Similarly, when the quest screen selection operation unit 30c is tapped, the quest screen shown in FIG. 3C is displayed on the display 26. Further, when the gacha screen selection operation unit 30d is tapped, the gacha screen (see FIG. 6A) is displayed on the display 26. Further, when the menu screen selection operation unit 30e is tapped, a menu screen (not shown) is displayed on the display 26.

As described above, the normal screen is roughly divided into five screens. In the menu bar 30, the operation unit corresponding to each screen is highlighted so that the screen being displayed on the display 26 can be identified.

The home screen shown in FIG. 3A corresponds to the initial screen, and a header display area 31 is provided at the upper part. In the header display area 31, level information 31a indicating the player's level associated with the player ID and stamina display bar 31b indicating the player's stamina associated with the player ID are displayed.

Stamina is a parameter required to play a battle game. In this embodiment, a plurality of types of battle games are provided, and each battle game is set with a consumption value of stamina required for play and a maximum number of times that it can be executed per day. When playing a battle game in which the consumption value of stamina required for play is set, the player consumes stamina to play the battle game, so if the stamina is insufficient, the battle game Can't play.

Although detailed description is omitted, when the player wins the battle game, he / she can acquire a predetermined value as the player experience value. Then, each time the player experience value reaches a certain value, the player level rises. An upper limit of stamina is set for the player level, and as the player level rises, the upper limit of stamina also increases. Stamina recovers by a predetermined value (for example, 1 point) at regular intervals (for example, 5 minutes) within the range of the upper limit value. The stamina display bar 31b is displayed so that the current remaining amount of stamina can be visually grasped with respect to the upper limit value of stamina.

That is, on the ally character confirmation screen, all ally characters possessed by the player are displayed. The ally character ID is for identifying the ally character, and a different ID is assigned to each ally character. Then, when the player acquires a new ally character by, for example, a reward lottery described in detail later, the ally character ID of the acquired ally character is associated with the player ID of the player.

Experience points and levels are stored in association with each ally character. Experience points increase when you win a battle game described later, or when you use a predetermined item. The level is set according to the experience value, and the level increases each time the experience value reaches a predetermined value. An upper limit of the level is set for each ally character, and the level rises only within the range up to the upper limit.

In addition, the base value of combat power such as life point, attack power, and defense power is set for the ally character based on the level. The higher the fighting power of the ally character, the more advantageous the player can advance the battle game. In addition, each base value set for the ally character increases as the level increases.

In addition, friendly characters can be equipped (set) with weapons and armor equipment. For each equipment, an additional value for attack power, defense power, etc. is set. When equipment is equipped, the added value of each equipment is added to the above base value, and the fighting power of the ally character can be increased.

On the quest screen shown in FIG. 3C, a plurality of game selection operation units 33 for selecting a battle game (hierarchy) are displayed. Clear information of each battle game is also displayed on the game selection operation unit 33. Clear information is indicated by, for example, three stars. In a battle game, if you clear the battle game, you will get stars according to the number of ally characters whose life points are 0 when you clear it. For example, if there is no ally character with 0 life points, 3 stars will be earned, and if there is 1 ally character with 0 life points, 2 stars will be earned. , If there are two or more ally characters with 0 life points, one star will be acquired.

In the example of FIG. 3C, three stars are acquired in the battle game of "1-1", two stars are acquired in the battle game of "1-2", and one star is acquired in the battle game of "1-3". Has been acquired. Further, in the battle game of "1-4", no star has been acquired, and it is notified that this battle game has not been cleared.

As for the battle game, when one battle game is cleared, the next battle game is released. Therefore, in the example of FIG. 3C, the battle game of "1-4" is released by clearing the battle game of "1-3", but after that (after "1-5" (not shown)). ) Battle game is not open.

FIG. 4A is a diagram illustrating an example of a quest selection screen. FIG. 4B is a diagram illustrating an example of a party selection screen. FIG. 5A is a diagram illustrating an example of a battle screen. FIG. 5B is a diagram illustrating an example of a result screen.

On the quest screen, for example, when the game selection operation unit 33 of the battle game of "1-4" is tapped, the quest selection screen shown in FIG. 4A is displayed on the display 26. On the quest selection screen, enemy characters appearing in the battle game and items (rewards) that can be obtained in the battle game are displayed. In addition, on the quest selection screen, the challenge selection operation unit 34 marked as "challenge" for challenging the battle game, and the cancellation marked "cancel" for canceling the challenge to the battle game. The selection operation unit 35 is displayed.

When the cancel selection operation unit 35 is tapped, the quest screen shown in FIG. 3C is displayed on the display 26, and the challenge to the selected “1-4” battle game is canceled.

On the other hand, when the challenge selection operation unit 34 is tapped, the party selection screen shown in FIG. 4B is displayed on the display 26. On the party selection screen, all the ally characters possessed by the player are displayed, and the selected ally character display area 36 for displaying the selected ally character is displayed below.

When the player taps the displayed ally character on the party selection screen, the selected ally character is displayed in the selected ally character display area 36. That is, here, among the plurality of ally character IDs associated with the player ID, the ally character ID to be used in the battle game is selected.

Then, when the ally character (friend character ID) is selected and the start operation unit 37 is tapped, the battle game is started.

During the battle game, the battle screen is displayed on the display 26 as shown in FIG. 5A. On the battle screen, a friendly character and an enemy character are displayed. The ally character operates under computer control and damages the enemy character or receives damage from the enemy character. In addition, the enemy character operates under computer control and damages the ally character or receives damage from the ally character.

When damage points are given to an enemy character, the damage points are subtracted from the life points of the enemy character. Similarly, when damage points are given to a friendly character, the damage points are subtracted from the life points of the friendly character. When the life points of all enemy characters become 0 (clear), and when the life points of all ally characters become 0 (defeat), the player is defeated.

Here, as shown in FIG. 5A, a ally character display area 40 is provided at the bottom of the battle screen. In the ally character display area 40, the life point 40a and the special move gauge 40b for each ally character are displayed. Its Special Move Gauge 40b increases when a friendly character receives damage from an enemy character or damages an enemy character. Then, when the special move gauge 40b reaches a predetermined maximum value, the ally character can use the special move. Its Special Move has more damage points given to the enemy character than a normal attack.

Here, two patterns are provided for the method of using the special move. One is a method in which the player taps the ally character displayed in the ally character display area 40 when the special move gauge 40b reaches the maximum value. The other is a method in which a ally character uses a special move under computer control when the special move gauge 40b reaches the maximum value in the auto state. The auto selection operation unit 41 is displayed on the battle screen, and it is possible to switch between the auto state and the manual state according to the tap of the auto selection operation unit 41. When the auto selection operation unit 41 is tapped in the manual state, the special move is automatically used in the auto state. Further, in the auto state, when the auto selection operation unit 41 is tapped, it becomes a manual state in which the special move is manually used. Even in the auto state, if the player operates (tap) a ally character while the special move gauge 40b has reached the maximum value and the special move is not used by computer control, the special move is used. Is possible.

Then, when the battle game ends normally, the result screen is displayed on the display 26 as shown in FIG. 5B. FIG. 5B shows, as an example, a result screen when a friendly character wins. At least a part of the game result information of the battle game is displayed on the result screen, and the end operation unit 42 marked as "close" for closing the result screen is displayed.

In the game result information, the ally character ID (party) of the ally character, the enemy character ID of the enemy character, the remaining status of the ally character and the enemy character at the end of the battle (whether the life point is 0 at the end of the battle game). Whether or not), the damage points given (total value), the battle log ID, and the information associated with each battle game (clear information, battle game hierarchy, etc.) are included.

When the end operation unit 42 is tapped on the result screen, the display 26 is switched from the battle screen to the normal screen. That is, the result screen is a part of the battle screen. The normal screen that switches from the result screen may be the screen that was displayed immediately before switching to the battle screen, or may be a predetermined screen such as the home screen. In this way, the battle game ends when the display of the result screen ends.

FIG. 6A is a diagram showing an example of a gacha screen. FIG. 6B is a diagram showing an example of a gacha result screen. When the gacha screen selection operation unit 30d (see FIG. 3A) is tapped, the gacha screen shown in FIG. 6A is displayed. On the gacha screen, the one-time lottery operation unit 50a and the ten-series lottery operation unit 50b are displayed. In the following, the one-time lottery operation unit 50a and the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b are collectively referred to as the lottery operation unit 50. When the lottery operation unit 50 is tapped, a lottery (hereinafter, referred to as "reward lottery") for determining a ally character (reward) given to the player is executed.

When the lottery operation unit 50a is tapped once, the reward lottery is executed once. When the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped, the reward lottery is executed 10 times (hereinafter, referred to as "10-series reward lottery"). That is, in the 10-series reward lottery, 10 reward lottery is executed as one set. In the reward lottery, one of the characters is always decided. Therefore, the player can acquire 10 ally characters by 10 consecutive reward lottery. The result of the 10-series reward lottery, that is, the 10 ally characters given to the player are displayed on the lottery result screen as shown in FIG. 6B.

In the reward lottery, the winning probabilities of each of the plurality of types of ally characters are set in advance. Each ally character is roughly classified into three types, "S rare", "rare", and "general", depending on the winning probability. Here, the winning probability of "S rare" is the lowest, and the winning probability is higher in the order of "rare" and "general". Further, in the present embodiment, in the 1st to 9th reward lottery in the 10 consecutive reward lottery, the winning ratio of each ally character is set to be equal, and in the 10th reward lottery, the winning probability of "rare" is another reward. It is set higher than the lottery. However, in each of the 10 reward lottery, the winning ratio of each ally character may be the same, or all may be different.

When the one-time lottery operation unit 50a or the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped, the reward lottery is executed by consuming, for example, the in-game currency or the lottery item. In-game currency and lottery items can be acquired, for example, by purchasing, satisfying acquisition conditions by playing the game, and the like. Here, the player can purchase in-game currency at any time. Therefore, the player can execute the above reward lottery at any time by tapping the one-time lottery operation unit 50a or the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b.

Further, in the reward lottery, a ally character that the player has already acquired may be determined. In such a case, an item that can be used in the game is given in place of the ally character determined by the reward lottery.

FIG. 7A is a diagram illustrating a 10-series reward lottery within a specific period. FIG. 7B is a diagram illustrating a gacha screen for a specific period. FIG. 7C is a diagram illustrating a gacha screen when logging in for the first time in the middle of a specific period. In FIG. 7A, "○" indicates that the user has logged in, and "?" Indicates that the user has not logged in.

In the information processing system S, as a campaign, the right to execute a 10-series reward lottery is given when the player logs in to the game at regular intervals within a specific period. The right granted here is the right to execute a 10-game reward lottery without consuming in-game currency and lottery items (free of charge). In the following, the right to execute the 10-series reward lottery is simply referred to as "right".

As shown in FIG. 7A, when a predetermined 14 days (2 weeks) is set as a specific period and the player logs in as a fixed period, for example, every 1 day (for example, from 5:00 to 4:59 the next day). One right is granted. Therefore, as shown by pattern A in FIG. 7A, when the player logs in every day during the specific period, a total of 14 rights (right to execute a total of 140 reward lottery) are granted.

When the right is granted, when the gacha screen selection operation unit 30d is tapped, the gacha screen shown in FIG. 7B is displayed. On this gacha screen, a message marked "free" is displayed in the vicinity of the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b. As a result, the player is notified that the 10-series reward lottery can be executed free of charge. Then, when the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped, the 10-series reward lottery is executed without consuming the in-game currency and the lottery items (free of charge).

After the player logs in during the specific period and the right is granted, the granted right is extinguished after a certain period (4:59 the next day) without executing the 10-series reward lottery.

By the way, if the game is started in the middle of the specific period, there will be a day when the right is not granted from the start of the specific period to the start of the game. Also, even if the game is restarted (comeback) in the middle of a specific period, there will be days when the right is not granted. Then, if the right from the start of the specific period to the start of the game is not granted to the player at all (when there is a right at regular intervals that is not granted), the player feels a loss.

Therefore, as shown in pattern B of FIG. 7A, when logging in for the first time, for example, on the 6th day after the start of the specific period, in the present embodiment, the number of days (6) from the start of the specific period to the day of the first login. (Daily) rights are granted collectively. That is, in this example, when logging in for the first time, the right to execute the 10-series reward lottery is granted for 6 days at a time. In other words, the right to execute the 10-series reward lottery is granted 6 when logging in for the first time (the right to execute the 60-time reward lottery is granted).

In this case, when the gacha screen selection operation unit 30d is tapped, the gacha screen shown in FIG. 7C is displayed on the display 26. On this gacha screen, a message stating "6 times free" is displayed in the vicinity of the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b. As a result, the player is notified that the 10-series reward lottery can be executed 6 times free of charge. Then, when the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped, the first 10-series reward lottery is executed free of charge. After that, every time the 10-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped, the 10-series reward lottery is executed 5 times free of charge.

In this way, if you log in for the first time within a specific period, the rights that were not granted before that day (rights based on the number of days that have passed without being granted) will be granted collectively. As a result, even a player who started the game in the middle of the specific period can be given the same rights as the player who has been playing the game from the start of the specific period. As a result, it is possible to reduce giving a feeling of loss to the player who started the game in the middle of the specific period.

On the other hand, even if you have logged in once within a specific period, but have not logged in after that, the right of the day you have not logged in (the day when the right has not been granted) by logging in again after that. Will not be granted. For example, as shown in pattern C in FIG. 7A, it is assumed that the user is logged in from the first day to the third day, and one right is granted on each day. After that, I was not logged in from the 4th to the 8th day. In such a case, even if you log in on the 9th day, the rights that would have been granted if you logged in on the 4th to 8th days will not be granted, and the rights for the 9th day will not be granted. Only rights are granted. Therefore, in pattern C, even if you log in on all days after the 9th day, the right to execute the 10 consecutive reward lottery is granted only for 9 days (the right to execute the 90 times reward lottery is granted. Will be).

By doing so, it is possible to motivate the player to log in every day after logging in for the first time within a specific period, and to encourage the player to actively participate in the game.

FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an extension period. In the present embodiment, an extension period is provided after a specific period. The extension period is set to, for example, one month from the end of the specific period. If you have not logged in even once within the specific period, the first time you log in during the extension period, all the rights granted within the specific period will be granted. In other words, if you do not log in even once in a specific period and log in for the first time in the extended period, you will be granted 14 rights (14 days worth) to execute 10 consecutive reward lottery (right to execute 140 reward lottery). Is granted).

In this way, by providing an extension period after the specific period, all the rights granted within the specific period are granted to the player who starts the game after the end of the specific period by logging in to the extension period. The right. This makes it possible to prevent the player who starts the game after the end of the specific period from giving a feeling of loss.

Next, the communication processing of the player terminal 1 and the server 100 will be described. Here, an example of basic communication processing for advancing the game and main communication processing related to the reward lottery during a specific period will be described, and description of other processing will be omitted.

(Communication processing between player terminal 1 and server 100)
FIG. 9 is a sequence diagram illustrating basic processing of the player terminal 1 and the server 100. In the following description, the process in the player terminal 1 is referred to as Pn (n is an arbitrary integer). Further, the processing in the server 100 is indicated as Sn (n is an arbitrary integer). When the player starts the game application on the player terminal 1 (P1), the player terminal 1 transmits information indicating that the player logs in to the server 100. When the server 100 receives the information indicating login, the server 100 identifies the player ID associated with the information indicating login and performs the login management process (S1). Here, the server 100 makes the player terminal 1 able to download the player information corresponding to the specified player ID from the storage unit 118. The player information includes a plurality of ally character IDs associated with the player ID, game release information indicating whether or not the battle game in each type of battle game is released, player level, player stamina, and in-game. Includes currency and lottery items. In addition, during a specific period, a login management process relating to the right to execute a 10-series reward lottery is executed. The details of this login management process will be described later.

When the one-time lottery operation unit 50a or the ten-series lottery operation unit 50b is tapped on the gacha screen, the player terminal 1 servers the reward lottery request information (information indicating whether it is one reward lottery or ten-series reward lottery). It is transmitted to 100 (P2). When the server 100 receives the reward lottery request information, the server 100 performs a reward lottery execution process for executing the reward lottery based on the reward lottery request information (S2). The details of this reward lottery execution process will be described later. Then, the server 100 associates the ally character ID determined by the reward lottery with the player ID, and transmits the lottery result information indicating the lottery result of the reward lottery to the player terminal 1. Upon receiving the lottery result information, the player terminal 1 displays the gacha result screen shown in FIG. 6B on the display 26 (P3).

Further, it is assumed that the start operation of the battle game is performed on the player terminal 1 (P4). In this case, the start information is transmitted from the player terminal 1 to the server 100. The start information includes party information selected by the player, battle game type information, and the like. By inputting the start information, the server 100 transmits the battle game start information necessary for starting the battle game to the player terminal 1 (S3). Then, when the player terminal 1 receives the battle game start information, the player terminal 1 performs a battle game start process for starting the battle game (P5). Here, for example, an area of the memory 12 for advancing the battle game is secured, or a predetermined program is read from the storage unit 18 into the memory 12.

After that, the player terminal 1 performs a battle game control process for controlling the battle game (P6). In this battle game control process, the update process for updating various information is repeatedly executed in frame units. The number of frames is not particularly limited, and for example, the number of frames per second is 30 to 60. Therefore, during the battle game, the information is updated in the player terminal 1 at intervals of about 16 ms (milliseconds) to 33 ms.

Then, when the end condition of the battle game is satisfied, the battle game end process for ending the battle game is performed on the player terminal 1 (P7). In the battle game end process, for example, the result screen is displayed on the display 26, or the game result information is transmitted to the server 100. When the server 100 acquires the game result information, the server 100 updates the player information (S4).

(Functional configuration of server 100)
FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating the configuration of the memory 112 and the function as a computer in the server 100. Here, the configuration of the memory 112 for executing the login management process (S1) and the reward lottery execution process (S2) described above and the function as a computer will be described. The memory 112 is provided with a program storage area 112a and a data storage area 112b.

The program storage area 112a includes a login information management program 60, a rights granting program 61, and a reward lottery program 62. The programs listed in FIG. 10 are examples, and the server 100 is provided with many other programs.

The data storage area 112b is provided with a player information storage unit 70, a specific period information storage unit 71, and a specific period database 72 as storage units for storing data. Each of the above storage units is an example, and a large number of other storage units are provided in the data storage area 112b. The player information storage unit 70 stores player information for each player ID. In addition, in the specific period information storage unit 71, for each player ID, the type of campaign, the date and time when the user first logged in within the specific period, and the date and time when the 10-series reward lottery was last executed using the right (hereinafter, "final"). It is called "10 consecutive reward lottery date and time") and the number of rights granted is stored as specific period information. Further, in the specific period database 72, the type of campaign, the specific period, the extension period, and the right to be granted at regular intervals within the specific period are stored as a database.

The CPU 110 operates each program stored in the program storage area 112a to update the data in each storage unit in the data storage area 112b. Then, the CPU 110 causes the server 100 (computer) to function as the lottery control unit 100A by operating each program stored in the program storage area 112a. The lottery control unit 100A includes a login information management unit 60a, a right granting unit 61a, and a reward lottery unit 62a.

Specifically, the CPU 110 operates the login information management program 60 to make the computer function as the login information management unit 60a. Similarly, the CPU 110 operates the right granting program 61 and the reward lottery program 62, and functions as the right granting unit 61a and the reward lottery unit 62a, respectively.

The login information management unit 60a manages the login of the player. Specifically, when the login information management unit 60a transmits information indicating login from the player terminal 1, the specific period information storage unit 71 uses the date and time of the first login during the specific period or the extension period as login information. Remember in.

The right granting unit 61a grants the player the right to execute the 10-series reward lottery when the player logs in within a specific period. In addition, the right granting unit 61a stores the number of rights currently held (the maximum number of reward lottery that can be executed free of charge) in the information storage unit 71 for a specific period.

The reward lottery unit 62a executes the reward lottery based on the reward lottery request information transmitted from the player terminal 1. Then, the reward lottery unit 62a stores the ally character ID of the ally character determined by the reward lottery in the player information storage unit 70 in association with the player ID. Further, when the reward lottery unit 62a executes the 10-series reward lottery using the rights, the reward lottery unit 62a subtracts the number of rights stored in the specific period information storage unit 71 by the amount of the used rights.

(Specific processing of server 100)
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of login management processing in the server 100. When the login management process shown in FIG. 11 is started, the login information management unit 60a refers to the specific period database 72 and determines whether or not it is in the specific period (S1-1). Then, during the specific period (YES in S1-1), the login information management unit 60a refers to the specific period information storage unit 71 associated with the player ID of the logged-in player, and the final 10 consecutive reward lottery date and time. Is today (between 5:00 including the current time and 4:59 the next day) (S1-2).

If the final 10 consecutive reward lottery date and time is today (YES in S1-2), the right granted today is used, so the right granting unit 61a processes S1-8 without granting a new right. Move on to.

On the other hand, if the final 10 consecutive reward lottery date and time is not today (NO in S1-2), the right granting unit 61a stores the login information in the specific period information storage unit 71 associated with the player ID of the logged-in player. Is determined (S1-3).

When the login information is stored (YES in S1-3), the rights granting unit 61a grants the rights for today (S1-4). Specifically, the right granting unit 61a stores the maximum number (once) of the 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge in the specific period information storage unit 71. In addition, the right granting unit 61a transmits information indicating the maximum number (once) of the 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge to the player terminal 1. Even if you log in multiple times on the same day within a specific period, the rights granting unit 61a will set the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery (1 time) that can be executed free of charge when you log in for the first time for a specific period. It is stored in the information storage unit 71, and is not stored when logging in after that. Further, here, instead of storing the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge (1 time) in the information storage unit 71 for a specific period, the maximum number of reward lottery that can be executed free of charge (10 times) is stored. It may be stored in the information storage unit 71 for a specific period.

If the login information is not stored (NO in S1-3), the login information management unit 60a uses the date and time when the player logged in as login information in the specific period information storage unit 71 associated with the player ID of the logged-in player. Remember (S1-5).

The rights granting unit 61a subtracts (takes a difference) the start date and time of the specific period shown in the specific period database 72 from the date and time of the first login within the specific period shown in the login information, so that the right can be granted during the specific period. The number of days not granted is derived (S1-6). Then, the right granting unit 61a grants the rights for the derived date and time (S1-7). Specifically, the rights granting unit 61a transfers the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge (for example, 6 times in the case of the 6th day of pattern B in FIG. 7A) to the specific period information storage unit 71. Remember. In addition, the right granting unit 61a transmits information indicating the maximum number (6 times) of the 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge to the player terminal 1.

The login information management unit 60a refers to the specific period database 72 and determines whether or not the extension period is in progress (S1-8). If it is during the extension period (YES in S1-8), the login information management unit 60a determines whether the login information is stored in the specific period information storage unit 71 associated with the player ID of the logged-in player (S1). -9). If the login information is not stored (NO in S1-9), the login information management unit 60a uses the date and time when the player logged in as the login information, and the specific period information storage unit associated with the player ID of the logged-in player. Store in 71 (S1-10). In addition, the right granting unit 61a grants the rights for all the days within the specific period (S1-11). Specifically, the right granting unit 61a stores the maximum number (14 times) of the 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge in the information storage unit 71 for a specific period. Further, the right granting unit 61a transmits information indicating the maximum number (14 times) of the 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge to the player terminal 1. After the player logs in during the specific period and the right is granted, if a certain period (4:59 the next day) elapses without executing the 10-series reward lottery, when a new login is made, in S1-10. Since a new upper limit number is stored in the specific period information storage unit 71, the right for a certain period of time has expired without executing the 10-series reward lottery.

FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the reward lottery process on the server 100. When the reward lottery process shown in FIG. 12 is started, the reward lottery unit 62a determines whether to execute one reward lottery based on the reward lottery request information transmitted from the player terminal 1 (S2-1). Then, when executing one reward lottery (YES in S2-1), the reward lottery unit 62a consumes the in-game currency and lottery items stored in the player information storage unit 70, and one reward lottery is performed. Is executed (S2-2). The reward lottery unit 62a stores the ally character ID of the ally character determined by the reward lottery in the player information storage unit 70 in association with the player ID.

Further, the reward lottery unit 62a determines whether to execute the 10-series reward lottery based on the reward lottery request information transmitted from the player terminal 1 (S2-3). Then, when executing the 10-series reward lottery (YES in S2-3), the reward lottery unit 62a has a maximum number of reward lottery stored in the specific period information storage unit 71 that can be executed free of charge other than 0, that is, It is determined whether the right is granted (S2-4). Then, when the right is granted (YES in S2-4), the reward lottery unit 62a subtracts 1 from the upper limit of the 10 consecutive reward lottery stored in the information storage unit 71 for a specific period and can be executed free of charge. Update (S2-5) and execute 10 consecutive reward lottery (S2-7). The reward lottery unit 62a stores the ally character ID of the ally character determined by the reward lottery in the player information storage unit 70 in association with the player ID.

On the other hand, when the right is not granted (NO in S2-4), the reward lottery unit 62a consumes the in-game currency and lottery items stored in the player information storage unit 70 (S2-6), and 10 consecutive games. Execute the reward lottery (S2-7).

As described above, the server 100 is provided with the login information management program 60, the right granting program 61, and the reward lottery program 62. Further, the server 100 includes a login information management unit 60a, a right granting unit 61a, and a reward lottery unit 62a. However, a part or all of these programs and functional parts may be provided in the player terminal 1.

Further, in the above embodiment, when logging in for the first time within a specific period, the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge is stored in the specific period information storage unit 71. However, every time a certain period (1 day) elapses within a specific period, the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge may be updated. For example, every time a certain period (1 day) elapses, the maximum number of 10 consecutive reward lottery that can be executed free of charge may be increased by one.

Further, in the above embodiment, if there is a day when the user has not logged in after logging in once within a specific period, the right of the day when the user has not logged in is not granted even if the user logs in again after that. However, if you log in again after there is a day you are not logged in, you may grant the right to the day you are not logged in.

Further, in the above embodiment, the date and time of the first login within the specific period is stored as login information, and the start date and time of the specific period shown in the specific period database 72 is subtracted from the date and time of the first login within the specific period. The number of days for which rights have not been granted during a specific period is now derived. However, by storing the time such as the date of the first login within the specific period as login information and subtracting the start time of the specific period shown in the specific period database 72 from the time of the first login within the specific period, the specific period The number of days for which the right is not granted may be derived.

Further, in the above embodiment, when the user does not log in even once in the specific period and logs in for the first time in the extended period, all the rights granted within the specific period are granted. However, if you do not log in even once in the specific period and log in for the first time in the extended period, you may grant a part of the rights granted within the specific period.

Further, in the above embodiment, the right to execute a 10-series reward lottery is granted when logging in at regular intervals within a specific period. However, the right granted when logging in is not limited to this, and may be, for example, in-game currency, lottery items, or the like.

Although one aspect of the embodiment has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. It is clear that a person skilled in the art can come up with various modifications or modifications within the scope of the claims, and it is understood that these also naturally belong to the technical scope of the present invention. Will be done.

The present invention can be used in information processing programs, information processing methods and information processing systems.
