Abstract

Provided is one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media including computer-program instructions, which when executed by a system, cause the system to: cause a terminal device to display, in a first area of a game screen of a game, a plurality of items associated with progress of the game in such a manner that at least some of the plurality of items are excluded from a first view; extract a specific item from the plurality of items, based on a status of the game; cause the terminal device to display, in the game screen, the specific item in a second area in the first view; and execute an operation based on an item selected from the plurality of items or the specific item.

Claims (52)

1. A system comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine whether a first action satisfies a first condition,

set a specific action, wherein

when it is determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is the first action,

when it is not determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is a second action different from the first action,

display, on a first area of a game screen, a part of a plurality of actions a game character operated by a player can execute, wherein the part of the plurality of actions displayed are selectable by a user,

display, on a second area of the game screen different from the first area, the specific action, wherein the specific action displayed is selectable by the user,

in response to a selection of an action displayed in the first area by the user, execute the selected action by the game character,

in response to a selection of the specific action displayed in the second area by the user, execute the specific action by the game character, and

in response to the first condition not being satisfied, display a third action different from the first action as the specific action on the second area.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the first action is an action selected by the user and executed by the game character operated by the user.

3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to store an action selected by the user and executed by the game character in a memory as the first action.

4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the first condition includes at least one of:

a condition that a rest number of times of the first action selectable by the player is one or more; and

a condition that a value of a parameter associated with the game character is more than a lower limit value of the parameter necessary for executing the first action.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the specific action is set based on a number of times of each of the plurality of actions being selected.

6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein an action selected by the player last time among the first action is set as the specific action.

7. A method comprising:

determining whether a first action satisfies a first condition;

setting a specific action, wherein

when it is determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is the first action,

when it is not determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is a second action different from the first action;

displaying, on a first area of a game screen, a part of a plurality of actions a game character operated by a player can execute, wherein the part of the plurality of actions displayed are selectable by a user;

displaying, on a second area of the game screen different from the first area, the specific action, wherein the specific action displayed is selectable by the user;

in response to a selection of an action displayed in the first area by the user, executing the selected action by the game character;

in response to a selection of the specific action displayed in the second area by the user, executing the specific action by the game character; and

in response to the first condition not being satisfied, displaying a third action different from the first action as the specific action on the second area.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the first action is an action selected by the user and executed by the game character operated by the user.

9. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising storing an action selected by the user and executed by the game character in a memory as the first action.

10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the first condition includes at least one of:

a condition that a rest number of times of the first action selectable by the player is one or more; and

a condition that a value of a parameter associated with the game character is more than a lower limit value of the parameter necessary for executing the first action.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the specific action is set based on a number of times of each of the plurality of actions being selected.

12. The method according to claim 7 , wherein an action selected by the player last time among the first action is set as the specific action.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including computer executable instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:

determining whether a first action satisfies a first condition;

setting a specific action, wherein

when it is determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is the first action,

when it is not determined that the first condition is satisfied, the specific action is a second action different from the first action;

displaying, on a first area of a game screen, a part of a plurality of actions a game character operated by a player can execute, wherein the part of the plurality of actions displayed are selectable by a user;

displaying, on a second area of the game screen different from the first area, the specific action, wherein the specific action displayed is selectable by the user;

in response to a selection of an action displayed in the first area by the user, executing the selected action by the game character;

in response to a selection of the specific action displayed in the second area by the user, executing the specific action by the game character; and

in response to the first condition not being satisfied, displaying a third action different from the first action as the specific action on the second area.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the first action is an action selected by the user and executed by the game character operated by the user.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , further comprising storing an action selected by the user and executed by the game character in a memory as the first action.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the first condition includes at least one of:

a condition that a rest number of times of the first action selectable by the player is one or more; and

a condition that a value of a parameter associated with the game character is more than a lower limit value of the parameter necessary for executing the first action.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the specific action is set based on a number of times of each of the plurality of actions being selected.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein an action selected by the player last time among the first action is set as the specific action.
