<Description of Parameter Control Unit 102>
The parameter control means 102 manages parameters that are reduced when the game is executed. Specifically, when the user selects one quest when playing the game, the parameter control means 102 decreases the parameters (such as stamina) necessary for executing the quest.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when the user selects the “monster T subjugation” quest, 30 stamina is consumed (reduced).

  On the other hand, the parameter control means 102 increases a predetermined amount of stamina as the predetermined time elapses. Specifically, when the stamina is less than a specific amount (100 in the present embodiment), the parameter control unit 102 increases the stamina by 1 every 3 minutes (first time) (hereinafter, this process). (Referred to as “first stamina increase process”).

  When the stamina is equal to or greater than the specific amount (100), the parameter control means 102 increases the stamina by 1 every 20 minutes (second time) (hereinafter, this process is referred to as “second stamina increase process”). ").

  Such increase / decrease in stamina will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  In FIG. 2, 90 stamina (90 in the stamina gauge and 0 in the stamina bank) is accumulated. At this time, since the stamina is less than the specific amount, the first stamina increasing process is performed. That is, in the state of FIG. 2, the stamina increases by 1 every 3 minutes. The stamina increased by this processing is reflected in the “stamina gauge” meter and the number on the liquid crystal screen 140 (that is, the meter is increased by one stamina and 90 is updated to 91).

  In FIG. 3, 150 stamina (100 in the stamina gauge and 50 in the stamina bank) are accumulated. At this time, since the stamina is greater than or equal to the specific amount, the second stamina increasing process is performed. When the user selects the “monster T subjugation” quest, the game is executed and the stamina is reduced by 30. As a result, the remaining stamina becomes 120 (100 for the stamina gauge and 20 for the stamina bank), and the second stamina increase process is continued.

  The stamina increased by the second stamina increase process is reflected in the “stamina bank” meter and number on the liquid crystal screen 140 (that is, the meter is increased by 1 stamina and 120 is updated to 121).

  In FIG. 4, 120 stamina (100 in the stamina gauge and 20 in the stamina bank) is accumulated. At this time, since the stamina is greater than or equal to the specific amount, the second stamina increasing process is performed. When the user selects the “monster T subjugation” quest, the game is executed and the stamina is reduced by 30. Accordingly, since the remaining stamina is 90, the first stamina increasing process is executed until the stamina reaches 100 or more.

<Description of the communication means 103>
The communication unit 103 receives a game program related to the game from the server device 2. This game program is transmitted to the storage unit 11.

  Further, the communication unit 103 transmits user account information, game account information, and new game data download request information to the server device 2 based on, for example, a user operation. This game data is data such as items (for example, weapons used by player characters) that can be newly used by charging by the user.

<Description of stamina increase processing>
Hereinafter, the stamina increasing process of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the parameter control means 102 determines whether or not the accumulated stamina is less than a specific amount (100 in this embodiment) (step S1).

  When it is determined that the stamina is less than the specific amount (S1: YES), the parameter control means 102 executes a first stamina increase process.

  That is, in the first stamina increasing process, the parameter control means 102 determines whether or not the first time (3 minutes in this embodiment) has elapsed (step S2).

  When it is determined that the first time has elapsed (S2: YES), the parameter control means 102 increases the stamina by a predetermined amount (1 in the present embodiment) (step S3), and the stamina increase process ends.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the first time has not elapsed (S2: NO), the parameter control unit 102 ends the stamina increasing process without increasing the stamina.

  Returning to step S1, if it is determined that the stamina is greater than or equal to the specific amount (S1: NO), the parameter control means 102 executes a second stamina increase process.

  That is, in the second stamina increase process, the parameter control means 102 determines whether or not the second time (20 minutes in this embodiment) has elapsed (step S4).

  When it is determined that the second time has elapsed (S4: YES), the parameter control means 102 increases the stamina by a predetermined amount (1 in the present embodiment) (step S3), and the stamina increase process ends.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the second time has not elapsed (S4: NO), the parameter control unit 102 ends the stamina increasing process without increasing the stamina.

  The stamina increasing process of the present invention is executed by the above procedure. This process is repeatedly executed at predetermined intervals.

  The control means and the processing procedure described above are examples, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to these. The processing procedure and the like can be appropriately changed in design without changing the gist of the present invention.

In summary, the game program of this embodiment is
A game apparatus 1 including an operation unit 15 that receives a user's operation.
Game executing means 101 for executing a predetermined game based on the user's operation, and a predetermined parameter (for example, stamina) is decreased when the game is executed, and the parameter is less than a specific amount (for example, 100) In some cases, the parameter control means 102 increases the parameter by a predetermined amount (for example, 1 stamina) every time a first time (for example, 3 minutes) elapses.
Function as
The parameter control means 102 increases the parameter by the predetermined amount each time a second time (for example, 20 minutes) longer than the first time elapses when the parameter is equal to or greater than the specific amount. .

<Effect of the invention>
According to the game program of the present embodiment, the increase in stamina over time is continued even when the stamina is greater than or equal to a specific amount.

[Other Embodiments]
In the embodiment, the example in which the same amount of stamina is increased in the first stamina increasing process and the second stamina increasing process is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, in the first stamina increasing process, the stamina may be increased by 2 each time the first time elapses, and in the second stamina increasing process, the stamina may be increased by 1 each time the second time elapses. .

  At this time, by setting the first time and the second time to be substantially equal, when the stamina is less than the specific amount, the stamina increase amount over time is relatively large, and when the stamina is greater than the specific amount Since the increase in stamina over time is relatively small, the same effect as that of the invention described in the above embodiment can be obtained.

  In the embodiment, the example in which the stamina increase speed in the first stamina increase process is faster than the stamina increase speed in the second stamina increase process is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, when the stamina is less than a specific amount, the stamina increase speed may be relatively slow, and when the stamina is greater than the specific amount, the stamina increase speed may be relatively high. As a result, excessive consumption of stamina can be suppressed.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the example which performs either a 1st stamina increase process and a 2nd stamina increase process was shown as a stamina increase process, this invention is not limited to this.

  For example, a first specific amount (for example, 100) and a second specific amount (for example, 150) are set as the specific amount, and when the stamina is less than the first specific amount, the first time (for example, 3 minutes), the stamina is increased by a predetermined amount. When the stamina is equal to or greater than the first specific amount and less than the second specific amount, the stamina is increased every second time (for example, 20 minutes). When the stamina is equal to or greater than the second specific amount, the stamina is increased by a predetermined amount each time a third time (for example, 30 minutes) elapses (the third stamina increase process is performed). It may be.

  Accordingly, it is possible to realize a game in which the increase speed of stamina decreases as the amount of accumulated stamina increases.

  In the embodiment, the example in which the second stamina increasing process is continuously executed when the accumulated stamina is equal to or greater than the specific amount is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the control unit may function as a switching unit that interrupts the second stamina increase process. As a predetermined condition, it is set that the second increase process has been executed continuously for a predetermined time, that the game has not been logged in for a predetermined time, or that the quest has not been executed for a predetermined time. Thus, it is possible to suppress the user from leaving the game for a certain period of time.

  In the embodiment, the example in which either the first stamina increasing process or the second stamina increasing process is performed depending on whether or not the accumulated stamina is less than a specific amount is shown. The invention is not limited to this.

  For example, when the game execution means determines that the game is in a predetermined progress, the first stamina increase process and the second stamina increase are performed until a predetermined time (for example, 3 hours) elapses. Both of the processes may be performed.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the example where stamina was controlled within the game device was shown, this invention is not limited to this. For example, the server device may control the stamina and transmit the stamina information to the game device. In this case, since the stamina is controlled by the server device, it is possible to prevent fraud related to stamina by the user.

  In the embodiment, the stamina increased by the first stamina increasing process is displayed as a “stamina gauge” on the liquid crystal screen as a meter and a numeral, and the stamina increasing by the second stamina increasing process is displayed on the liquid crystal screen as “ Although an example in which meters and numbers are displayed as “stamina bank” is shown, the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, only the stamina may be displayed without displaying the stamina bank. At this time, when the stamina is displayed as a number, “130/100” is displayed. When the stamina is displayed as a meter, the amount corresponding to “100” is represented by a green meter, and the remaining “30” is displayed. It is desirable that the user can easily grasp the remaining number of staminas by displaying the amount corresponding to 1 on a red meter.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the stamina accumulated by the 1st stamina increase process and the stamina accumulated by the 2nd stamina increase process showed the same value, this invention is limited to this. Absent.

  For example, a quest executed by consuming 30 stamina accumulated in the stamina gauge (that is, stamina accumulated by the first stamina increasing process; hereinafter referred to as “first stamina”) is accumulated in the stamina bank. It may take 60 stamina to consume and execute the stamina (that is, the stamina accumulated by the second stamina increasing process, hereinafter referred to as “second stamina”).

  At this time, the first stamina is twice as valuable as the second stamina.

  Alternatively, a quest executed based on a decrease in the first stamina (hereinafter referred to as “first quest”) and a quest executed based on a decrease in the second stamina ( Hereinafter, the game may be provided with at least one of “second quest”.

  At this time, in a game including the first quest and the second quest, the second quest may be set to be more advantageous for the user in game play than the first quest. . Here, the advantageous situation includes being set so that the achievement of the quest is easy, or rare items are likely to appear.

  Thereby, a user who does not play the game for a long time is expected to play the game positively when a large amount of the second stamina is accumulated.

  Hereinafter, the quest execution process will be described with reference to FIG.

  The game execution means determines whether or not a quest execution operation has been performed by the user (step S11).

  If it is determined that the quest execution operation by the user has not been performed (S11: NO), the quest execution process ends without causing the game execution means to execute the quest.

  When it is determined that the quest execution operation by the user has been performed (S11: YES), the game execution means determines whether or not the quest requested to be executed by the user is the first quest (step S12).

  If it is determined that the quest requested to be executed by the user is the first quest (S12: YES), the parameter control means has accumulated more than the amount of the first stamina necessary for the execution of the first quest. It is determined whether or not (step S13).

  When the first stamina is accumulated more than the amount necessary for the execution of the first quest (S13: YES), the parameter control means decreases the amount required for the execution of the first quest by the parameter control means (step S14) The game executing means executes the first quest (step S15). Thereafter, the quest execution process ends.

  If the first stamina is less than the amount necessary for execution of the quest (S13: NO), the game execution means does not execute the first quest, and the quest execution process ends.

  When it is determined that the quest requested by the user is not the first quest (second quest) (S12: NO), the parameter control means requires the second stamina to execute the second quest. It is determined whether or not a sufficient amount is accumulated (step S16).

  When the second stamina is accumulated more than the amount necessary for executing the second quest (S16: YES), the parameter control means decreases the second stamina by the amount necessary for executing the second quest (step S17) The game executing means executes the second quest (step S18). Thereafter, the quest execution process ends.

  When the second stamina is less than the amount necessary for execution of the quest (S16: NO), the game execution means does not execute the second quest, and the quest execution process ends.

  The quest execution process is repeatedly executed at predetermined intervals. Note that the processing procedure is an example, and the design can be changed as appropriate based on a technique well known to those skilled in the art.

  Further, apart from the first quest and the second quest, the game may include a quest executed based on a decrease in either or both of the first stamina and the second stamina.

  In the case of a game with a quest executed based on the reduction of either the first stamina or the second stamina, the second stamina may be reduced preferentially. And when the 2nd stamina is not accumulate | stored more than the quantity required for quest execution, it is desirable to reduce a deficit from a 1st stamina and to perform a quest.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the example where stamina was reduced when a user selected the quest was shown, this invention is not limited to this. For example, stamina may be reduced at the end of the quest.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the game device is described as an example of a terminal device such as a smartphone, the present invention is not limited to this. The game device may be, for example, a stationary game device to which a display and a controller are externally connected, or a personal computer.
