Further, "giving the game medium to the user" means that the game medium is associated with the user ID as the owned game medium. Further, "discarding the game medium owned by the user" means canceling the association between the user ID and the game medium owned by the user. Further, "consuming the game medium owned by the user" means that some effect or influence can be generated in the game depending on the cancellation of the association between the user ID and the owned game medium. Further, "selling the game medium owned by the user" means that the association between the user ID and the owned game medium is canceled and the user ID owns another game medium (for example, virtual currency or item). Indicates that it is associated as a game medium. Further, "transferring the game medium owned by the user A to the user B" means that the association between the user ID of the user A and the owned game medium is canceled and the game medium is owned by the user ID of the user B. Indicates that it is associated as a game medium. Further, "creating a game medium" means defining or determining at least a part of information about the game medium. Details of the information regarding the game medium will be described later.

The game part is content that can be played by the user in the game, such as quests, missions, mini-games, training, strengthening, and synthesis of game media, game media acquisition events, virtual space exploration events, and opponents ( For example, a battle event with another user, an enemy character, an enemy building, etc.) is included. One or more predetermined tasks (game tasks) may be set for each game part. For example, when it is determined that one or more game tasks set in the game part played by the user have been successfully achieved, for example, a game medium or the like may be given to the user as a reward. The game tasks include, for example, a task of winning a battle with an enemy character, a task of reaching a goal point in a virtual space, and a state in which the user character is in a predetermined state (for example, an incapacitated state) until a predetermined time elapses. ), Etc., any task can be adopted according to the content of the game part. Further, the achievement of a specific task (clear task) among one or more game tasks set in the game part is also referred to as clearing the game part. If the user who plays the game part succeeds in achieving the clear task, it is determined that the game part is cleared, and the game part may be terminated.

The various game parts may include a game part for single play and a game part for multiplayer. The game part for single play may include, for example, a game part (for example, a game part for one person) executed based on a user operation on one terminal device 12 used by one user. For example, one terminal device 12 alone or one terminal device 12 and a server device 11 cooperate to execute a game part for single play. On the other hand, the game part for multiplayer is executed based on a user operation on two or more terminal devices 12 used by two or more users, respectively, and is a game part common to the two or more users (for example,). , Game part for multiple players) may be included. A game part common to two or more users is, for example, a game part in which at least a part of the progress processing of the game part and at least a part of the processing result are applied to the two or more users in common. May include. For example, two or more terminal devices 12 cooperate with each other, or two or more terminal devices 12 and a server device 11 cooperate with each other to execute a game part for multiplayer. One game part may support both single play and multiplayer.

The game according to this embodiment includes a specific game part for single play. The user selects one or more game media (used game media) to be used for a specific game part from the game media (owned game media) owned by the user. Hereinafter, the one or more game media used are collectively referred to as a deck. The specific game part is an action game in which the user operates the game medium (for example, a character) included in the deck and plays against an opponent (for example, an enemy character or an enemy building) appearing in the virtual space. It is a game part that includes the elements of. The opponent is, for example, an automatically operated game medium such as an NPC (Non-Player Character), but is not limited to this. For example, the opponent may be a game medium operated by another user. The type and number of opponents that appear may be predetermined, for example, by the game provider, or may be determined randomly or as the game progresses. For example, a new opponent may appear each time an opponent is defeated until a predetermined time limit has elapsed. The more opponents you win within the time limit, the higher your score. The user aims to obtain a higher score.

The specific game part is not limited to the detailed example. For example, the specific game part may be a game part including elements such as a rhythm game in which the user aims to obtain a higher score. Further, for example, the specific game part may be a game part including elements such as a racing game or a puzzle game in which the user aims for a shorter clear time.

When the user plays the specific game part, a second point (for example, score or clear time) indicating the execution result of the specific game part is calculated. In addition, a predetermined aggregation period is set for the specific game part. For each user, a second point (for example, maximum score or shortest clear time) indicating the best execution result of the specific game part within the aggregation period is stored. The second point is an index that suggests the quality of the execution result of the game part. In the present embodiment, the larger the second point (for example, the score), the better the execution result of the game part. On the other hand, in another embodiment in which the game part includes an element such as a racing game, the smaller the second point (for example, the clear time), the better the execution result of the game part may be.

In addition, a plurality of user groups to which one or more users belong are defined. The first point is stored for each user group. The first point is an index that suggests the quality of the execution result of the game part for each user group. For example, the first point may be determined based on the second point indicating the best execution result of a specific game part by one or more users belonging to the user group. For example, the first point may be the total value of the second points of one or more users (for example, the total value of the maximum score or the total value of the shortest clear time). In addition, the ranking of each of the plurality of user groups is determined based on the first point. Then, when the aggregation period ends, for example, a game medium or the like is given as a reward to each user belonging to a higher-level user group.

(Configuration of server device)
The configuration of the server device 11 will be specifically described. The server device 11 includes a server communication unit 14, a server storage unit 15, and a server control unit 16.

The server communication unit 14 includes an interface that communicates with an external device wirelessly or by wire to transmit and receive information. The server communication unit 14 may include, for example, a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) communication module, a wired LAN communication module, or the like. The server communication unit 14 can send and receive information to and from the terminal device 12 via the network 13.

The server storage unit 15 includes, for example, a primary storage device and a secondary storage device.

At least a part of the information and the program stored in the server storage unit 15 may be shared and synchronized with the terminal device 12. Hereinafter, examples of information used in game processing will be specifically described.

(Information about users)
The server storage unit 15 stores information about the user. Information about the user will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 shows information about each of two or more users. Information about a user includes various information specific to that user. For example, the information about the user includes a user ID, a user name, and information about a game medium. In the information about the user, the user name and the information about the game medium are associated with the user ID.

The user ID is information that can uniquely identify the user. Hereinafter, the user ID is also simply referred to as a user.

The user name is information indicating the name of the user. Unlike the user ID, the user name does not have to be able to uniquely identify the user. The user name may be determined and changed according to the user operation on the terminal device 12.

The information about the game medium includes various information specific to the owned game medium owned by the user in the game. When the game medium is acquired by the user, the game medium is associated with the user as the owned game medium. The information about the game medium may include, for example, a game medium ID, a game medium name, a game parameter, image data indicating the game medium, and the like.

The game medium ID is information that can uniquely identify the game medium alone or in combination with the user ID. Hereinafter, the game medium ID is also simply referred to as a game medium.

The game medium name is information indicating the name of the game medium. The game medium name does not have to be uniquely identifiable as the game medium, unlike the game medium ID. The initial value of the game medium name may be predetermined by, for example, the game provider. The game medium name may be arbitrarily determined and changed according to the user operation on the terminal device 12.

The game parameters include various parameters used for various processes related to the game medium. For example, the game parameters may include the soundness of the game medium, the attack power, and the like.

The soundness is a parameter indicating the degree of deterioration of the game medium during the execution of the specific game part. For example, the soundness may include the physical strength of the character, the durability of the building, and the like. When the soundness is reduced to a predetermined value, at least a part of the functions of the game medium becomes invalid during the execution of the specific game part. For example, when the physical strength of the character decreases to a predetermined value (for example, zero), the character may become incapacitated. Also, for example, when the durability of a building decreases to a predetermined value (for example, zero), the building may collapse. Therefore, the greater the soundness of the game medium used by the user, the more advantageous it is to the user.

The attack power is a parameter that contributes to the amount of damage given to the opponent game medium by, for example, an attack on the game medium. The greater the attack power value, the greater the amount of damage done to the opponent. For example, the health of an opponent is reduced by the amount of damage given to the opponent. When the soundness of an opponent is reduced to a predetermined value, it may be determined that the opponent has won the battle. Therefore, the greater the attack power of the game medium used by the user, the more advantageous the user.

The content of the information about the user is not limited to the above. For example, information about the user may include information about one or more decks. The deck information is information indicating a combination of one or more game media used for executing a game part among the game media owned by the user. Further, for example, the contents of the above-mentioned game parameters may differ depending on the contents of the specific game part. For example, in other embodiments where the particular game part is a game part that includes elements of a racing game, the game parameters may include the maximum speed and acceleration of the game medium (eg, a vehicle).

(Information about user groups)
The server storage unit 15 shown in FIG. 1 stores information about a user group. Information about user groups will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 shows information about each of two or more user groups. Information about a user group includes various information specific to the user group. For example, information about a user group includes a user group ID, a user group name, and member information. In the information about the user group, the user group name and the member information are associated with the user group ID.

The user group ID is information that can uniquely identify the user group. Hereinafter, the user group ID is also simply referred to as a user group.

The user group name is information indicating the name of the user group. Unlike the user group ID, the user group name does not have to be able to uniquely identify the user group. The user group name may be determined and changed according to the user operation on the terminal device 12.

The member information includes a user ID of each user belonging to the user group. For example, in the member information shown in FIG. 3, two users "user 001" and "user 002" belong to the user group "group 001", and one user "user 011" belongs to the user group "group 002". Indicates that it belongs. The maximum number of users who can belong to the user group (for example, 20 people) may be set. Hereinafter, the user associated with the user group in the information about the user group is also referred to as a member of the user group.

One or more users (administrative users) belonging to a user group may have predetermined authority. For example, the management user may have the authority to decide whether to allow other users to join the user group and whether to leave the user group. Also, for example, the management user may have the authority to change the provision table corresponding to the user group. The provided table will be described later.

(Information about the game part)
The server storage unit 15 shown in FIG. 1 stores information about the game part. Information about the game part will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 shows information about each of two or more specific game parts. Hereinafter, the specific game part is also simply referred to as a game part. The information about the game part includes various information specific to the game part. For example, the information about the game part includes the game part ID, the game part name, the game data, the aggregation period, and the group set information. In the information about the game part, the game part name, the game data, the aggregation period, and the group set information are associated with the game part ID.

The game part ID is information that can uniquely identify the game part. Hereinafter, the game part ID is also simply referred to as a game part.

The game part name is information indicating the name of the game part. Unlike the game part ID, the game part name does not have to be able to uniquely identify the game part. The game medium name may be predetermined, for example, by the game provider.

The game data includes various information used to execute the game part. For example, the game data may include so-called asset data such as image data and audio data used for executing the game part. The game data may include information about the game medium (for example, an enemy character or an enemy building) that is an opponent. As will be described later, the server device 11 may transmit game data to the terminal device 12. The terminal device 12 can execute the game part using the received game data.

The aggregation period is information indicating a predetermined period. The aggregation period may be predetermined, for example, by the game provider. As will be described later, ranking information including a second point (for example, the maximum score) indicating the best execution result of the specific game part within the aggregation period is stored in the server storage unit 15 for each user.

The group set information includes a set ID and a plurality of user group IDs. In the group set information, a plurality of user group IDs are associated with the set ID.

The set ID is information that can identify a plurality of user groups in combination with the game part ID. A plurality of user groups associated with the combination of the set ID and the game part ID may be predetermined by, for example, the game provider before the start of the aggregation period of the game part. Alternatively, the plurality of user groups associated with the combination of the set ID and the game part ID may be determined by the server device 11 before the start of the aggregation period of the game part. In the present embodiment, in one game part, one user group is associated with any one set ID, but may be associated with a plurality of set IDs. Ranking information, which will be described later, is associated with each combination of the set ID and the game part ID.

(Ranking information)
The server storage unit 15 shown in FIG. 1 stores ranking information for each combination of the set ID and the game part ID. Ranking information will be described with reference to FIG. For example, FIG. 5 shows ranking information corresponding to a combination of the game part ID “part 001” and the set ID “set 001”. The ranking information includes, for example, a plurality of user group IDs, a plurality of first points corresponding to the plurality of user group IDs, and a ranking of each of the plurality of user groups. The ranking information may further include one or more user IDs corresponding to each user group ID and a second point corresponding to each user ID.

The plurality of user group IDs are a plurality of user group IDs associated with the combination of the set ID and the game part ID in the above-mentioned information regarding the game part.

The plurality of first points are parameters associated with the user group. For example, the first point may be the total value of the second points corresponding to each user ID associated with the user group in the ranking information.

The ranking indicates the ranking of each of the plurality of user groups determined based on the plurality of first points. For example, the larger (or smaller) the corresponding first point, the higher the ranking of the user group. For example, the rank of the user group whose corresponding first point is the maximum (or minimum) is set to the highest rank.

One or more user IDs are users who played the game part while belonging to the corresponding user group, and the second point indicating the best execution result of the game part within the aggregation period is determined. The user ID of the user. As described above, the first point of the user group is the total value of the second points of each user associated with the user group. Therefore, the user associated with the user group in the ranking information suggests a user who contributes to the ranking of the user group in that it is involved in determining the ranking (or the first point) of the user group. ing. In the ranking information, the maximum number of users associated with one user group (for example, 20 people) may be set. Hereinafter, the user associated with the user group in the ranking information is also referred to as a contributing user corresponding to the user group.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, two or more users including "user 001" and "user 002" contributed to the ranking of the user group "group 001". In addition, two or more users including "user 101" and "user 102" contributed to the ranking of the user group "group 100".

On the other hand, the first point of the user group "group 002" is null, and there is no user who contributed to the ranking of the user group. This suggests, for example, that none of the users belonging to the user group "Group 002" has played the game part within the aggregation period, or even if they have played it, the second point has not been determined. .. For example, if the game is over during the play of the game part, the second point may not be determined. On the other hand, if the clear task is achieved without the game being over during the play of the game part, a second point indicating the execution result of the game part may be determined.

The second point is a second point indicating the best execution result of the game part, which is determined by the corresponding user playing the game part within the aggregation period.

Specifically, when a user belonging to a user group plays a game part and a second point indicating the best execution result of the game part within the aggregation period is determined, the user and the second point are ranked. The information is associated with the user group.

In the present embodiment, the correspondence between the user and the user group in the ranking information is managed independently of the correspondence between the user and the user group in the above-mentioned information about the user group. That is, the members of the user group and the contributing users corresponding to the user group do not always match. For example, consider a case where a user (and a second point) is associated with a user group in the ranking information and then the user leaves the user group. In such a case, the withdrawal cancels the association between the user and the user group in the information about the user group. On the other hand, the association between the user (and the second point) and the user group in the ranking information is not immediately resolved. In such a case, the user is not a member of the user group, but may be a contributing user corresponding to the user group.

In another embodiment, withdrawal eliminates the association between the user and the user group in the information about the user group, and associates the user (and the second point) with the user group in the ranking information. May be resolved. By canceling the association in the ranking information, the user ID of the user and the second point are deleted from the ranking information. In such a case, the first point of the user group is reduced by, for example, the second point of the user. The ranking of the user group may change due to the decrease of the first point of the user group.

In the ranking information, the upper limit number of contributing users (for example, 20 people) associated with one user group may be set. A case where the maximum number of contributing users are already associated with the user group in the ranking information will be described.

In such a case, the execution of the game part by the terminal device 12 of the new member who newly joined the user group may be prohibited.

Alternatively, even if the best execution result of the game part executed by the terminal device 12 of the new member within the aggregation period is determined, the execution result may not be reflected in the ranking information. Here, when the best execution result of the game part executed by the terminal device 12 of the new member within the aggregation period is determined and a predetermined condition is satisfied, the execution result is reflected in the ranking information. May be good.

For example, the condition may include a condition that there is one or more contributing users who are contributing users corresponding to the user group and who are not members of the user group. The condition is that the second point indicating the best execution result of the game part by the terminal device 12 of the new member is the first of at least one contributing user among one or more contributing users who are not members of the user group. It may further include the condition that it is 2 points or more. In such a case, in the ranking information, the association between the contributing user having the smallest second point among the one or more contributing users and the user group is canceled, while the new member corresponds to the user group as the contributing user. Can be attached. According to such a configuration, even if the maximum number of contributing users is a new member who has already joined the associated user group, it contributes to the ranking of the user group in place of the contributing user who has already left the user group. can do. Therefore, the possibility that inconveniences such as a new member not being able to contribute to the ranking of the user group is reduced, and the user's satisfaction with the game is improved.

(Provided table)
The server storage unit 15 shown in FIG. 1 stores the provision table for each user group. The provided table is information used for executing the game part "group shop" described later. The provided table will be described with reference to FIG. For example, FIG. 6 shows a provision table corresponding to the user group “Group 001”. In the provision table, one or more patterns are associated with the user group ID. Each pattern is associated with one or more sets of game media and a combination of times. The number of combinations of the game medium and the number of times associated with each pattern may be the same or may differ for each pattern. In the example shown in FIG. 6, each row of the provided table corresponds to each pattern, and each column corresponds to each combination of game medium and number of times. The game medium ID and the number of times are defined in each column of the provided table. The game media ID and the number of times shown in each column of the provided table may be common to each user group or may be different for each user group.

As will be described later, any one of the plurality of patterns included in the provision table is selected for each user group. The selected pattern is used to determine the acquisition table described later.

As will be described later, the management user belonging to the user group can change the provided table. For example, the ninth pattern (9th row) and the 9th set of game media and number of times (9th column) shown by the broken line in FIG. 6 can be added in response to a request from the management user.

The acquisition table includes one or more sets of game media and a combination of remaining times corresponding to one pattern selected from the provision table corresponding to the user group.

The "remaining number of times" is a parameter whose initial value is the "number of times" shown in the provision table. As will be described later, in the game part "group shop", when the user is made to acquire any of the game media shown in the acquisition table, the remaining number of times corresponding to the game media is reduced. The acquisition of the game medium can be executed only when the remaining number of times corresponding to the game medium is one or more.

The terminal storage unit 18 stores various information and programs used for processing the game. Various information and programs used in the processing of the game may be obtained from at least one of the server device 11 and other external servers, for example via the network 13. For example, the application program of the game may be obtained from another external server. Hereinafter, the application program is also simply referred to as an application.

The display unit 19 includes a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display. The display unit 19 can display various screens.

The input unit 20 includes an input interface that accepts user operations on the terminal device 12. The input interface may include, for example, a touch panel physical key provided integrally with the display unit 19, and a pointing device such as a mouse or a touch pad.

The terminal control unit 21 includes one or more processors. The processor may include a general-purpose processor that realizes a specific function by reading a specific program, and a dedicated processor specialized for a specific process. The terminal control unit 21 controls the operation of the entire terminal device 12. The terminal control unit 21 executes game processing in cooperation with the server device 11. Hereinafter, an example of the operation of the terminal control unit 21 will be specifically described.

The terminal control unit 21 transmits / receives information via the terminal communication unit 17. For example, the terminal control unit 21 receives various information and programs used for processing the game from at least one of the server device 11 and another external server. The terminal control unit 21 stores the received information and the program in the terminal storage unit 18.

The terminal control unit 21 starts the game application in response to the user's operation. The terminal control unit 21 executes game processing in cooperation with the server device 11. For example, the terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display various screens. For example, a GUI (Graphic User Interface) for detecting a user operation may be displayed on the screen. The terminal control unit 21 can detect a user operation on the screen via the input unit 20.

The terminal control unit 21 executes various processes of the game alone or in cooperation with the server device 11. For example, the terminal control unit 21 executes processing related to various game parts alone or in cooperation with the server device 11.

An example of processing a game executed by the server device 11 and the terminal device 12 independently or in collaboration with each other will be specifically described.

(Processing related to the game part)
The processing related to the game part executed by the server device 11 and the terminal device 12 in cooperation with each other will be described. The server control unit 16 of the server device 11 stores ranking information in the server storage unit 15.

The terminal control unit 21 of the terminal device 12 transmits a game part execution request to the server device 11, for example, in response to a user operation.

Upon receiving the game part execution request from the terminal device 12, the server control unit 16 duplicates at least a part of the ranking information corresponding to the user group to which the user of the terminal device 12 belongs. At least a part of the duplicated ranking information may include a part of the ranking information corresponding to the user group and a part corresponding to one or more other user groups higher than the user group. Good. The server control unit 16 temporarily stores the duplicated ranking information in the server storage unit 15 in association with the user. Hereinafter, the duplicated ranking information is also referred to as past ranking information. The past ranking information associated with the user is the ranking information at the time when the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 of the user. The past ranking information can be used to display predetermined information on the terminal device 12, as will be described later.

The past ranking information duplicated and stored in association with the user is managed independently of the ranking information of the duplication source. For example, the ranking information of the duplication source may change each time the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 of any user. On the other hand, for example, the past ranking information stored in association with the user A does not change even when the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 of a user other than the user A. As will be described later, the past ranking information stored in association with the user A may change when the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 of the user A.

When the past ranking information is stored in the server storage unit 15, the server control unit 16 transmits an execution instruction of the game part to the terminal device 12. The execution instruction may include arbitrary information used for executing the game part. For example, the information used to execute the game part may include, but is not limited to, the game data of the game part and the past ranking information described above. For example, the information used to execute the game part may include information about the user, information about the user group, information about the game part, ranking information, the provision table, and the acquisition table.

When the terminal control unit 21 receives the execution instruction of the game part from the server device 11, the terminal control unit 21 executes the game part. The terminal control unit 21 advances the game part, for example, in response to a user operation or automatically.

Here, in the game part of the present embodiment, as described above, the user operates the game medium (for example, a character) used in the deck, and the opponent (for example, an enemy character and an enemy) appearing in the virtual space. Includes elements of action games that play against buildings, etc.). For example, the terminal control unit 21 arranges the game medium to be used and the opponent in the virtual space. The terminal control unit 21 plays a battle between the game medium used and the opponent according to the user operation. When the soundness of the opponent decreases to a predetermined value (for example, zero), the terminal control unit 21 determines that the user has won the battle with the opponent. The terminal control unit 21 may make a new opponent appear in the virtual space.

In the terminal control unit 21, for example, when a predetermined time limit elapses after the game part starts, the soundness of at least one game medium used indicated in the information about the deck is larger than a predetermined value (for example, zero). In that case, it is determined that the game is cleared. When it is determined that the game is cleared, the terminal control unit 21 determines a second point (for example, a score) as the execution result of the game part, and ends the game part.

In the present embodiment, the better the execution result of the game part, the larger the second point (for example, the score). For example, the terminal control unit 21 may increase the second point as the number of opponents won by the user increases. Further, in the present embodiment, the terminal control unit 21 may change the difficulty level of the game part according to, for example, a user operation. The higher the difficulty of the game part, the stronger the opponent, for example, while the second point may be greatly increased when the opponent is defeated.

On the other hand, if the soundness of each game medium used shown in the information about the deck decreases to a predetermined value before the time limit elapses, the terminal control unit 21 determines that the game is over. When it is determined that the game is over, the terminal control unit 21 ends the game part without determining the second point indicating the execution result of the game part.

Alternatively, the terminal control unit 21 may determine a second point indicating the execution result of the game part even when it is determined that the game is over. Specifically, the terminal control unit 21 determines a second point indicating the execution result of the game part based on the progress of the game part in the period from the start of the game part to the determination that the game is over. For example, the terminal control unit 21 may increase the second point as the number of opponents won by the user during the period increases. Further, for example, the terminal control unit 21 calculates the second point as compared with the case where the game is not over, such as a process of deducting the second point or a process of multiplying the second point by a coefficient smaller than 1. You may perform the process of making it smaller.

When the execution result of the game part is determined, the terminal control unit 21 transmits the execution result of the game part to the server device 11.

Upon receiving the execution result of the game part from the terminal device 12, the server control unit 16 determines whether or not the execution result satisfies a predetermined condition (update condition). For example, the update condition may include a condition that the execution result is received within the aggregation period of the game part. Further, for example, the update condition may include a condition that the execution result is the best among the execution results of the game parts executed by the terminal device 12 within the aggregation period. Specifically, the server control unit 16 is a game part in which a second point (for example, a score) indicating an execution result received from the terminal device 12 within the aggregation period is executed by the terminal device 12 within the aggregation period. When it is the maximum among the execution results (for example, when it is the maximum score), it is determined that the update condition is satisfied.

If it is determined that the update condition is not satisfied, the server control unit 16 may discard the past ranking information stored in the server storage unit 15. Then, the processing related to the game part is completed.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the update condition is satisfied, the server control unit 16 sets the combination of the user and the initial value (for example, zero) of the user and the second point in the ranking information stored in the server storage unit 15. May be associated with the user group to which. Further, the server control unit 16 changes the second point of the user and the first point of the user group included in the ranking information, respectively.

Specifically, the server control unit 16 changes the second point of the user included in the ranking information so as to be equal to the second point indicating the execution result received from the terminal device 12. In order to change the second point, the server control unit 16 may execute an arbitrary process such as a process of overwriting the second point in the ranking information or a process of increasing or decreasing the second point. In the present embodiment, the second point included in the ranking information is increased.

More specifically, the server control unit 16 changes the first point of the user group included in the ranking information by the amount of change of the second point of the user. In the present embodiment, the first point of the user group is increased by the amount of increase of the second point of the user.

Here, when it is determined that the update condition is satisfied, and the server control unit 16 is not associated with another user group different from the user group to which the user (and the second point) currently belongs in the ranking information. , The second point of the user included in the ranking information and the first point of the user group to which the user belongs may be changed. In other words, the server control unit 16 determines that the update condition is satisfied, and when the user is not a contributing user corresponding to another user group, the second point of the user included in the ranking information and the said user. The first point of the user group to which the user belongs may be changed. According to such a configuration, the user can contribute to the ranking of the user group to which he / she currently belongs only if he / she has not contributed to the ranking of other user groups to which he / she belonged in the past. Therefore, the probability that one user will contribute to the ranking of a plurality of user groups will be reduced. When such a configuration is adopted, the server control unit 16 transmits a display instruction of alert information to the terminal device 12 of the user when the user tries to leave the user group, and the server control unit 16 sends an instruction to display the alert information, for example, in response to the user operation. The user may be removed from the user group in response to the reception of the response transmitted by the terminal device 12. The alert information may include, for example, information suggesting that it cannot contribute to the ranking of other user groups to which it belongs after withdrawal. Specifically, when the user group leaves the user group, the ranking information is not updated even if the game part is re-executed until the end time of the game part aggregation period, or the game part is re-executed. It may include a message suggesting that it is prohibited.

When the second point of the user and the first point of the user group included in the ranking information are changed, the server control unit 16 updates the ranking information stored in the server storage unit 15. Specifically, the server control unit 16 updates the ranking of each user group based on the first point of each user group included in the ranking information.

When the second point of the user and the first point of the user group included in the ranking information are changed, the server control unit 16 gives a display instruction of information indicating that the above-mentioned update condition is satisfied to the terminal device 12. Send. In the present embodiment, the information display instruction may include arbitrary information used for displaying the information, such as image data.

When the terminal control unit 21 receives the display instruction of the information indicating that the update condition is satisfied, the terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display the information. A specific example (third screen) of the screen on which the information is displayed will be described later.

When the second point of the user included in the ranking information and the first point of the user group are changed, the server control unit 16 includes the second point of the user included in the past ranking information described above and the user to which the user belongs. Change the first point of the user group and each. The amount of change of each of the second point and the first point included in the past ranking information may be equal to the amount of change of each of the second point and the first point included in the above-mentioned ranking information.

The server control unit 16 determines whether or not the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information changes based on the first point after the change included in the past ranking information.

When it is determined that the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information does not change, the server control unit 16 may discard the past ranking information stored in the server storage unit 15. Then, the processing related to the game part is completed.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information changes, the server control unit 16 transmits an information display instruction indicating that the ranking of the user group has changed to the terminal device 12. The server control unit 16 may discard the past ranking information stored in the server storage unit 15.

When the terminal control unit 21 receives an instruction to display information indicating that the order of the user group has changed, the terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display the information. A specific example (fourth screen) of the screen on which the information is displayed will be described later. Then, the processing related to the game part is completed.

(Processing related to reward)
The processing related to the reward, which is executed in cooperation with the server device 11 and the terminal device 12, will be described. When the aggregation period of the game part ends, the server control unit 16 of the server device 11 identifies one or more user groups from the plurality of user groups shown in the ranking information based on the ranking information. For example, the server control unit 16 may specify a predetermined number of user groups from the top based on the ranking shown in the ranking information.

The server control unit 16 identifies each user who has contributed to the ranking of each identified user group. Specifically, the server control unit 16 identifies each user associated with each specified user group in the ranking information.

The server control unit 16 gives a reward to each specified user. The reward may include a specific game medium, but may include any game medium. The specific game medium is a dedicated game medium that can be used in the game part "group shop" described later. However, the use of the specific game medium is not limited to this, and may be used in other game parts, for example. Specifically, the server control unit 16 associates a game medium with each identified user as a reward. For example, the content of the reward may differ depending on the ranking of the user group to which the specified user has contributed.

The server control unit 16 transmits an instruction to display information related to the reward to the terminal device 12 of each user who has given the reward. Specifically, the server control unit 16 transmits a display instruction of arbitrary information (for example, the name and number of game media) given as a reward to the terminal device 12.

When the terminal control unit 21 of the terminal device 12 receives the display instruction of the information related to the reward, the terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display the information related to the reward. Then, the processing related to the reward is completed.

(Processing related to group shops)
The processing related to the game part "group shop" executed by the server device 11 and the terminal device 12 in cooperation with each other will be described. As a general rule, a group shop is a game part in which a user can acquire another game medium by consuming the specific game medium acquired as a reward for the specific game part, for example.

The server control unit 16 of the server device 11 stores the provision table corresponding to the user group in the server storage unit 15 for each user group.

The server control unit 16 selects any one of the plurality of patterns included in the provision table for each user group. An arbitrary algorithm can be adopted for the process of selecting any one of the plurality of patterns. For example, the server control unit 16 may randomly select any one of the plurality of patterns. The probability that each pattern is selected may be the same or different for each pattern. Alternatively, the server control unit 16 may select one pattern from the plurality of patterns in a predetermined order.

For each user, the server control unit 16 stores the acquisition table corresponding to the user in the server storage unit 15 based on one selected pattern included in the provision table of the user group to which the user belongs. Specifically, the server control unit 16 sets a combination of one or more sets of game media and the number of times associated with one selected pattern included in the provision table, and a combination of one or more sets of game media and the remaining number of times. The acquisition table to be included is determined and stored in the server storage unit 15.

In the present embodiment, the process of selecting one pattern included in the provided table and the process of storing the user's acquisition table may be executed at predetermined time intervals (for example, every day).

The server control unit 16 transmits, for example, a display instruction of information regarding the acquisition table corresponding to the user to the terminal device 12 in response to a request from the terminal device 12 of the user.

When the terminal control unit 21 of the terminal device 12 receives the display instruction of the information regarding the acquisition table, the terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display the information. A specific example (sixth screen) of the screen on which the information is displayed will be described later.

The terminal control unit 21 transmits, for example, a game medium acquisition request shown in the acquisition table to the server device 11 in response to a user operation.

When the server control unit 16 receives the acquisition request for the game medium from the terminal device 12, the number of the specific game media associated with the user of the terminal device 12 is equal to or greater than the specified value corresponding to the game medium related to the acquisition request. Determine if it exists.

When the number of the specific game media is less than the specified value, the server control unit 16 may transmit, for example, a display instruction of information indicating that the number of the specific game media is insufficient to the terminal device 12.

On the other hand, when the number of specific game media is equal to or greater than the specified value, the server control unit 16 reduces the number of specific game media associated with the user by the specified value. Further, the server control unit 16 decrements the remaining number of times of the game medium related to the acquisition request in the acquisition table corresponding to the user. Further, the server control unit 16 associates the game medium related to the acquisition request with the user. Then, the processing related to the group shop is completed.

(Extended processing of provided table)
The extension processing of the provided table, which is executed in cooperation with the server device 11 and the terminal device 12, will be described. The terminal control unit 21 of the terminal device 12 may transmit the first extension request of the provided table to the server device 11 in response to a user operation, for example. The first extension request is a request for increasing the number of combinations of game media and the number of times corresponding to each of one or more patterns in the provision table corresponding to the user group to which the user of the terminal device 12 belongs. The transmission of the first extension request may be executed only by the terminal device 12 of the management user, for example.

Upon receiving the first expansion request, the server control unit 16 of the server device 11 increases the number of combinations of game media and the number of times corresponding to each of the one or more patterns in the provision table. In such a case, for example, in the providing table shown in FIG. 6, the column of "9th column" may be added. The server control unit 16 may increase the number of combinations of game media and the number of times corresponding to each pattern by consuming a predetermined game medium (for example, an item or virtual currency) associated with the management user. Good. The game medium related to the combination increased in response to the first expansion request may have higher value, rarity, performance, etc. than the game medium related to the other combination.

The terminal control unit 21 may transmit the second extension request of the provided table to the server device 11 in response to a user operation, for example. The second extension request is a request for increasing the number of patterns included in the provision table corresponding to the user group to which the user of the terminal device 12 belongs. The transmission of the second extension request may be executed only by the terminal device 12 of the management user, for example.

Upon receiving the second extension request, the server control unit 16 increases the number of patterns included in the provision table. In such a case, for example, in the providing table shown in FIG. 6, the row of the pattern "9" may be added. The server control unit 16 may increase the number of patterns by consuming a predetermined game medium (for example, an item or virtual currency) associated with the management user. The game medium corresponding to the increased pattern in response to the second expansion request may have higher value, rarity, performance, etc. than the game medium corresponding to the other pattern.

An example of a screen displayed on the display unit 19 of the terminal device 12 will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 13.

One or more contributing user information display areas 23 are provided corresponding to one or more contributing users corresponding to the user group (that is, one or more users associated with the user group in the ranking information). In the contributing user information display area 23, arbitrary information about the corresponding contributing user is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the user name, the difficulty of clearing, and the second point (“high score” in the figure) indicating the best execution result of the game part are displayed. The clear difficulty indicates the difficulty when the corresponding contributing user clears the game part.

The contributing user information display area 23 may function as a GUI that accepts user operations.

For example, when the terminal control unit 21 receives a user operation on the contributing user information display area 23, the terminal control unit 21 transmits a request for acquiring information about the deck or replay data when the corresponding contributing user clears the game part to the server device 11. May be good. The server control unit 16 transmits the information about the deck or the replay data to the terminal device 12 in response to the reception of the acquisition request. The terminal control unit 21 causes the display unit 19 to display the received information or data.

Further, for example, when the terminal control unit 21 receives a user operation on the contributing user information display area 23, the terminal control unit 21 automatically automatically sets the deck of the user of the terminal device 12 based on the information about the deck when the corresponding contributing user clears the game part. May be decided. Specifically, the terminal control unit 21 provides a game medium having the same game medium name as the game medium for each game medium included in the deck of the contributing user corresponding to the contributing user information display area 23. Determine if it is owned by the user. The terminal control unit 21 automatically determines a new deck including at least each game medium determined to be owned. When there is one or more game media determined not to be owned, the terminal control unit 21 stops the process of automatically determining the deck, and suggests that the deck cannot be automatically determined. The information may be displayed on the display unit 19.

According to the above-described configuration in which the contributing user information display area 23 functions as a GUI that accepts user operations, the user of the terminal device 12 obtains information when the contributing user corresponding to the contributing user information display area 23 clears the game part. Since it can be referred to, the usability of the game is improved.

Arbitrary information about the game part is displayed in the game part information display area 24. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the game part name, the victory condition, the defeat condition, and the stage image are displayed. The victory condition indicates a condition for determining that the game is cleared. The defeat condition indicates a condition for determining that the game is over. The stage image is, for example, a simplified image showing a virtual space in which a game medium used by the user and an opponent are arranged.

In the aggregation period display area 25, the remaining time until the end of the aggregation period is displayed.

The difficulty level of the game part is displayed in the difficulty level display area 26. The decrease button 27 is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) that accepts user operations that reduce the difficulty level. The terminal control unit 21 reduces the difficulty level according to the user's operation on the decrease button 27. The increase button 28 is a GUI that accepts user operations that increase the difficulty level. The terminal control unit 21 increases the difficulty level according to the user operation for the increase button 28.

In the deck information display area 29, information about each game medium used included in the selected deck is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the name of each game medium used (“character name” in the figure) and the level are displayed. When a plurality of decks exist, the terminal control unit 21 may switch the selected deck to another deck according to a user operation (for example, a swipe operation) for the deck information display area 29.

The start button 30 is a GUI that accepts a user operation for transmitting an execution request for a game part to the server device 11. The terminal control unit 21 transmits a game part execution request to the server device 11 in response to a user operation on the start button 30.

"High score up to the last time") and is displayed. The terminal control unit 21 may transition from the second screen to the first screen in response to a user operation on the second screen, for example.

(3rd screen)
FIG. 10 shows an example of the third screen. The third screen is displayed, for example, when the execution result of the game part satisfies the update condition after the game part is completed. Specifically, when the terminal control unit 21 receives an information display instruction indicating that the update condition is satisfied from the server device 11, the terminal control unit 21 displays the third screen based on the display instruction.

On the third screen shown in FIG. 10, information indicating that the update condition is satisfied (characters of "HIGH SCORE" in the figure) and a second point showing the execution result of the game part ("this time" in the figure) are displayed. "Score"), the second point showing the best execution result of the game part up to the previous time within the aggregation period ("High score up to the previous time" in the figure), "This score" and "High score up to the previous time" ("Increase in high score" in the figure) and the first point after the change of the user group included in the past ranking information ("Group score" in the figure) are displayed. ..

The terminal control unit 21 may transition from the third screen to another screen, for example, in response to a user operation on the third screen. For example, when the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information changes, the terminal control unit 21 transitions from the third screen to the fourth screen described later. On the other hand, if the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information does not change, the terminal control unit 21 may transition from the third screen to the first screen.

(4th screen)
FIG. 11 shows an example of the fourth screen. The fourth screen is displayed when, for example, after the third screen is displayed, the ranking of the user group to which the user of the terminal device 12 belongs, which is included in the past ranking information, changes. Specifically, when the terminal control unit 21 receives from the server device 11 a display instruction of information indicating that the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information has changed, the terminal control unit 21 receives a fourth screen based on the display instruction. Is displayed. The fourth screen shown in FIG. 11 includes a rank change display area 31, a plurality of group information display areas 32, and a plurality of detail buttons 33.

As described above, according to the invention according to the present embodiment, when the execution result of the game part executed by the terminal device 12 of the user satisfies the update condition, the user group to which the user belongs is included in the ranking information. The corresponding first point changes. The server device 11 updates the ranking information based on the first point after the change. According to such a configuration, the user of the terminal device 12 does not necessarily have to play the game part for multiplayer in order to contribute to the ranking of the user group to which the terminal device 12 belongs. Therefore, for example, even a user who prefers single play to multiplayer can easily contribute to the ranking of user groups. Therefore, the formation of a cooperative relationship between users belonging to the same user group is promoted.

Further, according to the invention according to the present embodiment, when the execution result of the game part by the terminal device 12 satisfies the update condition, the information indicating that the update condition is satisfied is displayed on the terminal device 12. Here, as described above, when the update condition is satisfied, the first point of the user group to which the user belongs changes. Therefore, according to such a configuration, the user of the terminal device 12 can visually recognize that he / she has contributed to the ranking of the user group to which he / she belongs by playing the game part.

Further, according to the invention according to the present embodiment, at least a part of the past ranking information at the time when the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 is stored. When the execution result of the game part by the terminal device 12 satisfies the update condition, the first point included in the past ranking information corresponding to the user group to which the user of the terminal device 12 belongs changes. When the ranking of the user group included in the past ranking information changes based on the first point after the change included in the past ranking information, the information indicating that the ranking of the user group has changed is the terminal device. It is displayed in 12. According to such a configuration, as described below, it becomes easy for the user who has played the game part to realize that he / she has contributed to the ranking of the user group. Therefore, the user satisfaction can be improved.

For example, it is assumed that the ranking of the user group A in the ranking information is, for example, 10th at the time when the game part is executed by the terminal device 12 of the user A belonging to the user group A. At this time, the ranking of the user group A in the past ranking information stored in association with the user A is also 10th. After that, during the execution of the game part by the terminal device 12 of the user A, the ranking of the user group A in the ranking information is, for example, 10th to 11th by the execution of the game part by the terminal device 12 of the user B belonging to the user group B. Suppose that it changed to. Even in such a case, the ranking of the user group A in the past ranking information stored in association with the user A remains at the 10th place.

Here, consider a case where the game part executed by the terminal device 12 of the user A ends and the execution result of the game part satisfies the update condition. In such a case, for example, by increasing the second point of the user A, the first point of the user group A also increases. Therefore, the user A contributes to the increase of the first point of the user group A by playing the game part.

However, in a configuration in which information indicating that the ranking of the user group A has changed (not the past ranking information) is displayed on the terminal device 12 of the user A, the ranking of the user group A is 10. It is displayed that it has dropped from the 11th place to the 11th place. Therefore, although the user A actually contributes to the increase of the first point of the user group A, it is difficult for the user A to realize the contribution.

On the other hand, according to the invention according to the present embodiment, information indicating that the ranking of the user group A has changed, which is shown in the past ranking information, is displayed on the terminal device 12 of the user A. For example, it may be displayed that the rank of the user group A has changed to a higher rank than the 10th rank. Therefore, the user A can easily realize that he / she has contributed to the increase of the first point of the user group A. Therefore, user satisfaction can be improved.

Further, in the invention according to the present embodiment, the update condition is that the second point indicating the execution result of the game part executed by the terminal device 12 is the execution of the game part executed by the terminal device 12 within the aggregation period. It may include the condition that it is the maximum or the minimum in the result. According to such a configuration, among the game part execution results played by the user, the best execution result within the aggregation period is reflected in the ranking among the user groups. Therefore, for example, even a user who is unfamiliar with the game can contribute to the ranking of the user group regardless of the execution result of the game part by another user, and the user's satisfaction with the game is improved.

It may be carried out in collaboration. Alternatively, the game system 10 does not have to include the server device 11. In such a case, the terminal device 12 may store in advance the information received from the server device 11 in the above-described embodiment.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, a configuration in which ranking information is stored for each combination of one set ID and one game part ID has been described. However, ranking information may be stored for each combination of, for example, one set ID and a plurality of game part IDs. In such a case, the second point of the user that can be included in the ranking information may be the total value of the second points indicating the execution result of each of the plurality of game parts executed by the terminal device 12 of the user. According to such a configuration, the user needs to aim for the best execution result in each of a plurality of game parts in order to contribute to the ranking of the user group to which the user belongs. Therefore, the fun of the game is improved.

In the above-described configuration in which ranking information is stored for each combination of one set ID and a plurality of game part IDs, for example, an upper limit of the number of game parts that can be played by each user may be provided. Specifically, ranking information is stored for each combination of one set ID and eight game part IDs, and each user may be able to play up to two game parts. According to such a configuration, each member of the user group needs to strategically consider which game part among the plurality of game parts to play. Therefore, the formation of cooperative relationships among members within the user group is further promoted.
