<Processing>
Next, the processing of the information processing system 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 9. FIG. 4 is a sequence diagram showing an example of processing of the information processing system 1 according to the embodiment. The users of the information terminal 20A, the information terminal 20B, and the information terminal 20C are referred to as user A (an example of a "first user"), user B (an example of a "second user"), and user C, respectively.

In step S1, the reception unit 21 of the information terminal 20 receives an operation of starting the game from the user A, and then receives an operation of holding the housing of the information terminal 20A in a predetermined direction from the user A. Here, the operation of holding the information terminal 20 is, for example, the operation of holding the housing of the information terminal 20 so that the user can see the screen of the information terminal 20 in the direction of the object existing at a predetermined position in the virtual three-dimensional space. The operation of turning the back side (back side). That is, the operation is the same as the operation when the subject by the camera on the back of the housing is viewed on the screen on the front of the housing. The direction of holding is not limited to the direction of the sky, but may be the direction of the ground or the like.

Subsequently, the acquisition unit 22 of the information terminal 20A acquires the current position of the information terminal 20A and the posture of the information terminal 20A (step S2). Here, the acquisition unit 22 of the information terminal 20A acquires the latitude and longitude of the current position by using, for example, GPS (Global Positioning System) or the like. Further, the information terminal 20A acquires the posture of the housing of the information terminal 20A by using a sensor such as a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, or a geomagnetic sensor. As the posture of the housing of the information terminal 20, for example, the inclination of the housing of the information terminal 20 with respect to the vertical direction may be acquired.

Subsequently, the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A transmits information on the current position acquired by the acquisition unit 22 and the posture of the housing to the server device 10 (step S3).

Subsequently, the acquisition unit 12 of the server device 10 determines the position of the information terminal 20A and the direction in which the information terminal 20A is held (the direction in which the back surface of the screen of the information terminal 20A is directed) in the virtual three-dimensional space. (Step S4). Here, the acquisition unit 12 of the server device 10 is based on the latitude and longitude of the current position of the information terminal 20A, and the position of the information terminal 20A whose origin is an arbitrary position (for example, the position of the center of the earth) (for example, the position of the center of the earth). Absolute coordinates) is calculated, and the position is calculated as a position on the virtual three-dimensional space. Further, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 calculates the direction in which the information terminal 20A is held up based on the posture of the housing of the information terminal 20.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a process for determining a position and a direction in a virtual three-dimensional space according to an embodiment. In FIG. 5, the information terminal 20A is held toward the sky by the user A located in the northern hemisphere of the earth 501, and the information terminal 20B is held toward the ground by the user B located in the southern hemisphere. It is shown.

In the example of FIG. 5, the server device 10 calculates the position (absolute coordinates) 502A of the information terminal 20A based on the latitude and longitude of the current position of the information terminal 20A, and is based on the posture of the housing of the information terminal 20A. Therefore, the direction l ₁ over which the information terminal 20A is held is calculated. Further, the server device 10 calculates the position 502B of the information terminal 20B based on the latitude and longitude of the current position of the information terminal 20B, and the information terminal 20B is held over based on the posture of the housing of the information terminal 20B. The direction l ₂ is calculated.

Subsequently, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 determines the planet to be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20A based on the position of the planet in the virtual three-dimensional space, the position, and the direction (step S5). , The display control unit 14 transmits the data of the planet to the information terminal 20A (step S6).

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a process of determining a planet located in the direction in which the information terminal 20 is held over in a virtual three-dimensional space. In the example of FIG. 6, planets 601 and 602 are set in the virtual three-dimensional space at the positions of real celestial bodies in the real space with the center of the earth 501 as the origin. Here, the real celestial body in the real space is, for example, a celestial body such as a planet, a comet, a satellite, a star, a nebula, or a galaxy existing in the real outer space. The control unit 13 of the server device 10 may calculate the position of the celestial body in the real space based on the preset position of the celestial body at a predetermined time, the orbit of the celestial body, the current date and time, and the like. .. The control unit 13 of the server device 10 may calculate the position of the celestial body in the real space by another known method.

In the example of FIG. 6, planet 601 is set, for example, at the position of Betelgeuse in Orion, and planet 602 is set at the position of the moon. When the distance from the earth 501 is sufficiently large compared to the radius of the earth 501 as in the planet 601, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 determines the position of the planet 601 in the virtual three-dimensional space and the information terminal 20. It may be determined whether or not to display the planet 601 on the screen of the information terminal 20 based on the direction in which the planet 601 is held. In this case, in the example of FIG. 5, the direction l ₁ over which the information terminal 20A is held and the direction l ₂ over which the information terminal 20B is held are the same, and the planet 601 is located in the direction from the earth 501 to l ₁ in FIG. If set, planet 601 is displayed on both the information terminal 20A and the information terminal 20B.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of planetary data 111. In the example of FIG. 7, the planet data 111 stored in the storage unit 11 of the server device 10 is associated with an image, a position in a virtual three-dimensional space, an appearance period, an appearance area, an environment, and an enemy. The character, the number of plays, the number of players, the remaining number of each item that can be acquired, and the probability that each material is extracted from each item are stored.

The planet ID is the identification information of the planet. The image is an image such as an illustration of the planet to be displayed on the information terminal 20. The position on the virtual three-dimensional space is the position on the virtual three-dimensional space of the planet, for example, the position of a predetermined celestial body on the real space. The control unit 13 of the server device 10 may set the position in the virtual three-dimensional space to a position irrelevant to the celestial body in the real space. The appearance period is the period during which the planet is displayed on the information terminal 20. The appearance period may be set for each type of planet in the game. In this case, for example, planets related to the story of the game will always appear, planets related to limited-time events will appear only during that period, and planets related to real celestial bodies will only appear during the period when the celestial body appears in the real night sky in each spawning area. It may be set to appear. The appearance area is a range such as the latitude and longitude of the current position of the information terminal 20 where the planet is displayed on the information terminal 20.

The environment is the environment that appears in the game on the planet. An enemy character is an enemy character (monster) that appears in a game on the planet and interferes with the collection of items by the character used by the user. The number of plays is the number of times the game on the planet has been played by each user. The number of players is the number of users currently playing the game on the planet. The remaining number of each item that can be acquired is the remaining number of each item that can be acquired by the game on the planet. The probability that each material will be extracted from each item is the probability that each material will be extracted from each item that can be obtained by the game on the planet.

In the example of FIG. 7, from October 8th to November 3rd, the positions of x1 and y1 in the virtual _{three -} dimensional space in the information terminal 20 in which the latitude and longitude of the current position are included in the area A. When the information terminal 20 is held up toward the image A, the image A is displayed on the information terminal 20 at a position on the screen corresponding to the position.

Subsequently, the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A causes the display control unit 24 to display the planet on the screen (step S7). Here, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 is the number of users who are currently playing the game on the planet, the number of users who have played the game on the planet so far, and the game on the planet is played by all users. Information such as the number of times the game has been played may be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20A in association with the planet. Alternatively, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 is the number of users who are currently playing the game on the planet among the users registered as friends by the user A, and the users who have played the game on the planet so far. Information such as the number and the number of times the game on the planet has been played by the user registered as the friend may be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20A in association with the planet.

The control unit 13 of the server device 10 may display the number of these users on the screen of the information terminal 20A by means of an avatar of each user, an icon for each predetermined number of users (for example, 10 people), a numerical value, or the like. good. Further, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 may display an image of the planet on the screen of the information terminal 20A in a display mode according to the number and number of these users. In this case, for example, as the number and number of these users increase, the display mode may be such that the brightness of the image of the planet becomes brighter. Further, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 may display a national flag corresponding to the current position of each user in association with the avatar of each user.

Further, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 displays the predetermined planet to the first user when the user B registered as a friend to the user A can play the game on the predetermined planet. It may be possible. In this case, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 responds to, for example, the acquisition of a predetermined item such as a planet map (star map), the improvement of the level of the planet on which the user B is based, the improvement of the level of the facility, and the like. By holding the information terminal 20B over, a predetermined planet can be displayed, and the user B can play a game on the predetermined planet. Then, in the control unit 13 of the server device 10, even if the predetermined planet is not displayed by the operation of holding the information terminal 20A at the level of the planet on which the user A is based, the user A makes the user B a friend. When registered in the control unit 13 of the server device 10, the predetermined planet can be displayed by holding the information terminal 20A.

Further, when the user B registered as a friend to the user A can play the game on the predetermined planet, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 can operate the user B to hold the predetermined planet. When displayed, or when user B captures a predetermined planet, the user can hold the information terminal 20A at a position on the screen corresponding to the predetermined planet, for example, up, down, left, or right of the predetermined planet. The information of B may be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20A.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displaying a planet. In the example of FIG. 8, the planets 801 and 802 are displayed on the information terminal 20A. Planet 801 is a planet that can be played by user B registered as a friend by user A, displayed by the operation of holding it by user B, or captured by user B, and is associated with planet 801 and is associated with user B. The avatar image 811 of the above and the message 812 indicating that the user B has found it are displayed.

Further, on the planet 802, each avatar of a plurality of users who are currently playing the game on the planet 802 is displayed.

Further, when the control unit 13 of the server device 10 receives, for example, an operation of long-pressing a planet from the user A by the reception unit 21 of the information terminal 20A, the appearance date and time of the planet and the appearance of the planet are completed. The date and time to be played, the remaining number of items that can be obtained by the game on the planet, the environment in the game on the planet, and the like may be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20A in association with the planet. When displaying the environment, a text indicating the environment may be displayed, or the environment may be displayed by an image of the planet. By displaying the environment in the game on the planet, the user can determine, for example, to take a character having the property of being able to pass through the fire to the planet in the case of a fire environment. In addition, the user can determine that if the environment is water, the character having the characteristic of being able to move in the water is taken to the planet.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displaying detailed information on the planet. In the example of FIG. 9, the user presses and holds the planet 802 and the like of FIG. 8, and the remaining number of items and the like that can be obtained by the game on the planet 802 are displayed.
In the example of FIG. 9, the planet 802 is a planet stored as the planet ID "001" in the planet data 111 of FIG. In the example of FIG. 9, the remaining number of "gold treasures" is "31", and high-quality gold treasures, which are "ultra-rare""goldtreasures", are extracted from "gold treasures". It is associated with the planet 802 that the probability is "30%" and the probability that ordinary gold treasure, which is a "rare""goldtreasure", is extracted from "gold treasure" is "70%". It is displayed in the area 901.

Subsequently, when the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A receives the operation of capturing (recording) the planet from the user A by the reception unit 21 (step S8), the control unit 23 stores the data of the planet (step S9). Thereby, for example, the user A can play a game on the planet later without performing the holding operation again. Further, for example, when a planet that appears for a limited time is captured, the control unit 13 of the server device 10 elapses the period, and even after the planet is no longer displayed by the holding operation, the predetermined time after the capture. You may be able to play the game on the planet within (eg, 24 hours). Hereinafter, the planet will be described as having already been captured in the information terminal 20B and the information terminal 20C.

Subsequently, when the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A, the information terminal 20B, and the information terminal 20C receives from each user an operation of selecting a planet to be played from one or more captured planets by the reception unit 21. (Step S10-1, step S10-2, step S10-3), the data of the game on the planet is acquired from the control unit 13 of the server device 10 (step S11-1, step S11-2, step S11-3). ).

Subsequently, the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A, the information terminal 20B, and the information terminal 20C simultaneously executes the game on the planet by the online game provided by the control unit 13 of the server device 10 (step S12-1, Step S12-2, step S12-3). The game on the planet will be described later.

Subsequently, when the game on the planet is completed, the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A obtains the item acquired in the game on the planet by the online game provided by the control unit 13 of the server device 10 by the user on the game. Take it back to the planet where A is based (step S13).

Subsequently, when the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A receives various operations from the user A on the planet on which the user A is based by the reception unit 21 (step S14), the control unit 23 controls the server device 10 in response to the operations. The online game provided by the unit 13 executes various processes on the planet on which the user A is based (step S15). Various processes on the planet on which each user is based will be described later.

≪Game on the planet≫
Next, with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10C, the processing of the game on the planet in steps S12-1, step S12-2, and step S12-3 in FIG. 4 will be described. Hereinafter, an example in which three users, User A, User B, and User C, play a game at the same time will be described, but the number of users who can participate in the game at the same time is not limited to three.

10A to 10C are diagrams showing an example of a display screen of a game on a planet. In the example of FIG. 10A, a list of characters 1001A, character 1001B, character 1001C, item 1001D, and item 1001E that can be used by user A in a game on a planet is displayed in the lower area 1001 in the screen of the information terminal 20A. ing.

The character 1001A is, for example, a character having a characteristic of being able to pass through a fire. The character 1001B is a character 1001A equipped with a weapon and whose attack power is improved. The character 1001C is, for example, a character having a characteristic of being able to act in the water. Item 1001D is a bomb item for exploding and attacking a character operated by user B and user C. Item 1001E is a trap item for capturing enemy characters that live on the planet. Since the enemy character attacks the character operated by the user, it is possible to more easily acquire the item on the planet by capturing the enemy character. You can also bring the captured enemy character into a spaceship and take it to the planet on which the user is based.

Further, in the example of FIG. 10A, a predetermined field on the planet is displayed in the area 1010 in the screen of the information terminal 20A. In the area 1010, items 1002 and items 1003 that can be obtained by the user A in the game on the planet, enemy characters 1004 inhabiting the planet, fire 1005 that is an obstacle, spacecraft 1006, and the like are displayed. In the example of FIG. 10A, the item 1002 is located near the enemy character 1004 and the fire 1005, and the item 1003 is located underwater. Here, on the spacecraft 1006, a character brought from the planet on which User A is based to the planet that will be the stage (stage) of the game is on board, and the character was acquired in the game on the planet. Bring the item into spacecraft 1006.

When the character 1001A is selected by the user A by pressing (tapping) the character 1001A, and the place in the area 1010 is pressed by the user A, one or more characters 1001A are transferred from the spacecraft 1006. Go to the place. In addition, for example, the character 1001A may be set to sortie as many times as the number of times the place is pressed by the user A. Then, when all of the characters 1001A brought from the planet on which the user A is based to the planet to be the stage of the game sortie, the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20A displays, for example, the character 1001A in the area 1001 in gray out. Character 1001A may not be selectable.

The sortie character 1001A tries to bring the item 1002, the item 1003, etc. near the place into the spacecraft 1006.

In the example of FIG. 10B, the character 1001A of the user A tries to bring the item 1002 into the spacecraft 1006, and the character 1020 of the user B tries to bring the item 1002 into the spacecraft of the user B and pulls each other. Is being done. In this pull, the item 1002 is pulled toward the spacecraft 1006 of user A or the spacecraft of user B based on the number of characters 1001A of user A and the number of characters 1020 of user B. Specifically, the item 1002 is pulled toward the spaceship of the user who has the larger number of characters pulling the item 1002.

In addition to the comparison of the numbers, it may be determined which user's spaceship the item 1002 is pulled toward based on the ability of the character 1001A and the ability of the character 1020.

In the screen of FIG. 10B, it is assumed that after the item 1001D is pressed by the user A, the place where the character 1020 of the user B exists in the area 1010 is pressed by the user A. In this case, as shown in FIG. 10C, item 1001D explodes at the location and attacks character 1020 of user B. As a result, the character 1020 of the user B disappears, and the character 1001A of the user A can carry the item 1002 into the spacecraft 1006.

In the example of FIGS. 10A to 10C, the remaining time of the game on the planet is displayed in the upper area 1011 in the screen of the information terminal 20A. The game on the planet ends when a predetermined time (for example, 2 minutes) has passed from the start of the game, or when all the items have been carried into each user's spaceship. Then, each user can bring back the items that had been carried into the spacecraft at the time of completion to the planet on which each user is based.

In the game on the planet, the characters 1001A, 1001B, and 1001C operated by the user A start their actions by AI (Artificial Intelligence) after the place to sortie is specified by the user A. Therefore, in a game on a planet, the number of operations by the user is relatively small, so that the communication frequency can be reduced and a relatively large number of users can play against each other at the same time.

Further, since the control unit 13 of the server device 10 or the control unit 23 of the information terminal 20 has poor visibility depending on the planet to be played, the character operated by the user B approaches the character operated by the user A. Until then, the character operated by the user B in the information terminal 20A may not be displayed on the screen of the information terminal 20. Further, depending on the planet to be played, gravity may be large, so that the character operated by the user must be at least a predetermined threshold value to be carried, or the speed at which the item is carried may be reduced.
