Abstract: A game apparatus can cast various attacks only by pressing a same operating button without performing any complex operation. Attack methods are each provided with a priority, and also may be provided with a positional condition regarding a positional relationship between a player character and an enemy character, for executing an attack on the enemy character by the player character. For example, the positional condition is “less than 3 m from player character” and the attack method is “close attack with ax.” Since the positional condition “less than 3 m from player character” is given priority over an attack according to the positional condition “3 m or more and less than 10 m from player character,” when an attack operation instruction is received, the player character does an attack with an ax on the enemy character present at a distance of less than 3 m.

Abstract: A communication game system is provided in which a first terminal apparatus is configured to be used by a first player and at least one second terminal apparatus is configured to be used by at least one second player.

Abstract: The present invention provides a game apparatus that can cast various attacks only by pressing the same operating button without performing any complex operation. In an attack method setting screen, attack method setting panels are displayed arranged. Each attack method setting panel is provided with a positional condition display area that displays a positional condition regarding the positional relationship between a player character and an enemy character, and an attack method display area that displays an attack method performed on the enemy character by the player character. For example, in the case in which the positional condition is “less than 3 m from player character” and the attack method is a “close attack with ax”, when a player provides an attack operation instruction, the player character does an attack with an ax on an enemy character present at a distance of less than 3 m therefrom.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to provide a game apparatus and a game program, which are capable of more strategically conducting a battle with an enemy character, deepening interest, winning a battle with a formidable enemy even without any level up, and enjoying a game that is rich in strategic feature. When an enemy character starts to attack a player character (step S11), time counting to set a chink occurrence flag starts. When an attack operation of the player character on the enemy character is received (step S12) and the attack hits the enemy character (step S13), it is determined whether or not a chink occurrence flag remains set on the enemy character (step S14). When the chink occurrence flag remains set (YES in step S14), a special effect is generated (step S15).

Abstract: A communication game system which enables a host player to progress a game in collaboration with guest players is provided. Each player using a video game apparatus connected to a server apparatus progresses the game while moving a party including a plurality of player characters on a field. When the party arrives at a predetermined point on a predetermined field, a battle with an enemy character is started. When a player character of the party becomes inoperative in the battle, a player character of another player can participate in the battle by substituting the player character for the inoperative player character by sending a support request. Although there is a time limit allowing the player character of the other player to participate in the battle, the time limit is extended when the player character achieves a predetermined condition in the battle.

Abstract: To reflect a player's degree of skill in a battle between a player character and an enemy character, and increase a strategic element. In the event that a player selects magic as an action of a player character in a battle between a player character and an enemy character, a puzzle battle is started. In the puzzle battle, a magic army (a block frame) is displayed on a display device in accordance with a kind of magic selected, the player moves or rotates a block falling from above the display device by operating an input device, stops it in a desired position, and fills the magic army. In the event that all squares of the magic army are filled with the blocks before a time elapsing from a start of the puzzle battle, displayed on an elapsed time gauge, reaches a prescribed time, the magic selected by the player is unleashed, and inflicts damage on the enemy character. An effectiveness of the magic depends on an overlapping, and a protrusion from the magic army, of the blocks.

Abstract: A cellular phone used to execute a game is connected to a server apparatus when a need arises to transmit or receive information. The game is individually progressed by each cellular phone. A user equips a player character with a material to use a magic in a battle. A party is formed by users of multiple cellular phones and a material possessed by the user belonging to the same party is registered in the server apparatus. When the user transmits a support request to the server apparatus during a battle, the server apparatus returns the support material possessed by other users belonging to the same party. The user of the cellular phone can also use a magic corresponding to the support material in the battle.

Abstract: When support appeal reception information is received from a player terminal, a support appeal information transmitter transmits support appeal information for support appeal to other player terminals than the player terminal. In this case, the other player terminals are positioned within a predetermined range from the current position of the player terminal. In the case where support contents information indicating support contents is received from any of the other player terminals in accordance with the support appeal indicated by the support appeal information, a support appeal reply execution information transmitter transmits support appeal reply instruction execution information for instructing the player terminal to execute the support contents indicated by the received support contents information to the player terminal. The player terminal then executes support from the other player terminals in the executing event on the basis of the received support appeal reply instruction execution information.
