Abstract: A game data processing section 100 is provided with an item assessment section 41 and an event generation section 42. The item assessment section 41 assesses whether or not the number of pieces of a virtual item possessed by a virtual user is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold value, extracts one type of virtual item from among virtual items possessed by the virtual user, and assesses whether or not the number of pieces of the one type of virtual item is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value. The event generation section 42 generates an event in which the one type of virtual item can be consumed, when the item assessment section assesses the number of pieces of the one type of virtual item is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: A game server includes an operation data receiving section that receives, from a terminal whereto a plurality of games is provided via a communication network, operation data for operating a virtual user created in a virtual space, an overall ranking creating section that creates an overall ranking based on ranking-per-game information related to the plurality of games stored in a storing section, an item extracting section that extracts a virtual item stored in a storing section and usable in a specific game, based on information on the overall ranking upon reception of predetermined operation data from the terminal, and an item setting section that sets an extracted virtual item as a virtual item possessed by the virtual user.

Abstract: A game server includes a storage that stores information representing a virtual space having two-dimensionally arranged virtual positions where virtual users can exist, a map-creating section creating a two-dimensional map by connecting a route between the virtual positions, a table that stores identification data of a virtual user existing at each virtual position, a data-transmitting section transmitting two-dimensional-map-image data to a network-connected terminal, a data-receiving section receiving operation data from the terminal, a position-changing section changing the virtual position of the virtual user to a destination virtual position when accumulated points become or exceeds required points, and a data-updating section updating the identification data when the virtual position of the virtual user is changed.

Abstract: A game server includes an acquisition right-granting section that grants an acquisition right for acquiring an item in a virtual space to a first virtual user, a proxy right-generating section that generates a proxy right to allow a second virtual user to exercise the acquisition right as a proxy, a proxy right-granting section that grants only the proxy right to the second virtual user, a positional information acquisition section that acquires a position of a second physical user's terminal, a proxy right-exercising section that exercises the proxy right by the second virtual user, an area-limited item-storing section that stores an area-limited item in association with a position in the physical space, an item information reading/loading section that reads/loads an area-limited item from the area-limited item storing section, and an item-providing section that provides only the first virtual user with the area-limited item read/loaded by the item information reading/loading section.

Abstract: A game server of the present disclosure comprises: a map data storing section that stores map data; a virtual position data table that stores identification data; a display process data transmitting section that transmits display process data; an operation data receiving section that receives operation data; a virtual user position changing section that changes a virtual user position; a data updating section that updates the identification data; a relationship building section that transmits relevant information regarding a virtual user other than a target virtual user; and an attribute information storing section. The relationship building section sets a screening area covering a predetermined distance from the virtual position of the target virtual user. Also, the relationship building section selects a virtual user with a higher level from among at least one other virtual user in the screening area and transmits relevant information regarding the other virtual user thus selected.
