Abstract: An image data generator of this game apparatus generates, in a combat state, combat image data to display player's combat elements that executes a combat and opponent's combat elements fighting with the player's combat elements on the display unit in real time. This game comprises a distance detector that detects a distance between the player's combat element and the opponent's combat element at the time of changing a normal state to the combat state, and displays an initial image at the beginning of the combat state in accordance with the distance therebetween.

Abstract: A method of expressing, in an easily visible manner, a game proceeded in a plurality of game fields formed hierarchically, in which at least first and second game fields are hierarchically formed in a three-dimensional virtual space. With this method, games proceeding simultaneously and in parallel in upper and lower spaces are displayed in the respective fields as seen from a viewpoint in the space.

Abstract: It is an object of this invention to provide a method of expressing, in an easily visible manner, a game proceeded in a plurality of game fields formed hierarchically. At least first and second game fields are hierarchically formed in a three-dimensional virtual space. It is possible to enjoy games proceeded simultaneously and in parallel in upper and lower spaces by displaying the proceeds of the games in the respective fields as seen from a viewpoint in the space.
