    摘要: A game device for reducing the processing load of a redraw process, including a storage module storing game content information associated with identification information for one or more users, and a module for processing a lottery, in which multiple types of game contents may each be associated with an index value corresponding to the relative values of the types of game contents. The module for processing the lottery may include a module for executing redrawing that may execute new lottery processing for drawing, via the lottery, a type of game content that differs from game content drawn by a first lottery process, when the game content drawn by the first lottery process related to one user's identification information is associated with an index value which is equal to or greater than a predetermined standard value, and when said game content has a predetermined relationship with the game content information related to the user's identification information.

    摘要: Provided is a social game capable of, when a new group is created, allowing such a group to progress a game smoothly. A server device that provides a game, in which a plurality of players can participate, is connected to terminal devices operated by the players via a communication line, and comprises: an information storage unit; and a control unit. The information storage unit stores information on a first group, in which the players participate, and information on a second group, in which the players are supposed to participate; the control unit receives notification on acceptance of participation in the second group from the terminal devices, and when it is determined that the number of players in the second group reaches a certain number, stores the second group as a new first group at the information storage unit.

    摘要: Players with a wide range of levels or attack strength can enjoy a time-limited group battle, and the participation rate can be expected to improve throughout the set time slot. A battle time managing unit refers to a timer and a memory resource to manage the time of a battle between groups. A battle condition extraction unit refers to the memory resource and checks whether to change a battle condition during the time of the battle. A target changing unit refers to the memory resource to set a target of change based on the battle condition. A battle condition changing unit changes the battle condition for the target of change that was selected by the target changing unit. Based on the changed battle condition, a battle rendering unit executes rendition processing for the game related to the battle.

    摘要: During execution of a game, a user terminal sends, to a first server, a message sending request for sending a message without specifying a recipient. Responsive to receiving the message sending request, the first server selects a user specified as the recipient of the message. The first server sends, to a second server, a message sending request for sending the message while specifying the selected user as the recipient and indicating a game management account as a sender.

    摘要: A system obtains a use condition for restricting use of an application in a first client device of a first user. The system obtains a use status of the application in the first client device. Responsive to the use status not satisfying the use condition, the system sends a notification to a second client device of a second user different from the first user, and/or restricts the use of the application in the first client device.

    摘要: A processing device that causes a virtual-space image to be displayed on a display device mounted on a player's head is provided with a first display processor and a second display processor. The first display processor causes first external information input from outside to be displayed on a specified object included in the virtual-space image when the virtual-space image is being caused to be displayed by the HMD. The second display processor causes second external information that is second external information input from outside and includes a real-space image to be displayed along with the virtual-space image when the virtual-space image is caused to be displayed by the HMD. The virtual-space image is, for example, the virtual-space image of a game, and the real-space image is, for example, an image imaged by an imaging device installed in the surroundings of the player.
