  • Publication number: 20140349770
    Abstract: An information processing device according to the present invention includes: a storage unit configured to store possessed character information that is information related to characters possessed by a player and a game parameter indicating an accumulation state of points possessed by the player in association with the player; a character selection unit configured to select a main character and a sub character from among the characters possessed by the player; a point accumulation unit configured to accumulate points by updating the possessed character information so that the sub character selected by the character selection unit is made into a character not possessed by the player and by adding the number of points corresponding to the sub character to the game parameter; and a parameter varying unit configured to vary a parameter set to the main character by causing the points accumulated by the point accumulation unit to be consumed.
