Method, apparatus, computer program and recording medium for providing game service
A method of providing a game service including providing a game program including a game module and a simulation module, the simulation module having same input and output functions as those of the game module, receiving, from a user terminal, a play result including output information of the game module with respect to input information and output information of the simulation module with respect to the input information, and determining whether play is fair based on the output information of the game module and the output information of the simulation module may be provided.
1. A method of providing a game service comprising:
providing, by a server, a game program comprising a game module and a simulation module to a user terminal, the simulation module having same input and output functions as those of the game module;
receiving, by the server, play results comprising first output information of the game module with respect to first input information and second output information of the simulation module with respect to second input information from the user terminal; and
determining, by the server, whether a game play at the game module is played fairly based on the first output information of the game module and the second output information of the simulation module, wherein
the game module is different from the simulation module,
the game module is configured to output the first output information in response to the first input information,
the simulation module is configured to output the second output information in response to the second input information,
the game program is configured such that the first output information and the second output information are same in response to the first input information and the second input information being same,
the simulation module is generated based on the game module such that the simulation module does not include each and every logic of the game module, using a machine learning or a deep learning method, and
the game module is generated such that code reconstruction is possible, and the simulation module is generated such that code reconstruction is not possible.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
updating, by the server, user account information based on the play results, according to a result of the determining; and
outputting, by the server, information based on the result of the determining to the user terminal.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein in response to the result of the determining indicating that the game play at the game module is played fairly,
the updating comprises updating the user account information based on the first output information of the game module, and
the outputting comprises outputting approval information of the game play.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein in response to the result of the determination indicating that the game play at the game module is not played fairly,
the updating comprises storing event information indicating that a user is an abusive user in association with the user account information, and
the outputting comprises outputting an abuse warning message.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein
the game module comprises a graphic element to be displayed on a display of the user terminal and an audio element to be output to a speaker of the user terminal, and
the simulation module does not comprise a graphic element and an audio element.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the game module is executed on a virtual machine of the user terminal and the simulation module is executed on a central processing unit of the user terminal.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the game module and the simulation module are generated using different programming languages.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
configuring the user terminal not to communicate in real-time with the server while the game program is being played on the user terminal.
9. An apparatus for providing a game service, the apparatus comprising:
a memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein; and
at least one processor configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to cause the apparatus to,
provide a game program, the game program including a game module and a simulation module, to a user terminal, the game module and the simulation module being modules having same input and output functions as those of the game module,
receive play results from the user terminal, the play results including first output information of the game module with respect to first input information and second output information of the simulation module with respect to second input information, and
determine whether a game play at the game module is played fairly based on the first output information of the game module and the second output information of the simulation module, wherein
the game module is different from the simulation module,
the game module is configured to output the first output information in response to the first input information,
the simulation module is configured to output the second output information in response to the second input information,
the game program is configured such that the first output information and the second output information are same in response to the first input information and the second input information being same,
the simulation module is generated based on the game module such that the simulation module does not include each and every logic of the game module, using a machine learning or a deep learning method, and
the game module is generated such that code reconstruction is possible, and the simulation module is generated such that code reconstruction is not possible.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to cause the apparatus to,
update user account information based on the play results, according to a result of the determination, and
output information based on the result of the determination to the user terminal.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein in response to the result of the determination indicating that the game play at the game module is played fairly, the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to cause the apparatus to,
update the user account information based on the first output information of the game module, and
output approval information of the game play.
12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein in response to the result of the determination indicating that the game play at the game module is not played fairly, the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to cause the apparatus to,
store event information indicating that a user is an abusive user in association with the user account information, and
output an abuse warning message.
13. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein
the game module comprises a graphic element to be displayed on a display of the user terminal and an audio element to be output to a speaker of the user terminal, and
the simulation module does not comprise a graphic element and an audio element.
14. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the game module is executed on a virtual machine of the user terminal and the simulation module is executed on a central processing unit of the user terminal.
15. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the game module and the simulation module are generated using different programming languages.
16. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a computer program, which when executed by a computer included in the server, configures the server to execute the method of claim 1 .
