In addition, when the administrator sets the difficulty of the game mission through the manager terminal device 20, the web server 40 transmits the event-related information to the game server 30 (S414).

Meanwhile, as described above, the game type and the difficulty of the game mission may be set by the administrator of the web server 40 in consideration of the event product and the event time, but may be set by the advertiser through the advertiser terminal device 22. .

When event related information is registered according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 4, when the user terminal device 10 is connected to the game server 30, the game server 30 uses the automatic update function to display the advertisement image and product information. It can transmit to the terminal device 10. In addition, even when game missions are changed or added, the game server 30 may transmit an advertisement image, an image, and provided prize information to the user terminal device 10 using an automatic update function. Accordingly, the updated advertisement image, product information, and game mission may be stored in the user terminal device 10 (S502). As such, since the advertisement image, product information, and game mission programs, which are updated in advance before the event reminder is executed, are stored in the user terminal device 10, the cost of data transmission and data traffic during automatic update or game is increased. It can be prevented to some extent.

According to the event related information registered according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 4, the game server 30 generates a premium game event at a predetermined time (S504).

When the prize game event occurs, the game server 30 checks whether the registered plurality of user terminal devices 10 are connected to the game server 30 (S506). If the user terminal device 10 is not connected to the game server 30, the game server 30 checks an operating system (OS) of the user terminal device 10 (S508). In this case, the operating system of the user terminal device 10 may be information stored when the user registers as a member of the prize game service.

The game server 30 transmits a notification service according to the operating system of the user terminal device 10 (S510). If the operating system of the user terminal device 10 is an Apple system, in this case, it is possible to notify the prize game event using the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS).

When the user participates in the event through a login connection or the like according to the notification service (S512), an advertisement related to the prize game event is displayed on the user terminal device 10 (S514). In this case, an advertisement stored in the user terminal device 10 may be displayed, or an advertisement provided from the game server 30 may be displayed in the user terminal device 10.

When all of the advertisements are displayed, the user terminal device 10 may determine that the user has viewed the advertisement, and may receive advertisement viewing information. Also, the game server 30 may determine the number of the user terminal apparatus 10 for displaying the advertisement in real time. Can be identified and stored (S516). This allows the advertiser to see how many people have seen the advertisement.

After the advertisement, the product related to the game event is displayed on the user terminal device 10 (S518). In this case, the product types provided by the advertiser may provide various products such as products, cash, gift certificates, points, and securities.

Subsequently, when the user participates in the prize game, the user terminal 10 introduces a mission to the game (S520). Game missions can be categorized into games that are performed indefinitely until the mission is completed and games that rerun the mission later when the mission is not completed.

After the mission introduction is completed, after confirming the participation of the event to the event participants, if the user approves the participation in the event game, the prize game service is started (S522). In this case, the user terminal device 10 may automatically record a screen displayed on the display unit in real time.

If the user wins the game by performing the mission, the user terminal device 10 automatically transmits the winning screen stored with the winning information to the game server 30 (524). The game server 30 transmits the transmitted winning information to all the users performing the mission, and the user terminal device 10 displays the current real-time winning number. Meanwhile, the game server 30 may transmit an advertisement by placing an advertisement time in the middle of the game.

If all the winners according to the number of prizes provided in the game are achieved, the game server 30 may end the game and transmit the winning authentication information to the user terminal device 10 of the winners (S526). The winning authentication information may be a barcode, a QR code or an authentication number. In addition, in order for a user to exchange a corresponding product at a designated place, the winning authentication information needs to be provided to the advertiser terminal device 30.

On the other hand, the present invention can be credited in cash or cyber money instead of winning authentication information. Therefore, when the user wins cash, the user can automatically transfer the corresponding funds to the winner's personal account information, and can also purchase the merchandise in the shopping mall using cyber money.

In addition, when the prize game is completed, the game server 30 may obtain the target information of the event participants according to the event type by using the information of the event participants (S528). The target information may further consider personal information such as gender, age, region, education, location information, and recommender count information of event participants. The target information obtained here may be linked to the type of the generated premium game event.

As described in FIG. 5, when the mission introduction is completed, a prize game service is started (S602). When the prize game service is started, the user terminal device 10 generates a video file to be stored (S604). The identification number of the user terminal device 10 is recorded in the header information of the video file. During a game mission, items that help accomplish the mission and items that hinder the mission may appear.

The user terminal device 10 automatically generates a video file and simultaneously records a screen displayed on the display unit in real time (S606). This automatic recording will continue until the user completes the game mission. In this case, automatic recording may be performed using a method of storing coordinate information of each appearance object and a codec of a video storing function. Here, each appearance object refers to target variables, holes, slingshots, and projectiles, which are control variables required for a game mission.

If the user succeeds in the game mission (S608), the winning screen is displayed on the screen of the user terminal device 10 (S610). If the success of the game mission is continuously checked by the prize game client program, the winning event is generated when the game mission is successful. When the winning event is generated, the prize game client program displays that the winning game is displayed on the screen of the user terminal device 10 to notify the user of the winning fact.

The user terminal device 10 captures only the winning screen, creates an image, and records the image as a header image in the video file (S612). Here, the header image refers to an image representing information of the video file as an image before executing the video file. By recording the header image in the video file, it is possible to prevent the difficulty of checking the information about the winnings in the entire video file.

When the header image is recorded in the moving image file, the prize game client program closes the moving image file (S614), terminates the game mission, or, if a plurality of wins are possible, causes the game mission to be performed again.

The user terminal device 10 encodes the video file according to the prize game client program and transmits the video file to the game server 30 (S616), and the game server 30 decodes the video file (S618).

The game server 30 checks the winning fact through the header image of the video file (S620). When the game server 30 confirms the winning fact, the game server 30 reduces the number of stars representing the number of prizes and also stores the moving image file.

The game server 30 transmits the transmitted winning information to all users performing the mission, and the current winning number is displayed on the user terminal device 10 (S622). Meanwhile, the game server 30 may transmit an advertisement by placing an advertisement time in the middle of the game.

When all the winners according to the number of prizes provided in the game are achieved, the game server 30 ends the game and transmits the winning authentication information to the user terminal device 10 of the winners (S624).
