Description

The present invention relates to a game system for playing a battle or the like.

Patent Document 1 discloses a system for playing a game in a tournament system using geographic information. The outline is as follows. Based on the current position of the terminal device of the player, players in the same area (for example, Udagawa-cho, Shibuya-ku) are made to play against each other, and the player with the highest ranking in the area is determined. .. Subsequently, the first-ranked players in each area in an area larger than the area (for example, the entire Shibuya Ward) are made to play against each other. By repeating this, it is possible to determine the first player in the Kanto region, for example, by the tournament method.

Further, in order to determine the ranking, the ranking is raised by playing against the player of the above ranking and winning.

Patent Document 2 discloses a system configured so that a facility owned by a player in a virtual world in a game can be strengthened by using an in-game currency. For example, in-game currency can increase the attack level of a turret built by a player in a virtual world. This makes it possible to effectively intercept the invading enemy player.

Patent Document 3 discloses a game system that displays an advertisement in the background of a game.

However, in a conventional tournament such as Patent Document 1, the first player in each region is determined by the so-called champion method. For this reason, in order to fairly determine the first-placed player, an extremely large number of battles must be played, and there is a problem that it takes a long time to play a tournament. For this reason, a system that can conduct tournaments quickly or fairly is desired.

In addition, there is also a problem that the battle cannot be performed smoothly because the opponent player to be played is not in a state where the smartphone or the like can be operated. Therefore, a system that can smoothly play a match regardless of the situation of the opponent player is desired.

In the prior art as in Patent Document 2, by using the in-game currency for the virtual facility owned by the player, the virtual facility can be strengthened so as to bring benefits to the player. However, such a method that brings benefits only to the player who paid the in-game currency was not sufficient from the viewpoint of attracting many players to the virtual world. Therefore, a system that raises the motivation to participate in the virtual world and actively participates in more players is desired.

In the prior art as in Patent Document 3, advertisements are displayed in the game. However, those who advertised only paid the advertising fee and were not actively involved in the game. In addition, the advertisement and the progress of the game were separated, and the advertising effect on the player was not sufficient. These points were the same not only in the advertisement but also in the case of telling something to the player. For this reason, a method for effectively performing announcements, advertisements, public relations, etc. in the game is desired. Further, there is a demand for a method for increasing the motivation of a player to play a game in relation to announcements, advertisements, public relations, and the like.

1.3 Game play processing This game is a game in which a player (user) holding a smartphone T moves to move in a virtual space in the game.

(1) Virtual space movement processing FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of the terminal program 46 and the server program 64. The CPU 30 of the smartphone T (hereinafter, may be abbreviated as the smartphone T) accesses the server device S via the Internet. Subsequently, the player inputs the player name (user ID) and password into the smartphone T. The smartphone T transmits the login data including the input player name and password, the current position information acquired from the GPS receiver 35, and the direction information acquired from the geomagnetic sensor 43 to the server device S (step S1). The user attributes (address, gender, etc.) are registered in advance in the server device S.

If the combination of the received player name and password is registered, the CPU 50 of the server device S (hereinafter, may be abbreviated as the server device S) transmits the start screen corresponding to the current position information to the smartphone T. (Step S12). The smartphone T receives this and displays it on the touch display 34 (step S2).

FIG. 6A shows an example of the start screen. Roads, buildings, etc. are displayed on the screen. The server device S can access a map server device (not shown) such as google map (trademark), and based on the current position information and direction information received from the smartphone T, the map data of the direction from the current position. To get. Further, the server device S generates the map data of the virtual world based on the acquired map data (the map data of the virtual world may be generated and recorded in advance).

In the start screen shown in FIG. 6A, the person 80 is an avatar of a player holding a smartphone T, indicating that the player is at this position. As described above, the road 82 is displayed at a position corresponding to the actual position of the road, and is displayed in a deformed manner. The building 84, which is a virtual building, is displayed at a position corresponding to the position of the actual building, and the size, shape, height, and the like are deformed and displayed. In addition, the virtual soccer stadium 86 is also displayed as a special building in association with a building that becomes a landmark (museum, convenience store, post office, etc.).

When the player holding the smartphone T moves in the real world, the current position acquired by the GPS receiver 35 and the direction by the geomagnetic sensor 43 are transmitted to the server device S (step S3). The server device S updates the screen and transmits the screen based on the received current position and direction (step S13). The smartphone T receives the updated screen and displays it on the touch display 34 (step S4).

The map data of the virtual world transmitted by the server device S to the smartphone T is a deformation of the actual map data, and the positions of the roads and buildings are common. Therefore, the player can move around in the virtual world by moving around in the real world with the smartphone T.

When the player performs an operation such as tapping a button on the screen displayed on the touch display 34, the smartphone T transmits this operation data to the server device S (step S6). The server device S advances the game based on the received operation data (step S14), and transmits the progressed screen (step S15). The smartphone T receives and displays this (step S7).

For example, the operations performed by the player include the following. When the player approaches the virtual stadium 86, the server device S displays the virtual stadium 86 in a large size as shown in FIG. 6B. When the player touches the virtual stadium 86 on the screen of FIG. 6B displayed on the touch display 34 of the smartphone T, the smartphone T transmits the operation data and the user ID to the server device S (step S6). The server device S receives the operation data that the virtual stadium 86 has been touched, and performs a check-in process to the virtual stadium 86 (step S14).

(2) Check-in process FIG. 7 shows a detailed flowchart of the check-in process. Upon receiving the check-in operation data to the virtual stadium 86, the server device S increases the experience value of the player by a predetermined number (for example, 5) (step S17). Here, the experience value is a numerical value accumulated according to the degree of playing the game, and is an index showing how much the game is played. Further, the experience level is calculated based on the experience value, and it is shown that the larger the level value is, the more the experience is.

FIG. 8 shows the player information recorded on the hard disk 56. User ID, password, experience value, experience level, etc. are recorded. For example, when the player with the user ID "1837645" receives the operation data indicating that he / she has checked in to the virtual stadium 86, the server device S changes the experience value of the user ID "1837645" from "12734" to "12739". do.

Next, the server device S updates the number of visits to the virtual stadium 86 that has been checked in (step S18). FIG. 10 shows a stadium information table recorded on the hard disk 56. The stadium ID, name, appearance image, number of visitors, stadium level, etc. are recorded.

The server device S updates the number of visitors by +1 when the player checks in. In this embodiment, the number of visitors on each day is recorded separately from the total number of visitors. The level is a level such as the function of the virtual stadium determined according to the total number of visitors. The larger this value is, the more the virtual stadium has a full function. The external appearance image is an image to be displayed on the screens of FIGS. 6A and 6B.

Subsequently, the server device S transmits the check-in screen of the virtual stadium 86 to the smartphone T (step S15). FIG. 8A shows an example of a check-in screen. Upon check-in, a display 90 indicating that the experience value has been given "5" is shown. Further, a display 92 indicating that the current experience value is "12739" and a display 94 indicating that the experience value required for the next level is "2261" are shown. Similarly, the level of the virtual stadium 86, the number of visitors, and the like may be displayed.

Subsequently, the server device S transmits a screen displaying the players (players by the computer) that the player can play against in the virtual stadium (step S19a). The server device S records data of many athletes. FIG. 11 shows an example of recorded player data. The server device S randomly selects a player from this player list. However, as shown in FIG. 11, the appearance rate of each player is recorded for each stadium. Therefore, the players are selected so as to have such an appearance rate.

Experience levels are attached to athletes, and the higher the ability of athletes, the greater the experience level is recorded. In this embodiment, depending on the experience level, S rank (for example, experience level 30 or more), A rank (for example, experience level 29 or less and 15 or more), B rank (for example, experience level 14 or less and 10 or more), and so on. Has been granted.

As described above, the appearance probability of each player in each virtual stadium is determined by the table of FIG. In particular, the probability of appearance of a player with a high rank is lower than the probability of appearance of a player with a low rank.

When a player plays against a player on the computer side and wins, that player can be acquired. For this reason, since there are many players who desire to play against a player with a high rank, the probability of appearance of a player with a high rank is lowered in order to give motivation to the player who plays the game with a sense of rarity.

Furthermore, the probability of appearance of players in each virtual stadium is basically as shown in FIG. 11, but as the level of the virtual stadium (see FIG. 10) rises, higher-ranked players (A rank or higher, etc.) The appearance probability of is also increasing. As a result, when visiting a high-level virtual stadium, there is a high possibility that a player with a high rank can play against the player, and the motivation of the player who wants to visit the virtual stadium is high.

FIG. 9B shows an example of a screen displayed on the smartphone T (step S9a). Faces P1 to P5 of a plurality of players (here, 5 players) are displayed on the screen. One of the plurality of athletes, P3, is selected in the center, and the whole body is displayed in a large size in the central portion as the selected athlete SP. These images were recorded in the player data of FIG.

The player can change the player in the selected state by tapping the arrows 96 and 98 on the screen. That is, the fact that the tap has been made is transmitted to the server device S (step S9b), and the server device S receives this to generate a screen whose selection state has been changed and transmits it to the smartphone T (step S19b).

For example, the player P3 is selected on the screen of FIG. 9B, but by tapping the arrow 96, the selected player can be changed such as player P2, P1, P5, and so on. Similarly, by tapping the arrow 98, the selected player can be changed, such as player P4, P5, P1 ...

Further, the server device S automatically changes the selected player in sequence if the player does not receive the tap operation for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) on the screen of FIG. 9B.

When the player taps the play button 100 on the screen shown in FIG. 8B, the server device S starts the battle process with the selected player P3. The details of the battle process will be described later.

If the player wins the player on the computer side in the match, the player can acquire the player.

FIG. 12 shows the level change process of the virtual stadium. In this embodiment, this process is performed at predetermined intervals (for example, every week). Of course, it may be executed in real time.

The server device S acquires the number of visitors (total) of the virtual stadium from the table of FIG. 10 (step S52). It is determined whether or not the number of visitors exceeds the threshold value for raising to the next level (step S53). The threshold for raising to each level is predetermined and recorded.

When the threshold value is exceeded, the server device S raises the level of the stadium and updates the table of FIG. 10 (step S57). At this time, the appearance image of the stadium in the table of FIG. 10 is replaced with the one corresponding to the improved level. This appearance image is prepared in advance.

FIG. 13 shows an example of an external image of a virtual stadium for each level. The levels are higher in the order of FIG. 13A, FIG. 13B, and FIG. 13C. The higher the level, the better the image of the equipment is displayed.

On the other hand, if the threshold value is not exceeded, the server device S acquires the number of visitors in the past two weeks (the week and the previous week) (step S54). If the total number of visitors for the week is less than the predetermined percentage of the total number of visitors for the previous week (step S55), the level of the stadium is lowered (step S56). This is because the level down does not occur when the level is judged only by the cumulative number of visitors. In step S55, if it is not lower, the level is maintained as it is.

When the level is changed, the server device S also changes the appearance image accordingly (steps S56 and S57).

In this embodiment, as the stadium level up, the function of the stadium training center improves. Here, the training center is a facility for learning the special move used in the battle game. The higher the level of the virtual stadium, the greater the number of special moves that can be learned by training.

Its Special Moves and training will be described later.

1.4 Others
(1) In the above embodiment, even if the same player visits the virtual stadium, the number of visitors is counted. However, only unique players may be counted. Further, only unique players may be counted in one day, and the same player may be counted again when the day is different.

(2) In the above embodiment, the screen as shown in FIG. 6B is displayed when the player approaches the virtual stadium 86. As mentioned above, as the level of the virtual stadium rises, the probability of appearance of players of rank A or higher increases. Therefore, as shown in the display 81 of FIG. 14A, the magnification of the appearance probability may be displayed on the costume stadium 86. In FIG. 14A, it is displayed as "X 1235.6", and it can be seen that it appears with a probability of 1235.6 times.

Further, when a particularly prominent player appears in the virtual stadium 86 (when it appears for another player who has checked in), even if any player checks in to the virtual stadium for a predetermined time, You may be able to play against the prominent player. In this case, the photograph 83 of the prominent player may be displayed in the vicinity of the virtual stadium 86.

(3) In the above embodiment, the level of the stadium is raised based on the number of players who have visited the virtual stadium. However, the judgment may be made based on the total time of the player's stay in the stadium.

(4) In the above embodiment, the appearance, the appearance probability of high-ranked athletes, the function of the training center, etc. are increased according to the level. However, other functions and attributes may be given.

(5) In the above embodiment, a soccer game has been described as an example. However, it can also be applied as games such as rugby, basketball, baseball, and ice hockey.

(6) In the above embodiment, the attributes of the virtual building in the battle game are changed according to the number of visitors. However, it can also be applied to games that roam the virtual world, which are not competitive games. For example, it may be a virtual library, a virtual concert hall, a virtual store, etc., whose facilities are enriched according to the number of visitors.

(7) In the above embodiment, experience points are given by check-in to a virtual stadium. However, you may not give this.

(8) In the above embodiment, a smartphone is used as the terminal device. However, a PC, tablet, PDA, game machine, arcade game machine, or the like may be used as the terminal device.

(9) In the above embodiment, the position and direction of the player are determined by using the GPS receiver and the geomagnetic sensor. In addition to this, or instead of this, a gyro sensor or an acceleration sensor may be used for discrimination.

(10) In the above embodiment, only one server device S is provided. However, the function may be distributed and used in a plurality of server devices.

(11) The above modification can be applied to other embodiments as long as it does not contradict its essence.

2. 2. Second embodiment
2.1 Functional configuration Figure 15 shows the functional configuration of the competitive game system according to the second embodiment. This system includes a server device S, a terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn. The terminal devices T1, T2 ... Tn are smartphones and the like owned by a player who is a user. Each terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn can communicate with the server device S via the Internet.

This game is a game in which a player having terminal devices T1, T2 ... Tn moves and enjoys on a map of a virtual world corresponding to a real map. Hereinafter, the terminal device T1 will be described, but the same processing will be performed for the other terminal devices T2 ... Tn.

The terminal device T1 possessed by the player is provided with a terminal position acquisition unit 2 such as a GPS receiver. The terminal position acquisition means 4 acquires the current position from the terminal position acquisition unit 2 and transmits it to the server device S. In response to this, the movement processing means 10 of the server device S moves the player's avatar on the map of the virtual world 12 obtained by transforming the actual map. The image is transmitted to the terminal device T1. The terminal device T1 receives this and displays it on the display unit 8 by the display means 6. Therefore, the player can move the avatar in the virtual world 12 correspondingly by moving with the terminal device T1.

In the virtual world 12, a virtual stadium is provided in association with the actual stadium. Players can visit this virtual stadium. The virtual stadium can be, for example, a soccer stadium, a baseball stadium, a rugby stadium, a sumo stadium, a swimming venue, a professional wrestling stadium, or the like.

The parameters VPP1 to VPPm of the virtual player are recorded in the recording unit 18 of the server device S. This virtual player corresponds to a real player, and parameters are set according to the characteristics of the real player. Since the virtual player plays a match based on this parameter, it can be said that the virtual player simulates a real player.

When the player who operates the terminal device T1 visits the virtual stadium in the virtual world, the server device S randomly selects from the recorded virtual players and makes them appear in the virtual world as an opponent. The terminal device T1 displays this on the display unit 8.

When the player plays against this virtual player, the terminal device T1 is operated for the match. The play operation transmission means 24 of the terminal device T1 transmits this play operation to the server device S. In response to this, the battle processing means 22 of the server device S performs battle processing based on the player's play operation and the parameters of the virtual player. The terminal-side processing means 26 receives the battle processing data from the battle processing means 22 and performs display processing and the like.

Here, the appearance probability of the virtual player is determined for each of a plurality of virtual stadiums, and is recorded in advance in the server device S. In this embodiment, the appearance probability of the virtual player in the virtual stadium corresponding to the real stadium where the real player corresponding to the virtual player is the home stadium is calculated from the appearance probability of the virtual player in another virtual stadium. I try to make it higher.

Therefore, it is possible to realize a highly realistic virtual world game.

2.2 System Configuration The system configuration of the competitive game system and the hardware configurations of the terminal device T and the server device S are the same as those in the first embodiment.

2.3 Virtual player appearance processing The virtual space movement processing and the check-in processing are the same as those in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the virtual player appearance process and the subsequent battle process will be described.

FIG. 16 shows a flowchart of the virtual player appearance process. When the player checks in to the virtual stadium 86, the server device S performs the player appearance process.

The server device S acquires the appearance probability of each player of the virtual stadium 86 (step S91). Subsequently, the appearance probability of a player of rank A or higher is multiplied by a predetermined magnification according to the level of the virtual stadium 86 (step S92). Subsequently, when the player taps the use button (not shown) for the magnification item on the screen of FIG. 9B, the magnification of the magnification item is multiplied by the player of rank A or higher. Magnification items can be purchased at virtual shops using in-game currency.

Subsequently, the server device S selects a predetermined number of players (virtual players) based on the appearance probability calculated above (step S95). The server device S transmits the player selected in this way to the terminal device T (step S96). The terminal device T receives and displays the player (step S68). The screens at this time are FIGS. 9A and 9B.

In this embodiment, the basic appearance probability in FIG. 11 is the appearance probability of the virtual player in the virtual stadium corresponding to the real stadium where the real player corresponding to the virtual player is the home stadium. It is designed to be higher than the appearance probability of the virtual player in the stadium. For example, the virtual player "Messi" is set so that the appearance probability in the virtual stadium "Camp Nou" is higher than the appearance probability in other virtual stadiums.

2.4 Battle process with a virtual player When the player taps the play button 100 on the screen of FIG. 9B, the battle between the player and the virtual player is started. The flowchart of the battle process is shown in FIGS. 17 and 18.

The server device S transmits the battle start screen to the smartphone T (step S31). The smartphone T receives this and displays it on the touch display 34 (step S21). FIG. 19 shows an example of the battle start screen. In the display field 110, information on the opponent's player such as the current experience value is displayed. Information about the player's player is displayed in the display field 112.

When the player operates the smartphone T and taps the NEXT button 102, the information is transmitted to the server device S. In response to this, the server device S starts the timer (step S34). This timer is set to time up in a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds).

The server device S randomly determines the color of the ball to be arranged, and transmits a battle screen including a video of the opponent player and the player player (step S35). The smartphone T displays this (step S23). FIG. 19B shows an example of a battle screen. On the screen, the opponent player 116 and the player player 118 are displayed as moving images. Ball display areas 114A, 114B, 114C, and 114D are provided at the bottom of the screen. Here, balls of colors randomly determined by the server device S from red, blue, and yellow are displayed. In the figure, a blue ball is displayed in the area 114A, a yellow ball is displayed in the area 114B, a yellow ball is displayed in the area 114C, and a red ball is displayed in the area 114D.

In this state, the player can operate the touch display 34 with his / her finger to drag and drop any ball onto another ball of the same color to superimpose the ball. In the screen of FIG. 19B, the yellow ball of the region 114B can be superposed on the yellow ball of the region 114C (the ball of the region 114C may be superposed on the ball of the region 114B). The smartphone T transmits this superposition operation to the server device S (step S24). In response to this, the server device S assigns a "2" to the yellow ball in the region 114C to generate an image indicating that two balls are overlapped. Further, a new ball image of a randomly determined color is generated in the moved region 114B (step S35).

The image processed in this way is transmitted to the smartphone T (step S35) and displayed on the smartphone T (step S23). An example of the screen is shown in FIG. 20A. The number of overlaps "2" is displayed on the upper right of the yellow ball in the area 114C. Further, a new ball (red ball) is displayed in the area 114B.

In the screen of FIG. 20A, the player can superimpose the red ball of the area 114B on the area 114D. As a result, a new ball appears in the area 114B. In this way, balls of the same color can be stacked.

In a match, the greater the number of overlapping balls of either color, the higher the possibility of winning the opponent's player. Therefore, the player can take the time before the timer started in step S34 is up. Try to stack as many numbers as possible. However, if the player does not proceed to the next stage (long press operation described later) by the time the timer is up, the player player will unconditionally lose (steps S37 and S44). Therefore, the server device S displays the remaining time 120 in real time at the upper part of the screen so that the current remaining time can be known.

After stacking the balls, the player presses and holds one of the stacked balls (usually, the ball with the largest number of superpositions is selected). FIG. 20B shows a case where the ball in the region 114C is long-pressed in the state of FIG. 20A.

If there is a long press operation (final stage operation), it is transmitted to the server device S (step S26). The server device S generates and transmits a timing screen (step S39). FIG. 20B shows this timing screen.

On the timing screen, a change circle 122 is displayed in the center of the screen. The change circle 122 changes its size with time between the maximum size shown in FIG. 21A and the minimum size shown in FIG. 21B. In this embodiment, the change of decreasing from the maximum to the minimum and increasing from the minimum to the maximum with time is repeated every predetermined time (for example, 1 second). In this embodiment, the change in size is at a constant velocity. However, the change in size becomes faster in the vicinity of the minimum. The player can obtain a high score by tapping in the state of the minimum change circle 122.

When the player taps the screen while the change circle 122 is repeatedly changing, the smartphone T determines that there was a tap operation and the size of the change circle 122 displayed when the change circle 122 was tapped. (Step S29). The server device S receives this and determines the timing (step S41).

In the timing determination, if the tap is made in the state of the minimum change circle 122, the highest score Tmax is given as the score T, and if the tap is made in the state of the maximum change circle 122, the lowest score Tmin is given as the score T. .. If the tap is made in the meantime, the score T between Tmax and Tmin is given according to the size. The timing determination may be performed by the smartphone T, and the result may be transmitted to the server device S.

Next, the server device S determines the victory or defeat between the player's player and the opponent's player (computer-based player) (step S42). In this embodiment, the server device S calculates the score U of the player player and the score C of the opponent player as follows, and determines the victory or defeat.

U = LU * TU * NU * IU
Here, LU is a score value based on the player's experience level, TU is a score value based on timing, NU is a score value based on the number of overlapping balls that have been long-pressed, and IU is a score value based on the color of the ball selected by both players. It is a fixed score value.

LU is given, for example, "1 to 1000 points" depending on the experience level. The higher the experience level, the higher the score. TU is a score value based on the above timing, and is given, for example, "1 to 500 points". The NU is given, for example, "1 to 2" according to the number of stacked balls. The larger the number of superpositions, the larger the value is given.

The color of the ball selected by the player of the player is the color of the ball pressed and held in step S26. On the other hand, the color of the ball selected by the opponent player is randomly determined by the server device S. As shown in FIG. 21, the score based on the color of the ball is determined by the combination of the color of the ball selected by the player player and the color selected by the opponent player. If the player player chooses blue and the opponent player chooses red, IU = 1.2, and the player player's score will increase by 20%. Similarly, if the player player selects yellow (red) and the opponent player selects blue (yellow), the player player's score increases by 20%. In other cases, IU = 1, and there is no change in the score of the player player.

As described above, the score U of the player player is calculated.

The score C of the opponent player (computer player) is calculated by the following formula C = LC * TC * NC * IC
Here, LC is a score value based on the experience level of the opponent player (see FIG. 11). It is a value predetermined and recorded by the server device S. For example, "1 to 1000 points" are given according to the experience level. The higher the experience level, the higher the score.

TC is a score value corresponding to the score value according to the timing of the player player. However, since the opponent player is a computer (server device S) and cannot input a timing operation, the server device S randomly determines the score value of TC. It is preferable that the maximum value of TC is the same as the maximum value of TU of the player player, and the minimum value is the same as the minimum value of TU of the player player.

It should be noted that the appearance probability for each TC value may be calculated for each player recorded in the computer and randomly determined based on the appearance probability. This can give the computer player a personality.

For NC, for example, "1 to 2" is given according to the number of stacked balls. The larger the number of superpositions, the larger the value is given. However, since the opponent player is a computer (server device S) and cannot input the operation of superimposing the balls, the server device S randomly determines the score value of NC.

IC is a score value determined by the color of the ball selected by both players. The calculation method is the same as that for IU. The color of the ball is randomly selected by the server device S. Alternatively, a predetermined probability may be recorded in advance for each color, and a predetermined probability may be randomly selected based on this probability.

Therefore, if both players select the same color, there is no change in the score for both players. If one chooses blue (yellow, red) and the other chooses red (blue, yellow), the score of the player on one side will increase by 20%.

As described above, the score C of the opponent player is calculated. In this embodiment, LU, NU, IU, LC, LC, IC and the like are parameter scores. TU is the operation score, and TC is the score based on the virtual operation.

The server device S calculates the score U of the player player and the score C of the opponent player as described above, and the one with the larger score is the winner and the one with the smaller score is the loser (step S42).

The server device S transmits the winning / losing decision information to the smartphone T (step S43). The smartphone T receives and displays this (step S39). The winning / losing decision information can be a text display showing the winner, a video in which the winning player scores a goal, or the like.

Further, if the virtual player is defeated, the virtual player can be acquired. The server device S records the acquired virtual player in association with the player.

The server device S gives a predetermined experience value to the player of the player, adds it to the recorded experience value, and records it (step S44). Winning gives you more experience than losing. In this embodiment, 100 points are given for winning and 20 points are given for losing. The server device S transmits the added experience value of the player player to the smartphone T (step S45). The smartphone T displays this (step S30). On that screen, as in FIG. 9A, the experience value after addition and the experience value required for leveling up are displayed. In this embodiment, the experience value is not given to the opponent player (computer player).

The battle is held as described above. In addition, the player can continuously select the next opponent player and play a match, or can leave the virtual stadium and move outside. This allows you to visit other virtual stadiums.

In the above, the basic battle processing has been explained. In this embodiment, in addition to the above, a special move is introduced. The special move will be explained below.

Players can learn offense and defense special moves. You can learn multiple special moves for both offense and defense. The learned special move is recorded in the user information of FIG. In FIG. 8, the player with the user ID “1837645” has mastered four special moves of 1,4,6,9 as an offense and four special moves of 5,7,9,10 as a defense. It has been recorded.

For example, the offense's "1" Special Move is a power shoot. The defense's "10" Special Move is Intercept. Each technique has a rank, and the higher the rank, the higher the effect in battle.

FIG. 22 shows a setting screen for the special move. This screen is displayed from the tap of the NEXT button on the screen of FIG. 19A to the start of the battle. On the screen of FIG. 22, the player can set three special moves in association with each of the colors of red, blue, and yellow. The setting contents are transmitted to the server device S, and the server device S temporarily records this.

For example, suppose you set the offense "1" for red, the offense "9" for blue, and the defense "7" for yellow. At the start of the battle, the server device S transmits the battle start screen to the smartphone T (step S31). Immediately before this, the server device S randomly determines whether the player becomes an offense or a defense. Then, a display to that effect is displayed on the battle start screen. For example, if the player's avatar and the virtual player's avatar send a video of competing for the ball, and the player is determined to be an offense, the video of the player's avatar stealing the ball is taken. If the player is determined to be a defensive player, the video is taken from the virtual player's avatar who has stolen the ball.

This video is displayed on the smartphone T, and the player can visually know whether he / she is an offense or a defense. Further, even during the battle, the server device S displays marks 121 (offense) and 123 (defense) indicating whether it is offense or defense under the avatar, as shown in FIG. 20A. As a result, the player can easily know whether the player is offensive or defensive even during a match.

If the player is decided to be an offense, the special move set as a defense cannot be used. As mentioned above, if you have set the offense "1" for red, the offense "9" for blue, and the defense "7" for yellow, use the special move of defense "7" set for yellow. Can't. Similarly, if the player is determined to be defensive, the special move set as offense cannot be used.

To use the Special Move, you must stack 5 balls. Now, if the player is determined to be an offense, in the above example, if five red balls or five blue balls are stacked, the special move can be used. Pressing and holding the stacked balls in time to determine the timing is the same as the basic battle process.

However, when the special move is used, the user's score U is calculated according to the following formula.

U = LU * TU ** NU * IU + SU
Here, SU is a score by a special move. The score is set to differ depending on the level of the special move. The score for the special move is preferably a relatively large score.

For the virtual player, the server device S records in advance the probability that the player can use the special move (for each special move, how many battles the player uses once). Therefore, it is decided whether or not to use the special move according to the probability. For the virtual player, the special moves that have already been learned are recorded in advance.

C = LC * TC * NC * IC + SC
On the other hand, the player trains at the training center of the virtual stadium and learns the special move. You can enter the training center by tapping the training center button on the check-in screen of the virtual stadium.

The special moves that can be learned differ depending on the virtual stadium. If the level of the virtual stadium is high, you can learn many types of high-level special moves. If the level of the virtual stadium is low, you can only learn low-level special moves, or you can only learn a small number of special moves.

FIG. 22B shows a special move selection screen to be learned at the training center. At this training center, you can learn three special moves. When the player taps and selects from these, the server device S transmits the training screen.

FIG. 23A shows an example of a training screen. This is the same as in FIGS. 21A and 21B, in which a circle whose size changes is tapped so as to match the timing. Points for learning the special move are added according to the timing. When the accumulated points reach the threshold value for learning the special move, the player has mastered the special move. The server device S records the learned special move in the user information of FIG.

In the first embodiment, it was shown that the function of the virtual stadium changes according to the number of visitors. Improving the function of the training center in the virtual stadium (contents, number, etc. of special moves that can be learned) is an example of improving the function of this virtual stadium.

2.5 User Competitive processing with player parameters In the virtual world, other users also participate as players. As shown in the screen of FIG. 6B, when the player 80 approaches the virtual stadium 86, the server device S displays three (any number) players 85a, 85b, 85c around it. The player can register any virtual stadium as a base. These players 85a, 85b, 85c are other players registered based on this virtual stadium 86.

It should be noted that these players (users / players) are displayed even if they are not currently playing.

When the player taps any of the players 85a, 85b, 85c, a match application is transmitted to the server device S, and the player can play a match with that player. In addition, you may select three players (including yourself) that you have acquired and have them play against each other. In this case, the server device S randomly selects the three opponent players. The match will be played one-on-one with each player.

The flow chart of the battle is the same as that of FIGS. 10 and 11. The timing operation of the opponent player (second player) is randomly determined by the server device S. The experience level of the opponent player (second player) is determined based on the table of FIG.

The score S of the opponent player is calculated as follows.

S = LS * TS * NS * IS * SS
Here, LS is a score value based on the experience level of the second player (see FIG. 8). For example, "1 to 1000 points" are given according to the experience level. The higher the experience level, the higher the score.

TS is a score value corresponding to the score value due to the timing of the second player. However, since the second player has not actually performed the operation, the timing operation cannot be input. Therefore, the server device S randomly determines the score value of TS. It is preferable that the maximum value of TS is the same as the maximum value of TU of the player player, and the minimum value is the same as the minimum value of TU of the player player.

It should be noted that the history of the past TU (value at the time of actual operation) of the second player is recorded, the appearance probability for each TU value is calculated, and the TS is randomly determined based on the appearance probability. Anyway.

Further, the server device S executes the game, estimates the operation of the second player for this from the past history (estimation of the operation content according to the game situation), executes the game by simulation, and calculates the TS. You may try to do it.

For NS, for example, "1 to 2" is given according to the number of stacked balls. The larger the number of superpositions, the larger the value is given. However, since the second player has not actually performed the operation, the server device S randomly determines the score value of NS.

Similar to the above, this may also be calculated by simulation by performing calculation based on the appearance probability or operation estimation.

IS is a score value determined by the color of the ball selected by both players. The calculation method is the same as that for IU. The color of the ball selected by the second player is randomly selected by the server device S.

Similar to the above, this may also be calculated by simulation by performing calculation or operation estimation based on the appearance probability for each color.

SU is a score for a special move.

The server device S determines the victory or defeat based on the score U of the first player and the score S of the second player.

In this way, for the opponent player, the parameter based on the history of the player actually playing the game is used. Therefore, the opponent player does not need to perform an operation, and moreover, the opponent player can perform a battle reflecting the characteristics of the opponent player.

Since the second player does not need to actually perform the operation, the match can be executed even if the player of the second player is playing a match against another player, even if he / she is not playing the game. ..

In addition, players may be able to play against each other in a place other than the stadium. In this case, a player who is within a predetermined distance in the vicinity of the player's player is displayed, and the battle is started by tapping the player. Also, the battle may be started automatically without tapping.

2.6 Competitive processing with the user player In the above, the opponent player does not actually operate, and the battle is performed by the parameter. However, the other player may also actually perform the operation.

In this case, for example, the battle is performed as shown in FIG. 24A. In the above case, when the player of FIG. 24A performs the final stage operation and determines the timing, the opponent player is determined to win or lose by the parameter. However, as shown in FIG. 24A, if the other player performs the final stage operation by waiting until the timer time is up, the timing is determined and the score is determined.

In this way, the victory or defeat can be decided based on the score. If one performs the final stage operation before the tom-up and the other does not, the other loses. If both are time up, it is a draw.

Further, the battle may be performed as shown in FIG. 24B. If either one performs the final stage operation first, the opponent player's play is stopped at that point, and the victory or defeat is decided based on the number of overlapping balls (the largest number) at that time. However, since the final stage operation is not performed, there is no timing score, which is disadvantageous in terms of score.

2.7 Other
(1) In the above embodiment, the number of balls displayed in FIG. 20B is four, but it may be three or less and five or more. Further, although the color of the ball is also three kinds, it may be two or less kinds and four or more kinds.

(2) In the above embodiment, a battle game in a position game in which the player's avatar moves in the virtual space as the player actually moves is described as an example. However, it can be applied in the same way as long as it is a game in which the characteristics of the player are determined by the accumulation of the operations while performing the operations at the time of the battle.

For example, a battle game in which you control a weapon to defeat an opponent, a game in which timing is set according to the rhythm, a game in which you control things like Puyo Puyo (trademark) to compete, and a piece like shogi or go. It can also be applied to games that compete for victory or defeat.

(3) In the above embodiment, the victory or defeat is determined based on the score based on the timing and the score based on the experience value such as the battle experience. The score of the player is determined by the combination of the operation timing of the player (first player) who actually operates and the experience value of the player (first player), and when the opponent player (second player) is the opponent player, the score is determined. The server device S randomly determines the score according to the timing, and determines the score in combination with the experience value recorded for the opponent player (second player).

However, regarding the score due to the timing of the second player, the distribution of the timing score may be calculated based on the past operation history of the second player, and the appearance probability of each timing score may be obtained and randomly determined. .. In this case, this appearance probability becomes a parameter based on the operation history.

In addition, the winner is determined (without using the score based on the experience value) based on the score based on the operation timing of the first player and the score of the operation timing of the second player randomly determined by the server device S. You may do it.

Further, based on the score based on the operation (not limited to the timing) of the first player and the score based on the result of the operation simulation performed by the server device S based on the operation history of the second player (experience value). It may or may not take into account the score of).

(4) In the above embodiment, experience points are obtained by battle. However, instead of or in addition to this, experience points may be added according to the play time.

(5) In the above embodiment, the experience value is not given to the second player. However, experience points may also be given to the second player. Further, the experience value may be given only to the opponent player among the second players. That is, the experience value may not be given to the athlete recorded in the server device S (the athlete recorded in the table of FIG. 11).

(6) In the above embodiment, an empirical value or an empirical level is used as a parameter.

3. 3. Third embodiment
3.1 Functional configuration Figure 25 shows the functional configuration of the game system according to the third embodiment. This system includes a server device S, a terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn. The terminal devices T1, T2 ... Tn are smartphones and the like owned by a player who is a user. Each terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn can communicate with the server device S via the Internet.

This game is a game in which a player having terminal devices T1, T2 ... Tn moves and enjoys on a map of a virtual world corresponding to a real map. Hereinafter, the terminal device T1 will be described, but the same processing will be performed for the other terminal devices T2 ... Tn.

The terminal device T1 possessed by the player is provided with a terminal position acquisition unit 2 such as a GPS receiver. The terminal position acquisition means 4 acquires the current position from the terminal position acquisition unit 2 and transmits it to the server device S. In response to this, the movement processing means 10 of the server device S moves the player's avatar on the map of the virtual world 12 obtained by transforming the actual map. The image is transmitted to the terminal device T1. The terminal device T1 receives this and displays it on the display unit 8 by the display means 6. Therefore, the player can move the avatar in the virtual world 12 correspondingly by moving with the terminal device T1.

A large number of specific points are provided in the virtual world 12. Specific points include virtual stadiums, virtual airports, virtual stations, and virtual museums. The player can visit a specific point such as this stadium.

The player can perform an involvement action with respect to these specific points by the involvement input means 28. For example, in order to give a privilege to a player who visits the specific point (stadium, etc.), a ticket for granting the privilege is purchased in the in-game currency. This will increase the number of players visiting the stadium.

Upon receiving the involvement action, the involvement point giving means 21 of the server device S records the contribution points to the player as the player who contributed to the stadium (specific point).

Therefore, for each specific point (for example, a stadium), which player made the most contributions is recorded. The naming right granting means 23 of the server device S grants the naming right to the specific point to the player who has made the greatest contribution to the specific point within a predetermined period.

The player who has been given the naming right inputs the name of the specific point into the terminal device T1. The name transmitting means 29 transmits this name to the server device S. In response to this, the name updating means 25 of the server device S updates the name of the specific point.

Therefore, when displaying a specific point (for example, a stadium) in the virtual world, the name is also displayed.

3.2 System Configuration The system configuration of the game system and the hardware configurations of the terminal device T and the server device S are the same as those in the first embodiment.

3.3 Participation behavior processing Below, we will explain assuming that the specific point is a virtual stadium. The player can enter the virtual shop by tapping the button (not shown) of the virtual shop in the virtual stadium for the virtual stadium 86. You can purchase various items in the virtual shop.

The screen is shown in FIG. 26A. When the check-in booster button is tapped, the server device S transmits a screen as shown in FIG. 26B. Here, the check-in booster adds points (in-game currency) to the player who has checked in to the virtual stadium.

In FIG. 26B, the 50P × 50 check-in booster adds 50 points to each of the 50 players. In-game currency is used to purchase this check-in booster. The in-game currency can be purchased with actual money.

When the player purchases this check-in booster, other users who check in to the virtual stadium can receive points thereafter. When the player taps the check-in booster to purchase (participation behavior) on the screen of FIG. 26B, the information is transmitted to the server device S. In response to this, the server device S records that the player has purchased the check-in booster in association with the virtual stadium. In addition, the contribution points are recorded for the player in association with the stadium.

When another player checks in to the virtual stadium, the server device S gives points to the player. Once the check-in booster is consumed, points will not be awarded to other players.

If multiple check-in boosters (by different players) are registered in the same virtual stadium, the one with the highest points will be given priority and used.

FIG. 27 shows a flowchart of naming rights processing. The server device S executes the naming rights process when a predetermined period has elapsed from the previous process (for example, every week). First, for the virtual stadium, the player with the highest contribution points is determined (step S46).

Notify the determined player that the naming right has been granted (step S47).

The player who sees the display of the smartphone T inputs and transmits the name to be given to the virtual stadium (step S69). For example, it can be a stadium name with the name of the company to which you belong.

Upon receiving this, the server device S updates and records the name of the virtual stadium (step S48). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6B, when the player approaches the virtual stadium, the registered name is displayed. In addition, this name may be displayed at the time of check-in or at the time of a match in the stadium.

3.4 Others
(1) In the above embodiment, the virtual stadium is set as a specific point, but any point may be used as long as it can be named. For example, roads, rivers, buildings, airports, etc. may be designated as specific points.

(2) The above modification can be applied to other embodiments as long as it does not contradict its essence.

4. Fourth Embodiment
4.1 Functional configuration Figure 28 shows the functional configuration of the competitive game system according to the embodiment of the present invention. This system includes a server device S, a terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn. The terminal devices T1, T2 ... Tn are smartphones and the like owned by a player who is a user. Each terminal device T1, T2 ... Tn can communicate with the server device S via the Internet.

This game system is a game in which competitions are played in a tournament format based on geographical information.

Hereinafter, the terminal device T1 will be described, but the same processing will be performed for the other terminal devices T2 ... Tn.

The participation application transmission means 3 of the terminal device T1 transmits a participation application to the server device S by the operation of the player who wants to participate in the tournament. The opponent determination means 10 of the server device S receives an application for participation and determines an opponent.

A player (other party player) is recorded in the recording unit 18 of the server device S. For example, user ID, base information, parameters based on game history, presence / absence of participation in tournaments, and the like are registered. The opponent determining means 10 randomly selects an opponent player who participates in the tournament and is based in the same area (first administrative area) as the player's base, and makes it an opponent.

In this embodiment, an administrative division such as "Hatsudai, Shibuya-ku" is used as the same area.

When the battle game is started, the play operation transmission means 24 of the terminal device T1 receives the operation content of the player and transmits it to the server device S. The play operation receiving means 21 of the server device S receives this and gives it to the battle processing means 22.

The battle processing means 22 performs battle processing based on the player's play operation and the parameters of the opponent player.

The battle processing means 22 advances the battle processing and transmits an image for operation to the terminal device T1. In response to this, the terminal-side processing means 26 displays an image for operation on the terminal device T1.

The battle processing means 22 determines the victory or defeat based on the player's play operation and the parameters of the opponent player recorded in the recording unit 12. The battle processing means 22 records the victory or defeat of the player. The player can play as many times as he / she wants within the set period. Therefore, the battle processing means 22 records the winning number and the negative number of the player.

After the set period has elapsed, the server device S is a player based in the first administrative area (Hatsudai, Shibuya-ku) based on the recorded number of wins and negative numbers, and is a player participating in the tournament. Select an excellent player from among.

The above processing is also performed in many other first administrative areas of Shibuya Ward (such as Hiroo, Shibuya Ward). Therefore, excellent players are selected for each of the first administrative areas.

Next, the server device S sets the entire Shibuya Ward (second administrative area) as the target area, and the excellent players included in the target area are made to play against each other. Similarly, the excellent player in Shibuya Ward is determined.

By repeating the above, the battle can be advanced in a tournament manner.

4.2 System Configuration The system configuration of the competitive game system and the hardware configuration of the terminal device T and the server device S are the same as those in the first embodiment.

4.3 Tournament processing Figure 29 shows a flowchart of tournament processing. The player operates the smartphone T to send an application for participation in the tournament to the server device S (step S141). The server device S records that the player has applied for participation (step S121). Many players will apply for participation in the server device S.

Next, the server device S sets an area of the size of the first administrative division as a target area (step S122). For example, areas such as "Hatsudai, Shibuya-ku," "Udagawa-cho, Shibuya-ku," and "Sarugaku-cho, Shibuya-ku" are targeted.

The player operates the smartphone T to send a match application (step S142). Upon receiving this, the server device S refers to the user information of the player and determines which virtual stadium is registered as the base. Then, the target area including the base is determined. If the base is registered in latitude and longitude instead of the address, it is converted to an address using a conversion table for judgment.

The server device S refers to the table of FIG. 8 and randomly determines an opponent from among the players in the determined target area and the players based in the target area (step S123).

The player of the smartphone T plays against the determined opponent player. In this embodiment, the battle is performed based on the player's play operation and the parameters of the opponent player (see 2.5) (steps S143 and S124).

The server device S records the victory or defeat of the player (step S125). In this embodiment, the server device S records the number of wins and losses because the battle can be performed any number of times within a predetermined period. Further, in this embodiment, the winning or losing is not recorded for the opponent player (player using the parameter).

If the server device S is within a predetermined period (step S126), the server device S accepts a battle application from the smartphone T and plays a battle.

After the predetermined period has elapsed, the server device S determines the winning player in each target area (step S127). In this embodiment, the player having the highest winning percentage among the players who have played a predetermined number of times or more is selected as the winning player. The server device S records the winning player in each target area.

The server device S targets an area wider than the current target area (for example, an area such as Shibuya Ward or Chiyoda Ward) (step S128). Then, returning to step S123, if there is a match application, the winning player in the same target area is randomly selected (step S123).

Only the winning player can apply for a match. Therefore, the winning players will play against each other.

When the predetermined time elapses, the server device S determines the winning player in each target area, further expands the target area (for example, Tokyo), and continues the battle. As described above, the game can be advanced in a tournament format.

This tournament game can be applied to all battle-type games.
