that makes it harder to get injured. If the main character is proficient in “hard to be injured ◎”, the main character will hardly be injured. "Average Heater" is a special ability that makes it easier to hit hit balls. If the main character is proficient in "Average Heater", it becomes easier for the main character to hit a hit.

In addition, in the special ability tab T1222, in association with each special ability, the ability values necessary for the main character to master the special ability are displayed. In the special ability tab T1222 shown in Fig. 17, for example, in order to master the "Chance ○" for the main character, 15 points, 30 points, and 105 points are required for agility points, skill points, and mental points, respectively. Also, for example, it is shown that 48 points are required for strength points, agility points, and skill points, respectively, in order to master the skill of "throwing ○" for the main character.

Also, regarding the special ability that the main character has mastered, it is displayed that mastery has been completed. In the special ability tab T1222 shown in Fig. 17, it is displayed that the mastery of "difficult to be injured (double-circle)" has been completed.

In addition, in the special ability tab T1222, processing objects P1224-1, P1224-2, P1224-3, P1224-4, P1224-5, and P1224-6 are displayed in association with each special ability.

For example, the processing object P1224-1 is associated with "Chance ○", and the processing object P1224-1 is associated with processing for making the protagonist character master "Chance ○" in exchange for predetermined experience points. . By selecting the processing object P1224-1, the user can exchange it for agility points: 15 points, skill points: 30 points, and mind points: 105 points, so that the protagonist character can master "Chance ○". However, as a matter of course, if the main character does not possess this experience point, it is impossible to make the main character master “Chance ○”.

In addition, similarly to the processing object P1224-1, the other processing objects P1224-2 to P1224-6 are "large left pitcher ○", "stealed base ○", "running ○", "throwing ○", and "average heater", respectively. It is related to, and in place of a predetermined experience point, the processing for mastering this special ability in the main character character is related. In addition, since the main character has already acquired the special ability of "hard to be injured ?", the processing object is not related to "hard to be injured ?".

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 17, "Lv.1" is displayed in association with "running ○". Here, "Lv.1" indicates the skill level of "Running ○".

The skill level indicates whether the main character has grasped the knack for mastering the special ability, and the degree of the knack that the main character has grasped. When the skill level is 1 or higher, it is the case that the main character understands the knack for mastering the special ability, and the higher the knack level, the greater the degree of the knack grasped by the main character.

The higher the skill level, the less experience points are required to master the special abilities of the main character. In the state shown in Fig. 17, the number of experience points required to master "running ○" for the main character is less than usual.

At the beginning of the main part, the skill level of each special ability is set to 0. For example, in the main part, an event (trick event) may occur in which the event character teaches the main character how to use a special ability, and when such a trick event occurs, the skill level of the special ability rises ( 15).

In addition, in the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7 , “the trick event bonus 20%” was set as the event bonus of the event character. When the above skill event occurs, the skill level of the special ability increases and the experience points of the main character related to the special ability increase. The event bonus "tip event bonus 20%" indicates that, in such a case, the amount of increase in experience points becomes 20% larger than usual.

16 and 17 , the ability change screen image G1200 includes a processing object P1230. The processing object P1230 is associated with processing for returning to the screen image displayed one time ago. Accordingly, when the user selects the processing object P1230 , the main command screen image G800 is displayed on the display unit 15 .

In addition, the ability change screen image G1200 also includes the processing object P1240. The processing object P1240 is associated with processing for canceling the change in the ability of the main character and returning it to the state before the change. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P1240, the ability of the main character character returns to the state before the change.

In addition, the ability change screen image G1200 also includes the processing object P1250. The processing object P1250 is associated with processing for determining the ability change of the main character character. For this reason, when the user selects the processing object P1250, the ability of the main character character is determined to the state after the change.

When each section is completed, a section completion screen image is displayed on the display unit 15 . 18 shows an example of a section completion screen.

As shown in FIG. 18 , in the section completion screen image G1300, a scenario in progress (eg, high school A) and a completed section (eg, section 2) are displayed. The section completion screen image G1300 also displays experience points (total experience points) obtained so far and experience points (section experience points) obtained in the completed section. In addition, the section completion screen image G1300 also displays the reward (for example, a coin or a game item) obtained in the section.

In addition, after the section completion screen image G1300 is displayed, before the next section is started, the next time preview screen image may be displayed. Fig. 19 shows an example of a preview screen image of a next time.

In the present embodiment, after the section completion screen image G1300 is displayed and before the next section starts, an event in which the probability of finding a treasure chest in the next section becomes higher than usual occurs based on the predetermined probability information. When the event occurs, a notice screen image G1400 as shown in Fig. 19 is displayed, and the user is notified that the event has occurred.

As described above, when the four sections of the success part are completed, the development of the main character character is completed, and it can be used as an original character in a match in the stadium part. For example, when the fourth section is completed, a screen image for determining the ability parameters of the main character is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user can use the remaining experience points to increase the ability parameters of the main character. or acquire special abilities. In addition, in this screen image, the appearance of the main character character may be changed. Then, when the user performs a predetermined confirmation operation, the ability parameters of the main character character are determined and registered as an original character owned by the user. Once registered as an original character, the user cannot change the ability parameters. Thereafter, the user can check the newly registered ability parameters of the original character, etc., or participate in a game in addition to the order described later.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3 , the main part consists of 4 sections, and each section consists of 12 turns. . For this reason, in the present embodiment, by dividing the main part into four sections, it is possible to provide a motivation for temporarily ending the game or taking a break at the end of the section, so that when the user plays the success part, the It is possible to reduce the difficulty. Further, by dividing the main part into a plurality of sections, it is possible to branch the next section at the end of a section, so that it is also possible to diversify the game play.

The user will play four sections in nurturing the main character, but as shown in FIG. 18, information such as experience points is notified to the user in the section completion screen image G1300 when the section is cleared, Even if it is a game including a relatively large number of turns, such as a success part, the user can play the game without getting tired or feeling exhausted on the way. That is, when the user is notified of information such as experience points for the first time when the success part is finished, the user cannot fully grasp the development status of the main character in the middle of the success part, so that he or she feels tired or exhausted on the way. However, if the experience points or the like are notified at the end of the section, the user can be frequently notified of the upbringing status, so that it is possible to prevent getting tired or feeling exhausted on the way.

In addition, as shown in Fig. 19, in the notice screen image G1400, since an announcement regarding the next section can be made, it is possible to provide the user with the motivation to challenge the next section, so that the user succeeds on the way You can avoid having to stop the part.

Next, before explaining the stadium parts, the process for confirming the event character owned by a user, organization of an event deck, etc. are demonstrated.

In the home screen image G100 or the like shown in FIG. 2 , when the user selects the processing object P123, an event character menu screen image for performing various operations related to the event character is displayed on the display unit 15 . 20 shows an example of an event character menu screen image. In addition, the upper area A1510, the lower area A1520, and the processing object P130 in the event character menu screen image G1500 shown in Fig. 20 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Therefore, description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1530 in the event character menu screen image G1500 is for returning to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the home screen image G100), similarly to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200. .

The event character menu screen image G1500 shown in FIG. 20 includes processing objects P1540 to P1590. The processing object P1540 is associated with processing for organizing the event deck. When the user selects the processing object P1540, an event deck editing screen image for editing the event deck is displayed on the display unit 15 .

21 is an example of an event deck editing screen image. In addition, the upper area A1610, the lower area A1620, and the processing object P130 in the event deck editing screen image G1600 shown in Fig. 21 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Therefore, description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1630 in the event deck editing screen image G1600 returns to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the event character menu screen image G1500), similarly to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200. it is for

As shown in Fig. 21, the event deck editing screen image G1600 includes the event deck editing area A1640. In addition, in FIG. 21, the content displayed in the event deck editing area A1640 is abbreviate|omitted, and the content displayed in the event deck editing area A1640 is shown in FIG.

As shown in Fig. 22, the areas A1641, A1642 processing objects P1642, P1643, setting frames A1644-1 to A1644-5, and the skill practice area A1646 of the event deck editing screen image G1600 are, respectively, the event deck setting screen image G300 Since it is the same as the areas A341 and A342, the processing objects P342 and P343, the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5, and the skilled practice area A346, the description is omitted here. However, since the event deck editing screen image G1600 is not before the start of the success part, the one corresponding to the setting frame A345 for organizing the helper on the event deck is not set.

In addition, in this embodiment, a user can own multiple (for example, five) event decks. The number of event decks owned by the user may be fixed or may be increased by consuming Power Stones. Moreover, you may make it increase the number of event decks by completing the development of the main character character in the success part. For example, the event deck may increase by one when the user completes the development of a predetermined number (eg, three) of the main character, or the event deck increases by one when the user completes the development of one main character. do. In that case, you may set an upper limit (for example, up to 7) for the number of event decks. In addition, at the time of a game start, the number of event decks given to a user may be set to 1, for example, and you may make it increase gradually by the said process. In the event deck editing screen image G1600, it is possible to edit each of these plurality of event decks. For example, the user sets an event character in which the practice of the fielder is skilled practice in the event deck for training a fielder, and an event character in which the practice of the pitcher is skilled practice in the event deck for training the pitcher. set In addition, it is possible to use methods such as setting only female event characters on the event deck or setting only male event characters on the event deck, and use them separately according to the character development policy of the main character and the type of scenario in the success part. This becomes possible. Moreover, for example, a user sets the special effect character which will be described later in detail in the event deck used by the limited-time event.

Returning to Fig. 20, the processing object P1560 is associated with processing for selling an event character. When the user selects the processing object P1560, coins can be obtained by selling unnecessary event characters. In addition, the sold event character is not sold to other users, but simply deleted from the list owned by the user. In other words, "sale" here means offering event characters in exchange for coins.

The processing object P1570 is associated with processing for confirming the list of event characters owned by the user. When the user selects the processing object P1570, a list of event characters owned by the user is displayed on the display unit 15 . For example, when the user selects the processing object of the event character displayed in the list of event characters, the event character screen image G400 can be displayed.

The processing object P1580 is associated with processing for confirming the illustrated book of the event character. The illustrated book is a list of event characters that exist in the game. When the user selects the processing object P1580, the illustrated book is displayed on the display unit 15 . In the illustrated book, it is possible to distinguish between an event character that the user has owned and an event character that has not yet been owned. In addition, in the illustrated book, you may make it the information (for example, an image and a name) of an event character which you have not yet possessed to be made to be hidden.

The processing object P1590 is associated with processing for expanding the list of event characters. In the present embodiment, the upper limit is set to the number of event characters that the user can possess. For example, the user can increase the upper limit of the number of event characters the user can possess by consuming Power Stones.

The processing object P1550 is associated with processing for reinforcing an event character. Reinforcement here is to increase the level of the event character, which is different from the development of the main character in the success part. Reinforcement of the event character is performed in order to improve the effect that occurs in the success part when the event character is set on the event deck (that is, to efficiently develop the main character). In this embodiment, so-called game character synthesis is performed. That is, an event character to be strengthened (hereinafter referred to as a 'base character') can be strengthened by consuming another event character (hereinafter referred to as a 'material character'). When the user selects the processing object P1540, a base character selection screen image for selecting a base character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

23 shows an example of a base character selection screen image. In addition, the upper area A1710, the lower area A1720, and the processing object P130 in the base character selection screen image G1700 shown in FIG. 23 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Therefore, the description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1730 in the base character selection screen image G1700, like the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200, returns to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the event character menu screen image G1500). it is for

The base character selection screen image G1700 includes an event character list area A1740. The event character list area A1740 is the same as the event character list area A640 of the event character change screen image G600. When the user selects any one of the event characters displayed in the event character list area A1740 as the base character, a reinforcement screen image for strengthening the base character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

24 shows an example of a reinforced screen image. Here, the reinforcement screen image G1800 displayed when "Hayakawa" whose rarity is "R" is selected as the base character is shown. In addition, the upper area A1810, lower area A1820, and processing object P130 in the enhanced screen image G1800 shown in Fig. 24 are the same as the upper area A110, lower area A120, and processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. A description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1830 in the reinforcement screen image G1800 is for returning to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the base character selection screen image G1700), similarly to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200. .

In the example shown in Fig. 24, the base character area A1840 includes the gauge area A1841. In the gauge area A1841, the current experience value of the base character and the acquired experience value required for the next level can be identified.

In the material character area A1850, ten setting frames for setting the material character are provided. When the user selects any one of the setting frames of the material character area A1850, a material character selection screen image for selecting the material character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

25 shows an example of a material character selection screen image. In addition, the upper area A1910, the lower area A1920, and the processing object P130 in the material character selection screen image G1900 shown in Fig. 25 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Therefore, description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1930 in the material character selection screen image G1900 is for returning to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the reinforcement screen image G1800), similarly to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200. .

In the example shown in Fig. 25, the material character selection screen image G1900 includes the event character list area A1940. The event character list area A1940 is the same as the event character list area A640 of the event character change screen image G600. However, as shown in Fig. 25, among the event characters owned by the user, other than the base character is displayed in the event character list area A1940. Incidentally, the event characters set on the event deck (event characters indicated as "in use" in Fig. 25) or locked event characters may not be selected as material characters.

In addition, in this embodiment, if the same event character as the base character is set as the material character, the highest level of the base character can be increased based on the given probability. In the event character list area A1940, this probability is displayed overlaid on the event character. For example, if you select “Hayakawa” with a rarity of “R” as a material character, there is a 100% chance that the base character’s “Hayakawa”’s maximum level will increase, and the rarity will change to “Hayakawa” of “PN”. When selected as a material character, there is a 30% chance to increase the base character's "Hayakawa"'s maximum level. In the present embodiment, the probability that the highest level increases is determined based on the rarity of the base character and the rarity of the material character. In other words, the probability of increasing the highest level is determined based on the difference in the relative rarities of the base character and the material character. For example, if you select a material character with a rarity equal to or higher than that of the base character, there is a 100% chance, and if you select a material character with a rarity lower than that of the base character, 100 with a probability of less than %. For example, for a material character having a rarity of two or more levels lower than that of the base character, even if it has the same name as the base character, the probability of increasing the highest level may be 0%. Further, for example, the higher the rarity of the base character, the lower the probability may be. In this way, it is possible to reduce the probability of increasing the highest level for a heavy user who possesses a base character with high rarity. Further, the higher the rarity of the material character, the higher the probability may be. In addition, although the highest level increases one by one, you may make it so that a probability increases as the current highest level increases from an initial value. In other words, the higher the number of times the base character's highest level is increasing, the higher the probability that the next highest level will increase.

The user selects 10 or less of the event characters displayed in the event character list area A1940 as material characters. Here, in the event character list area A1940, a case in which a plurality of material characters can be selected collectively will be described. However, the material characters may be selected one by one. In addition, if the user selects the event character already selected as the material character once more, the selection as the material character can be canceled.

The material character selection screen image G1900 includes an area A1950 for displaying a level that increases when the base character is reinforced with the currently selected material character or coins required for reinforcement. The experience points for acquiring the base character differ depending on the material character. For example, the higher the rarity of the material character, the more experience points you can acquire or the more coins you need. By calculating the experience points and required coins that can be obtained from the currently selected material character, the level and coins shown in area A1950 are calculated. When the user selects or removes a material character from the event character list area A1940, the display of the area A1950 is updated.

Further, the material character selection screen image G1900 includes processing objects P1960 and P1970. The processing object P1970 is associated with the processing of deselecting the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1970, all selection of the material character is canceled, and selection of the material character can be performed again. On the other hand, the processing object P1960 is associated with the processing of completing the selection of the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1960, it returns to the reinforcement screen image G1800.

Fig. 26 shows a reinforcement screen image G1800 when a material character is selected. As shown in Fig. 26, in the material character area 1850, the material character selected in the event character list area A1940 of the material character selection screen image G1900 is displayed. In the example of Fig. 26, two of the same "Hayakawa" and "Tsuruya" as the base character are selected as the material characters. As shown in Fig. 26, by using two "Hayakawa" as material characters, it is possible to increase the maximum level of "Hayakawa" of the base character, so the probability is displayed overlaid with "Hayakawa", which is the material character. . On the other hand, "Tsuruya" is not "Hayakawa" of the base character, and even if used as a material character, the maximum level of "Hayakawa" cannot be increased, so the probability is not displayed. In this way, in the material character area 1850, before reinforcing the base character, it is possible to identify a material character capable of increasing the highest level and a material character whose highest level cannot be increased, so that the probability is further identified it is possible to do Also, when the user selects a material character, similarly to area A1950, the base character area A1840 may be displayed with a level that increases when the base character is strengthened with the current material character or coins required for reinforcement.

Further, the enhanced screen image G1800 includes processing objects P1860 and P1870. The processing object P1870 is associated with processing for deselecting the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1870, the selection of the material character is canceled, and the selection of the material character can be re-selected. On the other hand, the processing object P1860 is associated with processing for strengthening the base character. When the user selects the processing object P1860, after a predetermined screen effect is executed, a reinforcement result window for displaying the reinforcement result of the base character is displayed on the display unit 15 . In addition, when the number of coins held by the user is less than the coins required for strengthening the base character, reinforcement is not performed even if the user selects the processing object P1860. In this case, the processing object P1860 may be grayed out so that selection cannot be made.

27 shows the reinforcement result window. As shown in FIG. 27 , in the reinforcement result window G2000, the experience points acquired by the base character, the level change of the base character, the change in the highest level of the base character, and the like are displayed. In the example shown in Fig. 27, the base character is at the level indicated by the base character area A1840. Further, when there are a plurality of material characters capable of increasing the highest level of the base character, it is determined for each of these plurality of material characters whether it is possible to increase the highest level based on a predetermined probability. Here, "Hayakawa" with a probability of increasing the base character's maximum level 100% and Hayakawa with 30% were selected as material characters, so the base character's maximum level is definitely increased by 1, with a 30% probability. 1 more will increase. In the example shown in FIG. 27, it succeeded also with 30% of "Hayakawa", and the highest level of the base character is increased by two.

The processing object P2010 is associated with processing for returning to the reinforcement screen image G1800. Further, when the user selects the processing object P2010, the user may return directly to the reinforcement screen image G1800, or when the processing object P441 is selected after the event character screen image G400 of the base character is displayed, the user may return to the reinforcement screen image G1800 do.

Next, stadium parts are demonstrated. In the stadium part, the user can compete using the original character nurtured in the success part. In the stadium part, there are a match that can be played during any period (hereinafter referred to as a normal match) and a match that can be played for a limited time (hereinafter referred to as a match of a limited-time event).

The user edits the game order when playing a game in the stadium part. An order is a combination of original characters participating in a game among original characters owned by the user. Here, it is possible to edit an order for a normal game and an order for a game for a limited-time event. In the home screen image G100 or the like in FIG. 2 , when the user selects the processing object P122 , the My Team menu screen image for editing the order is displayed on the display unit 15 .

Fig. 28 shows an image of the My Team menu screen. In addition, the upper area A2110, the lower area A2120, and the processing object P130 in the My Team menu screen image G2100 shown in Fig. 28 are the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. Since it is the same, description is abbreviate|omitted here. In addition, the processing object P2130 in the My Team menu screen image G2100 is similar to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200 for returning to the previously displayed screen image (i.e., the home screen image G100, etc.). will be.

The My Team menu screen image G2100 shown in FIG. 28 includes processing objects P2140 to P2170. The processing object P2140 is associated with processing for editing an order in a normal game. When the user selects the processing object P2040, a normal order editing screen image for editing an order in a normal game is displayed on the display unit 15 .

Fig. 29 shows a normal order editing screen image. As shown in Fig. 29, the normal order editing screen image G2200 includes a starting order area A2210 and a candidate player area A2220. The starting order area A2210 is for designating an original character of a starting order who participates at the start of a game among original characters owned by the user. The candidate player area A2220 is for designating, among the original characters owned by the user, an original character on standby who does not participate in the game at the start of the game but can participate in the middle.

In addition, when the user taps the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 and the candidate player area A2220, you may make it display outlines, such as the ability of the original character. Moreover, when the user presses and operates the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 and the candidate player area A2220, you may make it display details, such as the ability of the original character.

For example, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 to the candidate player area A2220, this original character is displayed in the candidate player area A2220, and the original character of the drop destination is displayed in the starting order area A2210 do. Conversely, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in the candidate player area A2220 to the starting order area A2210, this original character is displayed in the starting order area A2210, and the original character of the drop destination is displayed in the candidate player area A2220. In this way, the user can exchange the original character of the starting order and the original character on standby.

Also, for example, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in either the starting order area A2210 or the candidate player area A2220 to the drag area A2230, a screen image showing a list of original characters that are neither in the starting order nor waiting It is displayed on this display unit 15 . When the user selects an original character to be placed in the order from this screen image, the original character can be exchanged with the original character dropped in the drag area A2230.

The processing object P2240 is associated with processing for automatically setting an order. When the user selects the processing object P2240, an order is automatically set so as to be an optimal combination of the original characters owned by the user. For example, an order is automatically set so that an original character with a high ability parameter enters the order with priority. Also, for example, the order is automatically set so that the total of the experience point points acquired by the original character in the success part enters the order in the order of the largest.

The processing object P2250 is associated with processing for returning the order to the original state. The original state is the time point before changing the order in the normal order editing screen image G2200. When the user selects the processing object P2250, it returns to the order at the time of display of the normal order editing screen image G2200.

The organizational force area A2260 indicates the organizational force in the current order. The meaning of the organizational force is the same as that described in the area A115 of the home screen image G100. That is, the organizational power is a value calculated from the ability parameters of the original characters in the order, and the higher this value, the easier it is to win the match. When the order is changed, the numerical value indicated by the organizational power area A2260 also changes.

The processing object P2270 is associated with processing for setting the pitcher's use method. When the user selects the processing object P2270, a screen image for setting the method of using the pitcher among the original characters owned by the user is displayed on the display unit 15 . In this screen image, it is possible to designate an original character who can participate in a game from among the pitcher's original characters. In addition, it is possible to designate the method of use as a pitcher (selection/base fight/finish) from among the original characters that can participate in the game. Alternatively, if the pitcher has to set a pitch interval for a predetermined number of games to participate in a game as a pitcher, the next available game is displayed.

The processing object P2280 is for returning to the previously displayed screen image (that is, the My Team menu screen image G2100) similarly to the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200.

Returning to Fig. 28 , the processing object P2150 is associated with processing for editing the order of the match in the limited-time event. When the user selects the processing object P2150, a limited-time order editing screen image for editing the order of the match in the limited-time event is displayed on the display unit 15 .

Fig. 30 shows a limited-time order editing screen image. The starting order area A2310, the candidate player area A2320, the drag area A2330, the processing objects P2350, P2370, P2380, and the organization power area A2360 of the limited-time order editing screen image G2300 shown in Fig. 30 are the starting of the normal order editing screen image G2200, respectively. This is the same as the order area A2210, the candidate player area A2220, the drag area A2230, the processing objects P2250, P2270, P2280, and the organization power area A2260. However, the time-limited order editing screen image G2300 differs from the normal order editing screen image G2200 in that the score bonus is displayed in the starting order area A2310.

Here, the score bonus will be described. In a limited-time event, if you set a specific event character (hereafter referred to as 'special effect character') on the event deck and place the original character nurtured into the order to play a match, a score bonus that increases the score that can be obtained after the match is granted. it is made to be A special effect character can be said to be an event character in which an effect not found in a normal period occurs in a specific period. That is, the special effect character can be used for a normal period other than the specific period, but the effect that occurs during the specific period does not occur in the normal period. Whether or not the event character is a special effect character may be identified by the event deck setting screen image G300, the event character change screen image G600, or the like.

31 : shows an example of the event deck setting screen image G600 in a time-limited event. As shown in Fig. 31, in the event character list area A640, information indicating the degree of the effect is displayed on the event character that is the special effect character. For example, when an original character raised by putting "Yamaguchi" into the event deck is used in a match, a score bonus of "5%" is generated. Similarly, if you use the original character raised by putting “Tsuruya” with “R” into the event deck in a match, it indicates that a “3%” score bonus will occur, and “Tsuruya” with “N” rarity This indicates that a score bonus of "2%" is generated when the original character raised by putting it in the event deck is used in a match. In this way, the degree of the score bonus may change according to the rarity.

In addition, if a plurality of special effects characters are included in the event deck, if the original characters raised using this event deck are used as a match for a limited-time event, the total value of the score bonus of each of the plurality of special effects characters The score may increase, or only the highest score bonus among these plural special effects characters may be reflected.

In addition, when a special effect character is organized in an event deck and the success part is played, an effect according to the said special effect character will occur, and you may make it advantageous for the upbringing of a main character character. In addition, you may make it also make it generate|occur|produce the effect in a success part only for a specific period. That is, the effect which arises by the special effect character is not limited to stadium parts, You may generate|occur|produce in success parts.

Fig. 32 shows an example of the event deck setting area A340 of the event deck setting screen image G300 in the limited-time event. As shown in Fig. 32, information indicating the degree of the effect is displayed in the setting frame A344-4 in which the event character, which is the special effect character, is incorporated in the event character list area A640. That is, in the setting frame A344-4, since the special character "Yamaguchi" is built-in, "5%" which is the score bonus of "Yamaguchi" is displayed. In addition, when a plurality of special effect characters are included in the event deck, the total value of the score bonus generated by the plurality of special effect characters may be displayed in the event deck setting area A340.

In the limited-time event, if the accumulated value of the scores obtained by the user exceeds the reference value, a reward is given to the user. As for this reference value, a plurality of reference values may be determined step by step. In addition, you may improve the reward given when there are many reference values, when the reference value is exceeded. Further, the ranking of the user may be determined based on the accumulated score when the limited-time event has ended, and a reward according to the ranking may be provided to the user.

Fig. 33 shows the conditions under which a score bonus occurs. In the example of FIG. 33, the special effect characters are "E3" and "E8". As shown in Fig. 33, since the original character "P1" contains "E3" in the event deck used in the success part, a score bonus occurs when it is placed in the order of the match of the limited-time event. Similarly, for the original character "P3", since "E3" and "E8" are included in the event deck used in the success part, a score bonus will occur when placed in the order of a match for a limited-time event. On the other hand, since the original character "P2" does not contain special effects in the event deck used in the success part, no score bonus is generated even if it is placed in the order of the match of the limited-time event.

Returning to Fig. 30, in the starting order area A2310, the value of the score bonus for each original character placed in the order and the total value of the score bonus that can occur in the current order are displayed. In addition, a score bonus may generate|occur|produce only for the original character of a starting order, and may generate|occur|produce for both original characters of a starting order and standby.

The processing object P2340 is similar to the processing object P2240 in that it is for automatically determining an order. However, when the user selects the processing object P2340, it is possible to select whether the order is determined by giving priority to the score bonus or whether the order is determined by giving priority to the ability. When the order is determined with priority on the score bonus, the order is automatically determined with priority over the value of the score bonus assigned to the original character. The case where the capability is given priority is the same as the case where the processing object P2240 is selected.

Returning to Fig. 28 , the processing object P2160 is associated with processing for displaying a list of original characters owned by the user. The user can check the list of original characters he owns before editing the order. In addition, the processing object P2170 is associated with the processing for editing the original character owned by a user. The user can edit the name and appearance of the original character. However, the ability parameters of the original character whose success part has been developed are fixed and cannot be edited.

The user edits the order as described above and plays the stadium part. For example, in the home screen image G100 shown in FIG. 2, when a user selects the process object P150, the home screen image G100 is switched to display of stadium parts.

Fig. 34 shows the home screen image G100 when the processing object P150 is selected. The processing object P151 shown in Fig. 34 is associated with a process for playing a normal game, and the processing object P152 is associated with a process for playing a game for a limited time event. When the user selects either of the processing objects P151 and P152, the selected processing object is displayed in the center of the home screen image G100.

In the example shown in FIG. 34, when the user selects the process object P151 in the state where the process object P151 is displayed in the center, a normal game is performed. On the other hand, when the user selects the processing object P152 in a state where the processing object P152 is displayed in the center, a match of the limited-time event is executed. As described below, the flow itself of the regular matches and the limited-time event matches is the same.

Fig. 35 shows the flow of a match in a normal match and a limited-time event. As shown in Fig. 35, when the user selects the processing objects P151 and P152, a screen image indicating a plurality of opponent candidates is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user selects an opponent from among the plurality of opponent candidates. Select (S2). The opponent candidate is another user's team. For example, another user's team similar to the user's rank or the team's organizational power is selected as the opponent candidate.

When an opponent is selected, a screen image for changing the order is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user can change the order of the normal game or the order of the game for a limited time event (S4). This screen image is the same as the normal order editing screen image G2200 or the limited-time order editing screen image G2300.

When the match order is determined, the status of the original character included in the order is determined (S6). As for the state, any one of the states of a plurality of stages (eg, stage 6) is randomly assigned to each original character of the order. The better the condition, the better the parameters of the original character's ability, so that they can play an active part in the match.

The user selects one to be used in the game among the game items he owns (S8). The game items that can be selected here are to advance the match advantageously or to increase the score obtainable in the match.

When the user selects a game item, a match is started (S10). The match may proceed automatically from the start to the end, or only when a predetermined scene is reached, the user may be made to operate the original character participating in the game. Moreover, you may make a user operate all the scenes of a game.

When the match is finished, a screen image indicating the result of the match is displayed on the display unit 15 (S12). As the result of the game, the victory or defeat of the game, the score of each team, and the score obtained by the user are displayed on the screen image. The score is determined based on the content and result of the match. However, a better score is given to the one operated by the user rather than the case where the match is automatically advanced. For example, when an original character hits a hit or a home run based on a user's operation, the game is automatically advanced, and a higher score is given to the user than when the same original character hits a hit or a home run. .

When the match result is displayed, the user's latest ranking is displayed on the display unit 15 (S14). The ranking may be determined based on the cumulative value of the scores obtained in the match, or the ranking may be determined based on the maximum value of the scores obtained in the present or past matches. In addition, as described above, in the case of a game of a limited-time event, if the original character to which the score bonus is given is included in the order, the score calculated by the same calculation method as in the normal game increases by the amount of the score bonus. For example, when a match of a limited-time event is played in the order shown in Fig. 30, the score increases by 14% compared to the case where the same result is left in a normal match.

As described above, the user aims to increase the ranking by playing the stadium part to obtain a score. The ranking is changed every predetermined period. The predetermined period may be one week, one day, or one month. In addition, you may make it possible to confirm in the display part 15 the best score which came out from the play of the stadium parts which each user performed between predetermined period (for example, one week). When each user gives the highest score within a predetermined period, the score displayed on the display unit 15 is overwritten. When the predetermined period ends, the score is cleared, and the highest score in the next predetermined period is newly displayed. And in this embodiment, when the user's highest score given during this predetermined period is overtaken by the user of a friend, a challenge letter arrives automatically from this friend. The arrival of a challenge letter from a friend is notified to the user by being displayed as shown in the processing object P170 in Fig. 34 . In addition, when a challenge sheet arrives from a plurality of friends, the number of sheets of the challenge sheet may also be notified on the same screen. In addition, in the user terminal 10 of the friend, it is possible to confirm that a challenge letter has been sent to the user. That is, in the user terminal 10 on the friend side, the friend is notified that the challenge letter has been sent. In addition, the challenge field is not limited to a score, You may make it convey when any evaluation and evaluation value on a game, for example, a ranking, etc. are overtaken. In addition, it is also possible to set the score to the same value or to arrive when the rankings are similar, that is, when the user is caught up by a friend. In addition, the exchange of a challenge field may be made for all the friends of a certain user, and may be made for only some friends. In this case, for example, only friends of the same or close rank as the user's rank may be targeted. Alternatively, based on the degree of intimacy between the user and the friend (for example, set based on the number of matches, chat history, etc.), only friends with a degree of intimacy greater than or equal to a predetermined level may be targeted for the challenge.

36 is an explanatory diagram of a conductive field. The t-axis shown in FIG. 36 is a time axis. Here, it is assumed that the user A and the user B are in a friendship relationship. At a certain point in time t1, user A has obtained a score of 150000 points, and at a point in time t2 that is later than time t1, user B has obtained a score of 120000 points. When user B plays the stadium part and acquires a score of 180000 points and outruns user A, a challenge letter is automatically sent from user B to user A.

When the challenge letter is sent, as shown in Fig. 34, a processing object P170 for competing with the friend who sent the challenge letter is displayed on the home screen image G100. In the processing object P170, information (user name, etc.) capable of recognizing the friend who sent the challenge letter may be displayed. Here, when a challenge letter from a plurality of friends arrives, the number of cards may be displayed in the vicinity of or overlapping the processing object P170. For example, when 3 challenge cards arrive, the number 3 is displayed. In addition, the method of notifying the number of conductive sheets is not limited to the method of displaying a number, You may make it notify according to the number of images. When the user selects the processing object P170, a match is performed with a friend who has sent a challenge letter. In addition, since this match is mainly conducted for the purpose of promoting competition with friends, game tickets may not be consumed or medals or the like may not be obtained.

In addition, the challenge letter may be restricted so that a new challenge letter cannot be sent to the same friend unless a predetermined time has elapsed. For example, if 3 hours or more have not elapsed, a new conductive sheet may not be sent. In addition, you may make it so that the expiration date (for example, 1 day) for which it can be used is set for the electrically conductive field. The validity period is set in the challenge field in order to prevent the challenge sheet for each user from becoming too many. When the expiration date has passed, the processing object P170 of FIG. 34 is erased. When there are multiple challenge sheets, the number of sheets of challenge sheets recorded together with the processing object P170 sequentially decreases each time the expiration date of each challenge sheet passes. By doing in this way, it is possible to prevent a large number of conductive fields from accumulating with respect to the user.

Further, in the present embodiment, when a friend outruns the user's score, a challenge arrives and the user can compete with the friend to provide an opportunity to outrun the friend again. However, other privileges may be provided to the user. As this privilege, what is necessary is just for a user to give a good score in a stadium part. In other words, what is necessary is just a privilege that affects the relationship (difference) between the user's score and the friend's score. For example, by giving a game ticket to a user and providing an opportunity to play a game, you may make it provide the opportunity to surpass the score of a friend again. In addition, for example, it may be a privilege for a user to make a good score by advancing a game advantageously. In this case, a game item that lowers the opponent's ability parameter or a game item that increases the ability parameter of the user's original character may be used. By using these game items, the opponent becomes weak or the user's original character becomes strong, so that it becomes easy for the user to obtain a good score in a match. That is, by providing this game item to a user, you may make it possible to provide an opportunity for a user to surpass the score of a friend again.

As described above, the game system 1 has various techniques. For example, the game system 1 displays the bonus detail screen image G500 so that the level of the event character and the effect occurring in the success part are matched. They have the skills to make relationships easy to understand. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as a first technique.

In addition, the game system 1 motivates the setting of various event characters on the event deck by giving a score bonus when an original character developed by setting a special effect character on the event deck is placed in an order and playing a game for a limited time event. have the skills to provide. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as a second technique.

In addition, the game system 1 displays the mastery exercises of the event characters set on the event deck in the skill practice areas A346 and A1646, so that it is easy to determine which exercise deck is advantageous for training by selecting which exercise in the success part. You have the skills to make it easy to understand. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as a third technique.

In addition, the game system 1 makes it impossible for the original character to acquire a super special ability unless an event character with high rarity is set on the event deck when the user selects a normal scenario, and the user has a limited time In the scenario of , it has a technique that allows the original character to acquire a super special ability even if this event character is not set on the event deck. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as a fourth technique.

Moreover, the game system 1 has a technique which promotes competition among users by arriving at a challenge when a certain user is overtaken by a friend user's score. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as the fifth technique.

Hereinafter, the details of the first to fifth techniques will be mainly described.

[3. Functions realized in game system (1)]

Fig. 37 is a functional block diagram showing a function related to the present invention among functions realized in the game system 1; In the present embodiment, the case where the main processing related to the game is executed in the user terminal 10 is described. As described in the modified example described later, the main processing related to the game may be executed in the server 30 .

In addition, among the functions realized in the server 30 , the data storage unit 3000 is mainly realized by the storage unit 32 , and each of the other functions is mainly realized by the control unit 31 . Among the functions realized in the user terminal 10 , the individual data storage unit 1000 is mainly realized by the storage unit 12 , and each of the other functions is mainly realized by the control unit 11 .

First, functions common to the first to fifth techniques will be described, and then, functions related to each of the first to fifth techniques will be described. Here, the data storage unit 3000 , the processing unit 3010 , the individual data storage unit 1000 , and the request unit 1010 will be described as functions common to the first to fifth techniques.

The data storage unit 3000 stores data necessary for a game executed in the game system 1 . Here, as an example of the data stored in the data storage unit 3000, the user table TBL 301, the event character table TBL 302, the event deck table TBL 303, the original character table TBL 304, and the order table are used. The TBL 305 will be described.

38 shows an example of the user table TBL 301 . As shown in Fig. 38, the user table TBL 301 is a data table indicating information about each user. For example, the user table TBL 301 includes fields described below.

A "user ID" field shows identification information for specifying a user. The "profile" field represents user registration information, such as a user name and self-introduction sentence.

The "friend" field represents identification information for specifying another user in a friendship relationship with the user. For example, each user can make a friend request for becoming a friend relationship with another user. For example, user A performs operation for making a friend request at the time of completion|finish of success part with respect to user B who owns the event character set in the event deck as a helper in the success part. When user B performs an operation to approve the friend request, user A and user B become friends, the user ID of user B is stored in the "friend" field of user A, and the user is stored in the "friend" field of user B. A's user ID is stored. The operation for approving the friend request can be performed from, for example, a screen image displayed when the processing object P130 is selected.

The "user parameter" field indicates various parameters associated with the user. This parameter may be used in a success part or a stadium part, and may be for acquiring a game item. For example, the "user parameter" field indicates success points, match tickets, power stones, mini stones (game items that can be exchanged for power stones when a certain number is collected), coins, draw points, and medals. Further, for parameters that are recovered after a predetermined time elapses, such as a success point or a match ticket, the remaining time until recovery may be stored. In addition, for example, the rank of the current order and the organizational power of the order may be stored in the "user parameter" field.

The "item" field indicates a game item owned by the user. The "stadium" field shows the result of the match in the stadium part (history), the score acquired by the user (total score, the highest score), and the current ranking of the user. In the present embodiment, since there are regular matches and time-limited events, the results, scores, and rankings are stored for each. A "challenge" field shows the achievement status of the game task in a challenge part, and a user.

The "challenge field" field indicates a challenge that the user has received from a friend. When a user receives a challenge letter from a friend, the friend's user ID is stored in the "challenge field" field. In addition, time information regarding a conductive field may be stored in the "conductive field" field. This time information indicates, for example, a time when a friend surpasses a user's score or an expiration date of a challenge. The user may be able to play against a friend using a challenge map within a time limit determined based on time information. A challenge field whose expiration date has passed may be deleted from the "challenge field" field.

Fig. 39 shows an example of the event character table TBL (302). As shown in Fig. 39, the event character table TBL 302 is a data table indicating a list of event characters owned by each user. For example, the event character table TBL 302 includes fields described below.

A "user ID" field shows identification information for specifying a user. The "event character ID" field indicates identification information for specifying an event character owned by the user. The "Name" field indicates the name of the event character. The "lock" field indicates whether the event character is locked. The "leader" field indicates identification information for specifying an event character set as a leader.

The "rarity" field indicates the rarity of the event character. The meaning of rarity is the same as rarity. In addition, "rarity" is a form other than the form described in this embodiment, for example, "1, 2, ... ”, “A, B, … ”, “Gold, silver, … It is also possible to express it as '.

The "attribute" field indicates the attribute (classification) of the event character. For example, any one of a plurality of types of attributes is associated with each event character. Here, each event character has an attribute of any one of "player", "manager", and "reinforcement material". Event characters with the attribute of "player" can participate in matches in the success part and can contribute to victory. On the other hand, event characters with the attribute of "Manager" or "Reinforcement Material" do not participate in the match in the success part. For this reason, data is not stored in the "Position" field or the "Specific practice" field of the event character of the "Manager" or "Reinforcement material" attribute. Instead, if the value of the event character’s “Event Power” field, which is the “Manager” attribute, is higher than the “Player” attribute, the event character is used for reinforcement, ” and “Manager” attribute event characters can acquire more experience points.

The "Position" field indicates the baseball position in which the event character is most confident. The "skill practice" field indicates the practice item in which the event character is most confident. The "gender" field indicates the gender of the event character. For example, in the success part, for a specific scenario, only one of male and female event characters may be set to be set on the event deck.

The "experience value" field indicates the experience value of the event character. The "level" field indicates the level of the event character. The "highest level" field indicates the upper limit of the level of the event character. The "profile" field indicates profile information of the event character.

The "event" field indicates event information related to an event associated with an event character. In other words, the "event" field represents event information regarding an event that may occur in the game when event characters are organized in the event deck. The event information is information indicating the name or content of an event. For example, the event information includes information about the type or amount of experience point points or ability parameters granted to the main character by the occurrence of the event. In addition, information indicating the probability or condition of occurrence of an event may be stored in the "event" field.

The "Bonus" field indicates bonus information about the bonus associated with the event character. In other words, the "bonus" field indicates bonus information regarding a bonus that occurs in the game when event characters are organized on the event deck. Bonus information is information indicating the name or content of the bonus. For example, when the occurrence probability of a specific event is increased by organizing event characters on the event deck, the bonus information includes information indicating the event and information indicating the degree of increase in the occurrence probability. For example, the "bonus" field is associated with a level and an acquisition bonus.

The "ability parameter" field indicates the ability parameter of the event character. For example, when a match event occurs in the success part, the event character organized in the event deck participates in the match as a teammate of the main character character. When such a match event is executed, the ability parameters of the event character are referenced.

The "event power" field indicates the event power, which is an index of the degree to which an event character becomes advantageous when it is set on the event deck. The "player ability" field represents the player ability, which is a height index of the ability of the event character as a player.

Fig. 40 shows an example of the event deck table TBL (303). As shown in FIG. 40, the event deck table TBL 303 is a data table which shows the state of the event deck of each user. For example, the event deck table TBL 303 includes fields described below.

A "user ID" field shows identification information for specifying a user. The "Name" field indicates the name of the event deck. In the present embodiment, the user cannot own a plurality of event decks, and a name can be set for each event deck.

The "first setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-1 of the event deck setting area A340. When the event character is not set in the setting frame A344-1, the "first setting frame" field is left blank. Similarly, the "second setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-2. The "third setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-3. The "fourth setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-4. The "5th setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-5.

41 shows an example of the original character table TBL 304 . As shown in Fig. 41, the original character table TBL 304 is a data table indicating a list of original characters developed by each user or main character characters under development. For example, the original character table TBL 304 includes fields described below.

A "user ID" field shows identification information for specifying a user. The "original character ID" field represents identification information for specifying an original character or a main character character being developed. The "Name" field indicates the name of the original character or the main character being developed. The "Position" field indicates the baseball position in which the original character or the main character under development is most confident.

“Ability parameters”, “physical parameters”, “motivation parameters”, “experience points” and “evaluation” fields are the ability parameters, physical strength parameters, motivation parameters, experience points, and other fields of the original character or the main character being developed. Represents an evaluation from a character. In addition, as for the original character, since the development has been completed, the "physical parameter", "motivation parameter", "experience point point", and "evaluation" fields may be blank. In addition, the "experience point points" field may store the total value of the experience point points acquired in the success part along with the experience point points remaining at the present time.

The "event deck" field indicates the contents of the event deck used when cultivating an original character or a main character character under development. In the success part, the leader event character of another user can be added as a helper, so the event character set in the event deck set by the user, the helper's event character, and each event character ID are stored in the "event deck" field will become

The "nurture status" field shows the current upbringing status. That is, the "nurture status" field indicates whether or not training has been completed or is in progress. In addition, in the case of fostering, the "nurture status" field may also indicate the current in-game time. In addition, the skill level of the main character character may be stored in the "nurture situation" field.

Note that the data stored in the original character table TBL 304 is not limited to the above example. For example, you may make it store in the original character table TBL 304 basic information about an original character or a main character character under development (an image showing appearance or high school from which you came). In addition, for example, you may make it store in the original character table TBL 304 the skill level which changes in success part, and the state of a main character character.

42 shows an example of the order table TBL 305 . As shown in Fig. 42, the order table TBL 305 is a data table indicating the contents of an order set by the user. The order table TBL 305 includes fields described below.

A "user ID" field shows identification information for specifying a user. The "order type" field indicates the type of order. Here, information indicating whether the order is a normal order or an order for a limited-time event is stored. The "order" field stores the original character ID included in the order.

In addition, the data memorize|stored by the data storage part 3000 is not limited to the above-mentioned example. The data storage unit 3000 may store data necessary for the game. For example, the data storage unit 3000 may store master data of the event character. Further, for example, the data storage unit 3000 may store various types of image data. Moreover, for example, the data storage part 3000 may memorize|store the data which shows the relationship between each goal in a challenge part, and a reward. Further, for example, data indicating the contents of each scenario may be stored. Further, for example, data indicating the relationship between the special effect character and the score bonus may be stored. Further, for example, the data storage unit 3000 may store the user's setting information in association with the user ID. This setting information is, for example, an auto flag indicating the selection contents of the processing object P822 of the main command screen image G800, a skip flag indicating the selection contents of the processing object P823, and a shortcut flag indicating the selection contents of the processing object P824.

In response to a request from the user terminal 10 , the processing unit 3010 acquires data relating to the user of the user terminal 10 from among the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 , and the user terminal 10 . to transmit or update the data.

For example, the request from the user terminal 10 is made to include the user ID. When the above request is received by the server 30 , the processing unit 3010 obtains data stored in association with the received user ID from the data storage unit 3000 , and transmits the data to the user terminal 10 . do. For example, the processing unit 3010 acquires event character data stored in association with the user ID from the event character table TBL 302 , and transmits the event character data to the user terminal 10 . Similarly, the processing unit 3010 acquires the event deck data and original character data stored in association with the user ID from the event deck table TBL 303 or the original character table TBL 304, and the event deck data and the original character data. Data is transmitted to the user terminal 10 .

When the above request is received by the server 30 , the processing unit 3010 transfers the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 (that is, data stored in association with the received user ID) from the user terminal 10 . Update according to the notified update.

The individual data storage unit 1000 is for storing data relating to the user of the user terminal 10 among the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 .

The requesting unit 1010 obtains data relating to the user of the user terminal 10 from among the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 , and stores the data in the individual data storage unit 1000 , or individual data When the data stored in the storage unit 1000 is updated, the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 is similarly updated.

The requesting unit 1010 transmits the user user ID of the user terminal 10 to the server 30 at a predetermined timing so that the server 30 sends a reply with data stored in association with the user ID. demand on In addition, the "predetermined timing" is, for example, the timing at which the game program is started, the timing at which the home screen image G100 is displayed, or the timing at which the success part is started.

When the data returned from the server 30 is received by the user terminal 10 , the request unit 1010 stores the data in the individual data storage unit 1000 .

For example, the request unit 1010 causes the event character data returned from the server 30 to be stored in the event character table TBL 302 included in the individual data storage unit 1000 . In addition, the event character table TBL 302 is a data table for storing only the user event characters of the user terminal 10, and includes, for example, the same fields as the event character table TBL 302 shown in FIG. This is a data table (you can leave out the "User ID" field).

Further, the request unit 1010 causes the event deck data returned from the server 30 to be stored in the event deck table TBL 303 included in the individual data storage unit 1000 . In addition, the event deck table TBL 303 is a data table for storing only the user event deck of the user terminal 10, and includes, for example, the same fields as the event deck table TBL 303 shown in FIG. This is a data table (you can leave out the "User ID" field).

Further, the request unit 1010 causes the original character data returned from the server 30 to be stored in the original character table TBL 304 included in the individual data storage unit 1000 . In addition, the original character table TBL 304 is a data table for storing only the user original characters of the user terminal 10, and includes, for example, fields similar to the original character table TBL 304 shown in FIG. This is a data table (you can leave out the "User ID" field).

Also, the data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 is referred to or updated during execution of the baseball game. When the data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 is updated, the request unit 1010 notifies the server 30 of the updated contents together with the user ID of the user terminal 10 at a predetermined timing. By doing so, the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 is requested to be updated similarly. In addition, the "predetermined timing" is, for example, a timing for every predetermined time or a timing at which the user ends play.

[3-1. About the first technique]

Next, the function related to the first technique will be described. For example, the first technology may include a first game execution unit 1020 , a first effect generating unit 1021 , a change object selection unit 1030 , a level change unit 1040 , a use object selection unit 1050 , The effect display control unit 1060 , the data acquisition unit 1070 , the change target display control unit 1080 , the material character selection unit 1090 , the upper limit release determination unit 1100 , and the permission unit 1110 include the condition display control unit 1120 . ), the event power display control unit 1130 , and the player ability display control unit 1140 .

The first game execution unit 1020 executes a success part in which the ability parameter of the main character character is changed or set based on the user's operation. The first game execution unit 1020 executes a game program of the baseball game, and updates various data related to success parts (eg, the original character table TBL 304 ).

For example, the first game execution unit 1020 executes a success part including a game in which a game task is set based on the main character character and the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 .

A "game task" herein is a task (mission) determined in a game, for example, winning a match. In the "game task", the main character and the event character set on the event deck are used. When the result of the game processing executed based on these is a predetermined result, the "game task" is achieved. For example, in a match, when the number of points (points) obtained by the user is greater than that of the opponent, the "game task" is achieved. Winning a match held in the success part is an example of a game task.

The "success part including the game in which the game task is set" means that a game in which the game task is set is included in a part of the success part. For example, when winning a match corresponds to a game task, the success part includes a match-up game as a part. For example, when the progress of success parts becomes a predetermined situation, the game in which the game task was set becomes playable.

For example, the first game execution unit 1020 excludes a specific event character from among a plurality of event characters in terms of achievement of the game task even if it is selected by the use target selection unit 1050 .

This "specific event character" should just be one that is not used for a game task. In this embodiment, the value of the "attribute" field is "manager". "Excluded with respect to the achievement of the game task" means that it does not contribute to the achievement of the game task. For example, it means that the game task is not used in a set game. That is, about the event character of the "manager", even if it is set on the event deck, it will not participate in the match in the success part.

The change object selection unit 1030 selects any one of a plurality of event characters as a change object based on the user's operation. A "change target" is an event character that is a target for changing a level parameter. In the present embodiment, the base character corresponds to "change object".

For example, as shown in the base character selection screen image G1700 (FIG. 23), identification information for identifying each of a plurality of event characters is displayed on the display unit 15, and the change target selection unit 1030 includes: Among them, one or more is selected based on a user's operation. "Identification information" is, for example, an image indicating an event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character displayed in the event character list area A1740 corresponds to "identification information".

In addition, in this embodiment, although a user is made to select a base character directly, the user may select only the selection condition for selecting a base character, and you may make it select a base character based on the said selection condition. The selection condition is, for example, mastery practice of the event character. In this case, when the user selects the exercise valued by the success part, you may make it select as a base character any one of the event characters whose said exercise is set as an expert exercise. In this way, since an event character effective for efficiently performing the exercise that the user places importance on is selected as the base character, the user does not need to search for the base character one by one. In this case, a plurality of selection conditions for selecting one or more event characters are determined, and the change target selection unit 1030 selects one or more based on the selection conditions selected by the user therein. The selection condition may be a condition related to the level of an event character or an effect occurring in the game.

The level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 . For example, the level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 based on other game objects.

The "other game object" is not a main character object, but a game object that is not an event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 . The "other game object" may be other than the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 among the plurality of event characters, or may be a third game object that is not an event character in the main character. The third game object can also be referred to as a game object for changing a level parameter. For example, the third game object can also be referred to as a game object dedicated to strengthening event characters. For example, other game objects may be selected based on a user's operation, or may be automatically selected. In this embodiment, the material character corresponds to "another game object".

For example, the level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter by using the material character to increase the experience value parameter of the base character. In this embodiment, when the experience value parameter or the level parameter changes, the material character is consumed (disappeared). For example, the amount of change in the experience parameter or level parameter is different depending on the material character. In this case, the association between the material character and the change of the experience value parameter or the level parameter is stored in the storage unit. The experience value parameter and the level parameter change based on the change associated with the material character. For example, when the "attribute" field of the material character indicates "reinforced material", the amount of increase in the level parameter may be increased by increasing the obtainable experience value parameter compared to the case where other attributes are indicated.

In addition, in this embodiment, although the case where the level parameter of a base character is changed by using a material character is demonstrated, you may make the level change part 1040 change the level parameter of a base character based on a predetermined parameter. . In this case, the level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 based on the parameter for changing the level. The parameter for changing the level may be, for example, a "power injection point" obtainable by the user in the game. In this case, the level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the base character by injecting a "power injection point" into the base character.

Further, as described above, each of the plurality of event characters is limited so that the level parameter of the event character does not fall within a predetermined range. "Restriction so that the level parameter does not fall within the predetermined range" means prohibiting the level parameter from being within the predetermined range. That is, the level parameter of each event character is limited so that it does not become larger than the highest level.

The use target selection unit 1050 selects at least one of a plurality of event characters as a use target. A "use target" is a game object used in a game, and is a game object that produces an effect in the game. In the present embodiment, setting on the event deck corresponds to selecting as an object of use.

For example, the use target selection unit 1050 selects an event character based on a user's operation. In this case, as shown in the event character change screen image G600 (FIG. 9), identification information for identifying each of a plurality of event characters is displayed on the display unit 15, and the use target selection unit 1050 includes the One or more is selected from among them based on the user's operation. "Identification information" is, for example, an image indicating an event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character displayed in the event character list area A640 corresponds to "identification information".

Further, for example, the use object selection unit 1050 may automatically select an event character based on a predetermined condition. For example, the use target selection unit 1050 selects an event character based on the level parameter. For example, when a plurality of types of effects are generated in the game, the use target selection unit 1050 selects an event character in which the effect selected by the user occurs. In addition, for example, the use target selection unit 1050 may automatically select based on the level parameter or rarity parameter of the event character.

The first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect on the success part regarding the change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character based on the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 . For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 changes the effect based on the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selecting unit 1050 . For example, since the "bonus" field of the event character table TBL 302 stores data in which the level parameter is associated with the content of the effect, the first effect generating unit 1021 provides the content associated with the level parameter. of effect is generated in the success part.

For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 relates to a parameter range to which a value from an initial value to a current value of the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 among the plurality of parameter ranges belongs. created effect. "The parameter range to which the value from the initial value of the level parameter to the current value belongs" is a value (eg, 1) from the initial value (eg, 1) of the level parameter to the current value (eg, 50) to 50) is a parameter range including at least one parameter range to which the level parameter currently belongs and the parameter range to which the level parameter belongs in the past. For example, when an event character having a level parameter of 1 has a level parameter of 50 at once due to reinforcement, the first effect generating unit 1021 is related to the parameter range including 1 and the parameter range including 50. Not only an effect is generated, but an effect related to a parameter range including even one numerical value between 1 and 50 is generated. That is, in this case, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates all effects having a level parameter of 50 or less. In addition, if the value is a level parameter indicating that the level is high, all effects below the current value will be generated, but as the value is lower, the level parameter indicating that the level is high (for example, when indicating a rank. For example , 1 is the highest), all effects above the current value are generated.

When an operation for selecting a change target is performed, the effect display control unit 1060 is configured to indicate, for each event character, a correspondence relationship between the level parameter of the event character and the effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021 . Control for displaying the relationship information on the display unit 15 is executed.

"When an operation for selecting a change object is performed" is a predetermined timing before and after the user performs the operation. For example, until the selection of the base character is completed. For example, while the base character selection screen image G1700 for accepting the base character selection operation is being displayed.

The "correspondence information" is information indicating association between the range of the level parameter and the effect that occurs when the level parameter belongs to the range. The correspondence information includes information indicating the content of the effect. In other words, it includes text information or image information that allows the user to grasp the contents of the effect. In addition, the correspondence relationship information may include information for identifying an event character. This information includes the name and appearance of the event character. In this embodiment, the bonus detail screen image G500 corresponds to "correspondence information". In addition, although the correspondence relationship information is displayed when a base character selection operation is performed here, the correspondence relationship information itself may be made to be displayed at arbitrary timings. For example, what is necessary is just to be able to display correspondence relationship information from the list of event characters displayed by the process object P1570 of the event character menu screen image G1500 being selected, for example.

The expression "executing control for displaying on the display means" means, for example, generating an image and displaying the image on the display means. Further, for example, by generating data necessary for displaying an image and transmitting the data to the display means or a terminal connected to the display means, the image is displayed on the display means. The "data required to display an image" may be data representing the image itself or data necessary for generating an image. The meaning of the case where the same expression is used in the following is also the same.

The data acquisition unit 1070 acquires data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 that stores data in which each of a plurality of parameter ranges divided into stages and the effect generated by the effect generating unit are associated with each other. This data can also be said to be data indicating the correspondence relationship between the parameter range and the effect. This data may be in a table format or a numerical format. In the present embodiment, the "bonus" field of the event character table TBL 302 corresponds to the above data.

The "parameter range" means, for example, a range that a numerical value can take when a parameter is a numerical value. For example, from a 1st reference value to a 2nd reference value larger than the said 1st reference value. For example, when the parameter is a symbol, it is the order range when the symbols are arranged in symbol order. For example, from the first order to the second order after the first order. In addition, the parameter range here is a meaning including a single level as well as a plurality of levels. That is, the effect which generate|occur|produces in the success part for every level may be determined.

For example, the effect display control unit 1060 is configured to display, on the display unit 15 , correspondence relationship information indicating a correspondence relationship between each of a plurality of parameter ranges and an effect generated by the first effect generation unit 1021 . execute control. That is, the display control unit performs control for displaying on the display unit 15 correspondence relation information indicating the effect for each parameter range. In this embodiment, as shown in the bonus detail screen image G500 of FIG. 8, the effect which occurs for each level range is shown.

For example, for each event character, the effect display control unit 1060 may include an effect associated with a parameter range to which the value from the initial value to the current value of the level parameter of the event character belongs, and the effect from the initial value to the present level parameter of the event character. Control is executed for displaying on the display unit 15 correspondence relationship information that discriminates the effect associated with the parameter range to which the value up to the value does not belong.

The "parameter range to which the value from the initial value of the level parameter does not belong to the current value" is a value (for example, Each numerical value of 1 to 50) is a parameter range that does not include even one, for example, it means a parameter range in which a level parameter does not belong to any of the present or past.

"Distinguished correspondence information" refers to different display forms on the screen. For example, adding an image, making the color, luminance, shape, and size different from each other. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the bonus detail screen image G500 to which the check objects C510 and C520 were added corresponds to the said distinguished correspondence information.

The change subject display control unit 1080 executes control for displaying an accepted image for accepting an operation for selecting a change subject on the display unit 15 .

An "accepted image" is an image displayed when an operation is accepted. An operation performed while the received image is displayed corresponds to an operation for selecting a change target. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1740 of the base character selection screen image G1700 corresponds to the reception image.

Further, for example, the effect display control unit 1060 may execute control for displaying the correspondence relation information on the display unit 15 after an operation for displaying the correspondence relation information in a state where the received image is displayed is performed.

"After the user performs a predetermined operation for displaying the correspondence information in the state where the received image is displayed" means that after the predetermined operation performed in the state where the accepted image is displayed. For example, it means both according to a predetermined operation, or according to an operation performed in a state where an image displayed according to the predetermined operation is displayed.

In the present embodiment, when the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1740 of the base character selection screen image G1700 is long pressed, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the bonus detail screen image G500 to the display unit 15 Control to display.

Note that the effect display control unit 1060 may execute control for displaying the correspondence relation information on the display unit 15 in a state where the received image is displayed. In this case, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the received image and the correspondence information on the same screen.

The material character selection unit 1090 selects at least one of a plurality of game objects as the material character based on the user's operation.

The "plural game objects" herein are game objects excluding the base character, the original character, and the main character character. In the present embodiment, selectable event characters (namely, material character candidates) in the event character list area A1940 of the material character selection screen image G1900 correspond to a plurality of game objects.

The upper limit release determination unit 1100 determines whether a given condition associated with the base character selected by the change object selection unit 1030 is satisfied, based on the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090 . .

"Conditions for given given in relation to the base character" are conditions determined by the base character, and may be different conditions for each base character. For example, selecting a game object of the same type as the base character.

For example, the given condition is a condition that can be satisfied when the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090 is a specific event character. The specific event character is an event character associated with the base character selected by the change object selection unit 1030, and is, for example, the same event character as the event character. In other words, the predetermined condition is a condition that is not satisfied unless a specific event character is selected, and is a condition that is satisfied with a predetermined probability when a specific event character is selected.

Also, for example, the given condition is a condition satisfied by a probability determined based on the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090 . It is a condition that is satisfied under the probability associated with the material character. This probability is determined by, for example, a parameter of the material character. For example, the higher (larger) the rarity parameter or level parameter of the material character, the higher the probability may be.

The permission unit 1110 is configured to, when it is determined by the upper limit release determination unit 1100 that the given condition is satisfied, the level parameter of the base character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 is within a predetermined range or within a predetermined range. It is allowed to be part of the scope. Since the permission unit 1110 does not, as a rule, admit that the level parameter of the event character exceeds the maximum level, the permission unit 1110 determines that the given condition is satisfied only when the level parameter of the event character is Exceeding the highest level is permitted.

The "predetermined range" may be a predetermined parameter range. For example, when a parameter is a numerical value, it becomes a reference value or more, and when a parameter is a symbol, it becomes a preference after a predetermined order. In this embodiment, the range higher (larger) than the level maximum value corresponds to a predetermined range.

The condition display control unit 1120 controls to display condition information regarding the given condition on the display unit 15 when an operation for selecting the material character is performed. "Condition information" is an image or text indicating the content of the given condition.

For example, the condition display control unit 1120 controls for each event character to display condition information regarding whether the event character is a specific event character on the display unit 15 . In this embodiment, as shown in the material character selection screen image G1900 in Fig. 25, "open 100%" or "open 30 %" is displayed.

Further, for example, the condition display control unit 1120 controls to display, on the display unit 15, condition information regarding a probability when the event character is selected by the material character selection unit 1090 for each event character. . In the present embodiment, as shown in the material character selection screen image G1900 in Fig. 25, "open 100%" or "open 30%" indicating the highest level of opening probability for the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1940 ' will be displayed.

The event power display control unit 1130 displays, for each event character, information indicating the degree of an effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021 when the event character is selected by the use target selection unit 1050 on the display unit ( 15) to display the control.

"Information indicating the degree of an effect" is a numerical value or symbol indicating the magnitude (high or low) of the effect. In the present embodiment, the event power displayed on the event character screen image G400 corresponds to information indicating the degree of the effect. The event power display control unit 1130 acquires the value of the "event power" field of the event character table TBL 302 and causes the display unit 15 to display it.

The player ability display control unit 1140 causes the display unit 15 to further display, for each event character, information indicating the degree to which the event character becomes advantageous in achieving the game task when the event character is selected by the use target selection unit 1050 . control for

"Information indicating the degree of being advantageous" is a numerical value or a symbol indicating the degree to which the achievement of the game task becomes easy. In the present embodiment, since the game task here is to win the match of success parts, the player ability displayed on the event character screen image G400 corresponds to information indicating the degree of the effect. The event power display control unit 1130 acquires the value of the "player ability" field of the event character table TBL 302 and causes the display unit 15 to display it.

[3-2. About the second technology]

In order to realize the second technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a first game execution unit 1020 , a first effect generating unit 1021 , an effect display control unit 1060 , and a distinguishing display control unit 1150 . ), a helper selection unit 1160 , a second game execution unit 1170 , a special effect determination unit 1171 , and a second effect generating unit 1172 .

The first game execution unit 1020 executes the same processing as the processing described in the first technique, and therefore a description thereof is omitted here.

The first effect generating unit 1021 may generate an effect on the success part regarding change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character based on at least one selected from among a plurality of event characters (eg, an event character set on the event deck). causes The first effect generating unit 1021 may also perform the same processing as the processing described in the first technique, but since the second technique is mainly a technique related to a special effect character, the first effect generating unit 1021 is a special effect When a character is selected, the effect is changed based on the level parameter of the special effect character. The method of changing the effect based on the level parameter is the same as the method described in the first technique.

Also, in the first description, the case where the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect based on the level parameter has been described, but in the second technique, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect based on the event character , and it does not necessarily have to be based on the level parameter. For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 may generate an effect based on an ability parameter or a rarity, or may generate an effect based on an event list.

When an operation for selecting at least one of a plurality of event characters (for example, an event character to be set on the event deck) is performed, the discrimination display control unit 1150 provides information about a special effect character and information about other event characters A control for discriminating and displaying on the display unit 15 is executed. The meaning of the operation and the meaning of "display separately" are the same as those described in the first description.

"When an operation is performed" is a predetermined timing before and after a user performs an operation. For example, until the selection of the event character is completed. For example, while the event deck setting screen image G300, the event character change screen image G600, or the event deck editing screen image G1600 for accepting the event character selection operation is being displayed.

The "information about the character" is information for identifying an event character or a parameter of the event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object for identifying the event character corresponds to information about the character. For example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32 , in the event character list area A640 or the setting frame, the distinguishing display control unit 1150 sets the processing object of the special effect character and the display form of other event characters differently from each other. do. In addition, distinguishingly displaying information about a special effect character and information about another event character is not limited when an operation for selecting an event character to be organized in an event deck is performed. You may make this distinction display at arbitrary timings. For example, in the list of event characters displayed when the process object P1570 of the event character menu screen image G1500 is selected, you may make it distinguish between a special effect character and another event character. In addition, for example, when an event character is assigned by a drawing executed after the user selects the processing object P124, the event character menu screen image G1500 is displayed, and when the processing object P1570 is selected, a distinguishing display is performed. You can do it. In this case, the display of the event character menu screen image G1500 may be omitted and only the distinguishing display may be performed.

The effect display control unit 1060 executes control for displaying on the display unit 15 correspondence relation information indicating a correspondence relation between the special effect character and the effect generated by the second effect generating unit 1172 . For example, the effect display control part 1060 makes a special effect character and the effect which generate|occur|produce in a stadium part correlate and display. The correspondence information includes information indicating the content of the effect. In other words, it includes text information or image information that allows the user to grasp the contents of the effect. In addition, the correspondence information includes information for identifying a special effect character. This information is the name, appearance, etc. of a special effect character. For example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32 , the effect display control unit 1060 displays the score bonus of the special effect character in the event character list area A640 or the setting frame.

The effect display control unit 1060 controls to display correspondence relation information on the display unit 15 when an operation for selecting at least one of a plurality of event characters (for example, an event character to be set on the event deck) is performed run The above operation and the meaning of "when operation is performed" are as described above.

The helper selection unit 1160 selects an event character owned by another user associated with the user. "Other users associated with the user" is, for example, a user in a friendship relationship. In addition to the event characters owned by the user playing the game, event characters owned by other users can be selected.

The second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part in which the original character is used. For example, the second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part based on the ability parameter of the original character. The second game execution unit 1170 executes a game program of the baseball game, and updates various data (eg, user table TBL 301 ) related to stadium parts.

In addition, the 2nd game execution part 1170 may perform a game of stadium parts based on a user's operation, and may make it perform a game of stadium parts automatically without based on a user's operation. A user may designate whether a game of stadium parts is performed based on a user's operation, or a game of stadium parts is performed automatically.

The special effect determination unit 1171 determines whether the ability parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is changed or set in the success part executed in the state where the special effect character is selected. For example, the special effect determination unit 1171 determines whether the special effect character is used when the ability parameter of the original character is changed or set. Here, since the contents of the event deck when the ability parameter of the original character is changed or set is stored in the original character table TBL 304, the special effect determination unit 1171 is based on the contents of the original character table TBL 304 to make a judgment

The 2nd effect generation|occurrence|production part 1172 generate|occur|produces the effect favorable or unfavorable to a user on a stadium part based on the determination result of the special effect determination part 1171.

The "effect favorable or unfavorable to a user" is an effect which becomes easy to obtain a desired result in stadium parts, or an effect which becomes difficult to obtain. For example, in the case of a game aiming to obtain a reward (points, in-game currency, etc.), such as a stadium part, the effect is to increase or decrease the reward. For example, in the case of a match-up game like a stadium part, the effect which makes it easy to advance a match, or the effect which becomes difficult to advance may be sufficient.

For example, when it is determined that the ability parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is changed or set in the success part executed while the special effect character is selected, the second effect generating unit 1172 may provide an effect advantageous to the user. Occurs on the stadium part. Also, for example, when it is determined that the level parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is not changed or set in the success part executed in the state where the special effect character is selected, the second effect generating unit 1172 is unfavorable to the user You may make it generate|occur|produce the effect on the stadium part.

In this embodiment, since the stadium part aims to obtain a reward by using the original character whose ability parameter has changed in the success part, the second effect generating unit 1172 is advantageous or unfavorable for the user to obtain the reward. The effect will be generated in the stadium part.

The "effective or unfavorable effect in obtaining a reward" is an effect in which it becomes easy to obtain a reward or an effect in which it becomes difficult to obtain. That is, it is the effect that the reward obtained improves, or the effect that the reward obtained worsens.

The second effect generating unit 1172 may change the effect based on the parameter of the special effect character. The second effect generating unit 1172 changes the contents of the effect based on the parameter of the special effect character. For example, the association between parameters and effects is stored in the data storage unit 3000 . The second effect generating unit 1172 generates an effect related to the parameter. In addition, what is necessary is just a scarcity parameter or a level parameter as this parameter. The second effect generating unit 1172 increases the score bonus as the rarity or level of the special effect increases.

For example, the second effect generating unit 1172 may change the effect based on the number of original characters whose ability parameters are changed or set in the success part based on the special effect character. In this case, the number of original characters nurtured by the special effect character and the association of effects are stored in the data storage unit 3000 , and the second effect generating unit 1172 , Produces a number-related effect. For example, the second effect generating unit 1172 generates an effect that is advantageous or disadvantageous as the number of original characters fostered by the special effect character increases. That is, the 2nd effect generation|occurrence|production part 1172 may make it strengthen the effect in a stadium part, so that the number of the original characters fostered by the special effect character increases.

[3-3. About the third technology]

In order to realize the third technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a parameter change unit 1022 , a use object selection unit 1050 , a practice selection unit 1180 , and a practice display control unit 1190 . include

In addition, as described above, in the success part, each of a plurality of ability parameters of the main character character is changed or set. In addition, in the success part, any one of a plurality of roles is set as the main character character. A role is a role assigned in a game, and in this embodiment, it is a position.

The exercise selection unit 1180 selects any one of a plurality of options in which at least one of the plurality of ability parameters is associated with each other, based on the user's first selection operation. The "first selection operation" is an operation in which the user selects an option, for example, an operation in which any one of a plurality of options displayed on the display unit 15 is selected. In the present embodiment, each of the processing objects P921 to P926 corresponds to a selection, and the operation of selecting any one of the processing objects P921 to P926 corresponds to the first selection operation.

Each of the plurality of options is associated with at least one of the plurality of roles. In the present embodiment, the role of the fielder is associated with the option indicating the practice of the fielder, and the role of the pitcher is associated with the processing object indicating the practice of the pitcher. Then, the options associated with the role of the main character are selectable by the first selection operation. That is, when the role of the main character is a fielder, the processing object associated with the fielder is selectable, and when the role of the main character is the pitcher, the processing object associated with the pitcher is selectable.

The use object selection unit 1050 selects at least one of a plurality of event characters to which at least one of the plurality of options is associated with each other, based on the user's second selection operation. In the present embodiment, that skill practice is associated with the event character corresponds to that at least one of the options is associated with the event character.

The parameter change unit 1022 changes a parameter associated with the option selected by the exercise selection unit 1180 among a plurality of ability parameters. As described above, in each of the options, a capability parameter that increases when the processing object is selected is determined. For this reason, the parameter changing unit 1022 increases the capability parameter related to the selected one of the options.

The parameter change unit 1022 is configured to, when the option selected by the practice selection unit 1180 is an option related to the event character selected by the use object selection unit 1050, the option selected by the exercise selection unit 1180 , changes the parameter associated with the option selected by the retrieval selection unit so that the user has an advantage in the game compared to the case where the option is not related to the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 . For example, the parameter change unit 1022 increases the amount of change in the ability parameter of the main character character when skill training associated with the event character set on the event deck is selected.

The exercise display control unit 1190 executes a control for displaying on the display unit 15 option information regarding an option associated with the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 . The option information is an image, text, or the like for displaying an option on the display unit 15 . In the present embodiment, each exercise included in the processing objects P921 to P926 and the skilled practice area A346 corresponds to the option information.

In the exercise display control unit 1190 , a plurality of event characters are selected by the use object selection unit 1050 , and the options associated with each of the plurality of event characters selected by the use object selection unit 1050 are identical to each other. In this case, control is executed to display information indicating the same number of options in association with the option information on the display unit 15 .

"Information indicating the number of options" is an image or text indicating a numerical value. In the present embodiment, a numerical value such as “×2” displayed in the skill practice area A346 corresponds to “information indicating the number of options”.

"Displaying information indicating the number of options in association with the option information" means, for example, displaying information indicating the number of options and displaying part of the option information overlapping, information indicating the number of options and option information Displaying so that the distance of is within a predetermined distance, and connecting the information indicating the number of options and the option information with an image such as a line. In the present embodiment, numerical values such as "x2" are displayed to indicate the skilled practice displayed in the skilled practice area A346.

For example, the exercise display control unit 1190 distinguishes between option information related to an option associated with the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 and option information regarding options other than the selected option, and displays the display unit 15 . The meaning of "distinguishable display" which controls for displaying on the ? is the same as described above.

For example, the exercise display control unit 1190 may display the option information regarding each of the plurality of options in an order determined based on the role associated with the selection, and in a state in which the use target selection unit 1050 is displayed. Control is executed for displaying on the display unit 15 separately from option information related to an option associated with the event character selected by .

"The order determined based on the role" is an order in which roles can be identified according to the order, the options associated with the first role are displayed in an arrangement on the first side, and the options associated with the second role are displayed on the second side Arranged and displayed. Here, the practice display control unit 1190 arranges and displays the practice of the fielder on the left side and displays the practice of the pitcher on the right side in the skilled practice area A346.

[3-4. About the 4th technology]

In order to realize the fourth technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a first effect generating unit 1021 , a scenario selecting unit 1200 , and a scenario changing unit 1210 .

The scenario selection unit 1200 selects any one of a plurality of options related to the scenario content of the game based on the user's operation. The "option regarding the content of the scenario" is an option for determining the content of the scenario, and in the present embodiment, the option for the user to select the next section at the end of each section.

The scenario changing unit 1210 changes the content of the scenario of the game based on the option selected by the scenario selection unit 1200 . The scenario change unit 1210 advances a scenario selected by a user's operation from among a plurality of types of scenarios in the success part.

The first effect generating unit 1021 may be the same as the contents described in the first technique or the second technique. However, in the third technique, when a specific event character is selected from among a plurality of event characters, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates a specific game effect corresponding to the specific event character. The specific event character here is an event character to which a specific effect is associated, and is an event character of a predetermined rarity. The specific effect may be a predetermined effect, for example, an effect in which the main character can acquire a super special ability.

The first effect generating unit 1021 is configured to generate a specific in-game effect corresponding to the specific event character, even if a specific event character is not selected, when a specific option is selected from a plurality of options by the scenario selection unit 1200 . You can do it. The "specific option" is an option for proceeding to a predetermined scenario, for example, an option for proceeding to a scenario for a limited time. In the first effect generating unit 1021 , when an option for proceeding to a limited-time scenario is selected, the main character can acquire a super special ability without organizing a specific event character in the event deck.

For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 may limit the occurrence of a specific effect other than a specific period, and cause the specific effect to be generated within a specific period. Also, for example, the first effect generating unit 1021 limits selection of a specific option from among a plurality of options by the scenario selection unit 1200 other than a specific period, and selects a specific option by the scenario selection unit 1200 within a specific period. You may make it allow a specific option to be selected from a plurality of options. In other words, it is not possible to select a scenario in which a super special ability can be acquired outside of a specific period.

In order to realize the fifth technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a first update unit 3020 , a second update unit 3030 , a performance determination unit 3040 , a game provision unit 3050 , and and a conductive field display control unit 3060 . In addition, the present technology relates to a process performed between the user terminal 10 of a certain user and the user terminal 10 of the friend, and a configuration in which a plurality of user terminals 10 can access the server 30 is provided. presuppose

As described above, the second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part based on the original character associated with the user ID and other game objects. The other game object may be an original character associated with another user ID, or may be a game object other than that. The game objects other than that are, for example, game characters prepared by the manager of the game system 1 .

The first update unit 3020 stores the first performance information stored in the data storage unit 3000 that stores first performance information indicating the performance received in the stadium part by the first user identified by the first user ID. , update based on the first user's game play. 2nd performance information stored in the 2nd update part 3030, the data storage part 3000 which memorize|stores the 2nd performance information which shows the performance received in the stadium part by the 2nd user identified by the 2nd user ID; It is updated based on the 2nd user's game play.

The performance is information indicating the good or bad of the content or result of the game, and may be the progress or record of the game. In the present embodiment, the score obtained in the match in the stadium parts corresponds to the result. When each of the first update unit 3020 and the second update unit 3030 receives the score obtained by the user by the match of the stadium part from the user terminal 10, the content is stored in the user table TBL (301). Save.

The performance determination unit 3040 is configured to determine, based on the first performance information and the second performance information, from a first state in which the performance of the second user is lower than the performance of the first user, and the performance of the second user is the performance of the first user. It is determined whether or not it has changed to a higher second state. When it is determined that the game providing unit 3050 has changed from the first state to the second state, the game provided based on the original character associated with the first user ID and the original character associated with the second user ID is displayed. Control for providing to the first user is executed. What is necessary is just to make this game run on the game object owned by each user, and is a match|match game, for example.

For example, based on the operation performed by the first user in the state in which the notification is displayed, the game providing unit 3050 assigns the original character associated with the first user ID and the original character associated with the second user ID. A game executed based on the game is provided to the first user.

"Providing a game to a user" means transmitting a game program to the user terminal 10 or permitting execution of a game. In addition, for example, processing for prompting the user to play a match or the like may be used.

When it is determined that the challenge field display control unit 3060 has changed from the first state to the second state, the display unit 15 corresponding to the first user provides a notification indicating that the game is being provided by the game providing unit 3050 . Executes control to display in . What is necessary is just to make this notification performed in a predetermined format, for example, making the display part 15 display the process object P160.

[4. Process executed in game system 1]

43 to 66 are flowcharts showing an example of a process executed in the game system 1 . 43 to 66 , the control unit 11 operates according to the program stored in the storage unit 12 , and the control unit 31 operates according to the program stored in the storage unit 32 . is executed In the embodiment, the functional block shown in Fig. 37 is realized by executing the processing described below. Incidentally, the processing described below ends when a predetermined operation for ending the game is inputted from the input unit 14 .

As shown in Fig. 43, in the user terminal 10, when the control unit 11 activates the program stored in the storage unit 12, it requests the server 30 for the latest program or data (S1001). ). For example, a version of the game program is stored in the storage unit 12 , and the control unit 11 transmits the version.

In addition, when communication from the user terminal 10 to the server 30 is performed, a user ID, an IP address, or unique identification information of the user terminal 10 is transmitted to the server 30 and the server 30 It is possible to specify which user terminal 10 is communicating with. When the server 30 receives the user ID from the user terminal 10 , the control unit 31 specifies the user ID from the communication content. When the server 30 receives the IP address or unique identification information from the user terminal 10, the association between the IP address and the unique identification information and the user ID is stored in advance in the storage unit 32, and the control unit 31 ) specifies the user ID based on the communication content and this association.

In the server 30, upon receiving the request, if the program of the user terminal 10 is not up-to-date, the control unit 31 sends the latest data stored in the storage unit 32 together with the latest program to the user terminal ( 10) (S3001). The latest data here is, for example, data indicating a notification from a game provider to a user, or data corresponding to a user ID in each table. In S3001 , the control unit 31 compares the version received from the user terminal 10 with the latest program version stored in the storage unit 32 . If the program of the user terminal 10 is the latest version, the control unit 31 does not transmit the program to the user terminal 10 . Further, in S3001 , the control unit 31 refers to the storage unit 32 , and transmits various data associated with the user ID to the user terminal 10 .

In the user terminal 10, when receiving the latest program or data, the control unit 11 stores it in the storage unit 12 (S1003). In addition, when the latest program is received, the control unit 11 temporarily ends this process and starts the game again based on the latest program.

Based on the data received from the server 30, the control unit 11 displays a predetermined notification screen image (S1005), refers to the user table TBL 301, and determines whether or not a challenge letter from a friend has arrived. do (S1007). In S1007, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the user ID is stored in the "challenge field" field of the user table TBL 301 . When the user ID of the friend is stored, the control unit 11 determines that a challenge letter from the friend has arrived.

The control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the home screen image G100 ( FIGS. 2 and 34 ) based on the determination result of S1007 ( S1009 ). In S1009 , when a challenge letter from a friend arrives, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the home screen image G100 ( FIG. 34 ) including the processing object P170 . In addition, the image data of each image displayed on the display part 15 is memorize|stored in the storage part 12 beforehand. This point is also the same thereafter.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the home screen image G100 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1011). In S1011, the display position of each processing object is stored in the storage unit 12, and the control unit 11 determines which processing object the position on the screen indicated by the input unit 14 corresponds to. will do In this respect, the processing for determining selection of a processing object or the like in the following is also the same.

When the user selects the processing object P140 (S1011; P140), the flow advances to FIG. 44 , and the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the processing objects P141 to P143 (S1013). The control unit 11 determines whether any one of the processing objects P141 to P143 is selected based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1015).

When the user selects any one of the processing objects P141 to P143 (S1015; YES), the control unit 11 causes the main character registration screen image G200 (FIG. 4) to be displayed on the display unit 15 (S1017). The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the main character registration screen image G200 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1019).

When the user selects any one of the processing objects P241 to P245 (S1019; P241 to P245), the control unit 11 executes processing for changing the registration information of the main character character based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1021). In S1021, the control unit 11 reflects the content input from the input unit 14 to the main character registration area A240. In addition, this input content is temporarily hold|maintained in the memory|storage part 12. As shown in FIG.

On the other hand, when the user selects the processing object P250 (S1019; P250), the control unit 11 stores the registered contents of the main character character in the original character table TBL 304 (S1023), and the event deck setting picture name image G300 (Fig. 5 and FIG. 6) are displayed on the display unit 15 (S1025). In S1025, the control unit 11 creates a new record in the original character table TBL 304 stored in the storage unit 12, issues an original character ID, and stores the contents displayed in the main character registration area A240 in the record. Save. The original character ID may be issued so as not to overlap with that already stored in the original character table TBL 304 .

Moreover, in S1025, when the control part 11 updates the original character table TBL 304 of the memory|storage part 12, it transmits the updated data to the server 30. The control unit 31 of the server 30 stores the received data in the original character table TBL 304 of the storage unit 32 . Similarly in the following cases, when each table stored in the storage unit 12 is updated, the control unit 11 transmits the updated data to the server 30 , and the control unit 31 transmits the data of the storage unit 32 . table will be updated. In this way, data consistency is maintained between the user terminal 10 and the server 30 . In addition, the timing for achieving data consistency is not limited to when the table is updated, and data consistency may be achieved periodically or data consistency may be achieved according to a user's operation.

When the user selects the processing object P710 (S1033; P710), the control unit 11 automatically organizes an event deck for pitchers and stores it in the event character table TBL 302 (S1035). For example, the automatic knitting conditions for pitchers are stored in the storage unit 12 , and in S1035 , the control unit 11 controls the automatic knitting conditions for pitchers and each event stored in the event character table TBL 302 . A predetermined number of event characters (here, five) are selected based on the character data. The control unit 11 stores the selected event character ID in a record in which the event deck name displayed in the area A341 of the event character table TBL 302 is stored.

Note that the automatic formation condition is, for example, a conditional expression or expression for calculating an evaluation value indicating the priority to be organized in the event deck for each event character. For example, this formula may be set so that the evaluation value becomes higher as the rarity or level is higher, or the evaluation value is set so that the evaluation value becomes higher when the pitcher's practice is skilled practice or has a predetermined bonus. You can do it. In S1035, the control unit 11 selects only a predetermined number of event characters in order of increasing evaluation values.

When the user selects the processing object P720 (S1033; P720), the control unit 11 automatically organizes an event deck for the beast and stores it in the event character table TBL 302 (S1037).

When the user selects the third tap T423 (S1041; T423), the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 to display the profile of the event character on the display unit 15 (S1057). In S1057, the control unit 11 specifies the profile indicated by the "profile" field of the record in which the event character ID indicated by the event character screen image G400 is stored, and causes it to be displayed in the second area A420.

On the other hand, returning to Fig. 45, when the user taps any one of the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5 in S1027 (S1027; tap operation), the flow advances to Fig. 47, and the control unit 11 controls the event character With reference to the table TBL 302, the event character change screen image G600 (FIGS. 9 and 31) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1059).

In S1059, the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 to specify an event character currently organized in the event deck, and the specified event character is “in use” in the event character list area A640. indicate that In addition, when a limited-time event is being implemented, the control unit 11 displays a score bonus superimposed on the special effect character in the event character list area A640 if the event character ID of the special effect character is stored in the event deck table TBL 303 make it Further, the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 to specify event characters other than the above, and causes the specified specific event characters to be displayed in the event character list area A640.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the event character change screen image G600 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1061). When the user selects the processing object P641 (S1061; P641), the control unit 11 updates the event deck table TBL 303 so as to remove the event character tapped in S1027 from the event deck (S1063). In S1063, the control unit 11 deletes the event character ID of the event character tap operated in S1027 from the event deck table TBL 303.

When the user selects a processing object corresponding to an event character in the event character list area A640 (S1061; event character), the control unit 11 updates the event deck table TBL 303 so as to organize the event character into the event deck. do (S1065). In S1065, the control unit 11 deletes the event character ID of the event character tapped in S1027 from the event deck table TBL 303, and sets the event character ID of the event character indicated by the processing object selected by the user into the event deck table. It is stored in the TBL (303).

When the user selects the processing object P650 (S1061; P650), the control unit 11 rearranges the event characters in the event character list area A640 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1067). In S1067, the user selects the conditions of the display order from the input unit 14 . Then, the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and rearranges the event characters in the event character list area A640 based on the conditions selected by the user.

On the other hand, returning to Fig. 45, when the user selects the setting frame A345 in S1027 (S1027; A345), the flow advances to Fig. 48, and the control unit 11 inquires the server 30 for a candidate for an assistant. (S1069). A candidate for a helper is an event character set as a leader of another user.

In the server 30 , upon receiving the inquiry, the control unit 31 refers to the event character table TBL 302 , and transmits, to the user terminal 10 , data regarding the event character set as the leader of another user. do (S3003). In S3003 , the control unit 31 transmits to the user terminal 10 a predetermined number of data from among the records in which user IDs other than the user ID that transmitted the inquiry are stored. The control unit 31 may randomly select a predetermined number of data, or may select so that the combination of mastery exercises of the event character becomes a predetermined combination. That is, the control part 31 may select so that the proficiency practice of the event character used as a candidate of a helper does not become only the same thing. Moreover, the control part 31 may preferentially select the friend leader of a user as a candidate of a helper. In addition, when a user selects the leader of a friend as a helper, a predetermined|prescribed effect may generate|occur|produce in success parts. Examples of this effect include, for example, an increase in the amount of increase in experience points when a friend's leader skill practice is selected, an increase in the initial evaluation value of the leader, an increase in the probability of occurrence of an event related to the leader, and the like. That is, when a user selects the leader of a friend as a helper, you may generate the effect which a user becomes advantageous in success parts rather than the case where the leader who is not a friend is selected as an assistant.

In the user terminal 10, upon receiving the data, the control unit 11, based on the received data, displays the candidate list of the helper on the display unit 15 (S1071), to input from the input unit 14 Based on this, the helper selected by the user is set in the setting frame A345 (S1073). The event deck setting area A340 in this case becomes the same as that of FIG. In S1073, the control unit 11 stores the event character ID of the helper selected by the user in the "event deck" field of the original character table TBL 304 .

On the other hand, returning to Fig. 45, when the user selects the processing object P350 in S1027 (S1027; P350), the flow advances to Fig. 49, where the control unit 11 displays the opening image of the success part or the like on the display unit 15. After displaying (S1075), the main command screen image G800 (FIG. 12) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1077). In addition, the control unit 11 stores, in the original character table TBL 304 , the initial values of the main character's ability parameters, physical strength parameters, motivation parameters, experience points, and evaluations from other characters. These values may be fixed values or may fluctuate randomly.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the main command screen image G800 (FIG. 12) based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1079). When the user selects the processing object P841 (S1079; P841), the flow advances to Fig. 50, and the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the exercise screen image G900 (Fig. 13) (S1081). In S1081, the control unit 11 randomly determines where the event character and other characters organized in the event deck will participate in the exercise indicated by each of the processing objects P921 to P926, and stores the determination result in the storage unit 12 keep on

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the exercise screen image G900 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1083). When the user selects any one of the processing objects P921 to P926 (S1083; P921 to P926), the control unit 11 displays the cursor object C927 to indicate the selected processing object (S1085), the experience point area A930 and the game The display of the character area A940 is updated (S1087).

In S1087, the control unit 11 calculates the experience point points that increase when the user-selected processing object is practiced based on the formula described in the game program, and displays it in the experience point area A930. In this formula, the relationship between each exercise, the type of experience point to increase, and the increase value is defined. In addition, this relationship may be memorize|stored in the memory|storage part 12 as a table instead of a numerical formula. For example, the control unit 11 acquires the type of experience point and the increase value associated with the exercise of the processing object selected by the user. Then, with reference to the determination result in S1081, the control unit 11 determines whether or not an event character in which the exercise of the processing object selected by the user is the skilled exercise will participate in the exercise. increase the rise value. This increment may be a fixed value or a variable value. For example, the control part 11 may be made to determine an increment at random, and you may make it increase the increment so that the rarity and level parameter of an event character are high. The control unit 11 causes the experience point area A930 to display the increase value calculated as described above, and to display the determination result in S1081 on the game character area A940.

Based on the input from the input unit 14, the control unit 11 determines whether the processing object selected in S1083 has been selected once again (S1089). If the user selects it again (S1089; Yes), the control unit 11 increases the ability parameter of the main character by the increase value determined in S, and also increases the evaluation of the event character and other characters participating in the practice by a predetermined value. The original character table TBL 304 is updated so as to rise (S1091), and the exercise result screen image G1000 (FIG. 14) and the event screen image G1100 (FIG. 15) are displayed on the display unit 15 (S1093).

In S1093, the control unit 11 displays the message area A1030 so as to indicate the increase value of the ability parameter of the main character and indicate the increase value of the evaluation parameters of the event character and other characters participating in the exercise. A fixed value may be sufficient as the rising value of an evaluation parameter, and you may make it fluctuate at random. Further, based on the given probability, the control unit 11 displays the puppy character C1040 on the exercise result screen image G1000, and gives the randomly determined game item to the user. As described above, this probability may be previously determined in the storage unit 12, but when the notice screen image G1400 is displayed at the start of a section, the control unit 11 increases this probability. In addition, the control part 11 may update user table TBL 301 so that a game item may be provided at the time of S1093, and may update user table TBL 301 so that a game item may be provided at the end of a section.

Further, in S1093, the control unit 11 determines, based on the given probability, whether or not to generate a game event of the event character participating in the exercise. For example, the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 to specify a game event of the event character participating in the exercise, and determines whether or not to generate the specific game event based on the probability. do. In addition, the probability of occurrence may be different for every game event, and may be the same. When it is determined that a game event is to be generated, the control unit 11 displays the event screen image G1100 on the display unit 15 and updates the original character table TBL 304 so that the parameters of the main character are changed (increased or decreased). . In addition, the relationship between the game event, the type of parameter to be changed (at least one of an ability parameter, a physical strength parameter, a motivation parameter, an experience point point, and an evaluation parameter) and a change amount may be stored in the storage unit 12 in advance. The control unit 11 updates the original character table TBL 304 so that the parameter of the type associated with the generated game event is changed by the amount of change.

Further, in S1093, if the limited-time scenario is in progress, the control unit 11 determines, based on the given probability, whether or not to generate a game event for the main character character to acquire a super special ability. In addition, you may make it the control part 11 generate|occur|produce this game event at random. When it is decided to generate a game event, the control unit 11 displays the event screen image G1100 on the display unit 15 and updates the original character table TBL 304 so that the main character acquires a super special ability.

Further, in S1089, the control unit 11 may cause the main character to be injured because the practice fails based on the given probability. In this case, the processing of S1091 and S1093 is not executed. For example, the control unit 11 determines the probability that the main character will be injured based on the physical strength parameter of the main character. When the main character is injured, the control unit 11 displays a screen image indicating that the main character is injured on the display unit 15, so that the ability parameter of the main character decreases by a predetermined value, the original character table TBL ( 304) may be updated.

In S1083, when the user selects the processing object P950 (S1083; P950), it returns to S1077. On the other hand, when the user selects the processing object P812 (S1083; P812), the control unit 11 displays the given menu screen image on the display unit 15, and based on the input from the input unit 14, the success part Abort or stop or various setting processing is executed (S1095).

When it is determined that the current section is finished (S1139; YES), the control unit 11 determines whether or not the current section is the last section (S1141). In S1141, the control unit 11 determines whether the current section stored in the original character table TBL 304 is the last section.

When it is determined that it is not the last section (S1141; NO), the control unit 11 refers to the original character table TBL 304 and causes the display unit 15 to display the section completion screen image G1300 (S1143). The control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the section completion screen image G1300 indicating the experience points stored in the "experience point points" field of the original character table TBL 304 .

The control unit 11 determines whether to increase the treasure chest discovery probability based on a predetermined method ( S1145 ). In S1145, the control unit 11 may randomly determine whether or not to increase the treasure chest discovery probability, or may decide depending on whether the experience points in the section are equal to or greater than a predetermined value.

When it is determined to increase the treasure chest discovery probability (S1145; YES), the control unit 11 causes the preview screen image G1400 to be displayed on the display unit 15 (S1147). The control unit 11 executes processing to advance to the next section based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1149). In S1149, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the options for the next section, and advances the next section based on the section indicated by the choices selected by the user. In addition, the control unit 11 stores information for identifying the next section in the "nurture status" field of the original character table TBL 304 .

On the other hand, in S1141, when it is determined that it was the last section (S1141; Yes), the control part 11 executes the process of ending a success part (S1151), and returns to S1009. In S1151, the control part 11 makes the display part 15 display the screen image which shows that the success part is complete|finished. Then, based on the input from the input unit 14 , the control unit 11 updates the original character table TBL 304 so that the ability parameter of the main character is determined. The control unit 11 registers the main character character whose ability parameters have been determined as the original character in the original character table TBL 304, and updates the "nurture status" field to be fully developed.

On the other hand, returning to Fig. 43, when the user selects the processing object P150 in S1011 (S1011; P150), the flow advances to Fig. 53, where the control unit 11 refers to the user table TBL 301 and refers to the processing object P150. P151 and P152 (FIG. 34) are displayed on the display unit 15 (S1153). In addition, when it is not the holding period of a limited-time event, the process object P152 is not displayed. The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the home screen image G100 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1155).

When the user selects the processing object P151 (S1155; P151), the control unit 11 refers to the order table TBL 305 and starts a normal match based on the normal order. Hereinafter, normal matches are held according to the flow of S2 to S14 described above, but will be described in more detail here.

The control unit 11 refers to the user table TBL 301, and displays a screen image indicating information such as the user's league and ranking on the display unit 15 (S1157). When the user performs a predetermined operation, the server ( 30), information of the opponent is requested (S1159).

In the server 30, upon receiving the request, the control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL 301, selects a predetermined number of opponent candidates (S3005), and sends information on the selected opponent candidates to the user terminal. It transmits to (10) (S3007). In S3007, the control unit 31 selects a predetermined number (for example, five people) of users having the same degree of intensity as the user, based on the user's rank, league, ranking, or the like. The other user selected here may just be a user who is not a friend. The control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL 301 or the event character table TBL 302 , and transmits, to the user terminal 10 , information such as the user name, rank, and event character set as the leader of the selected opponent candidate. do.

In the user terminal 10, upon receiving the opponent information, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a screen image indicating the opponent candidate (S1161). In this screen image, a plurality of opponent candidates are displayed selectable. The control unit 11 determines an opponent based on the user's operation (S1163), and requests the opponent's order (S1165). This request includes the user ID determined as the opponent.

In the server 30, upon receiving the order request, the control unit 31 refers to the order table TBL 305, obtains order information of the user determined as the opponent, and transmits it to the user terminal 10 ( S3009).

In the user terminal 10, upon receiving order information, the control unit 11 refers to the order table TBL 305 and displays a screen image indicating the user's starting order and the opponent's starting order on the display unit 15 ) is displayed (S1167). In this screen image, along with the team name, the batting order, name, position, and rank of the original character in the starting order are displayed.

The control unit 11 specifies the user's operation based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1169). For example, it is made possible for the user to perform an operation for changing an order and an operation for determining a physical condition by confirming the order.

When the user performs an operation for changing the order (S1169; order change), the control unit 11 causes the normal order editing screen image G2200 to be displayed on the display unit 15, and based on the input from the input unit 14, the order (S1171), and the process returns to S1167. Since the processing of S1171 is the same as that of S1283 to S1293 described later, the description thereof is omitted here.

When the user confirms the order and performs an operation for determining the status (S1169; order confirmation), the flow advances to Fig. 54, and the control unit 11 determines the status of the starting order of the user and the opponent (S1173). In S1173, the control unit 11 randomly determines any one of the states of a plurality of stages for each original character in the starting order, and stores it in the storage unit 12 .

The control unit 11 displays the determination result of the state in S1173 on the display unit 15 (S1175), and refers to the user table TBL 301, and displays a screen image for selecting a game item to be used in a match. (15) (S1177). In S1177, the control unit 11 causes the game item stored in the "item" field of the user table TBL 301 to be displayed in a selectable manner.

The control unit 11 specifies the user's operation based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1179). For example, it is made possible for the user to perform the operation for selecting a game item, the operation for designating the progress method of a game, and the operation for starting a game. As a method of proceeding a match, here, it is possible to specify either whether all matches are automatically performed or whether the user operates an original character in a predetermined scene.

When the user performs an operation for selecting a game item (S1179; game item), the control unit 11 holds the game item selected by the user in the storage unit 12 based on the input from the input unit 14 . (S1181). When the user has performed an operation for designating the progress method of the match (S1179; proceeding method), the control unit 11 stores information indicating the user-specified proceeding method in the storage unit 12 (S1183).

When the user performs an operation to start the match (S1179; match start), the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so as to consume one match ticket (S1185), and starts the match (S1185) ( S1187). In S1187, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so as to consume the game item selected by the user. Then, the control unit 11 advances the match based on the progress method designated by the user. In the case where all the matches are automatically progressed, the control unit 11 automatically proceeds from the start to the end of the match without any operation by the user. On the other hand, when the user operates the original character in a predetermined scene, the control unit 11 automatically advances the game, and when the match becomes a predetermined scene, the user operates the original character. The scene in which the user can operate should just be determined in advance. In addition, in this embodiment, since the score obtained by the one operated by a user becomes large, the scene which a user can operate may be limited to less than a predetermined number of times. As the method of proceeding with the match itself, known methods of proceeding various sports games may be applicable.

The control unit 11 calculates a score obtained by the user in the game based on the execution result of the game (S1189), and transmits the calculated score to the server 30 (S1119). For example, data indicating the relationship between the content and result of the match and the increase/decrease in the score is stored in the storage unit 12, and in S1189, the control unit 11 controls the score increase/decrease associated with the content and result of the match. Based on that, the score obtained by the user in the match is calculated. This relationship is, for example, +1000 points if a match is won, -200 points if a loss is scored, +2000 points if an original character manipulated by the user hits a hit, +100 points if an original character not operated by the user hits a hit are set together

In the server 30, upon receiving the score, the control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL 301, determines the ranking of the user (S3011), and determines whether the user has surpassed the score of the friend. (S3013). In S3013, the control unit 31 may determine a ranking among all users, or may determine a ranking within a league to which the user belongs. In addition, when the user does not update the highest score, you may abbreviate|omit the process of S3011 - S3017.

If it is determined that the overtaking has passed (S3013; Yes), the control unit 31 executes a process for sending a challenge letter to the friend (S3015). In S3015, the control unit 31 stores the user ID in the "challenge field" field of the record corresponding to the friend in the user table TBL 301 .

The control unit 31 transmits the latest ranking of the user to the user terminal 10 (S3017). In addition, when the user overtakes the friend's score, information indicating that the challenge letter has been sent is also transmitted to the user terminal 10 , and in the user terminal 10 , the information is displayed on the display unit 15 . .

In the user terminal 10, upon receiving the ranking, the control unit 11 displays a screen image indicating the match result on the display unit 15 (S1193), and when the ranking rises, the screen image indicating the ranking is displayed on the display unit (15) (S1195). The control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so as to update the user's ranking or the like (S1197). In S1195, the control unit 11 displays, on the screen image, the goals scored by both teams, wins and losses, scores won in a game, a breakdown of the scores, the user's best score, the number of medals won, and the points obtained for the drawing on the screen.

On the other hand, in S1155, when the user selects the processing object P152 (S1155; P152), the control unit 11 refers to the order table TBL 305, and based on the order for the limited-time event, a match of the limited-time event is performed. The processing for starting is executed (S1199 to S1239). The processing of S1199 to S1239 is the same as that of S1157 to S1197, respectively. However, in S1231, when it is determined based on the order table TBL 305 whether or not there is an original character to which a score bonus is given in the user's order, the control unit 11 determines whether the original character has been assigned to the original character. Increases the score by the score bonus. When there are a plurality of original characters to which a score bonus is given, the control unit 11 increases the score by the total amount of each score bonus of the plurality of original characters. In this respect, S1231 and S1189 are different.

On the other hand, returning to FIG. 43, when the user selects the process object P160 in S1011 (S1011; P160), the control part 11 executes the process regarding a challenge part (S1241). For example, data indicating the relationship between each goal to be achieved by the user, the reward, and the user's achievement status is stored in the storage unit 12 , and in S1241, the control unit 11 is configured to Thus, the display unit 15 displays a screen image indicating the goals that the user has achieved and the goals that have not been achieved. When the user achieves a new goal, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so that a reward (game item, coin, etc.) associated with the achieved goal is given to the user.

When the user selects the processing object P170 (S1011; P170), the flow advances to FIG. 57, and the control unit 11 refers to the user table TBL 301 and displays a screen image indicating a list of friends who have sent a challenge letter to the display unit ( 15) (S1243), and based on the input from the input unit 14, an opponent is determined from among the friends who have sent the challenge letter (S1245). Subsequent S1247 to S1277 are the same as S1165 to S1197. However, as described above, since match tickets are not consumed in a match against a friend using the challenge field, S1185 is not executed.

On the other hand, in S1011 or the like, when the user selects the processing objects P121 to P125, P130, or the like, the common routine shown in Fig. 59 is executed. When the user selects the processing object P121 (FIG. 59: P121), it returns to the processing of S1009, and the control part 11 makes the display part 15 display the home screen image G100.

When the user selects the processing object P122 (FIG. 59: P122), the flow advances to FIG. 60, and the control unit 11 causes the My Team menu screen image G2100 to be displayed on the display unit 15 (S1279). The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the My Team menu screen image G2100 (FIG. 28) based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1281).

The control unit 11 specifies the user's operation based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1285).

When the user performs an operation for replacing an order (S1285; replacement operation), the control unit 11 updates the order table TBL 305 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1287). In S1287 , the control unit 11 replaces the two original characters based on the input from the input unit 14 . The operation for replacing the order is as described above.

When the user selects the processing object P2240 (S1285; P2240), the control unit 11 refers to the original character table TBL 304 and automatically determines the order (S1289). In S1289, the control unit 11 determines to include in the order an original character having a high ability parameter or an original character having many total experience points acquired in the success part.

When the user selects the processing object P2250 (S1285; P2250), the control unit 11 returns the order to the original (S1291). For example, the order at the time of display of the normal order editing screen image G2200 is stored in the storage unit 12, and the control unit 11 returns the contents of the order table TBL 305 to this order.

When the user selects the processing object P2270 (S1285; P2270), the control unit 11 determines the pitcher's appointment method based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1293). In S1293, the control part 11 updates the order table TBL 305 so that it may become the appointment method designated by the input part 14. When the user selects the processing object P2280 (S1285; P2280), the flow returns to S1279.

Thereafter, the processing of S1297 to S1305 is the same as that of S1285 to S1293. Further, in S1295, if there is an event character with which the score bonus is associated, the control unit 11 displays the total value of the score bonus of the event character and the score bonus in the current order. Specifically, the control unit 11 refers to the original character table TBL 304 and determines whether the event character ID of the special effect character is stored in the "event deck" field of the original character included in the order. Then, when it is determined that the event character ID of the special effect character is stored, the control unit 11 acquires the score bonus of the special effect character and displays it on the limited-time order editing screen image G2300. In addition, information indicating the score bonus of each special effect character is stored in the storage unit 12 .

In S1281, when the user selects the processing object P2160 (S1281; P2160), the control unit 11 refers to the original character table TBL 304 and displays a screen image indicating a list of original characters on the display unit 15. make it (S1307).

When the user selects the processing object P2170 (S1281; P2170), the control unit 11 executes the editing processing of the original character based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1309). In the editing process of the original character, for example, the name, appearance, batting form, etc. of the original character can be changed according to the input from the input unit 14 .

Returning to Fig. 59, when the user selects the processing object P123 in S1011 or the like (Fig. 59; P123), the flow advances to Fig. 62, where the control unit 11 displays the event character menu screen image G1500 (Fig. 20) on the display unit ( 15) (S1311). The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the event character menu screen image G1500 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1313).

When the user selects the processing object P1540 (S1313; P1540), the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 and displays the event deck editing screen image G1600 ( FIGS. 21 and 22 ) on the display unit 15 . display (S1315). Thereafter, the processing of S1317 to S1327 is the same as that of S1027 to S1037.

In S1313, when the user selects the processing object P1550 (S1313; P1550), the flow advances to Fig. 64, where the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302, and the base character selection screen image G1700 (Fig. 23). ) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1329). The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the base character selection screen image G1700 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1331).

When the user selects the processing object P1750 (S1331; P1750), the control unit 11 rearranges the event characters in the event character list area A1740 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1333). The processing of S1333 is the same as that of S1067.

When the user selects the processing object of any one of the event characters in the event character list area A1740 (S1331; event character), the flow advances to Fig. 65, and the control unit 11 controls the reinforcement screen image G1800 in which this event character is set as the base character. (FIG. 24) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1335). In addition, the event character ID of the base character selected by the user is temporarily stored in the storage unit 12 . In addition, when the user presses and holds any one of the event characters in the event character list area A1740, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400. . Similarly, even when the user presses and holds any one of the material characters in the material character area A1850, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the enhanced screen image G1800 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1337). When the user selects the material character area A1850 (S1337; A1850), the flow advances to FIG. 66 , and the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and displays the material character selection screen image G1900 on the display unit 15 . display (S1339). Also, even when the user presses and holds any one of the material characters in the event character list area A1940, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400. .

In S1339, the control unit 11 compares the base character held in the storage unit 12 with each event character stored in the event character table TBL 302 to determine whether the user has the same event character as the base character. determine whether When it is determined that the user possesses the same event character as the base character, the control unit 11 calculates a probability of increasing the maximum level of the base character based on the rarity of the base character and the rarity of the event character. do. As this calculation method, as described above, if the event character identical to the base character has a rarity equal to or higher than the rarity of the base character, the probability is 100%, and the first stage of the base character If the rarity is below, the probability is set to a value less than 100% (eg, 30%), and if the rarity is 2 or less levels of the base character, the probability is set to 0%. In addition, the control unit 11 may calculate that the probability increases as the amount of increase (that is, how much is increasing from the initial value of the highest level) at the present point of the base character's highest level increases, and the higher the rarity of the base character, the higher the probability. It can be calculated so that it is lowered. In addition, the control unit 11 refers to the "event deck" field of the original character table TBL 304 to specify the number of original characters that have been nurtured in a state in which the base character is organized on the event deck, and as this number increases, It can be calculated to increase the probability. Then, in the material character selection screen image G1900, the control unit 11 displays the calculated probability for each event character that is the same as the base character. In addition, since an event character different from the base character cannot increase the maximum level of the base character even if it is used as a material character, the control unit 11 does not calculate the probability for an event character different from the base character, In the character selection screen image G1900, the probability is also not displayed.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the material character selection screen image G1900 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1341). When the user selects an event character processing object in the event character list area A1940 (S1341; event character), the control unit 11 stores it in the storage unit 12 as a material character (S1343). In S1343, the control unit 11 calculates the experience points acquired by the base character by the material character selected by the user, the level to increase, and the coins required for reinforcement, and displays them in the area A1950. The experience points obtainable by each event character and necessary coins are stored in the storage unit 12 in advance. In addition, when the user presses and holds any one of the event characters in the event character list area A1940, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400. .

When the user selects the processing object P1960 (S1341; P1960), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the reinforcement screen image G1800 in which the material character is set in the material character area A1850 (S1345). In S1345, if the same material character as the base character is selected, the control unit 11, similarly to S1339, increases the probability of increasing the base character's highest level for each material character identical to the base character in the reinforcement screen image G1800. will be displayed Further, as described above, since a material character different from the base character cannot increase the maximum level of the base character, the probability is not displayed in the reinforcement screen image G1800.

When the user selects the processing object P1970 (S1341; P1970), the control unit 11 cancels the selection of the material character selected until then (S1347). In this case, the control unit 11 clears the material character held in the storage unit 12 .

65, when the user selects the processing object P1860 in S1337 (S1337; P1860), the control unit 11 performs reinforcement of the base character based on the material character selected by the user (S1349); The reinforcement result window G2000 is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1351).

In S1349, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so as to consume the coin calculated in S1343, and updates the event character table TBL 302 so as to increase by the experience value and level calculated in S1343. . Further, when one or more material characters identical to the base character are selected, the control unit 11 for each material character, based on the probability of increasing the maximum level of the base character corresponding to the material character, the highest level of the base character. Each decides whether to increase or not. Then, when the control part 11 accepts the operation which selects the process object P2010 based on the input from the input part 14, it returns to S1311.

In S1337, when the user selects the processing object P1870 (S1337; P1870), the control unit 11 cancels the selection of the material character selected in the material character area A1850 (S1353). In this case, the control unit 11 clears the material character held in the storage unit 12 .

In S1355 , the control unit 11 specifies an event character designated by the user as a sale target based on the input from the input unit 14 . Then, the control unit 11 deletes the record of the sold event character from the event character table TBL 302, and updates the user table TBL 301 so that the number of coins owned by the user increases by a predetermined number. In addition, data indicating the relationship between the event character and the coin at the time of sale is stored in advance in the storage unit 12 .

When the user selects the processing object P1570 (S1313; P1570), the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and causes the display unit 15 to display a list of event characters (S1357). In addition, when the user presses and holds any one of the event characters in the list of event characters, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400. .

When the user selects the processing object P1580 (S1313; P1580), the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL 302 to display the illustrated book on the display unit 15 (S1359). In addition, when the user presses and holds any one of the event characters in the illustrated book of the event characters, the control unit 11 may proceed to S1039 and cause the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400. .

When the user selects the processing object P1590 (S1313; P1590), the control unit 11 executes an event character list expansion processing based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1361). Information indicating the number of event characters that the user can possess in the list of event characters may be stored in the user table TBL 301 or the like. In S1361, the control unit 11 executes the list expansion process by consuming the Power Stone.

Returning to Fig. 59, when the user selects the processing object P124 in S1011 or the like (Fig. 59; P124), the control unit 11 displays a screen image for the user to draw on the display unit 15, and the input unit ( Based on the input from 14), the processing of a lottery is executed (S1363). In S1363, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so as to consume the user's drawing points. Then, the control unit 11 determines an event character to be given to the user from among a plurality of event characters based on the given probability. In addition, various well-known methods can be applied to the process itself of a lottery. For example, the processing of drawing a lottery event character to be given to the user may be performed by the server 30 . In this case, in the server 30, the control unit 31 updates the user table TBL 301 so that the user's lottery points are consumed, and based on the given probability, an event given to the user from among a plurality of event characters. decides the character. The control unit 31 transmits data representing the lottery event character to the user terminal 10 , and a screen image representing the event character is displayed on the display unit 15 .

In S1011 etc., when the user selects the processing object P125 (FIG. 59; P125), the control part 11 makes the display part 15 display the screen image of a store, and based on the input from the input part 14, a game The purchase processing of the item is executed (S1365). In S1365, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL 301 so that the user's medal is consumed to purchase the game item. In addition, various well-known methods can be applied to the purchase process itself of a game item.

In S1011 etc., when the user selects the processing object P130 (FIG. 59; P130), the control part 11 makes the display part 15 display the screen image of a menu, and based on the input from the input part 14, various Menu processing is executed (S1367). Further, in S1019 or the like, when the user selects the processing object P230 or the like (FIG. 59; P230, etc.), the control unit 11 executes processing to return to the screen image displayed before one of the current screen images (S1369). ).

[Summary of the first technique]

According to the game system 1 described above, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the corresponding relationship between the level parameter of the event character and the effect occurring in the success part can be seen, so that the change in the level parameter of the event character is It is possible to easily grasp the effect on the change of the character's ability parameters. For example, by examining this correspondence before the user selects the base character, the user can select and strengthen the base character after sufficiently examining the effect that occurs when the level parameter of the base character is changed. . In other words, by changing the level parameter of the base character to what extent, it is easy to grasp whether the desired effect can be obtained.

Moreover, like this embodiment, when an effect is determined for every range of the several level parameter divided into steps, by displaying the bonus detailed screen image G500, the relationship between each range and an effect can be grasped|ascertained easily. That is, it is easy to grasp to what extent the desired effect can be obtained by changing the level parameter of the event character. In addition, by dividing the range of the level parameter step by step, in order for the user to obtain a more advantageous effect, the event character is strengthened by targeting the next step, and it becomes easier for the user to set a goal.

In addition, since an effect related to the range of the level parameter to which the value from the initial value of the level parameter of the event character to the current value belongs occurs, the effect that occurs at the present time and the effect that does not occur at this time (after raising the level parameter, By distinguishing the effects that may occur) in the bonus detail screen image G500, these can be easily grasped. In addition, by displaying the bonus detail screen image G500, which distinguishes the effect that occurs at the present time and the effect that does not occur at the present time, the range to which the current value of the level parameter of the event character belongs among the range of a plurality of level parameters divided in stages to be easily understood.

In addition, as in the present embodiment, when a predetermined operation is performed from the event character screen image G400, the bonus detail screen image G500 is displayed, so that when the user wants to confirm, the correspondence relationship between the level parameter of the event character and the effect is displayed. can In addition, when the correspondence relationship information is displayed while the image for accepting the operation for selecting the base character is displayed, the relationship between the level parameter and the effect of the base character can be checked on the same screen when the base character is selected. As a result, the user can confirm the relationship between the level parameter of the base character and the effect without performing a screen switching operation or the like for selecting the base character.

In addition, in the material character selection screen image G1900, condition information regarding the condition for allowing the level parameter of the event character to be at or above the maximum level can be viewed, so that the user can select the material character after grasping the condition. can For this reason, it becomes easy for a user to judge whether the selected base character and material character are a valid combination. Also, for example, the user can develop a main character character having a specific tendency by increasing the highest level of the event character of a specific skill practice.

In addition, in the material character selection screen image G1900, when selecting a material character, it is possible to check whether it is possible to satisfy the condition for increasing the maximum level of the base character (whether it is the same character), so that the user can After determining whether there is a possibility of increasing the level, you can select a material character. Further, since the user can easily grasp whether or not the material character meets the condition for increasing the maximum level, it is easy to prevent an erroneous selection of selecting as the material character even when the maximum level cannot be increased. For example, in the material character selection screen image G1900, when a material character is selected, a probability for increasing the highest level of the base character can be seen, so that the user can select the material character after grasping this probability. can Accordingly, the user can strategically select the material character in consideration of the probability for the base character's highest level to increase.

In addition, in the event character screen image G400, assuming that the event character is organized on the event deck by displaying the event power, before starting the success part, how much effect will occur in the development of the main character in the success part. can be easily grasped.

In addition, in the event character screen image G400, by displaying the player abilities, it is possible to easily grasp before starting the success part how advantageous it will be in winning the match in the success part if an event character is selected.

In addition, by selecting an event character to be used in the game in the success parts or selecting an event character not used in the game in the success parts, it is possible to increase the strategy of the game.

[Summary of the second technology]

In addition, when a success part is executed while a special effect character is selected, such as during a limited-time event being held, it becomes advantageous in the stadium part, the motivation for selecting a special effect character rather than the event character organized in the current situation event deck can be given, it is possible to prevent the event characters organized in the event deck from being fixed. In addition, for example, in a limited-time event, since a score bonus is given to an original character by using and nurturing a special effect character, it becomes possible to foster a feeling of tension by cultivating in a limited time. In addition, as the period for which the score bonus is given is limited, such as during a limited-time event, it is possible to suppress the development of an original character indefinitely, so that the balance of strength and weakness between users can be easily maintained within a certain range. . That is, when the period for which the score bonus is given is not limited, the state in which the user possessing the special effect is advantageous in terms of score continues all the time, but this state can be prevented by limiting the period. In addition, in a limited-time event, it is not the original character itself that is used in the game that makes it possible to give a score bonus to the original character, but the special character, so to speak, it exerts a game effect in an indirect form, It is possible to realize a game that has depth in the gameplay and does not get tired.

In addition, in the event deck setting screen image G300 and the event character change screen image G600, etc., information about special characters and information about other event characters are distinguished. It is easy to determine whether it is a special effect character. For this reason, it becomes easy for a user to examine the best event deck containing special effect characters and other event characters.

In addition, in the limited-time order editing screen image G2300 of Fig. 30, the score bonus given to the original character of the order and the total value are displayed, so that the user can determine how much You can easily figure out if you can earn a score bonus. In addition, it becomes easier for the user to examine whether to organize orders with priority on score bonuses or with priority on ability parameters.

Also, as in the event character change screen image G600 in Fig. 31, when the user selects an event character to be organized on the event deck, a score bonus to the main character by the special effect is displayed. It is easy to see what effects are occurring on the part.

In addition, the effect generated in the success part may be changed based on the ability parameter or level parameter of the special effect character. can improve For example, if a special effect character's ability parameter is higher, the effect that occurs in the success part increases, whether a special effect character with a low score bonus but high ability parameter is organized in the event deck, or a special effect character with a high score bonus but low ability parameter It is possible to make the user think about whether to organize in the event deck, and it is possible to improve the excitement of the success part. Also, for example, if the higher the level parameter of the special effect character, the higher the effect that occurs in the success part. By strengthening other event characters, you can think about whether or not to organize them in the event deck, and you can improve the excitement of the success part. In addition, it is also possible to provide a motivation for the user to change the parameters of the special effect character.

In addition, as in the present embodiment, when an advantageous effect for obtaining a reward occurs in the stadium part, the user selects a special effect character in order to obtain a large reward, so that the motivation for selecting the special effect character can be strengthened.

In addition, since the effect in the stadium part is changed based on the parameter of the special effect character, a change can be given to the effect generated in the stadium part, and the excitement of the stadium part can be improved. In addition, it is also possible to provide a motivation for the user to change the parameters of the special effect character.

In addition, if the effect is changed based on the number of main character characters whose ability parameters are set based on the special effect character, the motivation of changing the ability parameters of more main characters in the success part (cultivating more main characters in the success part) grant can be provided.

In addition, by making it possible to select an event character possessed by another user (friend) associated with the user, the ability parameter of the main character character can be changed based on the success part and the event character possessed by the other user. As a result, for example, even if the user does not possess the special effect character, if another user has the special effect character, an advantageous effect can be obtained in the stadium part, and it can be used as an opportunity to build a cooperative relationship between users. In addition, with respect to the user who has the special effect character, it is possible to provide an opportunity to show other users that the special effect character is maintained. In addition, by using the stadium part as a fighting game, since the development of the main character by the special effect character can greatly influence the victory or defeat of the fighting game, the special effect character can give more competitive consciousness among users.

[Summary of the third technology]

In addition, according to the game system 1, in the skilled practice areas A346 and A1646, the skilled practice associated with the event character organized on the event deck is displayed, so that the event character can be selected while grasping which practice will be advantageous. Yes (you can choose your event character while figuring out which practice your current event deck will give you an advantage). In addition, it becomes easier to grasp which event character should be organized in the event deck in order to develop the main character character so as to be capable of being desired by the user.

Further, according to the game system 1, when the skill exercises associated with a plurality of event characters organized on the event deck are the same, information indicating the number is displayed in the skill practice areas A346 and A1646 in the form of display It is possible to make it easier to visually recognize the information about the skill practice of the event deck without significantly changing the . In addition, if the skill exercises associated with a plurality of event characters organized in the event deck are identical to each other, if the user selects the skill exercises, the ability parameters of the main character character greatly increase, so the degree of the effect generated by the current event deck is reduced. It can also be easily identified.

In addition, according to the game system 1, in the skilled practice areas A346 and A1646, the skilled practice associated with the event character organized on the event deck and the other skilled practice are displayed separately. Therefore, it is possible to make it easier to visually recognize what kind of main character character can be fostered with the current event deck.

Further, according to the game system 1, in the skill practice areas A346 and A1646, the practice when the main character is a fielder is displayed on the left side, and the practice when the pitcher is displayed on the right side, and the role of the main character to be nurtured The exercises are displayed in the order determined based on the Thereby, the user can make it easy to visually recognize which role the main character character can be fostered in the present event deck.

[Summary of the fourth technique]

In addition, according to the game system 1, when the content of the scenario changes based on the choices, when a specific option is selected, a specific effect occurs even if a specific event character is not selected, so even if the specific event character is not possessed It can produce certain effects.

Further, according to the game system 1, since a specific option occurs only during a specific period, the user can enjoy the same scenario multiple times. That is, even if the user skims through each section of the scenario and plays, a specific option occurs when a specific period comes, and new content can be played.

[Summary of the fifth technique]

In addition, according to the game system 1, when the performance of one user exceeds the performance of another user, a challenge letter is sent and a game in which users compete with each other is provided, thereby promoting competition among users. Further, for example, by sending a challenge letter, communication with a friend can be activated. In addition, the psychological burden can be reduced in order to play against a user who has a friend relationship rather than against an opponent who is completely unknown. Further, for example, when a challenge arrives while the user is playing the game, it becomes possible to compete in near real time, thereby improving the enjoyment of the game. In addition, by sending a challenge letter when the performance of one user exceeds that of another user, the challenge letter is sent from a user with a relatively close performance, thereby making it easy to impart a sense of competition among users with similar capabilities.

Moreover, according to the game system 1, the user who received the challenge letter can compete using the original character possessed by the said user and the original character possessed by the user who sent the challenge letter. For this reason, the motivation for making the original character owned by each user advantageous in battle (for example, fostering an original character, editing an order, etc.) can be provided.

Further, according to the game system 1, the number of times of sending the challenge sheet can be limited within a certain period. For this reason, it is possible to reduce the processing load of the server 30 due to the transmission of many conductive fields. In addition, by limiting the notification of the challenge to within a certain period of time, it is possible to avoid the confusion of receiving numerous challenges for the user who has received the challenge.

Further, according to the game system 1, the reward in the competitive game performed by receiving the challenge is a reward that can be advantageous to the user's performance. Accordingly, it is possible to further provide an opportunity to compete with the user who has sent the challenge letter using the reward.

[5. Variation]

In addition, this invention is not limited to embodiment demonstrated above. It can be suitably changed in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention.

[5-1. Modifications related to the first technique]

For example, in the embodiment, in order to increase the maximum level of the base character, synthesis with the same material character is a condition, but in order to increase the maximum level of the event character, a dedicated game item may be used. In addition, the number of the exclusive game item may be one, and the combination of several game item may be sufficient as it. In the case of a combination of a plurality of game items, for example, when a user owns three game items A and two game items B, by consuming a total of five game items, the highest level of the base character is obtained. may be increased. In this case, you may make it different in the probability that a highest level will increase depending on a game item. For example, the probability may be made high so that there are many game items, and you may make it so that the rarity of a game item is high, so that a probability increases.

Moreover, for example, in order to increase the highest level of a base character, you may set this base character on an event deck and it is good also considering the number of original characters nurtured by success parts as a condition. For example, when the number of original characters raised becomes 3 or more, the highest level is increased by 1, and when it is 5 or more, the highest level is increased by 2, or the like. That is, you may increase the number of increase of the highest level, so that the number of the original characters nurtured by the success part by setting a base character on an event deck is large.

Further, for example, based on the rarity of each of the base character and the material character, not the probability that the highest level of the base character increases, but the amount of increase of the highest level may be changed. In this case, for example, if an “R” material character is used for a “R” base character, the maximum level is increased by “2”, and a “SR” material character is used for a “R” base character. In this case, the highest level may be increased by “5”. That is, the higher the rarity of the material character, the greater the amount of increase in the maximum level of the base character.

Also, for example, when a base character is strengthened by using a plurality of material characters with the same name, a case has been described in which it is determined whether or not the highest level is increased once for each material character. For example, in the case of using two material characters with a probability of increasing the maximum level of “30%” to strengthen it, the case where it is judged twice whether to increase the maximum level by 1 with a probability of 30% has been described. You may make it judge only once whether the maximum level increases by 1 with a probability of "60%" by adding up "30%" and "30%".

[5-2. Modifications related to the second technique]

For example, the special effect character may have an effect on the development process of the main character in the success part by organizing it in the event deck as well as the score bonus in the stadium part, and the result of the development of the main character in the success part It may be made to produce an effect with respect to. For example, by organizing a special effect character in the event deck, an effect that does not occur other than a specific period may occur during the success part, or a bonus of the ability parameter may be given to the main character character at the end of the success part.

Also, for example, when special effects characters are organized on the event deck, the period during which a specific effect occurs in the success part and the period during which the score bonus is added to the original character developed using the special effect character may be the same or different. do.

For example, although the case where a score bonus is added at the end of a match in a limited-time event by cultivating an original character using a special effect character has been described, it may be effective during a match in a limited-time event. For example, the ability parameter of the original character placed in the order may increase, or the score of the team may increase.

Also, for example, the case where the score bonus generated by using the special effect character is displayed in the event deck setting area A340 (Fig. 32) of the event deck setting screen image G300 (Fig. 5) has been described, but the effect caused by the special effect character The screen for displaying is not limited thereto, and may be displayed on any screen related to the event character corresponding to the special effect character. For example, the score bonus by the special effect character may be displayed in the event character screen image G400 (FIG. 7) of the special effect character. Similarly, the score bonus given to the original character may be displayed in the list of the original character.

Also, for example, the case where a score bonus is given when the main character is fostered while the special characters are organized on the event deck during the period of the limited-time event has been described. In the case where the main character is fostered in a state where . That is, the main character may be nurtured in a state in which the special effect characters are organized on the event deck, and the period of nurturing may be earlier than the holding period of the limited-time event.

[5-3. Modifications regarding the third technique]

In addition, for example, by making it possible to select any one of a plurality of skilled exercises displayed in the skilled practice areas A346 and A1646 ( FIGS. 6, 10, 22, and 32 ), the event character having the selected skill practice selected by the user is displayed on the display unit (15) may be displayed. In this way, the user can easily create an event deck for efficiently strengthening a desired capability parameter. In this case, the exercise display control unit 1190 specifies the exercise selected by the user from among a plurality of exercises based on the input from the input unit 14 . Then, the exercise display control unit 1190 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and selects an event character whose specific exercise is an expert exercise. The exercise display control unit 1190 may display only the specific event character among the event characters possessed by the user on the display unit 15 . In addition, for example, the exercise display control unit 1190 may display an event character whose exercise selected by the user is an expert exercise, and other event characters, separately.

Also, for example, by making it possible to select any one of a plurality of skill exercises displayed in the skilled practice areas A346 and A1646 ( FIGS. 6, 10, 22, and 32 ), setting frames A344-1 to A344-5, A345 6, 10, 22, 32) of the event characters (i.e., event characters organized in the event deck at the present time) shown by the user, the event character having skill practice selected by the user can be identified on the display unit 15 may be displayed. In this way, for example, the user can easily specify an event character having a confident ability that he wants to replace, so that the desired event deck can be set easily. In this case, the exercise display control unit 1190 specifies the exercise selected by the user from among a plurality of exercises based on the input from the input unit 14 . Then, the practice display control unit 1190 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and the event deck table TBL 303 to specify the skill practice of the event character currently organized in the event deck. In addition, the practice display control part 1190 may make it acquire from the server 30 the skill practice of an assistant. The exercise display control unit 1190 compares the exercise selected by the user with the skill exercise of the event character organized in the event deck, and displays the comparison result on the display unit 15 . For example, the exercise display control unit 1190 distinguishes and displays an event character in which the exercise selected by the user is a skilled exercise and an event character in which the exercise selected by the user is not a skilled exercise. The exercise display control unit 1190 may change the display form of an event character whose exercise selected by the user is a skilled exercise and an event character whose exercise selected by the user is not a skilled exercise from each other, for example by changing their color tone or brightness. In this way, a distinguishing display may be performed. In this case, the display of the event character whose exercise selected by the user is skilled exercise may be displayed brighter, and the event character whose exercise selected by the user is skilled exercise may be displayed darker than that.

[5-4. Modifications related to the fourth technique]

Also, for example, a time limit may be set for the main character that can be fostered in the success part. In this case, the time information regarding the success part is stored in the "nurture status" field of the original character table TBL 304 . This time is the start time of the success part, a predetermined time later than the start time, or a time limit in which the success part can be played. The first game execution unit 1020 may determine whether or not the time limit determined based on the time information has elapsed at the present time, and when it is determined that the time has elapsed, the development of the main character may be stopped and a new attempt may be made.

Further, for example, the section selectable by the user may differ depending on the event characters organized in the event deck. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 or the like stores information indicating the relationship between each section and event characters that can be organized in the event deck. The first game execution unit 1020 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 to specify a section selectable by the event characters organized in the event deck, and executes the specified section in the success part. In this way, since a specific option is generated by a specific event character, it is possible to motivate the user to collect many kinds of event characters.

In addition, a specific option may be generated when the next section is selected by a combination of a specific event character and a scenario. In this case, when the combination of a specific event character and a scenario is a specific combination, a specific option arises when selecting the next section. In this way, since a specific option is generated by a combination of a specific event character and a scenario, it is possible to provide the user with an opportunity to use many event characters.

In addition, there may be a branch that occurs on condition that there is an event character of a specific combination in the event deck. That is, when there is an event character of a specific combination in the event deck, there may be a section in which the user can select. In this case, in the individual data storage unit 1000 or the like, information indicating a relationship between a predetermined combination of event characters and information on branching is stored. The branch information is information indicating a user-selectable section. The first game execution unit 1020 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 and determines whether the combination of event characters organized in the event deck is a predetermined combination indicated by the information. Then, when it is determined that the first game execution unit 1020 is a predetermined combination, a branch associated with the combination is generated. In other words, the first game execution unit 1020 generates a branch that occurs only in the case of a predetermined combination, and advances the section selected by the user based on the input from the input unit 14 . In addition, here, a section may be automatically selected without a user's selection. In this way, since a specific option is generated by a combination of a plurality of specific event characters, it is possible to motivate the user to collect many kinds of event characters. In addition, there may be a branch which occurs on condition that one specific event character is organized in the event deck instead of a combination of specific event characters. In addition, two or more of this specific event character may be prepared. That is, when "A", "B", and "C" are prepared as specific event characters, a predetermined branch may occur if only one of these is organized in the event deck.

Moreover, for example, a predetermined effect may generate|occur|produce in the success part based on the combination of the section which the user selected, and the event character organized in the event deck. In this case, the individual data storage unit 1000 or the like stores information indicating the relationship between each section, the event character, and the effect. The first effect generating unit 1021 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 and determines whether or not event characters associated with the section being executed are organized in the event deck. The first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect associated with the section and the event character in the success part when it is determined that it is built-in.

Further, for example, an effect may occur in the success part based on a combination of sections selected by the user in the present or in the past. In this case, in the individual data storage unit 1000 or the like, information indicating the relationship between the combination of sections and the effect is stored. It is assumed that information indicating the section selected by the user is stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 . The 1st effect generation|occurrence|production part 1021 will generate|occur|produce in success part the effect associated with the combination of the section currently selected by a user, and a past section, or the combination of the several section selected by a user in the past. In other words, when a plurality of branches occur in the success part, the first effect generating unit 1021 may generate a predetermined effect in the success part based on a combination of branches selected by the user in the past. For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 may generate a predetermined effect in the third section of the success part based on the combination of the first section and the second section selected by the user. In other words, the first effect generating unit 1021 may generate an effect that occurs only when the user selects a branch of a predetermined combination in the success part. For example, the first effect generating unit 1021 may generate an effect that occurs only when the combination of the first section and the second section selected by the user is a predetermined combination in the third section of the success part. do.

Further, for example, the section selectable in the future may be changed based on a combination of sections selected by the user in the present or in the past. In this case, in the individual data storage unit 1000 or the like, information indicating a relation between a combination of sections and a selectable section is stored. In addition, information indicating the section selected by the user is stored in the data storage unit 100 . The second game execution unit makes it possible to select only the section related to the combination of the sections selected by the user from among the sections existing in the success part. In this way, since a specific option is generated by the combination of the options, it is possible to provide the user with an opportunity to try the combination of the options. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a scenario that the user can enjoy a plurality of times.

[5-5. Modifications related to the fifth technique]

Moreover, for example, although the case where a challenge letter is sent when a friend overtakes a user's score was demonstrated in embodiment, you may make it provide predetermined|prescribed privilege with respect to the user by which the score was overtaken. And the privilege may be the privilege which makes it easier to overtake the friend who overtaken the score. For example, you may make it easy to overtake a friend by providing a special effect character, a game item, etc. with respect to the user by which the score was overtaken by the friend.

For example, although the case where a challenge letter is sent when a friend overtakes a certain user's score has been described, the challenge letter may be sent based on whether or not the friend's score satisfies a preset condition. For example, the challenge letter may be sent when the difference between the user's score and the friend's score is within a predetermined value, or the challenge letter may be sent when the friend's score differs from the user's score by a predetermined value or more. Similarly, a challenge letter may be sent when the difference between the rankings of the user and the friend is within a predetermined value, or the challenge letter may be sent when the friend differs from the user's ranking by a predetermined value or more.

For example, although the case where the score of each user is reset every predetermined period was demonstrated, a score does not need to be reset. Note that the timing at which the score is reset may not be the timing at which the predetermined period has elapsed. For example, the score may be reset at the timing when the user achieves the given goal.

Moreover, for example, although the case where the high score of each user in a predetermined period was competed was demonstrated, you may make it compete with the accumulated score of each user. In this case, the accumulated value of the score in a predetermined period may be sufficient, and the accumulated value of the score in all the past periods may be sufficient.

Also, for example, all of the user's friends do not have to be the target of the challenge. For example, only the friend designated by the user among the friends may be the target of the challenge. In addition, for example, when playing by forming a team by a plurality of users, only the users of the same team may be the object of the challenge. In addition, only users who have applied for a match in the past or users who have applied for a match in the past may be the target of the challenge.

For example, although the case where the conductive sheet is automatically sent has been described, the conductive sheet may be sent when the user performs a predetermined operation. In other words, instead of sending the challenge to the user immediately after the friend overtakes the user's score, the sending of the challenge may be made to wait until the friend or the user performs a predetermined operation.

Moreover, for example, you may limit the number of sheets of challenge sheets which can be sent by a certain user. For example, you may limit the number of times of sending a conductive sheet, such as up to three times a day.

Further, for example, the reward of a game using a challenge field may be different from that of a normal game. In this case, a match using a conductive field may be rewarded better than a normal match. Note that, for example, if a configuration is set in which you can play against a friend without consuming match tickets or the like (herein referred to as a practice match), rewards such as medals and tickets may not be obtained in this practice match, but In a game using , a reward may be obtained. In addition, in the case where a reward is obtained even in a practice match, a match using a challenge field may result in a better reward than that of the practice match. Conversely, in a match using a conductive field, a reward may not be obtained. Note that the difference in reward may be a difference in whether the reward is large or small, or may be a difference in the type of reward.

Moreover, for example, you may make it send a challenge letter based on other than a score and a ranking. For example, in the case of a game in which a user advances a plurality of stages, a challenge letter may be sent when a friend overtakes a stage in which the user is progressing.

[5-6. Other variations]

For example, as explained with reference to Fig. 3, when the user plays the success part, the event deck is set in the free part to start the main part, but after that, the event deck is in the middle of playing the main part. It is also possible to make it impossible to change the contents (so that the event characters formed in the event deck cannot be changed or replaced). In this way, it is possible to start the main part after sufficiently examining the main character's training policy and the contents of the event deck, and it is possible to have more tension in the game. Conversely, the main part WHEREIN: You may make it possible to change the content of an event deck. In this case, in the case where the development of the main character in the main part does not go as expected, the contents of the event deck can be re-viewed on the way and the trajectory of the development of the main character can be corrected.

Moreover, although the case where the user selects what is formed in the event deck from among a plurality of event characters was exemplified, for example, only one event character may be sufficient. In this case, the level change unit 1040 changes the level parameter of one event character. Then, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect on the success part related to the change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character, based on the level parameter of one event character. In addition, the effect display control unit 1060 includes correspondence relation information indicating a correspondence relation between a level parameter of one event character and an effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021 (eg, bonus details in FIG. 8 ). Control for displaying the screen image G500 on the display unit 15 is executed. Except that there is one event character, this process is the same as that described in the embodiment.

In this case, each function described as being realized by the user terminal 10 is mainly realized by the control unit 31 . Conversely, the functions described as being realized by the server 30 may be realized by the user terminal 10 . In this case, the functions described as being realized by the server 30 are mainly realized by the control unit 11 . In addition, the processing may be shared between the user terminal 10 and the server 30 .

For example, the first game execution unit 1020 , the first effect generating unit 1021 , and the parameter changing unit 1022 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, each of the first game executing unit 1020 , the first effect generating unit 1021 , and the parameter changing unit 1022 transmits the execution result of the success part to the user terminal 10 . When the user terminal 10 receives the execution result of the success part from the server 30 , it is stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 .

Further, for example, the change target selection unit 1030 and the level change unit 1040 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, the change target selection unit 1030 and the level change unit 1040 transmit the reinforcement result of the base character to the user terminal 10 , respectively. In the user terminal 10 , upon receiving the base character reinforcement result from the server 30 , it is stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 .

Also, for example, the use target selection unit 1050 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, the use target selection unit 1050 acquires information indicating the event character selected by the user from the user terminal 10 .

Further, for example, the effect display control unit 1060 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, the effect display control unit 1060 generates and transmits the display data of the bonus detailed screen image G500 ( FIG. 8 ) to the user terminal 10 .

Further, for example, the second game execution unit 1170 , the special effect determination unit 1171 , and the second effect generation unit 1172 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, each of the second game execution unit 1170 , the special effect determination unit 1171 , and the second effect generation unit 1172 transmits the execution result of the stadium part to the user terminal 10 . In the user terminal 10 , when the execution result of the stadium part is received from the server 30 , it is stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 .

Also, for example, the distinction display control unit 1150 may be realized by the server 30 . In this case, the distinguishing display control unit 1150 generates the display data of the event deck setting area A340 ( FIGS. 6 , 10 , 22 and 32 ) and transmits it to the user terminal 10 .

Also, for example, the performance determining unit 3040 and the game providing unit 3050 may be realized in the user terminal 10 . In this case, the performance determining unit 3040 and the game providing unit 3050 obtain the friend's performance from the server 30, compare it with the user's performance, and permit the user to compete when the friend overtakes it.

Further, for example, the conductive field display control unit 3060 may be realized in the user terminal 10 . In this case, the challenge challenge display control unit 3060 transmits data indicating the challenge challenge to the server 30 or the friend's user terminal 10 .

In addition, for example, although the case where a baseball game is performed was demonstrated in embodiment, you may apply this invention to another game. What is necessary is just to apply to the game in which the parameter of a game object is changed or set based on a user's operation, for example, you may apply to the upbringing|bringing part and love parts in a love simulation game. Moreover, you may apply to the upbringing part and battle parts in a role-playing game, for example.
