  • Patent number: 9345959
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to relieve time and effort required for manipulated input. The game program according to the present invention causes a computer to perform, an offering process to offer the game content to the user; a recording process to record an offered game content offered in the offering process, as an owned game content owned by the user; a reception process to receive a prearranged registration of a specified game content specified by an input from a user; a judgment process, when an offer game content is offered to a user in the offering process after the reception process, to compare the offered game content to the specified game content prearranged for registration, to judge whether or not the offered game content is to be made an owned game content of the user; and an update process to update a record of the owned game content owned by the user based on a judgment result in the judgment process.

  • Patent number: 8961287
    Abstract: A server device selects by lot one event from among a plurality of events including an encounter event with an enemy character present in a predetermined area in a network game, accepts from a user a command indicating action taken on the enemy character, when the encounter event is selected by lot, performs a process on the enemy character, based on the accepted command, and stores a status of the enemy character obtained after processed. In addition, the server device selects by lot an encounter event for re-encountering an enemy character encountered in past, with a predetermined probability, reads from a memory a status of the re-encountered enemy character obtained at a past encounter, and sets the status as an initial status of the re-encountered enemy character.
