Description

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

Conventionally, games that progress based on an object selected from among multiple objects are known. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a game in which a deck is constructed by selecting a combination of characters to be used from among multiple characters (one example of an object) before the start of the game, and the game progresses based on the characters set in the deck.

JP 2014-233323 A

However, in the game of Patent Document 1, even though a large number of characters are available, when a character that gives an advantage in the game is obtained, only that character is selected, and the contents of the deck tend to be fixed. In the game of Patent Document 1, when the contents of the deck are fixed, the story becomes similar every time and becomes monotonous, so the interest of the game cannot be sufficiently increased.

The present invention was made in consideration of the above problems, and its purpose is to provide a game system, a game control device, and a program that can improve the entertainment value of a game.

In order to solve the above problem, a game system according to one aspect of the present invention is a game system that executes a game based on an object selected from a plurality of objects, and includes: an acquisition means that acquires parameter data associated with each object for progressing the game in an advantageous or disadvantageous manner; an execution means that, when an object is selected, executes the game based on the parameter data of the object; a disadvantage change means that, when an object is selected, changes the parameter data of the object so that the progress of the game is disadvantageous; and an advantage change means that changes the parameter data of the object so that the progress of the game is advantageous based on a predetermined condition.

A game control device according to one aspect of the present invention is a game control device that executes a game based on an object selected from a plurality of objects, and includes: an acquisition means that acquires parameter data associated with each object for progressing the game in an advantageous or disadvantageous manner; an execution means that, when an object is selected, executes the game based on the parameter data of the object; a disadvantage change means that, when an object is selected, changes the parameter data of the object so that the progress of the game is disadvantageous; and an advantage change means that changes the parameter data of the object so that the progress of the game is advantageous based on a predetermined condition.

[1. Overall configuration of the game system]
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and repeated description may be omitted. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the overall configuration of a game system. As shown in FIG. 1, a game system S according to this embodiment includes a game terminal 10 and a server 30. The game terminal 10 and the server 30 are connected to a network N such as the Internet. Therefore, data communication between the game terminal 10 and the server 30 is possible. In FIG. 1, one game terminal 10 and one server 30 are shown, but there may be a plurality of them.

The game terminal 10 is a computer operated by a user. For example, the game terminal 10 is a mobile terminal (e.g., a mobile phone such as a smartphone or a tablet computer), a personal computer, a portable game machine, a stationary game machine, an arcade game machine installed in an amusement facility, or a multi-function television receiver (smart TV) equipped with information processing functions.

As shown in FIG. 1, the game terminal 10 includes a control unit 11, a memory unit 12, a communication unit 13, an operation unit 14, and a display unit 15. For example, the control unit 11 may include multiple microprocessors. The control unit 11 executes processes according to an operating system and other programs. The memory unit 12 includes a main memory unit (e.g., RAM) and an auxiliary memory unit (e.g., non-volatile semiconductor memory). The memory unit 12 stores programs and data. For example, if the game terminal 10 is a personal computer, the memory unit 12 may include an auxiliary memory unit such as a hard disk drive or a solid state drive. The communication unit 13 includes a communication module and a communication interface. The communication unit 13 performs data communication via the network N.

The operation unit 14 is an input device, and may include, for example, a key, a lever, a game controller (game pad), a pointing device such as a mouse or a touch panel, or a keyboard. For example, the operation unit 14 may also include a microphone or a camera for performing input operations by voice or gestures. The display unit 15 is, for example, a liquid crystal display panel or an organic EL display, and displays a screen according to instructions from the control unit 11. Note that the operation unit 14 and the display unit 15 do not have to be built into the game terminal 10, and may be external devices connected to the game terminal 10.

The server 30 is a server computer. As shown in FIG. 1, the server 30 includes a control unit 31, a memory unit 32, and a communication unit 33. The hardware configurations of the control unit 31, the memory unit 32, and the communication unit 33 may be similar to those of the control unit 11, the memory unit 12, and the communication unit 13, respectively. For example, the server 30 stores a game program and distributes the game program in response to a request from the game terminal 10. Also, for example, the server 30 centrally manages data relating to each of a plurality of users.

The programs and data described as being stored in the memory unit 12 or memory unit 32 may be supplied to the game terminal 10 or server 30 via the network N, for example. The game terminal 10 or server 30 may also include a reading unit (e.g., an optical disk drive or memory card slot) or an input/output unit (e.g., a USB port) for reading the programs or data stored in an information storage medium (e.g., an optical disk or memory card). The programs and data may then be supplied to the game terminal 10 or server 30 via the information storage medium.

[2. Game Overview]
The game system S of this embodiment executes a game based on an object selected from a plurality of objects.

An object is, for example, an object that can be used in a game. For example, an object is a game card, a game character, a game item, or the like. For example, all objects provided in the game may be freely usable, or usable objects may be assigned from among them. For example, an object to be used in the game may be selected from among owned objects. In this embodiment, a game card will be described as an example of an object.

Selection, for example, means designating an object as an object to be used. For example, the selected object is an object designated based on a detection signal from the operation unit 14 from among the objects displayed on the display unit 15. The object may be selected by various operations, such as tapping, double tapping, flicking, swiping, long press, or clicking.

Various types of games can be applied, such as role-playing games, action games, sports games, training games, or card games. In this embodiment, a case in which a game in which communication with a character is performed will be described as an example.

Communication can be, for example, talking to or having physical contact with a character in the virtual world within a game. Communication can also be, for example, playing with or spending time with a character in the virtual world. For example, in a game, a response can be made to a question posed by a character, or a question can be asked of a character and the character can respond. For example, physical contact can also be made with a character without any particular conversation taking place.

In this embodiment, as an example of a story, a story will be described in which a protagonist who transfers to a fictional high school meets classmates, senior students, and junior students while going about his or her school life, and increases his or her favorability ratings by communicating with each character. Also, the game does not have to be divided into multiple game parts, but in this embodiment, a game that is divided into multiple game parts will be described.

A game part is a part of a game. For example, a game part is an event, a story, or a game task (mission/quest). In this embodiment, a school part and a date part are described as examples of game parts. Communication with characters takes place in both the school part and the date part.

For example, the school part is a game part where the protagonist studies, participates in extracurricular activities, and works a part-time job. In other words, the school part is a game part where the protagonist lives his or her daily life. In this embodiment, various date spots are prepared in the virtual world, and when the game first starts, restrictions are placed on not being able to go on dates at the date spots. The school part is a game part for unlocking date spots, and has a set mission. When a mission in the school part is cleared, the date spot corresponding to that mission is unlocked. When the date spot is unlocked, it becomes possible to go on a date with a character at that date spot. Note that when the game first starts, there may be date spots that are not particularly restricted.

For example, the date part is a game part in which you go on a date with a character at a date spot. In this embodiment, the date spots are restricted, so in order to play the date part in which you go on a date with a character at a desired date spot, you need to clear the mission corresponding to that date spot in the school part and unlock the date spot.

A date spot may have multiple types of dates available, such as short dates, medium dates, and long dates. For example, the longer the date, the higher the difficulty of the mission to unlock. Also, for example, the longer the date, the more opportunities there are to select a game card in the date part (described in detail below). When a specified operation is performed on the game terminal 10, a mission selection image for selecting a mission in the school part is displayed on the display unit 15.

Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of a mission selection image. As shown in Figure 2, the mission selection image G1 displays rank and points. In Figure 2, rank is indicated by "Lv.1" and points are indicated by "AP". The display "AP 15/25" means that the current point value is "15" and the upper limit (maximum value) is "25". In this embodiment, points are consumed to play the game part and are restored over time. Points may be divided into points exclusively for the school part and points exclusively for the date part, or points may be shared by both the school part and the date part.

The rank is the level of the user or the main character, and when the experience points acquired during the game reach or exceed a threshold, the rank increases. For example, as the rank increases, the amount of points recovered increases, or the upper limit of points increases. For example, as the rank increases, the upper limit of the number of game cards that can be owned increases, or the number of users that can be registered as friends increases. For example, as the rank increases, specific game parts become executable. Points are used to play missions, and may be recovered over time, or by using game items.

The mission classification is displayed in each of the display areas A10A-A10C of the mission selection image G1. A classification is the type of mission, and in this embodiment, the name of the date spot that is unlocked by clearing the mission is displayed as the classification.

For example, the display area A10A displays a category called "Karaoke," and when a mission belonging to that category is completed, the "Karaoke" date spots are unlocked. For another example, the display area A10B displays a category called "Game Center," and when a mission belonging to that category is completed, the "Game Center" date spots are unlocked. For another example, the display area A10C displays a category called "Electric Town," and when a mission belonging to that category is completed, the "Electric Town" date spots are unlocked. Note that hereafter, when there is no need to distinguish between the display areas A10A to A10C, they will simply be referred to as display area A10.

Although it may be possible to freely challenge missions in all categories, in this embodiment, restrictions are placed on missions in some categories so that they cannot be challenged. Restricted missions can be unlocked and challenged by clearing other missions or achieving a certain rank or higher. In the example of Figure 2, the "Karaoke" and "Game Center" missions have been unlocked, but the "Electric Town" mission is restricted.

Here, we will explain the processing that occurs when "Karaoke" displayed in display area A10A is selected. When "Karaoke" displayed in display area A10A is selected, a list of missions that belong to "Karaoke" is displayed in the mission selection image G1.

Figure 3 is a diagram showing how a list of missions is displayed in the mission selection image G1. As shown in Figure 3, a description of the selected category, "Karaoke", is displayed in the display area A11 of the mission selection image G1. For example, the display area A11 displays information such as the category name (date spot that is unlocked by clearing the mission), items that can be obtained by clearing the mission, and the unlocking status of the mission (clearance status).

Although only one mission may belong to a category, in this embodiment, multiple missions belong to the category. For example, display area A12A displays information about the first mission of "Karaoke". For example, display area A12A displays the mission name, the points required to attempt the mission, and whether or not a bonus is available. Points are reduced by a value according to the attempted mission. If there are insufficient points, the mission cannot be attempted. Points may be restored under any condition, for example, over time or by game items.

Similar to display area A12A, display area A12B displays information about the second "Karaoke" mission, and display area A12C displays information about the third "Karaoke" mission. If four or more missions are available for "Karaoke", information about the fourth and subsequent missions can be displayed by scrolling. Note that hereafter, when there is no need to distinguish between display areas A12A to A12C, they will simply be referred to as display area A12.

In this embodiment, the missions are assigned an order. In the example of FIG. 3, when the mission "School Life 1-1" shown in display area A12A is completed, "School Life 1-2" shown in display area A12B is unlocked. When the mission "School Life 1-2" is completed, "School Life 1-3" shown in display area A12C is unlocked. Thereafter, the missions assigned to "Karaoke" are unlocked in order in the same manner.

For example, buttons B13A to B13C for displaying mission details are displayed in the mission selection image G1. Button B13A is a button for displaying details of the "School Life 1-1" mission displayed in the display area A12A. Similarly, button B13B is a button for displaying details of the "School Life 1-2" mission, and button B13C is a button for displaying details of the "School Life 1-3" mission. Hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between buttons B13A to B13C, they will simply be referred to as button B13.

Here, the process when button B13A is selected will be described. For example, when button B13A is selected, details of the mission "School Life 1-1" shown in display area A12A are displayed in the mission selection image G1.

Figure 4 is a diagram showing how mission details are displayed in the mission selection image G1. As shown in Figure 4, a window W14 showing the details of the mission is displayed in the mission selection image G1. For example, the name of the mission is displayed in a display area A14A of the window W14. Also, for example, the conditions for clearing the mission are displayed in a display area A14B of the window W14. Various conditions can be set as the clear conditions, but in this embodiment, the clear condition is that the increase in the protagonist's boyfriend power parameter exceeds a threshold value.

The boyfriend power parameter is a parameter that indicates the protagonist's overall attractiveness (suitability as a character's boyfriend), and there are four types: an athletic parameter that indicates high athletic ability, a knowledge parameter that indicates a wealth of knowledge, an emotional parameter that indicates a wealth of sensitivity, and an attractiveness parameter that indicates a high level of attractiveness. In the example of Figure 4, the clearing condition is to increase the athletic parameter, knowledge parameter, emotional parameter, and knowledge parameter by "20", "30", "50", and "120", respectively.

Note that there may be missions for which a threshold value for the boyfriend power parameter is not set as a clearing condition. For example, instead of repeating turns until the clearing condition is met, the mission may be one in which whether the increase in the boyfriend power parameter in a specific number of turns meets the clearing condition is evaluated. Furthermore, there may be missions in which the total increase in the boyfriend power parameter over multiple missions is evaluated.

For example, the display area A14C of the window W14 displays additional rewards that can be acquired in the mission. Any type of reward can be applied, for example, in-game currency, points, game cards, or game items. For example, the additional reward is a reward that is given in addition to the clear reward described below when a mission is cleared after meeting a certain condition. In the example of FIG. 4, if the mission is cleared within 28 turns, a game item "A" is given, and if the mission is cleared within 24 turns, a game item "B" is given. The conditions for earning the additional reward are not limited to these conditions, and any condition may be set, such as raising the attractiveness parameter to a threshold value or more within 10 turns and then satisfying the clear condition. For example, the display area A14D of the window W14 displays the reward when the mission is cleared. Note that if the button B14E is selected, the window W14 is closed, and the mission selection image G1 returns to the state of FIG. 3.

Here, the process will be described when the mission "School Life 1-1" displayed in the display area A12A of the mission selection image G1 is selected. In the mission, the boyfriend power parameter can be improved by using game cards set in the deck. The game cards are associated with effects that occur during the mission. Any effect can be applied, and for example, an effect of increasing the increase in the boyfriend power parameter, an effect of reducing the consumption of the willpower parameter described below, or an effect of generating an event in which the player communicates with a character may be associated.

In this embodiment, the deck is used not only in the school part but also in the date part, so hereafter, the deck in the school part will be referred to as the school deck, and the deck in the date part will be referred to as the date deck. A deck is, for example, a combination of game cards that are set (selected) to be used in the game part from among game cards owned. In this embodiment, a case will be described in which an upper limit is set for the number of game cards set in the deck, but there may be no particular upper limit. For example, when the mission "School Life 1-1" displayed in the display area A12A is selected, a school deck editing image for editing the school deck is displayed on the display unit 15. Editing means changing the contents of the school deck, and changing the game cards set in the school deck.

Figure 5 is a diagram showing an example of a school deck edit image. As shown in Figure 5, the display area A20 of the school deck edit image G2 displays the mission name. When button B21 of the school deck edit image G2 is selected, window W14 described in Figure 4 is displayed, and details of the selected mission are displayed.

Any number of game cards may be set in the school deck, but in this embodiment, up to five game cards can be set. Each of the display areas A22A-A22E displays the game cards set in the school deck. Note that hereafter, when there is no need to distinguish between the display areas A22A-A22E, they will simply be referred to as display area A22.

Any game card can be applied, and in this embodiment, characters that appear in the game are shown. As described above, game cards are associated with effects that are exerted during a mission. A game card may be associated with only one effect, or may be associated with multiple effects.

In this embodiment, the mission progresses by selecting a command that indicates the protagonist's action, and the type of boyfriend power parameter increases according to the selected command. At least one command is associated with a game card, and an effect occurs when that command is selected. Note that commands are selected not only in the school part but also in the date part, so hereafter, commands in the school part will be referred to as school commands, and commands in the date part will be referred to as date commands. The type and amount of increase of the boyfriend power parameter that increases will differ depending on the school command.

The display area A23 of the school deck edit image G2 shows the effects that the school deck being edited will have. For example, the display area A23 shows the effects that the school deck being edited has. In other words, the display area A23 shows the effects that the game cards in the school deck have. In the example of FIG. 5, in the school deck being edited, a bonus of "95%" is generated in the increase in the boyfriend power parameter for the school command "Fashionable". Similarly, bonuses of "145%, "75%, "145%, "120%, "115%, "50%, "100%, "70%" are generated in the increase in the boyfriend power parameter for each of the school commands "Club activities", "Music", "Preparation and review", "Art", "PE", "Hobbies", "Science", and "Workout".

For example, a button B24 for editing the school deck is displayed in the school deck editing image G2. When the button B24 is selected, the school deck displayed in the school deck editing image G2 can be edited.

Figure 6 is a diagram showing how a school deck is edited. Here, the process for editing a school deck when no game cards have been set in the school deck is explained. Note that reference symbols that do not require particular reference are omitted in Figure 6. As shown in the school deck editing image G2A in Figure 6, when no game cards have been set in the school deck, no effect of the game cards is exerted, so no effect of the game cards is displayed in the display area A23. The game cards to be set in the school deck can be selected from a list of game cards owned.

As shown in display area A22A of school deck edit image G2B, when the first game card is placed in the school deck, the effect of that game card is displayed in display area A23. In the example of FIG. 6, the first game card is associated with the effect of generating a "95%" bonus to the increase in boyfriend power parameter when the "fashionable" school command is selected, and the effect of generating a "95%" bonus to the increase in boyfriend power parameter when the "club activity" school command is selected.

As shown in display area A22B of school deck edit image G2C, when a second game card is set in the school deck, the effect of that game card is displayed in display area A23. In the example of FIG. 6, the second game card is associated with the effect of generating a "75%" bonus to the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when the "music" school command is selected, and the effect of generating an "80%" bonus to the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when the "preparation/review" school command is selected.

In this embodiment, when the effects of the same school command are associated with multiple game cards set in the school deck, the bonuses are not displayed separately in the display area A23, but rather the combined bonus value is displayed. For example, as shown in the display area A22C of the school deck edit image G2D, when a third game card is set in the school deck, the effect of that game card is displayed in the display area A23. The third game card is associated with the effect of generating a "70%" bonus to the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when the "club activity" school command is selected, and the effect of generating a "65%" bonus to the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when the "preparation and review" school command is selected.

Here, the effect of the "Club Activity" School Command is not only on the third game card, but also on the first game card, so the display area A23 of the school deck edited image G2D displays "145%", which is the sum of the effect of the first game card, "75%, " and the effect of the third game card, "70%, ". Similarly, the effect of the "Preparation and Review" School Command is not only on the third game card, but also on the second game card, so the display area A23 of the school deck edited image G2D displays "145%," which is the sum of the effect of the second game card, "80%, " and the effect of the third game card, "65%, ". In this way, when the effects of the same type of school command are associated, the effects are displayed together in one area, rather than using multiple areas to display the effects, making it easier to understand the effects while making effective use of the display space. The display area A23 is updated in the same way for the fourth and subsequent game cards.

Returning to FIG. 5, when button B25 on the school deck editing image G2 is selected, the increase in boyfriend power parameters when the school deck being edited is used in a mission is displayed for each school command.

Figure 7 is a diagram showing an example of the school deck edit image G2 when button B25 is selected. As shown in Figure 7, a window W28 is displayed in the school deck edit image G2, and the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when a school command is selected is displayed in the display area A28A. In this embodiment, when a school command is selected, the success or failure of the execution of the school command is determined, and the boyfriend power parameter increases by a value corresponding to the success or failure of the execution of the school command. The increase amount displayed in the display area A28A is the increase amount when the execution of the school command is successful (standard increase amount). Therefore, when the execution of the school command fails, the increase amount of the boyfriend power parameter is less than the increase amount displayed in the display area A28A. There may also be cases where the execution of the school command is determined to be a great success, in which case the increase amount of the boyfriend power parameter may be greater than the increase amount displayed in the display area A28A.

As mentioned above, game cards are associated with school commands that produce effects, so depending on the contents of the school deck, there may be a mixture of school commands that produce effects and school commands that do not produce effects. For this reason, in display area A28, school commands that produce effects and school commands that do not produce effects can be distinguished.

In the example of Figure 7, the school commands that are not shaded - "Science," "Art," "Music," "PE," "Club Activities," "Preparation and Review," "Workout," "Dress Up," and "Hobbies" - are school commands that have an effect when the school deck being edited is used. In other words, the school deck being edited contains game cards with which these school commands are associated. The increase in the boyfriend power parameter of these school commands is a predetermined base value increased by the effect (bonus) of the game card.

On the other hand, the school commands "Humanities", "Committee", "Part-time job", and "Going out" that are shaded are school commands that have no effect when the school deck being edited is used. In other words, the school deck being edited does not contain any game cards with which these school commands are associated. The increase in the boyfriend power parameter for these school commands is a predetermined base value. Note that, although the case where the occurrence of a bonus can be identified by the presence or absence of shading has been described here, the occurrence or absence of an effect can also be identified by various methods such as differences in color, brightness, or text size.

For example, window W28 displays button B28B for displaying the increase in boyfriend power parameter for each school command. FIG. 7 shows window W28 when button B28B is selected. For example, game cards may be designed to generate special effects in specific missions, and window W28 displays button B28C for displaying the special effects that will occur in the upcoming mission.

Figure 8 shows window W28 when button B28C is selected. As shown in Figure 8, when button B28C is selected, the display of window W28 changes, and display areas A28E and A28F show special effects that will occur when the school deck being edited is used.

The special effect can be any effect, and may be, for example, an effect that increases the number of game items acquired during a mission, as shown in display area A28E, or an effect that increases the increase in the boyfriend power parameter in an event that occurs during a mission, as shown in display area A28F. The event command shown in display area A28F is a command that indicates an action in an event that occurs during a mission. When an event occurs, the boyfriend power parameter increases according to the selected event command. When button B28D is selected, window W28 is closed and the school deck edit image G2 returns to the state shown in FIG. 5.

Returning to FIG. 5, the school deck editing image G2 displays buttons B26A-B26E for switching the school deck to be edited. In this embodiment, a case where up to five school decks can be held is described, but the number of school decks is not limited to five, and may be only one, or two to four, or six or more. The example in FIG. 5 shows a case where button B26A is selected and the first school deck is being edited. When button B26B is selected, the display of the school deck editing image G2 switches and the second school deck is edited. Similarly, when each of buttons B26C-B26E is selected, the display of the school deck editing image G2 switches and one of the third to fifth school decks is edited.

When button B27 is selected, a mission is started based on the school deck displayed in the school deck edit image G2 (the school deck indicated by the selected button among buttons B26A to B26E). When the mission is started, a mission image showing the status of the mission being carried out is displayed on the display unit 15.

Figure 9 is a diagram showing an example of a mission image. As shown in Figure 9, the display area A30 of the mission image G3 displays the mission name, the time in the game (in Figure 9, the time of day, such as morning, afternoon, or evening, and the day of the week), the number of turns remaining in the mission, the protagonist's morale parameters, and a bonus related to the success rate of the school command. The bonus may be generated randomly or based on the contents of the school deck.

In this embodiment, as an example of a mission, a turn-based mission will be described. In each turn, an opportunity to select a school command is given. If the clearing conditions are met before there are no more turns remaining, the mission is cleared, and if the clearing conditions are not met even after there are no more turns remaining, the mission is failed.

The morale parameter is a parameter that affects the success or failure of the execution of a school command. The higher the morale parameter, the higher the success rate of the school command, and the lower the morale parameter, the lower the success rate of the school command. For example, the morale parameter decreases (consumes) when a school command indicated by each of buttons B33A to B33D, described below, is executed. Also, for example, the morale parameter increases (recovers) when the "rest" school command indicated by button B33E, described below, is executed. Note that the morale parameter may change under any condition; for example, it may change when an event occurs during a mission, or when a game item is used.

For example, the display areas A31A-A31D of the mission image G3 display the conditions for clearing the mission. In this embodiment, the clear condition is to increase the boyfriend power parameter by a certain amount or more, so the display areas A31A-A31D display the increases in the movement parameter, knowledge parameter, sensitivity parameter, and charm parameter, respectively, as the clear conditions. For example, the display area A32 of the mission image G3 displays the time in the game (day of the week and month in FIG. 9) and the number of turns remaining in the mission. Time in the game passes as the turns progress.

For example, the mission image G3 displays buttons B33A to B33E for executing school commands. For example, button B33A is a button for executing the "science" school command. For example, button B33B is a button for executing the "arts" school command. For example, button B33C is a button for executing the "art" school command. For example, button B33D is a button for executing the "physical education" school command. For example, button B33E is a button for executing the "rest" school command. Note that hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between buttons B33A to B33E, they will simply be referred to as button B33.

Figure 10 is a diagram showing how a school command is executed in the mission image G3. Note that in Figure 10, reference symbols that do not need to be particularly referenced are omitted. When button B33C is selected in the mission image G3A in Figure 10, a game card that will produce an effect when the "art" school command is executed is displayed in the display area A36 of the mission image G3B. Note that the amount of willpower parameters consumed when the "art" school command is executed may also be displayed in the display area A30.

For example, the display area A37 of the mission image G3B displays the overall effect when the "Art" school command is executed. The effect displayed in the display area A37 is the same as the effect displayed in the display area A23 of the school deck edit image G2 described with reference to FIG. 5. For example, the display areas A38C and A38D of the mission image G3B display the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when the "Art" school command is executed. The value displayed in the display areas A38C and A38D is the same as the value displayed in the display area A28A of the window W28 in FIG. 7.

In mission image G3B, to execute the "Art" school command indicated by the selected button B33C, button B33C must be selected again. If you wish to change the school command to be executed, simply select another button B33. For example, as shown in mission image G3C, when button B33B is selected, the increase in boyfriend power parameter when the "Arts" school command is executed is displayed in display areas A38B and A38C. Note that here, since a game card associated with the "Arts" school command is not set in the school deck, no game card is displayed in mission image G3C, and no effect is displayed in display area A37.

When button B33B is selected again, the "liberal arts" school command indicated by that button B33B is executed. The success or failure of the school command is determined based on a success rate corresponding to the willpower parameter. The success or failure of the school command is displayed in display area A39 of mission image G3D. As described above, the increase in the boyfriend power parameter changes depending on the success or failure of the school command. The increase in the boyfriend power parameter is displayed in display areas A38B and A38C of mission image G3D. Here, the case where the school command is successfully executed is shown, and the boyfriend power parameter increases as expected.

Returning to FIG. 9, the mission image G3 displays a button B34 for automatically progressing the mission and a button B35 for retiring from the mission. When the button B34 is used to automatically progress the mission, a school command is executed based on a predetermined condition. For example, when the willpower parameter is less than the threshold, the school command "rest" selected by the button B33E may be executed. Also, for example, when the current value of the boyfriend power parameter does not meet the clear condition, the type of boyfriend power parameter with the largest difference may be identified, and a school command to increase the boyfriend power parameter of that type may be executed. Note that, if there is no school command to increase the identified type, the type of boyfriend power parameter with the second largest difference may be identified, and a school command to increase the boyfriend power parameter of that type may be executed. If there is no school command, the school command that can acquire the most boyfriend power parameters may be selected, or a school command may be selected randomly.

When a school command is executed, the story progresses and moves to the next turn. Before moving to the next turn, an event may occur in which the player communicates with a character. The event may occur randomly, or may occur when a specific school command is executed. If an event occurs when a specific school command is executed, the mission image G3 may display which school command needs to be selected to cause the event to occur, using an icon showing the character's face, for example. Another example is that an event may occur when a specific game card is set in the school deck.

In the next turn, school commands are executed in the same manner as described above. The school commands displayed in the mission image G3 may change depending on the time in the game. For example, in Figures 9 and 10, a case was described in which a school command indicating school study content is executed as a school command that can be selected in the morning on a weekday, but if the next turn is in the afternoon, a school command such as club activities or committee activities may be displayed. Similarly, in a holiday turn, school commands such as going out or working a part-time job may be displayed.

As described above, the mission progresses by selecting a school command each turn. As mentioned above, if the clear conditions are met before there are no more turns remaining, the mission is cleared. When the mission is cleared, a mission clear image is displayed on the display unit 15.

Figure 11 is a diagram showing an example of a mission clear image. As shown in Figure 11, the display area A40 of the mission clear image G4 displays the name of the cleared mission and the evaluation of the mission. As shown in the display area A41, in this embodiment, the more turns remaining when the mission is cleared, the higher the evaluation. Note that the higher the amount of boyfriend power parameters acquired in the mission, the higher the evaluation. The display area A42 displays the number of turns required to clear the clear conditions for each boyfriend power parameter. Note that when button B43 is selected, the display returns to the mission selection image G1. Here, since the "School Life 1-1" mission has been cleared, the next "School Life 1-2" mission is unlocked.

In this way, the player aims to unlock a date spot by clearing the missions set for the date spot one after another. When all the missions set for a date spot are cleared, the date spot is unlocked. When a date spot is unlocked, the player can go on a date with a character at that date spot in the date part. When a predetermined operation is performed on the game terminal 10, a date spot selection image for selecting a date spot is displayed on the display unit 15.

Figure 12 is a diagram showing an example of a date spot selection image. As shown in Figure 12, date spots are displayed in each of the display areas A50A to A50C of the date spot selection image G5. For example, the display area A50A displays a "karaoke" date spot that is unlocked when the "karaoke" mission is cleared. For another example, the display area A50B displays a "game center" date spot that is unlocked when the "game center" mission is cleared. For another example, the display area A50C displays an "electricity town" date spot that is unlocked when the "electricity town" mission is cleared. Note that hereinafter, when there is no need to particularly distinguish between the display areas A50A to A50C, they will simply be referred to as display area A50.

In the display area A50, it is possible to distinguish whether a date spot has been unlocked or not. Released date spots can be selected, while unlocked date spots cannot be selected. In the example of FIG. 12, the "Karaoke" date spot displayed in the display area A50A has been unlocked, while the "Game Center" date spot displayed in the display area A50B and the "Electric Town" date spot displayed in the display area A50C have not been unlocked. In order to unlock these date spots, it is necessary to play the school part and clear the missions.

Here, the processing of the date part will be described when the "Karaoke" date spot displayed in display area A50A is selected. In the date part, actions during the date are determined by selecting a game card set in the date deck. That is, in this embodiment, a game is played in which communication with a character is performed, and therefore each game card is associated with an action toward the character. Actions toward a character include, for example, talking, looking, touching, calling, or contacting the character.

For example, game cards are set with a durability parameter that affects the success or failure of actions during a date. The higher the durability parameter, the higher the success rate, and the lower the durability parameter, the lower the success rate. If an action during a date is successful, the likeability parameter increases significantly, and if an action during a date is unsuccessful, the likeability parameter does not increase much or decreases. In this embodiment, the durability parameter decreases (consumed) when a game card is used in the date part and increases (recovers) when a game card is not used, but may decrease or increase depending on various conditions, as described below.

For example, when the "Karaoke" date spot displayed in display area A50A is selected, a date deck editing image for editing the date deck to be used in the date part is displayed on the display unit 15.

Figure 13 is a diagram showing an example of a date deck edited image. As shown in Figure 13, the name of the selected date spot is displayed in display area A60 of date deck edited image G6. In addition, game cards set in the date deck are displayed in each of display areas A61A to A61D of date deck edited image G6.

Any number of game cards may be set in the date deck, but in this embodiment, up to eight game cards can be set. The number of game cards in the date deck may be any number, for example, 1 to 7, or 9 or more. The number of game cards in the date deck may also be increased based on certain conditions, for example, the number may increase according to rank, or the number may increase when a game item is used.

In this embodiment, a support game card can be set in the date deck, and the support game card set in the date deck is displayed in the display area A61E of the date deck edit image G6. A support game card is a game card of another user, such as a friend, and in the date part, a game card from another user can be borrowed and used as a support game card. For example, if the maximum number of game cards that can be set in a date deck is eight, then a maximum of nine game cards, including the support game card, can be used in the date part.

When there is no need to distinguish between display areas A61A-A61E, they will simply be referred to as display area A61. For example, display area A61 displays the action content associated with the game card, the type of action content associated with the game card, and the increase in the likeability parameter when a game card is selected. The date part progresses based on the action content of the selected game card. Hereinafter, the action content will be referred to as a date command, and the type of action content will be referred to as a date command type. The likeability parameter is the likeability of the character you are dating.

For example, the game card displayed in display area A61A is associated with the date command "Look at girlfriend's clothes" and the date command type "Look". For another example, the game card displayed in display area A61B is associated with the action "Put palms together" and the date command type "Put together". For another example, the game card displayed in display area A61C is associated with the action "Touch clothes" and the date command type "Interact". For another example, the game card displayed in display area A61D is associated with the action of asking the question "What do you like about me?" and the date command type "Talk". For another example, the support game card displayed in display area A61E is associated with the action "Look at (girlfriend) with a smile" and the date command type "Look".

For example, in the date deck edit image G6, the durability parameter of the game card is identifiable. The durability parameter may be displayed as a numerical value or may be displayed using a pie chart or a bar graph, but in this embodiment, it is displayed using an icon. The icon may have any shape, and in this embodiment, an icon showing a face is described as an example, but the icon may show the numerical value of the durability parameter with a symbol such as S, A, B, C, etc., or the icon may change color depending on the durability parameter. In the example of FIG. 13, the durability parameter is shown by a facial expression; for example, the higher the durability parameter, the more smiling the face, and the lower the durability parameter, the sadder the face.

For example, the "Look at girlfriend's clothes" game card displayed in display area A61A has a low durability parameter, so icon I62A has a sad face. For example, the success rate of the date command "Look at girlfriend's clothes" indicated by this game card will be very low. For example, the "Put palms together" game card displayed in display area A61B has a medium durability parameter, so icon I62A has a serious face. For example, the success rate of the date command "Put palms together" indicated by this game card will be somewhat low. For example, the "Touch clothes" game card displayed in display area A61C has a high durability parameter, so icon I62A has a smiling face. For example, the success rate of the date command "Touch clothes" indicated by this game card will not change.

In this embodiment, a game cart that exerts a special effect depending on the date spot is set, and in the display area A61, it is possible to identify whether or not the special effect is exerted. Here, whether or not the special effect is exerted is identifiable by the icon. For example, the "What do you like about me?" game card displayed in the display area A61D exerts a special effect at the "Karaoke" date spot, and the success rate of the action increases significantly regardless of the durability parameter. For this reason, the icon I62D is a smiling face. Note that for game cards exerting a special effect, the durability parameter may be regarded as being at its maximum regardless of the current value of the durability parameter, or it may be made to be more advantageous than when the durability parameter is at its maximum.

Note that here, for the support game card shown in display area A61E, no information about the durability parameters will be displayed, since these parameters do not affect the success rate.

For example, the display area A63 of the date deck edit image G6 displays the number of game cards set in the date deck for each date command type. In this embodiment, the date deck is set so that the number of game cards associated with the same date command type is equal to or less than a predetermined number. In other words, an upper limit is set for the number of game cards associated with the same date command type that can be set in the date deck. Here, the upper limit numbers for each of the date command types "listen," "speak," "see," "interact," and "make a decision" are set to 2, 3, 1, 1, and 1. The upper limit numbers may be a fixed value or a variable value. If the upper limit numbers are set to a variable value, the upper limit number may increase as the rank increases, or the upper limit number may increase when a game item is used.

In the example of Figure 13, game cards of each date command type are set in the date deck to the maximum number. For example, two game cards associated with the date command type "listen" are set in the date deck. Similarly, three game cards, one, one, and one game card are associated with the date command types "talk," "see," "interact," and "make a decision."

For example, the date deck editing image G6 may display a button B64 for automatically editing the date deck. When the button B64 is selected, the date deck is constructed based on a predetermined condition. For example, the date deck may be automatically edited taking into account the durability parameter of the game card, or the date deck may be automatically edited without considering the durability parameter. For example, if the predicted value of the increase in the likeability parameter is about the same, the game card with the higher durability parameter may be preferentially set in the date deck, or the game card to be set in the date deck may be determined by an evaluation value calculated by a coefficient according to the durability parameter. For example, the game card that has not been selected in the past may be preferentially set in the date deck, or the game card to be set in the date deck may be determined by an evaluation value calculated by a coefficient according to the small number of selections. For example, a game card that has not been selected in the past may be notified, or a game card that has been selected a small number of times may be notified. For example, if the expected value of the increase in the likeability parameter of the automatically edited date deck is higher than that of the date deck being edited, the automatically edited date deck may be proposed.

For example, a button B65 for deciding on a date deck is displayed in the date deck edit image G6. When the button B65 is selected, a window for checking the contents of the date deck before the start of the date part is displayed in the date deck edit image G6.

Figure 14 is a diagram showing how windows are displayed in the date deck edit image G6. As shown in Figure 14, the name of the selected date spot is displayed in the display area A66A of the window W66. The contents of the date deck are displayed in the display areas A66B to A66G, and the game cards set in the date deck are displayed by date command type.

Display areas A66B-A66G display an icon indicating the durability parameter of the game card, the date command, the increase in the likeability parameter, and an image of the game card. For example, if the date deck contains two game cards with the date command type "listen," information on these two game cards is displayed as shown in display area A66B. Similarly, if the date deck contains three, one, one, and one game cards with the date command types "talk," "see," "interact," and "make a decision," respectively, display areas A66C-A66G display information on three, one, one, and one game cards, respectively.

When button B66H is selected, window W66 is closed and date deck edit image G6 returns to the state shown in FIG. 13. On the other hand, when button B66I is selected, the date part starts. When the date part starts, a date part image showing the date is displayed on display unit 15.

Figure 15 is a diagram showing an example of a date part image. As shown in Figure 15, the date part image G7 displays a date with a character at a selected date spot. For example, the display area A70 of the date part image G7 displays a conversation with the character. When a predetermined operation is performed from the operation unit 14, the content of the display area A70 is updated and the conversation with the character progresses.

For example, when button B71 on the date part image G7 is selected, the date will automatically progress. For example, when button B72 on the date part image G7 is selected, an image showing the date is being stored in the memory unit 12. For example, the current value of the character's likeability parameter is displayed in the display area A73 of the date part image G7. The likeability parameter changes as the date progresses, and the success or failure of the date is determined by the likeability parameter at the end of the date. When the date ends, a reward is awarded according to the success or failure of the date. When the date has progressed to a certain extent in the date part image G7, an opportunity to select a date command type arises.

Figure 16 is a diagram showing an example of a date part image G7 when an opportunity to select a date command type arises. As shown in Figure 16, buttons B74A to B74E for executing date command types are displayed in the date part image G7. For example, buttons B74A to B74E each indicate the date command types "listen," "speak," "watch," "interact," and "make a decision." Hereinafter, when there is no need to particularly distinguish between buttons B74A to B74E, they will simply be referred to as button B74. Note that by selecting button B75, it may be possible to perform no particular action.

When button B74 is selected, game cards set in the date deck that are associated with the date command type indicated by the selected button B74 are displayed. For example, when button B74A is selected, a game card associated with the date command type of "listen" is displayed. When button B74B is selected, a game card associated with the date command type of "speak" is displayed. When button B74C is selected, a game card associated with the date command type of "watch" is displayed. When button B74D is selected, a game card associated with the date command type of "interact" is displayed. When button B74E is selected, a game card associated with the date command type of "make a decision" is displayed. Note that the process when button B74B is selected will be described here.

Figure 17 is a diagram showing an example of the date part image G7 when button B74B is selected. As shown in Figure 17, the display area A76 of the date part image G7 displays game cards associated with the date command type of "talk" indicated by the selected button B74B. In the example of Figure 17, there are three game cards associated with the date command type of "talk". For example, a game card indicating the date command "What do you like about me?", a game card indicating the date command "Call your girlfriend's name", and a game card indicating the date command "Dream for the future" are set in the date deck as game cards associated with the date command type of "talk".

For example, the durability parameter of the game card is identifiably displayed in the display area A76. Here, similar to the date deck edit image G6, the durability parameter is indicated by an icon. Also, for example, the display area A76 displays the amount of increase in the favorability parameter when the action indicated by the game card is successful. Note that when another button B74 is selected, a game card associated with the date command type indicated by that button B74 is displayed in the display area A76.

In display area A76, any of buttons B77A to B77C is selected. In the example of FIG. 17, buttons B77A to B77C are buttons for carrying out the actions of asking the question "What do you like about me?", "calling your girlfriend's name" and talking about "your dreams for the future", respectively. Hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between buttons B77A to B77C, they will simply be referred to as button B77.

When button B77 is selected, the success or failure of the action corresponding to that button B77 is determined based on the success rate calculated based on the durability parameter of the game card. For example, when button B77A is selected, the game card corresponding to button B77A has a special effect at the current date spot, so the success or failure of the action of asking the question "What do you like about me?" is determined based on a high success rate. For example, when button B77B is selected, the durability parameter of the game card corresponding to button B77B is low, so the success or failure of the action of "calling girlfriend's name" is determined based on a very low success rate. For example, when button B77C is selected, the durability parameter of the game card corresponding to button B77C is high, so the success or failure of the action of talking about "future dreams" is determined based on a medium success rate.

The likeability parameter changes based on the success or failure of the action. For example, if the action is successful, the likeability parameter increases by the amount displayed in display area A76. For another example, if the action fails, the increase in the likeability parameter will be lower than the amount displayed in display area A76. Note that if the action fails, the likeability parameter may not increase or may decrease. Also, if the action is a great success, the increase in the likeability parameter may be greater than the amount displayed in display area A76.

The date progresses as a game card is selected and an action for the character is decided. Then, after the date has progressed for a while, conversation options are presented, which are conversation options associated with the selected game card.

Figure 18 is a diagram showing how conversation options are displayed. As shown in Figure 18, multiple conversation options are displayed in display areas A78A to A78C. Here, only the conversation options shown in display areas A78A and A78B can be selected, and the conversation options shown in display area A78C are restricted so that they cannot be selected. Restricted conversation options are released and made selectable based on a predetermined condition; for example, they may be released according to rank, or they may be released when a game card is strengthened. For example, the character's likeability parameter may change based on the selected conversation option, or an evaluation separate from the likeability parameter may be performed. Also, for example, a conversation option that has never been selected, or a conversation option that has been selected infrequently, may be notified.

A date spot is set with a predetermined number of selection opportunities, and each time a selection opportunity arises, a game card is selected at each selection opportunity based on the flow described above. As mentioned above, if a date spot has multiple lengths, the longer the date time, the more selection opportunities there may be, and the shorter the date time, the fewer selection opportunities there may be.

When all selection opportunities have been completed, the date ends and the success or failure of the date is determined based on the likeability parameter. When the date part ends, a reward is given according to the likeability parameter. For example, the reward may include experience points, and the rank (player level) may increase according to the experience points. Also, for example, the reward may include a game card, and the game card may become available for use on the next date.

In this embodiment, the durability parameter of the game card selected in the date part is decreased, and the durability parameter of the game card not selected in the date part is increased. Note that in this embodiment, the durability parameter of a game card (special) that has a high success rate regardless of durability parameter is also decreased when selected, but the durability parameter of this game card may not be decreased in particular, or may be decreased by a smaller amount than usual. The game system S is configured to motivate the use of various game cards by decreasing the durability parameter when the same game card is repeatedly used, making it easier to fail actions during the date. Details of this configuration will be explained below.

[3. Functions Realized in the Game System]
19 is a functional block diagram showing functions related to the present invention among the functions realized by the game system S. In this embodiment, a case will be described in which the server 30 mainly manages data and the game terminal 10 executes main processing related to the game, but as in a modified example described later, the main processing related to the game may be executed by the server 30, or the processing may be shared between the game terminal 10 and the server 30.

[3-1. Functions realized by the server]
A data table storage unit 300 is realized in the server 30. The data table storage unit 300 is realized mainly by the storage unit 32. The data table storage unit 300 stores data for comprehensively managing data required for executing a game. In this embodiment, a date command data table DT1, a conversation option data table DT2, a school command data table DT3, and a possessed card data table DT4 will be described as examples of data stored in the data table storage unit 300. Note that the data tables described below are merely examples, and multiple data tables may be managed.

Figure 20 is a diagram showing an example of data storage in date command data table DT1. As shown in Figure 20, date command data table DT1 is a data table that shows date commands associated with game cards. For example, date command data table DT1 stores a card ID that uniquely identifies a game card, the name of the game card, the date command type associated with the game card, the date command, the basic increase amount of the favorability parameter, and the compatibility value.

The date command is a specific action to be taken when a game card is selected in the date part, and is the content displayed in the display area A61 (Figure 13) of the date deck edit image G6 and the display area A76 (Figure 17) of the date part image G7.

The compatibility value indicates the compatibility in a date scene, for example, in scenes such as morning, lunch, dinner, meals, indoors, and outdoors. The higher the compatibility value, the greater the increase in the likability parameter, and the lower the compatibility value, the smaller the increase in the likability parameter. Since compatibility is set for each scene during a date, the increase displayed in the display area A76 (Figure 17) of the date part image G7 is a basic increase amount corrected according to the compatibility value.

For example, a scene attribute may be set for a selection opportunity on a game card, or a scene attribute may be set for a date spot. Multiple scene attributes may be set for a specific selection opportunity or date spot. For example, if different scene attributes are set for each selection opportunity in a single date spot, the amount of increase in the likeability parameter will be different even for the same game card. For example, if a game card has a high compatibility value in the morning and a low compatibility value in the evening, the amount of increase in the likeability parameter may be greater when selected at the first selection opportunity on the same date than when selected at the last selection opportunity. In this embodiment, the amount of increase in the likeability parameter in the date part is determined based on the basic increase amount and compatibility value associated with the game card.

Figure 21 is a diagram showing an example of data storage in the conversation option data table DT2. As shown in Figure 21, the conversation option data table DT2 is a data table that shows the conversation options that are displayed when a game card is selected in the date part. For example, the conversation option data table DT2 stores a card ID and the content of the conversation option. The content of the conversation option is the content that is displayed in the display area A78 of the date part image G7. Note that the unlocked status of the conversation options for each user may be stored in a separate data table.

Figure 22 is a diagram showing an example of data storage in the school command data table DT3. As shown in Figure 22, the school command data table DT3 is a data table that indicates the effects of game cards that occur during the school part. For example, the school command data table DT3 stores the card ID, the name of the game card, and the effect in the school part. In this embodiment, the school part is associated with an effect such as a bonus being generated for the increase in the boyfriend power parameter when a school command is selected, so the game card is associated with the school command and the content of the bonus.

FIG. 23 is a diagram showing an example of data storage in the owned card data table DT4. As shown in FIG. 23, the owned card data table DT4 is a data table showing game cards owned by a user. For example, the owned card data table DT4 stores a user ID that uniquely identifies a user, a serial ID, a card ID, and a durability parameter. The serial ID is an ID that is issued each time a game card is granted, and is an ID that uniquely identifies a game card in the game system S. For example, the same game card may be granted to multiple users or multiple cards may be granted to the same user, so the game card may be identified by a combination of the serial ID and the card ID. Game cards may be granted in a predetermined case, and may be granted, for example, by a lottery called gacha, or may be granted as a reward in a mission or game part.

The durability parameter is an example of parameter data according to the present invention. In this embodiment, a game is played in which communication with characters takes place, and each game card is associated with an action that can be performed on a character. Therefore, the parameter data can be considered to be data for making the action associated with the game card advantageous or disadvantageous in communication with characters, for example.

For example, an advantage is making the game easier to progress through. Progress means progressing through the game. For example, an advantage is making it easier to clear the challenges in the game. It is making it easier to achieve the objective of the game. For example, in a game in which a player must succeed in a specific action, making the action easier to succeed corresponds to making it advantageous. In a game in which success or failure is determined based on the success rate, increasing the success rate corresponds to making it advantageous. In a game in which success or failure is determined based on the failure rate, lowering the failure rate corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, in a game in which a player communicates with a character, increasing the character's favorability or increasing the amount of increase in favorability corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, speeding up the progress of the game corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, in a game in which a player earns points or in-game currency, increasing the points or in-game currency, or increasing the amount of increase in the points or in-game currency corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, improving the abilities of an object corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, lowering the difficulty level set in the game corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, granting an object that can be used in the game corresponds to making it advantageous. For example, increasing the number of objects available in a game is equivalent to gaining an advantage.

For example, a disadvantage is making it difficult to progress in a game. For example, a disadvantage is making it difficult to clear a task in a game. For example, a disadvantage is making it difficult to achieve the objective of a game. For example, in a game in which a player must succeed in a specific action, making the action more likely to fail is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. In a game in which success or failure is determined based on a success rate, lowering the success rate is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. In a game in which success or failure is determined based on a failure rate, increasing the failure rate is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, in a game in which a player communicates with a character, lowering the character's favorability rating or reducing the increase in favorability rating is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, slowing down the progress of a game is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, in a game in which a player earns points or in-game currency, reducing the points or in-game currency, or reducing the increase in the points or in-game currency is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, reducing the ability of an object is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, increasing the difficulty level set in the game is equivalent to making it disadvantageous. For example, making available objects in a game unavailable would be considered a disadvantage. For example, reducing the number of available objects in a game would be considered a disadvantage.

The parameter data is data indicating at least one parameter. The parameter data may indicate only one parameter, or may indicate multiple parameters. The parameter data is data that is advantageous or disadvantageous to progress when the value changes. The parameter data may be data that is advantageous or disadvantageous as the value increases, or data that is advantageous or disadvantageous as the value decreases. For example, the parameter data indicates the durability value, ability, physical strength, mental strength, fatigue level, number of uses, or remaining number of uses of the object. In this way, the parameter data is not limited to the durability value parameter described as an example in this embodiment, and any parameter data according to the game can be applied. Note that in this embodiment, the case where the durability value parameter is managed for each game card will be described, but the durability value parameter may be managed for each action to allow various actions to be taken. For example, when a parameter that is advantageous to progress in the game, such as the number of recovery times, and a parameter that is disadvantageous to progress in the game, such as the number of uses, are referenced, these multiple parameters are referred to as parameter data.

The data stored in the data table storage unit 300 is not limited to the above examples. The data table storage unit 300 only needs to store data necessary for executing the game. For example, the data table storage unit 300 may store a user data table that stores basic information about the user. The basic information may include information such as the user's name, rank (level), experience points, points, the strengthening level of the game card, the progress of the school part, or the progress of the date part. For example, the data table storage unit 300 may store a date spot data table that stores information about date spots, a date part data table that stores conversations during the date part, or image data of various images to be displayed on the display unit 15.

[3-2. Functions realized by the game control device]
The following describes the functions realized by the gaming terminal 10. In the gaming terminal 10, a data storage unit 100, a setting unit 101, an acquisition unit 102, a determination unit 103, an execution unit 104, a disadvantageous change unit 105, an advantageous change unit 106, and a recovery unit 107 are realized.

[Data storage unit]
The data storage unit 100 is realized mainly by the storage unit 12. The data storage unit 100 stores data necessary for executing the game. For example, the data storage unit 100 stores data related to the user from among the date command data table DT1, the conversation option data table DT2, the school command data table DT3, and the owned card data table DT4 stored in the data table storage unit 300. Data storage examples of each data are as shown in Figures 20 to 23, so explanations will be omitted.

[Settings section]
The setting unit 101 is realized mainly by the control unit 11. The setting unit 101 sets a combination of game cards from among a plurality of game cards.

A game card combination is a set of game cards that are presented as options after the game starts. For example, a game card combination is a selectable combination of game cards. For example, a game card combination is a set of multiple game cards. For example, a game card combination is a deck, a group, or a team. In the game, a game card is selected from the game card combination. The game is executed based on the selected game cards.

In this embodiment, game cards are associated with commands. For example, game cards are associated with date commands and school commands. In the date command data table DT1, game cards are associated with date commands, and in the school command data table DT3, game cards are associated with school commands. Note that in this embodiment, a case is described in which game cards are shared between the date part and the school part, but game cards may be divided into game cards dedicated to the date part and game cards dedicated to the school part.

Note that a command is, for example, an action in a game. For example, a command is a choice presented in a game. For example, a command is a classification of action content indicated by a game card. Also, for example, a command may indicate a general action such as looking, listening, or talking, but in this embodiment, specific action content such as what to look at, what to listen to, and what to talk about is associated with a game card as a date command. Note that a game card may be associated with each command, or a command may be associated with each game card. That is, a game card may be associated with a command, or a command may be associated with a game card.

In this embodiment, the date command and the school command are described as examples of commands, but as mentioned above, the date command type, which is an example of a command type, is prepared for the date command. The command type is a type of command and is used to classify the commands. In other words, the command type is used to group the commands. For example, the command type indicates the type of action, such as watching, listening, or talking, and the command indicates the action content of the type indicated by the command type. Note that no particular date command type is prepared, and the date command does not have to be classified. In addition, in this embodiment, no command type is prepared for the school command, but a command type may also be prepared for the school command. For example, a command type called "study" may be prepared as a command type for the school commands of science, humanities, and art, and a command type called "extracurricular activities" may be prepared as a command type for the school commands of clubs and committees.

In addition, in this embodiment, game cards are associated with commands, and the setting unit 101 sets the combination so that the number of game cards associated with the same command or the same command type is equal to or less than a predetermined number. That is, an upper limit number that can be included in the deck may be set. The number of game cards that can be included in the deck may be the same for all commands or all command types, or a number according to the command or command type may be set. For example, the number may differ depending on the command or command type, such as three for one command or command type and two for another command or command type. The setting unit 101 sets the deck so that it is within the upper limit number. Note that the number of game cards that can be set in the deck may not be particularly limited, and an upper limit number for the entire deck may be set, rather than an upper limit number for each command or command type. In this embodiment, such a limit is set for the date deck, and the setting unit 101 sets the date deck so that the number of game cards associated with the same date command type is equal to or less than a predetermined number.

[Acquisition section]
The acquisition unit 102 is mainly realized by the control unit 11. The acquisition unit 102 acquires durability parameters associated with each game card for progressing the game advantageously or disadvantageously. In this embodiment, since the durability parameters are stored in the data table storage unit 300 or the data storage unit 100, the acquisition unit 102 acquires the durability parameters from the data table storage unit 300 or the data storage unit 100. The acquisition unit 102 acquires the durability parameters of a record in which the user ID of the user is stored from the owned card data table DT4. Note that, if the durability parameters are stored in a server outside the game system S, the acquisition unit 102 acquires the durability parameters from the server.

[Determination section]
The determination unit 103 is realized mainly by the control unit 11. The determination unit 103 determines whether or not a specific condition is satisfied based on the selected game card.

The specific condition may be any predetermined condition, and may be, for example, a condition associated with a game part when the game includes multiple game parts. For example, a specific game card corresponds to the specific condition. For example, a specific attribute or type of a game card corresponds to the specific condition. For example, a specific condition corresponds to parameter data of a game card being within a specific range. For example, a specific condition corresponds to ability values of a game card being within a specific range. For example, a specific condition corresponds to a specific condition when a game card has a specific skill. For example, a specific attribute value associated with a game card corresponds to the specific condition. The attribute value may be a value according to a time period during a date or a value according to a situation, and the specific condition may be that a specific time period or situation is associated with the game card as an attribute value. For example, the specific condition may include a condition in which a durability parameter is equal to or greater than a specific value.

In this embodiment, an example will be described in which the specific condition is that the game card is a specific game card set at a date spot. For this reason, the determination unit 103 determines whether or not the game card set in the date deck is a specific game card set at a date spot. If it is a specific game card, the determination unit 103 determines that the specific condition is met, and if it is not a specific game card, the determination unit 103 determines that the specific condition is not met.

[Executive Department]
The execution unit 104 is realized mainly by the control unit 11. When a game card is selected, the execution unit 104 executes a game based on the durability parameter of the game card.

To execute a game means, for example, progressing through the game. For example, advancing the story, passing time within the game, updating the state of the world within the game, updating data showing the game situation, executing a process that affects the progress of the game, executing a process that makes the progress of the game advantageous or disadvantageous, or making the results obtained by selecting a game card advantageous or disadvantageous are examples of executing a game.

Although the execution unit 104 executes a game process based on the durability parameter (hereinafter referred to as the first game process), if the above-mentioned specific condition is satisfied, it may execute another game process (hereinafter referred to as the second game process) instead of the first game process. That is, the execution unit 104 may execute the first game process based on the durability parameter of the selected game card when the specific condition is not satisfied, and may execute the second game process when the specific condition is satisfied. Note that in this embodiment, a case is described in which the "selected game card" in the execution unit 104 and the "selected game card" in the determination unit 103 match, but they do not have to match. That is, when multiple game cards are selected, the game card used in the process of the determination unit 103 and the game card used in the process of the execution unit 104 may be different. For example, when the game card "A" and the game card "B" are selected, the game card "A" may be used in the process of the determination unit 103, and the game card "B" may be used in the process of the execution unit 104.

For example, the first game process may be a process of executing a success/failure determination based on a durability parameter for a selected command and proceeding with the game, while the second game process may be a process of treating the selected command as a success or failure without executing a success/failure determination based on a durability parameter and proceeding with the game. Alternatively, the first game process may be a process of referring to a durability parameter corresponding to a selected command, while the second game process may be a process of updating a durability parameter corresponding to a selected command to be advantageous or disadvantageous and referring to the updated durability parameter. In other words, the first game process is a process that is influenced by the disadvantageous change unit 105 and the advantageous change unit 106 described later, and the first game process itself is not a process for making the game advantageous or disadvantageous. In other words, in the first game process, the disadvantageous change unit 105 and the advantageous change unit 106 make the game advantageous or disadvantageous, and the first game process is a process of using the durability parameter updated by these as it is. In other words, the first game process is a game execution process based on a durability parameter. On the other hand, the second game processing is processing in which the durability parameter is ignored or the execution unit 104 updates and then refers to the durability parameter, and the second game processing itself is processing for making the game advantageous or disadvantageous. In other words, the second game processing is game execution processing for progressing the game advantageously or disadvantageously. Note that the second game processing may be processing for making the game more advantageous or disadvantageous than the first game processing.

Specific examples of processing for progressing the game advantageously or disadvantageously include the processing described below. For example, in a game in which the success or failure of a specified action is determined, forcing an action to succeed, increasing the success rate, and decreasing the failure rate correspond to processing for progressing advantageously, while forcing an action to fail, decreasing the success rate, and increasing the failure rate correspond to processing for progressing disadvantageously. Note that the success rate and failure rate may be determined by the durability parameters of individual game cards, or may be determined by the durability parameters of all game cards in the date deck.

For example, in a game in which one communicates with a character, increasing the favorability rating or increasing the amount of increase corresponds to processing for progressing advantageously, while decreasing the favorability rating or increasing the amount of decrease corresponds to processing for progressing unfavorably. For example, speeding up the game progress corresponds to processing for progressing advantageously, while slowing down the game progress corresponds to processing for progressing unfavorably.

For example, in a game in which points or in-game currency are earned, gaining points or in-game currency, or increasing the amount of increase, corresponds to processing for advantageously progressing, while not allowing points or in-game currency to be gained, or decreasing the amount of increase, corresponds to processing for disadvantageously progressing. For example, improving ability corresponds to processing for advantageously progressing, and decreasing ability corresponds to processing for disadvantageously progressing.

For example, lowering the difficulty level of the game corresponds to processing for advantageously progressing, and raising the difficulty level corresponds to processing for disadvantageously progressing. For example, granting game cards that can be used in the game or increasing the number of game cards that can be used in the game corresponds to processing for advantageously progressing, and making game cards that can be used in the game unusable or reducing the number of game cards that can be used in the game corresponds to processing for disadvantageously progressing.

In this embodiment, the execution unit 104 executes the game in exchange for points associated with the user identification information. The user identification information may be any information capable of identifying the user, and may be, for example, a user ID, a user name, or an account. The exchange means consuming points. The execution unit 104 executes the game on the condition that points are consumed. If the points required for executing the game are insufficient, the execution unit 104 restricts the execution of the game, and if the points required for executing the game are available, the execution unit 104 executes the game. In this embodiment, the execution unit 104 executes the date part on the condition that points are consumed based on the consumption amount associated with the date spot. Also, the execution unit 104 executes the school part on the condition that points are consumed based on the consumption amount associated with the mission.

For example, when a date command type is selected, the execution unit 104 may display game cards associated with the date command type from among the date deck on the display unit 15, and execute a game based on the durability parameter of a game card selected from among the game cards. In this embodiment, when a button B74 indicating a date command type is selected, the execution unit 104 displays a game card associated with the date command type in the display area A76 of the date part image G7, and accepts the selection of a game card by the button B77.

[Unfavorable change part]
The disadvantageous change unit 105 is realized mainly by the control unit 11. When a game card is selected, the disadvantageous change unit 105 changes the durability parameter of the game card so as to make the progress of the game disadvantageous.

In this embodiment, a durability parameter is described as an example of parameter data, and since the durability parameter is parameter data that becomes more disadvantageous as its value decreases, the disadvantageous change unit 105 makes the game progress more disadvantageous by decreasing its value. On the other hand, when parameter data that becomes more disadvantageous as its value increases, such as a fatigue parameter, is used, the disadvantageous change unit 105 makes the game progress more disadvantageous by increasing the value of the parameter data.

The disadvantageous change unit 105 may create a difference between the durability parameter of the selected game card and the durability parameter of the non-selected game card, for example, by a method described below. This makes the durability parameter of the non-selected game card higher than the durability parameter of the selected game card, providing an incentive to select the non-selected game card next time or later.

For example, the unfavorable change unit 105 may uniformly reduce the durability parameters of all game cards, including the selected game card. In this case, differences may be created depending on how the advantageous change unit 106 recovers the durability parameters. In other words, the amount of recovery of the durability parameters of non-selected game cards may be greater than the amount of recovery of the durability parameters of the selected game card.

For example, when decreasing the durability parameters of all game cards including a selected game card, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameters of the selected game card by a larger amount than the decrease in the durability parameters of the non-selected game cards, rather than decreasing them uniformly.

For another example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may uniformly reduce the durability parameters of all game cards in the date deck, including the selected game card. In this case, the disadvantageous change unit 105 does not reduce the durability parameters of game cards that are not set in the date deck. As another example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may reduce the amount of reduction in the durability parameters of game cards that are not set in the date deck less than the amount of reduction in the durability parameters of game cards that are set in the date deck.

For example, when the disadvantageous change unit 105 reduces the durability parameters of all game cards in the date deck including the selected game card, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may reduce the durability parameters of the selected game card by a larger amount than the reduction in the durability parameters of game cards that were set in the date deck but not selected, rather than reducing them uniformly.

For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameter of a selected game card from among the game cards set in the date deck. In this case, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may leave the durability parameters of all game cards that were not selected unchanged, or may decrease the durability parameters of game cards associated with the same date command type as the selected game card, and may not decrease the durability parameters of game cards associated with other date command types.

For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameter of a selected game card based on the success or failure of the action indicated by the selected game card. For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameter of a selected game card when the action indicated by the selected game card is successful, or, conversely, may decrease the durability parameter of a selected game card when the action indicated by the selected game card is unsuccessful.

For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameter of the selected game card based on a predetermined probability or condition. For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may execute a lottery process based on a predetermined probability, and if the lottery process is won, decrease the durability parameter of the selected game card, or conversely, if the lottery process is lost, decrease the durability parameter of the selected game card. For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may decrease the durability parameter of the selected game card if a condition is satisfied, or conversely, if the condition is not satisfied, decrease the durability parameter of the selected game card.

For example, the disadvantage change unit 105 may determine the amount of change in the durability parameter of a selected game card based on the attributes of the game card. The attributes of the game card may be stored in advance in the data table storage unit 300.

The attribute is, for example, the classification or type of the game card. It is also, for example, the rarity of the game card. The relationship between the attribute and the amount of change in the durability parameter may be defined in a mathematical or table format data, or may be defined as part of the program code. The disadvantageous change unit 105 reduces the durability parameter based on the amount of change according to the attribute of the game card.

For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may increase the amount of decrease in the durability parameter the higher the rarity of the game card, and conversely, the lower the rarity of the game card, the greater the amount of decrease in the durability parameter. Also, for example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may increase the amount of decrease in the durability parameter the higher the increase in the likeability parameter of the game card, and conversely, the smaller the increase in the likeability parameter of the game card, the greater the amount of decrease in the durability parameter.

For example, since the date part is executed in exchange for points, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may determine the amount of change in the durability parameter of the game card based on the points required to execute the date part. For example, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may increase the amount of decrease in the durability parameter the more points are consumed, or conversely, increase the amount of decrease in the durability parameter the less points are consumed.

The above-described method of decreasing the durability parameter is merely an example, and the above-described methods may be combined without departing from the purpose of providing an incentive to select various game cards. Furthermore, the timing at which the disadvantageous change unit 105 decreases the durability parameter may be any timing; for example, the decrease may be immediately when a game card is selected, or at the end of a date.

[Advantageous change part]
The advantage changing unit 106 is realized mainly by the control unit 11. The advantage changing unit 106 changes the durability parameter based on a predetermined condition so as to provide an advantage in the progress of the game.

The predetermined condition may be any condition that has been determined in advance, and may be, for example, that a game is being executed, that a game part is ending, or that the game progresses to a predetermined scene. For example, the predetermined condition may be that a game card is not selected. For example, the predetermined condition may be that a game card is not selected as a selectable game card (for example, a deck, group, or team). For example, the predetermined condition may be that time has passed. Note that the time may be time in the real world, or time in a virtual world within the game. For example, the predetermined condition may be the use of a game item. For example, the predetermined condition may be that a game character is caused to perform a predetermined action.

In this embodiment, a durability parameter is described as an example of parameter data, and since the durability parameter is parameter data that is more advantageous as its value increases, the advantage change unit 106 increases the value to make the game progress more advantageous. On the other hand, when parameter data that is more advantageous as its value decreases, such as a fatigue parameter, is used, the advantage change unit 106 decreases the value to make the game progress more advantageous.

Note that it is sufficient that at least one parameter indicated by the parameter data is changed, and the parameter changed by the advantageous change unit 106 may be the same as or different from the parameter changed by the disadvantageous change unit 105. The advantageous change unit 106 may change a parameter different from the parameter changed by the disadvantageous change unit 105 to make the progress of the game advantageous. In other words, the disadvantageous change unit 105 may change a parameter different from the parameter changed by the advantageous change unit 106 to make the progress of the game disadvantageous.

For example, the advantage change unit 106 may change the durability parameter of a game card that has not been set by the setting unit 101 so as to provide an advantage in the progression of the game.

Game cards that are not set by the setting unit 101 are, for example, game cards that are not presented as options in the date part, game cards that cannot be selected after the date part starts, or game cards that are owned but are not set in the deck. In this embodiment, game cards that are not set in the date deck correspond to game cards that are not set by the setting unit 101. For this reason, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter of game cards that are not set in the date deck.

For another example, the advantageous change unit 106 may increase the durability parameters of all game cards uniformly. In this case, differences may be created depending on how the disadvantageous change unit 105 reduces the durability parameters. That is, the amount of reduction in the durability parameters of selected game cards may be made greater than the amount of reduction in the durability parameters of non-selected game cards, or the durability parameters of non-selected game cards may not be reduced, providing an incentive to select non-selected game cards.

For example, when increasing the durability parameters of all game cards, the advantage change unit 106 may, rather than increasing them uniformly, create a difference by increasing the amount of increase in the durability parameters of unselected game cards more than the amount of increase in the durability parameters of selected game cards.

For another example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameters of all game cards other than the selected game card. In this case, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameters of game cards that are not set in the date deck, or may increase the durability parameters of game cards that are set in the date deck but not selected. For another example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameters of game cards that are not set in the date deck at the end of the date.

For example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter of a game card in accordance with the passage of time in the real world. In this case, the advantage change unit 106 may make the increase per unit time of the durability parameter of a selected game card less than the increase per unit time of the durability parameter of a non-selected game card, or may count the number of times a game card is selected and set the increase per unit time according to the number of selections. The increase according to the number of selections means that the fewer the number of selections, the greater the increase per unit time, and the more the number of selections, the smaller the increase per unit time.

For example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter of a game card according to the passage of time in the virtual world within the game. In this case, the advantage change unit 106 may make the increase per unit time of the durability parameter of a selected game card less than the increase per unit time of the durability parameter of a non-selected game card, or may count the number of times a game card is selected and set the increase per unit time according to the number of selections.

For example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter of the game card according to the progress of the game part. In this case, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter of the game card as the school part or the date part progresses.

For example, the advantage change unit 106 may determine the amount of change in the durability parameter of a selected game card based on the attributes of the game card. The relationship between the attributes and the amount of change in the durability parameter may be defined in a mathematical or table format, or may be defined as part of the program code. The advantage change unit 106 increases the durability parameter based on the amount of change according to the attributes of the game card.

For example, the advantageous change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter by a larger amount the higher the rarity of the game card, and conversely, the lower the rarity of the game card, the greater the increase in the durability parameter. Also, for example, the advantageous change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter by a larger amount the higher the increase in the likeability parameter of the game card, and conversely, the smaller the increase in the likeability parameter of the game card, the greater the increase in the durability parameter.

For example, since the date part is executed in exchange for points, the advantage change unit 106 may change the durability parameter based on the amount of points consumed so as to provide an advantage in progressing through the game. For example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter by a larger amount as the amount of points consumed increases, or conversely, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter by a larger amount as the amount of points consumed decreases.

The above-described method of increasing the durability parameter is merely an example, and the above-described methods may be combined without departing from the purpose of providing motivation to select various game cards. The timing at which the advantage change unit 106 increases the durability parameter may be any timing, and for example, the durability parameter may be increased immediately when a game card is selected, or may be increased at the end of a date. As another example, the advantage change unit 106 may increase the durability parameter when points are consumed to execute the date part, etc.

[Recovery Department]
The recovery unit 107 is mainly realized by the control unit 11. The recovery unit 107 recovers points as time passes. The recovery unit 107 recovers points as time passes. For example, the recovery unit 107 acquires the current time using a real-time clock or the like, or acquires the current time from the server 30, and recovers a predetermined value of points every time a certain period of time passes. The amount of points recovered may be a fixed value, or may be an amount according to rank.

4. Processing Executed in the Game System
Next, the processing executed in the game system S will be described. Here, the processing of the school part and the processing of the date part will be described. The processing described below is executed by the control unit 11 operating in accordance with the program stored in the memory unit 12. The processing below is an example of processing by each functional block shown in FIG. 19. Note that, although a case where the processing is executed by the game terminal 10 will be described here, it is assumed that data is appropriately transmitted and received between the game terminal 10 and the server 30 and that the data between them is consistent.

[4-1. School part processing]
24 and 25 are flow diagrams showing the processing of the school part. As shown in FIG. 24, first, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a mission selection image G1 (S101). The mission selection image G1 displayed in S101 is in the state shown in FIG. 2, and the classification of the date spot displayed in the display area A10 is selected. Note that data showing the progress of the mission may be stored in the storage unit 12, or may be obtained from the server 30. The mission selection image G1 is displayed based on that data.

Based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14, the control unit 11 determines whether or not a category displayed in the display area A10 has been selected (S103). Note that in S103, categories that have not been released cannot be selected, and only categories that have been released can be selected.

When it is determined that a category has been selected (S103; Y), the control unit 11 displays the missions associated with the selected category in the mission selection image G1 (S105). The mission selection image G1 displayed in S105 is in the state shown in FIG. 3, and the missions displayed in the display area A12 are selected. Note that missions that have not been released cannot be selected, and only released missions can be selected.

When a mission displayed in the display area A12 is selected in S107 (S107; Mission Selection), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the school deck edit image G2 (S113). The school deck edit image G2 displayed in S113 is in the state shown in FIG. 5, and the contents of the school deck are displayed. Note that data indicating the contents of the school deck may be stored in the storage unit 12, or may be obtained from the server 30. The school deck edit image G2 is displayed based on that data. Also, the effects in the display area A23 are displayed based on the contents of the school command data table DT3.

The control unit 11 identifies the operation based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S115). Here, it is assumed that the operation performed is the operation of selecting button B21, the operation of selecting button B24, the operation of selecting button B25, the operation of selecting button B26, or the operation of selecting button B27.

When button B21 is selected (S115; B21), the control unit 11 displays window W14 in the school deck edit image G2 (S117). The subsequent process of S119 is the same as S111, and when it is determined that button B14E has been selected, window W14 is closed and the process returns to S115.

On the other hand, when button B24 is selected (S115; B24), the control unit 11 executes a school deck editing process based on a detection signal from the operation unit 14 (S121). In S121, as described with reference to FIG. 6, the selected game card is displayed in the display area A22, and the effect associated with the game card is displayed in the display area A23. Data indicating the contents of the school deck is updated in response to the school deck editing process.

On the other hand, when button B25 is selected (S115; B25), the control unit 11 displays window W28 in the school deck edit image G2 (S123). The school deck edit image G2 displayed in S123 is in the state shown in FIG. 7, and the increase in the boyfriend power parameter is displayed for each school command in the display area A28A. Window W28 is displayed based on data indicating the contents of the school deck and the contents of the school command data table DT3.

The control unit 11 identifies the operation based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S125). Here, it is assumed that the operation performed is to select button B28B, to select button B28C, or to select button B28D.

When button B28B is selected (S125; B28B), the control unit 11 displays the increase in the boyfriend power parameter for each school command in the display area A28A (S127). The window W28 displayed in S127 is in the state shown in FIG. 7. Note that if button B28B has already been selected, the process of S127 is not executed and there is no particular change in the display of window W28.

On the other hand, when button B28C is selected (S125; B28C), the control unit 11 displays the effect in display area A28E, and displays the increase in the boyfriend power parameter for each command in the event in display area A28F (S129). The window W28 displayed in S129 is in the state shown in FIG. 8. Note that if button B28C has already been selected, the process of S129 is not executed, and the display of window W28 does not change.

On the other hand, if button B28D is selected (S125; B28D), window W28 is closed and processing returns to S115.

In S115, when button B26 is selected (S115; B26), the control unit 11 switches the school deck to be edited (S131). In S131, the control unit 11 updates the display of the school deck edit image G2 based on the data indicating the contents of the school deck.

In S115, when button B27 is selected (S115; B27), the process moves to FIG. 25, where the control unit 11 starts the mission by consuming points (S133). The control unit 11 starts the mission based on data indicating the progress of the mission, and causes the display unit 15 to display a mission image G3 (FIG. 9).

The control unit 11 executes the mission based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S135). In S135, the control unit 11 increases the boyfriend power parameter based on the school command indicated by the selected button B33. The current value of the boyfriend power parameter is assumed to be stored in the memory unit 12. The control unit 11 increases the boyfriend power parameter based on the success or failure of the execution of the school command.

The control unit 11 determines whether the clearing conditions for the mission are met (S137). In S137, the control unit 11 determines whether the current value of the boyfriend power parameter is equal to or greater than the threshold. The control unit 11 determines that the clearing conditions are met when the current value of the boyfriend power parameter is equal to or greater than the threshold, and does not determine that the clearing conditions are met when the current value of the boyfriend power parameter is less than the threshold.

If it is determined that the conditions for clearing the mission have been met (S137; Y), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a mission clear image G4 (S139), and this process ends. In S139, the control unit 11 determines an evaluation based on the number of turns remaining when the mission is cleared, and grants a reward according to the evaluation. Furthermore, when all missions have been cleared, the control unit 11 unlocks the date spot corresponding to the mission.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the conditions for clearing the mission have not been met (S137; N), the control unit 11 determines whether or not there are no more turns remaining (S141). If it is determined that there are no more turns remaining (S141; N), the process returns to S135 and the mission is executed. On the other hand, if it is determined that there are no more turns remaining (S141; Y), the mission fails and this process ends.

[4-2. Processing of date parts]
26-27 are flow diagrams showing the processing of the date part. As shown in FIG. 26, first, the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display a date spot selection image G5 (S201). The date spot selection image G5 displayed in S201 is in the state shown in FIG. 12, and the date spot displayed in the display area A50 is selected. Note that data showing the unlocked status of the date spot may be stored in the storage unit 12, or may be obtained from the server 30. The date spot selection image G5 is displayed based on that data.

Based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14, the control unit 11 determines whether or not a date spot displayed in the display area A50 has been selected (S203). In S203, date spots that have not been released cannot be selected, and only released date spots can be selected.

If it is determined that a date spot has been selected (S203; Y), the control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the date deck edited image G6 (S205). The date deck edited image G6 displayed in S205 is in the state shown in FIG. 13, and the contents of the date deck are displayed. Note that data indicating the contents of the date deck may be stored in the storage unit 12, or may be obtained from the server 30. The date deck edited image G6 is displayed based on that data. Furthermore, the display contents of the display area A61 are determined based on the contents of the date command data table DT1, and the display mode of the icon I62 is determined based on the contents of the held card data table DT4.

The control unit 11 identifies the operation based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S207). Here, the operation is an operation to edit the date deck, an operation to select button B64, or an operation to select button B65.

When an operation to edit the date deck is performed (S207; editing operation), the control unit 11 executes editing processing of the date deck based on a detection signal from the operation unit 14 (S209). In S209, the contents of the selected game card are displayed in the display area A61, and the display mode of the icon I62 is determined based on the durability parameter of the game card. Data indicating the contents of the date deck is updated in response to the editing processing of the date deck.

On the other hand, when button B64 is selected (S207; automatic editing), the control unit 11 executes automatic editing processing of the date deck based on predetermined conditions (S211). In S211, the automatically edited content of the game card is displayed in the display area A61, and the display mode of the icon I62 is determined based on the durability parameter of the game card. Data indicating the content of the date deck is updated in response to the automatic editing processing of the date deck.

On the other hand, when button B65 is selected (S207; B65), the control unit 11 displays window W66 in date deck edit image G6 (S213). The date deck edit image G6 displayed in S213 is in the state shown in FIG. 14, and information about the game cards set in the date deck is displayed for each date command type in display areas A66A-A66G. Note that window W14 is determined based on data indicating the contents of the date deck, the contents of date command data table DT1, and the contents of held card data table DT4.

The control unit 11 identifies the operation based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S215). Here, the operation of selecting button B66H or the operation of selecting button B66I is performed. If button B66H is selected (S215; B66H), the window W66 is closed and the process returns to S207.

On the other hand, when button B66I is selected (S215; B66I), the control unit 11 consumes points to start the date part (S217). Data required to execute the date part may be stored in the storage unit 12, or may be acquired from the server 30. In S217, the control unit 11 displays a date part image G7 (FIG. 15) on the display unit 15 based on the data.

The control unit 11 progresses the date based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S219). In S219, the control unit 11 progresses the conversation with the character and updates the display in the display area A70 each time a predetermined operation is performed from the operation unit 14. When button B71 is selected, the conversation with the character progresses automatically, and when button B72 is selected, an image showing the date is recorded in the memory unit 12.

When a predetermined selection opportunity arises, the control unit 11 causes the date part image G7 to display buttons B74 and the like indicating the date command type (S221). The date part image G7 displayed in S221 is in the state shown in FIG. 16, and button B74 or button B75 is selected.

The control unit 11 identifies the operation based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S223). Here, it is assumed that the operation is to select button B74 or button B75.

When button B74 is selected (S223; B74), the control unit 11 causes the display area A76 to display a game card associated with the date command type indicated by button B74 (S225). The date part image G7 displayed in S225 is in the state shown in FIG. 17, and icons indicating the date command associated with the game card, the increase in the favorability parameter, and the durability parameter are displayed in the display area A76. Thereafter, button B77 displayed in the display area A76 becomes selectable.

The control unit 11 determines whether any of the buttons B77 has been selected based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S227). When any of the buttons B77 has been selected (S227; B77), the control unit 11 determines whether the execution of the date command indicated by the button B77 is successful (S229). In S229, the control unit 11 executes either the first game process or the second game process described above, depending on whether the selected game card is a specific game card set in the date spot. Here, when the selected game card is a specific game card, the control unit 11 determines whether the execution of the date command is successful based on the success rate corrected by the durability parameter of the selected game card. On the other hand, when the selected game card is a specific game card, the control unit 11 determines whether the execution of the date command is successful based on a very high success rate regardless of the durability parameter.

The control unit 11 changes the likeability parameter based on the success or failure of the execution of the date command determined in S229 (S231). In S231, if the execution of the date command is successful, the control unit 11 increases the likeability parameter by the amount of increase of the selected game card. If the execution of the date command is unsuccessful, the control unit 11 may increase the likeability parameter to be less than the amount of increase of the selected game card, or may leave the likeability parameter unchanged or decrease it. If the execution of the date command is a great success, the control unit 11 may increase the likeability parameter to be more than the amount of increase of the selected game card.

The control unit 11 progresses the date and displays conversation options in the date part image G7 based on the selected game card (S233). The date part image G7 displayed in S233 is in the state shown in FIG. 18, and conversation options are displayed in the display area A78. The conversation options are displayed based on the contents of the conversation option data table DT2.

The control unit 11 determines whether or not any of the buttons B79 have been selected based on the detection signal of the operation unit 14 (S235). If it is determined that any of the buttons B79 have been selected (S235; Y), the control unit 11 progresses the date based on the conversation option indicated by the button B79 (S237).

Note that if button B75 is selected in S223 (S223; B75), the process of S225 to S235 is not executed and the date proceeds.

The control unit 11 determines whether the date has ended (S239). In S239, the control unit 11 determines that the date has ended if all selection opportunities set for the date have occurred, and does not determine that the date has ended if there are still selection opportunities remaining.

If it is not determined that the date has ended (S239; N), the process returns to S221, and the next selection opportunity is given. On the other hand, if it is determined that the date has ended (S239; Y), the control unit 11 decreases the durability parameter of the game card used on the date (S241). It is assumed that the information identifying the game card selected in S227 is recorded in the memory unit 12. In S241, the control unit 11 decreases the durability parameter of the selected game card by a predetermined value. As described above, the durability parameter may be decreased not when the date ends, but when the game card is selected in S227. Also, the durability parameter may be decreased by a value corresponding to the attributes of the game card, or by a value corresponding to the points required to execute the date part.

The control unit 11 increases the durability parameter of the game cards that were not used on the date (S243). In S243, the control unit 11 increases the durability parameter of the game cards that were not selected by a predetermined value. The durability parameter may also be increased by a value according to the attributes of the game cards, or by a value according to the points required to execute the date part. The control unit 11 causes the display unit 15 to display the results of the date (S245), and this processing ends. In S245, the control unit 11 grants a reward according to the results of the date.

According to the game system S described above, the durability parameter of the selected game card changes to make the game progress unfavorable, and based on a predetermined condition, the durability parameter changes to make the game progress favorable, so that it is possible to provide motivation to select various game cards. By allowing the player to select various game cards, it is possible to prevent the game from becoming monotonous and to increase the interest of the game.

In addition, when a specific condition is met, a second game process is executed in which the game progresses advantageously or disadvantageously, providing a stronger motivation to select various game cards. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

In addition, by preventing the combinations of game cards from becoming fixed, it is possible to provide a stronger motivation to select various game cards. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous, and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

In addition, the durability parameters of game cards not set in the deck can be changed to give an advantage in the game's progress, and setting only certain game cards in the deck puts the player at a disadvantage, providing an incentive to set a variety of game cards in the deck. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous, and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

In addition, by limiting the number of game cards associated with the same command type that can be set in a combination, the strategy aspect of the game can be increased, and the interest of the game can be effectively increased. If the durability parameters are managed for each date command type, or the durability parameters of not only the selected game card but also other game cards of the same command type are reduced, selecting only game cards of the same date command type will change the game progress to be disadvantageous, so it is possible to prevent only selecting game cards of the same date command type and provide an incentive to select game cards of various date command types.

In addition, the amount of change in the durability parameter of the selected game card is determined based on the attributes of the selected game card, which can enhance the strategic nature of the game. For example, the amount of change in the durability parameter can be increased for a specific game card that tends to be selected, which can prevent only that specific game card from being selected and provide a stronger motivation to select a variety of game cards.

In addition, since the game is played in exchange for points associated with the user identification information and game play is limited, it is possible to prevent the user from quickly becoming bored by playing the game multiple times in a short period of time, thereby ensuring the interest of the game. In addition, for example, it is possible to allow the user to obtain new game cards while waiting for points to be restored, providing an incentive to select various game cards.

In addition, the amount of change in the durability parameter that will give the game an advantage can be determined based on the amount of points consumed to play the game, which can increase the strategic nature of the game.

In addition, since the game is played in exchange for points that are restored over time, and there are limitations on game execution, this more reliably prevents players from quickly becoming bored of playing the game multiple times in a short period of time, and more reliably ensures that the game remains interesting. In addition, for example, it is possible to allow players to obtain new game cards while waiting for points to be restored, providing an incentive to select various game cards.

In addition, in games in which the player communicates with characters, it is possible to provide motivation to select various game cards. In such games, if the same game card is selected over and over again, the player will end up taking the same action over and over again, but by allowing the player to select various game cards, this prevents the character from taking the same action over and over again, and allows the player to take a variety of actions toward the character. This prevents the character's reactions from becoming fixed, and allows the player to enjoy a variety of reactions, effectively increasing the interest of the game.

5. Modifications
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, in the embodiment, a case has been described in which the game cards to be used in the date part are selected from the game cards set in the date deck, but the game cards to be used may be selected from all game cards owned, rather than from game cards set in the deck in advance. In addition, for example, a predetermined number of game cards may be randomly selected from the game cards owned, and the game cards to be used may be selected from the randomly selected game cards.

In the embodiment, the main processing of the game is executed in the game terminal 10, and the game terminal 10 corresponds to the game control device according to the present invention. However, each function realized in the game terminal 10 may be realized in the server 30. For example, the main processing of the game may be executed in the server 30. In this case, the server 30 corresponds to the game control device according to the present invention. In this case, the game terminal 10 receives image data from the server 30 and displays each image on the display unit 15. In addition, the game terminal 10 transmits data indicating the instruction received by the operation unit 14 to the server 30. By receiving the data, the server 30 may identify the user's instruction and execute the game. For example, each of the acquisition unit 102, the execution unit 104, the disadvantage change unit 105, and the advantage change unit 106 may be realized in the server 30. In this case, each of these functions is mainly realized by the control unit 31. Also, for example, each function may be shared between the game terminal 10 and the server 30. In this case, the processing results of each functional block may be transmitted and received between the game terminal 10 and the server 30.

Although the above describes a case where a game is executed in which a user communicates with a character, the processing according to the present invention may be applied to other games. For example, in a game in which users compete against each other, motivation to select various objects may be provided by correcting ability parameters such as offensive power and defensive power. For example, the processing according to the present invention may be applied to sports games based on baseball, soccer, tennis, American football, basketball, volleyball, etc. For example, in addition to sports games and training games, the processing according to the present invention may be applied to various games regardless of game format or genre, such as action games and role-playing games.

13) An information storage medium according to one aspect of the present invention is a computer-readable information storage medium having the program of 12) recorded thereon.

According to the inventions pertaining to 1) or 12) to 14), the parameter data of the selected object changes to make the game less favorable, and based on a predetermined condition, the parameter data changes to make the game more favorable, providing an incentive to select various objects. By allowing the player to select various objects, the game can be prevented from becoming monotonous, and the interest of the game can be increased.

2) In one aspect of the present invention, the game system (S) further includes a determination means (103) for determining whether a specific condition is met based on the selected object, and the execution means (104) executes a first game process based on the parameter data of the selected object if the specific condition is not met, and executes a second game process in which the game progresses advantageously or disadvantageously if the specific condition is met. According to aspect 2), when the specific condition is met, a second game process in which the game progresses advantageously or disadvantageously is executed, so that it is possible to provide a stronger motivation to select various objects. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

3) In one aspect of the present invention, the game system (S) further includes a setting means (101) for setting a combination of objects from among a plurality of objects, and in the game, an object is selected from the combination. According to aspect 3), by preventing the combination of objects from becoming fixed, it is possible to provide a stronger motivation to select various objects. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous, and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

4) In one aspect of the present invention, the advantage changing means (106) changes the parameter data of an object not set by the setting means (101) so that the progress of the game is advantageous. According to aspect 4), the parameter data of an object not set in an object combination is changed so that the progress of the game is advantageous, and since it is disadvantageous to set only a specific object in an object combination, it is possible to provide an incentive to set various objects in the object combination. This makes it possible to more effectively prevent the game from becoming monotonous and more effectively increase the interest of the game.

5) In one aspect of the present invention, the objects are associated with commands, and the setting means (101) sets the combinations so that the number of objects associated with the same command or the same command type is equal to or less than a predetermined number. According to aspect 5), by limiting the number of objects associated with the same command or the same command type that are set in combinations, the strategic nature of the game is increased, and the entertainment value of the game can be effectively increased.

6) In one aspect of the present invention, the disadvantageous change means (105) determines the amount of change in the parameter data of a selected object based on the attributes of the object. According to aspect 6), the amount of change in the parameter data of an object is determined based on the attributes of the selected object, which can enhance the strategic nature of the game. For example, the amount of change in the parameter data of a particular object that tends to be selected can be increased, which can prevent only that particular object from being selected and provide a stronger motivation to select a variety of objects.

7) In one aspect of the present invention, the execution means (104) executes the game in exchange for points associated with user identification information. According to aspect 7), the game is executed in exchange for points associated with user identification information, and execution of the game is limited, so that it is possible to prevent the player from quickly becoming bored by playing the game multiple times in a short period of time, and ensure the interest of the game. In addition, for example, it is possible to allow the player to obtain new objects while waiting for points to be restored, providing an incentive to select various objects.

8) In one aspect of the present invention, the advantage change means (106) changes the parameter data so as to favor the progress of the game based on the amount of points consumed. According to aspect 8), the amount of change in parameter data when it is changed so as to favor the progress of the game is determined based on the amount of points consumed to execute the game, thereby making it possible to enhance the strategic nature of the game.

9) In one aspect of the present invention, the game system (S) further includes a recovery means (107) for recovering the points over time. According to aspect 9), the game is executed in exchange for points that are recovered over time, and the execution of the game is limited, so that it is possible to more reliably prevent the player from quickly becoming bored by playing the game multiple times in a short period of time, and more reliably ensure the interest of the game. In addition, for example, it is possible to allow the player to obtain new objects while waiting for the points to be recovered, providing an incentive to select various objects.

10) In one aspect of the present invention, the game is a game in which communication is performed with a character, each object is associated with an action toward the character, and the parameter data is data for making the action associated with the object advantageous or disadvantageous in communication with the character. According to aspect 10), in a game in which communication is performed with a character, it is possible to provide motivation to select various objects. In such a game, if the same object is selected over and over again, the player will take the same action over and over again, but by allowing the player to select various objects, it is possible to prevent the player from taking the same action over and to allow the player to take various actions toward the character. This prevents the character's reactions from becoming fixed and allows the player to enjoy various reactions, effectively increasing the interest of the game.
