Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.

[0015] (Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention. One embodiment of the present invention​ In the communication system according to the state, the game server 1 (server 1) includes a storage unit 11, an item information transmission unit 12, an item group selection determination unit 13, a control unit 14, and a communication unit 15. It is provided.

[0016] The storage unit 11 stores information related to the items provided, the total number of items, the item type, and the acquisition number, in association with identification information (hereinafter referred to as user identification information) that is uniquely assigned to each user who operates the communication terminal 2. Here, the item refers to various items used in the game, such as, for example, battle cards, characters, weapons, equipment , decorations, plants, food, etc., and can be anything. The item type is a numerical value representing the rarity value of the item, a numerical value representing the category of the item, etc. The higher the value of the item type, the higher the rarity value of the item. Also, the item type is not limited to the above, and may be classified, for example, by parameter values associated with the item. For example, when the item is a battle card, the parameter value is a value indicating the attack power, physical strength, defense power, etc. associated with the battle card.

[0017] Specifically, the storage unit 11 stores the information in separate tables. In the storage unit 11, a plurality of item information tables 111a to 111c, a user information table 112, and an item data table 113 are stored. Here, although three item information tables are described, it is not limited to this, and there may be two or less, or four or more.

[0018] The item information tables 111a to 111c are related to the total number of items and the item type. It is a table containing information. Figures 2(a) to (c) show examples of item information tables 111a to 1 11c. As shown in Figures 2(a) to (c), for example, the item information table 11 1a includes item identification information "UNI1", item name "Item A", item type "3 ", and item group "Item Group 1". The item identification information is an identifier for uniquely identifying an item in this system . Table identification information for uniquely identifying the item information table in this game server 1 is given to item information tables 111 a to 111c. Here, it is assumed that table identification information "TID1", "TID2", and "TID3" is given to item information tables 111a to 111c respectively . An item group is a group that divides the items included in each item information table . The items in the item information table 111a are divided into three item groups, namely item groups 1 to 3. Each item group includes at least one item with a value of item type greater than or equal to a predetermined value (hereinafter referred to as a jackpot item ). Specifically, the value (level) of the predetermined item type is "5". In the example of Figure 2 , although there are three item groups, there may be two or four or more . In the example of Figure 2a, item group 1 contains one jackpot item, item group 2 contains two jackpot items, and item group 3 contains two jackpot items .

[0019] The user information table 112 is a table for storing information for calculating the provided items per user and the acquisition count of items . The user information table 112 stores user identification information ​Associates reports, table identification information, and provided item identification information. Here, the provided item identification information is the item identification information related to the item data that the game server 1 has already provided to the user.

[0020] Fig. 3 shows an example of the user information table 112. As shown in Fig. 3, the user information table 112 includes user identification information "UID1", table identification information "TID1", provided item identification information "UNI2", "UNI4", etc.

[0021] The item data table 113 stores data related to items to be provided to the user (hereinafter referred to as item data). Fig. 4 shows an example of the item data table 113. As shown in Fig. 4, for example, item data includes item identification information "UNI1", item image "Item A image", etc. Note that the image data may be in any image format such as JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc.

[0022] When the item information transmission unit 12 (the first transmission means) receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2, it transmits, to the communication terminal 2, acquirable item information including information related to the total number and the acquired number of items for each item type, based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 stored in the storage unit 11. Specifically, when the item information transmission unit 12 receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2, it totals the total number of items for each item type based on the item information tables 111a to 111c. Further, the item information transmission unit 12 refers to the user information table 112

[0023] and acquires the acquired number of items for each item type. ​​​​​​, based on the provided item identification information and table identification corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, calculate the number of items acquired for each item type. Then, the item information transmission unit 12 transmits the calculated result to the communication terminal 2 as the acquirable item information.

[0024] FIG. 5 is an example of the acquirable item information transmitted by the item information transmission unit 12. FIG. 5 shows an example of the acquirable item information transmitted when the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 is "UID1" and an item information transmission request is received from the communication terminal 2. As shown in FIG. 5 , information 501 related to the total number of items for each item type and information 502 related to the acquirable number are displayed on the communication terminal 2.

[0025] Furthermore, when the item information transmission unit 12 receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2, based on the item information tables 111a to 111c in the storage unit 11, it transmits selection screen information including options corresponding to each item group to the communication terminal 2. That is, the item information transmission unit 12 transmits a selection screen for selecting one item group from a plurality of item groups each containing one or more items at a predetermined level or higher to the communication terminal for the user to operate. An example of the selection screen related to the selection screen information transmitted by the item information transmission unit 12 is shown in FIG. 6. In the selection screen, each option is indicated by selectable selection icons 131 to 133 that can be selected by the communication terminal 2 through user operation. Each of the selection icons 131 to 133 corresponds to item groups 1 to 3, respectively. Each of the selection icons 131 to 133 preferably shows the remaining total number of items and the total number of jackpot items.

[0026] ​​​Preferably, the selection screen may include the total number of items and the acquisition count for each item type in each item group. The obtained count may also be included.

[0027] The item group selection determination unit 13 determines the options of the item group selected by the communication terminal 2. Specifically, the item group selection determination unit 13 receives a selection signal related to the option selected by the user operation in the communication terminal 2, and determines the item group selected by the communication terminal 2 based on the received selection signal. Then, the item group selection determination unit 13 notifies the control unit 14 of the item group selected by the communication terminal 2. The control unit (selection means) 14 performs various controls related to the game server 1. For example, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, it determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13. That is, the control unit 14 selects one item that has not been provided to the user from among the items belonging to the item group selected on the selection screen and determines it as the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. The item group selection determination unit 13 notifies the control unit 14 of the item group selected by the communication terminal 2. The control unit (selection means) 14 performs various controls related to the game server 1. For example, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, it determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13. That is, the control unit 14 selects one item that has not been provided to the user from among the items belonging to the item group selected on the selection screen and determines it as the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2.

[0028] The control unit (selection means) 14 performs various controls related to the game server 1. For example, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, it determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13. That is, the control unit 14 selects one item that has not been provided to the user from among the items belonging to the item group selected on the selection screen and determines it as the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2. When the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13 based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13 based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. That is, the control unit 14 selects one item that has not been provided to the user from among the items belonging to the item group selected on the selection screen and determines it as the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c.

[0029] Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112, obtains the item information table based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and obtains the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 selects one of the item information tables 111a to 111c. Refer to Figure 2, and randomly select from the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13 for items other than the provided item identification information. Subsequently, the control unit 1 4 determines that the item is an item to be provided to the communication terminal 2.

[0030] Then, the control unit 14 transmits the data related to the item to the communication terminal 2 via the communication unit 15. Specifically, the control unit 14 refers to the item data table 113 and transmits the item image corresponding to the item identification information of the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 via the communication unit 15. In addition, the control unit 14 adds the item identification information related to the provided item to the user information table 112 as provided item identification information.

[0031] For example, when the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 is "UID1" and the item group related to the option determined by the item group selection determination unit 13 is item group 1. In this case, when the game server 1 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and acquires the item information table 111a based on the table identification information "TID1" corresponding to UID1. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and acquires the provided item identification information corresponding to "UID1". Subsequently, the control unit 14 refers to the item information table 111a and randomly selects item identification information other than the provided item identification information from item group 1 (for example, "UNI1"). Subsequently, the control unit 14 determines that the item is an item to be provided to the communication terminal 2. Then, the control unit 14 refers to the item data table 113. ​​​​​​​​​Then, it transmits the item image "A Item A Image" corresponding to the item identification information "UNI1" related to the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 via the communication unit 15. Further, the control unit 14 provides the item identification information "UNI1" related to the provided item to the user information table 112 and adds it as the provided item identification information.

[0032] Furthermore, the game server 1 is configured to be able to receive a reset request from the communication terminal 2 at an arbitrary timing. The reset request is, generally speaking, a request for resetting the user information table 112 up to now. When the control unit 14 receives a reset request from the communication terminal 2 related to predetermined user identification information, it changes the table identification information and the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 and stores them in the storage unit 11. Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives a reset request from the communication terminal 2, it changes the table identification information stored in the user information table 112 of the storage unit 11 and corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 to other table identification information.

[0033] For example, when the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 is "UID1" and the control unit 14 receives a reset request from the communication terminal 2, it randomly changes the table identification information corresponding to "UID1" in the user information table 112 from "TID1" to "TID2" or "TID3".

[0034]

[0035] The communication unit 15 (second transmission means) communicates with the communication terminal 2 by at least one of wireless or wired means. Then, under the control of the control unit 14, the item data related to the selected item , and transmits it to the communication terminal 2 operated by the user.

[0036] Next, the operation of the communication system according to the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 7. In addition, it is assumed that the tables shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 in advance are stored in the game server 1 in the storage unit 11 during the operation of the communication system.

[0037] First, when the item information transmission unit 12 receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2 (step S1), based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 stored in the storage unit 11, it transmits the acquirable item information and the selection screen information including the total number and the acquired number of items for each item type to the communication terminal 2. (Step S2).

[0038] Specifically, when the item information transmission unit 12 receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2, it totals the total number of items for each item type based on the item information tables 111a to 111c. Further, the item information transmission unit 12 refers to the user information table 112, and calculates the acquired number of items for each item type based on the provided item identification information and the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Then, the item information transmission unit 12 transmits the calculated result to the communication terminal 2 as acquirable item information. Furthermore, the item information transmission unit 12 transmits the selection screen information including options corresponding to each item group to the communication terminal 2 based on the item information tables 111a to 111c in the storage unit 11.

[0039] Subsequently, the communication terminal 2 transmits a selection signal related to the option selected based on the user's selection ( ​​​​​​​Step S3), the item group selection determination unit 13 of the server 1 determines the item group selected by the communication terminal 2 (step S4). Specifically, the item group selection determination unit 13 receives the selection signal related to the option selected by the user operation in the communication terminal 2 and determines the option selected by the communication terminal 2 based on the received selection signal. Then the item group selection determination unit 13 notifies the control unit 14 of the item group related to the option selected by the communication terminal 2.

[0040] Subsequently, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2 (step S5 ), it refers to the user information table 112 and, based on the information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, determines one item to be provided to the communication terminal 2 from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13 (step S6).

[0041] Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives an item acquisition request from the communication terminal 2, it refers to the user information table 112 and, based on the table identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, acquires the item information table. Next, the control unit 14 refers to the user information table 112 and acquires the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2. Subsequently, the control unit 14 refers to any one of the item information tables 111a to 111c and randomly selects an item other than the provided item identification information from among the item groups related to the options determined by the item group selection determination unit 13. Then the control unit 1 4 determines the item as the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2.

[0042] Subsequently, the control unit 14 provides the item to the communication terminal 2 via the communication unit 15 (step S7). Specifically, the control unit 14 refers to the item data table 113 and transmits, via the communication unit 15, an item image corresponding to the item identification information related to the item to be provided to the communication terminal 2. Also, the control unit 14 adds the item identification information related to the provided item to the provided item identification information in the user information table 112.

[0043] Furthermore, when the control unit 14 receives a reset request from the communication terminal 2 related to predetermined user identification information (step S8), it changes the table identification information and the provided item identification information corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2, and stores them in the storage unit 11 (step S9).

[0044] Specifically, when the control unit 14 receives a reset request from the communication terminal 2, it changes the table identification information stored in the user information table 112 of the storage unit 11 and corresponding to the user identification information related to the communication terminal 2 to other table identification information.

[0045] As described above, according to the present invention, since the item information transmission unit 12 transmits the selection screen information of the item group obtained by dividing the items included in each item information table to the communication terminal 2 to allow the user to select, the variations in the acquisition method of the battle cards and the like are increased, and the acquisition predictability of cards and the like with a high numerical value of the item type is enhanced, thereby improving the interest in the game.

[0046] Furthermore, since each item group includes at least one jackpot item, for example, in the item group shown in FIG. 2, if the item acquisition request is made up to 10 times at most, it is certain that ​​​​​​​​​​​​It is possible to obtain a jackpot item. Thus, according to the present invention, the number of item types The predictability of obtaining a card or the like with a high value can be enhanced, and the interest in the game can be improved.

[0047] In this embodiment, when the item information transmission unit 12 receives an item information transmission request from the communication terminal 2, it transmits the acquirable item information and the selection screen information However, it is not limited to this, and only the selection screen information may be transmitted. That is, when configured in this way, in step S2, the item information transmission unit 12 transmits the selection screen information to the communication terminal 2.

[0048] Also, in this embodiment, the jackpot item has been described as an item of an item type having a value equal to or higher than a predetermined value. However, it is not limited to this. For example, it may be defined by a parameter value associated with the item rather than the value of the item type. An item associated with a value equal to or higher than a threshold value for a predetermined parameter value may also be used as the jackpot item.

[0049] In addition, when the control unit 14 provides an item to the communication terminal 2 and the jackpot item, that is, an item having a value equal to or higher than a predetermined item type, is no longer included in the item group, the item information transmission unit 12 may transmit selection screen information in which the options corresponding to the item group are made unselectable. FIG. 8 shows an example of a selection screen after providing the jackpot item. As shown in FIG. 8, the item type of the jackpot item is displayed in the item group for which the jackpot item has been provided. Then, the options of the item group are made unselectable. ​​​​​​​​​​By doing so, after obtaining a jackpot item, there is no need to attempt to obtain an item that is not a jackpot item, and since the probability of obtaining a jackpot item is increased, the user's interest in the game can be improved.

[0050] Also, when a plurality of jackpot items are included in one item group, when the control unit 14 provides an item to the communication terminal 2 and the number of jackpot items in the item group decreases by one or more, the option corresponding to the item group may be made unselectable and selection screen information may be transmitted.
