Also, when an attack is performed by three or more characters, if the time difference between the respective attacks is within 0.2 seconds, the combo attack is continued. For example, if five characters attack enemy characters in turn with a time difference of 0.2 seconds or less, the special effect is activated for five combo attacks, and so great effects can be expected.

  In addition, the attribute of the several character which performs an attack (action) in a competitive game may be set as conditions for combo attack activation. For example, in the combo attack with combo ID: 2 in FIG. 9, an activation condition is that two or more characters having any of fire, water, and wind attributes attack with a time difference of 0.5 seconds or less.

<< Configuration of Player Terminal 20 >>
FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the player terminal 20. As shown in FIG. The player terminal 20 is an information processing device (for example, a tablet terminal, a mobile phone terminal, a smartphone, etc.) that the player can possess and use.

<< Operation of game system 1 >>
FIG. 11 is a flowchart for explaining various processes when playing a battle game in the game system 1.

  First, the player operates the player terminal 20 to make a request to start the battle game (S101). When the server device 10 receives a battle game start request from the player via the player terminal 20, various processes for executing the battle game are started.

  Next, the control unit 11 accesses character information stored in the storage unit 12 to obtain information on enemy characters, and accesses deck information in the player information to participate in a battle game. The information about the battle deck which consists of the player character of is acquired (S102).

  Next, the screen data generation unit 112 generates game screen data of the battle game based on the deck information and the enemy character information acquired in S102, and causes the player terminal 20 to display the game screen data (S103).

FIG. 12 is a view showing an example of the game screen 50 of the competitive game. The game screen 50 of the competition game in the present embodiment has a character display area 51 for displaying the image and arrangement of each character, and an operation area 52 for the player to perform an operation instruction. In the character display area 51, images of enemy characters and images of a plurality of player characters included in the player's battle deck are displayed. In the operation area 52, a plurality of character operation buttons are arranged. The “character operation button” is provided in association with each of a plurality of player characters, and the player selects a predetermined character operation button and inputs an operation instruction (for example, by touching the character operation button). A character associated with the character operation button can be selected and operated. That is, the “character operation button” is a “selection target” for causing the player to select a desired character and issue an operation instruction. In the example of FIG. 12, five character operation buttons 52A to 52E are arranged respectively corresponding to five characters participating in the competition game. The arrangement of the character operation buttons 52A to 52E is determined based on, for example, “arrangement” information in the deck information (see FIG. 8).
In the character operation button, an image of a character (control target) associated with the character operation button, or information of a standby time or a parameter set for the character may be displayed. If such information is displayed on the character operation button, the player can use it as a reference when deciding the order of character selection and the like.

  Next, returning to FIG. 11, the player terminal 20 determines whether or not there is an input from the player to the character operation button (S104). Then, if there is no input (S104: NO), it waits until there is an input from the player. At this time, a message prompting the player to input may be displayed on the game screen. If there is an input from the player (S104: YES), the process proceeds to S105.

  Next, when there is an input from the player to the character operation button, the reception unit 111B performs a reception process for receiving an input of an operation instruction from the player (S105). As shown in the example of FIG. 12, a plurality of character operation buttons to be selected are arranged on the game screen 50 of the battle game of the present embodiment. The player can operate the player character in various patterns by changing the order and timing of selecting and instructing the plurality of character operation buttons.

  In the present embodiment, at the timing when the player instructs (touches) the position where the character operation button is arranged on the game screen, the operation input to the character associated with the character operation button is accepted. Then, by sequentially indicating (touching) the positions of the plurality of character operation buttons, selection operation inputs for the characters are received in order in association with the respective character operation buttons. At that time, the player can slide the designated position with respect to the plurality of character operation buttons displayed on the game screen, thereby performing selection operation input for the plurality of characters as a series of operations. In other words, when the movement of the designated position on the game screen is maintained by the operation of the player, the selection operation input is accepted in order from the selection target whose timing at which the designated position first reaches first is earlier.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for describing a specific operation when the player performs an input operation of selecting a character. In FIG. 13, the player operates the character operation button 52A (character A), the character operation button 52B (character B), the character operation button 52C (character C), the character operation button 52D (character D), the character operation button 52E (character E) It shows about the example in the case of performing selection in order of. The player first designates (touches) the position of the character operation button 52A. Thereby, the operation input is accepted as that the character A associated with the character selection button 52A is selected first. Subsequently, the designated position is slid to the position of the character operation button 52B disposed to the right of the character operation button 52A. As a result, the operation input is accepted as the character B is selected second. In this manner, by continuing the slide movement of the designated position up to the position of the character operation button 52E (maintaining the movement of the designated position), selection for the character is made in the order in which the designated position reaches the position of the predetermined character operation button. Operation input is accepted. Therefore, the player can efficiently issue the operation instruction only by performing the operation of sliding the designated position once.

  FIGS. 14 and 15 are diagrams for explaining the specific operation when the player performs a character selection operation, and the player operates the character operation button 52B (character B), the character operation button 52C (character C), the character An example of the case where selection is performed in the order of the operation button 52D (character D), the character operation button 52E (character E), and the character operation button 52A (character A) is shown. In FIG. 14, the player first designates the position of the character operation button 52B, and then slides the designated position to the position of the character operation button 52E, thereby selecting the character B to the character E in order. Thereafter, the moving direction of the designated position is reversed, and the designated position is slid from the position of the character operating button 52E to the position of the character operating button 52A. At this time, the designated position passes through the positions of the character operation buttons 52D, 52C, and 52B, but the selection operation input has already been received at the timing when the designated position first reaches these character operation buttons. The selection operation input can not be received at the timing when the designated position has arrived after the third time. Therefore, the player can efficiently issue the operation instruction only by sliding the indicated position back and forth.

  Further, in the reception process of the present embodiment, regardless of whether the designated position is located outside the operation area 52, the designated position is first placed at the position of the character operation button (selection target) disposed in the operation area 52. At the arrival timing, the selection operation input of the character operation button is accepted. That is, when the player slides the designated position, an area other than the operation area 52 may be passed. In FIG. 15, the player slides the designated position to sequentially select the character control button 52B to the character control button 52E, and then moves the designated position out of the control area 52 and passes through the character display area 51. The position of the character operation button 52A is reached. Also in this case, the character selection operation input is accepted in the order in which the designated position first arrived.

  In the specific operation described above, an example in which the player selects all the character operation buttons arranged in the operation area 52 (when selecting all characters) has been described, but a part of the character operation buttons is selected. You may (select some characters). For example, when the game screen 50 shown in FIG. 13 is displayed, the player first specifies the position of the character operation button 52A, and then slides the specified position to the position of the character operation button 52C and then touches up. Character A to character C are selected in order. At this time, the selection of the character is decided when the designated position reaches the character operation button, and the selection operation input to the character is accepted. Other than this, the selection of the character may be confirmed and the selection operation input to the character may be accepted when the designated position is away from the character operation button. As described above, the player can efficiently issue an operation instruction to a part of characters by performing the touch-up operation only after sliding the designated position once.

  Furthermore, after the touch-up, operation instructions may be continuously issued to the remaining two characters. For example, after the player first designates the position of the character operation button 52D, the character D and the character E may be selected in order by sliding the designated position to the position of the character operation button 52E and then performing touch-up. . For example, the character D and the character E may be individually selected by the player tapping the character operation button 52D and the character operation button 52E, respectively. In this manner, the player can cause attack and skill activation efficiently for each character by sliding the designated position or performing a tap operation.

  By combining these operations, the player can select characters in a desired order and issue an operation instruction while sliding the designated position.

  Next, referring back to FIG. 11, the counting unit 111C performs a counting process to start counting the waiting time associated with each of the selected characters in the order in which the selection operation input is received (S106). For example, when an operation input for the character A is received in S105, the counting unit 111C starts counting the waiting time for the character A at the timing when the operation input is received.

  Next, when the waiting time associated with each character has elapsed, the action control unit 111D performs an action control process to control the action associated with each character (S107). For example, when the counting of the waiting time for character A is started in S106, the action control unit 111D detects that the character A has a waiting time of 3 seconds (see FIG. 4). Control to make them perform predetermined actions. In the battle game of the present embodiment, an action is performed in which each character attacks an enemy character based on the “number of attacks” associated with each character. For example, since the action “five times of attacks” is associated with the character A (see FIG. 4), the character A performs five consecutive attacks against the enemy character when the waiting time has elapsed. .

  In addition, the control may be performed to move the selected character to a position where the enemy character is displayed on the game screen after the operation input to the character is received until the standby time elapses. . That is, the time required for the character to move to the attack target and start the attack may be treated as "waiting time". By performing such an effect, it appears that each character is taking action every moment in the competition game, so it is possible to enhance the player's interest.

  Next, the special effect generating unit 111E determines whether a predetermined condition is satisfied (S108). Here, the predetermined condition is that a time difference from when an action (attack) of a certain character is performed first to when an action (attack) of another character is performed later is within a predetermined time. That is, it is determined whether the conditions for the combo attack activation described in FIG. 8 are satisfied. As a result of the determination, if the predetermined condition is not satisfied (S108: NO), the process proceeds to S110, and if the predetermined condition is satisfied (S108: YES), the process proceeds to S109.

  Next, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the special effect generating unit 111E generates a special effect while the competition game is in progress (S109). In the present embodiment, the combo attack is activated when the above-mentioned combo attack activation condition is satisfied. For example, in FIG. 13, it is assumed that the selection operation input of character B is accepted secondly one second after the selection operation input of character A is accepted first. In this case, the character A starts attacking the enemy character at a timing when 3 seconds which is the waiting time has elapsed. Similarly, character B starts attacking the enemy character at a timing when 2 seconds which is the waiting time has elapsed. Here, since the waiting time of character B starts counting one second after the waiting time of character A starts counting, the attack start timing of character A (3 seconds) and the attack start timing of character B (1 second + 2 seconds) simultaneously. That is, the time difference between the attack of character A (action) and the attack of character B (action) is within 0.2 seconds. Therefore, since the condition of combo ID: 1 in FIG. 9 is satisfied, a “special effect” that doubles the offensive power of character A and character B is generated. If a plurality of conditions are satisfied at the same time, a special effect with the highest priority may be generated based on a preset priority, or a plurality of special effects may be generated simultaneously. Also good.

  In addition, since the “number of attacks” is set for each character, the special effect generation unit 111E is configured to set the number of attacks (that is, the number of actions) each time the character performs a series of attacks. It is determined whether the time difference from the attack by the next character is within a predetermined time. For example, in the above-mentioned example, character A, whose selection operation input is first received, attacks five consecutive times after the elapse of the waiting time (2 seconds), but for each of the five consecutive attacks, the next character The time difference with the attack by (character B in the above example) is determined. Generally, the more frequently attacked characters, the longer the time from the start of an attack to the end of the attack, and the higher the probability that the time difference with attacks by other characters will be within a predetermined time. That is, the probability that the special effect occurs is high. Therefore, the player determines the arrangement of each character on the game screen (that is, the setting of the battle deck) and the order and timing of performing the operation input, while sufficiently considering the waiting time and the number of attacks of each character. It will be possible to advance the match game more advantageously.

  Next, the battle processing unit 111A determines the outcome of the battle (S110). If the total value of attacks by the player character is equal to or greater than the physical strength value of the enemy character, then the player wins the battle. Conversely, if the total attack value by the player character is smaller than the enemy character's physical strength value, the enemy character wins. In addition, the determination method of victory or defeat is not this limitation.

  As described above, in the game system 1 according to the present embodiment, the player can perform an operation instruction on a plurality of characters while sliding the designated position, so that the operation can be performed efficiently. In addition, since it becomes possible to generate special effects under predetermined conditions by changing the order and timing of giving instructions to a plurality of characters, it is possible to make the battle game more interesting.

=== Other Embodiments ===
The above embodiments are for the purpose of facilitating the understanding of the present invention, and are not for the purpose of limiting the present invention. The present invention can be modified or improved without departing from the gist thereof, and the present invention also includes the equivalents thereof. In particular, the embodiments described below are also included in the present invention.

<About special effects>
In the above embodiment, as a special effect when a predetermined condition is satisfied in the competition game, an example is described in which a combo attack is activated in the competition game and an effect such as an increase in attack power occurs. An effect may be generated. For example, the special effect may be such that a privilege is given based on the order in which the selection operation input for a plurality of characters is accepted.

  In this case, the special effect generation unit 111E increases the benefit to be given to the character (the character to be controlled) selected by the player's selection operation, as the order of reception of the selection operation input is later. Specifically, among the plurality of characters constituting the battle deck of the player, more recovery items, experience points, and the like are given to the character for which the selection operation input was last received at the time of the battle game than the other characters. The special effect generating unit 111E stores the item to be given as a special effect and the experience value in the storage unit 12 in association with the character ID of the owned character information.

  Also, the contents of the special effect may be changed based on the game progress information of the player. For example, as the player's ranking at the current time and the number of logins to the game increase, valuable items may be provided, or the effect (for example, the aggressivity) at the time of performing a combo attack may be increased.

<About setting of waiting time and number of attacks>
In the above embodiment, the waiting time and the number of attacks are set as the character information in association with each character, but the setting values of the waiting time and the number of attacks may be changed. For example, the higher the character level, the greater the number of attacks, or the shorter the waiting time. In this way, an effect such as a combo attack being activated more easily as the character level is raised can be a trigger for the player to develop the character, and the player's interest can be further enhanced.

  In addition, when the character is set as the leader in the deck, the waiting time and the number of attacks change, or the waiting time and the number of attacks are corrected according to the character rarity and the type of skill set for the character. You may do so. In this way, the competitive game can be advanced advantageously by the way of formation of the competitive deck, so that the strategic nature of the competitive game can be enhanced and the player's interest can be enhanced.
