Description

  The present invention relates to a program, a game server, and a game system.

  In amusement facilities and the like, competitive games such as horse racing games that consume and play game value such as medals are known. In such a game, a game mode is also provided in which a racehorse trained by the player himself / herself starts to race and earns a prize according to the results.

  Furthermore, there is also a horse racing game having a game mode in which teams composed of a plurality of racehorses compete for race results (team competition or team battle). For example, in Patent Document 1, a plurality of battles (race) using racehorses are performed in order to compete for the victory and defeat and ranking of each team, and for each battle, according to the arrival order of the racehorses belonging to each team A game system is disclosed in which an acquisition point for each team is determined and a team win / loss and ranking are determined based on the acquired points.

Japanese Patent No. 5590356

  However, in the game described in Patent Document 1, team wins and losses are simply determined by points according to the order of arrival in each match, so the ease of winning for each match is not reflected. In other words, even in races where a lot of strong racehorses are running or races where there are many weak racehorses, the first place is the first place, and it has not been decided to decide the victory or defeat considering the content of the competition. In addition, since the points to be awarded are determined at the time when the victory or defeat of each battle is determined, it was not possible to adjust the points in consideration of the results of other battles. For this reason, before all the battles are over, the difference in the points gained may be too wide, which may prevent the team from fighting to the end.

  Therefore, in the present invention, in a game in which a team wins or loses is determined based on the results of a plurality of battles, the points to be given are adjusted between battles in consideration of the content of each battle, and the team battles heated to the end are heated. It aims to be able to do it.

  A program according to the present invention is a program that causes a computer to function as a game device that executes a game in which a first team and a second team perform a plurality of first battles. Based on the results data in each first battle, the battle result information acquisition unit for acquiring the battle data for each battle between the first team and the second team in the battle, A first point granting unit that determines the first point of one match and grants the determined first point to the winning team of the match, and the total of the first points awarded for each first match Based on the above, it is made to function as an superiority / inferiority determination unit for determining the superiority or inferiority of both teams.

  According to the present invention, in a game in which a team wins or loses is determined based on the results of a plurality of battles, the points to be given are adjusted between battles in consideration of the content of each battle, and the team battles heated to the end are heated. Can be done.

<Outline of the game>
A game that can be played in the game system 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
A game that can be played in the game system 1 of the present embodiment includes a betting game (step S10) for betting a medal on the basis of the race order of racehorses and receiving a payout based on the result of the race. There is a stable game (step S20) which is a breeding game that owns the racehorses and jockeys to participate, trains these racehorses and jockeys to participate in the race, and acquires medals as the owner's prize money according to the arrival order. .

In the game system 1 of the present embodiment, the player can appropriately switch between the betting game (step S10) and the stable game (step S20) by operating the player himself.
When a predetermined number of races have been held since the new horse was produced and the game time has elapsed, the racehorse will retire. In addition, the racehorse owned by the player can be appropriately retired by the operation of the player. Retired horses can participate in a special race in which racehorses retired during a predetermined entry period are collected.

For details of the betting game (step S10), refer to Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2003-93744.
The stable game (step S20) owns and nurtures racehorses, participates in the race, and owns and nurtures horse owner games (step S30) that acquire medals as horse owner prizes according to the arrival order. There is a jockey game (step S40) that participates in a race and acquires a medal as a jockey prize according to the arrival order.

  In the stable game (step S20), first, the player creates his own stable (step S21). The stable is virtually set in the game and is a place where the racehorse is trained and managed. The jockey belongs to the stable. In this embodiment, one stable information is created for each IC card. Information on one stable can include information on up to four racehorses and two jockeys.

  In the owner game (step S30), first, it is determined whether or not the racehorse is owned, that is, whether or not the racehorse information is registered in the inserted IC card (step S31). If the racehorse information is not registered, a medal is inserted to create racehorse information as a new horse (step S32). Even if racehorse information is registered in the IC card, when new racehorse information is created, a medal is inserted and a new horse is produced in step S32. Part of the medals thrown to create a new horse, that is, a predetermined percentage of medals thrown to create a new horse, was used as funds for paying a special race prize. It is accumulated in the game device 10 in the store.

The produced new horse enters the player's own stable (step S33). Therefore, the racehorse information is associated with the stable information. In the owner's game, various games can be played against the racehorse that has been entered.
The player can insert medals and run the racehorse on the racetrack (step S34). In addition, the player can acquire a medal as a prize when the racehorse wins a higher rank. Some of the medals thrown to run the racehorse on the racetrack are accumulated in the game device 10 of the store where the medals were used as funds for paying the prize money for the special race.

The player can insert a medal and train the racehorse by various methods (step S35). Some of the medals thrown in to train the racehorse are accumulated in the game device 10 of the store where the medals were used as funds for paying the prize money for the special race.
Further, the player can insert medals and give various feeds to the racehorse (step S36). Some of the medals thrown in to give the racehorse a fodder are accumulated in the competition game 10 of the store where the medals were used as funds for paying the prize money for the special race.

  When a predetermined number of races have been held since the new horse was produced and the game time has elapsed, the racehorse will retire (step S37). Also, the player's own racehorse can be retired by operation. When retiring, a next-generation new horse that inherits the qualities of the racehorse can be produced (step S32).

  In the jockey game (step S40), it is first determined whether or not there is an affiliated jockey, that is, whether or not jockey information is registered in the inserted IC card (step S41). If no jockey information is registered, new jockey information is created (step S42). Even if jockey information is registered in the IC card, when new jockey information is created, a jockey is created in step S42.

The created jockey belongs to the stable (step S43). Therefore, jockey information is associated with the stable information. In the jockey game, various games can be played against the jockey to which he belongs.
A jockey can be mounted on a racehorse running on a racetrack by a request for riding from a stable (such as a stable of another player or a stable of a computer) (step S44). It should be noted that a medal insertion request may be requested as a riding request fee when requesting a ride. If the racehorse on which the horse rides wins a higher rank, the jockey can also win a medal as a prize money.

The player can insert medals and train the jockey by various methods (step S46).
If the rider rides a predetermined number of races after creating the jockey, the jockey will retire (step S47). When retiring, a next generation jockey that inherits the qualities of the jockey can be created (step S42).

<Team competition>
The team competition game performed in the game system 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The team battle is controlled by the team battle server 98 in an integrated manner. Team competition is a game in which, for example, stores compete against each other, and each team is constituted by a plurality of players belonging to each store. In a team competition, each player belonging to a team participates in a plurality of races and competes for the total of their results.

In the team competition, first, the opponent combination determination unit 901 performs opponent determination processing (matching) (step S51). Specifically, for example, matching is performed by the following procedure so that stores with similar abilities compete against each other.
(Procedure 1) Each store is divided into three groups according to the number of wins and losses of the previous and previous team competitions (two consecutive wins, one win, one loss, and two consecutive losses).
(Procedure 2) Within the three groups divided in Procedure 1, the stores are arranged in the order of the previous total earned points.
(Procedure 3) Mix dummy stores in each group. If the number of stores in the group is an odd number, odd-numbered dummy stores are mixed, and if the number of stores is an even number, even-numbered dummy stores are mixed so that the total number is even. The dummy stores are inserted at random positions in the order rearranged in the procedure 2 so that the dummy stores are not lined up continuously.
(Procedure 4) In each group, two stores are combined in order from the top. When the same combination as the previous battle is completed, the store with the lower rank is replaced with the store with the lower one.

  When the battle combination is determined, the first stage of the team battle is performed (step S52). When the first stage is completed, the second stage of the team competition is performed (step S53). Team competitions are held over a one week span. For example, the first stage is held from Sunday to Saturday evening, and the second stage is held on Saturday night. In the first stage, any player can participate in, for example, six types of races a plurality of times during the period. On the other hand, the second stage is raced at a fixed time, and only representative horses for each store (team) can run. The victory or defeat of the team competition is determined by the total number of dream points (first points) earned in the first stage and the second stage. The dream point will be described later.

<First stage>
Next, the first stage will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of FIG. Although FIG. 8 shows only one game apparatus 10, in reality, the game apparatus in the opponent's store also performs the same processing. First, in the game apparatus 10 of each store participating in the team competition, six types of races (first competition) of the first stage to the sixth race of the first stage are executed (step S61). Each race is repeatedly held, for example, once a hour until the first stage period ends. The player selects a desired race from among the races that are accepting the start and starts his own racehorse. Each race has a different difficulty level. When the start acceptance is finished, the game apparatus 10 races. For details of the race processing in the game apparatus 10, refer to Japanese Patent No. 5590356.

  When the race is finished, the result (the order of arrival) is displayed on the display of the game apparatus 10, and an arrival order point (score point) is given according to the order of arrival of each player (step S62). The arrival order points vary depending on the difficulty level of the race, and are set as shown in FIG. 9, for example. In the example of FIG. 9, the fifth and sixth races have high difficulty levels, the third and fourth races are medium, and the first and second races have low difficulty levels. For example, if players X and Y participate in the first race from store A, and X is first and Y is third, the order of arrival points that store A acquires in the first race of that time is 120 points.

  Furthermore, bonus points are awarded to the first player in the race. The bonus points given here are a predetermined ratio (for example, 1%) of points (second points) that the opponent team has acquired so far in the race of that type. For example, in the first race held for the third time during the first stage period, when the player X of the store A reaches first place, the partner store B is in the store A at the first to third races. 1% of the points earned will be awarded as bonus points. The combined points and bonus points will be the points acquired in the first race (third point).

  Next, the game device 10 of each store transmits the point (third point) acquired by the store in the race to the team competition server 98 of the server 90 (step S63).

  The team competition server 98 obtains information on the acquired points (third points) from each store in the competition result information acquisition unit 902 each time a race is held, and adds the information for each type of race (step) S71). For example, if the first race is held five times in total, the total points (second point) of the first race (first match) are the first to fifth races (5 The total of the acquired points (third points) in each of the (matches).

  The dream point granting unit 903 determines a dream point (first point) based on the total acquired points (second point) of each race (first match), and determines the store that won the race. A dream point is given (step S72).

The giving of dream points will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 10 shows points (second points) acquired by the competing stores A and B in the first stage first to sixth races (1R to 6R), respectively. In addition, as a result of winning and losing, the store with the more points earned in each race is shown.

  The dream points are set such that, for each race, the higher the acquisition points (second points) of the winning team, the higher the dream points. As an example, as shown in FIG. 11, stepwise dream points (DP) are set in accordance with the order of acquired points.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the dream points given to the winning team of each race in accordance with the rules of FIG. As shown in FIG. 10, when the races are arranged in the order of the number of winning teams, the sixth, second, third, first, fifth and fourth are obtained. Therefore, the dream point is the highest in the sixth race and 100 points, and the fourth race is the lowest 10 points.

  The final dream point is determined after the end of the first stage, but the dream point granting unit 903 will determine each race based on the current results every time a race is held until the end of the first stage. Calculate the dream point. That is, for each race, a dream point is calculated on the assumption that the total of the currently acquired points is the final acquired point. The calculated dream points are given to the store with the most earned points at the present time. Further, the calculated dream point at the present time is supplied to the game devices 10 of both stores by the point display unit 905 together with the acquired points for each race at the present time.

  In each store, the current point acquisition status of both teams is displayed on the display of the game apparatus 10 (the display 14 of the main apparatus 30 and the video unit 64 of the satellite apparatus 60) (step S64). An example of the displayed image is shown in FIG.

  The dream point (first point) and the acquired points (second point, third point) in each race are managed as parameters in the server 90 and the game apparatus 10. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, the game apparatus 10 indicates the total (second point) of the points acquired up to the present time of both teams in each race by a graph and a numerical value. Also, the current dream point for each race is displayed as a numerical value. That is, for example, in the example of FIG. 13, since 1600 points of the store B currently leading in the sixth race is the highest point, the highest dream point 100DP is given to the store B. The point information display method is not limited to that shown in FIG. 13, and icons, symbols, titles, etc. may be used in addition to numbers and gauges, as long as the current point acquisition status of both teams can be expressed. Good.

When all the first stage races are completed, the team competition server 98 finally determines the team with the higher dream point as the first stage winning team in the superiority / inferiority determination unit 904 (step S73). In the present embodiment, the end condition of the first stage is the elapse of a predetermined holding period (for example, from Sunday to Saturday evening), but the end condition is not limited to this. For example, it may be ended when the total number of times each race is held reaches a predetermined number.
In the example of FIG. 12, store B (140 points) with a high total of dream points is the winning team. If the total of the points earned by both stores is finally the same for a certain race, the store that was taking the lead immediately before reaching the same score may be determined as the winning team. If the winning points of the two race teams are the same, the same dream point may be given to the winners of both races.

<Second stage>
When the first stage is completed, a second stage is held in the game apparatus 10 of each store. Unlike the first stage, the second stage is performed with multiple representative horses from each store running in the same race. For example, three races are held, and in each race, in addition to representative horses (for example, five horses) selected from both stores, four assistant horses (CPU horses) controlled by the game apparatus 10 start running. The helper ginseng horse is a CPU horse that entered one of the races in the first stage, and on the second stage, enter the race as the horse of the store that won the race in which the assistant horse entered the first stage. Also good. Such a rule setting is advantageous in the second stage because a store with many races won in the first stage can use many helper horses.

  In the second stage, each race is given a dream point according to the order of arrival. For example, stepwise values such as 50 points for 1st place and 30 points for 2nd place are set and added as points of the team to which each horse belongs.

  When the second stage is completed, the dream points acquired by both teams in the first stage and the second stage are added together in the server 90, and the store with the higher point becomes the winning team of this team competition.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the server 90 determines each of the first stage races (first battle) of the two teams to compete based on the acquired points (second points) for each race. The race dream point (first point) was determined and given to the winning team of the race. Then, based on the total number of dream points awarded for each race, both teams are determined to win or lose. In this way, it is not determined simply by the total number of points earned in each race against the team, but dream points adjusted between races are given in consideration of the content of each race (size of earned points). Since winning or losing is determined by the sum of dream points, it is possible to have a relationship between races. In other words, when competing with only points gained, it is advantageous to enter the higher order in more races, but in this embodiment, it is advantageous to win any one race with higher earned points. possible.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 12, in terms of the number of race wins, store A has 4 races, store B has 2 races, and store A has won, but store B has won in terms of the total number of dream points. This is because store B has won a high score in the sixth race and thus has obtained a large dream point in the sixth race alone. In this way, at each store, it is possible to create a strategy such as which race it is advantageous to focus on, and it is possible to provide fun unique to team battles.

  Further, the dream point is a point having a predetermined step value, and can be adjusted so that there is no point difference that cannot be recovered at the second stage at the end of the first stage. If such an adjustment is made, the result of winning or losing is not known until the end of the second stage, and it is possible to perform a heated team battle until the end.

  In addition, each race (first match) is performed a plurality of times during the first stage, and the acquisition points (third points) in each match (second match) are determined according to the order of arrival. Includes grade points and bonus points. For example, the bonus point is given when the first place is reached in each battle, and the point is given according to the second point that the opponent team has acquired so far in the race. In this way, the points that can be earned dynamically change as the first stage progresses, so there is a pleasure to make a strategy to determine which race to earn more points. Also, the grade points that are determined according to the order of arrival vary depending on the difficulty set for each race, so take into consideration various factors such as the ability of your own racehorse and the point acquisition status of the opponent team. You need to decide which race to play, and make the game more complex and interesting.

  In addition, during the first stage, the second points that both teams have acquired so far in each race and the dream points calculated based on the second points at the current time are given to the game device 10 of each store. Since it is displayed, each team can check the current point situation of the opponent team, and based on this, it can make a strategy such as deciding the race to participate in the future.

  In the present embodiment, the two stores are competing for a team that competes for points via the server 90. However, the present invention can also be applied to a case where team devices compete in the same store. In this case, the function of the server 90 may be provided in the store. Further, in order to reduce the load on the server, a part of the functions of the team battle server 98 (team battle process) in the server 90 may be processed by any game device or other game devices that battle each other. good. In this case, it is desirable to allocate to the game device that is not performing the game process and is in the advertising process, and the team battle server 98 selects the game device for performing the team battle process in addition to the matching process. Gather information. The present invention can also be applied to a case where a battle is performed against an imaginary team controlled by the game device. If it is a competitive game against such an imaginary team, it is not a communication system composed of game devices and servers in each store as in this embodiment, but is processed alone without communication with other devices. It can also be realized with a home game machine or the like. In this case, the home game machine has the functions of the server 90 and the game apparatus 10 of the present embodiment.
