1243068 五、發明說明α) [發明所屬之技術領域] 本發明係關於一種遊戲系統及方法,更詳而言之,係 關於一種以網路電話(IP phone)作為使用平臺的遊戲系 統及方法。 [先前技術] V ο I P ( V 〇 i c e 〇 v e r I P)網路電話,是將語音訊號壓 縮成數據資料封包,並於I P網路基礎上傳送語音服務,亦 即,透過網際網路(以下簡稱I n t e r n e t)傳送語音之電信 應用服務系統。隨著I n t e r n e t的普及,網路電話之連線費 用也越來越低廉,使用者透過Interne t撥國内或國際長途 電話,較以市内電話的費率來計費,可節省6 0 %以上的長 途電話費用。而且,由於科技發展且寬頻網路日益發達, V ο I P網路電話提供高穩定性的語音服務,幾乎可比擬傳統 電話的通話品質,故使用者不但可以節省高額的通話費, 更可以享有高品質的語音服務。因此,VoIP( Voice over I P)網路電話以上述之優勢而為大眾所接受。 然而,一般之V ο I P網路電話僅設定單一的語音通訊功 能,而單以語音方式來達成雙方之溝通,甚有不便之處。 例如,相離兩地之使用者間除了以語音來傳遞相關訊息之 外,亦需取得對方之即時表情(例如高興、氣憤等),而 達到面對面之交流效果,為此,視訊支援實為必要。或 者,工程師傳輸一工程項目時,透過圖表方式來表達與該 工程項目相關之諸多細節時,視訊支援更顯必要。因此, 令網路電話(IP phone)加設顯不幕(LCD)等視訊支援1243068 V. Description of the invention α) [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a game system and method, and more specifically, to a game system and method using an IP phone as a use platform. [Prior technology] V ο IP (V 〇ice 〇ver IP) Internet phone, is a voice signal compressed into data packets, and based on the IP network to transmit voice services, that is, through the Internet (hereinafter referred to as Internet) Telecom application service system for transmitting voice. With the popularity of Internet, the connection cost of Internet phone is getting lower and lower. Users can dial domestic or international long-distance calls through Interne t, which can save 60% compared with the rate of local calls. The cost of long distance calls above. In addition, due to the development of technology and the increasingly developed broadband network, V ο IP telephones provide highly stable voice services, which are almost comparable to the call quality of traditional telephones, so users can not only save high call costs, but also enjoy high Quality voice service. Therefore, VoIP (Voice over IP) Internet phone is accepted by the public with the above advantages. However, the general V ο IP phone only has a single voice communication function, and it is very inconvenient to use only voice to achieve communication between the two parties. For example, in addition to using voice to communicate related information between users in two places, they also need to obtain the other person ’s real-time expressions (such as happiness, anger, etc.) to achieve face-to-face communication. To this end, video support is necessary. . Or, when an engineer transmits an engineering project, the graphic support is used to express many details related to the engineering project, and video support is even more necessary. As a result, IP phones have been added with video support such as LCD

Description of the invention (2) The technology makes the function of the Internet phone more powerful. In this way, the producers can use this network to share the market share of the SFL product market. In order to increase the commercial benefits of Internet phone manufacturers, it is also a common goal sought by all manufacturers. Based on the fact that Internet telephony already has video support technologies such as LCD, Internet telephony manufacturers have continued to develop various entertainment features of Internet telephony in order to enhance more potential business benefits to better meet user needs. . For example, in the current era of the Internet, online games are a relatively common entertainment item for users, and gradually become one of the entertainment items that users do n’t have to work. To this end, online game functions are set up on Internet phones. It should also be one of the ways for Internet phone manufacturers to increase the market share of Internet phones. Therefore, making the Internet phone with this new online game function, and further making the Internet phone a source of entertainment for users is a problem that needs to be solved at present. [Summary of the Invention] In view of the above objects, the main object of the present invention is to provide a game system and method, which are applied to an Internet phone and another Internet phone or network device (such as Desktop computers, digital assistants, digital game consoles, and other electronic devices), so that in addition to general communication functions, the Internet phone also provides users with online gaming functions. Another object of the present invention is to provide a game system and method, which uses an internet phone as a platform for online games, and makes the internet

In step S310, when the interruption is confirmed as a local input interruption, that is, the interruption is an instruction from the input unit of the first Internet phone 10 about the game item message, and the first Internet phone The central processing unit 25 of 10 processes the received instruction about the game item information, and proceeds to step S330. In this step S 3 30, the display unit 27 of the first Internet telephone 10 is caused to display the game information processed by the central processing unit 25, and the process proceeds to step S 3 40. In this step S 3 40, the central processing unit 25 of the first Internet telephone 10 sends the processed game information to the second Internet telephone 1 4 through the Internet telephone server 12 to be transmitted by the first The display unit 2 7 of the two Internet phones 14 displays it. In the step S 3 50, when the first Internet phone 10 confirms that the interruption is a network input interruption, that is, the interruption is transmitted from the second Internet phone 1 4 through the Internet phone server 12 Instructions about the game item, or
