  • Patent number: 9770650
    Abstract: The game program according to the present invention directs a computer to execute processes whereby a graphic pattern input is accepted in response to a pointing location on a game screen being moved as a result of manipulation by a player; probabilities are calculated, with which a graphic pattern inferred from a pointing location trajectory matches each of respective multiple preset graphic patterns in a state in which the movement of the pointing location is maintained; a graphic pattern satisfying a preset criterion is selected from among the multiple graphic patterns based on the result of calculating a probability of match for each of the graphic patterns; and the action of a player character operated by the player is controlled in accordance with the character action associated with the selected graphic pattern.

  • Publication number: 20070198694
    Abstract: A toy (10) equivalent to a storage medium containing communication start data and identification data is connected to an intermediate connection device (50) having identification data and connected to a PC (20). The PC (20) reads out the communication start data from the toy (10) and reads out identification data respectively from the toy (10) and the intermediate connection device (50). By a communication program started by the communication start data, the PC (20) establishes connection to a server (30) and transmits the read-out identification data to the server (30). The server identifies distribution data corresponding to a combination of the identification data received, according to the data identification table, and transmits the identified distribution data to the PC (20).

  • Publication number: 20070128978
    Abstract: To acquire necessary contents data interlocking with contents stored in a toy, a toy 10 stores identification data and communication start data, and has an external connecting unit, the personal computer 20 reads the identification data and the communication start data when the toy 10 is connected with a personal computer 20, the identification data is automatically transmitted to a server 30 through a network 40 on the basis of the communication start data, the server 30 determines whether the transmitted identification data is registered or not, the server 30 transmits contents data to the personal computer 20 when the identification data is registered, and the server 30 transmits registration application data to the personal computer 20 when the identification data is not registered.
