Referring to FIG. 3, the mobile terminal recognizes its current location by communicating with a plurality of GPS satellites in real time through the GPS module 128 (S102). The calculated current position information is stored in the memory 122. The control unit 121 scans whether there is a registration place in the vicinity of the predetermined space based on the recognized position information (S104).

Referring to FIG. 4A, the smile face icon 130 on the map is where the current player is located, and the red round head pins 134, 136, 138, and 140 indicate a registration place. Here, the registration place may be a building, a building or a bus station, or a public place such as a museum, a monument, a square, a clock tower, etc., fixed at a geographic location such as a restaurant, a coffee shop, a health club, a workplace, and the like where the game player frequently visits. The red round head pins 134 and 136 contained within the circle space 132 of a certain radius from the current player's position 130 are scanned into the surrounding registration place. The icons 130a, 132a, 134a, 136a, 138a and 140a and the purple connecting lines 142 connecting them are displayed on the touch screen of the mobile terminal of the actual player.

In FIG. 4B, even if the location of the registration place and the connection line on the game space are changed, the geographical location on the actual map does not change. That is, the registration place icon layout structure on the game space can be arbitrarily changed from the layout structure of reference numeral 142 to the layout structure of reference numeral 144. In other words, the node corresponds to the registration position, and the connecting line connecting the nodes indicates the social community activity such as the number of visits and the rating evaluation of the player and the registration place.

If the place registered in the step S104 exists within a predetermined space (S106), this game information is reported to the game server to obtain a simple visiting game score (S108). In other words, in the case of a place that is mainly visited in the real life activity space of the gamer, the social activity game score is obtained simply by visiting the place.

The controller 121 checks whether the player performs an SNS activity, for example, an activity of posting his / her star rating online for an arbitrary place using a mobile terminal in an arbitrary real space (S110). If there is no SNS activity in step S110 checks whether the mission (S112). If the mission is performed, the game server reports the game score corresponding to the completion of the mission when the mission is completed (S114). The mission performance may be presented here online, offline or a combination thereof.

4C shows an example of mission performance according to an embodiment of the present invention. In other words, for example, "Register where you live", "Register one restaurant you visit often", "You can get 10% discount at XX Mart if you order by 31 days", "Post in 5 places "," 20% discount when you touch the YY brand bag in augmented reality virtual space. " Various mission message windows 146 are presented on the screen as such.

If the SNS activity is checked in step S110, the control unit 121 detects whether the current location space is within the place space associated with the SNS activity (S116). If it does not match at step S116 to report to the game server as a simple SNS activity to obtain a corresponding game score (S124).

4D illustrates a star rating posting 148, which is one of the SNS activities according to an embodiment of the present invention. For example, when the star rating for the XX Art Center is posted online through a mobile terminal, a posting list of the corresponding place is displayed on the screen as shown, and game scores according to SNS activities can be obtained.

It is checked whether the place is within the place space in step S116 but the place is registered by the game player (S118). If it is an unregistered place, it automatically registers and reports a place registration to the game server to obtain a place registration game score (S120).

4E illustrates automatic registration by SNS activity according to an embodiment of the present invention. In other words, if you upload a rating of the XX Art Center online through the mobile terminal in or around the XX Art Center, the current player's location and SNS activity place are the same space and are not registered. It is indicated by the icon 150 of the registration place.

After registration in step S118 or after automatic registration in step S120, LB SNS activity is reported to the game server to obtain a corresponding game score (S122).

If the sum of the acquired game scores is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the icon level up is checked (S126). If the game score is acquired more than the level up level, the icon corresponding to the registration place is leveled up (S128).

4F illustrates a state in which icons of different colors are displayed according to categories of registered locations according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, the registered places are classified by category, for example, a performance hall 152, a convenience store 154, a bank 156, a coffee shop 158, and the like. It can also be managed.

4G illustrates various representations of titles, shapes, and the like of icons of registered locations according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, the shape, shape, or color of the icon corresponding to the registration place is more beautifully changed by the sum of the game scores corresponding to the registration place. For example, a simple two-dimensional geometric image 160 of a rectangle, a pentagon, and a circle is changed into a complex two-dimensional geometric image 162 such as a star shape, and when more game scores are obtained, the three-dimensional image 164 is subsequently changed. Therefore, in order to obtain the number of game scores in order to decorate the color or shape of the icon of the registered place, the player must actively participate in social network activities or directly increase the number of visits to the place or perform the mission online or offline.

4H illustrates a state in which names of registered locations according to an embodiment of the present invention are expressed by original names of different gamers for each registered player. That is, although the coffee shop is located in the same place, it is possible to display various names such as different names, for example, "TOM N TOMS" 170, "Tam & Toms" 172, and "TOM & TOMS" 174. Among these, only the posting list related to the name of the same place but having the same name "TOM N TOMS" 170 appears on the screen of the smartphone. The more people use the names they choose, the higher the game score.

4I shows a huge icon map of registration locations according to an embodiment of the present invention. Here, the icon map 180 displays a picture face in an icon on the place where the player lives. It is a map showing the causal relationship between the player icon and the players by connecting lines. Since the size of the icon map 180 is larger than the size of the terminal screen, the icon map may be moved left and right and up and down by scrolling the screen to view the icons displayed on the screen 182. Here, the icon map 180 represents a friend relationship, and when a friend icon is touched, the icon map 180 may share a place icon map registered by the friend. In addition to earning star ratings or current mood posts for shared registrations, that is, game scores, you can also invite friends to actual geographic locations with the introduction of gamers to reflect actual social activity as game scores. As a result, the interest of the game can be doubled.

Game score in the present invention is given as follows.
