[1. Overall configuration of game system]
FIG. 1 shows the overall configuration of a game system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 1 according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of user terminals 10-1, 10-2,..., 10-N and a server 30. In addition, below, the content common to the user terminals 10-1, 10-2, and 10-N may be described as "user terminal 10".

The user terminal 10 and the server 30 are connected to the network N. Therefore, mutual data communication can be performed between the user terminal 10 and the server 30.

The user terminal 10 is a terminal device (computer) used by a user. In the present embodiment, the user terminal 10 is a computer used by a user to play a game. For example, the user terminal 10 is a mobile phone (including a smartphone), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a portable game machine, a stationary game machine, an arcade game machine, or a multifunctional device having an information processing function. Type television receiver (smart TV). In the following, a case where a mobile phone (smartphone) equipped with a touch panel is the user terminal 10 and a program supplied from the server 30 is executed on the mobile phone (smartphone) will be described.

Further, the user terminal 10 or the server 30 may include a component for reading a program or data stored in an information storage medium (for example, an optical disc or a memory card). Then, the program or data may be supplied to the user terminal 10 or the server 30 via the information storage medium.

[2. Game outline]
In the game system 1, a game is executed by executing a program on the user terminal 10. The game system 1 can execute various games. For example, various games such as sports games (baseball, soccer, tennis, American football, basketball, volleyball, etc.), adventure games, simulation games, role-playing games, or training games are available regardless of game formats and genres. It is possible to execute various games.

Hereinafter, as an example of a game executed in the game system 1, a first game in which the first parameter of the first game object is changed or set based on a user operation, and a second game in which the first game object is used. The game will be described. Each of the first game and the second game may be a part of a certain game, or may be separate bodies as a game. That is, a part of the game executed by a certain game program may be each of the first game and the second game, or the first game is executed by the first game program and the second game. The second game may be executed by the game program.

Before describing the details of the first game and the second game having the above characteristics, terms such as “game object” and “parameter” will be described.

The “game object” is, for example, a target that can be operated, instructed, used, or trained in a game. The “game object” is, for example, given to a user in a game. Specifically, for example, a game character, a game item, a game card, or the like corresponds to an example of a “game object”.

The “first game object” is a game object that is a target for the user to change or set the first parameter. For example, the “first game object” is a game object for which the user improves the ability (performance). For example, the “first game object” is a game character to be trained by the user.

The “first parameter” is, for example, an ability parameter related to the ability (performance) of the first game object. The “capability parameter” may be, for example, information indicating the size of the capability or the level of the capability, or information indicating the presence or absence of a specific capability. Further, the “first parameter” may be a state parameter related to the state (condition) of the first game object. The "state parameter" is, for example, information indicating the goodness of the state. Further, when the first game object is a game character, the “first parameter” may be information indicating the personality of the first game object. The “first parameter” is a level parameter related to the strength (level) of the first game object. The “level parameter” is, for example, information indicating the magnitude of the level. The “first parameter” may be information indicating the ability or the like by a numerical value or a flag, or may be information indicating the ability or the like by a symbol (including characters).

“Changing or setting the first parameter” means changing the value of the first parameter or determining (determining) the value of the first parameter. For example, when the first parameter is a numerical value, increasing or decreasing the numerical value corresponds to “changing the first parameter”, and determining the increased or decreased numerical value is the “first parameter”. It is equivalent to "setting". Further, for example, when the first parameter is a flag, changing the on/off (valid/invalid) of the flag corresponds to “changing the first parameter”, and determining the changed value. Corresponds to "setting the first parameter". Further, for example, when the first parameter is a symbol, changing the current symbol to another symbol is equivalent to “changing the first parameter”, and determining the other symbol is “first parameter”. It is equivalent to "setting parameters".

The “first game” is, for example, a game whose main purpose is to change or set the first parameter. The “first game” is not limited to a game whose purpose is only to change or set the first parameter, but may be a game whose one purpose is to change or set the first parameter. Good. For example, the “first game” is a breeding game that breeds the first game object.

In other words, the "first game" is a game in which the user aims to set the first parameter of the first game object to a desired state. The “desired state” is a state in which the first parameter has a predetermined value or a predetermined value or more. For example, the “desired state” is a state in which the ability is the highest in the range that the ability parameter can take, or a state where the ability is higher than the reference. For example, when the ability parameter changes from 0 to 99, the highest ability state is the state of 99, which is the highest ability parameter. The state in which the ability is equal to or higher than the reference is a state in which the ability parameter is equal to or higher than a threshold value (for example, 80). Further, for example, the “desired state” is a state in which the ability parameter indicates that the person has a particular ability. Further, the “desired state” is a state in which the state is the best in the range that the state parameter can take or a state which is equal to or more than the reference. For example, when the state parameter takes any one of a plurality of stages (for example, the best, good, normal, bad, and worst five), the best state is the best state among these stages. is there. The standard or higher is a state in which the standard level or higher (for example, good or higher). Further, for example, the “desired state” is a state in which the state parameter indicates a specific state. Further, the “desired state” is a state in which the personality is the best in the range that the personality parameter can take, or a state in which the personality is equal to or higher than the standard. For example, when the personality parameter takes any of a multi-level personality (for example, the best, good, normal, bad, or worst five), the best personality is the best personality among these multi-level personalities. is there. The standard or higher is a character of the standard stage or higher (for example, good or higher). Further, for example, the “desired state” is a state in which the personality parameter indicates a specific personality. Further, for example, the “desired state” is a state of the highest level or a reference level or higher in the range that the level parameter can take. For example, when the level parameter changes from 0 to 99, the highest level is the state where the level parameter has the highest value of 99. The state of the reference level or higher is a state in which the level parameter is a threshold value (for example, 80) or higher.

The “first game” may be a game in which the parameters of each of the plurality of first game objects are changed or set. That is, the number of first game objects whose first parameters can be changed or set in the “first game” is not limited to one and may be plural. For example, the “first game” may be repeatedly played by the user, and the first parameter of a new first game object may be changed or set for each play.

In the present embodiment, the “first game” is a game in which the game effect relating to the change or setting of the first parameter is generated based on the second game object. In other words, the "first game" is a game in which an advantageous effect is generated based on the second game object to set the first parameter to a desired state.

The “second game object” is a game object different from the first game object. The “second game object” is, for example, an effect-generating game object for generating a game effect relating to the change or setting of the first parameter in the game. The “second game object” may be the same type of game object as the first game object, or may be a different type of game object. For example, when the “first game object” is a game character, the “second game object” may be a game item. A second parameter is associated with the second game object.

The “second parameter” is, for example, a level parameter related to the strength (level) of the second game object. For example, the level parameter is a numerical value or a symbol indicating the magnitude of the level. For example, the “second parameter” is a rarity level parameter related to the rarity level of the second game object. For example, the rarity degree parameter is a numerical value or a symbol indicating the magnitude of the rarity degree. For example, the “second parameter” is an ability parameter related to the ability (performance) of the second game object. The meaning of the capability parameter is the same as that described for the first parameter. The “second parameter” may be changeable or set based on the user's operation, or may be restricted so that it cannot be changed. For example, the second parameter may be changed or set when the user performs an operation for strengthening the second game object.

The “effect in the first game regarding the change or setting of the first parameter” is, for example, that an advantageous effect of changing or setting the first parameter is generated in the first game. For example, an event for changing or setting the first parameter is generated, or a game item for changing or setting the first parameter is given to the user. For example, an effect that makes it easier to change or set the first parameter may be generated in the first game. For example, a game event that facilitates the improvement of the first parameter may be generated, or a game object that facilitates the improvement of the first parameter may be given to the user. Alternatively, it may be branched into a game story in which the first parameter can be easily changed.

The “effect in the first game regarding the change or setting of the first parameter” refers to the effect of directly changing or setting the first parameter and the effect of indirectly changing or setting the first parameter. And both are included. Changing or setting the first parameter directly means, for example, changing or setting the first parameter immediately when an event occurs. Indirectly changing or setting the first parameter means, for example, that the first parameter is not changed or set when an event occurs, but a parameter for changing or setting the first parameter (for example, FIG. In FIG. 17, the user increases the number of experience points for changing or setting the ability parameter, or a game object for changing or setting the first parameter (for example, a game item for changing or setting the ability parameter). It is to give to. For example, the user can change or set the first parameter such as the ability parameter using the experience value points (FIGS. 16, 17, etc.) and the game item. For example, the user may change or set the first parameter such as the ability parameter using these immediately after the increase of the experience value points or immediately after giving the game item, or after a lapse of time ( The first parameter may be changed or set for use when the user plays or accesses the game, for example, after the date has changed.

The “advantageous effect of setting the first parameter to a desired state” is an effect of easily setting the first parameter to a desired state. For example, changing the amount of change of the first parameter so that the first parameter approaches the desired state. For example, when the first parameter is the ability parameter, it is to increase the increase amount of the ability parameter.

The “second game” is, for example, a game executed based on the first game object. For example, the “second game” is a game in which a given game task is achieved based on the first game object. In other words, the “second game” is a game in which the user aims to achieve the game task based on the first game object.

The “game task” is a task to be achieved in the game. For example, the “game task” is to leave a predetermined result in the second game. The “game task” differs depending on the content of the second game. For example, when the second game is a competitive game in which the first game object in which the first parameter is changed in the first game is used, winning the battle may correspond to the “game task”.

The “competition game” is a game in which a user and an opponent compete with each other. The opponent may be another user or a computer. For example, the “competition game” is a game in which the competition is performed based on the first game object owned by the user and the first game object owned by the opponent. For example, the “competition game” is a game in which a sports match is played.

The “second game” may be a game in which a reward is given according to the content or result of the game. In this case, obtaining more rewards corresponds to the “game task”.

The “reward” is a game object (game item or the like) or parameter (points or in-game currency) given to the user. The content of the “reward” changes depending on the result or content of the game, and the user plays the game aiming to obtain a better reward. Good reward means that the reward is large or the reward is rare.

Next, an outline of the first game and the second game will be described by taking a baseball game as an example. The correspondence between the main terms among the terms described above and the terms used in the baseball game described below is as follows.
-"First game": Success part-"Second game": Stadium part-"First game object": Main character or original character-"Second game object": Event character-"First parameter": Main character Or the ability parameter of the original character-"Second parameter": Level parameter of the event character

FIG. 2 shows an example of a home screen image of a baseball game. As shown in FIG. 2, various parameters related to the user who plays the baseball game are displayed in the upper area A110 of the home screen image G100. The upper area A110 includes areas A111 to A116 for displaying various parameters regarding the user.

Area A111 shows the user name. Area A112 shows the amount of coins owned by the user. “Coins” are virtual currencies used in the game and are used to strengthen event characters described later (see FIGS. 23 to 27). Area A113 indicates the number of power stones owned by the user. The “power stone” is a game item necessary for performing a lottery (gacha) for obtaining an event character, and for exceptionally recovering parameters that are normally recovered over time at one time.

Area A114 shows the success point of the user. Success points are points necessary for playing a success part (see FIGS. 3 to 19) described later. As will be described later, the success part is a game part in which the user trains a game character (an example of the first game object) that is a baseball player and creates an original character only for himself. The success points are decreased (consumed) when the user starts playing in the success mode, and increased (recovered) with the passage of time. In addition, in the area A114, the remaining time until all the success points are recovered may be displayed.

Area A115 shows the rank and overall strength of the user's team. In this baseball game, the user can form his or her own team using the original characters trained in the success part in the past (see FIGS. 29 and 30), and can play against the teams of other users. (See FIGS. 34 and 35). For example, in the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the alphabet (B) displayed in the area A115 indicates the rank of the user's team. “B” has a lower rank than “A” and a higher rank than “C”. The numerical value (10200) displayed in the area A115 indicates the total strength of the user's team. For example, the higher the value, the higher the comprehensive strength. The total strength is calculated based on the abilities of the game characters belonging to the team.

Area A116 indicates the number of match tickets owned by the user. The “match ticket” is a game item necessary to play against a team of another user in the stadium part described later. The user can play a game with another user's team by using one match ticket. The number of match tickets will increase (recover) over time. The area A116 may display the remaining time until the number of match tickets increases.

In the lower area A120 of the home screen image G100, a plurality of processing objects P121 to P125 are displayed. The “processing object” is, for example, an image, a symbol, a text, or the like associated with processing. Specifically, for example, a button, an icon, a link, or the like corresponds to an example of a “processing object”. When the processing object is selected, the processing associated with the processing object is executed.

The processing object P121 is associated with the processing for returning to the home screen image G100. When the user selects the processing object P121 displayed on the screen image while the screen image other than the home screen image G100 is displayed on the display unit 15, the home screen image G100 is displayed on the display unit 15.

The process object P122 is associated with a process for displaying a screen image for forming a team of users. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 28 to 30). Further, the processing object P123 is associated with processing for displaying a screen image for confirming the event character owned by the user, organizing the event character's deck, and strengthening the event character. ing. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 20 to 27).

The processing object P124 is associated with processing for displaying a screen image for performing a lottery (gacha) for obtaining an event character. When the user selects the processing object P124, a screen image for performing the lottery is displayed on the display unit 15.

In the processing object P125, in exchange for real-world currency (for example, dollar or yen) or currency used outside the game (for example, electronic money or points), purchase power stones, success points, or match tickets. A process for displaying a screen image for recovery or the like is associated. When the user selects the processing object P125, a screen image for purchasing power stones or recovering success points or match tickets is displayed on the display unit 15 in exchange for real-world currency.

Further, the home screen image G100 includes a processing object P130. The processing object P130 is associated with processing for displaying a menu screen image. When the user selects the processing object P130, the menu screen image is displayed on the display unit 15. Through this menu screen image, the user can establish a relationship (for example, a friend relationship or a friend relationship) with another user, and can confirm a notification from the game providing company.

Further, the home screen image G100 includes processing objects P140, P150, P160. This baseball game has three parts, which are a success part, a stadium part, and a challenge part, and the processing objects P140, P150, and P160 are for the user to select one of these parts. ..

The processing object P140 is associated with the success part, and the user can play the success part by selecting the processing object P140. As described above, the success part is a game part for raising a game character, and details of the success part will be described later (see FIGS. 3 to 19).

The processing object P150 is associated with the stadium part, and the user can play the stadium part by selecting the processing object P150. As described above, the stadium part is a game part that plays against a team of another user, and the details of the stadium part will be described later (see FIGS. 34 and 35).

The processing object P160 is associated with the challenge part, and the challenge part is executed by the user selecting the processing object P160. In this baseball game, a plurality of game tasks such as “train three player characters in the success part” and “win 100 times in the stadium part” are preset. In the challenge part, the user can check the achievement status of each game task and obtain a reward associated with the game task that the user has achieved. Note that the above-mentioned problems may be set on a daily basis, a weekly basis, or a monthly basis.

As shown in FIG. 2, the processing objects P140, P150, P160 are displayed at the positions corresponding to the three vertices of the upright triangle, respectively, and the user selects one of the processing objects P140, P150, P160. When any one is selected, the selected processing object is displayed at the position corresponding to the upper vertex.

The example illustrated in FIG. 2 illustrates a state in which the processing object P140 associated with the success part is selected. In this state, as shown in FIG. 2, the processing objects P141 to P143 related to the success part are displayed.

In the success part, the user trains the main character by having the game character (hereinafter, referred to as “main character”) practice while proceeding with the scenario, and creates an original character only for the user. Here, the "scenario" is a game story developed in accordance with the progress of the game.

As an example of the above-described scenario, a game story in which the main character is in the second year of high school until becoming a professional baseball player is provided. For example, the hero character belongs to a high school baseball club, wins regulars while practicing with teammates, and participates in baseball games (local qualifying tournament, national tournament, etc.). Then, if the evaluation of the scout of the professional baseball team that observes the practice and the game of the main character is equal to or higher than the standard, the main character is scouted as a professional baseball player in the fall of the third year of high school.

In this embodiment, a plurality of scenarios are provided as scenarios in the success part. For example, the high school to which the hero character belongs is different between these plural scenarios. Specifically, the high school to which the main character belongs is a general high school, the high school to which the main character belongs is prestigious in baseball, and the high school to which the main character belongs is boys and girls. A plurality of scenarios, such as a high school where the number of students is very large compared to one, is provided as the plurality of scenarios.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, scenario A (A high school), scenario B (B high school), and scenario C (C high school) are associated with the processing objects P141, P142, and P143, respectively. When the user selects any of the processing objects P141 to P143, the selected processing object is displayed in the center of the home screen image G100.

The example illustrated in FIG. 2 illustrates a state in which the processing object P142 associated with the scenario B (B high school) is selected. When the user further selects the processing object P142 in this state, the success part is executed. In this case, the scenario of the success part is scenario B.

Here, the flow of the success part will be described. FIG. 3 shows an example of the flow of the success part. As shown in FIG. 3, in the success part, the main part is executed after the prepart is executed. In the pre-part, the information necessary for executing the main part is registered and set.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the pre-part, the basic information of the main character is first registered. FIG. 4 shows an example of the hero registration screen image for registering the basic information of the hero character. Since the upper area A210, the lower area A220, and the processing object P130 in the hero registration screen image G200 shown in FIG. 4 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, here. Then, the description is omitted.

As shown in FIG. 4, the hero registration screen image G200 includes a hero registration area A240. The hero registration area A240 is an area for registering the basic information of the hero character to be trained in the success part. For example, the basic information includes a name, a voice, a defense position, a dominant arm, and a batting form (or a pitching form). In addition, "voice" is how to read the name of the protagonist character when it is output by voice (reading or furigana). Further, when the "defense position" is other than the pitcher, the "hit form" is included in the basic information, and when the "defense position" is the pitcher, the "pitch form" is included.

In this embodiment, the basic information of the hero character is automatically initialized and displayed in the hero registration area A240. In the main character registration area A240, the processing objects P241 to P245 are displayed in association with each item, and the user can change the content of the item by selecting the processing object associated with the item to be changed. it can. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 4, since the processing object P241 is associated with "name", the user can change the name of the hero character to any name by selecting the processing object P241.

Further, the hero registration screen image G200 includes processing objects P230 and P250. The processing object P230 is associated with the processing for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P230, the home screen image G100 is displayed on the display unit 15.

On the other hand, the processing object P250 is associated with processing for completing the setting of the basic information of the main character. As shown in FIG. 3, when the registration of the basic information of the main character is completed, the event deck is set. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P250, the event deck setting screen image for setting the event deck is displayed on the display unit 15. Although the details will be described later, the event character set in the event deck affects the training of the main character.

FIG. 5 is an example of an event deck setting screen image. The upper area A310, the lower area A320, and the processing object P130 in the event deck setting screen image G300 shown in FIG. 5 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. The description is omitted here. Further, the processing object P330 in the event deck setting screen image G300 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the main character registration screen image G200), like the processing object P230 in the main character registration screen image G200. Is.

As shown in FIG. 5, the event deck setting screen image G300 includes an event deck setting area A340. Note that the contents displayed in the event deck setting area A340 are omitted in FIG. 5, and the contents displayed in the event deck setting area A340 are shown in FIG.

Here, the "event deck" will be described. As will be described later, various events occur in the main part (scenario) of the success part. For example, an event occurs that is advantageous for improving the ability of the main character. In this respect, in the present embodiment, the event that occurs during the main part of the success part is not fixed, and various events occur according to one or more game characters that the user has incorporated in the event deck. ing. Therefore, the user can select an event that can occur in the main part by selecting a game character to be incorporated in the event deck. In the following, a game character that can be incorporated in the event deck (in other words, a game character for event generation) is called an “event character”.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the event deck setting area A340 includes an area A341 and a processing object P342. Area A341 shows the name of the event deck. Further, the processing object P342 is associated with processing for displaying a screen image for changing the name of the event deck. When the user selects the processing object P342, a screen image for changing the name of the event deck is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user can change the name of the event deck.

Further, in the event deck setting area A340, six setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, A344-5, A345 for setting an event character that is a member of the event deck are provided. Has been.

In this embodiment, a predetermined number of event characters are given to the user when the user plays this baseball game for the first time. In addition, the user can obtain the event character by lottery, obtain the event character as a reward in the game, or obtain the event character from another user. The event character is given to the user in the form of a game card (digital card), and the user can own the event character in the form of a game card. In this respect, in the present embodiment, the user can arbitrarily incorporate a maximum of five event characters from the event characters owned by the user into the event deck. Setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, A344-5 are frames for setting the event character owned by the user as a member of the event deck. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, an image showing the event character set in the event deck by the user is displayed in the event deck setting area A340 together with the level and rarity of the event character.

Further, in the present embodiment, only one event character owned by another user can be incorporated in the event deck as a helper. The setting frame A345 is a frame for setting an event character owned by another user as a member of the event deck.

Note that in the example shown in FIG. 6, the upper limit of the number of event characters that can be incorporated into the event deck among the event characters owned by the user is set to “5”, and owned by other users. The upper limit of the number of event characters that can be incorporated into the event deck among the event characters being played is set to "1". For example, these upper limits may be changed by satisfying a predetermined condition. Specifically, for example, the upper limit may be increased when the degree of progress of the game reaches the reference. Alternatively, the upper limit may be increased by billing (for example, by consuming a billing item). Alternatively, the upper limit may be increased by consuming a predetermined amount of in-game points, in-game currency, or the like. In addition, the upper limit may be changed by satisfying various conditions.

When the user performs a long-pressing operation on any of the setting frames (an operation of touching for more than a predetermined time), an event character screen image showing detailed information of the event character set in the setting frame is displayed on the display unit 15. Is displayed.

FIG. 7 shows an example of the event character screen image. As shown in FIG. 7, the event character screen image G400 includes a first area A410, a second area A420, and a third area A440.

In the first area 410, the name, image, rarity, level, experience value, event power, player ability, and good practice of the event character are displayed. Here, event power, player ability, good practice, etc. differ depending on each event character. In particular, since the practicing skill varies depending on each event character, the user has a choice and a strategy when incorporating the event character in the event deck.

“Rarity” indicates, for example, the difficulty of obtaining an event character. The higher the rarity of the event character, the more difficult it is to obtain the event character. In general, the higher the rarity of the event character, the higher the usefulness (ability, effect, etc.) of the event character, and thus "rarity" can be said to indicate the usefulness of the event character.

In the example shown in FIG. 7, “R” displayed on the left side of the image of the event character indicates the rarity of the event character. In the present embodiment, each of the event characters has one of a plurality of stages of rarities of PSR (powerful super rare), SR (super rare), PR (powerful rare), R (rare), PN (powerful normal), and N (normal). Associated. If these are arranged in order from the highest one, PSR, SR, PR, R, PN, N will be obtained. That is, PSR indicates the highest rarity, and N indicates the lowest rarity. It should be noted that even the same event character may have six types of rarities of PSR, SR, PR, R, PN, and N. The same event character here is an event character having the same name, and can be said to be an event character having the same appearance (image). For example, when the event characters are persons, being the same person is equivalent to being the same event character.

“Level” indicates the level of the event character. In the example shown in FIG. 7, the description “Lv. 8/22 (+2)” indicates the level of the event character. This indicates that the current level of the event character is "8" and the maximum level (upper limit level) is "22".

Further, in the example shown in FIG. 7, the gauge area A411 indicates the current experience value of the event character. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, an experience value is given to the event character by combining the event character with another event character (see FIGS. 23 to 27). Then, when the experience value of the event character reaches a predetermined value, the level of the event character increases by one. The state in which the gauge in the gauge area A411 extends to the right end of the gauge area A411 corresponds to the state in which the experience value of the event character reaches a predetermined value.

The level of the event character is limited so as not to exceed the maximum level. Maximum level depends on rarity. The higher the rarity, the higher the maximum level. When the same event character is combined with the event character, the maximum level of the event character may increase. The description "Lv. 8/22 (+2)" indicates that the maximum level of the event character is increased by 2. That is, the initial maximum level of the event character is "20", which means that the maximum level has risen to "22" by strengthening the event character.

The “event power” indicates the potential of an event associated with the event character (that is, an event that can occur in the main part according to the event character). It is shown that the higher the value of the event power, the easier it is to improve the ability of the main character. The higher the rarity, the higher the event power value.

The “player ability” indicates the ability of the event character as a player. In the main part, a match event occurs in the main part (scenario) of the success part, and a match between the high school to which the hero character belongs and another high school is held. In this match, the event character incorporated in the event deck participates as the main character's teammate. The player ability indicates the high ability of the event character in such a match.

In the example shown in FIG. 7, alphabets and numerical values indicating player abilities are displayed. The higher the numerical value, the higher the ability of the event character as a player in the match. Further, one of the alphabets S, A, B, C, D, E, and F is associated with the event character according to the numerical value. "S" indicates that the player ability is very high, and "F" indicates that the player ability is very low.

In addition, the player's ability remains unchanged in a predetermined state. That is, even if another event character is combined with the event character, the player ability of the event character does not change. The event character screen image G400 includes the processing object P430 associated with the processing for displaying the details of the player abilities of the event character. When the user selects the processing object P430, a screen image showing the details of the player abilities of the event character is displayed on the display unit 15.

“Good practice” indicates practice that the event character is good at. As will be described later, in the main part (scenario) of the success part, the ability of the main character can be increased by making the main character practice. Further, when the hero character is allowed to practice the event character's specialty along with the event character, the ability of the hero can be more easily increased than in the normal case.

The second area A420 shows the event character's event list, event bonus, and profile. As shown in FIG. 7, the second area A420 includes a first tab T421, a second tab T422, and a third tab T423.

The first tab T421 shows an event list of event characters. The "event list" shows a list of events that can occur in the main part of the success part when the event character is incorporated in the event deck. Further, the third tab T423 shows the profile of the event character. Note that in the example shown in FIG. 7, the second tab T422 is mainly displayed, but the user selects the first tab T421 or the third tab T423 to replace the second tab T422 with the first tab T422. T421 or the third tab T423 can be displayed.

The second tab T422 shows the event bonus of the event character. In the main part of the success part, an advantageous effect (bonus) for increasing the ability of the main character is generated by the event character incorporated in the event deck. The “event bonus” indicates an effect that occurs in the main part of the success part when the event character is incorporated in the event deck.

In the example shown in FIG. 7, "initial evaluation 15", "special tag bonus 20%", "knocks event bonus 20%", and "special practice rate increase 10%" are set as event bonuses of the event character. The details of these event bonuses will be described later (see the description of FIGS. 13, 16, and 17).

The effect generated by the event character may differ depending on the combination of the event character and the scenario of the success part selected by the user. For example, the event or event bonus generated by the event character may change according to the scenario. In this case, the effect for each scenario may be identified in the event character screen image G400. In addition, in the success part, a game in which the main character participates is performed, and the event character can also participate in this game. However, the event character cannot participate in the match of the stadium part.

In the present embodiment, as the level of the event character becomes higher, the event bonus (the above effect) becomes stronger. As shown in FIG. 7, the second tab T422 includes a processing object P424 associated with processing for displaying the correspondence between the level of the event character and the event bonus. When the user selects the processing object P424, a bonus detail screen image showing the correspondence between the level of the event character and the event bonus is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 8 shows an example of the bonus detail screen image. As shown in FIG. 8, on the bonus detail screen image G500, the correspondence between the level of the event character and the event bonus is displayed. That is, the bonus detail screen image G500 displays the bonus associated with the level of the event character. The event bonus associated with the level "n" of the event character indicates an event bonus generated in the main part of the success part when the level of the event character is equal to or higher than the level "n".

Further, in the bonus detail screen image G500, an event bonus associated with a level equal to or lower than the current level of the event character and an event bonus associated with a level higher than the current level of the event character are displayed.

Further, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the user can distinguish between an event bonus associated with a level equal to or lower than the current level of the event character and an event bonus associated with a level higher than the current level of the event character. To be done. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the check object is displayed in association with a level lower than the current level of the event character. In the example shown in FIG. 8, since the current level of the event character is “8” (see FIG. 7), the check objects C510 and C520 are displayed in association with the levels “1” and “5”. Therefore, the user can easily understand “what event bonus is generated in the main part of the success part by incorporating the event character in the current state into the event deck”. It should be noted that, in place of the check objects C510 and C520 described above, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the color of an area having a level equal to or lower than the current level of the event character (that is, an area indicating an effect that occurs at the current level of the event character). May be changed or the brightness may be changed. On the contrary, in the bonus detail screen image G500, the color of the region showing the effect that does not occur at the current level of the event character or the brightness may be changed.

The bonus detail screen image G500 also includes a processing object P530 associated with a process for closing the bonus detail screen image G500. When the user selects the processing object P530, the bonus detail screen image G500 disappears and the event character screen image G400 is displayed.

As shown in FIG. 7, the third area A440 of the event character screen image G400 includes processing objects P441, P442 and P443.

The processing object P441 is a processing object associated with processing for closing the event character screen image G400. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P441, the event character screen image G400 disappears and the event deck setting screen image G300 is displayed.

The processing object P442 is a processing object associated with processing for locking the event character. “Locking an event character” means that the event character cannot be sold or cannot be combined with another event character. When the user selects the processing object P442, the event character displayed in the event character screen image G400 is locked. When the event character displayed in the event character screen image G400 is in the locked state, the processing object P442 is a processing object associated with the processing for unlocking the event character.

The processing object P443 is a processing object associated with processing for setting the event character as a leader. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P443, the event character displayed in the event character screen image G400 is set as the leader. The event character set as the leader by the user can be rented to other users as an assistant. On the contrary, the user can rent the event character set as the leader by another user and play the success part.

When the event character set as the leader by the user is rented as an assistant, a reward is given to the user. For example, when the event character set as the leader by the user is rented as an assistant, a notification indicating that effect and that the reward will be given is displayed on the display unit 15 when the game is started. The reward may be automatically given, or may be given when the user performs an operation for receiving the reward. As the reward, for example, gacha points, coins, store medals, game items, etc. may be given, the experience value or level of the event character owned by the user may be improved, or the hero character or the original character The ability parameter may be improved. Further, the content of the reward may change depending on the result of the success part used as the helper.

In the event deck setting area A340 shown in FIG. 6, the user performs a tap operation on any of the setting frames A344-1, A344-2, A344-3, A344-4, A344-5 (operation of touching for a short time). Then, the event character set in the setting frame is selected as the change source, and the event character change screen image for changing the event character selected as the change source to another event character is displayed on the display unit 15. It

FIG. 9 shows an example of the event character change screen image. The upper area A610, the lower area A620, and the processing object P130 in the event character change screen image G600 shown in FIG. 9 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. The description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P630 in the event character change screen image G600 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the event deck setting screen image G300), like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. Is.

The event character change screen image G600 includes an event character list area A640. The event character list area A640 shows a list of event characters owned by the user. In the event character list area A640, the user can distinguish between the event characters incorporated in the event deck and the event characters not incorporated in the event deck. In the example shown in FIG. 9, the text (or image) of "in use" is displayed in association with the event character incorporated in the event deck, so that the same event character cannot be duplicated in the event deck. It is not selectable. The user selects any of the event characters not incorporated in the event deck as the change destination. When the user selects any of the event characters as the change destination, the event character selected as the change destination is incorporated in the event deck instead of the event character selected as the change source.

The event character list area A640 includes a processing object P641 associated with processing for removing the event character selected as the change source from the event deck. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P641, the event character selected as the change source is removed from the event deck.

The processing object P650 is associated with processing for sorting the display order of the event characters displayed in the event character list area A640. Multiple conditions can be specified here. For example, "entry procedure", "rarity order", "level order", "special practice (detailed later) order", "event power order", "player ability order". Event characters can be sorted by "name order" and "lock order".

In the event deck setting area A340 shown in FIG. 6, when the user performs a tap operation (touch operation for a short time) on the setting frame A345, a helper is selected from the event characters owned by other users. A screen image for selection is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 10 shows an example of the event deck setting area A340 when the event character in the setting frame A344-5 is changed to another event character and an assistant is selected from the event characters owned by another user. Show.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 10, the event deck setting area A340 includes a good practice area A346. The good practice area A346 shows good practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 10, in the event deck setting area A340, the event characters shown in the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5 and A345 and the good practice shown in the good practice area A346 are displayed. Will be there. That is, the event character and the good practice corresponding to the event character are displayed on the same screen. For this reason, the user can easily visually recognize the desired practice and the event character having it, and can intuitively understand whether or not the event character incorporated in the event deck is ideal. ..

In the present embodiment, there are 10 types of “striking”, “muscular strength”, “running base”, “shoulder strength”, “defense”, “mental”, “ball speed”, “control”, “stamina”, and “changing ball”. One of the exercises is set as a special exercise for the event character. Of these, "defense" and "mental" are practice items common to both fielders and pitchers. "Batting", "muscle strength", "running base", and "shoulder strength" are practice items for fielders. "Ball speed", "control", "stamina", and "changing ball" are pitcher's practice items. These exercises are performed by the main character in the success part described later.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 10, in the good practice area A346, those ten types of exercises are displayed, and among the ten types of exercises, set as the good exercises of the event character incorporated in the event deck. The practice that is present and the practice that is not set as the specialty practice of the event character built into the event deck are displayed so that the user can distinguish them.

In the practicing area A346, exercises mainly for fielders (hit, muscle strength, running base, shoulder strength, defense) are displayed on one side (left side), and exercises mainly for pitchers (ball speed, control , Stamina, changing sphere) is displayed on the other side (right side). And practice for both fielders and pitchers (mental) is displayed between them. With the practice display positions arranged in this way, as described below, by making it possible to identify the specialty practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck, an ideal event for training fielders or pitchers. It is possible to intuitively understand whether the character is incorporated in the event deck. For example, when the main character that the user is trying to train is a pitcher, it is intuitive that the event character incorporated in the event deck is not ideal for training a pitcher if many practicing exercises are placed on the left side. The user can easily make a decision such as replacing the event character. In this example, the practice for the fielder and the practice for the pitcher are divided into left and right, but may be divided into upper and lower. Furthermore, for example, the display modes of the practice of the fielder and the pitcher may be different. For example, the practice of a fielder may be displayed in green, and the practice of a pitcher may be displayed in red. By doing this, for example, if the main character that the user is trying to train is a fielder, and if there are many reds as a good practice, the event character incorporated in the event deck is not ideal for training a fielder. Since this can be intuitively grasped, the user can easily make a decision such as replacing the event character.

Further, in the specialty practice area A346, the practice set as the specialty practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck and the practice not set as the specialty practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck are displayed in different display modes. Is displayed. In the example shown in FIGS. 6 and 10, by displaying a cross mark in association with a practice that is not set as a good practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck, it is set as a good practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck. The practice that is being performed and the practice that is not set as the specialty practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck are displayed separately. Note that the method of performing the distinctive display is not limited to the cross mark. The display mode of the practice set as the specialty practice and the practice not set as the practice may be different, and for example, the display may be differentiated by changing the color tone and the brightness. In this case, the exercise set as the favorite exercise may be displayed brightly, and the exercise set as the favorite exercise may be displayed darker than that. In this way, the practicing practice can be grasped from the brightness of the image, so that the practicing practice can be grasped more intuitively.

In the practicing area A346 shown in FIG. 10, the numerical value (2) is displayed in association with each of “muscular strength” and “shoulder strength”. This numerical value indicates the number of event characters set in the practice as a good practice among the event characters incorporated in the event deck. This number includes a helper event character. The good practice area A346 shown in FIG. 10 indicates that, among the event characters incorporated in the event deck, two event characters having "muscular strength" set as good practice are included. Similarly, the good practice area A346 shown in FIG. 10 indicates that, among the event characters incorporated in the event deck, there are two event characters for which “shoulder strength” is set as good practice. .. Here, the number of event characters having the same good practice is displayed on the screen as a numerical value. However, for example, images such as star marks and icons are made to correspond to the number of event characters, and It may be displayed at any position in the surroundings or may be displayed by superimposing it on a good practice. Further, the image directly showing the number of event characters having the same practicing exercise is not displayed on the screen, and the more the number of event characters having the same practicing exercise is, the higher the brightness of the practicing exercise is, the light, The effect such as blinking may be strengthened.

In the practicing practice area A346, only the practice set as the special practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck is displayed, and the practice not set as the special practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck is displayed. You may not. If the event characters incorporated in the event deck include a plurality of event characters for which the same practice is set as a good practice, the practice is displayed in a good practice area A346. Good.

Further, in the present embodiment, not only the "player" event character but also the "manager" event character can be incorporated in the event deck. Since the "manager" event character has no good practice set, the display of the good practice area A346 does not change even if the event character is incorporated into the event deck. For example, in the special practice area A346 of the event deck in which the number of the "player" event characters is four and the number of the "manager" event character is one, the special practice for only four people is displayed.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 10, the event deck setting area A340 includes a processing object P343 associated with processing for automatically setting the event deck according to the user's request.

When the user selects the processing object P343, an automatic setting menu screen image for selecting the breeding policy of the main character is displayed. FIG. 11 shows an example of the automatic setting menu screen image. In the automatic setting menu screen image G700 shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to select either the first training policy of "training the main character as a pitcher" or the second training policy of "training the main character as a fielder". It has become.

The automatic setting menu screen image G700 includes a processing object P710. The process object P710 is associated with a process for selecting the first breeding policy. In other words, the processing object P710 is associated with processing for automatically setting an event deck suitable for raising the main character as a pitcher. That is, when the processing object P710 is selected, for example, an event character associated with an event that is advantageous in improving pitcher ability or an event character associated with a practice item for a pitcher as a good practice item. It is set as a member of the event deck with priority over other event characters.

The automatic setting menu screen image G700 also includes the processing object P720. The process object P720 is associated with a process for selecting the second raising policy. In other words, the processing object P420 is associated with processing for automatically setting an event deck suitable for raising the main character as a fielder. That is, when the processing object P720 is selected, for example, an event character associated with an event advantageous for improving fielder ability or an event character associated with a practice item for a fielder as a good practice item. It is set as a member of the event deck with priority over other event characters.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the user selects a desired option from the plurality of options displayed on the automatic setting menu screen image G700 (that is, the plurality of options related to the training policy), and thereby the desired training is performed. An event deck that matches the policy will be set automatically. This allows the user to easily set the event deck that matches the desired training policy.

If the "pitcher" training policy is selected and there are few event characters for which "pitcher" practice is set to good practice, an event where "fielder" practice is set to good practice The character may be set in the event deck. Conversely, if the "fielder" training policy is selected and there are few event characters for which "fielder" practice is set to good practice, "pitcher" practice is set to good practice. The event character may be set in the event deck. In this case, an event character with high rarity may be preferentially incorporated into the event deck.

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to select one of the two training policies of “pitcher” and “fielder”, but any one of the training policies concerning “pitcher” is selected. Alternatively, it may be possible to select any of a plurality of training policies regarding “fielder”. For example, the ability that the user attaches importance to may be selected from a plurality of abilities related to the “pitcher” or the “fielder”. For example, as the training policy regarding the “pitcher”, any one of “ball speed emphasis”, “control emphasis”, and “variable ball emphasis” may be selectable. Further, for example, as the training policy regarding “fielder”, any one of “meet emphasis”, “power emphasis”, “running importance”, and “defensive importance” may be selected.

Further, in the automatic setting menu screen image G700, a plurality of questions may be presented to the user. Then, the event character that matches the answers to the plurality of questions may be preferentially incorporated into the event deck. In this way, the breeding policy desired by the user may be determined from the answers to the plurality of questions, and the event character suitable for the breeding policy desired by the user may be preferentially incorporated into the event deck. As the plurality of questions, a plurality of questions regarding the personality diagnosis of the user may be presented. By doing so, an event character suitable for raising the main character so as to resemble the character of the user may be preferentially incorporated into the event deck.

The automatic setting menu screen image G700 also includes a processing object P730 associated with a process for closing the automatic setting menu screen image G700. When the user selects the processing object P730, the automatic setting menu screen image G700 disappears and the event deck setting screen image G300 is displayed.

Returning to FIG. 5, the event deck setting screen image G300 includes the processing object P350. The process object P350 is associated with a process for completing the setting of the event deck. As shown in FIG. 3, when the setting of the event deck is completed, the game item is selected. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P350, the screen image for selecting the game item is displayed on the display unit 15.

In the present embodiment, the user can obtain, as a reward, a game item that is advantageous in increasing the ability of the main character in the success part or can be obtained from another user. In this screen image, the user selects a game item to be used in the current success part (main part) from the game items owned by the user. An upper limit (for example, two) is set for the number of game items that can be selected here. The user cannot select game items exceeding this upper limit.

When the selection of the game item is completed, the prepart is completed and the main part is started. In the main part, the scenario selected by the user on the home screen image G100 is started. For example, a scenario in which a hero character belongs to a high school baseball club, wins regulars while practicing with teammates, participates in games (local qualifying tournament and national tournament), and aims to become a professional baseball player. Be started.

An event character built into the event deck appears in the scenario. For example, the event character incorporated in the event deck appears as a teammate of the main character or a manager of the baseball club to which the main character belongs. In this way, the event character owned by the user becomes a character in the scenario by being incorporated in the event deck. The game character incorporated in the event deck may appear in the game as a player of a rival team, for example.

In addition, a predetermined game character (for example, one director, one scout, one manager, four to eight teammate players) is set as a character in advance in the scenario. These game characters appear in the game even if they are not included in the event deck. Therefore, the event character incorporated in the event deck can be regarded as a game character added as a character.

As shown in FIG. 3, the main part (scenario) includes a plurality of sections. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the main part (scenario) is divided into four sections in time series.

Further, in the example shown in FIG. 3, the scenario is branched. Specifically, sections 3A and 3B are prepared as the third section. Therefore, the user can select either one of the sections 3A and 3B after the section 2 is completed. If the user selects section 3A, section 3A is started, and section 4A is started after section 3A is completed. On the other hand, when the user selects the section 3B, the section 3B is started, and after the section 3B is completed, the section 4B is started. That is, after the user selects the section 3A, it is impossible to move to the section 4B, and conversely, after the user selects the section 3B, it is impossible to move to the section 4A.

The scenario may branch only within a specific period. That is, the user may be allowed to proceed to the sections 3B and 4B only within a specific period, and the user may not be able to proceed to the sections 3B and 4B outside the specific period. In such a case, in the sections 3B and 4B, a special event that does not normally occur unless a special event character (for example, an event character with high rarity) is incorporated in the event deck is used as a special event character. It does not have to be built in the deck and may occur. By doing so, even for a user who does not own the special event character within a specific period, the special event may be generated by proceeding to the sections 3B and 4B. In addition, if the user finishes the specific period during the progress of the sections 3B and 4B, the sections 3B and 4B can be advanced for a predetermined period (for example, one day) thereafter. May be. Further, the section after the sections 3A and 3B may be further branched into a plurality of sections. Further, there may be a plurality of sections that can be advanced only within a specific period. Further, when the scenario branches as described above, if the user selects a specific section, the hero character can acquire the ability that the event character of the event deck set by the user does not have when the event occurs. You may Further, when the user selects a specific section, the increase amount of the ability parameter when an event occurs may be larger than the normal increase amount of the event character incorporated in the event deck. Alternatively, for example, when the user selects a specific section, more coins, gacha points, etc. may be acquired than usual. In the above aspect, the section 2 is branched into the sections 3B and 4B, and the branch occurs in a part of the four sections. However, when one section ends, the branch always occurs. It may be configured. That is, branching may occur in all sections.

Also, as shown in FIG. 3, each section includes a plurality of turns. In the example shown in FIG. 3, each section is composed of 12 turns. The number of turns included in a section may vary from section to section.

For example, one turn corresponds to one week in the game. The scenario progresses by advancing the virtual time in the game for one week each time one turn ends. Note that one turn may correspond to one day or one month in the game.

When the scenario progresses to the end, the training of the main character is completed. The main character whose training has been completed is registered as an original character and can be used in the stadium part. After the main part ends, another successor character can be trained (that is, another original character is generated) by starting the success part from the beginning again.

In each turn of the main part, the user selects any one of the options regarding the action of the main character as the action to be performed by the main character.

FIG. 12 shows an example of a main command screen image in the success part. The main command screen image G800 shown in FIG. 12 is a screen image for selecting an action to be performed by the main character.

As shown in FIG. 12, the progress of the scenario is displayed in the upper area A810 of the main command screen image G800. For example, it shows the current section and the number of turns left until the current section ends. It also displays when the time in the game is. In the example shown in FIG. 12, "August 2nd week of 2nd year" is displayed, which means that the main character is a second year high school student and the present is the second week of August.

In addition, the motivation parameter of the main character is also displayed in the upper area A810. The motivation parameter is a parameter indicating the motivation (condition) of the main character. For example, the higher the value of the motivation parameter, the higher the motivation of the main character. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, the protagonist character practices each turn to give experience points to the protagonist character (see FIG. 13 ). At this time, the more motivated the main character is, the more experience points are given to the main character.

In addition, the number of treasure chests found in the current section is also displayed in the upper area A810. As will be described later, in each turn, a treasure chest finding event in which a dog finds and carries a treasure chest occurs based on predetermined probability information (see FIG. 14), and is discovered in this way. The number of treasure chests is displayed.

In addition, the upper area A810 includes a gauge area A811 indicating a physical strength parameter of the main character. For example, when the protagonist character practices, the value of the physical strength parameter decreases, and when the protagonist character rests practice, the value of the physical strength parameter increases (recovers). Note that the lower the value of the physical strength parameter, the higher the probability that the main character will be injured during practice (see FIG. 13).

Further, the upper area A810 includes a processing object P812. The process object P812 is associated with a process for displaying a menu screen image related to the success part, and when the user selects the process object P812, the menu screen image is displayed on the display unit 15. In the menu screen image, for example, the success part can be interrupted.

Further, as shown in FIG. 12, processing objects P821, P822, P823, and P824 are displayed in the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800.

The process object P821 is associated with the process of displaying the log of the success part (main part), and when the user selects the process object P821, the log is displayed.

The processing object P822 is associated with processing for turning on/off the auto function. The auto function is a function for automatically sending the text displayed on the display unit 15. In the main part, the text indicating the change contents of the parameters and the text indicating the conversation between the main character and another game character are displayed on the display unit 15 (see FIGS. 14 and 15). Normally, the user needs to tap the display unit 15 to send such text, but if the auto function is set to ON, the text is automatically displayed even if the user does not tap the display unit 15. Sent to. The user can turn on/off the auto function by selecting the processing object P822.

The processing object P823 is associated with processing for turning on/off the skip function. The skip function is a function of automatically sending the text displayed on the display unit 15 at a speed faster than the auto function. When the skip function is set to ON, the text is automatically sent at a faster speed than the auto function even if the user does not tap the display unit 15. The user can turn on/off the skip function by selecting the processing object P823. However, both the auto function and the skip function cannot be turned on, and only one of them can be turned on.

The processing object P824 is associated with processing for turning on/off the shortcut function. The shortcut function is a function that omits part of the text related to the event. For example, in the main part, an event in which the main character and another game character have a conversation may occur, and text indicating the conversation may be displayed. However, if the shortcut function is set to on, a part of the text may be displayed. Is omitted. The user can turn on/off the shortcut function by selecting the processing object P824.

Further, as shown in FIG. 12, the main command screen image G800 includes a hero's ability area A830. Values of various basic ability parameters of the hero character are displayed in the hero ability area A830. In the example shown in FIG. 12, the values of the trajectory parameter, the meat parameter, the power parameter, the running force parameter, the shoulder force parameter, and the defense force parameter of the main character are displayed.

The trajectory parameter indicates how high the batted ball of the main character rises. It indicates that the higher the value of the trajectory parameter, the higher the hit ball. The meet parameter indicates the meet force of the main character (ability to hit the bat on the ball thrown by the pitcher). The higher the value of the meat parameter, the higher the meat power. The power parameter indicates the power of the protagonist character (the ability of the pitcher to throw a ball thrown into the distance by hitting it with a bat). The higher the power parameter value, the easier it is for the ball hit by the bat to fly further.

The running power parameter indicates the foot speed of the main character. The higher the value of the running force parameter, the faster the foot is. The shoulder force parameter indicates the speed of the main character's throwing ball. The higher the value of the shoulder force parameter, the faster the pitching. The defense force parameter indicates the skill of the hero character in defense. The higher the value of the defense force parameter, the better the defense.

Since the example shown in FIG. 12 shows the case where the main character is a fielder, the basic ability parameter regarding the fielder ability is displayed in the main character ability area A830. When the protagonist character is a pitcher, basic ability parameters relating to the pitcher's ability, such as a ball speed parameter, a control parameter, and a stamina parameter, are displayed in the protagonist ability area A830.

Further, as shown in FIG. 12, the main command screen image G800 includes a command area A840. Processing objects P841, P842, P843, P844, P845, P846 are displayed in the command area A840.

The processing object P841 is associated with processing for causing the main character to practice, and the user can cause the main character to practice by selecting the processing object P841. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 13 and 14).

The process object P842 is associated with a process of resting the main character, and the user can rest the main character by selecting the process object P842. When the hero character is made to rest, the physical strength parameter of the hero character increases (recovers).

The process object P843 is associated with the process of letting the main character visit the hospital, and the user can make the main character visit the hospital by selecting the process object P843. For example, when the main character becomes sick or has a malfunction, the main character can be hospitalized to cure the sickness or malfunction.

The process object P844 is associated with a process of causing the main character to play, and the user can cause the main character to play by selecting the process object P844. When the main character is played, the motivation parameter of the main character increases.

The process object P845 is associated with a process of causing the protagonist character to make a date, and the user can cause the protagonist character to make a date by selecting the process object P845.

The processing object P846 is associated with processing for improving the ability of the main character, and the user can improve the ability of the main character by selecting the processing object P846. Details will be described later (see FIGS. 16 and 17).

FIG. 13 shows an example of the practice screen image. The practice screen image G900 shown in FIG. 13 is displayed on the display unit 15 when the processing object P841 of the main command screen image G800 is selected. The upper area A910 of the practice screen image G900 is the same as the upper area A810 of the main command screen image G800, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

As shown in FIG. 13, the practice screen image G900 includes a command area A920. In the command area A920, a plurality of processing objects P921, P922, P923, P924, P925, P926 corresponding to a plurality of practice items are displayed. The processing objects P921 to P926 are associated with processing for causing the main character to perform various types of practice.

The processing object P921 is associated with processing for causing the main character to perform batting practice. The processing object P922 is associated with processing for causing the main character to perform strength training. The processing object P923 is associated with processing for causing the main character to practice base running. The processing object P924 is associated with processing for causing the main character to practice shoulder strength training. The processing object P925 is associated with processing for causing the main character to perform defensive practice. The processing object P926 is associated with processing for causing the main character to perform mental practice.

For example, when the main character wants to practice base running, the user first selects the processing object P923. In this case, the processing object P923 is provisionally selected. In this state, the processing object P923 is displayed separately from the other processing objects P921, P922, P924 to P926, and it is indicated that the processing object P923 is provisionally selected. In the example shown in FIG. 13, the position of the processing object P923 in the vertical direction of the screen is different from the other processing objects P921, P922, P924 to P926, and the cursor object C927 is associated with the processing object P923. Further, in this state, the probability of being injured during the practice of the base running is displayed in association with the processing object P923. This probability is determined based on the value of the physical strength parameter of the main character. The smaller the value of the physical strength parameter of the hero character, the higher the probability of being injured during practice.

The practice screen image G900 also includes an experience point area A930. In the experience point area A930, the experience points of the hero character (that is, the experience points currently held by the hero character) are displayed.

In this embodiment, five types of experience points are set: muscle strength points, agility points, technical points, changing ball points, and mental points. FIG. 13 shows a case where the hero character's muscle strength points, agility points, technical points, changing ball points, and spirit points are 3 points, 5 points, 4 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively.

In the example shown in FIG. 13, “+4” and “+15” are displayed in association with the muscle strength point and the agility point, respectively. This indicates that when the temporarily selected practice item (running base practice) is executed, the muscular strength points of the main character increase by 4 points and the agility points increase by 15 points.

In the present embodiment, for each practice item, the type of experience points and the amount of increase in the practice point are determined. As described above, when a base run is practiced, the strength points and the agility points increase. Further, for example, when the batting practice is performed, the strength point, the skill point, and the mental point increase.

A level is set for each practice item. The level of the practice item increases when the number of times the practice is performed reaches a predetermined number. The higher the level of the practice item, the greater the amount of increase in experience points when the practice is performed.

The practice screen image G900 also includes a game character area A940. In the present embodiment, game characters other than the main character (teammates, directors, coaches, managers) are assigned to each practice item so that the game characters other than the main character may also practice or watch over. Directed to. In this regard, in the game character area A940, the game character assigned to the temporarily selected practice item is displayed. The game character assigned to each practice item changes every turn.

In the example shown in FIG. 13, since the running base practice is temporarily selected, the game character assigned to the running base practice is displayed in the game character area A940.

In the game character area A940, a gauge area A941 is displayed in association with the game character. The gauge area A941 shows the evaluation of the main character of the game character. The longer the gauge in the gauge area A941, the higher the evaluation of the main character of the game character. As will be described later, when the protagonist character performs a good practice assigned to the game character (that is, when the protagonist character does the same exercise as the game character), the evaluation of the protagonist character of the game character increases (Fig. 14).

In the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7, "initial evaluation 15" is set as the event bonus of the event character. The event bonus "initial evaluation 15" indicates that the evaluation of the event character with respect to the main character is initially set to a value (15) higher than the normal value (0) at the start of the main part.

The example shown in FIG. 13 shows a case where the event character (Yabe) incorporated in the event deck is assigned to base running practice. In other words, the case where the event character (Yabe) incorporated in the event deck is performing base run training together with the main character as a teammate.

The practice item (running base) displayed in association with the event character indicates the good practice of this event character. Therefore, the example shown in FIG. 13 shows a case where the event character is assigned to his/her own practice (running base practice). In other words, it shows a case where the event character is practicing his or her own good (running base).

In such a case, if the main character practices base running, the amount of experience points increases as compared to the normal case. In short, when the protagonist character practices the event character's strengths together with the event character, the amount of experience points increases more than in the normal case. That is, in the turn in which the event character set as the base practice is good at the base practice, the amount of experience gained by the main character performing the base practice is the good practice in the base practice. The number of set event characters will be greater than in turns that are not assigned to base running practice.

In addition, if the main character practices base running in the above case, a special tag bonus event may occur if the evaluation of the main character by the event character is higher than a predetermined standard. When the special tag bonus event occurs, the amount of experience points increases as compared to the case where the special tag bonus event does not occur. As described above, when the main character practices the event character who highly evaluates the main character, he/she is good at the event character.

In the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7, "special tag bonus 20%" is set as the event bonus of the event character. This event bonus “special tag bonus 20%” indicates that the amount of increase in experience points is increased by 20% when a special tag bonus event occurs.

In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 13, the event character is assigned to the same exercise item as the one's own practicing exercise, but the event character is not always assigned to the same exercise item as the one's own practicing exercise, and the own exercise It may be assigned to a different exercise item. Which practice item the event character is assigned to is determined for each turn based on predetermined probability information.

In this regard, in the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7, "special practice rate up 10%" is set as the event bonus of the event character. The event bonus “up to 10% of good practice rate” indicates that the probability that the event character is assigned to his/her own good practice is increased by 10%, and the event character is easily assigned to his/her good practice.

When the user further selects the processing object P923 while the running base practice is temporarily selected (that is, the cursor object C927 is pointing to the processing object P923), the running base practice is determined as an exercise item to be performed by the main character. , The protagonist character practices base running.

The practice screen image G900 also includes the processing object P950. The process object P950 is associated with a process for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P950, the main command screen image G800 is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 14 shows an example of the practice result screen image. When any of the practice items is decided as the practice item to be performed by the main character, the practice result screen image G1000 shown in FIG. 14 is displayed on the display unit 15. Since the upper area A1010 and the lower area A1020 of the practice result screen image G1000 are the same as the upper area A810 and the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800, the description thereof will be omitted here.

As shown in FIG. 14, the practice result screen image G1000 includes a text area A1030. Text indicating the practice result of the hero character is displayed in the text area A1030. That is, the text indicating the change contents of various parameters due to the main character's practice is displayed in the text area A1030.

FIG. 14 shows a practice result screen image G1000 displayed when the base running practice is selected in the state shown in FIG. 13 (that is, the processing object P923 is selected). In the text area A1030 shown in FIG. 14, the hero character has practiced a base running, so that the strength point is increased by 4 points, the agility point is increased by 15 points, and the physical strength parameter is decreased by 25 points. It is shown that the evaluation of the assigned main character of the event character (Yabe) has increased by 7 points.

In this embodiment, a treasure chest finding event occurs based on predetermined probability information when the main character practices. As described above, the treasure chest discovery event is an event in which a dog finds a treasure chest and carries it. When a treasure box finding event occurs, as shown in FIG. 14, the dog character C1040 who has found the treasure box is displayed on the practice result screen image G1000.

In addition, in each turn of the main part, an event related to the event character also occurs based on the predetermined probability information. For example, an event occurs in which the hero character has a conversation with the event character or special training is performed with the event character.

FIG. 15 shows an example of the event screen image. The event screen image G1100 shown in FIG. 15 is displayed on the display unit 15 when an event related to the event character occurs. Since the upper area A1110 and the lower area A1120 of the event screen image G1100 are the same as the upper area A810 and the lower area A820 of the main command screen image G800, the description thereof will be omitted here.

The event screen image G1100 shows that an event related to the event character has occurred. The event screen image G1100 includes an event information area A1130, and information (event name, etc.) regarding the occurred event is displayed in the event information area A1130. The event character C1140 that is the basis of the occurrence of the event is also displayed on the event screen image G1100.

The event screen image G1100 also includes a text area A1150. For example, text indicating a conversation between the main character and the event character is displayed in the text area A1150. After that, as shown in FIG. 15, the text indicating the change contents of various parameters due to the occurrence of the event is displayed in the text area A1150. Specifically, in the text area A1150, for example, an experience point for improving the ability parameter of the protagonist character is improved due to the occurrence of an event, and tips for the protagonist character to acquire special ability are provided. Shows that you have grabbed. The number of experience points and the special ability to grasp tips are influenced by the ability and level of the event character. For example, the larger the value of the event bonus shown in the second tab T422 of the event character screen image G400 of FIG. 7, the larger the value shown in the text area A1150. Alternatively, the higher the rarity of each event character, the larger the numerical value or the like shown in the text area A1150 may be. Further, when the practice selected by the user is the same as the good practice of the event character appearing at the event, the numerical value or the like shown in the text area A1150 may be increased.

In the main part, not only an event that occurs based on the probability information but also an event that always occurs when the progress of the game reaches the reference may be provided. For example, a predetermined event (for example, a match event or the like) may always occur when the scenario progresses for 10, 20, or 30 turns.

16 and 17 show an example of the ability change screen image. The ability change screen image G1200 shown in FIGS. 16 and 17 is a screen image for improving the ability of the main character, and is displayed on the display unit 15 when the processing object P846 of the main command screen image G800 is selected.

The ability change screen image G1200 includes a first area A1210 and a second area A1220. The first area A1210 includes a pitcher ability tab T1211 and a fielder ability tab T1212. The pitcher ability tab T1211 displays the changed contents of the basic ability parameters related to the pitcher ability, and the fielder ability tab T1212 displays the changed contents of the basic ability parameters related to the fielder ability.

As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the fielder ability tab T1212 has basic ability parameters related to the fielder ability: trajectory parameters, meet parameters, power parameters, running parameters, shoulder force parameters, defensive force parameters, and ball catching parameters. For each of the above, the value before the change and the value after the change are displayed. The trajectory parameter, the meat parameter, the power parameter, the running force parameter, the shoulder force parameter, and the defense force parameter are as described above (see FIG. 12). The catching parameter indicates how skillful the main character is in catching a ball. The higher the value of the catching parameter, the more skillful the catching is (the more difficult the error is).

The second area A1220 includes a basic ability tab T1221 and a special ability tab T1222. As shown in FIG. 16, the basic ability tab T1221 displays the experience points (muscle strength points, agility points, technical points, changing ball points, and mental points) currently held by the main character. FIG. 16 shows a state in which the hero character's current strength points, agility points, technical points, changing ball points, and mental points are 27 points, 20 points, 24 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively. ..

In the basic ability tab T1221, some or all of the experience points currently held by the hero character are exchanged for the basic ability parameters (ballistic parameter, meet parameter, power parameter, running force parameter, shoulder force parameter) of the hero character. It is possible to increase the values of the defensive power parameter and the catching parameter.

Further, in the basic ability tab T1221, the ability value necessary to increase the value of the basic ability parameter by 1 point from the current value is displayed in association with each basic ability parameter. The basic ability tab T1221 shown in FIG. 16 indicates that, for example, in order to increase the value of the trajectory parameter by 1 point from the current value, 30 muscle points, 30 technical points, and 30 mental points are required. Further, for example, it is shown that two muscle strength points, two agility points, and two technical points are required to increase the shoulder force parameter value by 1 point from the current value.

Furthermore, in the basic ability tab T1221, processing objects P1223-1, P1223-2, P1223-3, P1223-4, P1223-5, P1223-6, P1223-7 are displayed in association with each basic ability parameter. ..

For example, the processing object P1223-1 is associated with a trajectory parameter, and the processing object P1223-1 is associated with processing for increasing the trajectory parameter by 1 point in exchange for a predetermined experience point. By selecting the processing object P1223-1, the user can increase the ballistic parameter by 1 point from the current value in exchange for the strength point: 30 points, the technical point: 30 points, and the mental point: 30 points. .. For example, when the main character has all of these experience point points, when the user selects the processing object P1223-1, the trajectory parameter is increased by 1 point, and the experience point point required for it is the first point. It is subtracted from the "current experience point" of the two areas A1220. That is, if the protagonist character has a sufficient experience value, each time the user selects the processing object P1223-1, the trajectory parameter is gradually increased by one point, and the experience point point required for that is the second point. It will be gradually subtracted from the "current experience point" of the area A1220. However, as a matter of course, when the main character does not possess all of these experience points, the ballistic parameter cannot be increased. For example, even if the user has 40 muscle points and 70 technical points, if the mental points are 10, the ballistic parameter cannot be increased. In this way, for parameters that cannot be increased due to lack of experience points, the user may be notified of that fact. For example, in the first area A1210 and the second area A1220, the name of the corresponding parameter or the brightness of the entire line may be lowered.

When the value of the trajectory parameter increases by 1 point due to the user selecting the processing object P1223-1, that effect is displayed in the first area A1210.

Further, like the processing object P1223-1, the other processing objects P1223-2 to P1223-7 are associated with the meat parameter, the power parameter, the running force parameter, the shoulder force parameter, the defense force parameter, and the ball catching parameter, respectively. That is, the processing for increasing these parameters by 1 point is associated with the predetermined experience points.

When the user selects the special ability tab T1222 from the state shown in FIG. 16, the state is switched to the state shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 17, the special ability tab T1222 also displays the experience points (muscle strength points, agility points, technical points, changing ball points, and mental points) currently held by the main character. Similar to FIG. 16, in FIG. 17, the muscular strength point, the agility point, the technical point, the changing ball point, and the spirit point currently held by the main character are 27 points, 20 points, 24 points, 0 points, and 0 points, respectively. Shows the state.

In the special ability tab T1222, the hero character can acquire special ability in exchange for some or all of the experience points currently held by the hero character. That is, in the special ability tab T1222, the special ability parameter of the main character can be changed in exchange for some or all of the experience points currently held by the main character. Here, the special ability parameter is a parameter indicating whether or not the main character has acquired various special abilities.

In the example shown in FIG. 16, as the special abilities that the main character can acquire, there are "chance ○", "counterclockwise pitcher ○", "steal base ○", "running base ○", "ball throwing ○", and "injury resistance". ◎” and “Average hitter” are displayed.

“Chance ○” is a special ability that is strong against chances. If the hero character has acquired "Chance O", the basic ability of the hero character increases at the time of the chance. “Our left pitcher ○” is a special ability that is strong against left pitchers. If the protagonist character has acquired "a left pitcher", the basic ability of the protagonist character becomes high when the opponent pitcher is a left pitcher. "Stealing base" is a special ability that makes stealing good. If the hero character has acquired "theft base", the hero character is likely to succeed in stealing.

"Send ball" is a special ability that makes it difficult to send a ball. When the hero character has acquired "ball throwing", it is difficult for the hero character to throw the ball. "Difficult to injure ◎" is a special ability that rarely causes injury. If the hero character has acquired "Injury resistance", the hero character is rarely injured. "Average hitter" is a special ability that makes hitting balls easier. When the hero character has acquired the "average hitter", the hero character can easily hit.

Further, in the special ability tab T1222, the ability values necessary for the main character to acquire the special ability are displayed in association with each special ability. In the special ability tab T1222 shown in FIG. 17, for example, it is necessary to have 15 points, 30 points, and 105 points of agility points, technical points, and mental points, respectively, in order for the main character to acquire “chance ○”. Has been done. In addition, for example, it is shown that 48 muscular points, agility points, and technical points are required in order for the main character to acquire "ball throwing".

In addition, regarding the special ability that the main character has already acquired, the fact that the character has already acquired is displayed. In the special ability tab T1222 shown in FIG. 17, it is displayed that "injury difficulty ◎" has been acquired.

Further, in the special ability tab T1222, processing objects P1224-1, P1224-2, P1224-3, P12224-4, P1224-5, P1224-6 are displayed in association with each special ability.

For example, the processing object P1224-1 is associated with “chance ◯”, and the processing object P1224-1 is associated with processing for causing the main character to acquire “chance ◯” in exchange for a predetermined experience point. ing. By selecting the processing object P1224-1, the user can trade the agility point: 15 points, the technical point: 30 points, and the spirit point: 105 points to make the hero character acquire “chance ◯”. However, as a matter of course, if the protagonist character does not possess these experience points, the protagonist character cannot acquire the “chance ○”.

Note that, like the processing object P1224-1, the other processing objects P1224-2 to P1224-6 are respectively "counter-to-left pitcher ○", "steal base ○", "running base ○", "ball throwing ○", "average". It is associated with a "hitter", and is associated with a process for making the main character acquire these special abilities in exchange for a predetermined experience point. Further, since the main character has already acquired the special ability of “injured difficulty ◎”, the processing object is not associated with “injured difficulty ◎”.

In the example shown in FIG. 17, “Lv.1” is displayed in association with “running base ○”. Here, “Lv.1” indicates the knack level of “running base ○”.

The knack level indicates whether or not the hero character has a knack for acquiring special ability, and the degree of the knack the hero character has grabbed. The case where the knack level is 1 or more is a case where the hero character is grasping the knack for acquiring special ability, and the higher the knack level, the greater the degree of the knack the hero character grasps.

The higher the skill level, the less the experience points necessary for the main character to acquire special ability. In the state shown in FIG. 17, the experience points necessary for the main character to acquire "running base ○" are less than usual.

At the beginning of the main part, the skill level of each special ability is set to zero. For example, in the main part, an event (knock event) in which the event character teaches the protagonist character a trick of special ability may occur. When such a trick event occurs, the trick level of the special ability increases ( (See FIG. 15).

Note that in the event character screen image G400 shown in FIG. 7, "Katsu event bonus 20%" is set as the event bonus of the event character. When the knack event as described above occurs, the knack level of the special ability increases and the experience points of the hero character related to the special ability increase. The event bonus “Katsu event bonus 20%” indicates that the increase amount of experience points is 20% larger than usual in such a case.

As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the ability change screen image G1200 includes a processing object P1230. The processing object P1230 is associated with the processing for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P1230, the main command screen image G800 is displayed on the display unit 15.

The ability change screen image G1200 also includes a processing object P1240. The processing object P1240 is associated with processing for canceling the change in the ability of the main character and returning to the state before the change. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P1240, the ability of the main character returns to the state before the change.

The ability change screen image G1200 also includes a processing object P1250. The processing object P1250 is associated with processing for confirming the change in the ability of the main character. Therefore, when the user selects the processing object P1250, the ability of the hero character is fixed to the changed state.

When each section is completed, a section completion screen image is displayed on the display unit 15. FIG. 18 shows an example of the section completion screen.

As shown in FIG. 18, the section completion screen image G1300 displays a scenario in progress (for example, A high school) and a completed section (for example, section 2). The section completion screen image G1300 also displays the experience points (total experience points) obtained so far and the experience points (section experience points) obtained in the completed section. Furthermore, the section completion screen image G1300 also displays the reward (for example, coins or game items) obtained in the section.

In addition, after the section completion screen image G1300 is displayed, the next notice screen image may be displayed before the next section is started. FIG. 19 shows an example of the next notice screen image.

In this embodiment, after the section completion screen image G1300 is displayed and before the next section is started, an event that the treasure box discovery probability in the next section is higher than usual occurs based on predetermined probability information. To do. When the event has occurred, a notice screen image G1400 as shown in FIG. 19 is displayed to notify the user that the event has occurred.

When the four sections of the success part are completed as described above, the hero character has been trained and can be used as an original character in a match in the stadium part. For example, when the fourth section is completed, a screen image for confirming the ability parameter of the main character is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user uses the remaining experience value points to set the ability parameter of the main character. Increase or acquire special abilities. Furthermore, the appearance of the main character may be changed in this screen image. Then, when the user performs a predetermined confirming operation, the ability parameter of the main character is confirmed and registered as the original character owned by the user. When registered as the original character, the user cannot change the ability parameter. After that, the user can confirm the newly registered original character's ability parameter and the like, or can add the order to the later-described order to participate in the game.

Also, as shown in FIG. 3, the main part is composed of four sections, and each section is composed of twelve turns, and if the user tries to continuously execute all the turns, the time corresponding to that is taken. It will take time and effort. Therefore, in the present embodiment, by dividing the main part into four sections, it is possible to give the motivation to end the game or take a break at the end of the section, and the user plays the success part. It is possible to reduce the difficulty of the situation. Furthermore, by dividing the main part into a plurality of sections, the next section can be branched at the end of the section, which makes it possible to diversify the game play.

The user plays four sections in raising the main character, but as shown in FIG. 18, the user is informed of information such as experience points in the section completion screen image G1300 when the sections are cleared. Therefore, even if the game includes a relatively large number of turns such as the success part, the user can play the game without getting tired or feeling delayed in the middle of the game. That is, when notifying the user of information such as experience points for the first time after the success part ends, the user cannot fully grasp the training situation of the hero character during the success part, and gets tired on the way. However, if the experience point is notified at the end of the section, the user can be informed of the training situation frequently, so that it is possible to prevent getting tired or feeling the delay in the middle. ..

Further, as shown in FIG. 19, in the notice screen image G1400, since the announcement regarding the next section can be made, the motivation to try the next section can be given to the user, and the success on the way of the user is possible. It is possible to avoid a situation where the part is interrupted.

Next, before explaining the stadium part, a process for confirming the event character owned by the user, the organization of the event deck, and the like will be described.

When the user selects the processing object P123 in the home screen image G100 and the like shown in FIG. 2, an event character menu screen image for performing various operations related to the event character is displayed on the display unit 15. FIG. 20 shows an example of an event character menu screen image. The upper area A1510, the lower area A1520, and the processing object P130 in the event character menu screen image G1500 illustrated in FIG. 20 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100. The description is omitted here. Further, the processing object P1530 in the event character menu screen image G1500 is for returning to the screen image (that is, the home screen image G100) that was displayed immediately before, like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. is there.

The event character menu screen image G1500 shown in FIG. 20 includes processing objects P1540 to P1590. The processing object P1540 is associated with the processing for organizing the event deck. When the user selects the processing object P1540, an event deck edit screen image for editing the event deck is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 21 is an example of an event deck edit screen image. Since the upper area A1610, the lower area A1620, and the processing object P130 in the event deck edit screen image G1600 shown in FIG. 21 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, The description is omitted here. Further, the processing object P1630 in the event deck edit screen image G1600 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the event character menu screen image G1500), like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. It is a thing.

As shown in FIG. 21, the event deck edit screen image G1600 includes an event deck edit area A1640. Note that the contents displayed in the event deck editing area A1640 are omitted in FIG. 21, and the contents displayed in the event deck editing area A1640 are shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 22, areas A1641 and A1642 processing objects P1642 and P1643 of the event deck editing screen image G1600, setting frames A1644-1 to A1644-5, and good practice area A1646 are respectively in the event deck setting screen image G300. The areas A341 and A342, the processing objects P342 and P343, the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5, and the good practice area A346 are the same as those in the areas A341 and A342, and thus the description thereof is omitted here. However, since the event deck edit screen image G1600 is not before the start of the success part, the one corresponding to the setting frame A345 for incorporating the helper into the event deck is not provided.

In the present embodiment, the user can own a plurality (for example, 5) of event decks. The number of event decks owned by the user may be fixed or may be increased by consuming power stones. The number of event decks may be increased by completing the training of the main character in the success part. For example, the event deck may be increased by 1 when the user completes the training of a predetermined number (for example, 3) of the protagonist character, or the event deck becomes 1 when the user completes the training of one protagonist character. May be increased. At this time, an upper limit (for example, up to 7) may be set for the number of event decks. The number of event decks given to the user at the start of the game may be set to 1, for example, and may be gradually increased by the above processing. In the event deck edit screen image G1600, each of these event decks can be edited. For example, a user sets an event character that is a good practice for fielders in the event deck for training fielders, and a good practice for pitchers in the event deck for training pitchers. Set an event character. In addition, you can use it to set only female event characters on the event deck, or set only male event characters on the event deck, depending on the main character training policy and the type of scenario in the success part. Different usage is possible. Further, for example, the user sets a special effect character, which will be described in detail later, on the event deck used in the limited time event.

Returning to FIG. 20, the processing object P1560 is associated with processing for selling the event character. When the user selects the processing object P1560, unnecessary event characters can be sold and coins can be acquired. Note that the sold event character is not sold to other users, and the event character is simply deleted from the list owned by the user. That is, the “sale” here means that the event character is released in exchange for a coin.

The processing object P1570 is associated with processing for confirming the list of event characters owned by the user. When the user selects the processing object P1570, a list of event characters owned by the user is displayed on the display unit 15. For example, when the user selects a processing object of the event character displayed in the list of event characters, the event character screen image G400 can be displayed.

The processing object P1580 is associated with processing for confirming the event character picture book. The picture book is a list of event characters existing in the game. When the user selects the processing object P1580, the pictorial book is displayed on the display unit 15. In the illustrated book, it is possible to distinguish event characters that the user has owned and event characters that the user has not owned yet. In addition, in the illustrated book, information (for example, an image or a name) of an event character that has not been owned may be hidden.

The processing object P1590 is associated with processing for expanding the list of event characters. In this embodiment, an upper limit is set on the number of event characters that the user can own. For example, the user can increase the maximum number of event characters that the user can own by consuming the power stone.

The processing object P1550 is associated with processing for strengthening the event character. The strengthening here means increasing the level of the event character, which is different from the training of the main character in the success part. The event character is strengthened in order to improve the effect generated in the success part when the event character is set in the event deck (that is, to make the training of the main character efficient). In this embodiment, so-called game character composition is performed. That is, the event character to be strengthened (hereinafter referred to as a base character) can be strengthened by consuming another event character (hereinafter referred to as a material character). When the user selects the processing object P1540, a base character selection screen image for selecting a base character is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 23 shows an example of the base character selection screen image. Since the upper area A1710, the lower area A1720, and the processing object P130 in the base character selection screen image G1700 shown in FIG. 23 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, The description is omitted here. Further, the processing object P1730 in the base character selection screen image G1700 is similar to the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200 for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the event character menu screen image G1500). It is a thing.

The base character selection screen image G1700 includes an event character list area A1740. The event character list area A1740 is similar to the event character list area A640 of the event character change screen image G600. When the user selects any of the event characters displayed in the event character list area A1740 as a base character, a strengthening screen image for strengthening the base character is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 24 shows an example of the enhanced screen image. Here, the enhanced screen image G1800 displayed when “Hayakawa” whose rarity is “R” is selected as the base character is shown. Since the upper area A1810, the lower area A1820, and the processing object P130 in the enhanced screen image G1800 shown in FIG. 24 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, here, The description is omitted. Further, the processing object P1830 in the strengthened screen image G1800 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the base character selection screen image G1700), like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. is there.

In the example shown in FIG. 24, the base character area A1840 includes a gauge area A1841. In the gauge area A1841, the current experience value of the base character and the acquired experience value required for the next level can be identified.

The material character area A1850 is provided with ten setting frames for setting a material character. When the user selects any of the setting frames of the material character area A1850, the material character selection screen image for selecting the material character is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 25 shows an example of the material character selection screen image. Since the upper area A1910, the lower area A1920, and the processing object P130 in the material character selection screen image G1900 shown in FIG. 25 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, The description is omitted here. In addition, the processing object P1930 in the material character selection screen image G1900 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the enhanced screen image G1800), like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. is there.

In the example shown in FIG. 25, the material character selection screen image G1900 includes an event character list area A1940. The event character list area A1940 is similar to the event character list area A640 of the event character change screen image G600. However, as shown in FIG. 25, event characters other than the base character among the event characters owned by the user are displayed in the event character list area A1940. Further, the event character set in the event deck (in FIG. 25, the event character displayed as “in use”) or the locked event character may not be selected as the material character.

Further, in the present embodiment, if the same event character as the base character is set as the material character, the highest level of the base character can be increased with a given probability. In the event character list area A1940, this probability is displayed overlaid on the event character. For example, if "Hayakawa" with rarity "R" is selected as the material character, the maximum level of "Hayakawa" of the base character increases with 100% probability, and "Hayakawa" with rarity "PN" is selected as the material character. Then, the maximum level of the base character "Hayakawa" increases with a probability of 30%. In the present embodiment, the probability that the highest level will increase is determined based on the rarity of the base character and the rarity of the material character. In other words, the probability that the highest level will increase is determined based on the difference in relative rarity between the base character and the material character. For example, when selecting a material character having a rarity equal to or higher than that of the base character, the probability is 100%, and when selecting a material character having a rarity lower than that of the base character, the probability is less than 100%. For example, for a material character whose rarity is two or more steps lower than that of the base character, even if it has the same name as the base character, the probability that the highest level will increase may be 0%. Further, for example, the higher the rarity of the base character, the lower the probability may be. By doing so, it is possible to suppress the probability that the maximum level will increase for a heavy user who owns a highly rare base character. The probability may increase as the material character's rarity increases. Further, although the highest level is increased by one, the probability may be increased as the current highest level is increased from the initial value. That is, the higher the number of times the highest level of the base character is increased, the higher the probability that the highest level will increase in the future may be.

The user selects 10 or less as a material character from the event characters displayed in the event character list area A1940. Here, the case where a plurality of material characters can be collectively selected at once in the event character list area A1940 will be described, but the material characters may be selected one by one. If the user selects the event character that has already been selected as the material character, the selection as the material character can be canceled.

The material character selection screen image G1900 includes an area A1950 for displaying a level increased when the base character is strengthened with the currently selected material character and a coin required for the strengthening. The experience value that the base character can obtain differs depending on the material character. For example, the higher the rarity of the material character, the more experience points and necessary coins can be acquired. The level and coins shown in the area A1950 are calculated by calculating the experience value that can be acquired by the currently selected material character and the necessary coins. When the user selects or removes a material character from the event character list area A1940, the display in the area A1950 is updated.

Further, the material character selection screen image G1900 includes processing objects P1960 and P1970. The processing object P1970 is associated with the processing for canceling the selection of the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1970, all the material characters are deselected and the material characters can be selected again. On the other hand, the process object P1960 is associated with the process of completing the selection of the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1960, the screen returns to the enhanced screen image G1800.

FIG. 26 shows the enhancement screen image G1800 when the material character is selected. As shown in FIG. 26, in the material character area 1850, the material character selected in the event character list area A1940 of the material character selection screen image G1900 is displayed. In the example of FIG. 26, the same two “Hayakawa” and “Tsuruya” as the base character are selected as the material characters. As shown in FIG. 26, since the maximum level of the base character “Hayakawa” can be increased by using the two “Hayakawa” of the material character, the probability is displayed by being superimposed on the “Hayakawa” of the material character. ing. On the other hand, "Tsuruya" is not the base character "Hayakawa", and even if it is used as a material character, the maximum level of "Hayakawa" cannot be increased, so the probability is not displayed. In this way, in the material character area 1850, it is possible to distinguish a material character whose maximum level can be increased and a material character whose maximum level cannot be increased before strengthening the base character, Furthermore, the probability can be identified. When the user selects a material character, the level that increases when the base character is strengthened with the current material character and the coins required for strengthening are displayed in the base character area A1840 as in the area A1950. ing.

Further, the enhanced screen image G1800 includes processing objects P1860 and P1870. The processing object P1870 is associated with the processing for canceling the selection of the material character. When the user selects the processing object P1870, the selection of the material character is canceled and the selection of the material character can be redone. On the other hand, the processing object P1860 is associated with the processing for executing the enhancement of the base character. When the user selects the processing object P1860, a predetermined screen effect is executed, and then a strengthening result window for displaying the strengthening result of the base character is displayed on the display unit 15. If the number of coins held by the user is smaller than the number of coins required to strengthen the base character, the strengthening will not be executed even if the user selects the processing object P1860. In this case, the processing object P1860 may be grayed out so that it cannot be selected.

FIG. 27 shows the enhancement result window. As shown in FIG. 27, the reinforcement result window G2000 displays the experience value acquired by the base character, the change in the level of the base character, the change in the maximum level of the base character, and the like. In the example shown in FIG. 27, the base character is at the level indicated by the base character area A1840. Further, when there are a plurality of material characters capable of increasing the maximum level of the base character, it is determined whether or not the maximum level can be increased based on a predetermined probability for each of the plurality of material characters. To be done. Here, "Hayakawa", which has a 100% probability of increasing the highest level of the base character, and 30% of Hayakawa, have been selected as the material characters, so the highest level of the base character surely increases by 1 and has a 30% probability. Will increase by one more. In the example shown in FIG. 27, 30% of “Hayakawa” also succeeded, and the maximum level of the base character increased by two.

The processing object P2010 is associated with processing for returning to the enhanced screen image G1800. When the user selects the processing object P2010, the user may directly return to the enhanced screen image G1800, or when the processing object P441 is selected after the event character screen image G400 of the base character is displayed, the enhanced screen is displayed. You may make it return to the image G1800.

Next, the stadium part will be described. In the stadium part, the user can play a game using the original character trained in the success part. In the stadium part, there are games that can be played at any time period (hereinafter referred to as normal games) and games that can be played for a limited time period (hereinafter referred to as event limited event games).

The user edits the order of the match when playing the match in the stadium part. An order is a combination of original characters that a user participates in in a match among the original characters that the user owns. Here, it is possible to edit the order for the regular game and the order for the limited time event game. When the user selects the processing object P122 on the home screen image G100 or the like in FIG. 2, a my team menu screen image for editing an order is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 28 shows a My Team menu screen image. Since the upper area A2110, the lower area A2120, and the processing object P130 in the my team menu screen image G2100 shown in FIG. 28 are the same as the upper area A110, the lower area A120, and the processing object P130 in the home screen image G100, The description is omitted here. Further, the processing object P2130 in the my team menu screen image G2100 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the home screen image G100 etc.) like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200. Is.

The my team menu screen image G2100 shown in FIG. 28 includes processing objects P2140 to P2170. The processing object P2140 is associated with processing for editing an order in a normal game. When the user selects the processing object P2040, a normal order edit screen image for editing an order in a normal game is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 29 shows a normal order edit screen image. As shown in FIG. 29, the normal order edit screen image G2200 includes a starting order area A2210 and a reserve player area A2220. The starting order area A2210 is used to specify, among the original characters owned by the user, the original character of the starting order that appears at the start of the match. The reserve player area A2220 is for designating, among the original characters owned by the user, a reserve original character that does not participate at the start of the game but can participate from the middle.

It should be noted that when the user taps the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 and the reserve player area A2220, an outline of the ability or the like of the original character may be displayed. Further, when the user long-presses the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 and the reserve player area A2220, details such as the ability of the original character may be displayed.

For example, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in the starting order area A2210 to the reserve player area A2220, this original character is displayed in the reserve player area A2220, and the original character of the drop destination is the starting order area A2210. Displayed in. Conversely, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in the reserved player area A2220 onto the starting order area A2210, the original character is displayed in the starting order area A2210, and the original character of the drop destination is the reserved player area. It is displayed on A2220. In this way, the user can replace the starting order original character with the copy original character.

Further, for example, when the user drags and drops the original character displayed in either the starting order area A2210 or the reserve player area A2220 onto the drag area A2230, a list of original characters that are neither starting order nor reserve is shown. The screen image is displayed on the display unit 15. When the user selects an original character to be placed in the order from this screen image, the original character and the original character dropped in the drag area A2230 can be exchanged.

The processing object P2240 is associated with processing for automatically setting an order. When the user selects the processing object P2240, the order is automatically set so that the optimum combination of the original characters owned by the user is obtained. For example, the order is automatically set so that the original character having a high ability parameter is preferentially placed in the order. Further, for example, the order is automatically set so that the original character enters the order in descending order of the total amount of experience points acquired in the success part.

The processing object P2250 is associated with processing for returning the order to the original state. The original state is the time before the order is changed in the normal order edit screen image G2200. When the user selects the processing object P2250, the order returns to the time when the normal order edit screen image G2200 is displayed.

The total power area A2260 shows the total power in the current order. The meaning of the total power is the same as that described in the area A115 of the home screen image G100. That is, the total strength is a value calculated from the ability parameter of the original character in the order, and the higher this value, the easier it is to win the game. When the order is changed, the numerical value indicated by the total power area A2260 also changes.

The processing object P2270 is associated with the processing for setting the pitcher's method of use. When the user selects the processing object P2270, a screen image for setting the pitcher's usage method among the original characters owned by the user is displayed on the display unit 15. In this screen image, it is possible to specify an original character that can participate in the match among the original characters of the pitcher. Further, among the original characters that can participate in the game, it is possible to specify the method of using as a pitcher (starter/relay/suppress). Alternatively, in order to participate in a match as a pitcher, when the pitching interval must be increased by a predetermined number of matches, the next match that can be entered is displayed.

The processing object P2280 is for returning to the screen image displayed immediately before (that is, the my team menu screen image G2100), like the processing object P230 in the hero registration screen image G200.

Returning to FIG. 28, the processing object P2150 is associated with processing for editing the order of the game in the limited time event. When the user selects the processing object P2150, a limited time order edit screen image for editing the order of the game at the limited time event is displayed on the display unit 15.

FIG. 30 shows a limited time order edit screen image. The starting order area A2310, the reserve player area A2320, the drag area A2330, the processing objects P2350, P2370, P2380, and the total force area A2360 of the limited time order edit screen image G2300 illustrated in FIG. 30 are the normal order edit screen image G2200, respectively. The same as the starting order area A2210, the reserve player area A2220, the drag area A2230, the processing objects P2250, P2270, P2280, and the total strength area A2260. However, the limited-time order edit screen image G2300 is different from the normal order edit screen image G2200 in that a score bonus is displayed in the starting order area A2310.

Here, the score bonus will be described. In the limited-time event, when a match is placed by placing an original character trained by setting a specific event character (hereinafter referred to as a special effect character) on the event deck and placing a match, a score bonus is given to increase the score that can be acquired after the match. It has become so. It can be said that the special effect character is an event character in which an effect that does not occur in the normal period occurs in a specific period. That is, the special effect character can be used in the normal period other than the specific period, but the effect generated in the specific period does not occur in the normal period. Whether or not the event character is the special effect character may be identified by the event deck setting screen image G300, the event character changing screen image G600, or the like.

FIG. 31 shows an example of the event deck setting screen image G600 during the limited time event. As shown in FIG. 31, the event character, which is the special effect character, in the event character list area A640 displays information indicating the degree of the effect. For example, it is shown that a score bonus of "5%" occurs when an original character trained by putting "Yamaguchi" in the event deck is used in the game. Similarly, if you use an original character trained by putting "Tsuruya" with a rarity of "R" in the event deck in the game, a score bonus of "3%" will be generated, and a "Tsuruya" of rarity will be It is shown that the score bonus of “2%” occurs when the original character trained by putting “” in the event deck is used in the game. In this way, the degree of the score bonus may change depending on the rarity.

If the event deck contains multiple special effect characters, and the original character trained using this event deck is used in a limited-time event match, the total value of the score bonuses for each of these multiple special effect characters will be increased. The score may be increased by that amount, or only the character having the highest score bonus may be reflected among the plurality of special effect characters.

Further, when the special effect character is incorporated in the event deck and the success part is played, an effect corresponding to the special effect character may be generated, and the main character may be advantageously trained. Further, the effect of the success part may be generated only for a specific period. That is, the effect generated by the special effect character is not limited to the stadium part, but may be generated in the success part.

FIG. 32 shows an example of the event deck setting area A340 of the event deck setting screen image G300 during the limited time event. As shown in FIG. 32, information indicating the degree of the effect is displayed in the setting frame A344-4 in which the event character that is the special effect character is incorporated in the event character list area A640. That is, since the special effect character "Yamaguchi" is incorporated in the setting frame A344-4, "5%" which is the score bonus of "Yamaguchi" is displayed. When the event deck includes a plurality of special effect characters, the total value of the score bonuses generated by the plurality of special effect characters may be displayed in the event deck setting area A340.

In the limited time event, when the cumulative value of the scores acquired by the user exceeds the reference value, the user is rewarded. As the reference value, a plurality of reference values may be set stepwise. Then, the more the reference value is, the better the reward given when the reference value is exceeded. Furthermore, the ranking of the user may be determined based on the cumulative value of the scores when the limited-time event ends, and the user may be given a reward according to the ranking.

FIG. 33 shows conditions for generating a score bonus. In the example of FIG. 33, the special effect characters are “E3” and “E8”. As shown in FIG. 33, since the original character “P1” includes “E3” in the event deck used in the success part, a score bonus is generated when the original character “P1” is included in the order of the game for the limited time event. Similarly, since the original character "P3" includes "E3" and "E8" in the event deck used in the success part, a score bonus is generated when the original character "P3" is included in the order of the game of the limited time event. On the other hand, the original character "P2" does not include the special effect character in the event deck used in the success part, and therefore the score bonus does not occur even if the original character "P2" is included in the order of the game for the limited time event.

Returning to FIG. 30, in the starting order area A2310, the value of the score bonus for each original character placed in the order and the total value of the score bonus that can occur in the current order are displayed. The score bonus may be generated only on the original character of the starting order, or may be generated on both the original characters of the starting order and the copy.

The processing object P2340 is similar to the processing object P2240 in that it is for automatically determining an order. However, when the user selects the processing object P2340, it is possible to select whether to prioritize the score bonus to determine the order or prioritize the ability to determine the order. When the score bonus is prioritized to determine the order, the order is automatically determined by prioritizing the value of the score bonus assigned to the original character. When the ability is prioritized, it is the same as when the processing object P2240 is selected.

Returning to FIG. 28, the processing object P2160 is associated with processing for displaying a list of original characters owned by the user. The user can check the list of original characters owned by the user before editing the order. The processing object P2170 is associated with processing for editing the original character owned by the user. The user can edit the name and appearance of the original character. However, the ability parameters of the original character for which the success part has been trained are fixed and cannot be edited.

The user will edit the order as described above and play the stadium part. For example, in the home screen image G100 shown in FIG. 2, when the user selects the processing object P150, the home screen image G100 is switched to the stadium part display.

FIG. 34 shows the home screen image G100 when the processing object P150 is selected. The processing object P151 shown in FIG. 34 is associated with processing for playing a normal match, and the processing object P152 is associated with processing for playing a match for a limited time event. When the user selects one of the processing objects P151 and P152, the selected processing object is displayed in the center of the home screen image G100.

In the example shown in FIG. 34, when the user selects the processing object P151 while the processing object P151 is displayed in the center, a normal game is executed. On the other hand, when the processing object P152 is displayed in the center and the user selects the processing object P152, the game of the limited time event is executed. As described below, the flow of the match between the regular match and the limited-time event is the same.

FIG. 35 shows the flow of a match of a normal match and a limited time event. As shown in FIG. 35, when the user selects the processing objects P151 and P152, a screen image showing a plurality of opponent candidates is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user selects an opponent from the plurality of opponent candidates. Select (S2). The opponent candidates are teams of other users. For example, a team of another user similar to the rank of the user or the comprehensive strength of the team is selected as an opponent candidate.

When the opponent is selected, a screen image for changing the order is displayed on the display unit 15, and the user can change the contents of the order of the normal game or the order of the game of the limited time event ( S4). This screen image is the same as the normal order edit screen image G2200 or the limited time order edit screen image G2300.

When the order of the game is decided, the tone of the original character included in the order is decided (S6). The tone is randomly assigned to each original character whose order is one of a plurality of stages (for example, 6 stages). The better the condition, the better the ability parameters of the original character, and the more you can play in the game.

The user selects one of the game items owned by the user to be used in the game (S8). The game items that can be selected here are those that advance the game favorably and increase the score that can be acquired in the game.

When the user selects a game item, the game starts (S10). The game may automatically proceed from the start to the end, or the user may operate the original character who is playing only when a predetermined scene is reached. Further, the user may be allowed to operate all the scenes of the game.

When the match ends, a screen image showing the result of the match is displayed on the display unit 15 (S12). As a result of the match, the win or loss of the match, the score of each team, and the score acquired by the user are displayed on the screen image. The score is determined based on the content and result of the match. However, a better score is assigned by the user than in the case where the game is automatically advanced. For example, when the original character hits or hits a home run based on the user's operation, the user is given a higher score than when the game automatically advances and the same original character hits or hits a home run. It is supposed to be done.

When the result of the match is displayed, the latest ranking of the user is displayed on the display unit 15 (S14). The ranking may be determined based on the cumulative value of the scores acquired in the match, or may be determined based on the maximum value of the scores acquired in the current or past matches. As described above, in the case of a game for a limited time event, if the order includes the original character to which the score bonus is given, the score calculated by the same calculation method as the normal game increases by the score bonus. It will be. For example, when a game of a limited time event is played in the order shown in FIG. 30, the score is increased by 14% compared with the case where the same result is left in a normal game.

As described above, the user aims to play the stadium part to obtain a score and raise the ranking. The ranking is changed every predetermined period. The predetermined period may be one week, one day or one month. Further, the highest score given by each user in the play of the stadium part performed during a predetermined period (for example, one week) may be confirmed on the display unit 15. When each user gives the highest score within the predetermined period, the score displayed on the display unit 15 is overwritten. When the predetermined period ends, the score is cleared and the highest score in the next predetermined period is newly displayed. Then, in the present embodiment, when the user overtakes the highest score given during the predetermined period by the user of the friend, the challenge letter is automatically received from the friend. The arrival of the challenge letter from a friend is notified to the user by being displayed as a processing object P170 in FIG. In addition, when challenge letters arrive from a plurality of friends, the number of challenge letters may be notified on the same screen. The friend's user terminal 10 can confirm that the challenge has been sent to the user. That is, the user terminal 10 on the friend side notifies the friend that the challenge has been sent. The challenge letter is not limited to the score, and may be sent when some evaluation or evaluation value in the game, such as ranking, is omitted. Alternatively, the score values can be set to the same value, or the ranking can be reached when the user is overtaken by the friends. Further, the challenge exchange may be performed for all the friends of a certain user or for only some of the friends. In this case, for example, only friends whose ranks are the same as or close to the user's rank may be targeted. Alternatively, based on the degree of intimacy between the user and the friend (for example, set based on the number of battles, the history of chats, etc.), only friends with a certain degree of intimacy may be targeted for the challenge.

FIG. 36 is an explanatory diagram of a challenge. The t-axis shown in FIG. 36 is a time axis. Here, it is assumed that the user A and the user B have a friendship relationship. At a certain time t1, the user A has a score of 150,000 points, and at a time t2 after the time t1, the user B has a score of 120,000 points. When the user B plays the stadium part and obtains a score of 180,000 points to overtake the user A, the challenge letter is automatically sent from the user B to the user A.

When the challenge letter is sent, as shown in FIG. 34, a processing object P170 for competing with the friend who sent the challenge letter is displayed on home screen image G100. Information (user name, etc.) by which the friend who sent the challenge letter can be recognized may be displayed on the processing object P170. Here, when a challenge letter has been received from a plurality of friends, the number of challenge letters may be displayed in the vicinity of or on the processed object P170. For example, when three challenge letters have arrived, the number 3 is displayed. Note that the method of notifying the number of challenge letters is not limited to the method of displaying a number, and it may be notified by the number of images. When the user selects the processing object P170, a battle with the friend who sent the challenge letter is performed. It should be noted that this competition is mainly performed for the purpose of promoting competition with friends, so that the match ticket may not be consumed or the medal or the like may not be acquired.

The challenge may be restricted so that a new challenge cannot be sent to the same friend until a predetermined time elapses. For example, a new challenge may be sent only after 3 hours or more have passed. Further, the challenge letter may be provided with an expiration date (for example, one day) in which it can be used. The expiration date is set in the challenge letter so that the number of challenge letters for each user does not become too large. After the expiration date, the processing object P170 of FIG. 34 is deleted. When there are a plurality of challenge letters, the number of challenge letters written together with the processing object P170 is sequentially decreased each time the expiration date of each challenge letter expires. By doing so, it is possible to prevent a large number of challenges from being accumulated for the user.

In addition, in the present embodiment, when a friend overtakes the user's score, a challenge arrives and the player can compete with the friend to give him the opportunity to withdraw his friend. You may give it. The privilege may be for the user to give a good score in the stadium part. In other words, any privilege that affects the relationship (difference) between the score of the user and the score of the friend may be used. For example, the user may be given a match ticket to give a chance to play a match, thereby giving the friend a chance to withdraw the score. Besides, for example, it may be a privilege for the user to give a good score by advancing the game in an advantageous manner. In this case, it may be a game item that decreases the ability parameter of the opponent or a game item that increases the ability parameter of the user's original character. By using these game items, the opponent becomes weaker and the user's original character becomes stronger, so that the user can easily obtain a good score in the match. That is, by giving these game items to the user, the user may be given an opportunity to withdraw a friend's score.

As described above, the game system 1 has various techniques. For example, by displaying the bonus detail screen image G500, the game system 1 produces the effect of the event character level and the success part. It has technology that makes it possible to easily understand the correspondence relationship between and. Hereinafter, this technology is referred to as the first technology.

In addition, the game system 1 sets various event characters on the event deck by adding a score bonus when the special character is set on the event deck and the original character trained is placed in an order to play a game for a limited time event. Has motivational technology. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as the second technique.

In addition, the game system 1 displays the special practice of the event character set on the event deck in the special practice areas A346 and A1646, so that which practice can be selected in the success part is advantageous in training the event deck. It has technology that makes it easy to know if there is something. Hereinafter, this technique is referred to as the third technique.

In addition, when the user selects a normal scenario, the game system 1 prevents the original character from acquiring the super-special ability unless the event character with high rarity is set in the event deck, and the user is limited to a limited time period. When a scenario is selected, the original character has a technique that enables it to acquire super-special abilities even if this event character is not set in the event deck. Hereinafter, this technology is referred to as the fourth technology.

In addition, the game system 1 has a technique of promoting competition between users by receiving a challenge letter when a user overtakes a score by a friend user. Hereinafter, this technology is referred to as the fifth technology.

Hereinafter, the details of the first technology to the fifth technology will be mainly described.

[3. Functions realized in game system 1]
FIG. 37 is a functional block diagram showing functions related to the present invention among the functions realized by the game system 1. In the present embodiment, a case will be described in which the main processing related to the game is executed by the user terminal 10. However, as described in a modification below, the main processing related to the game is executed by the server 30. Good.

Of the functions implemented in the server 30, the data storage unit 3000 is implemented mainly by the storage unit 32, and the other functions are implemented mainly by the control unit 31. Of the functions implemented in the user terminal 10, the individual data storage unit 1000 is implemented mainly by the storage unit 12, and the other functions are implemented mainly by the control unit 11.

First, the functions common to the first technology to the fifth technology will be described, and then the functions related to each of the first technology to the fifth technology will be described. Here, the data storage unit 3000, the processing unit 3010, the individual data storage unit 1000, and the request unit 1010 will be described as the functions common to the first technology to the fifth technology.

The data storage unit 3000 stores data necessary for a game executed by the game system 1. Here, the user table TBL301, the event character table TBL302, the event deck table TBL303, the original character table TBL304, and the order table TBL305 will be described as an example of the data stored in the data storage unit 3000.

FIG. 38 shows an example of the user table TBL301. As shown in FIG. 38, the user table TBL301 is a data table showing information about each user. For example, the user table TBL301 includes the fields described below.

The “user ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the user. The “profile” field indicates user registration information such as a user name and a self-introduction sentence.

The “friend” field indicates identification information for identifying another user who has a friendship with the user. For example, each user can make a friend request to have a friendship with another user. For example, the user A performs an operation for making a friend application at the end of the success part to the user B who owns the event character set in the event deck as a helper in the success part. When the user B performs an operation for approving the friend application, the user A and the user B have a friendship relationship, the user ID of the user B is stored in the “friend” field of the user A, and the “friend” field of the user B is stored. The user ID of user A is stored. The operation for approving the friend application can be performed, for example, from a screen image displayed when the processing object P130 is selected.

The “user parameter” field indicates various parameters associated with the user. This parameter may be used for the success part or the stadium part, or may be for acquiring a game item. For example, the “user parameter” field indicates success points, match tickets, power stones, mini stones (game items that can be exchanged for power stones when a predetermined number are collected), coins, gacha points, and medals. It should be noted that parameters such as success points and match tickets that recover after a lapse of a predetermined time may be stored with the remaining time until recovery. Alternatively, for example, the rank of the current order and the total power of the order may be stored in the “user parameter” field.

The "item" field indicates a game item owned by the user. The "stadium" field shows the result (battle record) of the match in the stadium part, the score acquired by the user (cumulative score/highest score), and the current ranking of the user. In this embodiment, since there are a normal game and a game of a limited time event, the result, the score, and the ranking are stored for each. The “challenge” field indicates the game task and the achievement status of the user in the challenge part.

The “challenge” field indicates the challenge received by the user from a friend. When the user receives a challenge from a friend, the user ID of the friend is stored in the “challenge” field. Note that time information regarding the challenge may be stored in the “challenge” field. This time information indicates, for example, the time when a friend overtakes the user's score, or the expiration date of the challenge. The user may be allowed to compete with a friend using the challenge letter within a time limit determined based on the time information. Challenges that have expired may be removed from the “Challenge” field.

FIG. 39 shows an example of the event character table TBL302. As shown in FIG. 39, the event character table TBL 302 is a data table showing a list of event characters owned by each user. For example, the event character table TBL302 includes the fields described below.

The “user ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the user. The “event character ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the event character owned by the user. The “name” field indicates the name of the event character. The “lock” field indicates whether or not the event character is locked. The “leader” field indicates identification information for identifying the event character set in the leader.

The “rarity” field indicates the rarity of the event character. Rarity has the same meaning as rarity. The “rareness” is a mode other than the modes described in the present embodiment, for example, “1, 2,... ”, “A, B,... ”, “Gold, silver,... ”. It is also possible to represent by etc.

The “attribute” field indicates the attribute (classification) of the event character. For example, any of a plurality of types of attributes is associated with each event character. Here, each event character has one of the attributes of “player”, “manager”, or “strengthening material”. The event character having the attribute of "player" can participate in the match during the success part and can contribute to the victory. On the other hand, the event character having the attribute of “manager” or “strengthening material” does not participate in the match during the success part. Therefore, no data is stored in the “position” field, the “specific practice” field, or the like of the event character having the attribute of “manager” or “strengthening material”. Instead, the value of the "event power" field of the event character of "manager" is higher than that of the event character of "player", or the event character of "strengthening material" is used for strengthening. And you can get more experience points than the event character with the attribute of "player" or "manager".

The "position" field indicates a baseball position in which the event character is good. The "special practice" field indicates a practice item that the event character is good at. The “sex” field indicates the sex of the event character. For example, in the success part, only a male or female event character may be set in the event deck for a specific scenario.

The “experience value” field indicates the experience value of the event character. The “level” field indicates the level of the event character. The "highest level" field indicates the upper limit value of the level of the event character. The "profile" field indicates the profile information of the event character.

The “event” field indicates event information regarding the event associated with the event character. In other words, the "event" field indicates event information regarding an event that may occur in the game when the event character is incorporated in the event deck. The event information is information indicating the name and content of the event. For example, the event information includes information about the type and amount of experience points or ability parameters given to the main character by the occurrence of the event. Information indicating the probability or condition of event occurrence may be stored in the "event" field.

The “bonus” field indicates bonus information regarding a bonus associated with the event character. In other words, the “bonus” field indicates bonus information regarding a bonus generated during the game when the event character is incorporated in the event deck. The bonus information is information indicating the name and content of the bonus. For example, when the event character is incorporated in the event deck to increase the probability of occurrence of a specific event, the bonus information includes information indicating the event and information indicating the degree of increase in the occurrence probability. For example, the “bonus” field is associated with the level and the acquired bonus.

The “ability parameter” fold indicates the ability parameter of the event character. For example, when a match event occurs in the success part, the event character incorporated in the event deck participates in the match as a teammate of the main character. When such a match event is executed, the ability parameter of the event character is referred to.

The “event power” field indicates an event power that is an index of an advantage when the event character is set on the event deck. The "player ability" field indicates a player ability, which is an index of the ability of the event character as a player.

FIG. 40 shows an example of the event deck table TBL303. As shown in FIG. 40, the event deck table TBL 303 is a data table showing the state of the event deck of each user. For example, the event deck table TBL303 includes the fields described below.

The “user ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the user. The “name” field indicates the name of the event deck. In this embodiment, the user can own a plurality of event decks, and can set a name for each event deck.

When the event character is not set in the setting frame A344-1, the "first setting frame" field is blank. Similarly, the “second setting frame” field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-2. The “third setting frame” field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-3. The “fourth setting frame” field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-4. The "fifth setting frame" field indicates the event character ID of the event character set in the setting frame A344-5.

FIG. 41 shows an example of the original character table TBL304. As shown in FIG. 41, the original character table TBL 304 is a data table showing a list of original characters trained by each user or the main character being trained. For example, the original character table TBL 304 includes the fields described below.

The “user ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the user. The “original character ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the original character or the protagonist character being trained. The "name" field indicates the name of the original character or the main character who is being trained. The "position" field indicates a baseball position in which the original character or the protagonist character being trained is good at.

The "ability parameter", "physical strength parameter", "motivation parameter", "experience point", and "evaluation" fields are the ability parameter, physical strength parameter, motivation parameter, and experience point of the original character or the main character being trained. And evaluations from other characters. Since the breeding of the original character has been completed, the “physical strength parameter”, “motivation parameter”, “experience point”, and “evaluation” fields may be blank. Further, in the “experience point points” field, the total value of the experience point points acquired in the success part may be stored together with the remaining experience point points at the present time.

The "event deck" field indicates the contents of the event deck used when the original character or the main character who is being raised is raised. In the success part, since the event character of the leader of another user can be added as an assistant, the event character IDs of the event character set in the event deck set by the user and the event character of the assistant are “ It will be stored in the "Event Deck" field.

The "training status" field indicates the current training status. That is, the "cultivation status" field indicates whether the training has been completed or is in the process of being grown. If the training is in progress, the "training status" field may also indicate the current in-game time. Furthermore, the skill level of the hero character may be stored in the "training status" field.

The data stored in the original character table TBL304 is not limited to the above example. For example, the original character table TBL304 may store basic information (images showing appearance and high school from which the character appears) related to the original character or the main character being trained. Alternatively, for example, a trick level that changes during the success part and the state of the hero character may be stored in the original character table TBL304.

FIG. 42 shows an example of the order table TBL305. As shown in FIG. 42, the order table TBL 305 is a data table showing the contents of the order set by the user. The order table TBL 305 includes the fields described below.

The “user ID” field indicates identification information for identifying the user. The “order type” field indicates the type of order. Here, information indicating whether it is a normal order or a limited time event order is stored. The "order" field stores the original character ID included in the order.

The data stored in the data storage unit 3000 is not limited to the above example. The data storage unit 3000 may store data necessary for the game. For example, the data storage unit 3000 may store master data of event characters. Further, for example, the data storage unit 3000 may store various image data. Further, for example, the data storage unit 3000 may store data indicating the relationship between each goal and the reward in the challenge part. Further, for example, data indicating the contents of each scenario may be stored. Further, for example, data indicating the relationship between the special effect character and the score bonus may be stored. Further, for example, the data storage unit 3000 may store the user setting information in association with the user ID. The setting information is, for example, an auto flag indicating the selection content of the processing object P822 of the main command screen image G800, a skip flag indicating the selection content of the processing object P823, and a shortcut flag indicating the selection content of the processing object P824.

In response to a request from the user terminal 10, the processing unit 3010 acquires data regarding the user of the user terminal 10 from the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 and transmits the data to the user terminal 10 or Update data.

For example, it is assumed that the request from the user terminal 10 includes the user ID. When the above request is received by the server 30, the processing unit 3010 acquires the data stored in association with the received user ID from the data storage unit 3000 and transmits the data to the user terminal 10. For example, the processing unit 3010 acquires the event character data stored in association with the user ID from the event character table TBL 302 and transmits the event character data to the user terminal 10. Similarly, the processing unit 3010 acquires the event deck data and the original character data stored in association with the user ID from the event deck table TBL303 and the original character table TBL304, and the event deck data and the original character data are stored in the user terminal 10. Send to.

When the above request is received by the server 30, the processing unit 3010 is notified by the user terminal 10 of the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 (that is, the data stored in association with the received user ID). Update according to the updated contents.

The individual data storage unit 1000 is for storing data regarding the user of the user terminal 10 among the data stored in the data storage unit 3000.

The request unit 1010 acquires data regarding the user of the user terminal 10 from the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 and stores the data in the individual data storage unit 1000 or in the individual data storage unit 1000. When the data to be stored is updated, the data stored in the data storage unit 3000 is also updated.

The request unit 1010 requests the server 30 to return the data stored in association with the user ID by transmitting the user ID of the user of the user terminal 10 to the server 30 at a predetermined timing. The “predetermined timing” is, for example, the timing when the game program is activated, the timing when the home screen image G100 is displayed, the timing when the success part is started, or the like.

When the user terminal 10 receives the data returned from the server 30, the request unit 1010 stores the data in the individual data storage unit 1000.

For example, the request unit 1010 stores the event character data returned from the server 30 in the event character table TBL 302 included in the individual data storage unit 1000. The event character table TBL302 is a data table for storing only the event character of the user of the user terminal 10, and is a data table including the same fields as the event character table TBL302 shown in FIG. 39, for example. (The "User ID" field may be omitted).

Further, the request unit 1010 stores the event deck data returned from the server 30 in the event deck table TBL 303 included in the individual data storage unit 1000. The event deck table TBL303 is a data table for storing only the event deck of the user of the user terminal 10, and is a data table including the same fields as the event deck table TBL303 shown in FIG. 39, for example. (The "User ID" field may be omitted).

Further, the request unit 1010 stores the original character data returned from the server 30 in the original character table TBL 304 included in the individual data storage unit 1000. The original character table TBL304 is a data table for storing only the original characters of the user of the user terminal 10, and is a data table including the same fields as the original character table TBL304 shown in FIG. 41, for example. (The "User ID" field may be omitted).

The data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 is referred to or updated during the execution of the baseball game. When the data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 is updated, the request unit 1010 notifies the server 30 of the content of the update together with the user ID of the user of the user terminal 10 at a predetermined timing, thereby storing the data. The data stored in section 3000 is requested to be updated as well. Note that the “predetermined timing” is, for example, the timing for each predetermined time, the timing when the user finishes playing, or the like.

[3-1. Regarding the first technology]
Next, the function according to the first technique will be described. For example, the first technique is that the first game execution unit 1020, the first effect generation unit 1021, the change target selection unit 1030, the level change unit 1040, the use target selection unit 1050, the effect display control unit 1060, the data acquisition unit 1070, It is realized by the change target display control unit 1080, the material character selection unit 1090, the upper limit release determination unit 1100, the permission unit 1110, the condition display control unit 1120, the event power display control unit 1130, and the player ability display control unit 1140.

The first game execution unit 1020 executes the success part in which the ability parameter of the hero character is changed or set based on the user's operation. The first game execution unit 1020 executes the game program of the baseball game and updates various data related to the success part (for example, the original character table TBL304).

For example, the first game execution unit 1020 executes the success part including the game in which the game task is set, based on the main character and the event character selected by the usage target selection unit 1050.

The “game task” here is a task (mission) defined in the game, and is, for example, to win a battle. In the “game task”, the main character and the event character set in the event deck are used. The “game task” is achieved when the result of the game processing executed based on these is a predetermined result. For example, in the competition, the “game task” is achieved when the number of points (points) that the user has acquired is higher than that of the competition opponent. Winning a match in the Success Part is an example of a game task.

The “success part including a game in which a game task is set” means that there is a game in which a game task is set in a part of the success part. For example, when winning a battle is equivalent to a game task, the success part includes a battle game as a part. For example, when the progress status of the success part reaches a predetermined status, the game in which the game task is set becomes playable.

For example, the first game execution unit 1020 excludes a specific event character among the plurality of event characters from the target of achievement of the game task even if the specific target event character is selected by the use target selection unit 1050.

The “specific event character” may be any character that is determined not to be used in the game task. In this embodiment, the value of the “attribute” field is “manager”. “Not applicable for achievement of game task” means not contributing to achievement of the game task. For example, it means that the game task is not used in the set game. That is, the event character of "manager" will not participate in the match in the success part even if it is set in the event deck.

The change target selection unit 1030 selects any one of the plurality of event characters as a change target based on a user operation. The “change target” is an event character whose level parameter is changed. In the present embodiment, the base character corresponds to the “change target”.

For example, as shown in the base character selection screen image G1700 (FIG. 23), the identification information for identifying each of the plurality of event characters is displayed on the display unit 15, and the change target selection unit 1030 selects the user's selection information from the identification information. Select one or more based on the operation. The “identification information” is, for example, an image representing an event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character displayed in the event character list area A1740 corresponds to “identification information”.

In the present embodiment, the user directly selects the base character, but the user selects only the selection condition for selecting the base character, and the base character is selected based on the selection condition. You may do it. The selection condition is, for example, good practice of the event character. In this case, when the user selects a practice that is emphasized in the success part, any of the event characters for which the practice is set as a good practice may be selected as the base character. By doing so, the event character that is effective for efficiently practicing the user's emphasis is selected as the base character, and the user does not need to search for the base character one by one. In such a case, a plurality of selection conditions for selecting one or more event characters are defined, and the change target selection unit 1030 selects one or more of the selection conditions based on the selection conditions selected by the user. It will be. The selection condition may be a condition regarding the level of the event character or an effect that occurs in the game.

The level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selecting unit 1030. For example, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selecting unit 1030 based on another game object.

The “other game object” is a game object that is neither the main character object nor the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030. The “other game object” may be one other than the event character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 among the plurality of event characters, or may be a third game object that is neither the main character nor the event character. Good. The third game object can also be said to be a game object for changing the level parameter. For example, the third game object can be said to be a game object dedicated to enhancing the event character. For example, the other game object may be selected based on the user's operation, or may be automatically selected. In the present embodiment, the material character corresponds to “another game object”.

For example, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter by increasing the experience value parameter of the base character using the material character. In this embodiment, the material character is consumed (disappeared) when the experience value parameter or the level parameter changes. For example, the amount of change in the experience value parameter and the level parameter varies depending on the material character. In this case, the association between the material character and changes in the experience value parameter and the level parameter is stored in the storage unit. The experience value parameter and the level parameter change based on the change associated with the material character. For example, when the “attribute” field of the material character indicates “reinforcement material”, the increase amount of the level parameter may be increased by increasing the experience value parameter that can be acquired, as compared with the case of indicating other attributes. Good.

In the present embodiment, a case where the level parameter of the base character is changed by using the material character will be described. However, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the base character based on a predetermined parameter. May be. In this case, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the event character selected by the change target selecting unit 1030 based on the parameter for changing the level. The parameter for changing the level may be, for example, a “power injection point” that the user can obtain in the game. In this case, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of the base character by injecting the “power injection point” into the base character.

As described above, each of the plurality of event characters is restricted so that the level parameter of the event character does not fall within the predetermined range. "Limiting the level parameter so that it does not fall within a predetermined range" means prohibiting the level parameter from falling within a predetermined range. That is, the level parameter of each event character is limited so as not to be higher than the maximum level.

The usage target selection unit 1050 selects at least one of the plurality of event characters as a usage target. The “use target” is a game object that is a target used in the game, and is a game object that produces an effect in the game. In the present embodiment, setting on the event deck corresponds to selection as a usage target.

For example, the usage target selection unit 1050 selects an event character based on a user operation. In this case, as shown in the event character change screen image G600 (FIG. 9), the identification information for identifying each of the plurality of event characters is displayed on the display unit 15, and the use target selection unit 1050 selects the user from among them. One or more are selected based on the operation of. The “identification information” is, for example, an image representing an event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character displayed in the event character list area A640 corresponds to "identification information".

Further, for example, the use target selection unit 1050 may automatically select the event character based on a predetermined condition. For example, the usage target selection unit 1050 selects an event character based on the level parameter. For example, when a plurality of types of effects occur in the game, the use target selection unit 1050 selects an event character in which the effect selected by the user occurs. Alternatively, for example, the use target selection unit 1050 may automatically select the event character based on the level parameter or the rarity parameter of the event character.

The first effect generation unit 1021 generates an effect on the success part regarding the change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character based on the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050. For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 changes the effect based on the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050. For example, in the “bonus” field of the event character table TBL 302, data in which the level parameter and the content of the effect are associated is stored, so the first effect generating unit 1021 has the content associated with the level parameter. The effect of is generated in the success part.

For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 displays the effect associated with the parameter range to which the values from the initial value to the current value of the level parameter of the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 out of the plurality of parameter ranges belong. Will be generated. The “parameter range to which the value from the initial value of the level parameter to the current value belongs” is a value (for example, each numerical value of 1 to 50) from the initial value (for example, 1) of the level parameter to the current value (for example, 50). ) Is included in the parameter range, the parameter range to which the level parameter currently belongs and the parameter range to which the level parameter belongs in the past are included. For example, when an event character having a level parameter of 1 suddenly has its level parameter increased to 50, the first effect generation unit 1021 generates only an effect associated with a parameter range including 1 and a parameter range including 50. Instead, it will produce an effect associated with a parameter range that includes any number between 1 and 50. That is, in this case, the first effect generation unit 1021 generates all effects whose level parameter is 50 or less. It should be noted that if the value is a level parameter indicating that the level is higher, then all the effects equal to or lower than the current value will be generated, but if the value is lower, the level parameter indicating that the level is higher (for example, indicating the rank In such a case, for example, 1 is the highest level), all effects above the current value will be generated.

When the operation for selecting the change target is performed, the effect display control unit 1060 determines, for each event character, the correspondence relationship between the level parameter of the event character and the effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021. The control for displaying the corresponding relationship information shown on the display unit 15 is executed.

“When an operation for selecting a change target is performed” is a predetermined timing before and after the user performs an operation. For example, until the selection of the base character is completed. For example, while the base character selection screen image G1700 for receiving the selection operation of the base character is displayed.

The “correspondence information” is information indicating the association between the range of the level parameter and the effect that occurs when the level parameter belongs to the range. The correspondence information includes information indicating the content of the effect. In other words, it includes text information, image information, or the like that allows the user to understand the content of the effect. In addition, the correspondence information may include information for identifying the event character. This information is the name and appearance of the event character. In the present embodiment, the bonus detail screen image G500 corresponds to “correspondence relationship information”. Although the correspondence information is displayed here when the selection operation of the base character is performed, the correspondence information itself may be displayed at an arbitrary timing. For example, the correspondence information may be displayed from the list of event characters displayed by selecting the processing object P1570 of the event character menu screen image G1500, for example.

"Performing control for displaying on the display means" means, for example, generating an image and displaying the image on the display means. In addition, for example, it is possible to display the image on the display unit by generating data necessary for displaying the image and transmitting the data to the display unit or a terminal connected to the display unit. The "data necessary for displaying an image" may be data indicating the image itself or may be data necessary for generating an image. In the following, the same meaning is applied when similar expressions are used.

The data acquisition unit 1070 acquires data stored in the individual data storage unit 1000 that stores data in which each of the plurality of stepwise divided parameter ranges and the effect generated by the effect generation unit are associated with each other. This data can also be said to be data indicating the correspondence between the parameter range and the effect. This data may be in a table format or a mathematical expression format. In the present embodiment, the “bonus” field of the event character table TBL 302 corresponds to the above data.

The “parameter range” is, for example, a range of numerical values when the parameter is a numerical value. For example, from the first reference value to the second reference value larger than the first reference value. For example, when the parameter is a symbol, the range of the order when the symbols are arranged in the symbol order. For example, from the first order to the second order after the first order. The parameter range here includes not only a plurality of levels but also a single level. That is, the effect generated in the success part may be defined for each level.

For example, the effect display control unit 1060 executes control for displaying on the display unit 15 correspondence relationship information indicating a correspondence relationship between each of the plurality of parameter ranges and the effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021. .. That is, the display control unit executes the control for displaying the correspondence information indicating the effect for each parameter range on the display unit 15. In the present embodiment, as shown in the bonus detail screen image G500 of FIG. 8, the effect generated for each level range is shown.

Further, for example, the effect display control unit 1060, for each event character, the effect associated with the parameter range to which the value of the level parameter of the event character from the initial value to the current value belongs, and the initial value to the current value of the level parameter. The control is executed to cause the display unit 15 to display the correspondence information that distinguishes the effect associated with the parameter range to which the values up to do not belong.

The "parameter range to which the value from the initial value to the current value of the level parameter does not belong" means a value from the initial value (for example, 1) to the current value (for example, 50) of the level parameter (for example, each of 1 to 50). It is a parameter range that does not include any one of (numerical values), for example, a parameter range in which the level parameter has not belonged to either the present or the past.

The “distinguished correspondence information” is to change the display mode on the screen. For example, adding an image and making the color, brightness, pattern, and size different. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the bonus detail screen image G500 to which the check objects C510 and C520 are added corresponds to the above-mentioned distinguished correspondence information.

The change target display control unit 1080 executes control for causing the display unit 15 to display a reception image for receiving an operation for selecting a change target.

The “reception image” is an image displayed when an operation is received. The operation performed while the reception image is displayed corresponds to the operation for selecting the change target. In the present embodiment, the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1740 of the base character selection screen image G1700 corresponds to the reception image.

In addition, for example, the effect display control unit 1060 may perform control for displaying the correspondence relationship information on the display unit 15 after an operation for displaying the correspondence relationship information is performed in a state where the reception image is displayed. You may

"After the user performs a predetermined operation for displaying the correspondence information in the state in which the reception image is displayed" means after the predetermined operation in the state in which the reception image is displayed. For example, it means both according to a predetermined operation or according to an operation performed in a state where an image displayed according to the predetermined operation is displayed.

In the present embodiment, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the bonus detailed screen image G500 on the display unit 15 when the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1740 of the base character selection screen image G1700 is long pressed. Execute the control to display.

The effect display control unit 1060 may execute control for displaying the correspondence information on the display unit 15 in the state where the reception image is displayed. In this case, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the received image and the correspondence information on the same screen.

The material character selection unit 1090 selects at least one of the plurality of game objects as a material character based on a user operation.

Here, the “plurality of game objects” are game objects excluding the base character, the original character, and the main character. In the present embodiment, event characters (that is, material character candidates) that can be selected in the event character list area A1940 of the material character selection screen image G1900 correspond to a plurality of game objects.

The upper limit release determination unit 1100 determines, based on the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090, whether or not a given condition associated with the base character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 is satisfied. ..

The “given condition associated with the base character” is a condition determined by the base character, and may be different for each base character. For example, selecting a game object of the same type as the base character.

For example, the given condition is a condition that can be satisfied when the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090 is a specific event character. The specific event character is an event character associated with the base character selected by the change target selection unit 1030, and is, for example, the same event character as the event character. In other words, the predetermined condition is a condition that is not satisfied unless the specific event character is selected, and is a condition that is satisfied with a predetermined probability when the specific event character is selected.

Further, for example, the given condition is a condition that is satisfied with a probability determined based on the material character selected by the material character selection unit 1090. It is a condition that is satisfied under the probability associated with the material character. This probability is determined by the parameter of the material character, for example. For example, the higher the rarity parameter or the level parameter of the material character, the higher the probability may be.

When the upper limit release determination unit 1100 determines that the given condition is satisfied, the permission unit 1110 sets the level parameter of the base character selected by the change target selection unit 1030 to one of a predetermined range and a predetermined range. Permit to be in range. In principle, the permission unit 1110 does not allow the level parameter of the event character to exceed the maximum level. Therefore, the permission unit 1110 determines that the level parameter of the event character is set only when it is determined that the given condition is satisfied. Allow to exceed the highest level.

The “predetermined range” may be a preset parameter range. For example, if the parameter is a numerical value, it will be equal to or greater than the reference value, and if the parameter is a symbol, it will be a symbol after a predetermined order. In the present embodiment, the range higher (larger) than the maximum level value corresponds to the predetermined range.

The condition display control unit 1120 performs control for displaying condition information on a given condition on the display unit 15 when an operation for selecting a material character is performed. “Condition information” is an image or text showing the content of a given condition.

For example, the condition display control unit 1120 performs control for causing the display unit 15 to display, for each event character, condition information regarding whether or not the event character is a specific event character. In the present embodiment, as shown in the material character selection screen image G1900 of FIG. 25, “open 100%” or “open 30%” indicating whether or not the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1940 can be opened to the highest level. Is to be displayed.

Further, for example, the condition display control unit 1120 performs control for displaying, for each event character, the condition information regarding the probability when the event character is selected by the material character selection unit 1090 on the display unit 15. In the present embodiment, as shown in the material character selection screen image G1900 of FIG. 25, "open 100%" and "open 30%" indicating the highest level of open probability for the processing object of each event character in the event character list area A1940. Is to be displayed.

The event power display control unit 1130 causes the display unit 15 to display, for each event character, information indicating the degree of the effect generated by the first effect generation unit 1021 when the event character is selected by the usage target selection unit 1050. Control for.

The “information indicating the degree of the effect” is a numerical value or a symbol indicating the magnitude (high or low) of the effect. In the mobile phone of the present embodiment, the event power displayed on the event character screen image G400 corresponds to the information indicating the degree of the effect. The event power display control unit 1130 acquires the value of the “event power” field of the event character table TBL 302 and displays it on the display unit 15.

The player ability display control unit 1140 causes the display unit 15 to further display, for each event character, information indicating the degree to which it is advantageous to achieve the game task when the event character is selected by the use target selection unit 1050. Control for.

The “information indicating the degree of advantage” is a numerical value or symbol indicating the degree of facilitating achievement of the game task. In the present embodiment, the game task here is to win the game of the success part, so the player ability displayed in the event character screen image G400 corresponds to information indicating the degree of the effect. The event power display control unit 1130 acquires the value of the “player ability” field of the event character table TBL 302 and displays it on the display unit 15.

[3-2. Regarding the second technology]
In order to realize the second technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes the first game execution unit 1020, the first effect generation unit 1021, the effect display control unit 1060, the distinction display control unit 1150, and the assistant selection unit 1160. , A second game execution unit 1170, a special effect determination unit 1171, and a second effect generation unit 1172.

The first game execution unit 1020 executes the same process as the process described in the first technique, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

The first effect generation unit 1021 determines whether or not the success parameter relating to the change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character is based on at least one selected from the plurality of event characters (for example, the event character set in the event deck). Cause the effect of. The first effect generating unit 1021 may also execute the same process as the process described in the first technique, but the second technique is mainly a technique relating to a special effect character, and thus the first effect generating unit 1021. When the special effect character is selected, the effect is changed based on the level parameter of the special effect character. The method of changing the effect based on the level parameter is the same as the method described in the first technique.

In the first technique, the case where the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect based on the level parameter has been described, but in the second technique, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect based on the event character. It may be generated, and may not necessarily be based on the level parameter. For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 may generate an effect based on an ability parameter or rarity, or may generate an effect based on an event list.

When the operation for selecting at least one of the plurality of event characters (for example, the event character to be set in the event deck) is performed, the distinctive display control unit 1150 displays information about the special effect character and other event characters. The control for displaying the information on the display unit 15 is distinguished from the information regarding the information. The meaning of the above operation and the meaning of “display distinctively” are the same as those described in the first technique.

The “when the operation is performed” is a predetermined timing before and after the user performs the operation. For example, until the selection of the event character is completed. For example, it is during displaying the event deck setting screen image G300, the event character change screen image G600, or the event deck editing screen image G1600 for accepting the operation of selecting the event character.

The “character-related information” is information that identifies the event character and parameters of the event character. In the present embodiment, the processing object that identifies the event character corresponds to information about the character. For example, as shown in FIG. 31 and FIG. 32, the distinctive display control unit 1150 causes the special character processing object and the other event character to have different display modes in the event character list area A640 and the setting frame. It should be noted that the information regarding the special effect character and the information regarding the other event character are displayed separately, not only when the operation for selecting the event character to be incorporated into the event deck is performed. These distinctive displays may be made at any timing. For example, in the list of event characters displayed by selecting the processing object P1570 of the event character menu screen image G1500, the special effect character and other event characters may be displayed separately. In addition, for example, when the event character is added by the gacha executed after the user selects the processing object P124, the event character menu screen image G1500 is displayed, and when the processing object P1570 is selected, the distinct display is performed. May be performed. In this case, the display of the event character menu screen image G1500 may be omitted and only the distinctive display may be performed.

The effect display control unit 1060 executes control for causing the display unit 15 to display the correspondence relationship information indicating the correspondence relationship between the special effect character and the effect generated by the second effect generating unit 1172. For example, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the special effect character and the effect generated in the stadium part in association with each other. The correspondence information includes information indicating the content of the effect. In other words, it includes text information, image information, or the like that allows the user to understand the content of the effect. In addition, the correspondence information includes information for identifying a special effect character. This information is the name and appearance of the special effect character. For example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the effect display control unit 1060 displays the score bonus of the special effect character in the event character list area A640 and the setting frame.

The effect display control unit 1060 causes the display unit 15 to display the correspondence information when the operation for selecting at least one of the plurality of event characters (for example, the event character set in the event deck) is performed. Control to run. The above operations and the meanings of “when the operations are performed” are as described above.

The helper selection unit 1160 selects an event character owned by another user associated with the user. The “other user associated with the user” is, for example, a user having a friendship. Not only the event character owned by the user who plays the game but also the event character owned by another user can be selected.

The second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part in which the original character is used. For example, the second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part based on the ability parameter of the original character. The second game execution unit 1170 executes the game program of the baseball game and updates various data related to the stadium part (for example, the user table TBL301).

The second game execution unit 1170 may execute the game of the stadium part based on the operation of the user, or may automatically execute the game of the stadium part based on the operation of the user. .. It may be possible for the user to specify whether to execute the stadium part game based on the operation of the user or to automatically execute the stadium part game.

The special effect determination unit 1171 determines whether or not the ability parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is changed or set in the success part executed in a state in which the special effect character is selected. For example, the special effect determination unit 1171 determines whether or not the special effect character is used when the ability parameter of the original character is changed or set. Here, since the content of the event deck when the ability parameter of the original character is changed or set is stored in the original character table TBL304, the special effect determination unit 1171 makes a determination based on the content of the original character table TBL304. ..

The second effect generation unit 1172 generates an effect advantageous or disadvantageous for the user on the stadium part based on the determination result of the special effect determination unit 1171.

The “advantageous or unfavorable effect for the user” is an effect that makes it easy or difficult to obtain a desired result in the stadium part. For example, in the case of a game that aims to obtain a reward (points, in-game currency, etc.) like a stadium part, the effect is to increase or decrease the reward. For example, in the case of a competitive game such as a stadium part, the effect of facilitating the competition or the effect of making the competition difficult may be used.

For example, when the second effect generating unit 1172 determines that the ability parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is changed or set in the success part executed with the special effect character selected, A user-friendly effect is generated on the stadium part. Further, for example, when the second effect generating unit 1172 determines that the level parameter of the original character used in the stadium part is not changed or set in the success part executed in a state where the special effect character is selected, You may make it a disadvantageous effect on a user generate on a stadium part.

In the present embodiment, the stadium part aims to obtain a reward by using the original character whose ability parameter has changed in the success part, so the second effect generating unit 1172 is advantageous for the user to obtain a reward or A disadvantageous effect will occur in the stadium part.

The “advantageous or unfavorable effect of obtaining a reward” is an effect of easily obtaining a reward or an effect of making it difficult to obtain a reward. That is, it is the effect that the reward obtained is improved or the reward obtained is deteriorated.

The second effect generation unit 1172 may change the effect based on the parameter of the special effect character. The second effect generation unit 1172 changes the content of the effect based on the parameter of the special effect character. For example, the association between the parameter and the effect is stored in the data storage unit 3000. The second effect generation unit 1172 will generate an effect associated with the parameter. The parameter may be a rarity parameter or a level parameter. The second effect generation unit 1172 increases the score bonus as the rarity level or the level of the special effect character increases.

For example, the second effect generation unit 1172 may change the effect based on the number of original characters whose ability parameters have been changed or set in the success part based on the special effect character. In this case, the association between the number of original characters trained by the special effect character and the effect is stored in the data storage unit 3000, and the second effect generating unit 1172 determines the number of original characters trained by the special effect character. Generates the associated effect. For example, the second effect generating unit 1172 generates an effect that is advantageous or disadvantageous as the number of original characters trained by the special effect character increases. That is, the second effect generation unit 1172 may increase the effect of the stadium part as the number of original characters trained by the special effect character increases.

[3-3. Third technology]
In order to realize the third technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a parameter changing unit 1022, a use target selection unit 1050, a practice selection unit 1180, and a practice display control unit 1190.

As described above, in the success part, each of the plurality of ability parameters of the main character is changed or set. Further, in the success part, one of the plurality of roles is set as the main character. The role is a role assigned in the game, and is a position in this embodiment.

The practice selection unit 1180 selects any one of the plurality of options associated with at least one of the plurality of ability parameters, based on the first selection operation by the user. The “first selection operation” is an operation in which the user selects an option, and is, for example, an operation in which any one of the plurality of options displayed on the display unit 15 is selected. In the present embodiment, each of the processing objects P921 to P926 corresponds to an option, and the operation of selecting any of the processing objects P921 to P926 corresponds to the first selection operation.

Each of the plurality of options is associated with at least one of the plurality of roles. In the present embodiment, the option indicating the practice of the fielder is associated with the role of the fielder, and the processing object indicating the practice of the pitcher is associated with the role of the pitcher. Then, the options associated with the role of the main character can be selected by the first selection operation. That is, when the role of the protagonist character is a fielder, the processing object associated with the fielder can be selected, and when the role of the protagonist character is the pitcher, the processing object associated with the pitcher can be selected.

The usage target selection unit 1050 selects at least one of the plurality of event characters associated with at least one of the plurality of options based on the second selection operation by the user. In the present embodiment, the fact that the event character is associated with the good practice corresponds to that at least one of the options is associated with the event character.

The parameter changing unit 1022 changes the parameter associated with the option selected by the practice selecting unit 1180 among the plurality of ability parameters. As described above, each of the options has an ability parameter that is increased when the processing object is selected. Therefore, the parameter changing unit 1022 increases the ability parameter associated with the selected one of the options.

When the option selected by the practice selecting unit 1180 is the option associated with the event character selected by the use target selecting unit 1050, the parameter changing unit 1022 determines that the option selected by the practice selecting unit 1180 is Compared to the case where the option is not associated with the event character selected by the usage target selection unit 1050, the parameter associated with the option selected by the continuous selection unit is changed so that the user has an advantage in the game. For example, the parameter changing unit 1022 increases the amount of change in the ability parameter of the main character when the good practice associated with the event character set in the event deck is selected.

The practice display control unit 1190 executes control for displaying on the display unit 15 the option information regarding the options associated with the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050. The option information is an image, text, or the like for displaying the options on the display unit 15. In the present embodiment, each practice included in the processing objects P921 to P926 and the specialty practice area A346 corresponds to option information.

In the practice display control unit 1190, a plurality of event characters are selected by the use target selection unit 1050, and the options associated with each of the plurality of event characters selected by the use target selection unit 1050 are the same. In this case, the control for displaying the information indicating the number of the same options on the display unit 15 in association with the option information is executed.

The “information indicating the number of options” is an image or text indicating a numerical value. In the present embodiment, a numerical value such as “×2” displayed in the specialty practice area A346 corresponds to “information indicating the number of options”.

"Displaying the information indicating the number of options in association with the option information" means, for example, displaying the information indicating the number of options and the option information such that a part of the information and the information indicating the number of options and the option are displayed. The information is displayed so that the distance to the information is within a predetermined distance, and the information indicating the number of options and the option information are connected by an image such as a line. In the present embodiment, a numerical value such as “×2” is displayed so as to indicate the good practice displayed in the good practice area A346.

For example, the practice display control unit 1190 distinguishes between the option information related to the option associated with the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050 and the option information related to the option other than the option on the display unit 15. The meaning of "display distinctively" for executing the control of is as described above.

For example, the practice display control unit 1190 displays the option information related to each of the plurality of options in an order that is determined based on the role associated with the option, and displays the event character selected by the use target selection unit 1050. The control is executed to distinguish the option information related to the option associated with the option information from the option information related to the option other than the option, and to display the option information on the display unit 15.

The “order determined based on roles” is an order in which the roles can be identified by the order, and the options associated with the first role are displayed side by side on the first side, and the options associated with the second role are displayed. Are displayed side by side on the second side. Here, the practice display control unit 1190 displays the practice of the fielder side by side on the left side and displays the practice of the pitcher side by side on the right side in the specialty practice area A346.

[3-4. About the fourth technology]
In order to realize the fourth technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a first effect generating unit 1021, a scenario selecting unit 1200, and a scenario changing unit 1210.

The scenario selection unit 1200 selects any one of a plurality of options regarding the content of the game scenario based on the user's operation. The “option regarding the content of the scenario” is an option for determining the content of the scenario, and in the present embodiment, it is an option for the user to select the next section at the end of each section.

The scenario changing unit 1210 changes the content of the game scenario based on the options selected by the scenario selecting unit 1200. The scenario changing unit 1210 advances the scenario selected by the user's operation among the plurality of types of scenarios in the success part.

The first effect generation unit 1021 may have the same content as described in the first technique and the second technique. However, in the third technique, the first effect generation unit 1021 generates a specific effect in the game corresponding to the specific event character when the specific event character is selected from the plurality of event characters. .. The specific event character here is an event character associated with a specific effect, and is an event character of a predetermined rarity. The specific effect may be a predetermined effect, and is, for example, an effect that enables the main character to acquire super-special ability.

When the scenario selection unit 1200 selects a specific option from a plurality of options, the first effect generation unit 1021 does not correspond to a specific event character in the game corresponding to the specific event character. You may make it produce a specific effect. The “specific option” is an option for advancing to a predetermined scenario, for example, an option for advancing to a limited-time scenario. When the option for proceeding to the limited-time scenario is selected, the first effect generating unit 1021 allows the hero character to acquire the super-special ability even if the specific event character is not incorporated in the event deck.

For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 may limit the occurrence of a specific effect other than the specific period and generate the specific effect within the specific period. Further, for example, the first effect generation unit 1021 restricts the scenario selection unit 1200 from selecting a specific option from a plurality of options other than the specific period, and the scenario selection unit 1200 sets a plurality of options within a specific period. It is possible to allow a specific option to be selected from the options. That is, it is not possible to select a scenario in which the super-special ability can be acquired except in a specific period.

[3-5. About the fifth technology]
In order to realize the fifth technique, in the present embodiment, the game system 1 includes a first update unit 3020, a second update unit 3030, a result determination unit 3040, a game providing unit 3050, and a challenge display control unit 3060. Including. Note that the present technology relates to processing performed between the user terminal 10 of a certain user and the user terminal 10 of a friend thereof, and is premised on a configuration in which a plurality of user terminals 10 can access the server 30. ..

As described above, the second game execution unit 1170 executes the stadium part based on the original character associated with the user ID and the other game object. The other game object may be an original character associated with another user ID, or may be another game object. The other game objects are game characters prepared by the administrator of the game system 1, for example.

The first updating unit 3020 stores the first result information stored in the data storage unit 3000, which stores the first result information indicating the result of the first user identified in the stadium part by the first user ID, as the first result information. Update based on user gameplay. The second updating unit 3030 stores the second achievement information stored in the data storage unit 3000, which stores the second achievement information indicating the achievements of the second user identified by the second user ID in the stadium part, as the second user. Update based on gameplay.

The achievement is information indicating whether the content of the game or the result is good or bad, and may be the progress of the game or the battle record. In the present embodiment, the score obtained in the match at the stadium part corresponds to the result. When each of the first updating unit 3020 and the second updating unit 3030 receives the score acquired by the user in the match of the stadium part from the user terminal 10, the content is stored in the user table TBL301.

The achievement determining unit 3040 determines, based on the first achievement information and the second achievement information, that the second user's achievement is the first user's achievement from the first state in which the second user's achievement is lower than the first user's achievement. It is determined whether or not the state has changed to a higher second state. When determining that the state has changed from the first state to the second state, the game providing unit 3050 is based on the original character associated with the first user ID and the original character associated with the second user ID. The control for providing the game executed by the first user is executed. This game may be executed by a game object owned by each user, and is, for example, a battle game.

For example, the game providing unit 3050, based on the operation performed by the first user with the notification displayed, the original character associated with the first user ID, the original character associated with the second user ID, and The game executed based on is provided to the first user.

“Providing the game to the user” means transmitting the game program to the user terminal 10 and permitting execution of the game. In addition, for example, it may be a process for urging the user to compete.

The challenge display control unit 3060, when it is determined that the state has changed from the first state to the second state, issues a notification indicating that the game is provided by the game providing unit 3050 to the display unit corresponding to the first user. The control for displaying on 15 is executed. This notification may be performed in a predetermined format, for example, displaying the processing object P160 on the display unit 15.

[4. Processing executed in game system 1]
43 to 66 are flowcharts showing an example of processing executed in the game system 1. The processes shown in FIGS. 43 to 66 are executed by the control unit 11 operating in accordance with the program stored in the storage unit 12, and the control unit 31 operating in accordance with the program stored in the storage unit 32. In the embodiment, the functional blocks shown in FIG. 37 are realized by executing the processing described below. The process described below ends when a predetermined operation for ending the game is input from the input unit 14.

As shown in FIG. 43, in the user terminal 10, when the control unit 11 activates the program stored in the storage unit 12, the control unit 11 requests the latest program and data from the server 30 (S1001). For example, the storage unit 12 stores the version of the game program, and the control unit 11 transmits the version.

When the user terminal 10 communicates with the server 30, the user ID, the IP address, the unique identification information of the user terminal 10 or the like is transmitted to the server 30, and the server 30 communicates with which user terminal 10. It is possible to identify what you are doing. When the server 30 receives the user ID from the user terminal 10, the control unit 31 identifies the user ID from the communication content. When the server 30 receives the IP address or the unique identification information from the user terminal 10, the association between the IP address or the unique identification information and the user ID is stored in the storage unit 32 in advance, and the control unit 31 determines the communication content. And the user ID is specified based on this association.

In the server 30, when the request is received, the control unit 31 transmits the latest program and the latest data stored in the storage unit 32 to the user terminal 10 if the program of the user terminal 10 is not the latest (S3001). .. The latest data here is, for example, data indicating a notice from the game provider to the user or data corresponding to the user ID in each table. In S3001, the control unit 31 compares the version received from the user terminal 10 with the latest program version stored in the storage unit 32. If the program of the user terminal 10 is the latest version, the control unit 31 does not send the program to the user terminal 10. Further, in S3001, the control unit 31 refers to the storage unit 32 and transmits various data associated with the user ID to the user terminal 10.

In the user terminal 10, when the control unit 11 receives the latest program or data, the control unit 11 stores the latest program or data in the storage unit 12 (S1003). When the latest program is received, the control unit 11 ends this process and restarts the game based on the latest program.

The control unit 11 displays a predetermined notification screen image based on the data received from the server 30 (S1005), refers to the user table TBL301, and determines whether a challenge letter from a friend has arrived (S1007). ). In S1007, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the user ID is stored in the “challenge letter” field of the user table TBL301. When the user ID of the friend is stored, the control unit 11 determines that the challenge letter from the friend has arrived.

The control unit 11 displays the home screen image G100 (FIGS. 2 and 34) on the display unit 15 based on the determination result of S1007 (S1009). In S1009, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the home screen image G100 (FIG. 34) including the processing object P170 when the challenge letter from the friend has arrived. The image data of each image displayed on the display unit 15 is assumed to be stored in the storage unit 12 in advance. This point is also the same thereafter.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the home screen image G100 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1011). In S1011, the storage unit 12 stores the display position of each processing object, and the control unit 11 determines which processing object the position on the screen instructed by the input unit 14 corresponds to. It will be. This point is the same in the subsequent processing for determining the selection of the processing object or the like.

When the user selects the processing object P140 (S1011; P140), the processing moves to FIG. 44, and the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the processing objects P141 to P143 (S1013). The control unit 11 determines whether any of the processing objects P141 to P143 has been selected based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1015).

When the user selects any of the processing objects P141 to P143 (S1015; Y), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the hero registration screen image G200 (FIG. 4) (S1017). The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the hero registration screen image G200 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1019).

When the user selects any of the processing objects P241 to P245 (S1019; P241 to P245), the control unit 11 executes a process of changing the registration information of the main character based on the input from the input unit 14 ( S1021). In S1021, the control unit 11 reflects the content input from the input unit 14 in the hero registration area A240. The input contents are temporarily stored in the storage unit 12.

On the other hand, when the user selects the processing object P250 (S1019; P250), the control unit 11 stores the registered content of the main character in the original character table TBL304 (S1023), and the event deck setting screen image G300 (FIGS. 5, 6). ) Is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1025). In step S1025, the control unit 11 creates a new record in the original character table TBL304 stored in the storage unit 12, issues an original character ID, and stores the content displayed in the hero registration area A240 in the record. To do. The original character ID may be issued so that it does not overlap with the one already stored in the original character table TBL304.

In S1025, when the control unit 11 updates the original character table TBL304 of the storage unit 12, the control unit 11 transmits the updated data to the server 30. The control unit 31 of the server 30 stores the received data in the original character table TBL 304 of the storage unit 32. Similarly, after that, when the control unit 11 updates each table stored in the storage unit 12, the updated data is transmitted to the server 30, and the control unit 31 updates the table in the storage unit 32. It will be. In this way, data consistency is maintained between the user terminal 10 and the server 30. Note that the timing of obtaining the data consistency is not limited to the time of updating the table, and the data consistency may be regularly obtained or the data consistency may be obtained according to the user's operation. Good.

Turning to FIG. 45, the control unit 11 determines which processing object or setting frame is selected in the event deck setting screen image G300 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1027).

When the user selects the processing object P342 (S1027; P342), the control unit 11 changes the event deck name based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1029). In S1029, the control unit 11 reflects the content input from the input unit 14 in the area A341. The input contents are temporarily stored in the storage unit 12.

When the user selects the processing object P343 (S1027; P343), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the automatic setting menu screen image G700 (FIG. 11) (S1031). The control unit 11 determines, based on the input from the input unit 14, which processing object has been selected in the automatic setting menu screen image G700 (S1033).

When the user selects the processing object P710 (S1033; P710), the control unit 11 automatically organizes an event deck for pitchers and stores it in the event character table TBL302 (S1035). For example, the pitcher's automatic formation conditions are stored in the storage unit 12, and in S1035, the control unit 11 sets the pitcher's automatic formation conditions and the data of each event character stored in the event character table TBL302. A predetermined number (here, 5) of event characters are selected based on the above. The control unit 11 stores the selected event character ID in the record that stores the event deck name displayed in the area A341 in the event character table TBL302.

The automatic formation condition is, for example, a conditional expression or mathematical expression for calculating an evaluation value indicating a priority to be incorporated in the event deck for each event character. For example, this formula may be set so that the higher the rarity or the higher the evaluation value, the higher the evaluation value when the practice of the pitcher is good practice or the player has a predetermined bonus. You may make it determine so that it may become. In S1035, the control unit 11 selects a predetermined number of event characters in descending order of evaluation value.

When the user selects the processing object P720 (S1033; P720), the control unit 11 automatically organizes an event deck for fielders and stores it in the event character table TBL302 (S1037). The knitting method in S1037 is the same as in S1035, except that the automatic knitting condition is for fielders. When the user selects the processing object P730 (S1033; P730), the process returns to S1025.

On the other hand, in S1027, when the user long presses any of the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5 (S1027; long press operation), the process moves to FIG. 46, and the control unit 11 causes the event character table TBL302 and the event deck table. The event character screen image G400 (FIG. 7) is displayed on the display unit 15 with reference to the TBL 303 (S1039). In S1039, the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL303, and specifies the event character ID indicated by the long-pressed one of the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5. Then, the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL302 and causes the display unit 15 to display the event character screen image G400 based on the record in which the specified event character ID is stored.

Based on the above, the bonus acquired at the current level is specified and displayed in the second area A420.

When the user selects the third tab T423 (S1041; T423), the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL302 and causes the display unit 15 to display the profile of the event character (S1057). In S1057, the control unit 11 identifies the profile indicated by the "profile" field of the record in which the event character ID indicated by the event character screen image G400 is stored and displays it in the second area A420.

On the other hand, returning to FIG. 45, in S1027, when the user taps any of the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5 (S1027; tap operation), the process proceeds to FIG. 47, and the control unit 11 sets the event character table TBL302. With reference, the event character change screen image G600 (FIG. 9, 31) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1059).

In S1059, the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL303 to identify the event character currently incorporated in the event deck, and the identified event character is said to be "in use" in the event character list area A640. Display it. Further, if the limited-time event is being performed, the control unit 11 causes the special effect character to superimpose the score bonus in the event character list area A640 if the event character ID of the special effect character is stored in the event deck table TBL303. .. Further, the control unit 11 refers to the event deck table TBL303, identifies an event character other than the above, and displays the identified event character in the event character list area A640.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the event character change screen image G600 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1061). When the user selects the processing object P641 (S1061; P641), the control unit 11 updates the event deck table TBL303 so that the event character tapped in S1027 is removed from the event deck (S1063).

When the user selects the processing object corresponding to the event character in the event character list area A640 (S1061; event character), the control unit 11 updates the event deck table TBL303 so that the event character is incorporated in the event deck. (S1065). In S1065, the control unit 11 deletes the event character ID of the event character tapped in S1027 from the event deck table TBL303, and sets the event character ID of the event character indicated by the processing object selected by the user in the event deck table TBL303. Store.

When the user selects the processing object P650 (S1061; P650), the control unit 11 rearranges the event characters in the event character list area A640 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1067). In S1067, the user selects the display order condition from the input unit 14. Then, the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL302 and rearranges the event characters in the event character list area A640 based on the condition selected by the user.

On the other hand, returning to FIG. 45, in S1027, when the user selects the setting frame A345 (S1027; A345), the process moves to FIG. 48, and the control unit 11 inquires of the server 30 about a candidate for an assistant (S1069). The helper candidate is an event character set as a leader of another user.

In the server 30, when the inquiry is received, the control unit 31 refers to the event character table TBL302 and transmits the data regarding the event character set to the leader of the other user to the user terminal 10 (S3003). In S3003, the control unit 31 will transmit a predetermined number of data to the user terminal 10 among the records in which the user IDs other than the user ID that transmitted the inquiry are stored. The control unit 31 may randomly select a predetermined number of data, or may select the combination of the event character's favorite practice to be a predetermined combination. That is, the control unit 31 may select the event characters that are candidates for the helper so that they do not have the same good practice. The control unit 31 may preferentially select the leader of the user's friend as a candidate for the helper. Furthermore, if the user selects a friend's leader as a helper, a certain effect may occur in the success part. This effect includes, for example, an increase in the amount of experience points when a friend's leader's favorite practice is selected, an increase in the initial value of the leader's evaluation, and an increase in the probability that an event related to the leader will occur. Etc. That is, when the user selects the friend's leader as the helper, the effect that the user is advantageous in the success part may be generated as compared with the case where the non-friend leader is selected as the helper.

In the user terminal 10, when receiving the data, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a list of helper candidates based on the received data (S1071), and based on the input from the input unit 14, the user The assistant selected by is set in the setting frame A345 (S1073). The event deck setting area A340 in this case is as shown in FIG. In S1073, the control unit 11 stores the event character ID of the assistant selected by the user in the “event deck” field of the original character table TBL304.

On the other hand, returning to FIG. 45, when the user selects the processing object P350 in S1027 (S1027; P350), the process proceeds to FIG. 49, and the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the opening image of the success part and the like. Later (S1075), the main command screen image G800 (FIG. 12) is displayed on the display unit 15 (S1077). The control unit 11 stores in the original character table TBL 304 initial values of the ability parameter, physical strength parameter, motivation parameter, experience point, and evaluation from other characters of the main character. These values may be fixed values or may fluctuate randomly.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the main command screen image G800 (FIG. 12) based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1079). When the user selects the processing object P841 (S1079; P841), the control unit 11 shifts to FIG. 50 and displays the practice screen image G900 (FIG. 13) on the display unit 15 (S1081). In S1081, the control unit 11 randomly determines which of the exercises indicated by the processing objects P921 to P926 the event character and the other character incorporated in the event deck will participate in, and stores the determination result. Hold in part 12.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the practice screen image G900 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1083). When the user selects any one of the processing objects P921 to P926 (S1083; P921 to P926), the control unit 11 causes the cursor object C927 to be displayed so as to point to the selected processing object (S1085), and the experience point area is displayed. The display of A930 and the game character area A940 is updated (S1087).

In step S1087, the control unit 11 calculates the experience point points that increase when the user practices the processing object selected, based on the mathematical formulas described in the game program, and displays the experience point points in the experience point area A930. Let This mathematical formula defines the relationship between each exercise and the type of experience value point that increases and the increase value. Note that this relationship may be stored in the storage unit 12 as a table instead of a mathematical expression. For example, the control unit 11 acquires the type and the increase value of the experience value points associated with the practice of the processing object selected by the user. Then, the control unit 11 refers to the determination result in S1081 to determine whether or not the event character who is good at practicing the processing object selected by the user participates in the practice. Increase the gained value obtained above. This increment may be a fixed value or a variable value. For example, the control unit 11 may randomly determine the increase amount, or may increase the increase amount as the rarity or the level parameter of the event character increases. The control unit 11 displays the increase value calculated as described above in the experience point area A930, and displays the determination result in S1081 in the game character area A940.

The control unit 11 determines whether the processing object selected in S1083 has been selected again based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1089). When the user selects again (S1089; Y), the control unit 11 raises the ability parameter of the hero character by the ascent value determined in S, and determines whether the event character and other characters who participated in the practice together. The original character table TBL304 is updated so that the evaluation is increased by a predetermined value (S1091), and the practice result screen image G1000 (FIG. 14) and the event screen image G1100 (FIG. 15) are displayed on the display unit 15 (S1093).

In step S1093, the control unit 11 causes the message area A1030 to be displayed so as to show the increased value of the ability parameter of the main character and the increased value of the evaluation parameter of the event character and other characters who participated in the exercise together. The increase value of the evaluation parameter may be a fixed value or may be changed randomly. Further, the control unit 11 displays the dog character C1040 on the practice result screen image G1000 with a given probability, and gives the user a randomly determined game item. As described above, this probability may be set in advance in the storage unit 12, but if the notice screen image G1400 is displayed at the start of the section, the control unit 11 increases the probability. Further, the control unit 11 may update the user table TBL301 so that the game item is provided at the time of S1093, or may update the user table TBL301 so that the game item is provided at the end of the section. Good.

Further, in S1093, the control unit 11 determines, with a given probability, whether or not to generate a game event of the event character who participated in the practice together. For example, the control unit 11 refers to the event character table TBL302, identifies the game event of the event character who participated in the practice together, and determines whether or not to generate the identified game event with the above probability. It will be. It should be noted that the probability of occurrence may be different or the same for each game event. When determining to generate a game event, the control unit 11 displays the event screen image G1100 on the display unit 15 and updates the original character table TBL304 so that the parameter of the main character changes (increases or decreases). Note that the relationship between the game event, the type of the changing parameter (at least one of the ability parameter, the physical strength parameter, the motivation parameter, the experience point, and the evaluation parameter) and the amount of change is stored in the storage unit 12 in advance. You can do this. The control unit 11 updates the original character table TBL 304 so that the type of parameter associated with the generated game event is changed by the change amount.

Further, in S1093, the control unit 11 determines whether a game event for the hero character to acquire super-special ability is generated based on a given probability if a scenario for a limited time is in progress. decide. The control unit 11 may randomly generate this game event. When determining to generate a game event, the control unit 11 displays the event screen image G1100 on the display unit 15 and updates the original character table TBL304 so that the hero character learns super-special ability.

Note that in S1089, the control unit 11 may cause the main character to be injured due to failure in practice under a given probability. In this case, the processes of S1091 and S1093 are not executed. For example, the control unit 11 determines the probability of the main character being injured based on the physical strength parameter of the main character. When the protagonist character is injured, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a screen image indicating that the protagonist character is injured so that the ability parameter of the protagonist character is reduced by a predetermined value. The TBL 304 may be updated.

The control unit 11 refers to the user table TBL301 to display a screen image indicating information such as the league and ranking of the user on the display unit 15 (S1157), and when the user performs a predetermined operation, the server 30 is displayed. It requests information on opponent candidates (S1159).

In the server 30, when the request is received, the control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL301, selects a predetermined number of opponent candidates (S3005), and transmits information of the selected opponent candidates to the user terminal 10. (S3007). In S3007, the control unit 31 selects a predetermined number (for example, 5) of other users having the same level of strength as the user, based on the rank, league, ranking, etc. of the user. The other users selected here may be users who are not in friendship. The control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL301 and the event character table TBL302, and transmits information such as the user name, rank, and event character set as the leader of the selected opponent candidate to the user terminal 10.

In the user terminal 10, when the information on the opponent candidates is received, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a screen image showing the opponent candidates (S1161). In this screen image, a plurality of opponent candidates are displayed in a selectable manner. The control unit 11 determines an opponent based on the operation of the user (S1163) and requests the order of the opponent (S1165). This request includes the user ID determined as the opponent.

In the server 30, when the order request is received, the control unit 31 refers to the order table TBL 305, acquires the order information of the user determined as the opponent, and transmits it to the user terminal 10 (S3009).

In the user terminal 10, when the order information is received, the control unit 11 refers to the order table TBL305 and displays a screen image showing the user's starting order and the opponent's starting order on the display unit 15. (S1167). In this screen image, the batting order, name, position, and rank of the original character in the starting order are displayed together with the team name.

The control unit 11 identifies a user operation based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1169). For example, it is assumed that the user can perform an operation for changing the order and an operation for confirming the order and determining the tone.

When the user performs an operation for changing the order (S1169; order change), the control unit 11 displays the normal order edit screen image G2200 on the display unit 15 and edits the order based on the input from the input unit 14. The process is executed (S1171), and the process returns to S1167. The processing of S1171 is the same as that of S1283 to S1293, which will be described later, and thus the description thereof is omitted here.

When the user performs an operation for confirming the order and determining the condition (S1169; order confirmation), the process moves to FIG. 54, and the control unit 11 determines the condition of the starting order of the user and the opponent (S1173). .. In step S<b>1173, the control unit 11 randomly determines one of a plurality of stages of tone for each original character in the starting order, and stores the determination result in the storage unit 12.

The control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the tone determination result in S1173 (S1175), and refers to the user table TBL301 to cause the display unit 15 to display a screen image for selecting a game item to be used in the match. (S1177). In S1177, the control unit 11 displays the game items stored in the “item” field of the user table TBL301 in a selectable manner.

The control unit 11 identifies a user operation based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1179). For example, it is assumed that the user can perform an operation for selecting a game item, an operation for designating a game progression method, and an operation for starting a game. Here, as a game progress method, it is possible to specify either that the game is all automatically progressed or that the user operates the original character in a predetermined scene.

When the user performs an operation for selecting a game item (S1179; game item), the control unit 11 holds the game item selected by the user in the storage unit 12 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1181). ). When the user performs an operation for designating the progress method of the game (S1179; progress method), the control unit 11 holds information indicating the progress method designated by the user in the storage unit 12 (S1183).

When the user performs an operation for starting the game (S1179; start the game), the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL301 so as to consume one game ticket (S1185) and starts the game ( S1187). In S1187, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL301 so as to consume the game item selected by the user. Then, the control unit 11 advances the match based on the progress method specified by the user. In the case where the entire game is automatically advanced, the control unit 11 automatically advances from the start to the end of the game without the user's operation. On the other hand, when the user operates the original character in a predetermined scene, the control unit 11 automatically advances the game and causes the user to operate the original character when the game reaches the predetermined scene. The scene in which the user can operate may be predetermined. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the score that can be obtained by the user's operation is higher, so the scenes that the user can operate may be limited within a predetermined number of times. As a method of advancing a game, various well-known methods of advancing sports games may be applicable.

The control unit 11 calculates the score acquired by the user in the match based on the execution result of the match (S1189), and transmits the calculated score to the server 30 (S1119). For example, data indicating the relationship between the content or result of the match and the increase/decrease of the score is stored in the storage unit 12, and in S1189, the control unit 11 based on the score increase/decrease associated with the content of the game and the result. , Calculate the score the user has won in the match. This relationship is, for example, +1000 points if a match is won, -200 points if a goal is lost, +2000 points if the original character operated by the user makes a hit, and +100 points if the original character not operated by the user makes a hit. Is defined as.

In the server 30, when the score is received, the control unit 31 refers to the user table TBL301 to determine the ranking of the user (S3011), and determines whether the user has overtaken the score of the friend (S3013). In S3013, the control unit 31 may determine the ranking among all the users or may determine the ranking within the league to which the user belongs. If the user does not update the highest score, the processes of S3011 to S3017 may be omitted.

When it is determined that the player has overtaken (S3013; Y), the control unit 31 executes a process for sending a challenge letter to a friend (S3015). In step S3015, the control unit 31 stores the user ID in the “challenge letter” field of the record corresponding to the friend in the user table TBL301.

The control unit 31 transmits the latest ranking of the user to the user terminal 10 (S3017). When the user overtakes the score of the friend, information indicating that the challenge has been sent is also sent to the user terminal 10, and the user terminal 10 displays that fact on the display unit 15. ..

In the user terminal 10, when the ranking is received, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a screen image showing the result of the match (S1193), and when the ranking is increased, the control unit 11 displays the screen image showing the ranking. 15 is displayed (S1195). The control unit 11 updates the user table TBL301 so as to update the user ranking and the like (S1197). In step S1195, the control unit 11 displays the scores, wins and losses of both teams, the score acquired in the match, the breakdown of the score, the user's best score, the number of medals acquired, the acquired gacha points, and the like on the screen image.

On the other hand, when the user selects the processing object P152 in S1155 (S1155; P152), the control unit 11 refers to the order table TBL305 and starts the game of the limited time event based on the order for the limited time event. Is executed (S1199 to S1239). The processing of S1199 to S1239 is the same as that of S1157 to S1197, respectively. However, in S1231, the control unit 11 determines based on the order table TBL305 whether or not there is an original character to which the score bonus is given to the user's order, and if it is determined to be present, it is given to the original character. Increase score only by score bonus. When there are a plurality of original characters to which the score bonus is given, the control unit 11 increases the score by the total amount of the score bonus of each of the plurality of original characters. In this respect, S1231 and S1189 are different.

On the other hand, returning to FIG. 43, when the user selects the processing object P160 in S1011 (S1011; P160), the control unit 11 executes the process related to the challenge part (S1241). For example, data indicating the relationship between each goal to be achieved by the user, the reward, and the achievement status of the user is stored in the storage unit 12, and in S1241, the control unit 11 uses the data based on the data. A screen image showing the goals that the user has achieved and the goals that have not been achieved is displayed on the display unit 15. When the user newly achieves the goal, the control unit 11 updates the user table TBL301 so that the reward (game item, coin, etc.) associated with the achieved goal is given to the user.

When the user selects the processing object P170 (S1011; P170), the control unit 11 refers to the user table TBL301 and displays on the display unit 15 a screen image showing a list of friends who have sent the challenge letter, with reference to the user table TBL301. Then, (S1243), based on the input from the input unit 14, the opponent is determined from the friends who sent the challenge letter (S1245). The subsequent steps S1247 to S1277 are the same as steps S1165 to S1197. However, as described above, since the match ticket is not consumed in the battle with the friend using the challenge letter, S1185 is not executed.

Even when the user long-presses any material character in the event character list area A1940, the control unit 11 shifts to S1039 to display the event character screen image G400 on the display unit 15. Good.

In S1339, the control unit 11 compares the base character held in the storage unit 12 with each event character stored in the event character table TBL302, and the user owns the same event character as the base character. It is determined whether or not there is. When it is determined that the user owns the same event character as the base character, the control unit 11 increases the highest level of the base character based on the rarity of the base character and the rarity of the event character. To calculate. As the calculation method, as described above, the control unit 11 sets the probability to 100% if the event character that is the same as the base character has a rarity that is the same as or higher than the rarity of the base character, and is one step lower than the base character. If the rarity is less than 100% (for example, 30%), the probability is 0% if the rarity is two or less levels of the base character. Further, the control unit 11 may calculate such that the probability increases as the increase amount of the highest level of the base character at the present time (that is, how much it increases from the initial value of the highest level). The higher the rarity of the base character, the lower the probability may be calculated. Further, the control unit 11 refers to the "event deck" field of the original character table TBL304 to identify the number of original characters that have been trained in a state where the base character is incorporated in the event deck, and the probability increases as this number increases. May be calculated to be higher. Then, the control unit 11 causes the material character selection screen image G1900 to display the calculated probability for each event character that is the same as the base character. Since the event character different from the base character cannot increase the maximum level of the base character even when used as the material character, the control unit 11 does not calculate the probability for the event character different from the base character. The probability is not displayed on the material character selection screen image G1900.

The control unit 11 determines which processing object is selected in the material character selection screen image G1900 based on the input from the input unit 14 (S1341).

[Summary of first technology]
According to the game system 1 described above, the correspondence between the level parameter of the event character and the effect generated in the success part can be seen in the bonus detail screen image G500, so that the level parameter of the event character changes. , It is possible to easily grasp the influence on the change of the ability parameter of the main character. For example, by looking at this correspondence before the user selects the base character, the user carefully considers the effects that occur when the level parameter of the base character changes, and then selects and enhances the base character. be able to. In other words, it is possible to easily understand how much the level parameter of the base character should be changed to obtain the desired effect.

In addition, as in the present embodiment, when the effect is set for each of a plurality of stepwise divided level parameter ranges, by displaying the bonus detailed screen image G500, the relationship between each range and the effect is displayed. Can be easily grasped. That is, it is possible to easily understand to what extent the level parameter of the event character can be changed to obtain the desired effect. In addition, by dividing the range of the level parameter stepwise, the user strengthens the event character toward the next step in order to obtain a more advantageous effect, which makes it easier for the user to set a goal.

Also, since the effect associated with the range of the level parameter to which the value from the initial value to the current value of the level parameter of the event character belongs is generated, the effect that occurs at the present time and the effect that does not occur at the present time (increase the level parameter in the future These effects can be easily grasped by distinguishing them from effects that may occur) in the bonus detail screen image G500. Further, by displaying the bonus detail screen image G500 in which the effect that occurs at the present time and the effect that does not occur at the present time are displayed, the level parameter of the event character in the range of the plurality of level parameters divided in stages The range to which the current value of belongs belongs can be easily understood.

Further, like the present embodiment, by displaying the bonus detail screen image G500 when a predetermined operation is performed from the event character screen image G400, the level parameter of the event character and the level parameter of the event character can be displayed when the user wants to confirm. The correspondence with the effect can be displayed. If the correspondence information is displayed with the image for accepting the operation for selecting the base character displayed, the level parameter of the base character and the effect can be displayed on the same screen when selecting the base character. You can check the relationship. As a result, the user can confirm the relationship between the level parameter of the base character and the effect without performing a screen switching operation or the like for selecting the base character.

Further, in the material character selection screen image G1900, since it is possible to see the condition information regarding the condition for permitting the level parameter of the event character to be equal to or higher than the maximum level, the user can grasp the condition and then select the material. The character can be selected. Therefore, the user can easily determine whether or not the selected base character and material character are a proper combination. In addition, for example, the user can raise the maximum level of the event character of a certain specific practicing exercise to train a hero character having a specific tendency.

Further, in the material character selection screen image G1900, when selecting a material character, it is possible to see whether it is possible to satisfy the condition for increasing the maximum level of the base character (whether the character is the same character). Can select the material character after grasping whether the maximum level may increase. In addition, the user can easily understand whether or not the material character corresponds to the condition for increasing the maximum level, so that an erroneous selection such as selecting the material character even if the maximum level cannot be increased is made. It becomes easy to prevent. For example, in the material character selection screen image G1900, when the material character is selected, the probability that the maximum level of the base character increases can be seen. Therefore, the user grasps this probability and then selects the material character. You can choose. Therefore, the user can strategically select the material character in consideration of the probability that the maximum level of the base character will increase.

Further, if the event character is incorporated into the event deck by displaying the event power on the event character screen image G400, the effect on the training of the main character in the success part will be measured before starting the success part. Can be easily grasped.

Further, by displaying the player ability in the event character screen image G400, it is possible to easily understand which event character is selected and how advantageous it is to win the match in the success part before starting the success part. You can figure it out.

In addition, it is possible to enhance the strategic nature of the game by making the player consider whether to select an event character used in a match in the success part or an event character not used in a match in the success part.

[Summary of second technology]
Also, when performing a success part with a special character selected, such as during a limited time event, when the stadium part is advantageous, the special character is not the event character currently built in the event deck. Since it is possible to give a motivation to select, it is possible to prevent the event character incorporated in the event deck from being fixed. Further, for example, since the score bonus is given to the original character by raising the special effect character in the limited-time event, it is possible to raise the tension with the raising in the limited time. In addition, since the period during which the score bonus is given is limited, such as during a limited-time event, it is possible to suppress unlimited growth of the original character, so that the balance of strength between users is within a certain range. It can be easy to keep. That is, if the period for which the score bonus is given is not limited, the user who owns the special effect character will continue to be in an advantageous state in terms of the score, but such a state is prevented by limiting the period. be able to. Also, in a limited time event, the score bonus can be given to the original character, not the original character itself used in the game, but the special effect character, so that the effect of the game is indirectly achieved. As a result, it is possible to realize a game that has deep game characteristics and never gets tired of.

Further, in the event deck setting screen image G300, the event character change screen image G600, and the like, the information regarding the special effect character and the information regarding other event characters are distinguished, so that the user selects the event character to be incorporated in the event deck. At this time, it is possible to easily understand which is the special effect character. Therefore, the user can easily consider the best event deck including the special effect character and other event characters.

Further, in the limited time order edit screen image G2300 of FIG. 30, the score bonus given to the original character of the order and this total value are displayed, so that when the user fights the match of the limited time event in the current order, It is possible to easily understand whether a score bonus of a certain degree can be obtained. Furthermore, the user can easily consider whether to place an order with priority on the score bonus or with ability parameters.

Further, as in the event character change screen image G600 of FIG. 31, when the user selects an event character to be incorporated into the event deck, a score bonus to the hero character by the special effect character is displayed. If incorporated into, it is possible to easily understand what kind of effect will occur in the stadium part.

Further, the effect generated in the success part may be changed based on the ability parameter and the level parameter of the special effect character. In this case, the effect generated in the success part can be changed, and the success part can be changed. The interest of the part can be improved. For example, if the higher the ability parameter of the special effect character is, the higher the effect that occurs in the success part is, the special effect character with a low score bonus but a high ability parameter is incorporated into the event deck, or the special effect character with a high score bonus but a low ability parameter is used. It is possible to make the user think whether to incorporate in the event deck and improve the interest of the success part. Furthermore, for example, if the higher the level parameter of the special effect character is, the higher the effect that occurs in the success part is, the special effect character will be intensively strengthened during the limited-time event holding period and then incorporated into the event deck, or the special effect character will be Without strengthening, it is possible to think about whether to strengthen other event characters and incorporate them into the event deck, thereby improving the interest of the success part. In addition, the user can be motivated to change the parameters of the special effect character.

Also, as in the present embodiment, if an advantageous effect for obtaining a reward in the stadium part occurs, the user will select a special effect character in an attempt to obtain a large amount of reward, so that there is a motivation to select the special effect character. Can be made stronger.

Moreover, since the effect in the stadium part changes based on the parameter of the special effect character, it is possible to change the effect generated in the stadium part and improve the interest of the stadium part. Also, the user can be given motivation to change the parameters of the special effect character.

Also, if the effect is changed based on the number of hero characters having ability parameters set based on the special effect character, the ability parameters of more hero characters are changed in the success part (more hero characters are successful). You can give motivation.

Also, by making it possible to select an event character owned by another user (friend) associated with the user, it is possible to change the ability parameter of the main character based on the success part and the event character owned by the other user. it can. As a result, for example, even if the user does not have the special effect character, if another user has the special effect character, an advantageous effect can be obtained in the stadium part, and a cooperative relationship is established between the users. It can be a trigger. Further, it is possible to give the user who holds the special effect character an opportunity to show off to other users that the special character is held. In addition, by setting the stadium part as a match game, the training of the main character by the special effect character can greatly affect the win or loss of the match game, so that the special effect character can make the users more competitive. ..

[Summary of Third Technology]
Further, according to the game system 1, the good practice associated with the event character incorporated in the event deck is displayed in the good practice areas A346 and A1646, while grasping which practice is advantageous. You can select the event character (you can select the event character while knowing what practice the current event deck is advantageous for). Further, it becomes easy to understand what kind of event character should be incorporated in the event deck in order to train the main character so that the user has the desired ability.

Further, according to the game system 1, when the practicing strengths associated with the plurality of event characters incorporated in the event deck are the same, the information indicating the number is displayed in the practicing strength areas A346 and A1646 to display the information. It is possible to make it easy to visually recognize the information about the good practice of the event deck without significantly changing the mode. In addition, if the user has the same good practice associated with multiple event characters incorporated in the event deck, the ability parameter of the main character greatly increases when the user selects the good practice. The degree can be easily grasped.

Further, according to the game system 1, in the specialty practice areas A346 and A1646, the specialty practice associated with the event character incorporated in the event deck and the other specialty exercises are displayed separately. Therefore, it is easy to visually recognize what kind of hero character can be trained in the current event deck.

Further, according to the game system 1, in the practicing areas A346 and A1646, the practice when the main character is a fielder is displayed on the left side, and the practice when the main character is a pitcher is displayed on the right side. The exercises are displayed in the order determined based on the exercises. This makes it easier for the user to visually recognize the role of the main character in the current event deck.

[Summary of Fourth Technology]
Further, according to the game system 1, when the content of the scenario changes based on the options, if a specific option is selected, a specific effect occurs even if a specific event character is not selected. , A specific effect can be generated without owning a specific event character.

Moreover, according to the game system 1, since the specific option occurs only in a specific period, the user can enjoy the same scenario a plurality of times. That is, even if the user plays each section of the scenario once, since a specific option is generated during a specific period, new content can be played.

[Summary of Fifth Technology]
Further, according to the game system 1, when a result of one user exceeds that of another user, a letter of challenge is sent to provide a game in which the users compete with each other, thereby promoting competition between users. can do. Also, for example, by sending a challenge letter, communication with a friend can be activated. Furthermore, since the player does not play against an opponent who he does not know at all, but against a user who has a friendship, it is possible to reduce the psychological burden. Further, for example, when the user receives a challenge letter while playing the game, it becomes possible to play a battle in near real time, and the interest of the game can be improved. Furthermore, by sending a challenge letter when the achievement of one user exceeds the achievement of another user, the challenge letter will be sent from the user who has a relatively similar achievement, and the awareness of competition between users who have similar abilities will be increased. Can be given easily.

Further, according to the game system 1, the user who has received the challenge letter can compete using the original character owned by the user and the original character possessed by the user who sent the challenge letter. Therefore, it is possible to give a motivation to make the original character owned by each user advantageous in the battle (for example, training the original character or editing an order).

Further, according to the game system 1, the number of times the challenge is sent can be limited within a certain period. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the processing load of the server 30 due to the transmission of many challenge letters. Further, by limiting the notification of the challenge letters within a certain period, it is possible to avoid the confusion of receiving many challenge letters to the user who has received the challenge letters.

Further, according to the game system 1, the reward in the competitive game performed by receiving the challenge letter is a reward that can be advantageous to the user's achievement. Therefore, the user who sent the letter of challenge using the reward can be given an opportunity to further compete.

[5. Modification]
The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. Modifications can be made as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[5-1. Modification of First Technology]
For example, in the embodiment, in order to increase the maximum level of the base character, the condition of composition with the same material character is used, but in order to increase the maximum level of the event character, a dedicated game item may be used. Good. Further, the dedicated game item may be one or a combination of a plurality of game items. In the case of a combination of a plurality of game items, for example, when the user owns 3 game items A and 2 game items B, by consuming these 5 game items in total, The maximum level of the base character may be increased. In this case, the probability that the highest level will increase may differ depending on the game item. For example, the probability may increase as the number of game items increases, or the probability may increase as the rarity of the game items increases.

Further, for example, in order to increase the maximum level of the base character, the number of original characters trained in the success part by setting the base character on the event deck may be set as a condition. For example, the maximum level may be increased by 1 when the number of trained original characters is 3 or more, and may be increased by 2 when the number is 5 or more. That is, the greater the number of original characters trained in the success part by setting the base character on the event deck, the greater the increase number of the highest level may be.

Further, for example, based on the rarity of each of the base character and the material character, the increase amount of the highest level may be changed instead of the probability that the highest level of the base character is increased. In this case, for example, when the material character of “R” is used for the base character of “R”, the maximum level is increased by “2”, and the material character of “SR” is compared with the base character of “R”. When using, the highest level may be increased by "5". That is, the higher the rarity level of the material character, the greater the increase amount of the highest level of the base character may be.

Further, for example, in the case of strengthening a certain base character by using a plurality of material characters having the same name, a case has been described in which it is determined whether or not the maximum level is increased once for each material character. For example, in the case of strengthening by using two material characters whose probability of increasing the maximum level is "30%", the case of determining whether to increase the maximum level by 1 with a probability of 30% is explained twice. It is also possible to sum up "30%" and "30%" and determine once whether or not the maximum level increases by 1 with a probability of "60%".

[5-2. Modification of Second Technology]
For example, the special-effect character may have an effect not only on the score bonus in the stadium part but also in the training process of the main character in the success part by incorporating it in the event deck, or in the success part. An effect may be generated with respect to the training result. For example, by incorporating a special effect character into the event deck, an effect that does not occur outside the specific period may occur during the success part, or a bonus of the ability parameter is given to the main character at the end of the success part. You may do it.

Further, for example, when a special effect character is incorporated into an event deck, a period during which a specific effect is generated in a success part and a period during which an original character trained using the special effect character has a score bonus may be the same. The periods may be different from each other.

Further, for example, the case where the score bonus is given at the end of the game in the limited time event by raising the original character using the special effect character has been described, but it may be effective during the game in the limited time event. For example, the ability parameter of the original character placed in the order may be increased, or the score of the team may be increased.

Further, for example, the case where the score bonus generated by using the special effect character is displayed in the event deck setting area A340 (FIG. 32) of the event deck setting screen image G300 (FIG. 5) has been described. The screen to be displayed is not limited to this, and any screen related to the event character corresponding to the special effect character may be displayed. For example, the score bonus by the special effect character may be displayed in the event character screen image G400 (FIG. 7) of the special effect character. Similarly, the score bonus given to the original character may be displayed in the list of original characters.

Also, for example, the case where a score bonus is given when the main character is trained with the special effect character incorporated in the event deck during the limited time event is explained, but it is not the limited time event and it is before that. When the main character is trained with the special effect character incorporated in the event deck, that is, even if the main character is already trained, the score bonus may be given. That is, the hero character may be trained with the special effect character incorporated in the event deck, and the training time may be before the holding period of the limited time event.

[5-3. Modification of Third Technology]
Further, for example, any one of the plurality of good practice displayed in the good practice areas A346, A1646 (FIGS. 6, 10, 22, 32) can be selected, and the event character having the good practice selected by the user is displayed on the display unit 15. You may make it display on. In this way, the user can easily create an event deck for efficiently enhancing desired ability parameters. In this case, the practice display control unit 1190 identifies the exercise selected by the user from the plurality of exercises based on the input from the input unit 14. Then, the practice display control unit 1190 refers to the event character table TBL 302 and selects an event character that is good at the identified practice. The practice display control unit 1190 may display only the specified event character among the event characters owned by the user on the display unit 15. In addition, for example, the practice display control unit 1190 may distinguish and display the event character selected by the user as a good practice and the other event character.

Further, for example, one of the plurality of good practice areas displayed in the good practice area A346, A1646 (FIGS. 6, 10, 22, 32) can be selected, and the setting frames A344-1 to A344-5, A345 (FIG. 6). , 10, 22, 32) of the event characters (that is, the event characters currently incorporated in the event deck) indicated by the user, the event character having the practicing practice selected by the user is displayed on the display unit 15 in a distinguishable manner. You may With this configuration, for example, the user can easily specify an event character having a strong ability to want to replace, and thus can easily set a desired event deck. In this case, the practice display control unit 1190 identifies the exercise selected by the user from the plurality of exercises based on the input from the input unit 14. Then, the practice display control unit 1190 refers to the event character table TBL302 and the event deck table TBL303, and specifies the good practice of the event character currently incorporated in the event deck. The practice display control unit 1190 may acquire the helper's favorite practice from the server 30. The practice display control unit 1190 compares the practice selected by the user with the special practice of the event character incorporated in the event deck, and displays the comparison result on the display unit 15. For example, the practice display control unit 1190 distinguishes and displays the event character whose practice selected by the user is good practice and the event character whose practice selected by the user is not good practice. The practice display control unit 1190 may display the event character whose practice selected by the user is a good practice and the event character whose practice selected by the user is not a good practice in different display modes. The distinction display may be performed by changing the brightness. In this case, the event character for which the practice selected by the user is a good practice may be displayed brightly, and the event character for which the practice selected by the user is a good practice may be displayed darker than that.

[5-4. Modification of Fourth Technology]
Further, for example, a time limit may be set for the main character that can be trained in the success part. In this case, it is assumed that time information about the success part is stored in the "bringing up situation" field of the original character table TBL304. This time is the start time point of the success part, a predetermined time point after the start time point, or the deadline for playing the success part. The first game execution unit 1020 determines whether or not the present time has passed the time limit determined based on the time information, and when it determines that the time has passed, the first character execution unit 1020 interrupts the training of the main character and restarts it. You can

Further, for example, the sections selectable by the user may differ depending on the event character incorporated in the event deck. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 and the like store information indicating the relationship between each section and the event character that can be incorporated in the event deck. The first game execution unit 1020 refers to the event deck table TBL 303, identifies a section selectable by the event character incorporated in the event deck, and executes the identified section in the success part. By doing so, a specific option is generated by a specific event character, so that the user can be motivated to collect many types of event characters.

Further, depending on the combination of the specific event character and the scenario, a specific option may be generated when selecting the next section. In this case, when the combination of the specific event character and the scenario is a specific combination, a specific option occurs when selecting the next section. In this way, a specific option is generated depending on the combination of the specific event character and the scenario, so that it is possible to provide the user with an opportunity to use many event characters.

Furthermore, there may be a branch that occurs on condition that there is a specific combination of event characters in the event deck. That is, there may be a section that can be selected by the user when there is a specific combination of event characters in the event deck. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 and the like store information indicating a relationship between a predetermined combination of event characters and information regarding branching. The information regarding the branch is information indicating a section that can be selected by the user. The first game execution unit 1020 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 and determines whether or not the combination of event characters incorporated in the event deck is the predetermined combination indicated by the above information. Then, when determining that the combination is a predetermined combination, the first game execution unit 1020 causes a branch associated with the combination. In other words, the first game execution unit 1020 causes a branch that occurs only in the case of a predetermined combination, and advances the section selected by the user based on the input from the input unit 14. Here, the section may be automatically selected without the user's selection. In this way, since a specific option is generated by combining a plurality of specific event characters, it is possible to give the user an incentive to collect many types of event characters. There may be a branch that occurs on the condition that one specific event character is incorporated in the event deck instead of a combination of specific event characters. Furthermore, a plurality of specific event characters may be prepared. That is, when "A", "B", and "C" are prepared as the specific event characters, a predetermined branch may occur if only one of them is incorporated into the event deck.

Further, for example, a predetermined effect may be generated in the success part based on the combination of the section selected by the user and the event character incorporated in the event deck. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 and the like store information indicating the relationship between each section, the event character, and the effect. The first effect generation unit 1021 refers to the event deck table TBL 303 and determines whether the event character associated with the section being executed is incorporated in the event deck. When the first effect generating unit 1021 determines that the section is incorporated, the first effect generating unit 1021 generates an effect associated with the section and the event character in the success part.

Further, for example, the effect may be generated in the success part based on the combination of the sections selected by the user at present or in the past. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 and the like store information indicating the relationship between the combination of sections and the effect. Information indicating the section selected by the user is assumed to be stored in the individual data storage unit 1000. The first effect generation unit 1021 generates an effect associated with a combination of a section currently selected by the user and a past section, or a combination of a plurality of sections selected by the user in the success part. Become. In other words, when a plurality of branches occur in the success part, the first effect generating unit 1021 causes the success part to generate a predetermined effect based on the combination of the branches selected in the past by the user. Good. For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 is configured to generate a predetermined effect in the third section of the success part based on the combination of the first section and the second section selected by the user. Good. In other words, the first effect generation unit 1021 may generate an effect that occurs only when the user selects a predetermined combination of branches in the success part. For example, the first effect generation unit 1021 generates an effect generated only when the combination of the first section and the second section selected by the user is a predetermined combination, as the third effect of the success part. It may be generated in a section.

Further, for example, the selectable sections may be changed thereafter based on the combination of the sections selected by the user at present or in the past. In this case, it is assumed that the individual data storage unit 1000 and the like store information indicating a relationship between a combination of sections and selectable sections. Information indicating the section selected by the user is assumed to be stored in the data storage unit 100. The second game execution unit can select only the section associated with the combination of the sections selected by the user from the sections existing in the success part. By doing so, a specific option is generated depending on the combination of the options, so that the user can be provided with an opportunity to try the combination of the options. Therefore, it becomes possible to provide the user with a scenario that can be enjoyed multiple times.

[5-5. Modification of Fifth Technology]
Further, for example, in the embodiment, the case where the challenge letter is sent when the friend has overtaken the score has been described, but a predetermined privilege may be given to the user whose score has been overtaken. Then, the privilege may be a privilege that makes it easier for a friend who has overtaken the score to overtake. For example, a special effect character, a game item, or the like may be added to a user whose score has been overtaken by a friend so that the user can easily overtake the friend.

Further, for example, the case where the challenge letter is sent when the friend overtakes the score of a certain user has been described. However, the challenge letter may be sent based on whether or not the friend's score satisfies a preset condition. You may For example, the challenge letter may be sent when the difference between the score of the user and the friend is within a predetermined value, or the challenge letter may be sent when the friend makes a difference of more than the predetermined value with the score of the user. May be sent. Similarly, a challenge letter may be sent when the difference between the rankings of the user and the friend is within a predetermined value, or when the friend makes a difference of more than the predetermined value with the ranking of the user. A letter may be sent.

Further, for example, the case where the score of each user is reset every predetermined period has been described, but the score may not be reset. Furthermore, the timing at which the score is reset may not be the timing at which the predetermined period has elapsed. For example, the score may be reset when the user achieves a given goal.

Further, for example, the case where the high score of each user is made to compete in a predetermined period has been described, but the accumulated value of the score of each user may be made to compete. In this case, it may be a cumulative value of scores in a predetermined period or a cumulative value of scores in all past periods.

Also, for example, not all of the user's friends may be subject to the challenge. For example, among the friends, only the friend designated by the user may be the target of the challenge letter. Further, for example, when a plurality of users form a team and play, only the users of the same team may be the target of the challenge. Furthermore, only the user who has applied for a match in the past or the user who has applied for a match in the past may be the target of the challenge letter.

Further, for example, the case where the challenge letter is automatically sent has been described, but the challenge letter may be sent when the user performs a predetermined operation. In other words, instead of sending a challenge to the user immediately after the friend overtakes the user's score, the challenge is sent until the friend or the user performs a predetermined operation. Good.

Further, for example, the number of challenge letters that a certain user can send may be limited. For example, the number of times the challenge is sent may be limited, such as up to three times a day.

Further, for example, the reward for the game using the challenge may be different from the reward for the normal game. In this case, the game using the challenge may be better rewarded than the normal game. Further, for example, when a configuration is provided in which a player can play against a friend without consuming a match ticket or the like (here, a practice game), it may be possible not to obtain a medal or a ticket reward in this practice game. However, a game using a challenge may be rewarded. Further, when the reward is provided in the practice game, the reward using the challenge may be better than the reward of the practice game. Conversely, rewards may not be earned in games that use challenge letters. Further, the difference in reward may be a difference between a large amount of reward and a small amount of reward, or a difference in type of reward.

Further, for example, the challenge letter may be sent based on other than the score and the ranking. For example, in a game in which the user advances through a plurality of stages, a challenge may be sent when a friend overtakes the stage in which the user is in progress.

[5-6. Other modifications]
Further, for example, as described with reference to FIG. 3, when the user plays the success part, the event deck is set in the prepart and the main part is started, but after that, the main part is played. The contents of the event deck may not be changed inside (the event character incorporated in the event deck cannot be changed or replaced). By doing so, the main part can be started after carefully examining the training policy of the hero character and the contents of the event deck, and the game can be made more tense. Conversely, the contents of the event deck may be changeable in the main part. In this case, when the main character cannot be trained in the main part as expected, the trajectory of the main character can be corrected by reviewing the contents of the event deck on the way.

Further, for example, the case where the user selects one to be incorporated into the event deck from the plurality of event characters has been described as an example, but the number of event characters may be only one. In this case, the level changing unit 1040 changes the level parameter of one event character. Then, the first effect generation unit 1021 generates the effect on the success part regarding the change or setting of the ability parameter of the main character based on the level parameter of one event character. Further, the effect display control unit 1060 has the correspondence information indicating the correspondence between the level parameter of one event character and the effect generated by the first effect generating unit 1021 (for example, the bonus detail screen image G500 in FIG. 8). Will be executed on the display unit 15. These processes are the same as those described in the embodiment, except that the number of event characters is one.

Further, for example, although the case where the main process regarding the game is executed by the user terminal 10 has been described, the main process regarding the game may be executed by the server 30. In this case, each function described as being realized by the user terminal 10 is realized mainly by the control unit 31. Conversely, the functions described as being realized by the server 30 may be realized by the user terminal 10. In this case, the functions described as being realized by the server 30 are realized mainly by the control unit 11. Further, the processing may be shared between the user terminal 10 and the server 30.

For example, the first game execution unit 1020, the first effect generation unit 1021, and the parameter change unit 1022 may be realized by the server 30. In this case, each of the first game execution unit 1020, the first effect generation unit 1021, and the parameter change unit 1022 will transmit the execution result of the success part to the user terminal 10. Upon receiving the execution result of the success part from the server 30, the user terminal 10 stores it in the individual data storage unit 1000.

Further, for example, the change target selection unit 1030 and the level change unit 1040 may be realized by the server 30. In this case, the change target selection unit 1030 and the level change unit 1040 respectively send the base character strengthening result to the user terminal 10.
