[Description of lottery elements]
FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining an outline of the lottery element in the present embodiment.
The lottery element is appropriately implemented at a timing such as before the game starts, during the game, or after the game ends. For example, a login lottery performed when a player logs in, a lottery executed by consuming virtual currency, a drop item lottery for drawing an item dropped by an enemy character, a treasure box lottery for determining the contents of a treasure chest, a reward for clearing the game stage The clear bonus lottery for determining the game level, the level up bonus lottery when the player level is improved, the results bonus lottery for determining the reward according to the game results, and the like.

  The lottery element according to the present embodiment can continuously execute the next lottery element when a predetermined continue execution operation input (continuous execution operation input) is detected after the lottery element is executed. This is called “Lottery Continue”. In the lottery element of the present embodiment, a continue bonus for prompting the continuation of the lottery can be given to the player.

  Specifically, the lottery element of the present embodiment includes a main lottery for determining a grant object to be given to a player from a plurality of choices, and a sub lot for determining the contents of a continue bonus from a plurality of choices. Including lottery. The main lottery and the sub lottery (more specifically, the result notification of the sub lottery and the sub lottery) are sequentially executed in sequence as one lottery element is executed.

  The main lottery 10 of the present embodiment draws characters (rabbit characters) that can be used as player characters. Options for the main lottery 10, ie, lottery candidates, include a rare character 4 (4a, 4b, 4c...) And a normal character 5 (5a, 5b, 5c,...) That is not rare. From the player's point of view, the rare character 4 is an object that satisfies the excellent condition as a result of the main lottery 10, so-called “winning” and “excellent object”. On the other hand, as a result of the main lottery 10, the normal character 5 corresponds to a “non-excellent object” that is “out” that does not satisfy the excellent condition.

  Then, a plurality of types of lottery sets 6 (6a, 6b, 6c,...; Lottery settings) are prepared by combining any one rare character 4 and many other normal characters 5 as options. In the main lottery 10, one of the lottery sets 6 is selected as a lottery base, and one of the lottery candidates of the selected lottery set 6 is selected. Of course, the contents of the lottery candidates in the main lottery 10 at that time are not disclosed to the player.

  The sub lottery of the present embodiment is executed when the lottery result of the main lottery 10 is the normal character 5, that is, when the lottery result does not satisfy the predetermined excellent condition. And in this embodiment, two sub lotteries, the probability variation lottery 12 and the hint provision lottery 14, are included.

  The probability variation lottery 12 determines the degree to which the probability that the rare character 4 selected in the previous main lottery 10 is selected in the next main lottery 10 (winning probability) is improved by lottery. The result of the probability variation lottery 12 is notified to the player and reflected in the next main lottery 10 executed when the lottery is continued. That is, the lottery setting in the main lottery after the next time is changed.

As a method of the probability variation lottery 12, for example, a random lottery method can be considered by appropriately setting several types of probability change degrees as the lottery outcome. For example, “0% up”, “3% up”, “5% up”, “10% up”, etc.
As another method of probability variation lottery 12, for example, only the presence or absence of probability change is randomly drawn, and when the probability change is won, the probability change degree is determined using a predetermined function according to the game progress status at that time. It is good.

  The latter is adopted in the probability variation lottery 12 of the present embodiment. More specifically, for example, a post-change winning probability calculation function f is used as shown in FIG. The post-change winning probability calculation function f uses the main lottery execution count of the lottery up to now and the parameter value describing the game progress as variables, and the winning after the change in the predetermined number of times the main lottery execution count N is 10 or less. The probability is set to be 100%.

The parameter value describing the game progress status as a variable of the changed winning probability calculation function f can be appropriately set in consideration of the game content. For example, the player level, the degree of progress of a game stage that has been played, the charging frequency, the rarity of the rare character 4 included in the lottery set, and the like can be used.
More specifically, it is preferable that the higher the player level and the higher the billing frequency, the larger the main lottery execution number N at which the winning probability after change is 100% increases. Further, when the rareness of the rare character 4 included in the lottery set is used as a variable, it is preferable that the main lottery execution count N at which the winning probability after change becomes 100% increases as the rarity increases.

  Note that the relationship between the changed winning probability and the main lottery execution count N is not limited to a direct proportional relationship as shown in the figure, and may be an exponential or inversely proportional relationship.

Returning to FIG. 3, the hint giving lottery 14 is a lottery for selecting a content for teaching a player a hint for guessing the rare character 4 in the main lottery 10.
The outcome in the hint giving lottery 14 can be appropriately set as long as it teaches the contents of the lottery setting related to the main lottery after the next time. For example, “No teaching”, “Teach only silhouette”, “Teach character name”, “Teach ability value of rare character 4”, “Teach skill of rare character 4”, “Teach voice about rare character 4” and “No teaching” "Combination of teaching contents excluding""is possible. In addition, the teaching level difference can be appropriately included in one option. For example, even if “Teach only silhouette”, “Teach silhouette with 100% hidden”, “Teach silhouette with 70% hidden”, “Teach silhouette with 50% hidden”, etc. May be provided. Then, the result of the hint giving lottery 14 is provided to the player as information for determining whether or not to continue.

  Note that the selection probabilities for each teaching level may be selected at random, assuming that they are equal. Alternatively, the selection probability for each teaching level may be varied according to the game progress status. Specifically, it is preferable to select a silhouette with a low hidden ratio as the player level and the game result are lower. In the case of ability teaching, it is preferable that a teaching level with a larger number of teachings is selected as the player level or game result is lower. In addition, in the configuration in which the play history and the charge history are managed for each player, the selection probability of the teaching level may be changed according to the play frequency, the charge frequency, the accumulated charge amount, and the like.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a screen example of a lottery element, and illustrates a screen example in the case where payment of a price is required for the lottery execution. When the activation of the lottery element is detected, a payment confirmation screen W2 is displayed on the touch panel 1506 of the player terminal 1500. The screen includes a lottery description 20, a treasure box 22, a payment execution operation icon 24, and a cancel operation icon 26.

  The treasure box 22 is a production for notifying the result of the main lottery 10. When an operation input to the payment execution operation icon 24 is detected on the payment confirmation screen W2, a predetermined consideration payment is executed, the main lottery 10 is executed, and the main lottery result screen is displayed.

  When the rare character 4 is selected in the main lottery 10, for example, a main lottery result screen W3 as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed. That is, the result explanation 34 is displayed together with the character image 32 of the rare character 4.

  On the other hand, when the normal character 5 is selected in the main lottery 10, for example, a main lottery result screen W3 as shown in FIG. 7 is displayed.

Note that the result of the main lottery may not be simply displayed, but a dramatic notice effect may be inserted, and the result display of FIGS. 6 and 7 may be displayed following the notice effect.
For example, when an operation input to the payment execution operation icon 24 is detected and the main lottery 10 is executed, the result of the main lottery 10 is a rare character 4 and a normal character 5 as shown in FIG. After changing the display form of the treasure chest 22 (for example, outline, color scheme, blinking pattern, presence / absence of additional effect, etc.), the screen is switched to the screen of FIG. 6 or FIG. Or, for example, a fighting type effect, that is, a character that is the result of the main lottery 10 and an existing player character are battled, and if the latter wins, the former can be obtained, or the result of the main lottery 10 The silhouette of the acquired character may appear and the notice effect may be realized in the display form.

  Further, when a lottery that does not require a lottery consideration is adopted as the main lottery 10, for example, if it is a drop lottery when an enemy character is defeated during a game, the silhouette of the object to be dropped, the feature of the outline, the effect display It is also possible to give a notice effect by adding a sound, or to give a notice effect by the type of sound effect at the time of drop.

  When the normal character 5 is selected in the main lottery 10, the main lottery result screen W3 (FIG. 7) serves as both the continue operation screen, the result notification screen of the probability variation lottery 12, and the result notification screen of the hint addition lottery 14. ing. Specifically, the character image 32 of the normal character 5 as a result of the main lottery 10 and the result explanation 34 are displayed, the continue execution operation icon 42, the continue acceptance deadline display 43, and the sub lottery result notification unit. 44.

  The sub lottery result notification unit 44 displays a probability variation lottery result display body 45 and an information display body 46 (46a, 46b, 46c,...). In the example of FIG. 7, the result of the hint giving lottery 14 corresponds to “100% silhouette + one ability + one instruction for voice”, and a silhouette 46a, an ability display 46b, an audio reproduction operation icon 46c, Is displayed. The silhouette 46a represents the silhouette of the rare character 4 included in the lottery set used in the main lottery 10 this time. The ability display body 46b is a display body for notifying the ability parameter value of the rare character 4 included in the lottery set used in the current main lottery 10. When the icon is touched, the sound reproduction operation icon 46c reproduces the sound related to the rare character 4 included in the lottery set used in the main lottery 10 this time.

  The player will know that he / she has missed the main lottery 10 by looking at the main lottery result screen W3. However, the displayed content is not only unfortunate for the player. That is, the type of the rare character 4 included in the lottery set used in the current main lottery 10 can be estimated from the information display body 46 of the sub lottery result notification unit 44. Further, by looking at the probability variation lottery result display body 45, it is possible to know that if the lottery is continued, the possibility that the estimated rare character 4 can be acquired becomes higher.

  Therefore, if the rare character 4 to be inferred is inevitably desired, a lottery continuation in which the next winning probability of the rare character 4 is high will be an opportunity for the player. In other words, an invitation effect to continue the lottery can be expected.

  Further, if only the soliciting effect is focused on, it seems that only the game provider side will benefit, but the result of the probability variation lottery 12 is reflected in the next main lottery 10 is a very advantageous development for the player. That is, the winning probability approaches 100% each time the continuation is repeated, and therefore, the desired rare character 4 can be obtained more efficiently than the continuation without repeating the lottery.

One play data 700 includes, for example, a player ID 701, a lottery payment parameter value 703, and lottery control data 710 as shown in FIG. Of course, other data (for example, player character status data describing the state of the player character, enemy character status data describing the state of the enemy character, control data of the virtual camera, timer counter, etc.) may be included as appropriate. it can.

The lottery control data 710 stores various data relating to the control of lottery elements.
For example, a use lottery set ID 711, a main lottery probability table 712, a main lottery result 713 storing a lottery candidate ID selected by the main lottery, a main lottery execution count 714, a probability variation lottery result 715, and a hint-giving lottery The result 716 and the continuation acceptance deadline 717 are stored. Of course, other data can be stored as appropriate.

  The used lottery set ID 711 indicates which set of a plurality of types of lottery sets 6 defined in the lottery set definition data 530 (see FIG. 10) is used for the main lottery.

  The main lottery probability table 712 stores a winning probability for each lottery candidate of the main lottery, for example, as shown in FIG. The initial state is copied from the initial winning probability table 533 (see FIG. 11) of the lottery set definition data 530 having the lottery set ID 531 that matches the lottery set ID 711 used. Then, the winning probability is changed according to the probability change degree selected by the probability variation lottery of the lottery set.

  Returning to FIG. 12, the main lottery execution count 714 stores the number of lottery elements executed continuously (continue count), more specifically, the number of executions of the main lottery. The initial value is “1”. Each time a continue execution operation is detected, “1” is added.

  The probability variation lottery result 715 stores the result of the probability variation lottery. In the present embodiment, data specifying how much the winning probability of the rare character 4 in the main lottery is increased, specifically, “0” or a value of% to be added is stored. If the probability variation lottery result 715 is “0”, it means that the winning probability of the rare character 4 in the next main lottery is not substantially changed (becomes the initial state).

The hint giving lottery result 716 stores the result of the hint giving lottery.
In the present embodiment, a teaching level 716b indicating how much information of this type is taught is stored in association with the teaching information type 716a. Specifically, the ratio of the silhouette covering the rare character 4 is stored in the teaching level 716 b whose teaching information type 716 a is “silhouette”. In the teaching level 716b where the teaching information type 716a is “ability value”, a value indicating how many types of capability parameter values are to be taught is stored. In the teaching level 716b where the teaching information type 716a is "speech", a value indicating how many types of audio data are to be taught (in this case, audio output is stored) is stored.

[Description of operation]
Next, the operation of the server system 1100 will be described.
14 to 15 are flowcharts for explaining the flow of processing relating to the lottery element in the server system 1100. The processing flow described here is executed each time the server system 1100 executes the server program 502 and activates the lottery element at the start of the game, during the game, or at the end of the game.

  As shown in FIG. 14, first, the server system 1100 refers to the selectable lottery set ID list 518 of the lottery element definition data 512 (see FIG. 10) of the lottery element to be executed this time. A lottery set ID is selected and set to a used lottery set ID 711 (see FIG. 12) in the lottery control data 710 (step S2).

  Next, the server system 1100 initializes the main lottery probability table 712 (step S4). That is, the initial winning probability table 533 (see FIG. 11) of the lottery set definition data 530 to which the used lottery set ID 711 matches is copied to the main lottery probability table 712 (see FIG. 12).

  Next, the server system 1100 refers to the lottery consideration 515 of the lottery element definition data 512 (see FIG. 10) of the lottery element executed this time. If a value other than “0” is set in the lottery consideration 515, it is determined that the lottery element to be executed this time requires payment (YES in step S12), and the payment confirmation screen W2 (see FIG. 5). ) Is displayed on the player terminal 1500 (step S14).

  If a payment execution operation is input on the payment confirmation screen W2 (YES in step S16), the server system 1100 executes a lottery consideration payment process (step S18). In the present embodiment, the lottery consideration parameter value 703 (see FIG. 12) is subtracted by the value indicated by the lottery consideration 515 of the lottery element to be executed this time.

  Next, the server system 1100 executes a main lottery process based on a probability calculation using the winning probability stored in the main lottery probability table 712, and stores the lottery result in the main lottery result 713 (step S32). Then, the notice effect display is executed with reference to the main lottery result 713 (step S34).

  Next, the server system 1100 notifies the player of the main lottery result, and gives the character of the main lottery result to the player (step S36). In the present embodiment, the main lottery result screen W3 is displayed on the touch panel 1506 of the player terminal 1500, and the character image 32 and the result explanation 34 that are the main lottery results are displayed (see FIGS. 6 and 7).

Here, it is determined whether the main lottery result satisfies a predetermined excellent condition (step S50). In this embodiment, if the main lottery result is a rare character 4, it is determined to be affirmative, and if it is a normal character 5, it is determined to be negative.
If the excellent condition is satisfied (YES in step S50), the selected rare character 4 is given to the player and the lottery process is terminated. If the excellent condition is not satisfied (NO in step S50), The server system 1100 executes a sub lottery process for determining a continue bonus.

  In this embodiment, first, a probable variation lottery is executed as the first sub lottery (step S56), and the lottery result is stored in the probable variation lottery result 715. Then, the main lottery probability table 712 (see FIG. 13) is changed according to the lottery result (step S58).

  Moving to FIG. 15, the server system 1100 further executes a hint giving lottery as the second sub lottery (step S60), and stores the lottery result in the hint giving lottery result 716. Then, the server system 1100 displays the probability variation lottery result 715 and the hint assignment lottery result 716 on the sub lottery result notification unit 44 of the main lottery result screen W3 (step S62; see FIG. 7).

  Next, the server system 1100 sets a continuation acceptance deadline (step S64), and starts accepting lottery continuations (step S66). On the main lottery result screen W3, a continuation execution operation icon 42 and a continuation acceptance time limit display 43 are displayed (see FIG. 7).

  If the continue execution operation is input within the acceptance deadline (YES in step S68), the server system 1100 determines that the continue condition is satisfied, and adds “1” to the main lottery execution count 714 (step 1). S70), the process returns to step S12. If the continue execution operation is not input within the acceptance deadline (NO in step S68), the lottery process is terminated.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, a new technique useful for a game including a lottery element can be provided. That is, a single lottery process including a main lottery for selecting a lottery element to be given to a player and a sub lottery for determining a continuation bonus can be executed by executing the lottery element once.

  In particular, the sub lottery is executed when the result of the main lottery does not satisfy the excellent condition, that is, when the result of the current lottery element corresponds to “disappear” for the player, and the result (contents of the continuation bonus) is selected by lottery. It can be presented to the player along with accepting the operation of continuous execution of elements. Therefore, it is possible to invite the player to continue the lottery.

  The continue bonus includes an improvement in the winning probability of the rare character 4, and it is also changed so that the winning probability increases as the number of main lottery executions increases. Become.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described. This embodiment is basically realized in the same manner as the first embodiment, but the handling of the main lottery is different. Hereinafter, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment are given to the same components as those in the first embodiment, and differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described.

The system configuration of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment.
The functional configuration of the server system 1100 is the same as that of the first embodiment. However, after executing the main lottery process, the main lottery processing unit 214 of the present embodiment reduces the winning characters (objects) from the lottery candidates and sets them as the lottery candidates for the next main lottery process. Further, when changing the winning probability of the rare character 4 (excellent object), the sub lottery processing unit 220 can update the lottery candidate by adding at least a new excellent object to the lottery candidate.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the lottery set definition data 530B in the present embodiment. In the lottery set definition data 530 of the first embodiment, the initial winning probability for each lottery candidate of the main lottery is defined in the initial winning probability table 533 (see FIG. 11), but the lottery set definition data 530B of the present embodiment. In the initial set content data 535, the number of lottery candidates included in the lottery set is defined.

FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of play data 700 in the present embodiment.
The lottery control data 710 of the play data 700 of this embodiment includes use lottery set management data 720 instead of omitting the main lottery probability table 712.

  The used lottery set management data 720 stores data describing the latest state of the lottery set indicated by the used lottery set ID 711. For example, as shown in FIG. 18, the used lottery set management data 720 stores the remaining number 722 in association with each lottery candidate 721. In the remaining number 722, the initial content number of the initial set content data 535 (see FIG. 16) of the lottery set indicated by the used lottery set ID 711 is copied as an initial value. Each time the main lottery is executed, the remaining number 722 of the lottery candidates 721 that are the results of the main lottery (winning) is reduced by “1”. In other words, the main lottery of the present embodiment corresponds to the fact that each lottery candidate 721 becomes a lottery and draws from the lottery box, and the used lottery set management data 720 manages the contents of the lottery box. It is equivalent to being.

  19 to 20 are flowcharts for explaining the flow of the lottery process in the present embodiment. Basically, it has the same flow as the lottery process of the first embodiment, but after step S34, the server system 1100 performs an update process of the used lottery set management data 720 (step S35). That is, as a result of the main lottery executed in step S32, the remaining number 722 of the winning lottery candidates 721 is reduced by “1”.

Moreover, it changes to step S58 of 1st Embodiment, and the use lottery set management data 720 is changed according to the result of a probability change lottery (step S57).
Several methods can be considered for changing the use lottery set management data 720. In the present embodiment, the remaining number 722 of the rare character 4 (excellent object satisfying the excellent condition in the lottery set) is added so as to realize the result of the probability variation lottery (for example, the winning probability of the rare character 4 is increased by 3%). (That is, equivalent to adding a new rare character 4), the remaining number 722 of the rare character 4 may be subtracted from the remaining number 722 of the normal character 5. Both the addition of the remaining number 722 of the rare character 4 and the subtraction of the remaining number 722 of the normal character 5 may be performed.

  Alternatively, a lottery set definition data 530B having a high winning probability of the rare character 4 is selected from a plurality of types of lottery set definition data 530B (see FIG. 16), and lottery candidates and initials of the initial set content data 535 of the lottery set are selected. By adding the number of contents to the use lottery set management data 720 (see FIG. 18), the winning probability of the rare character 4 may be improved.

[Modification]
As mentioned above, although an example of the embodiment to which the present invention is applied has been described, the form to which the present invention can be applied is not limited to the above form, and additions, omissions, and changes of components can be appropriately made.

[Part 1]
For example, in the above embodiment, the game genre is RPG as an example, but the game genre is not limited to this and can be set as appropriate as long as the game includes a lottery element. For example, the present invention can be applied to a puzzle game, a tactical simulation game, a shooting game, a love game, a training game, a race game, a puzzle game, an action game, a music game, a sports game, and the like.

[Part 2]
In the above embodiment, the sub lottery is executed when the result of the main lottery does not satisfy the excellent condition (when the winning character is not the rare character 4). However, the sub lottery is executed even when the excellent condition is satisfied. However, a configuration for accepting continuation is also possible. Specifically, based on the first embodiment, step S50 may be omitted (see FIG. 14). Similar omissions can be applied to the second embodiment.

[Part 3]
In the above-described embodiment, the sub lottery is configured to execute the probability variation lottery and the hint giving lottery, but a configuration in which any one of them is omitted is also possible. Further, the sub lottery processing unit 220 may perform a lottery and execute either 1) only the probability lottery, 2) only the hint giving lottery, or 3) both the probability lottery and the hint giving lottery. It is.
If it shows concretely based on 1st Embodiment, it will come to show, for example in FIGS. 21-22. That is, prior to step S56, a lottery is executed to select a continuation bonus category from probability change only, hint assignment only, probability change and hint assignment (step S52), If the result is only a probability change (probability change in step S54), steps S56 to S58 are executed, and if only a hint is given (hint in step S54), step S60 is executed. And if it is both a probability change and hint provision (probability change + hint of step S54), it is good also as a structure which performs step S61a-S61c (substantially step S56-S58 and step S60). The configuration can be similarly applied to the second embodiment.

[Part 4]
Further, although the online game is exemplified in the above embodiment, the present invention can be similarly applied to a game executed by the player terminal 1500 in a stand-alone manner. In this case, basically, the functional configuration shown in FIG. 8 may be read as that realized by the player terminal 1500.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 23, the player terminal 1500 includes an operation input unit 100, a processing unit 200, a sound output unit 390, an image display unit 392, a communication unit 394, and a storage unit 500. Prepare.

  The operation input unit 100 of the player terminal 1500 corresponds to the direction input key 1502, the button switch 1504, and the touch panel 1506 (see FIG. 2). The control board 1550 corresponds to the processing unit 200. The processing unit 200 of the player terminal 1500 includes a sound generation unit 290.

  The sound generation unit 290 is realized by, for example, a digital signal processor (DSP), a processor such as a voice synthesis IC, an audio codec that can reproduce a voice file, and the voice of the character related to the game based on the processing result by the game management unit 210. In addition, sound signals of sound effects, BGM, and various operation sounds are generated and output to the sound output unit 390. In the present embodiment, this is realized by the control board 1550 of the player terminal 1500. Note that the transmission of the audio signal from the sound generation unit 290 to the sound output unit 390 may be either wired or wireless.

  The sound output unit 390 is realized by a device that outputs play music, sound effects, BGM, and the like based on the sound signal input from the sound generation unit 290. In the present embodiment, this corresponds to the speaker 1510 in FIG.

  The touch panel 1506 corresponds to the image display unit 392 of the player terminal 1500. The communication unit 394 corresponds to the wireless communication module 1553. The storage unit 500 corresponds to the IC memory 1552 of the control board 1550.

[Part 5]
Further, the content of the main lottery is not limited to the example of the above embodiment, and can be changed as appropriate. For example, in addition to the addition of an object such as a character, a prize value (added value) to a parameter value possessed by the player can be included in the lottery candidates. For example, a plurality of selection candidates with different addition values including an addition value = 0 meaning not to be added can be included in the lottery candidates. As parameter values possessed by the player, for example, not only parameter values that can be used as lottery consideration, but also player character skills, player character ability parameter values, in-game currency, free lottery rights, and the like can be set. it can.

  Alternatively, the main lottery may be executed for each different element category by executing the lottery element once. For example, the main lottery processing unit 214 of the above embodiment is configured to include a first main lottery that selects an object to be given to a player by executing a lottery element once, and a second main lottery that selects a prize value. it can. Furthermore, it can also comprise so that the 3rd or subsequent main lottery may be included.

[Part 6]
Moreover, in the said embodiment and modification, the structure which determines whether the sub lottery is performed based on the log | history of a main lottery is also possible.

  Specifically, based on the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 24, the play data 700 is provided with main lottery history data 722 for storing the results of the main lottery in time series, as shown in FIG. In addition, step S33 is executed instead of step S32. That is, the main lottery process is executed and the main lottery history data 722 is updated. Then, step S51 is executed instead of step S50. That is, it is determined whether the history of the main lottery satisfies the sub lottery execution condition, and if so, the process proceeds to step S56.

  The “sub lottery execution condition” referred to here can be set as appropriate. For example, the ratio of the number m of times that the character satisfying the excellent condition has been given in the last n times (n is an integer of 2 or more).
