According to the game execution apparatus and the operation method thereof of the present invention, an automatic entry function is set for a specific stage of a game being executed, so that the game enters the specific stage without any user operation related to entry into the specific stage, By automatically performing a game mission at a specific stage, user convenience associated with game progress can be greatly improved.

1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a game execution device according to an embodiment of the present invention;
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a game execution apparatus, and more particularly,
3 is a flowchart for explaining an operation flow for executing an automatic entry function in a game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention;

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a diagram showing a game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a setting unit 100 for setting an automatic entry mode, a confirmation unit 200 for confirming whether or not the automatic entry mode is set, And a control unit (300) for automatically performing a game mission according to an entry mode setting.

Here, all or a part of the configuration of the game execution apparatus including the setting unit 100, the confirmation unit 200, and the control unit 300 may be implemented in the form of a software module (e.g., an application) But may also be implemented in other forms of hardware modules.

The game execution device refers to a mobile device on which an application related to a game is mounted. For example, a smart phone, a tablet PC, a PDA, and the like may be applicable. All possible devices may be included.

Here, the game executed in the game execution apparatus may be an online game mode not only in the mobile environment but also in a wired network. Accordingly, the game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention may include not only the above- For example, a personal computer (PC), a notebook computer, and the like capable of accessing an online game through the Internet.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a method of automatically advancing a game without requiring a separate user operation related to the progress of the game is adopted as an object to improve the convenience of the progress of the game.

In the case of the existing game environment, each of the stages is composed of a plurality of stages having unique game missions. By setting an automatic game progress mode for a specific stage desired by the user among the plurality of stages, It is common to implement this function automatically without user intervention.

However, in order to set the automatic game progression in the existing game environment, the entry to the specific stage desired for the automatic game progression should be given priority, and after the entry into the specific stage, the actual setting about the automatic game progression Lt; / RTI >

As a result, in order to set an automatic game progression mode, it means that a direct operation (for example, a click for entering the stage) is required for entering a specific stage at a specific stage desired for automatic game progression. Which is not consistent with the purpose of the automatic game progression method to be performed.

Accordingly, in one embodiment of the present invention, a method for implementing an automatic entry function, which is a function capable of automatically entering a specific stage requiring an automatic game progress method, without a separate user operation, is proposed. I will explain.

The setting unit 100 performs a function of setting an automatic entry function.

More specifically, the setting unit 100 sets an automatic entry function for a specific stage selected when a specific stage requiring automatic game progression is selected among a plurality of stages included in a game being executed.

At this time, in order to set the automatic entry function for the specific stage, whether or not the user who is playing the game acquires the predefined function setting authority, and whether the user who is playing the game satisfies the predefined function setting condition Confirmation should be preceded.

Herein, in the case of acquiring the function setting authority, the method may be performed by purchasing a separate item provided in the game with respect to the automatic entry function. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, Such as raising the player to the level, or the like, depending on the designation of the game operator.

In the case where the function setting condition is satisfied, a game mission provided in the stage may be accomplished, for example, one or more times before the automatic entry function is set for the specific stage for which the automatic entry function is to be set And this may also be done in a variety of ways depending on the game operator designation, rather than being limited thereto.

As a result, the setting unit 100 determines whether or not the user who is playing the game has acquired the function setting authority and the automatic entry function for the specific stage that desires the automatic game progression method only when it is confirmed that the function setting condition is satisfied .

If the user who is playing the game fails to acquire the function setting authority or the function setting condition is not satisfied, a method of informing the user through a separate pop-up message may be considered.

On the other hand, the setting unit 100 confirms that the user who is playing the game has already acquired the function setting authority and that the function setting condition is satisfied, and sets the automatic entry function to the specific stage substantially A separate entry permit condition associated with entry into the specific stage is set together.

Here, in the case of the entry permitting condition, the constraint condition for determining whether the current state of the user related to the game execution is suitable for automatic entry into a specific stage is referred to.

As the current state of the user related to the game progress set as the entry permission condition, for example, there is an inventory sufficient to store compensation (e.g., monster, equipment, game money, etc.) And whether or not the player has possessed the goods (e.g., game money) required to enter a specific stage, and the like, and the various present states may be reflected according to the game operator designation .

As a result, in setting the automatic entry function, the setting unit 100 sets the current state of the user related to the game progress as an entry permitting condition, so that at the time of automatically entering the specific stage in which the automatic entry function is set, Only when the current state of the user is satisfied with the entry permission condition, automatic entry to the specific stage can be permitted.

In addition, in the process of setting the automatic entry function, the setting unit 100 sets an entry allowable time associated with entry into the specific stage together with the entry allowable condition, from the time point when the automatic entry function for the specific stage is set So that it is possible to allow repeated entry into the specific stage only before the set allowable time elapses.

The confirming unit 200 performs a function of confirming that the automatic entry function is set for a specific stage or the like.

More specifically, after the automatic entry function is set for the specific stage, the confirmation unit 200 confirms whether or not the actual automatic entry function is set to the specific stage for the substantial automatic entry to the specific stage.

At this time, if it is determined that the automatic entry function has been set for the specific stage, the confirmation unit 200 determines whether the entry allowable time set additionally in the process of setting the automatic entry function has elapsed for the actual activation of the automatic entry function And whether the current state of the user associated with the game progress meets the entry permit condition.

The control unit 300 performs a function of automatically entering a specific stage in which an automatic entry function is set and performing a game mission.

More specifically, the control unit 300 determines that the automatic entry is set for a specific stage, and that the entry allowable time has not elapsed, and that the current state of the user related to the game progress satisfies the set entry permission condition Unit 200, it automatically enters the specific stage without any user operation related to entry into the specific stage.

At this time, the control unit 200 controls the game missions provided in the specific stage to be automatically performed without any user operation related to the user character in the game after the automatic entry into the specific stage.

When the game mission is completed in the specific stage after the automatic entry into the specific stage, the control unit 200 determines whether the allowable time has passed or not, It is controlled to check again whether or not the state satisfies the entry permitting condition.

This is to allow the automatic entry operation to the specific stage to be repeated until the entry allowable time set in the automatic entry function has elapsed.

As described above, according to the game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, an automatic entry function is set for a specific stage of a game being executed, and the game is executed without any user operation related to entering the specific stage. So that the game mission in the specific stage is automatically performed, so that the user convenience associated with the progress of the game can be greatly improved.

Hereinafter, an operation method of the game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2 and FIG.

Here, for convenience of description, the components shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to corresponding reference numerals.

First, referring to Fig. 2, an operation flow for setting an automatic entry function in the game execution apparatus will be described.

Then, when it is confirmed that the user who is playing the game acquires the function setting authority, the setting unit 100 further checks whether the user who is playing the game satisfies the predefined function setting condition (S120 - S130 ).

At this time, the setting unit 100 satisfies the function setting condition through a method of completing the game mission provided at the stage at least one time before the automatic entry function is set, for the specific stage for which the automatic entry function is to be set Or not.

Thereafter, the setting unit 100 sets an automatic entry function for a specific stage that desires an automatic game progression mode only when a user who is playing a game has acquired a function setting right and it is confirmed that the function setting condition is satisfied (S150).

At this time, the setting unit 100 confirms that the user who is playing the game has already acquired the function setting authority and the condition that the function setting condition is satisfied, and sets the automatic entry function for the specific stage substantially A separate entry permit condition associated with entry into the specific stage is set together.

Here, the setting unit 100 determines whether there is sufficient inventory to store compensation (e.g., monster, equipment, game money, etc.) that can be acquired in the game mission execution process, The current state of the user related to the game progress, such as whether or not the player has the goods (e.g., game money) required for the game.

In addition, in the process of setting the automatic entry function, the setting unit 100 sets an entry allowable time associated with entry into the specific stage together with the entry allowable condition, from the time point when the automatic entry function for the specific stage is set So that it is possible to allow repeated entry into the specific stage only before the set allowable time elapses.

Next, the operation flow for executing the automatic entry function performed by the game execution device will be described with reference to FIG.

First, after the automatic entry function is set for the specific stage, the verification unit 200 determines whether the actual automatic entry function is set in the specific stage for the actual automatic entry of the specific stage (S210).

Then, when it is confirmed that the automatic entry function is set for the specific stage, the confirmation unit 200 additionally sets the additional entry allowable time elapsed in the setting process of the automatic entry function for the substantial activation of the automatic entry function (S220 - S230).

If it is determined that the entry allowable time has not elapsed, the verifying unit 200 checks whether the current state of the user related to the game progress satisfies the entry permitting condition (S240 - S250).

At this time, the confirmation unit 200 determines whether there is enough inventory to store compensation (e.g., monster, equipment, game money, etc.) that can be acquired in the game mission execution process, And whether the current state of the user related to the game progress, such as whether or not the player has the goods (e.g., game money) required for the game, satisfies the entry permission condition.

Thereafter, the control unit 300 determines that the automatic entry is set for the specific stage, and that the entry allowable time has not elapsed, and that the current state of the user related to the game progress satisfies the set entry permission condition 200 to automatically enter the specific stage without any user operation related to entry into the specific stage (S260-S270).

At this time, the control unit 200 controls the game missions provided in the specific stage to be automatically performed without any user operation related to the user character in the game after the automatic entry into the specific stage.

In addition, when the game mission performed in the specific stage is completed after the automatic entry into the specific stage, the controller 200 causes the checking unit 200 to determine whether the allowable entry time has elapsed, (Step S280) so as to repeat the operation of automatically entering the specific stage until a time before the entry allowable time set in the automatic entry function has elapsed, by checking again whether or not the state satisfies the entrance permitting condition .

As described above, according to the operation method of the game execution apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, an automatic entry function can be set for a specific stage of a game being executed, The user can enter the specific stage to automatically perform the game mission in the specific stage, thereby greatly improving the user convenience associated with the game progress.
