Description

The present invention relates to a game system and its program.

In recent years, there is a puzzle game as a popular game genre. For example, a puzzle game in which characters are freely combined to form a deck and the characters forming the deck fight against an enemy is known. This game is popular because you can enjoy two elements at the same time: an RPG (role-playing game) -style battle game and a puzzle game that make the deck look like a party.

Further, recently, a technique for adding a new game property has been disclosed in a game in which such a puzzle game and a game in which a game progresses according to the situation of a puzzle game such as a battle game are executed in parallel. Some of them have appeared (for example, Patent Document 1).

JP 2015-8941

However, in the game system described in Patent Document 1 and the like, basically, actions such as attacks in the battle game become more sophisticated, complicated and powerful in proportion to the number of specified puzzle objects. The freshness has faded, and it is becoming necessary to devise a game in order for players to enjoy it for a long time.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to specify a puzzle in a player by cyclically changing each action in a battle game based on the number of puzzle objects. The purpose is to provide a game system or the like that can improve the fun of the game by giving a strategy to the operation of.

(1) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention
It is a program for accepting a slide operation input to a touch panel having a given screen and controlling a battle game using a puzzle game based on the received slide operation input.
The first detection process for detecting the first change from the state in which the touch operation is not input to the screen to the state in which the touch operation is input is performed, and the first detection process is performed after the first change is detected. A second detection process for detecting a second change to a state in which the touch operation input to the screen is not input when the touch operation input when the change in is detected is continued and the slide operation input is executed. Touch operation input detection processing means,
Based on the slide operation input from the first change to the second change, a predetermined number of identical puzzle objects displayed in a matrix on the screen are connected and arranged. When a puzzle object having an attribute is specified, a determination means for determining an action type indicating a given action type to be activated against an enemy character of the player character in the battle game, and a determination means for determining the action type.
A control means for controlling the battle game based on the action of the determined action type,
Make your computer work as
The determination means
From the action group in which a plurality of actions different in at least one of the action type and the effect of the activation are defined, the puzzle objects having the same attribute are specified in a given order according to the specified number of objects. It has a structure in which the action type is determined by circulating the determination order.

With this configuration, the present invention cyclically changes the behavior of the player character against the enemy character, such as hitting, magic, or recovery, depending on the number of objects with the same attributes specified from the puzzle objects arranged in a matrix. Therefore, it is possible to have the player specify a predetermined number of puzzle objects rather than having the player specify a large number of objects.

Therefore, the present invention can have a strategy of how a desired number of puzzle objects can be specified for the operation when specifying a puzzle in the player, so that the puzzle objects are simply specified. It is possible to improve the fun of the game as compared with the case or the case where many of them are specified.

In addition, "touch operation input" and "slide operation input" are
(1) Direct touch operation or slide operation on the touch panel with the user's finger,
(2) Indirect touch operation or slide operation on the touch panel executed via a device such as a pointing device, and
(3) Recognize by detecting a pseudo operation (including contact and non-contact) on the touch panel without detecting the operation input by directly and indirectly touching or sliding the touch panel. Touch operation or slide operation,
Is also included.

In particular, the pseudo touch operation or slide operation is, for example,
(3A) A plurality of irradiation units formed at one end of the touch panel at regular intervals in the vertical and horizontal directions by irradiating a light beam such as infrared rays parallel to the touch panel surface at a position close to the touch panel surface, and each irradiation unit. A pair is formed, and a plurality of sensors provided at the other end of the touch panel facing each irradiation unit and receiving each irradiated light beam block the light beam when it comes into contact with or approaches the touch panel. Touch operation or slide operation that detects the vertical and horizontal coordinates and recognizes them based on the detected coordinates, and
(3B) A touch operation or a slide operation in which a camera for capturing the display surface of the touch panel is provided, the user detects the position coordinates in contact with or close to the touch panel by the camera, and recognizes the position coordinates based on the detected position coordinates.
It includes a touch operation or a slide operation that recognizes by detecting that the touch panel is actually touched or brought close to the touch panel by using a detecting means having a shape different from that of the touch panel.

Further, the "plurality of puzzle objects displayed in a matrix" indicates, for example, objects arranged in the cells of a matrix composed of a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, and are "arranged in a concatenated manner". Means that they are continuously arranged in adjacent rows or columns. However, in the matrix shape composed of a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, it is not necessary for each mass to be formed in the same shape such as the same height and the same width, and the height and width are formed unevenly. It may not be arranged linearly on the top, bottom, left and right of adjacent squares.

Then, in the "when the puzzle object is specified", for example, not only when the puzzle object is completely specified by the slide operation input, but also when the puzzle object is continuously specified by the slide operation input, and This includes the case where a puzzle object is specified and it is confirmed and deleted.

Further, the "attribute" includes, for example, displayly identifiable characteristics such as color, shape (including size), and type (for example, when they have the same mark), and "same". The "attribute" means that at least one attribute is the same even when a plurality of attributes are defined in one puzzle object.

In addition to the above, the "given action" includes, for example, a player character in a battle game such as a striking action in a battle game, an action of executing magic, and a recovery action of recovering game parameters such as physical strength and life. All actions to be executed according to the enemy character are included, and the "action type" indicates these types.

And, "different types" are the types of categories for identifying the above-mentioned behavioral modes, and are the types of large categories such as striking, magic, and recovery, or, for example, striking such as punches and kicks. Indicates that the types of subcategories that indicate the types in the system are different.

In addition, the "effect of activation" is, for example, the ability value related to the action such as attack power and defense power, the number of points (energy value) affected by it, the items (including ability) that can be acquired after the action, and Includes the winning probability of the lottery executed after the action.

And, "the effect by activation is different" means that the ability value, the number of points, the item or the winning probability are different.

Further, "determining the action to be activated by circulating in a given order according to the number of puzzle objects" means, for example, defining each action of the action group in a predetermined order from the first to the Nth. While defining the cyclic order of returning to the first after the Nth, if the number of puzzle objects is N or more, the first is selected after the Nth, and the second It shows that the action is decided based on the cyclic order so as to follow the second ...

(2) Further, the present invention
The determination means
When a predetermined number of puzzle objects having the same attribute arranged in a concatenated manner are specified, the action type of the player character having the character attribute associated with the object attribute of the specified puzzle object is determined. Has a structure.

The "player character having a character attribute associated with the object attribute of the puzzle object" is, for example, a player character having the same attribute as the attribute of the puzzle object (when the attribute of the puzzle object is red, the attribute of the player character is (Red), a player character with attributes similar to the attributes of the puzzle object (when the attributes of the puzzle object are red, the attributes of the player character are red), or a player character with attributes related to the attributes of the puzzle object (red) If the attribute of the puzzle object is water, the attribute of the player character may be a water fairy) or any other player character having attributes related to the attributes of the puzzle object.

(3) Further, the present invention
The determination means
When the action type to be activated is determined by circulating in a given order, the action having improved performance in the action is determined as the number of circulating cycles increases.

According to this configuration, in the case where the same behavior as in the low circulation count (for example, the first round) is determined in the second and subsequent rounds, the present invention is determined in the first round or earlier. Compared to, for example, the ability (attack power and defense power) is increased, or a more advantageous effect is produced (the generated game parameter and the game parameter when damaging an enemy character are increased), and the cycle is low. Higher performance of actions based on the number of cycles than determined by the number of cycles High performance of actions based on the number of cycles is made, and even if the actions are of the same type or the same action due to the increased number of cycles, the ability to act is high. You can activate actions that have (performance).

In addition, "the number of circulations increases" means, for example, that each action of the action group is defined in a predetermined order from the first to the Nth, and the cycle returns to the first after the Nth. When the order is specified, the number of times until the Nth number is exceeded according to the number of objects is called the circulation number (to be exact, the number of times the Nth number is exceeded + 1), and the number of times is "increased". show.

(4) Further, the present invention

Then, the object data after the geometry processing (after the perspective projection conversion) (position coordinates of the vertices of the object, texture coordinates, color data (luminance data), normal vector, α value, etc.) is stored in the storage unit 270.

In the texture mapping, a process of mapping the texture (texel value) stored in the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 to the object is performed. Specifically, the texture (surface properties such as color (RGB) and α value) is read from the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 using the texture coordinates and the like set (assigned) to the vertices of the object, and a two-dimensional image is obtained. Map the texture that is to the object. In this case, processing for associating pixels with texels and bilinear interpolation as texel interpolation are performed.

In this embodiment, when drawing an object, a process of mapping a given texture may be performed. In this case, the color distribution (texel pattern) of the mapped texture can be dynamically changed.

Further, in this case, textures having different color distributions (pixel patterns) may be dynamically generated, or a plurality of textures having different color distributions may be prepared in advance so that the textures to be used are dynamically switched. You may. Further, the color distribution of the texture may be changed for each object.

In the hidden surface erasing process, the hidden surface erasing process is performed by the Z buffer method (depth comparison method, Z test) using the Z buffer (depth buffer) in which the Z value (depth information) of the drawing pixel is stored. That is, when drawing the drawing pixel corresponding to the primitive of the object, the Z value stored in the Z buffer is referred to, and the Z value of the referenced Z buffer and the Z value of the drawing pixel of the primitive are referred to. In comparison, if the Z value in the drawing pixel is the Z value (for example, a small Z value) that is on the front side when viewed from the virtual camera, the drawing pixel is drawn and the Z value in the Z buffer is newly added. Update to a Z value.

In α blending (α synthesis), the drawing unit 220 performs a translucent synthesis process (normally α blending, addition α blending, subtraction α blending, etc.) based on the α value (A value). The α value is information that can be stored in association with each pixel (texel, dot), and is, for example, plus alpha information other than color information. The α value can be used as mask information, semi-transparency (equivalent to transparency and opacity), bump information, and the like.

In particular, the drawing unit 220 in the present embodiment may generate an image to be displayed in the display area corresponding to the contact detection area. The image to be displayed in the display area may be, for example, an image including an object.

Further, the terminal device 20 of the present embodiment has a configuration in which a plurality of player characters used in the battle game are set in the deck based on a player's instruction before executing the puzzle game and the battle game.

Then, the terminal device 20 of the present embodiment determines the action type of each player character in the battle game and the effect of the action in the puzzle game part, and various types for executing the battle game according to the determined action type or effect. It has a configuration to execute control.

Specifically, the terminal device 20
(1) The first detection process for detecting the first change from the state in which the touch operation is not input to the touch panel 12 to the state in which the touch operation is input is performed, and after the detection of the first change is performed. When the touch operation input when the first change is detected is continued and the slide operation input is executed, the second change to the state where the touch operation input to the touch panel 12 is not input is detected. Executes the detection process of
(2) Based on the slide operation input from the first change to the second change, a predetermined number of the same puzzle objects displayed in a matrix on the touch panel 12 are connected and arranged. When a puzzle object with attributes is specified, an action type determination process for determining an action type indicating a given action type to be activated for an enemy character of a player character in a battle game is executed.
(3) Execute the battle game control process that controls the battle game based on the action of the determined action type.
It has a configuration.

Then, in the action type determination process of (2), the terminal device 20 is a puzzle object having the same attribute from an action group in which a plurality of actions in which at least one of the action type and the effect of the activation is different is defined. Has a configuration in which the action type is determined by circulating the determination order according to a given order according to the specified number of objects.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the actions in which the action types from the first to the third rank are attack 1, magic 1, and recovery 1 are stored in the game data storage unit 273. Suppose that group table data is used.

In this case, the terminal device 20 is in the battle game when the number of puzzle objects specified by the slide operation input in the puzzle game is 3 or more and 3, 6, 9, ... If the action type is attack 1 and the number of the objects is 4, 7, 10, ..., the action type in the battle game is set to magic 1, and the number of puzzle object objects is 5, 8, 11, ... In the case of, the action type in the battle game is determined to be recovery 1.

That is, in this case, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, when the number of puzzle objects specified by the slide operation input is 3 or more, the terminal device 20 makes an attack 1 and magic. It has a configuration in which the action types of 1 and recovery 1 are cyclically switched and determined as the action type of the target player character.

With this configuration, in the present embodiment, the player character's actions against the enemy character, such as hitting, magic, or recovery, are cyclically performed according to the number of objects having the same attributes specified from the puzzle objects arranged in a matrix. Since it can be changed to, it is possible to have the player specify a predetermined number of puzzle objects rather than specifying a large number of objects.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, it is possible to have a strategy of how many puzzle objects can be specified for the operation when specifying the puzzle in the player, so that the puzzle objects are simply used. It is possible to improve the fun of the game as compared with the case of designating or designating many of them.

In the present embodiment, "when the puzzle object is specified" means, for example, not only when the puzzle object is completely specified by the slide operation input, but also when the puzzle object is continuously specified by the slide operation input. This includes the case where the puzzle object is specified and the puzzle object is confirmed and deleted. However, in the following description, unless otherwise specified, the case where the puzzle object is specified by the slide operation input is shown.

[4.2] Puzzle game and battle game Next, the puzzle game and battle game of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 7. Note that FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the game of the present embodiment.

(puzzle game)
The first game control unit 213 of the present embodiment randomly sets attributes among a plurality of predetermined attributes such as color, shape, and characteristics on a game field (puzzle game area) in the touch panel 12, for example. The puzzle objects (that is, the reservoirs stored on the puzzle game area) are arranged in a matrix. That is, the first game control unit 213 arranges a plurality of puzzle objects in which predetermined attributes are set, for example, in each cell of a matrix composed of a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns.

In particular, in the present embodiment, the first game control unit 213 is composed of a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns in the puzzle game area AR01 and is the same as the intersection of the matrices, as shown in FIG. 7, for example. Puzzle objects are randomly placed on squares that are formed by height and the same width and are evenly arranged on the top, bottom, left, and right (in FIG. 7, round, triangular, and star-shaped attributes). ..

Then, the first game control unit 213 is the same number (for example, three) of a predetermined number or more (for example, three) of the plurality of puzzle objects displayed in a matrix based on the slide operation input. When a puzzle object with an attribute is specified (in FIG. 7, there are four round puzzle objects), the designation is given to the player while giving the player a predetermined score as satisfying the predetermined score acquisition conditions. The puzzle object is erased from the touch panel 12.

Further, when the designated puzzle object is erased from the touch panel 12, the first game control unit 213 controls the position of the unerased puzzle object in the puzzle area by the erased puzzle object (for example, a puzzle). Freely fall toward the bottom of the game area), for example, from the top of the puzzle game area, add a predetermined number of puzzle objects (eg, the same number of erased objects) to the new puzzle game area (erased columns). By adding and repeatedly deleting and adding the puzzle object, a puzzle game is executed in which the game for obtaining points is advanced.

On the other hand, the first game control unit 213 is given to be activated against an enemy character of a player character in a battle game when a predetermined number or more (for example, three) of puzzle objects having the same attribute are specified. The action type determination process for determining the action type indicating the action type is executed.

The details of the action type determination process for determining the action of the player character in the battle game in the puzzle game of the present embodiment will be described later.

(Competitive game)
For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the second game control unit 214 executes a battle game between a plurality of player characters set in the deck displayed in the deck area AR03 and an enemy character in the battle game area AR02.

In addition, the second game control unit 214 executes attacks between the player character and the enemy character in order by the turn system, and at the time of the player's turn, one player character from the deck is instructed by the player or the like. The selected player character is controlled by the action type determined by the above-mentioned puzzle game, and the battle game with the enemy character is controlled.

Specifically, in the second game control unit 214, the player character and the enemy character may be in a one-to-one battle game, or as shown in FIG. 7, the enemy character, the player character, or both of them play a plurality of battles. It may be a game, and the life energy is reduced by an attack, and the game in which the life energy is exhausted earlier is defeated.

Further, in the battle game, the second game control unit 214 refers to the table data of each player character for each turn according to a predetermined order or an order set (input) by the player. Based on the attributes of each player character and the ability parameters determined according to the player's game level, the action of the action type determined by the puzzle game is activated, and one or more player characters attack one or more enemy characters independently. To execute.

In particular, when the action of one player character is determined for each turn, the game control unit 213 advances the game while controlling the action of the player character, and the actions of a plurality of player characters are performed in one turn. When it is decided, the game is advanced while controlling the actions of each player character such as independent control and combo control.

Then, the second game control unit 214 has, as action types, for example, an action of striking an enemy character in a battle game, an action of executing magic such as an attack on an enemy character or recovery of parameters to a player character, and physical strength. It controls various actions performed by the player character according to the enemy character in a battle game such as a recovery action that recovers game parameters such as life.

On the other hand, when a predetermined number of objects (for example, 10 objects) is specified, the second game control unit 214 together with the action of the action type determined based on the designation, or the determined action type. Alternatively, a special effect or special action may be performed on the player character.

Further, the display control unit 212 interlocks with the drawing unit 220, and in the display area of the battle game on the touch panel 12 (area AR02 in FIG. 7), the game space player character and the enemy character in the battle game viewed from the virtual camera (related to the battle game). (Including those movements) is displayed.

The battle game using the puzzle game of the present embodiment may be a battle with the CPU, via the server device 10, or in a communication battle with another player using the terminal devices 20 to each other. There may be.

[4.3] Deck and Player Characters Set in the Deck Next, the deck of the present embodiment and the player characters set in the deck will be described. In the present embodiment, when the battle game is executed by a single player character, the battle game may be executed without using the deck.

The deck of the present embodiment is used for a battle game, and is data displayed in a display area different from the puzzle game area and the battle game area. The deck is data that defines a player character who plays against an enemy character in a battle game and a group in which items such as weapons, in-game currency, tools, and life energy owned by the player character are set.

In particular, each player character and item is arranged in the deck based on the player's instructions according to the number of player characters, the number of items, the cost required for arranging in the deck, the arrangement conditions, and the like. ing.

Further, the deck is registered in the player information 146 of the server device 10 or the player information 273 of the terminal device 20 for each player, and is configured so that each player can own a plurality of decks.

On the other hand, the player characters and items are provided by, for example, game cards that virtually exist in the game and are set in the deck.

Then, the player characters and items are provided to each player as initial settings, and during the execution of the game,
(1) If you win a match against another player
(2) If you clear a predetermined game stage, if the player's game level rises, or if you complete a predetermined game task (3) If you win in a lottery game called Gacha
(4) If the gift is given by another player registered as a friend
(5) It can be obtained when the purchase is made by paying the cost such as billing.

The acquired player characters and items are registered in player information 273 or player information 146 by the game management unit 217 as information on usable player characters and items.

Further, in the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, four player characters are set in the deck.

[4.4] Action type determination process Next, the action type determination process of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. 8 and 9 are diagrams for explaining the action type determination process of the present embodiment.

(Basic principle)
The first game control unit 213 is a predetermined number (for example, 3) of the plurality of puzzle objects arranged in a matrix in the puzzle game area during the puzzle game by the touch detection processing unit 211. When it is detected that a puzzle object having the same attributes as described above) is specified, the action type determination process is executed.

In particular, the first game control unit 213 performs the action type determination process based on the action group table data such as the striking system (for example, punch or kick), the magic system, or the recovery system stored in the game data storage unit 274. , Characters associated with the object attribute according to the number of objects of the puzzle object having the same specified attribute (hereinafter referred to as "object attribute") from the action group in which a plurality of action types are defined. Determine the action type of the player character with the attribute.

Further, the first game control unit 213 may determine one or a plurality of action types from the action types classified by different actions such as hitting, magic, and recovery as the action type, or punch. And one or more action types may be determined from the action types such as kicks which have the same action type but different effects.

In the present embodiment, for example, when three or more puzzle objects are specified, the action type determination process is executed, but when one or two or more puzzle objects are specified, the action type determination process is executed. The action type determination process may be executed.

(Relationship between object attributes and character attributes)
The first game control unit 213 determines the action type for the player character having the character attribute associated with the object attribute of the puzzle object.

Specifically, the object attributes and character attributes in the present embodiment include, for example, color, shape (including size), type (for example, when they have the same mark), and the like. The first game control unit 213 determines the action type for the player character having the character attribute associated with the characteristics that can be identified on the display.

In particular, when a plurality of player characters are set in the deck, the first game control unit 213 determines the action type of the player character having the same character attribute as the object attribute of the designated puzzle object. Set as a character.

Further, the first game control unit 213 is designated when one player character is preset from a plurality of player characters set in the deck, or when it is a single player character. When the object attribute of the puzzle object is the same as the preset or single player character character attribute, the action type of the preset or single player character is determined.

Then, the first game control unit 213 performs an action type for a player character having a character attribute indicating the same attribute as the attribute of the puzzle object, for example, when the attribute of the puzzle object is red and the attribute of the player character is red. To determine.

Further, the first game control unit 213 acts on a player character having a character attribute similar to the object attribute, such as when the attribute of the puzzle object is red (red) and the attribute of the player character is red (red). The type may be determined.

Further, the first game control unit 213 may determine an action type for a player character having an attribute related to the object attribute, such as when the attribute of the puzzle object is water and the attribute of the player character is a water fairy. ..

In addition, when a plurality of player characters are set in the deck, the first game control unit 213 has the object attributes of the specified puzzle object and two or more player characters among the plurality of player characters set in the deck. If it is the same as the character attribute, the action type of the corresponding two or more player characters may be determined.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the puzzle object and the player character may be set with one object attribute or one character attribute, or may be set with a plurality of object attributes or a plurality of character attributes. ..

When a plurality of object attributes or a plurality of character attributes are set, the first game control unit 213 is a player having a character attribute associated with one or a plurality of object attributes among the plurality of object attributes. The action type of the character may be determined, or the action type of the player character having the associated character attribute may be determined for the plurality of object attributes and all the attributes.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the action to be activated by a single player character is determined, or when the player character to be determined for the action type is determined by the instruction of the player or the identification by the program. , The process of specifying the player character to be determined for the action type is skipped regarding the presence / absence of the character attribute associated with the object attribute.

(Determination of action type based on the cycle of decision order)
As described above, the action group table data defines N different action types in which the determination order from the first to the Nth is predetermined, and the action group table data is the first after the Nth. A plurality of action types (for example, categories such as attack and defense) are defined as a cyclical order.

Therefore, from the action group table data, the first game control unit 213 sets the action types defined in the preset decision order corresponding to the specified number of objects with the same attribute as the puzzle objects of the action type. The action type of the player character to be determined is determined in a circular manner.

Specifically, when the number of specified objects is N or less, the first game control unit 213 sets the action type defined in the determination order corresponding to the number of objects in the action group table data. It is determined as the action type of the player character to be determined (determined in the first round).

On the other hand, when the number of specified objects is N + 1 or more, the first game control unit 213 returns to the first order after the Nth object in the action group table data in a cyclical order. As a result, the action type corresponding to the number of objects of N + 1 or more is determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type (determined in the mth round).

For example, when the specified number of objects x is (N + 1 ≦ x ≦ 2N), the first game control unit 213 is the (number of objects x− (N-1)) th from the action group table data. The corresponding action type is determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type (determined in the second round).

Further, when the designated number of objects x is (2N + 1 ≦ x ≦ 3N), the first game control unit 213 is the third (number of objects x− (2N-1)) from the action group table data. The corresponding action type is determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type (determined in the third round).

That is, when the specified number of objects x is (mN + 1 ≦ x ≦ (m + 1) N), the first game control unit 213 (m is a natural number), from the action group table data, (the number of objects x− (MN-1)) The action type corresponding to the third is determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type (determined in the mth round).

For example, when three or more puzzle objects are specified, as shown in FIG. 8 (A), the action type is determined, and the action group includes the action types of striking attack, magic, and recovery. At the same time, it is assumed that the order of determination of the action type is "striking attack", "magic", and "recovery".

In this case, as shown in FIG. 8B, the first game control unit 213 determines the hitting attack as the action type when there are three designated puzzle objects, and the designated puzzle object is When there are four, magic is determined as the action type, and when there are five designated puzzle objects, recovery is determined as the action type.

Then, as shown in FIG. 8B, the first game control unit 213 circulates and determines the striking attack as the action type when the designated puzzle objects are six, and the designated puzzle. When there are 7 objects, magic is determined as the action type, and when the specified puzzle object is 8, recovery is determined as the action type.

In the present embodiment, the game data storage unit 273 stores the action group table data used for the action type determination process for each player character, and the first game control unit 213 is the target of the action type determination. Although the action group table data associated with the player character is used, one action group table data used for the action type determination process is stored for each player, and the first game control unit 213 stores any player character. However, the same action group table data may be used.

(Performance (effect) of action type according to the number of circulations)
When the first game control unit 213 determines the action type to be activated by circulating in a given order, the first game control unit 213 determines the action whose performance is improved as the number of circulating cycles increases.

That is, the same action type is determined for the low circulation count (for example, the first round) and the high circulation count (for example, the second round) as the action type of the player character to be determined. The effect produced by the action when the action determined at the time of high circulation is activated is more advantageous than the effect of activating the action determined at the time of low circulation.

Specifically, as the number of cycles increases, the first game control unit 213 (1) performs performance such as the ability parameter when the number of cycles is high rather than the ability parameter such as the attack power and the number of attacks when the number of cycles is low. Higher or higher
(2) The effect that occurs when the number of circulations is high is more advantageous than the type of behavior when the number of circulations is low, which belongs to the same category.
The action type is circulated and decided according to the decision order.

That is, when the same action as when the number of circulations is low (for example, the first round) is determined in the second and subsequent rounds, the first game control unit 213 is determined by the number of circulations in the first round or earlier. For example, the ability (attack power or defense power) is increased, or a more advantageous effect is produced (the generated game parameter or the game parameter when damaging an enemy character is increased). The performance of the action by the decision at the time of high circulation is higher than that at the time of low circulation, and even if it is the same type of action or the same action by increasing the number of circulation, high action power (performance). ) Is determined as the action type.

In addition, "the number of circulations increases" means, for example, that each action of the action group is defined in a predetermined order from the first to the Nth, and the cycle returns to the first after the Nth. When the order is specified, the number of times until the Nth number is exceeded according to the number of objects is called the circulation number (to be exact, the number of times the Nth number is exceeded + 1), and the number of times is "increased". show.

For example, when three or more puzzle objects are specified, as shown in FIG. 9 (A), the action type is determined, and the action group includes the action types of batting attack, magic, and recovery. At the same time, it is assumed that the order of determination of the action type is "striking attack", "magic", and "recovery".

Then, the first round of striking attack is "punch" attack with attack power 10, the first round of magic is "Spell 1 (magic that can withstand enemy attacks)", the defense power is 10, and the first round of recovery is ""Acquisition of Chris" has a recovery power of 10, the second round of striking attack has an attack power of 20 with a "double kick" attack, and the second round of magic has a defense power of "Spell 2 (magic that repels enemy attacks)". 10 and attack power 10, recovery of the second round,
Resilience is set to 20 by "acquisition of medicinal herbs".

In this case, as shown in FIG. 9B, the first game control unit 213 determines "punch attack" as the action type when there are three designated puzzle objects, and the designated puzzle. When there are 4 objects, "Spell 1" is determined as the action type, and when the specified puzzle object is 5, "Acquisition of medicine" is determined as the action type.

Then, as shown in FIG. 9B, the first game control unit 213 circulates and determines the "double kick" attack as the action type when the designated puzzle objects are six, and the designation is made. When there are 7 puzzle objects, "Spell 2" is determined as the action type, and when the specified puzzle object is 8, "Acquisition of medicinal herbs" is determined as the action type.

Instead of the above, if the action type is simply determined in the second round from the first round, the attack power will be increased by 1.5 times even with the same action type "punch", and the striking power and recovery power will be increased. The performance and the effect given by the action type may be increased (energy consumption of the enemy character, etc.), and if the action type is determined in the second to third rounds, the performance and effect may be increased.

(When determining the action type for multiple player characters)
The first game control unit 213 simultaneously activates a plurality of player characters set in the deck when a predetermined number of puzzle objects having the same attributes are specified based on the slide operation input. The type of action in the action may be determined.

In this case, the first game control unit 213 may determine the action type for all the player characters set in the deck, or may be designated among all the player characters set in the deck. The action type may be determined for two or more player characters having a character attribute associated with the object attribute of the puzzle object.

Specifically, the first game control unit 213 reads out the action group table data in advance from the game data storage unit 274 for each player character to be determined as the action type, and in the same manner as described above, with each player character. Based on the corresponding action group table data, a puzzle object with the same attribute is circulated in a given order according to the specified number of objects from the action group in which different actions are defined. The action type of each target player character is determined.

Then, when the action type of each of the plurality of player characters is determined, the second game control unit 214 performs game control or combo attack (each of the single units) to execute the action of each player character. A game control is performed in which an action against an enemy character is executed in conjunction with the corresponding player character, such as an attack that can obtain a more advantageous effect than an attack).

In the present embodiment, for each of the plurality of player characters to be determined for the action type, a single action group table data in which the action type to be activated by each player character may be used may be used.

Further, in the present embodiment, a plurality of action types that are simultaneously activated for one player character may be determined. In this case, a plurality of action types (for example, two) that are activated at the same time may be specified in the action group table data, or a number of action group table data may be used according to a player's instruction or the like. The type of action may be determined.

(When determining the same type of action that has different effects)
In the present embodiment, the first game control unit 213 corresponds to the number of designated objects of puzzle objects having the same attribute from among the action groups having different effects due to the activation of the action, instead of the action type, in advance. The action types defined in the set decision order may be circulated and determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type.

In this case, the first game control unit 213 is defined from the same action type, and the ability value related to the action such as attack power and defense power, the number of points (energy value) affected by the ability value, and the acquisition after the action. From possible items (including abilities) or action groups with different winning probabilities of lottery executed after actions, puzzle objects with the same attributes correspond to the specified number of objects and are in a preset decision order. The defined action type may be circulated and determined as the action type of the player character to be determined for the action type.

For example, when three or more puzzle objects are specified, the action type of the same "kick" is determined, and the action group includes an attack power "10", an attack power "20", and an attack power "30". Is specified, and the decision order is specified in this order.

In this case, the first game control unit 213 determines the "attack power 10" of the "kick" as the action type when the designated puzzle objects are 3, 6, and 9, and is designated as the action type. When there are 4, 7 and 10 puzzle objects, the "attack power 20" of "kick" is determined as the action type, and when the specified puzzle objects are 5, 8 and 11, "kick" "Attack power 30" is determined as the action type.

In this embodiment, a plurality of actions having different action types such as punch A (effect 5), punch B (effect 10), magic A (effect 2), and magic B (effect 25) and the effect to be activated are different. From the action group in which is specified, the player character whose action type is determined by the action type specified in the predetermined decision order corresponding to the specified number of objects with the same attribute. As the action type of, it may be determined by circulating.

[4.5] Support display in the action type determination process Next, the support display in the action type determination process of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Note that FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining the support display in the action type determination process of the present embodiment.

The display control unit 212 works with the drawing unit 220 in order to make the player recognize the action type to be determined during the slide operation input, and when a predetermined number of puzzle objects having the same attribute are specified by the slide operation input. In a predetermined area of the touch panel 12, information on the action of the action type to be determined is displayed at a position related to the slide operation input or a position related to the player character.

Specifically, when the display control unit 212 is inputting a slide operation and before the number of objects is determined and a puzzle object having the same attribute specified by the slide operation input is specified, the display control unit 212 has previously specified. From the read action group table data, the action type information associated with the number of objects of the puzzle object is displayed at the position related to the slide operation input or the position related to the player character on the touch panel 12.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the display control unit 212 has a position related to the slide operation input.
(A1) The position on the puzzle object that has already been specified,
(A2) On the slide operation (for example, the position where the first change is detected (slide operation input start position),
(A3) The position where the second change is detected (the position where the touch operation input is currently executed)) or
(A4) In the vicinity of (A1) to (A3), the number of objects of the puzzle object, the action type associated with the number of objects, and information on both of them are displayed as information on the action type.

In particular, FIG. 10A shows that the information on the number of objects and the action type is displayed in the vicinity of the position where the second change is detected (the position where the touch operation input is currently executed).

Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 10B, the display control unit 212 has a position regarding the player character.
(B1) The position where the player character that is the target of the action type determination, such as the deck and the display area of the battle game that executes the battle game, is displayed.
(B2) Predetermined position on the screen in the battle game (upper left and right corners in the display area of the battle game),
(B3) A given position in the game screen (the position where the player character's mark is displayed in the puzzle game area), which is suggested to be the action of the player character, or
(B4) In the vicinity of (B1) to (B3), the number of objects of the puzzle object, the action type associated with the number of objects, and both information are displayed as the action type information.

In particular, FIG. 10B shows that the information on the number of objects and the action type is displayed in the vicinity of the position where the player character is displayed in the display area of the battle game.

When a plurality of player characters are set in the deck, it is preferable that the player characters are displayed at positions corresponding to the respective player characters, such as the position where the player characters are displayed.

In addition, as the action type information, parameters related to abilities such as attack power according to the action type, parameters of the effect generated by invoking the action of the action type, the name of the action type, and the number of the following objects are specified. Includes information on behavior types.

Further, as information on the action of the action type to be decided, the action type of the next stage of the action type to be decided, that is, the action type to be activated next when the number of objects increases and the action type to be activated are activated. It may include the number of objects to do.

For example, in this case, if the current slide operation input is specified as the number of objects is 3 and the action type is a blow attack, the action type to be activated next is magic, and the number of objects is 4. , As information about the action of the action type to be decided, if the number of objects is "+1", the magic of the action type is displayed as information.

On the other hand, the display control unit 212 interlocks with the drawing unit 220, and at a timing such as when setting the deck, for each player character stored in the game data storage unit 273 by an instruction of the player or an instruction based on the progress of the game. It has a function of displaying the action type set in the action group parameter data on the touch panel 12 so that the player can view it.

[4.6] Action type determination process of the synthetic player character Next, the action type determination process of the synthetic player character of the present embodiment will be described.

The synthesis processing unit 218 executes a synthesis process of synthesizing the synthesis source player character desired by the player with another player character or item provided according to the program of the player or game, and the synthesis player character having new characteristics. Is generated (acquired).

Then, the synthesis processing unit 218 registers the generated synthetic player character in the player information 273 while deleting the synthesis source player character from the player information 273.

In addition, the synthesis processing unit 218 switches the action type such as attack technique or magic to the synthesis specification (including the addition of a special action type), or the effect generated by each action type is more advantageous (for example,). The corresponding action group table data stored in the game data storage unit 273 is updated to the synthetic player character specification, such as by switching to (higher parameter), or newly generated for the synthetic player character and the game data storage unit. Register at 273.

In the game management unit 219, when a synthetic player character is set in the deck and the next turn is determined to be a synthetic player character by the player's instruction, the corresponding action group stored in the game data storage unit 273 From the action group defined in the table data, the action type determination process in which the puzzle objects with the same attribute determine the action type by circulating the determination order according to the specified number of objects is performed. Run.

[4.6] Modification Example The terminal device 20 of the present embodiment is a plurality of actions in which at least one of the action type and the effect of activation is different, and is defined by the attributes specified by the player character and the enemy character. From an action group that defines multiple actions that have a given characteristic for at least one of the attributes, the action type is stepwise according to the number of puzzle objects with the same attribute specified. May be determined.

For example, the action group table data defines an action type in which an action triggered by a character attribute is invalid, and an action type having an effect of doubling by the character attribute. Then, the action type is changed stepwise according to the number of objects, and when a given action is activated, the effect generated on the enemy character is changed depending on the relationship with the character attribute.

For example, "punch", "kick" and "throw" are specified for the action type, and "punch" is strong against "kick" but weak against "throw", and "kick" is changed to "throw". Is strong but weak against "punch", assuming the case of "Sansukumi".

In this case, the second game control unit 214 has a characteristic (for example,) that when the first action (punch) is determined as the action type, the character attribute of the enemy character invalidates the determined first action (for example). , The attribute that the throwing technique is good at) is executed, and the game control that stops the action is executed.

Further, the second game control unit 214 has a characteristic that the character attribute of the enemy character doubles the effect of the determined second action when the second action (kick) is determined as the action type ( For example, if the player has an attribute (attribute that he is good at throwing), the effect of the action is doubled (the attack power is doubled) and the game control is executed.

In the second game control unit 214, when the first action (punch) is determined as the action type, the character attribute of the player character invalidates the determined first action (for example, punch). If the player has an attribute that he / she is not good at, he / she may execute a game control that stops the action.

[5] Operation of the game system Next, the operation of the action control process of the player character based on the slide operation input in the battle game including the puzzle game of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. 11 and 12 are flowcharts showing the operation of the player character's action control process based on the slide operation input in the battle game including the puzzle game of the present embodiment.

In this operation, it is assumed that a plurality of player characters are set in the deck in advance, and a plurality of puzzle objects are already arranged in a matrix in the puzzle game area.

First, when the first game control unit 213 detects a player object (hereinafter, referred to as “next player character”) for which the next action type should be determined (hereinafter referred to as “next player character”) (step S101), the first game control unit 213 is under the control of the display control unit 212. The next player object formed in the deck area of the touch panel 12 is highlighted, and the corresponding action group table data is read from the game data storage unit 273 and stored in the main storage unit 271 (step S102).

Next, the first game control unit 213 interlocks with the display control unit 212 to blink the puzzle object having the same object attribute as the character attribute of the next player character (step S103).

Next, the first game control unit 213 interlocks with the touch detection processing unit 211, and determines whether or not the puzzle object has the same object attribute by the slide operation input at predetermined timings. (Step S104), when the slide operation input is sliding on a puzzle object having the same object attribute, it is determined whether or not a specified number (for example, 3) or a specified number or more of puzzle objects are specified. Detect (step S105).

Specifically, the first game control unit 213 continuously moves the touch operation input on the puzzle object having the same object attribute after the first detection process by the touch detection processing unit 211, and the first detection position. It is detected whether or not a specified number of puzzle objects having the same attribute or a specified number or more of puzzle objects are specified between the position and the position where the slide operation input is continued (second detection position).

Further, when the touch detection processing unit 211 executes the first detection process and detects that the first game control unit 213 has changed from the non-contact state to the contact state, the first game control unit 213 mainly uses that position as the first detection position. While storing in the storage unit 271, in conjunction with the touch detection processing unit 211, the touch operation input is continued thereafter, and from the first detection position to the position where the slide operation input is continued (second detection position). Detects whether or not a specified number of puzzle objects with the same attribute are specified in.

Then, at this time, when the first game control unit 213 determines that the puzzle object having the same object attribute is not slid by the slide operation input, or when it is determined that the specified number has not been reached, step S104 If it is determined that the specified number of puzzle objects have been continuously specified while sliding on the puzzle objects with the same object attributes by repeating the process of step S1
It shifts to the process of 06.

Next, the first game control unit 213 determines whether or not the object attributes of the specified number of the same attributes or the specified number or more of the puzzle objects are related to the character attributes of the player character (for example, whether or not they match). (Step S106).

At this time, when the first game control unit 213 determines that the object attribute of the puzzle object input by the slide operation is related to the character attribute of the player character, the process proceeds to the process of step S107, and these attributes If it is determined that there is no relationship between the above, the process proceeds to step S121.

Next, the first game control unit 213 refers to the read action group table data, specifies an action type corresponding to a specified number or a specified number or more of puzzle objects, and stores the action type in the main storage unit 271 (step S107).

Next, the first game control unit 213 displays information on the identified action type on the corresponding player character in the deck area in conjunction with the display control unit 212, or updates the display (step S108).

Next, the first game control unit 213 interlocks with the touch detection processing unit 211 to determine whether or not the slide operation input has been completed (that is, whether or not the third detection process has been executed to enter a non-contact state). Is determined (step S109).

At this time, if the first game control unit 213 determines that the slide operation input has not been completed, the process proceeds to the process of step S104, and if it determines that the slide operation input has been completed, the first game control unit 213 proceeds to step S106. The action type stored in the process is determined as the action type of the next player character (step S110).

Next, the first game control unit 213 erases the puzzle object designated by the slide operation input from the puzzle game area, and uses the score obtained by the number of objects and the object attributes of the designated puzzle object as the player's score. Add (step S111).

Next, the second game control unit 214 activates an action in the determined action type for the next player character, controls the battle game accompanying the activation (step S112), and ends this operation.

On the other hand, when the first game control unit 213 determines in the process of step S106 that the object attribute of the puzzle object input by the slide operation is not related to the character attribute of the player character, the first game control unit 213 Determines whether or not the slide operation input is completed (that is, whether or not the third detection process is executed and the non-contact state is reached) in conjunction with the touch detection processing unit 211 (step S121).

At this time, if the first game control unit 213 determines that the slide operation input has not been completed, the process proceeds to the process of step S104, and if it determines that the slide operation input has been completed, the first game control unit 213 proceeds to step S122. Move to processing.

Next, the first game control unit 213 erases the puzzle object designated by the slide operation input from the puzzle game area, and uses the score obtained by the number of objects and the object attributes of the designated puzzle object as the player's score. Addition (step S122), and this operation is terminated.
