[0047] Turn-based chess game: refers to a chess game in which the pieces are arranged in advance before the game, and the pieces can automatically fight according to the pre-arrangement during the game. The pieces are usually represented by virtual objects, such as virtual heroes. During the game, the virtual objects automatically release various skills to fight. The game usually adopts a turn-based system, and when the pieces of one side are all killed (i.e. the life value of the virtual object is reduced to zero), that side is the losing side of this round of game. In some embodiments, in addition to the piece-type virtual objects for playing the game, each side is also provided with a player character representing the current user participating in the game. The player character cannot be moved to the game area or the piece candidate area as a piece, and the player character is also provided with a life value (or blood value). The life value of the player character is reduced (game loss) or unchanged (game win) according to the result of each game, and when the life value of the virtual object is reduced to zero, the user corresponding to the player character exits the game, and the remaining user continues the game. Optionally, the turn-based chess game includes a self-moving chess game.

[0048] Self-moving chess game: a multi-player turn-based competitive game with in-game collectible hero pieces. For example, there are eight or six users (also referred to as players) in the game, each occupying an area on the chessboard. Two users among the multiple users engage in a one-on-one game. In each round of a game, there is a preparation phase and a game phase. In the preparation phase, the user purchases pieces (heroes) in the store and arranges the pieces on the chessboard; in the game phase, the lineup of both sides is locked, and the pieces will automatically fight until all the pieces of one side are killed, and the side with all the pieces killed is the loser of this round and will be deducted a certain amount of blood. The game rounds are repeated, new opponents are matched, and the user with a life value ≤ 0 is eliminated from the game until only one user remains, who will win the game (1st place).

[0049] Chessboard: refers to the area used for preparing and playing the game in the turn-based chess game interface. The chessboard can be any of a two-dimensional virtual chessboard, a 2.5-dimensional virtual chessboard, and a three-dimensional virtual chessboard, which are not limited in this application.

[0050] Attributes: in the self-moving chess game, the attributes of the pieces include basic attributes and functional attributes. The basic attributes include but are not limited to at least one of the following: life value, magic value, attack power, spell strength, armor, magic resistance, attack speed, and attack range. The functional attributes include but are not limited to at least one of the following: economic gain in the game round and free refresh. The attributes of the pieces can affect the fighting ability of the pieces, and the stronger the attributes of the pieces, the greater the probability of winning in the game.

[0051] Equipment: In a self-moving chess game, each chess piece can generally wear 3 pieces of equipment (or other pieces of equipment), which can provide heroes with attributes or effects such as attack, defense, health, healing, penetration, shield, etc. The related art self-moving chess game usually has a wild area, and the player can obtain the equipment dropped by the wild monster by defeating the wild monster and picking up the equipment into the backpack.

[0068] For example, the attribute values of the virtual character can be the blood volume of the virtual character, and the blood volume of the virtual character can be displayed around the virtual character in the game interface corresponding to different game rounds. The display mode of the blood volume can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: bar display, ring display, or numerical display. When different game objects (users) play the game in the game round, the game object that loses the game can deduct a part of the blood volume of the virtual character. In this embodiment, the game object (user) can be an observation object.

[0069] In step 202, during the game process of the battle game, observation information is displayed, the observation information indicates a game to be observed selected by an observation object.

[0070] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, the observation information includes at least one of the title of the game to be observed, the avatar of the observed object, or the name of the observed object, the observed object is an object participating in the game to be observed. In some embodiments, the game to be observed selected by the observation object can be different from the battle game in which the observation object participates. For example, referring to FIG. 5, the observation object is user 20, and the opponent object of the observation object is user 10, that is, user 20 and user 10 are in the battle round of the battle game. The observed object is user 40, that is, user 20 is observing the game process of user 40 and the opponent object of user 40.

[0071] For example, the information display area can display the avatar of the user account participating in the battle game and the name of the user account. During the game process of the battle game, the observation object can select the avatar of the user account or the name of the user account to determine the game to be observed, the game to be observed is the game in which the game object corresponding to the avatar of the user account or the name of the user account participates. The information display area can also directly display the title of the game to be observed, and the title of the game to be observed can include the basic information of the game, for example, the basic information can include the avatar of the user account or the name of the user account.

[0072] The game session of the game of war is taken as an example to illustrate the game session of the round-based game. The game of war can include multiple game rounds, and each game round can match the accounts of multiple game objects two by two, and the two accounts matched together can fight in the same chessboard in the current game round. The game round in which the account of the game object of the game of war is located is the first game round, and the game rounds in which the accounts of the remaining game objects are located are the second game round, and the accounts of the game objects in the second game round can be the accounts that can be watched.

[0073] For example, each game session can include 8 accounts of game objects, and the 8 accounts of game objects are matched two by two to obtain 4 game rounds. The game round in which the account of the game object of the game of war is located is determined as the first game round, and the remaining 3 game rounds are the second game round, and the second game round can include 6 accounts of game objects.

It should be noted that other game elements can also be displayed in the game interface, the related content of the other game elements has been described in detail in FIG. 3, and can be referred to the related content of FIG. 3, which will not be described in detail here.

[0079] The technical scheme provided in the exemplary embodiments of the present application displays the viewing information through the triggering operation of the viewing control. The viewing information can include candidate viewing objects. The candidate viewing objects can include not only game objects participating in the current game (game in progress), but also game objects participating in other game sessions. The candidate viewing objects of the current game can be potential opponent objects. Through subsequent viewing of the candidate viewing objects of the current game, the viewing object can learn the relevant information of the opponent objects in advance, improve the understanding of the game strategy and game information of the candidate viewing objects, and thus better arrange the game strategy, and to a certain extent, improve the winning probability of the viewing object. The candidate viewing objects of the current game can also include game objects of other game sessions. Through subsequent viewing of the game objects of other game sessions, the viewing object can learn the game strategy arrangement of the game objects of other game sessions, improve the game level, and thus improve the winning probability and game experience of the viewing object.

[0080] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, the viewing information can be determined from the multiple game information before the viewing information is displayed. The process of determining the viewing information from the multiple game objects can include: obtaining a first game lineup corresponding to a virtual character in the game in progress; determining a recommended session based on the first game lineup, wherein a second game lineup corresponding to a virtual character in the recommended session has a similarity to the first game lineup greater than or equal to a similarity threshold; and generating the viewing information based on the recommended session.

[0081] Exemplarily, the game in progress can be a game session in which the viewing object participates in a turn-based chess game, or a game session in which the viewing object participates in a turn. Taking the game in progress as an example, the first game lineup can include information about the chess pieces and equipment owned by the viewing object and the opponent object in the game in progress. The information about the chess pieces and equipment can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: chess piece type, chess piece level, chess piece cost, chess piece skill, bond between chess pieces, equipment type, equipment level, equipment cost, and equipment bonus effect on chess pieces. The first game lineup can also include information about the chess pieces and equipment being used by the viewing object and the opponent object in the game in progress. The game lineup in each game session in the preparation stage or the battle stage in the game system is obtained, and the similarity of the game lineup in each game session to the first game lineup is determined.

[0082] The process of determining the similarity of the game formation in each game round session to the first game formation can include: extracting features of the relevant information of the chess pieces and equipment owned by the spectating object and the opponent object to obtain a first feature vector corresponding to the first game formation, wherein the first feature vector can be a multi-dimensional feature vector, and each dimension represents a feature of the first game formation. For example, the type, level or cost of the chess pieces can all be used as a feature vector of one dimension. A second feature vector corresponding to the game formation in each game round session is determined, and the process of determining the second feature vector is similar to that of determining the first feature vector, and reference can be made to the relevant description of determining the first feature vector, which will not be described in detail here.

[0083] After the first feature vector and the second feature vector are determined, the similarity of the first feature vector and the second feature vector can be calculated using a similarity algorithm. The similarity can represent the degree of similarity of the game formation in the game round session in which the spectating object participates to the game formation in other game round sessions; the similarity algorithm can include but is not limited to at least one of the following: cosine similarity, Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, Pearson correlation coefficient and Hamming distance. Optionally, in the process of determining the similarity of the two feature vectors, corresponding weights can be assigned to the features of different dimensions in the feature vector. For example, the higher the level of the chess pieces, the greater the corresponding weight. It should be noted that the weights corresponding to the features of different dimensions can be set based on the actual game situation, and the present application does not limit this.

[0084] The similarity of the first feature vector and the second feature vector is compared with a similarity threshold value, and the second feature vector with a similarity greater than or equal to the similarity threshold value is selected to obtain a recommended session corresponding to the second feature vector. The similarity threshold value can be set based on the actual situation. The game object participating in the recommended session is obtained, and the spectating information is generated based on the relevant information of the recommended session. The relevant information of the recommended session can include but is not limited to the relevant information of the game object participating in the recommended session, for example, the relevant information of the game object participating in the recommended session can include the avatar of the game object and the name of the game object.

[0085] Optionally, the second feature vector selected is sorted in descending order of similarity, thereby obtaining the order of the multiple recommended sessions corresponding to the second feature vector, and the order of the recommended sessions is used to determine the order of the spectating information. The spectating information can be displayed in the game interface based on the order, and the similarity of the second game formation corresponding to the recommended session and the first game formation corresponding to the game session can also be displayed in the game interface. By displaying the similarity of the formations in order in the game interface, the spectating object can quickly determine the spectating information with a larger formation similarity, which can improve the efficiency of the spectating object in determining the observed object based on the spectating information in the subsequent process, i.e., improve the spectating efficiency.

[0086] The technical scheme provided in the example embodiments of the present application can calculate the similarity of the formation corresponding to the participating game session and the formation corresponding to the other game session, determine the recommended game session by using the similarity, determine the viewing information based on the recommended game session, and recommend the recommended game session corresponding to the second game formation similar to the first game formation of the participating game session, so that the viewing object can directly learn the game strategy similar to the participating game session of the viewing object, assist the viewing object in game layout, improve the learning efficiency and winning probability of the viewing object, and thus improve the game experience of the viewing object.

[0087] In step 203, in the case that the viewing information is selected, the viewing game session information and the participating game session information are displayed, the viewing game session information represents the game process of the game session being viewed, and the participating game session information represents the game process of the participating game session.

[0088] In the example embodiments of the present application, at least one viewing information can be displayed in the game interface, and the viewing object can select any viewing information by a selection operation. The game session being viewed is determined based on the selected viewing information, and the game session being viewed can include the viewed object. The selection operation can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: single-click operation, double-click operation, long-press operation, and sliding operation on the viewing information.

[0089] After the viewing information is selected, the display mode of the selected viewing information can be different from that of the unselected viewing information. For example, the display mode of the selected viewing information can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: marked display, shadow display, highlight display, dynamic display, magnification display, reduction display, color change display, and pattern display on the area containing the avatar of the viewed object or the name of the viewed object in the selected viewing information. Taking the display mode of the selected viewing information as an example, the viewing identifier can be displayed in the game viewing interface, and the viewing identifier is used to mark the viewed object, i.e., the object determined based on the selected viewing information. It should be noted that the display mode of the viewed object is an example, and the display mode of the viewed object can also be set based on the actual game situation, which is not limited in the present application.

[0090] After the viewed object is selected, the game viewing interface can be automatically jumped to, and the game viewing interface can include a viewing area, which can display the viewing game session information, and the viewing game session information can include the game process of the viewed object. For example, the viewing area of the game viewing interface can synchronously display the game screen of the terminal of the viewed object. In addition, the game viewing interface can also include an information prompt area, which can display the participating game session information, and the participating game session information includes the real-time game information of the target game round participated by the viewing object.

[0091] Optionally, the game watching interface can further display a virtual character of the watching object, and the virtual character of the watching object can be located in the battle area or the standby area in the watching area, indicating that the watching object is watching. For example, at least one of the following can be displayed: a head portrait, a name, a pattern, an icon, and a character image of the virtual character of the watching object.

[0092] For example, the participating game information can include battle information of virtual objects, and the virtual objects are all virtual objects or part of virtual objects in the participating game, and the part of virtual objects are selected virtual objects or virtual objects with battle ability greater than or equal to an ability threshold.

[0093] For example, the participating game information can include battle information of virtual objects, and the virtual objects are all virtual objects or part of virtual objects in the participating game, and the part of virtual objects are selected virtual objects or virtual objects with battle ability greater than or equal to an ability threshold.

[0094] For example, the participating game information can include battle information of virtual objects, and the virtual objects are all virtual objects or part of virtual objects in the participating game, and the part of virtual objects are selected virtual objects or virtual objects with battle ability greater than or equal to an ability threshold.

[0095] In another example, the information prompt area can display battle information of the virtual objects, the virtual objects being part of the virtual objects in the game round of the participating game session. For example, before jumping to the game watching interface, part of the virtual objects, i.e., part of the chess pieces, can be determined. The part of the chess pieces can be the default chess pieces set in the watching process, the battle capability of the default chess pieces being greater than or equal to the capability threshold; or the part of the chess pieces can be the chess pieces selected by the watching object. It should be noted that the chess pieces can be the chess pieces of the watching object or the chess pieces of the opponent object of the watching object, and the present application does not limit the chess pieces.

[0096] In addition, the battle capability can be determined based on at least one of the type of the chess piece, the level of the chess piece, the level of the equipment worn by the chess piece, the type of the equipment, and the bond effect between different chess pieces; and the chess piece capability threshold can be set based on the actual battle situation. During the watching process, the watching object can adjust the chess piece capability threshold; or the information prompt area can display a fixed number of chess pieces, the chess pieces being sorted in descending order of the battle capability, and the battle capability threshold being determined based on the battle capability sorting and the fixed number. For example, the information prompt area can display three chess pieces, and the battle capability of the chess piece ranked third in the battle capability sorting is taken as the battle capability threshold. It should be noted that the setting of the battle capability threshold is exemplary, and the battle capability threshold can be determined by other manners, and the present application does not limit the battle capability threshold.

[0097] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of another game watching interface containing part of the chess pieces according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 6, the game watching interface can include an information prompt area 601, and the information prompt area 601 can display the battle process of the user 20 and the user 10. For example, the information prompt area 601 can display part of the chess pieces of the user 20 and the user 10 that are in the battle, and the part of the chess pieces can be the chess pieces of the user 10 whose battle capability is greater than or equal to the capability threshold. It should be noted that the game watching interface can also display other game elements, and the related content of the other game elements has been described in detail in FIG. 5, and the related content of FIG. 5 can be referred to, and the present application does not limit the game watching interface.

[0098] The technical scheme provided in the exemplary embodiments of the present application can make the spectator object in the spectating process be able to know the detailed information of the virtual object in the participating game round of the participating game in real time, and improve the comprehensiveness of the displayed information of the virtual object. The battle information of the virtual object displayed in the game spectating interface can be part of the virtual objects in the participating game round of the participating game, which can facilitate the spectator object to quickly and specifically know the information of part of the virtual objects in the participating game round of the participating game, reduce the density of the information acquisition of the virtual object, improve the flexibility of the information acquisition of the virtual object, and thus improve the efficiency of the information acquisition of the virtual object in the spectating process.

[0099] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, after the virtual object is displayed in the game spectating interface, the related information of the virtual object is displayed when the virtual object is triggered, and the related information of the virtual object includes at least one of the name, skill introduction, level, cost or virtual equipment related to the virtual object of the virtual object.

[0100] Exemplarily, the information prompt region of the game spectating interface can display a plurality of virtual objects (i.e. chess pieces), and the spectator object can select any chess piece to trigger. After any chess piece is triggered, the related information of the triggered chess piece can be displayed, which can include but is not limited to at least one of the name, skill introduction, level, cost or virtual equipment that the chess piece can wear. The chess piece can have at least one skill, and different skills can have different effects after acting on the opponent chess piece. The related information of the chess piece can include specific introduction of each skill of the triggered chess piece. The cost of the chess piece is the game resource consumed for purchasing the chess piece, and the level of the chess piece can be represented by the star level. Different star levels of the chess piece have different attribute values, i.e. different star levels of the chess piece have different battle abilities. Each chess piece can wear a certain number of virtual equipment, and different virtual equipment can add different attributes of the chess piece. For example, the higher the star level of the chess piece, the stronger the battle ability of the chess piece, and the greater the possibility of winning. Similarly, the virtual equipment can also have different levels, and the higher the level of the virtual equipment, the better the addition effect of the attribute of the chess piece after the virtual equipment is used.

[0101] Take a virtual object as a chess piece as an example. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of a game watching interface provided by an embodiment of the present application, which includes information of a chess piece. As shown in FIG. 7, the game watching interface can include an information prompt area 701, and the information prompt area 701 can display a plurality of chess pieces. For example, the chess pieces displayed in the information prompt area 701 are chess piece D, chess piece E and chess piece F. When any chess piece displayed in the information prompt area 701 is triggered, the related information 702 of the triggered chess piece can be displayed, wherein the related information 702 of the chess piece can include the name of the chess piece, the level of the chess piece, the cost of the chess piece, the skill introduction of the chess piece and the introduction of the equipment worn by the chess piece. For example, when the chess piece D is triggered, the related information 702 of the chess piece D can be displayed, which includes the name of the chess piece D, the level of the chess piece D (4 stars), the cost of the chess piece D (1 fee), the skill introduction of the chess piece D and the introduction of the equipment worn by the chess piece D. It should be noted that the related information of the chess piece is exemplary and the related information of the displayed chess piece can be set based on the actual game situation, which is not limited in the present application.

[0102] The technical scheme provided by the exemplary embodiments of the present application can display the virtual objects in the game round of the participating game in the participating game in the game watching interface, and when any virtual object is triggered, the related information of the virtual object can be directly displayed in the game watching interface, which simplifies the process of obtaining the related information of the virtual object in the game round of the participating game in the participating game, and improves the efficiency of obtaining the related information of the virtual object.

[0103] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, the battle information of the virtual object includes the life value of the virtual object, and the life value of the virtual object is determined based on the battle process of the participating game, and the life value of the virtual object is displayed. For example, in the process of watching the game by the watching object, the virtual objects (chess pieces) in the game round of the participating game can automatically fight, and the life value of the chess pieces will change in the process of fighting between the chess pieces of the watching object and the opponent object. The life value of each chess piece is determined based on the battle process of the game round in the participating game, and the life value of each chess piece is displayed in the information prompt area in the game watching interface.

[0104] FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of an information prompt area containing the life values of the chess pieces according to an example embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 8, the information prompt area can include the battle game object information 801 (i.e., the spectator object information and the opponent object information) of the game round of the participating game and the chess pieces 802. For example, the game round of the participating game is the game round in which the user 20 and the user 10 participate, the number of the chess pieces of the user 20 is three, which are chess piece A, chess piece B and chess piece C, and the number of the chess pieces of the user 10 is three, which are chess piece D, chess piece E and chess piece F. The information prompt area can also display the life values 803 and the levels 804 of the respective chess pieces, wherein the life values 803 are the real-time life values of the respective chess pieces in the target game round, and the life values 803 can change as the chess pieces of the user 20 and the user 10 fight; the level 804 of the chess piece can be represented by the number of the pentagrams, and the more the number of the pentagrams, the higher the level 804 of the chess piece.

[0105] The technical scheme provided by the example embodiments of the present application can display the life values of the virtual objects in the game round of the participating game of the participating game in the game spectator interface in real time, so that the spectator object can master the game progress of the participating game in which the spectator object participates in real time while spectating, can understand the battle situation of the participating game without switching the game interface, can master the game progress of the participating game in which the spectator object participates while ensuring the continuity of the spectating process, and thus the flexibility of the spectating process is improved.

[0106] In the example embodiments of the present application, the prompt information can also be generated based on the participating game information corresponding to the participating game. The process of generating the prompt information based on the participating game information can include: in the case that the participating game information meets the prompt condition, displaying the prompt information corresponding to the prompt condition, the prompt condition including at least one of the following: the number of the virtual objects changes, the number of the virtual objects is less than or equal to the number threshold, the life value of any virtual object is less than or equal to the first life value threshold, or the change amount of the life value of any virtual object within the first time length is greater than or equal to the second life value threshold, and the virtual object is the object fighting in the participating game. Optionally, the prompt information can be automatically cancelled after the display time length of the prompt information reaches the specified time length.

[0107] For example, the prompt condition can be the condition set by the spectator object in the spectating process, or can be the default condition in the game system. The participating game information of the participating game is detected, and when it is detected that the participating game information meets the prompt condition, the corresponding prompt information is generated and displayed in the game spectator interface. The prompt information generated based on the participating game information can include but is not limited to at least one of the following cases one to four. Taking the virtual object as a chess piece as an example for description.

[0108] In a first case, when the number of chess pieces in the participating game session changes, a first prompt information is displayed.

[0109] Exemplarily, in the participating game session of the participating game session, when a chess piece of the spectator object or a chess piece of the opponent object is killed in the battle process, the number of chess pieces in the participating game session of the participating game session changes, and the first prompt information can be displayed in the information prompt area in the game spectator interface. The first prompt information is used to prompt the information that the chess piece in the participating game session of the participating game session is killed.

[0110] In an embodiment, the number of chess pieces changes to the killing of the chess piece of the other party by the chess piece of the self party. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of a game spectator interface provided by an embodiment of the present application and containing a first prompt information. As shown in FIG. 9, when the chess piece of the self party kills the chess piece of the other party, the number of chess pieces in the target game session changes, and the first prompt information can be displayed in the information prompt area 901 in the game spectator interface. The first prompt information can be the killing broadcast of the chess piece in the participating game session of the participating game session. For example, the first prompt information is “the chess piece A of the self party kills the chess piece F of the other party”. Moreover, when the number of chess pieces in the target game session changes, the participating game session information is updated accordingly. For example, when the chess piece F is killed, the life value of the chess piece F is 0, the display mode of the killed chess piece F is different from that of the chess pieces D and E which are not killed, and the total number of chess pieces of the other party is updated accordingly.

[0111] In another embodiment, the number of chess pieces changes to the killing of the chess piece of the self party by the chess piece of the other party. FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of another game spectator interface provided by an embodiment of the present application and containing a first prompt information. As shown in FIG. 10, when the chess piece of the self party is killed by the chess piece of the other party, the number of chess pieces in the participating game session of the participating game session changes, and the first prompt information can be displayed in the information prompt area 1001 in the game spectator interface. The first prompt information can be the killing broadcast of the chess piece in the participating game session of the participating game session. For example, the first prompt information is “the chess piece E of the other party kills the chess piece C of the self party”. Moreover, when the number of chess pieces in the participating game session changes, the participating game session information is updated accordingly. For example, the total number of chess pieces of the self party is updated.

[0112] Optionally, the display mode of the first prompt information generated when the chess piece of the self party is killed can be different from that of the first prompt information generated when the chess piece of the other party is killed. For example, the first prompt information generated when the chess piece of the self party is killed can be displayed intensively. The intensive display can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: highlight display, shadow display, dynamic display, patterned display, enlarged display, reduced display, changed font display, vibration display, and changed color display.

[0113] In case two, when the number of chess pieces of the virtual character of the spectator in the game is less than or equal to the number threshold, the second prompt information is displayed.

[0114] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, in the game round of the game, when the chess piece of the spectator or the chess piece of the opponent in the game is killed by the chess piece of the opponent, the number of the chess piece of the spectator is less than the number threshold, the second prompt information is generated, and the second prompt information is displayed in the information prompt area of the game spectator interface. The number threshold can be a threshold set by the spectator or a threshold by default of the game system. For example, when the number of the chess piece of the virtual character of the spectator is less than or equal to 2, the second prompt information is displayed in the information prompt area of the game spectator interface, reminding the spectator that the number of the chess piece of the spectator is too small.

[0115] In case three, when the number of chess pieces of the virtual character of the spectator or the number of chess pieces of the opponent in the game is less than or equal to the first life threshold, the third prompt information is displayed.

[0116] Exemplarily, in the game round of the game, the life value of each chess piece can be detected in real time, when the life value of any chess piece is less than or equal to the first life threshold, i.e. the life value of the chess piece is small and easy to be killed or killed, the third prompt information is generated, and the third prompt information is displayed in the information prompt area of the game spectator interface. The first life threshold can be determined based on the total life value of the chess piece. For example, the first life threshold can be 10% of the total life value of the chess piece. When the life value of the chess piece of the opponent or the chess piece of the opponent is not higher than the first life threshold, the third prompt information can be used to remind the chess piece with low life value.

[0117] In case four, when the change amount of the life value of any chess piece in the first time length is greater than or equal to the second life threshold, the fourth prompt information is displayed.

[0118] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, in the game round of the game, the life value of each chess piece is detected by the game system during the game between the chess piece of the opponent and the chess piece of the opponent. When it is detected that the life value of the chess piece changes obviously, i.e. the change amount of the life value of the chess piece in the first time length is greater than or equal to the second life threshold, the fourth prompt information is generated, and the fourth prompt information is displayed in the information prompt area of the game spectator interface. The first time length and the second life threshold can be the time length and the threshold set by the opponent, or the time length and the threshold by default of the game system.

[0119] It should be noted that the application exemplarily illustrates the content of the prompt condition and the prompt information corresponding to the prompt condition, and the prompt condition and the prompt information can be set based on the actual situation of the game, and the application does not limit this.

[0120] In addition, for the chess pieces in the first to fourth cases, the first to fourth prompt information can be generated based on the chess piece selected by the watching object. For example, the watching object can select the key chess piece of the self party or the key chess piece of the opposite party for detection, and when the key chess piece is killed or the life value of the key chess piece meets the prompt condition, the corresponding prompt information is generated.

[0121] The technical scheme provided in the exemplary embodiments of the application generates prompt information based on the participating game information corresponding to the participating game corresponding to the watching object in the watching process, so that the watching object can quickly and simply understand the game process of the virtual object in the participating game through the prompt information in the watching process, key information of the participating game is not missed, and the flexibility of the watching process is improved.

[0122] In the exemplary embodiments of the application, after the prompt information is displayed, the first prompt video is displayed in response to the trigger operation of the prompt information, and the first prompt video is a game video corresponding to the time when the participating game information meets the prompt condition.

[0123] Taking the change of the number of chess pieces as an example, when a chess piece is killed in the participating game, a corresponding killing process video, that is, the first prompt video, can be generated. When the prompt information is triggered, the killing process video can be displayed on the game watching interface or automatically jump to the game interface of the participating game and play back the killing process video.

[0124] FIG. 11 is a process schematic diagram of displaying the first prompt video according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in FIG. 11, the prompt information can be displayed in the information prompt region 1101 of the game watching interface, and after the first prompt information is triggered, a playing interface of the first prompt video is displayed. For example, the prompt information is “the chess piece E of the opposite party kills the chess piece C of the self party”, and after the prompt information is triggered, the game interface of the participating game is automatically jumped to, and the process video of the chess piece E of the opposite party killing the chess piece C of the self party is played back in the game interface.

[0125] The technical scheme provided in the exemplary embodiments of the application displays the corresponding first prompt video through the trigger operation of the prompt information, the first prompt video is a game video corresponding to the time when the prompt information meets the prompt condition, and the watching object can view the key game progress in the participating game through the first prompt video, thereby accumulating game experience for the subsequent game process of the watching object and improving the game level.

[0126] Exemplarily, when the first prompt video finishes playing or exits playing, the game watching information and the participating game information are continuously displayed. For example, when the first prompt video is displayed in the game watching interface, when it is detected that the first prompt video finishes playing or the watching object exits playing the first prompt video, the first prompt video is canceled from the game watching interface; or when the first prompt video is displayed in the game interface corresponding to the participating game, when it is detected that the first prompt video finishes playing or the watching object exits playing the first prompt video, the game watching interface is automatically jumped to.

[0127] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, after the participating game information is displayed in the game watching interface, in response to the trigger operation of the participating game information, a second prompt video is displayed, and the second prompt video is a real-time game video of a virtual object in the participating game.

[0128] Exemplarily, the game watching interface can include a watching area and an information prompt area. The watching process of the watched object can be displayed in the watching area, and the participating game information of the participating game can be displayed in the information prompt area. The trigger operation of the participating game information includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: a single-click operation, a double-click operation, a long-press operation, and a sliding operation on the participating game information. After the participating game information is triggered, the second prompt video can be displayed in the information prompt area of the game watching interface, and the second prompt video is a real-time game video of a virtual object in the participating game.

[0129] Optionally, the information prompt area can be embedded in the game watching interface or float above the game watching interface. When the information prompt area is embedded in the game watching interface, the information prompt area can be a fixed area of the game watching interface; when the information prompt area floats above the game watching interface, the watching object can adjust the position of the information prompt area.

[0130] The technical scheme provided in the exemplary embodiments of the present application can display the second prompt video, i.e., the real-time game video of a virtual object in the participating game, through the trigger operation of the participating game information, so that the watching object can view the real-time game video of the own game round in the watching process, the watching object can obtain the change of the game information in the participating game in real time, and the watching object can consider both the watching process and the game process of the own participating game, thereby improving the display efficiency of the game information and the game experience to a certain extent.

[0131] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, after the watching information is selected, a folding control for controlling the display mode of the participating game information can also be displayed; in the case that the display mode of the participating game information is the expanded display, in response to a first trigger operation of the folding control, the participating game information is displayed in the hidden display mode, that is, the participating game information is hidden and not displayed.

[0132] Exemplarily, the information prompt region of the game watching interface can display a folding control, and the first trigger operation and the second trigger operation of the folding control can include, but are not limited to, at least one of the following: single-click operation, double-click operation, long-press operation and sliding operation. The first trigger operation and the second trigger operation can be the same or different. When the participating game information is displayed in the expanded mode, the folding control is triggered to hide the displayed participating game information; when the folding control is triggered again, the participating game information is displayed in the expanded mode.

[0133] FIG. 12 is a process diagram for hiding and displaying the participating game information according to an embodiment of the present application.
