Abstract: An example of an information processing system displays a character based on a character model of a first type in a first scene in the game, and based on a character model of a second type in a second scene. In a third scene, a wearable item is selected in response to a selection instruction. In the third scene, the character based on the character model of the first type having the appearance of wearing the selected wearable item is displayed, and the character based on the character model of the second type having the appearance of wearing the wearable item is displayed. When a confirm instruction is given, settings regarding the appearance of the character are changed so as to reflect the wearable item on the appearance of the character in the first scene and the second scene.

Abstract: An example of an information processing system sets a room in a virtual space based on an operation input provided by a player and places an item object in the room.

Abstract: A user breeds a virtual life form by practicing good sleep habits and stays motivated toward practicing good sleep habits while enjoying breeding the virtual life form. A game server manages progress of a breeding game of a virtual life form, the game server including circuitry configured to acquire sleep data that at least includes a sleep pattern indicating a bedtime and a wake-up time of a user; store the acquired sleep data as a sleep history; and update the breeding game based on the sleep pattern in the sleep history.

Abstract: An information processing device includes processing circuitry configured to detect that a user holding a specific item or a user associated with specific information is located around a costume; and a cause a performance unit of the costume to perform a specific performance in response to the detection or notify an actor wearing the costume of information on the user associated with the specific information.

Abstract: A user breeds a virtual life form by practicing good sleep habits and stays motivated toward practicing good sleep habits while enjoying breeding the virtual life form. A game server manages progress of a breeding game of a virtual life form, the game server including circuitry configured to acquire sleep data that at least includes a sleep pattern indicating a bedtime and a wake-up time of a user; store the acquired sleep data as a sleep history; and update the breeding game based on the sleep pattern in the sleep history.

Abstract: A game system encouraging a user to have an appropriate sleep habit is provided. For example, a game program causes a processor to execute: a first step of accepting designation of a first time frame that is a target for taking sleep from a user; a second step of setting a second time frame not coinciding with the first time frame in relation with the designated first time frame; a third step of acquiring first information about sleep taken by the user; and a fourth step of performing game control on the basis of the first information, in which, in the fourth step, the game control is performed in accordance with whether or not sleep is taken in the second time frame regardless of whether a result of sleep of the user is appropriate for the first time frame on the basis of the first information.

Abstract: A system having a radio-frequency-identification (RFID) tag reader and a camera to map playing cards to RFID tag values. Each card is inserted into a sleeve that has an RFID tag. During or after insertion of a card into a sleeve, the camera captures an image of the card and the RFID reader captures an RFID tag value for the sleeve. The identity of the card is then determined from the captured image and mapped to the RFID tag value. This mapping information is generated for each card-sleeve pair in a card deck and utilized to track the movement of the cards during game play. The RFID tag value of each card-sleeve pair in the card deck is captured before and after a player draws a card from the deck. The missing RFID tag values are compared to the mapping information to identify which cards where drawn by the player.

Abstract: A game system, a game method, and a game program, which allow the user to enjoy a game with peace of mind even if a bias is provided in predetermined parameters. The game system is configured to acquire, as available environment information indicating an available environment for a game to be executed on a user terminal used by the user, information indicating a type of an operating system (OS); and determine a parameter to be used to provide a content to the user each time the user performs an input operation on the basis of the information indicating the type of the OS associated with the user at the time of the input operation.
