[0002] With the development of computer technology, many different types of virtual games have emerged, including room escape games.

[0003] However, in the prior art, the game difficulty level of escape room games is a fixed value defined by the merchant subjectively, which results in that the game difficulty level is not suitable for the gaming abilities of all game players. Novice game players may think that the escape room games are difficult, while game players with certain gaming experience may think that the escape room games are easy. This reduces the adaptability of the game difficulty level to the game players, thereby reducing the gaming experience of the game players.

[0004] In view of this, there is an urgent need in the art to develop a new method and device for determining the difficulty level of a game.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

Some of the block diagrams shown in the accompanying drawings are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically independent entities.

[0033] In view of the problems existing in the related art, the present disclosure proposes a method for determining the difficulty level of a game. Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for determining a game difficulty level is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method for determining the game difficulty level includes at least the following steps:

[0034] Step S110: Obtain a general gaming ability level corresponding to the target game player.

[0035] Step S120: Obtain the clearance time required for other game players with a common gaming ability level to clear the target game, and obtain the preset clearance time corresponding to the target game.

[0036] Step S130. Determine a calculation result based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time, and determine the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player based on the calculation result.

[0037] In the method and device provided by the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, on the one hand, the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined based on the calculation result, which avoids the problem in the prior art that the game difficulty level is a fixed value set subjectively, thereby improving the accuracy of the determined game difficulty level and the game experience of the target game player; on the other hand, the calculation result is determined based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time. Therefore, for different target game players, different clearance times can be determined, and then different game difficulty levels are determined, thereby improving the adaptability of the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player.

[0038] The following is a detailed description of each step of the method for determining the game difficulty.

[0039] In step S110, a general game ability level corresponding to the target game player is obtained.

[0040] In the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, the target game refers to any virtual game that can be used for entertainment by game players. Specifically, the target game can be a mobile game, a computer game, a shooting game, a role-playing game, or an escape room game. This exemplary embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0041] The target game player refers to one of the game players, and the general game ability level is predicted to measure the game ability of the target game player for the target game.

[0042] For example, the target game is a room escape game, specifically, the target game is a XX type room escape game, and it is predicted that the game ability level of the target game player "xxx001" for the XX type room escape game is A level.

[0043] In an alternative embodiment, Figure 2 FIG. 1 shows a flow chart of obtaining a general game ability level corresponding to a target game player in a method for determining a game difficulty level. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes at least the following steps: In step S210, a game type corresponding to a target game is obtained, and other games having the same game type are determined.

[0044] Among them, the game type refers to the type of game. Specifically, assuming that the target game is a shooting game, the game type can be a single-player shooting type, or a multiplayer shooting type. Assuming that the target game is a role-playing game, the game type can be an animation role-playing type, or a Marvel character-playing type. Assuming that the target game is an escape room game, the game type can be a suspense type, or a spy war type. This exemplary embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0045] Other games refer to games of the same game type as the target game. For example, if the target game is an escape room game, and the game type of the escape room game is a spy war type, then the escape room game of the same spy war type will be determined as other games.

[0046] For example, the target game is room escape game XX, and the game type of room escape game XX is spy war type. Then, room escape game XX1, room escape game XX2 and room escape game XX3, which also belong to the spy war type, can be determined as other games.

[0047] In step S220, the historical clearance time required for the historical game player to clear other games is obtained, and the first preset clearance time corresponding to the other games is obtained.

[0048] Among them, historical game players refer to game players who have completed other games. Correspondingly, the historical clearance time is the time it takes for historical game players to complete other games. The first preset clearance time is a pre-set time required for most game players to complete other games, which is subsequently used for calculation with the historical clearance time to obtain a first calculation result.

[0049] For example, other games include room escape game XX1, room escape game XX2 and room escape game XX3, among which 100 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX1, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 100 historical game players, 150 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX2, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 150 historical game players, 300 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX3, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 300 historical game players.

[0050] In step S230, the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time are calculated to obtain a first calculation result, and the general game ability level corresponding to the target game player is predicted based on the first calculation result.

[0051] Among them, the first calculation result refers to the result obtained after calculating the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time. Specifically, the first settlement result can be the ratio between the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time. Then, based on the first calculation result, the general game ability level of the target game player when clearing the target game can be predicted.

[0052] For example, other games include room escape game XX1, room escape game XX2 and room escape game XX3, among which 100 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX1, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 100 historical game players, 150 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX2, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 150 historical game players, 300 historical game players have passed the room escape game XX3, and correspondingly, there are historical clearance times corresponding to these 300 historical game players.

[0053] The above 100 historical clearance times are calculated with the first preset clearance time to obtain the first calculation result, the above 150 historical clearance times are calculated with the first preset clearance time to obtain the first calculation result, and the above 300 historical clearance times are calculated with the first preset clearance time to obtain the first calculation result. According to the above-mentioned first calculation results, it is predicted that the general game ability level of the target game player "xxx001" for this XX type of escape room game is A.

[0054] In this exemplary embodiment, the general gaming ability level of the target game player is predicted based on a first calculation result, which refers to a calculation result between a historical clearance time and a first preset clearance time. Furthermore, the general gaming ability level of the target game player is predicted based on the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time, thereby improving the accuracy of the predicted general gaming ability level of the target game player.

[0055] In an alternative embodiment, Figure 3 FIG. 1 shows a flow chart of predicting the general game ability level corresponding to the target game player in the method for determining the game difficulty level. Figure 3 As shown, the method at least includes the following steps: In step S310, a mapping relationship between the first calculation result and the general game ability level is created.

[0056] Among them, since the first calculation result can be the ratio between the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time, the closer the first calculation result is to 1, the closer the time required for the historical game player to clear other games is to the first preset clearance time, and thus it can be considered that the historical game player has a higher gaming ability level when playing other games. Correspondingly, the closer the first calculation result is to 0, the farther the time required for the historical game player to clear other games is from the first preset clearance time, and thus it can be considered that the gaming ability level of the historical game player when playing other games is weaker. The mapping relationship reflects the corresponding relationship between the first calculation result and the general gaming ability level described above.

[0057] For example, a mapping relationship can be created between the first calculation result belonging to the interval [0.7 0.8] and the general game ability level C, a mapping relationship can be created between the first calculation result belonging to the interval [08 0.9] and the general game ability level B, and a mapping relationship can be created between the first calculation result belonging to the interval [0.9 1] and the general game ability level A, wherein the general game ability level A is greater than the general game ability level B, and the general game ability level B is greater than the general game ability level C.

[0058] In step S320, a second clearance time of the target game player for clearing other games is obtained, and the second clearance time and the first preset clearance time are calculated to obtain a second calculation result.

[0059] Among them, the second clearance time refers to the time required for the target game player to clear other games, and the second calculation result is the calculation result between the second clearance time and the first preset clearance time. Specifically, the second calculation result is the ratio between the second clearance time and the first preset clearance time.

[0060] For example, the second clearance time required for the target game player to clear other game XX1 is a, and the first preset clearance time is b, then the second calculation result is the ratio of a to b.

[0061] In step S330, based on the mapping relationship and the corresponding relationship between the first calculation result and the second calculation result, a general game ability level corresponding to the target game player is predicted.

[0062] Among them, the first calculation result corresponding to the second calculation result can be determined, and then according to the mapping relationship and the corresponding relationship between the first calculation result and the second calculation result, the general game ability level corresponding to the target game player is predicted.

[0063] For example, the second calculation result is 0.95. Obviously, the second calculation result belongs to the interval [0.9 1], and there is a mapping relationship between the first calculation result belonging to the interval [0.9 1] and the general game ability level A. Therefore, the predicted general game ability level of the target game player is A.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, a mapping relationship between the first calculation result and the general gaming ability level is created, and then the general gaming ability level of the target game player can be predicted based on the corresponding relationship between the second calculation result and the first calculation result. Moreover, since the first calculation result is a result calculated based on the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time, the accuracy of the predicted general gaming ability level of the target game player is improved.

[0065] In an alternative embodiment, Figure 4 FIG. 1 shows a flow chart of predicting the general game ability level corresponding to the target game player in the method for determining the game difficulty level. Figure 4 As shown, the method at least includes the following steps: In step S410, a first calculation result matching the second calculation result is determined.

[0066] After the second calculation result is calculated, the first calculation result matching the second calculation result may be determined.

[0067] For example, if the second calculation result is 0.95, the first calculation result matching the second calculation result may be any first calculation result in the interval [0.9 1].

[0068] In step S420, the game ability level having a mapping relationship with the first calculation result is predicted as a general game ability level corresponding to the target game player.

[0069] After determining the first calculation result that matches the second calculation result, the game ability level corresponding to the first calculation result can be determined based on the mapping relationship, and then the game ability level can be predicted as a general game ability level corresponding to the target game player.

[0070] For example, the second calculation result is 0.95, then the first calculation result matching the second calculation result may be the first calculation result 0.95 belonging to the interval [0.9 1], and the game ability level mapped to the first calculation result 0.95 is A. Therefore, the predicted general game ability level corresponding to the target game player "xxx001" is A.

[0071] In this exemplary embodiment, a first calculation result that matches the second calculation result is determined, and then the gaming ability level corresponding to the first calculation result can be predicted as a general gaming ability level corresponding to the target game player based on the mapping relationship. Since the first calculation result is a result calculated based on the historical clearance time and the first preset clearance time, the accuracy of the predicted general gaming ability level of the target game player is improved.

[0072] In step S120, the clearance time required for other game players with a common gaming ability level to clear the target game is obtained, and the preset clearance time corresponding to the target game is obtained.

[0073] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, other game players refer to game players who have the same gaming ability level as the target game player, clearance time refers to the time required for other game players to clear the game, and preset clearance time refers to a preset time value, which is used to represent the clearance time required for most game players to clear the game.

[0074] For example, the predicted general game ability level corresponding to the target game player "xxx001" is A, and other game players with general game ability level A include game player "xxx010", game player "xxx111" and game player "xxx221", among which the time required for game player "xxx010" to clear the target game is e, the time required for game player "xxx111" to clear the target game is d, the time required for game player "xxx221" to clear the target game is f, and the preset clearance time is g.

[0075] In this exemplary embodiment, it is necessary to obtain the clearance time and preset clearance time required for other game players with the same gaming ability level to clear the target game, which in turn helps to determine the calculation result based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time, laying the foundation for determining the game difficulty level relative to the target game player based on the calculation result.

[0076] In step S130, a calculation result is determined according to the clearance time and the preset clearance time, and a game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined according to the calculation result.

[0077] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference calculation can be performed between the clearance time and the preset clearance time to obtain a calculation result. If the calculation result is greater than 0, and the clearance time is significantly different from the preset clearance time, it proves that the game difficulty level of the target game is high for the target game player. If the calculation result is less than 0, and the clearance time is significantly different from the preset clearance time, it proves that the game difficulty level of the target game is low for the target game player. If the calculation result is close to 0, it proves that the game difficulty level of the target game is medium for the target game player.

[0078] For example, the clearance time is 1 hour and the preset clearance time is 30 minutes. Obviously, the calculated result is greater than 0 and the clearance time is significantly different from the preset clearance time, which proves that the target game has a high difficulty level for the target game players.

[0079] In an optional embodiment, the calculation result is determined based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time, including: calculating the average value of the clearance time to obtain the average clearance time, and calculating the difference between the average clearance time and the preset clearance time to obtain the calculation result.

[0080] Among them, after obtaining the clearance time required for other game players with the same gaming ability level to clear the target game, the clearance time can be averaged to obtain the average clearance time, and then the difference between the average clearance time and the preset clearance time can be calculated to obtain the calculation result. It is worth noting that the reason for calculating the average clearance time is to avoid the influence of individual deviations in the clearance time on the calculation result and to improve the accuracy of the calculation result.

[0081] For example, the predicted general game ability level corresponding to the target game player "xxx001" is A, and other game players with general game ability level A include game player "xxx010", game player "xxx111" and game player "xxx221", among which the time required for game player "xxx010" to clear the target game is e, the time required for game player "xxx111" to clear the target game is d, the time required for game player "xxx221" to clear the target game is f, and the preset clearance time is g.

[0082] The average clearance time of 1 hour can be obtained by calculating the average value of the clearance time e, the clearance time d and the clearance time f. The preset clearance time is 30 minutes, and the difference between the average clearance time of 1 hour and the preset clearance time of 30 minutes is calculated to obtain the calculation result.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, the average clearance time is calculated by averaging the clearance time, thereby avoiding the influence of individual deviation clearance time on the calculation result and improving the accuracy of the calculation result.

[0084] In an alternative embodiment, Figure 5 FIG. 1 shows a flow chart of determining the game difficulty level of a target game relative to a target game player according to a calculation result in a method for determining the game difficulty level. Figure 5 As shown, the method includes at least the following steps: in step S510, if the calculation result meets the first preset condition, it is determined that the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is the first level.

[0085] The first preset condition may be a condition for determining the game difficulty level to be a first level, and the first level may be a level indicating that the target game is difficult for a target game player.

[0086] Specifically, the first preset condition may be that the difference between the customs clearance time and the preset customs clearance time is greater than 0, and the customs clearance time is significantly different from the preset customs clearance time.

[0087] For example, the clearance time is 1 hour, and the preset clearance time is 30 minutes. Obviously, the difference between the clearance time and the preset clearance time is greater than 0, and the difference between the clearance time and the preset clearance time is large. Based on this, the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined to be the first level, and the first level indicates that the target game is at a higher level of difficulty relative to the target game player.

[0088] In step S520, if the calculation result satisfies the second preset condition, it is determined that the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is the second level.

[0089] The second preset condition may be a condition that the game difficulty level is determined to be the second level, and the second level may be a level indicating that the target game is moderately difficult for the target game player. Specifically, the second preset condition may be a condition that the difference between the clearance time and the preset clearance time is close to zero.

[0090] For example, the clearance time is 32 minutes, and the preset clearance time is 30 minutes. Obviously, the calculation result at this time meets the second preset condition that the difference between the clearance time and the preset clearance time is close to 0. Therefore, the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined to be the second level, and the second level indicates that the target game is of moderate difficulty level relative to the target game player.

[0091] In step S530, if the calculation result satisfies the third preset condition, it is determined that the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is the third level.

[0092] The third preset condition may be a condition for determining the game difficulty level to be the third level, and the third level may be a level indicating that the target game is less difficult than the target game player. Specifically, the third preset condition may be a condition that the difference between the clearance time and the preset clearance time is less than 0, and the clearance time is significantly different from the preset clearance time.

[0093] For example, the clearance time is 15 minutes, and the preset clearance time is 30 minutes. Obviously, the calculation result meets the third preset condition at this time, and then determines that the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is the third level. The third level indicates that the target game is at a lower level of difficulty relative to the target game player.

[0094] In this exemplary embodiment, when the calculation results meet different preset conditions, the game difficulty level of the determined target game relative to the target game player is different, avoiding the situation in the prior art where the game difficulty level is determined as a fixed value. This not only increases the accuracy of the determined game difficulty level, but also increases the compatibility of the determined game difficulty level with the target game player.

[0095] In an optional embodiment, after determining the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player based on the calculation results, the method also includes: if the game difficulty level is the second level, adjusting the display mode corresponding to the target game to the target display mode; wherein the target display mode is different from other display modes, and other display modes correspond to other games.

[0096] Among them, when the game difficulty level is the second level, it proves that the target game is of moderate difficulty relative to the target game players. At this time, the display mode corresponding to the target game can be adjusted to the target display mode. The display mode refers to the way the target game is displayed on the terminal before entering the game. The target display mode is different from the display mode of other games.

[0097] For example, if the difficulty level of the target game is the second level, the display mode of the target game is adjusted to a highlighted display mode, and the display modes of other games of the same game type as the game remain unchanged in the default other display modes.

[0098] In this exemplary embodiment, when the game difficulty level is the second level, the display mode corresponding to the game is adjusted to the target display mode, which helps to remind the target game player that the target game is a game suitable for the target game player's gaming ability level, thereby increasing the probability of the target game player entering the target game and improving the target game player's gaming experience.

[0099] In the method and device provided by the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, on the one hand, the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined based on the calculation result, which avoids the problem in the prior art that the game difficulty level is a fixed value set subjectively, thereby improving the accuracy of the determined game difficulty level and the game experience of the target game player; on the other hand, the calculation result is determined based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time. Therefore, for different target game players, different clearance times can be determined, and then different game difficulty levels are determined, thereby improving the adaptability of the target game difficulty level of the game relative to the target game player.

[0100] The following is a detailed description of the method for determining the game difficulty level in the embodiment of the present disclosure in conjunction with an application scenario.

[0101] The merchant is about to launch an escape room game xxxa on the escape room game platform. At this time, the target game player "Zhang San" enters the escape room game platform and wants to choose an escape room game that suits him. At this time, it is predicted that the general game ability level corresponding to the target game player "Zhang San" is A.

[0102] Get the clearance time of other game players (game player "Xiao Li", game player "Xiao Le" and game player "Xiao Xu") with general game ability level A to clear the room escape game xxxa. Specifically, the clearance time of game player "Xiao Li" to clear the room escape game xxxa is j, the clearance time of game player "Xiao Le" to clear the room escape game xxxa is k, and the clearance time of game player "Xiao Xu" to clear the room escape game xxxa is l. The average of the clearance time j, the clearance time k and the clearance time l is calculated to obtain an average clearance time of 1 hour, and the preset clearance time obtained is 30 minutes.

[0103] Based on this, the calculation result obtained is that the average clearance time is much longer than the preset clearance time, and further, it is determined that the game difficulty level of the escape room game xxxa relative to the target game player "Zhang San" is the first level, where the first level indicates that the game difficulty level of the escape room game xxxa relative to the target game player "Zhang San" is higher.

[0104] Similarly, the game difficulty levels of all escape room games that need to be listed on the escape room game platform relative to the target game player "Zhang San" will be determined, and then the target game player can select an escape room game that suits him or her according to the determined game difficulty level.

[0105] In this application scenario, on the one hand, the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player is determined based on the calculation result, which avoids the problem in the prior art that the game difficulty level is a fixed value set subjectively, thereby improving the accuracy of the determined game difficulty level and the game experience of the target game player; on the other hand, the calculation result is determined based on the clearance time and the preset clearance time. Therefore, for different target game players, different clearance times can be determined, and then different game difficulty levels can be determined, thereby improving the adaptability of the game difficulty level of the target game relative to the target game player.
