Abstract

The present invention provides a game providing device that generates image information including a plurality of objects that are capable of being selected by the player; sets a processing method of each of the objects; receives a selection of an object or a plurality of objects from among the objects; and performs the processing method set for the selected object.

Claims (26)

1. A server device that provides an electronic game between a player and an opposing player to a client device, the server device comprising:

an image information generating unit that generates image information, the image information including information associated with a plurality of attack objects that are capable of being selected by a user associated with the player and are used within the electronic game to cause damage to the opposing player;

a selection receiving unit that receives a selection by the player of a plurality of attack objects from among the plurality of attack objects;

a setting unit that sets a damage amount to give to the opposing player for each of the selected attack objects by stochastically determining damage amounts for the selected attack objects after the selection receiving unit has received the selection of the attack objects;

a processing unit that processes an attack on the opposing player using the damage amount given to the opposing player stochastically set by the setting unit; and

an image display unit that causes the client device to display an image indicating the damage amount given to the opposing player.

2. The server device according to claim 1 , wherein the setting unit sets the damage amount to give to the opposing player for each of the selected attack objects by stochastically selecting a damage identifier from a database that relates damage identifiers to a type of attack damage to give to the opposing player.

3. The server device according to claim 1 , wherein the selection receiving unit is capable of receiving a selection of a number of the attack objects corresponding to a previously stored consumption point.

4. The server device according to claim 1 , wherein the setting unit increases the damage amount to give to the opposing player according to the damage amount for the attack object previously selected in the selection receiving unit.

5. The server device according to claim 4 , wherein the image information generating unit further generates image data including a backup character according to the set damage amount to give to the opposing player for the selected attack object.

6. The server device according to claim 1 that is connectable to a plurality of clients, comprises a backup receiving unit configured to receive a backup from the client, and increases the damage point of the selected attack object when receiving the backup.

7. The server device according to claim 6 , wherein the image information generating unit further generates image data including a backup character when the game providing device has received the backup.

8. The server device according to claim 6 that performs a predetermined process on a player using a client doing the backup when receiving the backup.

9. The server device according to claim 1 that is connectable to a plurality of clients, and transfers information about an opponent character of a player using one of the clients to a player using other clients among the clients.

10. A method for providing an electronic game between a player and an opposing player, the method comprising:

generating image information, the image information including information associated with a plurality of attack objects that are capable of being selected by a user associated with the player and are used within the electronic game to cause damage to the opposing player;

receiving a selection by the player of a plurality of attack objects from among the plurality of objects; and

setting a damage amount to give to the opposing player for each of the selected attack objects by stochastically determining damage amounts for the selected attack objects after the selection receiving unit has received the selection of the attack objects;

processing an attack on the opposing player using the damage amount given to the opposing player stochastically set by the setting unit; and

displaying an image indicating the damage amount given to the opposing player.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a game program for causing a computer to perform operations the operations comprising:

generating image information, the image information including information associated with a plurality of attack objects that are capable of being selected by a user associated with the player and are used within the electronic game to cause damage to the opposing player;

receiving a selection by the player of a plurality of attack objects from among the plurality of attack objects; and

setting a damage amount to give to the opposing player for each of the selected attack objects by stochastically determining damage amounts for the selected attack objects after the selection receiving unit has received the selection of the attack objects;

processing an attack on the opposing player using the damage amount given to the opposing player stochastically set by the setting unit; and

displaying an image indicating the damage amount given to the opposing player.
