[0039] As shown in FIG. 3, in the lottery game by the game system 1, the character cards to be selected are The cards are divided into several groups (group 301, Group 301 is classified into two groups: group 302, group 303, and so on. For example, group 301 is classified into the rarest This is a group of featured cards such as high (super rare) character cards, and is group 30 Group 1 contains 10 different types of eyeball cards. Group 302 contains, for example, A group of medium rarity cards, such as character cards, Group 302 contains 10 medium rarity cards of different types. 03 is a group of low rarity cards, such as character cards with the lowest rarity (normal). Group 303 is a set of 80 low rarity cards of different types. can be.

[0040] Note that each group is not classified by the rarity of the character cards, but by the Depending on the time or event when the card was issued, or the items the character wears, They may also be classified as follows.

[0041] Each group 301-303 is assigned a winning probability of 311-313. The initial value of the winning probability 311 of group 301 is 1%, and the winning probability of group 302 is 3 The initial value of 12 is 19%, and the initial value of the winning probability 313 of group 303 is 80%. The server 3 assigns the winning probabilities 311-313 to each group 301-303. Then, the group is selected randomly. That is, in the first selection step, there is a 1% probability Group 301 is selected, 19% of the time group 302 is selected, and 80% of the time Group 303 is selected. The lottery steps indicate the order of each lottery. The lottery step corresponds to a first lottery. Furthermore, the server 3 selects the number of users included in the selected group. From each character card, a character card is randomly selected with equal probability. The server 3 then grants the selected character card to the player.

[0042] A group may contain only one character card. If a group containing only one character is selected, one character in that group A treasure card is given to the player.

[0043] In this lottery game, the number of types of character cards provided does not decrease. The character cards that are given to players will be used in the second and subsequent lottery draws. The character cards will not be deleted from the lottery and will remain available for selection (or the character cards will be added to each group). (The character card will be removed from the pool and the same type of character card will be replenished.) In the selection game, from the second drawing onwards, the winners of each group are determined according to the number of draws performed up to that point. The probability of selection of the rounds 301 to 303 is changed. In the subsequent lottery, the probability 311 of the selection of the group 301 of the featured card is increased. The probability of the other groups 302 and 303 being selected is 312 and 31 In other words, in the second lottery step, there is a 1.01% chance that the winner will be in group 30. 1 is selected, group 302 is selected with a probability of 79.992%, and Group 303 will be selected with a 50% probability in the 99th drawing step. Group 301 was selected, group 302 was selected 9.596% of the time, and group 303 was selected 40.4% of the time. There is a 0.04% chance that group 303 will be selected.

[0044] In this lottery game, the probability of winning the featured card increases every time you draw. In order to achieve this, the player's expectations for obtaining the featured card must be sufficiently increased, and the player's expectations for the lottery must be sufficiently increased. It is possible to improve the player's motivation to continue playing. Furthermore, the server 3 can The increase in the probability of winning the featured card in the selection (the difference from the previous probability of winning) or Flexible change of winning probability, such as monotonically increasing the increase rate (ratio to the previous winning probability) This can further increase the player's anticipation for obtaining the featured card. Alternatively, the server 3 may set the winning probability of the featured card to 311 in the second or subsequent lottery draws. It is also possible to monotonically decrease the increase value or rate of increase, or to set an upper limit for the probability of winning 311. Therefore, it is possible to improve the game playability of the lottery game.

It is a number.

[0070] Related players are other players related to the player. Related players are, for example, Other players who belong to the same group as the player, or friends of the player Rescue the player in battles with other players in a relationship or past enemy characters Other players you have played against in the past and / or belong to a group you have played against in the past Other players, etc.

[0071] FIG. 6(b) shows a card table for managing character cards. For each character card, the card ID, name, and image data of that character card are The file name, character name, rarity, HP, attack power, defense power, attributes, etc. of the data are recorded in association with each other. It is remembered.

[0072] Figure 6(c) shows the group that manages the group of character cards that are classified by lottery. The group table shows the group identification number for each group. Number (group ID), name, card ID of the character card included in the group, The initial value of the selection probability, etc. are stored in association with each other. The character cards included in each group are The lottery game will feature the characters in each group. The probability is the initial value of the winning probability associated with the group and the winning probability associated with each player. The number of times the lottery is held is determined and given to each character card. In the table, the probability of winning for each group is associated with the number of times the lottery is executed. This is also fine.

[0073] 2.2.1. Configuration of the server processing unit 33 The server processing unit 33 includes a progress control unit 331, a display data output unit 332, and a main game execution unit. Each of these units is a server processing unit. 33 is a functional module realized by a program executed by a processor. Alternatively, each of these units may be implemented in the server 3 as firmware.

[0074] The progress control unit 331 controls the start and progress of the game, and The game execution unit 333, the selection unit 334, and the association unit 335 are instructed to execute the processes as appropriate. The progress control unit 331 communicates necessary data with the mobile terminal 2 via the server communication unit 31. To communicate.

[0075] When a request for each screen described with reference to FIGS. 4(a) to 4(c) is received from the mobile terminal 2, The control unit 331 controls buttons for receiving instructions from the player, and text to notify the player. The creation of display data for displaying text information, images, etc. in a layout appropriate for the screen The data is then sent to the mobile terminal 2. When any button is pressed, a request for the next screen corresponding to that button is received from the mobile terminal 2. When the command is received, the progress control unit 331 similarly instructs each unit to create display data for the next screen, and then The data is transmitted to the mobile terminal 2.

[0076] In particular, an operation to start a game using the mobile terminal 2 by the player, or to go to the home screen When a transition operation is performed and a corresponding home screen request is received from the mobile terminal 2, The progress control unit 331 outputs a display data for displaying the home screen 400 to the display data output unit 332. Then, the progress control unit 331 instructs the display data output unit 332 to create the display data. The generated display data is transmitted to the mobile terminal 2.

[0077] In addition, when a main game button 401 is pressed on a home screen 400 displayed on the mobile terminal 2, When a corresponding main game request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 The main game execution unit 333 instructs the main game execution unit 334 to execute the main game. 31 displays a screen for executing the main game, which is created by the main game execution unit 333. The display data for the purpose of displaying the image is transmitted to the mobile terminal 2.

[0078] In addition, the lottery game button 402 is pressed on the home screen 400 displayed on the mobile terminal 2. When a corresponding lottery screen request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 The selection unit 334 is instructed to generate display data for displaying the lottery game screen 410. Then, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the selection unit 334 to the mobile terminal 2.

[0079] In addition, the lottery button 413 is pressed on the lottery game screen 410 displayed on the mobile terminal 2, When a corresponding lottery request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 Then, the progress control unit 331 instructs the selection unit 334 to execute the lottery. Display data for displaying the lottery result screen 420 is transmitted to the mobile terminal 2.

[0080] In addition, the details button 414 is pressed on the lottery game screen 410 displayed on the mobile terminal 2, When a corresponding detailed screen request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 The display unit 334 is instructed to create display data for displaying the details screen 430. The control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the selection unit 334 to the mobile terminal 2.

[0081] The display data output unit 332 receives an instruction from the progress control unit 331 to create display data for the home screen. If so, display data for displaying the home screen 400 is created, and the created display data is The data is passed to the progress control unit 331.

[0082] The main game execution unit 333 receives an instruction from the progress control unit 331 to execute the main game. In this case, display data for displaying the screen for running the main game is created, and the created display The data is passed to the progress control unit 331. After that, the main game displayed on the mobile terminal 2 is executed. The main game is executed according to the operation by the player on the screen displayed on the screen. The execution unit 333 executes a game associated with a usage ID stored in the player table during the main game. Battles and the like are carried out using cards and the like. The main game execution unit 333 also In response, the game points and player level in the player table are updated and the playing The player is given game points and his / her player level is increased.

[0083] When the progress control unit 331 instructs the selection unit 334 to create the lottery game screen 410, The player ID included in the lottery screen request is identified, and the identified player ID is retrieved from the player table. The selection unit 334 reads out the number of times the lottery is to be executed, which is associated with the group ID. The selection unit 334 reads out the initial value of the winning probability of each group from the table. Based on the period and the number of draws, the probability of winning for each group in the next draw is calculated. The selection unit 334 selects a lottery game that indicates the read number of lottery executions and the calculated winning probability. The display data for displaying the game screen 410 is generated, and the generated display data is input to the progress control unit 416. Give it to 331.

[0084] The selection unit 334 selects a player according to the player's request in accordance with the number of times the player has performed the lottery. The selection unit 334 changes the probability of winning the featured card in the next lottery. The higher the number of cards, the higher the chance of winning the group of featured cards. Change the odds of winning to make the odds lower.

[0085] For example, the group 301 of featured cards and the group 302 of medium rarity cards shown in FIG. The winning probability for each lottery execution count for the low rarity card group 303 is calculated as follows: It is calculated using the formula: Group 301's winning probability P1 = A1 × 100 / (100 - number of lottery draws) Group 302's winning probability P2 = (1-P1) x (A2 / (1-A1)) Group 303's winning probability P3 = (1-P1) x (A3 / (1-A1)) Here, A1 is the initial value of the winning probability of group 301, and A2 is the winning probability of group 302. A1 is the initial value of the winning probability for group 303, and A2 is the initial value of the winning probability for group 304.

[0086] In the following, the winning probability P1 of group 301 is 1%, and the winning probability P2 of group 302 is 19%, and the winning probability P3 of group 303 is 80%. If the number of lottery runs is 0 (lottery step is 1), the winning probability of group 301 is 1%. , the winning probability of group 302 is 19%, and the winning probability of group 303 is 80%. On the other hand, if the number of lottery runs is 1 (lottery steps is 2), the winning probability of group 301 is 1 The winning probability of group 302 is 18.998%, and the winning probability of group 303 is 18.998%. The winning probability is 79.992%. Also, the number of lottery runs is 98 (lottery steps is 99). In this case, the winning probability of group 301 is 50%, and the winning probability of group 302 is 9.59. 6%, so the probability of winning for group 303 is 40.404%. The increase in the probability of winning the card and the rate of increase will increase monotonically with the number of times the lottery is held. The more players draw, the greater the chance of winning the prize card. It is possible to increase the player's motivation to continue playing the lottery game.

[0087] In addition, the selection unit 334 changes the winning probability of each group in a manner different from the above calculation formula. For example, the selection unit 334 may select the increase value or the increase rate of the winning probability of the featured card based on the lottery results. The probability of winning may be changed so that it decreases monotonically with the number of rows. The probability of winning the lottery is relatively high in the early stages, and the lottery game is played only a few times. This makes it easier for even light users who do not have a lot of experience to obtain the featured cards. It is possible to increase the number of participants in the lottery game by having the local users participate in the lottery game. do.

[0088] Alternatively, the selection unit 334 may select a card that is a winning probability that is linear with respect to the number of times the lottery is executed. In this case, the selection unit 334 may change the probability of winning, for example, when the highlight card is won. The probability of selection is 1% for the first drawing step, 2% for the second drawing step, and 3% for the 99th drawing step. In the lottery step, the probability is set to 99%. This simplifies the transition of the probability of winning the featured card. This allows the player to easily grasp the current probability of winning.

[0089] The selection unit 334 selects the character and attribute of the character card selected by lottery. , rarity or group, character card selected in the lottery and play The relationship between the character cards owned by Ya, the character cards selected in the lottery, and the eyeballs The relationship of cards, points awarded to players in the main game, and the play in the main game Based on the level of the layer or the number of messages a player has sent to other players, The degree of change in the selection probability may be changed. By moving the step forward by two or more steps (increasing the number of steps), the probability of winning increases significantly. By reducing the number of lottery steps, the probability of winning can be reduced. In addition, the selection unit 334 does not change the lottery step after the lottery is drawn, thereby increasing the probability of winning. You can not change it.

[0090] For example, the selection unit 334 selects the character, genus, and / or affiliation of the character card selected in the lottery. The character's gender, rarity, or group to which it belongs is determined in advance. If the winning probability is the same as the group, the winning probability will be set to be higher than if the winning probability is not the same. In addition, the selection unit 334 selects a character card selected by lottery. If the character card is the same as the one you already own, the next winning probability is The selection unit 334 selects the winning probability of the selected lottery winner from the lottery winner. If the character or attribute of the character card and the eyeball card are the same, the next winning probability is , the probability of winning next time is set to be higher than if the cards are not the same. Even if you don't, it may greatly increase your chances of winning next time, so This makes it possible to increase the player's sense of expectation regarding the acquisition.

[0091] Also, for example, the selection unit 334 selects the game points or the player points stored in the player table. The higher the layer level, the greater the increase in the probability of winning at each step. The lower the points or player level, the smaller the increase in the probability of winning. This allows each player to improve the rate of increase in their chances of winning. In order to increase the number of players, the main game will be run more frequently, which will help to keep the main game active. It becomes possible.

[0092] Also, for example, the selection unit 334 may select the number of messages that the player has sent to related players, or The more messages a player sends to other players inviting them to play the main game, the more likely they are to win. The degree of increase in the probability of winning is changed so that the degree of increase in the probability of winning is greater. Each player can send more messages to increase their chances of winning. This makes it possible to stimulate communication between players.

[0093] The selection unit 334 also displays the points given to the player in the main game, Based on the player's level in the game or the number of messages the player has sent to other players. Based on the above, the initial value immediately after the winning probability is reset may be changed. By resetting the winning probability to a step other than 1, , the initial value of the winning probability can be dynamically changed.

[0094] For example, the selection unit 334 selects the game points or player points stored in the player table. The higher the level, the higher the initial probability of winning, and the higher the game points or player level The lower the value, the smaller the initial value of the winning probability will be. Therefore, each player will play the main game more frequently to improve the initial probability of winning. This makes it possible to revitalize the main game.

[0095] Also, for example, the selection unit 334 may select the number of messages that the player has sent to related players, or The more messages a player sends to other players inviting them to play the main game, Change the initial value of the winning probability so that it becomes larger. This allows each prize Since the player sends more messages to improve the initial probability of winning, It will be possible to stimulate communication between layers.

[0096] In addition, in the above formula, if the number of lottery draws is 99, the winning probability of group 301 is 1. 00%, and the highlight card will definitely be the winning card. For example, the selection unit 334 may set the upper limit of the winning probability to 50%. Set the number of lottery executions to 99 or more (lottery steps after the 100th) for each group. The probability of winning is the same as the probability of winning when the number of lottery draws is 98 (the 99th lottery step). By setting an upper limit on the probability of winning, the probability of winning becomes too high and the prize becomes a big hit. It is possible to prevent the player's expectations for obtaining a card from decreasing.

[0097] The selection unit 334 selects the character and attribute of the character card selected by lottery. , rarity or group, character card selected in the lottery and play The relationship between the character cards owned by Ya, the character cards selected in the lottery, and the eyeballs The relationship of cards, points awarded to players in the main game, and the play in the main game Based on the level of the layer or the number of messages a player has sent to other players, The selection unit 334 may set an upper limit of the selection probability. By doing so, the upper limit of the winning probability can be changed.

[0098] For example, the selection unit 334 selects the character, genus, and / or affiliation of the character card selected in the lottery. The character's gender, rarity, or group to which it belongs is determined in advance. If the group is the same as the current group, the upper limit of the winning probability will be set to a value higher than the current upper limit. The selection unit 334 determines whether the character card selected in the lottery is already owned by the player. If the character card is the same as the one you have in the previous game, the upper limit of the winning probability will be increased from the current upper limit of the winning probability. The selection unit 334 also sets the character card selected in the lottery to a high value. If the character or attribute of the featured card is the same as the current upper limit of the winning probability, This will ensure that you will win even if you don't win the featured card. The upper limit of the rate may be higher, so the player's expectations for obtaining the featured card may increase. It is possible to improve it.

[0099] Also, for example, the selection unit 334 selects the game points or the player points stored in the player table. The higher the layer level, the higher the upper limit of the winning probability is set, and the The lower the team points or player level, the lower the upper limit of the winning probability. This allows each player to increase their chances of winning by Since the in-game is executed more frequently, it is possible to make the main game more active.

[0100] Also, for example, the selection unit 334 may select the number of messages that the player has sent to related players, or The more messages a player sends to other players inviting them to play the main game, the more likely they are to win. The upper limit of the winning probability is set so that the upper limit of the winning probability is high. ,In order to improve the upper limit of the winning probability, more messages are sent, so the player This will enable the promotion of communication between the two parties.

[0101] In addition, when the progress control unit 331 instructs the selection unit 334 to execute a lottery, the selection unit 334 displays a lottery screen Identify the player ID included in the request, and search the player table for the specified player ID. The selection unit 334 reads out the associated number of times to execute the lottery from the group table. The selection unit 334 reads out the initial value of the winning probability of each group. Based on the number of times the selection was performed, the winning probability of each group was calculated using the above method. For example, the selection unit 334 randomly selects a group according to the selection probability of the server 3. The group is randomly generated using pseudo-random numbers generated using the current clock counter value as a seed. Furthermore, the selection unit 334 selects each character card included in the selected group. For example, the selection unit 334 randomly selects a character card from among the All characters are generated using pseudo-random numbers generated using the current clock counter value as a seed. Character cards are selected randomly so that each card has the same probability of being selected.

[0102] In this way, the selection unit 334 selects a plurality of characters to be selected in response to a request from a player. The selection unit 334 selects a character card from among the character cards. If a group other than the group of the player is selected, the lottery execution time will be In this case, the probability of winning the next drawing of the featured card is The winning probability will be higher than the winning probability in the next lottery for character cards other than the featured card. The probability of winning in the previous lottery is lower than the probability of winning in the current lottery. If a group of featured cards is selected in the selection, a lottery is performed at the player table. In this case, the winning probability of each character card in the next lottery is reset. is set and returns to the initial value.

[0103] In addition, even if the group of the eyeball card is selected in the lottery, the selection unit 334 The number of selections will not be reset, but the winning probability for the next selection for each character card will be reset. This allows players to select a specific group of featured cards. Even after you get the featured card, you can get other featured cards with a high probability. This can increase the player's motivation to continue playing the game.

[0104] In addition, when the number of times of lottery execution reaches a predetermined number (for example, 50 times), the selection unit 334 The number of rows will be automatically reset, and the winning probability of each character card in the next lottery will be reset. In this way, each player can obtain a special card within a predetermined number of lottery runs. This improves the gameplay of the lottery game, and the highlight card is a big hit to the player. The amount of the additive that is added is suppressed.

[0105] In addition, the selection unit 334 resets the number of times the lottery is to be executed in response to a request from the player, The probability of winning the next character card lottery may be reset.

[0106] In addition, when a special card is selected from among the featured cards, the selection unit 334 selects each character. If the winning probability of the card is not reset and a card other than a special card is selected, You may reset the probability of winning the character card. In that case, the special card will be given to each player. Since there is a possibility that they will be given in large quantities, cards that are acceptable for large amounts to be distributed are designated as special cards. This is preferable. If a special card is selected, the winning of the featured card will be Since the probability of winning remains high, it is possible to further improve the gameplay of the lottery game. Alternatively, the special cards may be set by each player. Therefore, until the character card set by each player is selected, the winning of the featured card will be The odds remain high, so each player is sure to get the card they want.

[0107] Next, the selection unit 334 causes the association unit 335 to Next, the selection unit 334 instructs the awarding of the lottery number updated in the player table. The selection unit 334 calculates the probability of each group winning in the next lottery based on the above. The lottery result showing the selected player's card, the updated number of lottery runs, and the calculated probability of winning the next time The display data for displaying the result screen 420 is generated, and the generated display data is input to the progress control unit 3. Give it to 31.

[0108] The selection unit 334 also receives a display device for displaying the details screen 430 from the progress control unit 331. When the user is instructed to create the data, the winning probability of each group for each lottery run is calculated. Display data for displaying a details screen 430 showing the winning probability for each lottery execution count is created. The created display data is passed to the progress control unit 331.

[0109] The associating unit 335 receives an instruction from the selecting unit 334 to provide the character card to the player. If so, the character card selected by the selection unit 334 is recorded in association with the player. The associating unit 335 assigns the player the bonus by storing the bonus in the player table. By adding the card ID of the character card to the player's owned card information, The character card is given to the player. At that time, the association unit 335 The character card selected in step 4 is not removed from the group table and is used in the next draw. It will remain eligible for the lottery.

[0110] In this way, the association unit 335 determines whether or not a group other than the group of the featured card is included in the lottery. Whether a card is selected or a group of cards is selected, the selected character The card is awarded to the player while remaining eligible for the next drawing. In the selection, the selection unit 334 selects a character card of the same type as the given character card. A character card will be drawn from multiple character cards set as the lottery target, including the In other words, the type of character card to be drawn in each lottery will be reselected. The number of classes or varieties will remain unchanged.

[0111] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of an operation sequence related to the lottery game process of the game system 1. This operation sequence is stored in advance in the terminal storage unit 22 and the server storage unit 32. Based on the program, the terminal processing unit 25 and the server processing unit 33 mainly and server 3.

When the progress control unit 331 of the third process receives a lottery request from the mobile terminal 2, the selection unit 334 The lottery process is executed (step S107). The lottery process will be described in detail later. The unit 334 displays the player's hand selected in the lottery process, the updated lottery execution count, and the calculation Display data is created to display the lottery result screen 420 showing the next winning probability ( Step S108). Next, the progress control unit 331 selects the display data created by the selection unit 334. The display information is transmitted from the server 3 to the mobile terminal 2 via the terminal communication unit 21 (step S109). When the data is received, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 performs the following based on the received display data. Drawing data is created and the lottery result screen 420 is displayed on the display unit 24 (step S11 0). With this, the operation sequence relating to the lottery game process ends.

[0114] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of an operation sequence related to the detailed screen display process of the game system 1. This operation sequence is stored in advance in the terminal storage unit 22 and the server storage unit 32. Based on the program, the mobile terminal 2 is mainly operated by the terminal processing unit 25 and the server processing unit 33. and is executed in cooperation with each element of server 3.

[0115] First, in a state where the lottery game screen 410 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the mobile terminal 2, the player When the user presses the details button 414 using the operation unit 23, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 Then, the terminal device 20 transmits a detailed screen request to the server 3 via the terminal communication unit 21 (step S201). When the progress control unit 331 of the server 3 receives a detailed screen request from the mobile terminal 2, the selection unit 334 The winning probability of each group for each lottery execution count is calculated (step S202). The selection unit 334 is configured to display a details screen 430 showing the calculated winning probability for each lottery execution count. Next, the progress control unit 331 creates display data for the selection unit 33 The display data created by the server 3 is transmitted to the mobile terminal 2 (step S204). When display data is received via the terminal communication unit 21, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 Based on the received display data, drawing data is created and a detailed screen 430 is displayed on the display unit 24. This completes the operation sequence for the detailed screen display process. .

[0116] FIG. 9 shows an operation flow of the lottery process by the selection unit 334 and the association unit 335. The home screen display data generating process shown in is executed in step S107 in FIG.

[0117] The selection unit 334 first selects each group in the current lottery based on the number of lottery executions by the player. Next, the selection unit 334 calculates the winning probability of the group (step S301). A group is randomly selected according to probability, and each character in the selected group is A character card is randomly selected from the cards (step S302). The selection unit 334 determines whether or not the featured card has been selected in the lottery (step S30 3). When a character card other than the eyeball card is selected in the lottery, the selection unit 334 If so (step S303-No), the lottery associated with the player in the player table is The selection unit 334 increments the number of selections (step S304). If the highlight card is selected (step S303-Yes), Then, the number of times the lottery is to be executed associated with the player is reset (step S305).

[0118] Next, the associating unit 335 associates the character card selected by the selecting unit 334 with the group. Instead of deleting it from the loop table, add it to the owned card information on the player table. The bonus is then given to the player (step S306), and the series of steps ends.

[0119] In addition, the selection unit 334 selects the winners of each group in the current lottery in step S301. Instead of calculating the winning probability, the winning probability calculated in step S102 of FIG. A lottery may be conducted.

[0120] As described above, the server 3 adjusts the probability of winning the featured card according to the number of times the lottery is performed. This allows for flexible changes, which increases players' expectations for obtaining the featured cards. In addition, the player can win the lottery by repeating the lottery game. You can increase your chances of winning the card, so you can feel like you're developing a lottery game. can be obtained.

[0121] In addition, in the lottery of this embodiment, the winning character card is not deleted from the lottery. Therefore, the player can obtain the character card that he or she won again. You can use the same card to increase the level or upper limit of a character card. In games where players can play, the player can increase the level or upper limit of the character card. It becomes easier.

[0122] In addition, in the case of a lottery where the winning character card is removed from the lottery, all remaining cards In the case of the lottery of this embodiment, the number of lottery runs is increased, whereas the probability of winning the lottery becomes higher. The higher the number of cards, the higher the chance of winning the featured card and the lower the chance of winning other cards. In the lottery of this embodiment, the more the lottery is repeated, the more likely it is that a non-winning card will win. As the odds of winning a card that the player does not want decrease.

[0123] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. The ball cards are determined in advance by the operator of the game system, but the eyeball cards Some or all of the character cards included in the group can be used by the player using the mobile terminal 2. In this way, each player can select the number of the lottery winners according to their requirements. It is now possible to increase the odds of winning the character card you want, and you can participate in the lottery. This can further increase the player's motivation to continue playing.

[0124] In addition, the selection unit 334 selects only the character card selected in the lottery as having a low probability of winning. The odds of winning may be changed so that the odds of winning the featured card are increased. In this case, the selection unit 334 reduces the probability of winning only the character card selected in the lottery. Alternatively, the winning probability may be changed so that the winning probability of all other character cards is increased. This reduces the possibility of winning the same character card multiple times. Therefore, players may be disappointed by getting identical character cards. It is possible to maintain the game element of the lottery game while reducing the game element.

[0125] Conversely, the selection unit 334 selects cards other than the featured card that were not selected in the lottery. The odds of winning the lucky cards are lower, and the odds of winning the featured cards are higher. Alternatively, the selection unit 334 may change the selection probability of the item that was not selected in the lottery. Only the probability of winning character cards other than the ball card will be lowered, and all other character cards will be The probability of winning may be changed so that the probability of winning the same character card is higher. In games where you can increase the upper limit of the parameter value of a character card by This allows the probability of obtaining the same character card to be maintained or improved. The possibility of increasing the upper limit can be maintained or improved.

[0126] In addition, the main game execution unit 333 determines whether the number of times a lottery is executed in the lottery game reaches an upper limit or a predetermined number. When the number is reached, a bonus may be given to the player in the main game. The in-game execution unit 333 executes items and characters to be used in the main game as bonuses. The main game executing unit 333 provides the player with game media such as a bonus card. As a bonus, the game points given to players in the main game will be converted into points that are normally given to players. This allows each player to play the main game more advantageously. The lottery games will be held more frequently so that players can enjoy the game more actively. It becomes possible.

[0127] In addition, when a lottery game is held at each predetermined event period, the server 3 The number of draws (probability of winning the featured card) in the lottery game held during the campaign period is limited. Or when a certain value is reached, the number of times the lottery is executed (the probability of winning the featured card) is set for the next event. In that case, the server 3 may select a specific event. Even after the event period ends, the number of lottery draws (the probability of winning the featured card) will not be deleted and will be used for the next event. As the initial value of the number of draws to be held during the campaign period (the probability of winning the featured card) This allows each player to play the lottery game more in anticipation of future benefits. Since it is executed frequently, it is possible to make the lottery game more lively.

[0128] In the present embodiment, a game other than the main game is described as a lottery game. However, the game is not limited to a lottery game, and may be any game in which a specific game medium is selected. The game may be in any form.

[0129] In the present embodiment, an example in which the selected game content is given to the player will be described. However, if the selected game content is stored in association with the player, it is not necessarily the player's choice. For example, the selected game content may be only viewable by the player. Alternatively, the information may be set so that it can only be provided to other players.

[0130] In addition, the above-mentioned functions of the server processing unit 33 are executed by the device processing unit 25 of the mobile terminal 2. In this case, the player table, the card table and the group table may be stored in the terminal. If the information is stored in the unit 22, it is not necessary to communicate with the server 3 every time processing is performed, and only the mobile terminal 2 The above functions can also be realized by the game executed on the mobile terminal 2. The game may be a hybrid game in which the server 3 and the mobile terminal 2 each handle part of the processing. In that case, for example, each screen related to the progress of the game is based on the display data generated by the server 3. The web display is displayed on the mobile terminal 2 based on the user's request, and other menu screens, etc. are displayed on the mobile terminal 2. The native display will be displayed by the installed native app.

[0131] Those skilled in the art may make various changes, substitutions, and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It should be understood that additions to this are possible. [Explanation of symbols]
