Publication number: 20240173630Abstract: An object is to provide a user with motivation to enjoy waking up in the morning and guide the user to sufficient awakening by generating a breeding event in a breeding game of a virtual life form when the user wakes up in the morning. A game server that manages progress of a breeding game of a virtual life form can provide a user with motivation to enjoy waking up in the morning and guide the user to sufficient awakening by generating a breeding event in a breeding game of a virtual life form when the user wakes up in the morning. The game server includes circuitry configured to acquire a wake-up time of a user; and a update the breeding game in accordance with the acquired wake-up time.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2024Publication date: May 30, 2024Applicant: The Pokémon CompanyInventors: Takayuki SHINDO, Satoshi OGAWA, Kaname KOSUGI, Marie SHUTO, Koya NAKAHATA

Publication number: 20240017176Abstract: A game system acquires the sleep information of a user and a game that uses the sleep information can be advanced even in a situation where the sleep information cannot be measured appropriately. The game system includes processing circuitry configured to acquire the sleep information of the user, generate modified sleep information with respect to at least a part of the sleep information by modifying the sleep information on the basis of sleep information having different content to the sleep information. When the modified sleep information has not been generated, the processing circuitry determines a first effect of the game on the basis of the sleep information, and when the modified sleep information has been generated, the processing circuitry determines a second effect, the second effect differing from the first effect, on the basis of the modified sleep information.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2023Publication date: January 18, 2024Applicant: The Pokémon CompanyInventors: Kaname KOSUGI, Yuki TERADA, Marie SHUTO, Koya NAKAHATA, Takumi TSUKADA, Keisuke MIYAGAWA
