[Modified example]
Although the present invention has been described based on the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The following cases are also included in the present invention.

[First modification]
In the above embodiment, the character table is common between the first table 2221 and the second table 2222, that is, the game contents constituting the tables are common, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the second table 2222 may have at least some different game contents than the first table 2221. On the other hand, the third table 2223 may be set to have a higher probability of winning in game media of a rarity equal to or higher than a predetermined value, while the game media forming the tables are common, compared to the second table 2222, for example.

According to the above configuration, it is possible to differentiate between the first number lottery and the second number lottery in the lineup of game media constituting the first and second tables. Further, according to the above configuration, the winning probability of the game media on the first to third tables is adjusted in stages according to their rarity (the second table has a higher winning probability than the first table, and the third table has a higher winning probability than the second table). higher).

[Second modification example]
For example, in the third table, compared to the second table, the probability of winning the game medium of the highest rarity among the game media constituting the table is set to be the same, and the winning probability of the game medium of any rarity other than the highest rarity is set to be the same. The probability may be set high.

According to the above configuration, the winning probability of the game media on the second and third tables can be divided into two, the highest rarity and any other rarity, and can be set in stages according to the rarity. Therefore, according to the above configuration, it is possible to provide a diverse lottery. Furthermore, according to the above configuration, regarding the winning probabilities of game media on the second and third tables, since the game media with the highest rarity is set to be the same, the difference between the tables, that is, the winning probability between the first lottery and the second lottery. Avoid making too much of a difference.

[Third modification example]
The game contents that are different between the second table and the first table may be, for example, game contents of a rarity equal to or higher than a predetermined value excluding the highest rarity. If this different game medium is a game medium of the highest rarity, there is a possibility that the second table and the first table will be too different. Therefore, according to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the difference between the second table and the first table, that is, the difference between the first lottery and the second lottery from being too large.

Here, examples of configurations of the first to third tables in the first to third modified examples will be explained using FIGS. 11 to 12. FIGS. 11(a) and 12(a) are tables showing examples of rarity tables forming the first to third tables. FIGS. 11(b) and 12(b) are tables showing examples of character tables forming the first to third tables.

As shown in FIG. 11, the first rarity table and the second rarity table may be common, for example. On the other hand, the second character table differs from the first character table in at least some of the game contents that constitute the table. Specifically, compared to the first character table, the second character table additionally includes a character "Tank E" whose rarity is 4 stars. This tank E is also a game medium with a rarity equal to or higher than a predetermined value (in this example, "4 stars") other than the highest rarity (5 stars).

For example, the third rarity table may be set to have a higher probability of winning in a game medium with a rarity of a predetermined value (4 stars) or more, compared to the second rarity table. Furthermore, the third table may be set to have the same winning probability for the game medium of the highest rarity (5 stars) among the game media constituting the table, for example, as compared to the second table.

As shown in FIG. 12, as an example different from FIG. 11, the second rarity table has a higher winning probability for game media with a rarity of a predetermined value (4 stars) or more than the first rarity table. You can. The rest is the same as in FIG. 11.
