It is a schematic diagram which shows the outline of the example of a game implement | achieved by the game program which concerns on this Embodiment, (a) shows that a player catches a fish by operating a fishing interface, (b) is the said figure. This indicates that the player releases the fish that has been caught to the fishing ground, and (c) indicates that the fish that have been released to the fishing ground grow. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a “fishing interface” operated by the player to catch a fish. It is a schematic diagram which shows an example of a mode that the fishing ground is managed by the group which consists of several players. It is a flowchart which shows an example of the process which the said portable terminal performs. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating a configuration of a game system including the portable terminal and a server device according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

  First, a configuration in which the computer according to one embodiment of the present invention functions as a mobile terminal (client device) and the game program according to one embodiment of the present invention is executed on the mobile terminal as a so-called native application (native game) Will be described in the first embodiment (Embodiment 1) with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

  Next, the computer according to one embodiment of the present invention functions as a server device, and the game program according to one embodiment of the present invention is a so-called web application (web game), and part or all of the game program is stored in the server device. A configuration that is executed and a result of the executed process is returned to the portable terminal will be described in a second embodiment (Embodiment 2) with reference to FIG.

[Embodiment 1]
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

(Outline of the game)
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing an outline of a game example realized by the game program according to the present embodiment. 2A shows that the player fishes the fish 1 by operating the fishing interface, FIG. 2B shows that the player releases the fish 1 that the fish catches to the fishing place 2, and FIG. ) Indicates that the fish 1 released to the fishing place 2 grows. The game program can implement, for example, a fishing game in which a user can experience fishing. However, the fishing game is merely an example of a game realized by the game program in order to explain the game program according to the present invention, and the game program includes, for example, a company management game and a farm. Various games such as a management game and a character breeding game can be further realized.

  As illustrated in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the player provides input information via a “fishing interface” (to be described in detail later with reference to FIG. 3) (for example, a touch operation is performed). By doing so, the fish (game medium) 1 can be caught from outside (the sea, a river, a fishing ground managed by another player, etc.), and the caught fish 1 can be released to a “fishing ground” managed by the player. .

  As illustrated in FIG. 2 (c), the fish 1 caught has a game progression (for example, elapse of time in the real world, elapse of time in the game, clear of a predetermined quest, progress of a predetermined quest, The fish 1 grows in the fishing ground 2 with the growth of the player (for example, the fish 1 grows or breeds). The fish 1 released to the fishing spot 2 may be caught by another player who plays the game.

  Thus, the fishing game realized by the game program is different from the conventional game in which the state in the game does not change unless the player takes an active action such as "fishing a fish". Simply releasing the fish 1 caught by the player to the fishing place 2 (even if the player does not take an active action) causes a change in the state in the game as the caught fish 1 grows. Therefore, the game program can realize a highly entertaining game that does not make the player tired.

  Further, the fish 1 itself that grows by being released to the fishing place 2 is a target to be acquired by another player. In other words, each player can catch the fish 1 being bred by another player and acquire the fish 1 with respect to each other. Therefore, the game realized by the above-mentioned game program is different from the conventional game in which each player plays independently, and the interaction with other players is poor. Mutual exchange occurs. That is, the game program can promote exchange between a plurality of players.

(Configuration of the mobile terminal 100)
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a main configuration of the mobile terminal 100. The mobile terminal (computer) 100 is an information processing device capable of executing a game program including a process described below. The specific device is not limited to a mobile terminal as long as it is a device that can execute the process, and is, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a home game machine, a mobile phone, a personal computer, and other electronic devices. Is also good. The game program includes a display (display unit), an input surface capable of detecting a touch input, a memory, and one or a plurality of processors capable of executing one or a plurality of programs stored in the memory. In a multifunction device (for example, a smartphone or the like) including

  As illustrated in FIG. 1, the mobile terminal 100 includes a control unit 10 (input information acquisition unit 11, game content acquisition unit 12, information storage unit 13, information update unit 14, display information output unit 15, play history storage unit). 16, a growth notification unit 17, a privilege giving unit 18), a communication unit 20 (the reception unit 21, the transmission unit 22), an input unit 40 (the input surface 41, the input control unit 42), and a display unit 50.

  The control unit 10 comprehensively controls various functions of the mobile terminal 100. The control unit 10 includes an input information acquisition unit 11, a game content acquisition unit 12, an information storage unit 13, an information update unit 14, a display information output unit 15, a play history storage unit 16, a growth notification unit 17, and a privilege provision unit 18. Including.

  The input information obtaining unit (input information obtaining function) 11 obtains the coordinate information 5b input by the player from the input control unit 42, and inputs information 5g provided by the player to the operation interface displayed on the game screen. Is specified based on the coordinate information 5b. The input information acquisition unit 11 outputs the input information 5g to the game content acquisition unit 12 and the play history storage unit 16.

  The game content acquisition unit (game content acquisition function) 12 acquires (fishes up) a fish (game content) 1 that is intended to be acquired by the player according to the input information 5g. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a “fishing interface” (a game medium acquisition interface) operated by the player to catch the fish 1. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the display information output unit 15 can output, to the display unit 50, display information 5e for displaying the game screen including the fishing interface on the display unit 50. In addition, the display information output unit 15 can output display information 5e for displaying the fish 1 on the display unit 50 to the display unit 50 so that the fish 1 that has eaten the bait is rampant in the eaten state. . Thus, the game program can give the player a sense of realism of fishing.

  For example, when the input information 5g is input from the input information acquisition unit 11 at the timing when the fish 1 rampaging in the game screen is displayed in the center of the concentric circle included in the fishing interface (the player inputs the input surface 41). ), The game content acquisition unit 12 decreases the hit points of the fish 1 (indicated by the color bar displayed at the top of the game screen). If the hit point of the fish 1 can be reduced to a predetermined value or less (for example, zero) by the player touching in a timely manner, the game medium acquisition unit 12 determines that the player has caught the fish 1 Then, the game content information 5c relating to the fish 1 is acquired from the server device 200. This allows the game program to make the player simulate fishing. The game content acquisition unit 12 outputs the game content information 5c to the information storage unit 13 and the display information output unit 15.

  In addition, the game medium acquisition unit 12 can acquire (fish up) the fish 1 from (a) a public fishing place (for example, the sea, a river, a pond, a swamp, etc.), and (b) a private fishing place (for example, The fish 1 can also be obtained from a fishing spot managed by another player. In addition, the game medium acquisition unit 12 can make the difficulty of catching the fish 1 different according to the type of fishing place. For example, the game medium acquisition unit 12 may (a) make the concentric circles larger / smaller at the sea fishing ground to make it easier / less difficult to get the timing, or (b) set the hit point of the fish 1 at the fishing ground of another player. It is possible to increase / decrease the probability of the fish 1 releasing the bait easily / reducedly or (c) at the fishing ground of the pond. This allows the game program to freely adjust the difficulty of the game, thereby increasing the variations of the game.

  The information storage unit (information storage function) 13 stores predetermined game medium information 5c (information on game media) related to the fish 1 so that the player can manage the fish 1 via the management interface. The game medium information 5c relating to the fish 1 acquired by the player is newly stored in the device.

  In the present embodiment, the predetermined storage device is installed in server device 200 communicably connected to portable terminal 100 via a predetermined network (for example, the Internet). Accordingly, (1) the information storage unit 13 transmits the game content information 5c input from the game content acquisition unit 12 from the transmission unit 22 to the server device 200, and (2) the server device 200 receives the received game content information 5c. The game content information 5c is stored in the predetermined storage device (cloud storage) in association with a player identifier capable of uniquely identifying the player. Thus, the game program can centrally manage the game medium information 5c received from the mobile terminal 100 operated by each player.

  On the other hand, the mobile terminal 100 may include the predetermined storage device (local storage), and the information storage unit 13 may store the game medium information 5c in the predetermined storage device. Accordingly, the game program can make the player enjoy the game even when the mobile terminal 100 is in an environment where communication with an external device is not possible. In the following description, only an example in which the game program stores arbitrary information in the cloud storage will be described. However, it goes without saying that the arbitrary information may be stored in the local storage.

  Further, in a game realized by the game program according to the present embodiment, since the player can manage at least one fishing spot 2, the information storage unit stores fishing spot information (game content management information) relating to the fishing spot 2. For example, the game medium information 5c may be associated with a player identifier capable of identifying a player who manages the fishing spot 2) and stored in the predetermined storage device.

  The information updating unit (information updating function) 14 is stored in the predetermined storage device so that the fish 1 managed by the player (the fish 1 released to the fishing ground 2) grows as the game progresses. The game media information 5c relating to the fish 1 is updated. Specifically, the information updating unit 14 generates update information 5d indicating that the fish 1 has grown with time in the game, and transmits the update information 5d to the server device 200 from the transmission unit 22. This causes the server device 200 to update the game content information 5c.

  The information updating unit 14 may, for example, (a) increase the size of the fish 1 by one centimeter every 10 days in the game, or (b) increase the size of the fish 1 by one month each time in the game. By breeding (for example, when the fish 1 lays eggs and the eggs hatch, small fish 1a, small fish 1b, and small fish 1c are newly generated, see FIG. 2C). , The fish 1 can be grown. That is, "the fish 1 grows with the progress of the game" means that (a) the fish 1 displayed on the game screen increases with the progress of the game, and (b) the game screen And (c) that the fish 1 changes in other manners.

  As described above, the game program merely releases the fish 1 caught by the player to the fishing spot 2 (even if the player does not take any active action), and the fish 1 caught in the game grows and grows. The state changes. Therefore, the game program allows the player to enjoy the game slowly (passively). Further, the above-mentioned game program can give not only the player's sense of superiority of "acquiring and owning a fish / item not owned by another person" but also the sense of accomplishment that "the fish grew". Therefore, the motivation of the player to play the game can be increased.

  In the present embodiment, (a) the information updating unit 14 transmits update information 5d including information for updating predetermined information to the server device 200, so that the server device 200 receives the predetermined information. A configuration for updating information will be described as an example. (B) The information updating unit 14 updates the predetermined information, and transmits the updated information to the server device 200. The configuration may be such that the information is stored in the cloud storage, or (c) the information updating unit 14 updates the predetermined information and stores the updated information in the local storage.

  Further, the information updating unit 14 can make the growth of the fish 1 different depending on a mode in which the fish 1 is caught from the outside (the sea, a river, a fishing place managed by another player, or the like). For example, the longer the time required to catch the fish, the greater the damage given to the fish 1. Therefore, the information updating unit 14 (a) slows down the growth of the fish 1 or (b) breeds the fish 1. The number may be reduced. Alternatively, when the damage is extremely large (for example, when the damage exceeds a predetermined threshold), the game program may prevent the fish 1 from being moved to the fishing spot 2. Thereby, the game program can make the player simulate more realistic fishing. The information update section 14 outputs the update information 5d to the transmission section 22, the growth notification section 17, and the privilege provision section 18.

  The display information output unit (display information output function) 15 outputs display information 5e for displaying a game screen on the display unit 50 to the display unit 50 so that the grown fish 1 can be obtained by another player. . As outlined above with reference to FIGS. 2A to 2C, the fish 1 that the player has obtained from the outside (the sea, the river, the fishing ground of another player) is released to the fishing ground 2 that is managed by the player. Then, the fish 1 grows in the fishing place 2. Then, the fish 1 itself grown in the fishing place 2 is a target to be acquired by another player. The display information output unit 15 is configured to, for example, (a) a player identifier capable of uniquely identifying a player and the fishing ground 2 associated with the player identifier so that the grown fish 1 can be obtained by another player. From the server device 200, and "lists which player manages which fishing place" can be displayed in a listable manner, or (b) the game medium information 5c associated with the fishing place information is displayed on the server device 200. Further, it is possible to further acquire from 200 and display “what kind of fish is in which fishing place” in a listable manner. Thereby, mutual interaction occurs with the other players via the growing fish 1, and thus the game program can realize exchange between a plurality of players.

  In addition, the display information output unit 15 can further output list display information 5f that allows the player to list the fish 1 managed by the player to the display unit 50. Accordingly, the game program can make the player grasp the fish 1 growing at the fishing spot 2 at a glance. Further, the display information output unit 15 can further output display information 5e for operably displaying various user interfaces (for example, a fishing interface, a management interface, and the like). In particular, the display information output unit 15 can further output interface display information for operably displaying a management interface that enables the fish 1 to be managed by the player. This allows the game program to allow the player to easily manage the fish 1.

  It should be noted that the player can give a name to each of the growing fish 1. Specifically, (1) the input information obtaining unit 11 obtains input information 5g indicating the name (character, number, symbol, etc.) of the fish 1 specified by the player, and (2) the information updating unit 14 By generating update information 5d indicating that the name of the fish 1 has been updated, and transmitting the update information 5d to the server device 200 via the transmission unit 22, the game medium information 5c is transmitted to the server device 200. Let me update. In this case, the display information output unit 15 can display the name in a listable manner by including information on the name of the fish 1 (included in the game medium information 5c) in the list display information 5f. Accordingly, the game program can make the player have an attachment to the fish 1, so that the player's enthusiasm for the game can be aroused.

  The play history storage unit (play history storage function) 16 sequentially stores the play history of the game by the player in the predetermined storage device. Specifically, every time the input information 5g is input from the input information acquisition unit 11, the play history storage unit 16 transmits the input information 5g from the transmission unit 22 to the server device 200. Each time the server device 200 receives the input information 5g from the mobile terminal 100, the server device 200 sequentially stores the input information in the predetermined storage device in association with a player identifier capable of uniquely identifying the player. The play history of the player is stored in the predetermined storage device.

  In this case, the information updating unit 14 refers to the play history, and stores the fish 1 managed by the player in the predetermined storage device such that the fish 1 managed by the player grows during a period in which the player is not playing the game. The stored game medium information 5c relating to the fish 1 can be updated. For example, if the player (1) feeds the fish 1 released to the fishing place 2, (2) further releases another fish 1 that can be paired with the fish 1, and (3) further feeds, the information is updated. The unit 14 increases the size of the fish 1 by 1 cm by the above (1), increases the size of the small fish 1a to the fishing place 2 by the above (2), and obtains the above The size of the fish 1 and the small fish 1a can be increased by 1 cm.

  In other words, the above-mentioned game program realizes a highly entertaining game that does not make the player tired, because the state in the game is changed by growing the fish 1 caught, even if the player does not take an active action. can do.

  The growth notification unit (growth notification function) 17 notifies the player of the growth of the fish 1. For example, the growth notification unit 17 displays (a) a notification such as “fish grew” on the display unit 50, or (b) sounds from a speaker (not shown in FIG. 1) provided in the mobile terminal 100. , Or (c) vibrating the mobile terminal 100, the player can be notified of the growth of the fish 1 (notified by push). Thus, the game program can call the player back to the game after the player has finished playing the game. When the update information 5d indicating that the fish 1 has grown is input from the information update unit 14, the growth notification unit 17 outputs the notification information 5h indicating the notification to the display information output unit 15.

  The privilege granting unit (privilege granting function) 18 grants a predetermined privilege to a player who manages the fish 1 and / or a group to which the player belongs according to the growth of the fish 1. For example, when the update information 5d is input from the information update unit 14, the privilege granting unit 18 stores the privilege information 5i relating to the predetermined privilege in a player identifier capable of uniquely identifying the player, and / or uniquely identifies the group. The predetermined privilege is given to the player and / or the group by storing in the predetermined storage device in association with the group identifier that can be identified. Here, the predetermined privilege includes parameters set for the fish 1, such as (a) that the fish 1 grows and breeds further, and (b) the fish 1 becomes stronger (for example, the number of hit points increases). To improve), (c) to be awarded points, and / or (d) to be provided with character items that can be used in the game or other games. Thus, the game program can evocate the player's enthusiasm for the game.

  In addition, information (privilege information 5i) related to the privilege granted by the privilege granting unit 18 may be uploaded to the server device 200. Alternatively, the server device 200 includes the privilege providing unit 18, the mobile terminal 100 uploads the update information 5d to the server device 200, and the privilege providing unit 18 generates the privilege information 5i on the server device 200. May be stored in a predetermined storage device. As described above, by unifying various information (for example, privilege information 5i) in the server device 200, the server device 200 ranks each player according to, for example, (a) the amount of privilege given to the player. Information can be presented, or (b) a player who has the largest number of fishes 1 managed at the fishing spot 2 can be awarded. Therefore, the mobile terminal 100 and the server device 200 can realize a highly entertaining game.

  The input unit 40 receives a touch operation by the player. In the present embodiment, the input unit 40 may be, for example, a touch panel that can detect the touch operation. The input unit 40 includes an input surface 41 and an input control unit 42. In addition, the method of giving an input to the mobile terminal 100 is not limited to the touch operation using the touch panel (for example, the input may be given by pressing a predetermined input key).

  The input surface 41 is a device (for example, a touch surface included in the touch panel) that can detect a position designated by a touch operation by the player. The input surface 41 outputs a touch signal 5a including information corresponding to the specified position to the input control unit 42.

  Based on the touch signal 5a input from the input surface 41, the input control unit 42 generates coordinate information 5b that can specify the position specified by the player and includes information on the position on the input surface 41.

  The communication unit 20 communicates with the outside via a communication network according to a predetermined communication method. It is only necessary to provide an essential function for realizing communication with an external device (for example, the server device 200), and a communication line, a communication method, a communication medium, and the like are not limited. The communication unit 20 can be configured by a device such as an Ethernet (registered trademark) adapter. The communication unit 20 can use a communication method or a communication medium such as, for example, IEEE 802.11 wireless communication, Bluetooth (registered trademark), or the like. The communication unit 20 includes a reception unit 21 and a transmission unit 22.

  The receiving unit 21 receives the game content information 5c from the server device 200.

  The transmission unit 22 transmits, to the server device 200, the game content information 5c input from the information storage unit 13, the update information 5d input from the information update unit 14, and the input information 5g input from the play history storage unit 16. .

  The display unit 50 is a device that displays a game screen. In the present embodiment, display unit 50 may be a liquid crystal display. In FIG. 1, the input unit 40 and the display unit 50 are separately illustrated in order to clearly show the functions of the input unit 40 and the display unit 50. However, for example, when the input unit 40 is a touch panel and the display unit 50 is a liquid crystal display, it is preferable that both are integrally configured.

(Setting of fishing place)
The player can freely set his / her own fishing place 2. For example, the player can set a vacant lot that originally existed in the game field (for example, a pond or a lake that is not owned by any player) as his or her own fishing spot 2. Specifically, (1) the input information acquiring unit 11 acquires input information 5g indicating a position on the game field designated by the player, and (2) the information updating unit 14 places the fishing ground 2 at the position. The fishing place information indicating the setting is generated, and the transmitting part 22 transmits the fishing place information to the server device 200. Then, (3) the server device 200 stores the fishing place information in a predetermined storage device in association with the player identifier. The game program executes the information processing of (1) to (3) so that the player can set his / her own fishing spot 2. Accordingly, the game program can make the player have an attachment to the fishing spot 2 and thus can arouse the player's enthusiasm for the game.

  The game program can configure the game field to reflect the real world geography. In this case, the player can set his or her fishing ground 2 at a position in the game field corresponding to the position of the player in the real world (position information obtained from the GPS provided in the mobile terminal 100). For example, the player can set a lake existing in the real world as his / her own fishing place 2. As described above, since the player can freely set his or her own fishing spot 2, the game program can evoke the player's enthusiasm for the game.

  The game program reflects (a) the landscape of the fishing spot 2, (b) the climate, (c) vegetation, and (d) by reflecting the geographical characteristics of the game field on the fishing spot 2 set by the player. ) Water quality (seawater, freshwater, brackish water, clear water, turbid water, etc.) and / or (e) the type of fish 1 that can be raised can be varied. For example, when the player sets the fishing spot 2 by specifying a vacant lot existing at the foot of the mountain, the information updating unit 14 displays the mountain in the background of the fishing spot 2 on the game screen displaying the fishing spot 2. Thus, the fishing place information can be generated. Alternatively, the information updating unit 14 can generate the update information 5d such that a specific fish grows only at a fishing place provided on a land having a warm climate (for this reason, different types of fish can be caught by the fishing place). ). As described above, the game program allows the player to create a variety of fishing spots.

(Management of fishing spots)
The player may be required to maintain (manage) the fishing ground 2. For example, the player may feed the fish 1 released to the fishing ground 2, (b) clean the fishing ground 2, (c) refill the water in the fishing ground 2, (d) keep the water temperature constant, etc. It is required to continuously perform various maintenances displayed on the management interface. Specifically, (1) the input information obtaining unit 11 obtains, via the management interface, input information 5g indicating that the maintenance specified by the player is to be performed, and (2) the information updating unit 14 By generating update information 5d indicating that the fishing ground 2 has been maintained, and transmitting the update information 5d from the transmission unit 22 to the server device 200, the server device 200 updates the fishing ground information on the fishing ground 2 concerned.

  The growth of the fish 1 (change of the game content) may be different depending on the maintenance. For example, the information updating unit 14 can generate the update information 5d so that the fish 1 grows faster at the fishing ground 2 that is kept clean by frequent cleaning as compared with the fishing ground 2 that is not so clean. . Alternatively, the information updating unit 14 can generate the update information 5d such that the fish 1 to which only a small amount of food is given grows slower than the fish 1 to which more food is given (the amount of food is small). If it is extremely small, fish 1 may die). Alternatively, the behavior of the fish 1 changes depending on the situation of the fishing ground 2 (for example, if the fishing ground 2 is left unclean, the fish 1 becomes ferocious and cannibalizes or is kept clean. The information update unit 14 can generate the update information 5d so that the fish 1 becomes active and it is difficult for other players to catch the fish 1).

  Thus, the game program can prompt the player to play the game periodically (pull the player back to the game) because the fishing ground 2 requires continuous maintenance. The growth notification unit 17 can notify the player that the fishing ground 2 requires maintenance (for example, notify by push). Thereby, the game program can strongly urge the player to play the game regularly.

  In addition, the player can request another player in a friend relationship for maintenance of the fishing spot 2 managed by the player. Thereby, the game program can promote exchange between a plurality of players. Further, the player can (a) appreciate the fish 1 released to the fishing place 2, (b) take a fish hunt of the fish 1, or (c) cook the fish 1 and eat. . Thus, the game program can realize a variety of games.

(Development of fishing ground)
The player can customize (develop) the fishing ground 2 according to his / her preference. For example, the player changes the appearance of the fishing spot 2 by placing (a) decorations (for example, items that can be obtained at rocks, trees, waterfalls, fences, events, etc.) on the fishing spot 2 or (b) By providing a management facility (for example, a water purification facility, a water temperature stabilizing facility, etc.) at the fishing ground 2, the function of the fishing ground 2 can be enhanced. Specifically, (1) the input information obtaining unit 11 obtains input information 5g indicating that a decoration / facility designated by the player is to be added, changed, or deleted, and (2) the information updating unit 14 has a fishing ground. 2, the update information 5d indicating that the decoration / facility is added / changed / deleted is generated, and the transmission unit 22 transmits the update information 5d to the server device 200. Update fishing spot information.

  As described above, the game program allows the player to flexibly customize the fishing place 2, thereby giving the player a sense of accomplishment that “there is a favorite fishing place (environment)”.

  The game program includes, for example, (a) the number of fish 1 released by the player to the fishing spot 2, (b) the type of the fish 1, (c) progress of a predetermined quest, (d) growth of the player, and the like (that is, The above-described customization can be executed by the server device 200 or can be executed by the player (the limitation can be released) in accordance with the state of achievement of the game by the game).

  Further, the player can customize the fishing spot 2 according to the purpose. For example, the player can customize the fishing spot 2 so that (a) the fishing spot 2 where many other players come to play, or (b) the fishing spot 2 which receives a challenge from other players. . In the case of (b), the player can devise so that another player cannot catch the fish 1. For example, the player devises a method of growing the fish 1 in consideration of (b1) compatibility between the fish 1 released to the fishing ground 2 and another player and / or a rod of the other player (for example, (B2) changing the type of bait to be given, the water quality of the fishing ground 2, etc.), and (b2) increasing the hit points of the fish 1 by devising the position where the fish 1 is released to the fishing ground 2, Or have special attribute abilities.

  Further, because the fish 1 is not caught by another player, the fish 1 becomes stronger each time a challenge from the other player is rejected (grows up as a “Nushi” in the fishing place 2). For example, each time another player fails to catch the fish 1, the information updating unit 14 may (a) increase the parameter (for example, the maximum hit point) of the fish 1 or (b) increase the skill / attribute special. It is possible to generate update information 5d that can update the game medium information 5c related to the fish 1 so as to give the ability.

  As described above, the game program can promote exchange between a plurality of players by enabling a player to customize the fishing spot 2 in consideration of a relationship with another player.

  The player connects the fishing ground 2 managed by himself / herself to another fishing ground managed by another player in the vicinity of the fishing ground 2 by a waterway, so that the fish 1 discharged to the two can freely come and go. You can do it. Specifically, the information updating unit 14 transmits the fish 1 (game content) managed by the player and the other player 1 (game content) so that the fish 1 (game content) managed by another player can exchange with each other. Generate association information for associating with a player. This allows each player to cross the fish 1 released to the fishing ground 2 with the other fish released to another fishing ground, and to efficiently breed the fish 1 released to both. Note that the probability of mating, the ratio of one fish mixed with the other fish, and the like may change according to the specifications (width, depth, distance, etc.) of the waterway. Thus, the game program can realize a variety of games.

  Each player can browse and visit another fishing place managed by another player, and can fish at the other fishing place. In other words, each player can show the fishing ground 2 developed by himself to other players. Specifically, (1) the input information obtaining unit 11 obtains input information 5g indicating that the player browses / visits the other fishing spot specified by the player, and (2) the display information output unit 15 By acquiring the fishing spot information (game content management information) on the other fishing spot 2 from the server device 200 (predetermined storage device), the fish 1 released to the other fishing spot can be caught (obtainable). Then, display information 5e for displaying the game screen is output. Accordingly, the game program can satisfy the player's desire to reveal himself, and thus can increase the motivation of the player to play the game.

(Configuration to manage fishing spots shared by multiple players)
FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a state in which the fishing ground 2 is managed by a group including a plurality of players. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the fish 1 is managed jointly with a co-player belonging to the same group as the player, and the information updating unit 14 is co-managed by the player and the co-player. The game medium information 5c related to the fish 1 stored in the predetermined storage device can be updated so that the fish 1 grows as the game progresses. This allows the game program to give each player a sense of solidarity of “growing fish in a group”, thereby increasing the motivation of each player to play the game.

  As illustrated in FIG. 4, the display information output unit 15 includes (a) a fishing spot 2 managed by a player or a group, and / or (b) an avatar of a player (projecting the player onto the game field). As a result, the display information 5e for displaying the player (for example, a character simulating the appearance of the player) 4a to 4d can be output. Accordingly, the game program can give each player a sense of unity of "developing a fishing spot in a group", and thus can increase the motivation of each player to play the game. Note that the player can operate the avatar so that his / her avatar walks around the fishing spot 2.

  Each player catches the fish 1 from the outside (the sea, a river, a fishing place managed by another player, etc.), and releases the fish 1 caught to a fishing place (joint fishing place) jointly managed by a group to which each player belongs. (Bring fish). In a group, each player belonging to the group can share a role. For example, the player who is the leader of the group has various roles such as (a) a role of releasing a fish serving as a bait, (b) a role of releasing a large game (a fish with a high rarity), and (c) a role of maintaining a decoration. Can be assigned to each player. Thereby, the game program can give each player a sense of unity by the group. Note that the game program can cause the big game to appear when a predetermined condition is satisfied (for example, when a fish has grown to a predetermined degree).

  Actions taken by each player at the communal fishing spot may be described in a diary (information that can be viewed by each player belonging to the group). The diary may describe (a) the number and type of newly released fish, (b) the number and type of fish caught, (c) the name, time, and maintenance content of the player who maintained the decoration. . The information updating unit 14 can update the diary according to the action of each player. This allows the game program to share the actions taken by each player at the communal fishing ground within the group. Thus, the game program can promote exchange between players.

  Each player can freely form a group among the players. That is, (a) each player belonging to the group can designate a player who does not belong to the group and invite him to belong to the group, and (b) a player who does not belong to the group can It is possible to specify a group to which the user wants to belong, and request permission from a player (eg, a leader) belonging to the group to belong to the group.

  In the case of the above (a), (1) the input information acquisition unit 11 acquires the invitation information for urging the player to belong to the group to which the player belongs, and (2) the information update unit 14 performs If further approval information from the player is obtained, the group to which the other player belongs is changed based on the invitation information. In the case of the above (b), (1) the input information acquisition unit 11 acquires permission application information for requesting permission to belong to a group, and (2) the information updating unit 14 When the approval information from the target group is further acquired, the group to which the other player belongs is changed based on the approval information. Thus, the game program can promote exchange between players.

  Note that the server device 200 may designate a plurality of players and forcibly form a group with the plurality of players. Also, in order to revitalize the group, take new measures (for example, install new maintenance equipment) in the group, have the group leader send e-mail to everyone, and return to the old player You can get it. Thereby, the game program can further promote exchange between a plurality of players.

(Other configurations)
The player can raise the fish 1 using the casting net. In this case, (a) not only the fish 1 released to the fishing place 2 but also items hidden in the fishing place 2 can be lifted, or (b) the number of times the player can use the casting net is limited (for example, (Once a day). Thus, the game program can incorporate a new taste into the game.

  In addition, the player picks up and collects predetermined items (for example, “soul” or the like) scattered on the game field and / or the fishing ground 2 and collects a predetermined number (for example, 10) of the predetermined items. It is possible to repair (recover durability) the rod held by the player (the durability is reduced according to the number of uses, and the rod is broken when the durability becomes zero). It should be noted that only the casting net can pick up the predetermined item, a predetermined item unnecessary for the player can be discarded at the fishing spot, or a specific character who can undertake repair of the rod is displayed on the game field. You may go to. Thus, the game program can realize a variety of games.

  The player can keep the fish 1 caught in public fishing grounds (sea, rivers, etc.) and / or fishing grounds managed by other players in a temporarily storeable big or fishing cage. Then, the player can select a fish to be bred and bred at his / her own fishing spot from among the fish put in the fish cage or the big cage. Thus, the game program can give the player a margin for the selection.

  The game program is executed according to a predetermined standard (for example, the number of fish caught, the magnitude of damage given to the fish, the number of types of fish released to the fishing spot, the strength of the fish, and the number of unfished fish). , Players can be displayed in a ranking. In addition, the game program can rank each fishing spot managed by each player according to the predetermined criteria. In this case, the game program can rank the fishing spot with the number of visits by other players as one of the predetermined criteria (that is, the fishing spot where no one visits the fishing is reduced in rank). Thus, the game program can motivate each player so that the exchange between the plurality of players becomes active.

  The above-mentioned game program is configured such that, according to a predetermined criterion (for example, a parameter set for a fish, the number of times the fish has not been caught by another player, etc.), the fish 1 (both bosses) released to the fishing place 2 ) Can be determined. It should be noted that the fish that becomes the pear may be determined by the designation of the player. The above-mentioned game program can give a special condition to the fish which becomes a flock, for example, when the fish which becomes a flea is caught by another player, the fishing place 2 is robbed by the other player. . Thus, the game program can realize a variety of games.

  The game program can realize a match (fishing confrontation) between players having strong fish. In addition, it is possible to allow players belonging to the same group to hold a “fishing tournament”. In this case, for example, it is possible to elaborate that 15 players fish at the same fishing place at the same time. Thereby, the game program can further promote exchange between a plurality of players.

  Further, the game program produces a sense of unity in the group by displaying, on a game screen, a situation in which an avatar operated by each player is sitting on a chair of the same type (for example, a chair of the same color) and fishing. be able to. Further, the game program can deliver (a) fish habitat information and / or (b) recommended fishing place information to the mobile terminal 100 operated by each player. Thereby, the game program can further promote exchange between a plurality of players.

  The player can find items that can be used in the game by visiting fishing spots managed by other players or walking around other game fields. Thus, the game program can realize a more interesting game.

  The player can specify a fishing point (a position where a fishing line hangs) in the fishing spot 2. In this case, the game program can change the fish 1 that can be caught according to the position. Thus, the game program allows the player to simulate a more realistic fishing game.
