A processing apparatus includes: an input interface configured to receive from a user an input for controlling a movement route of a virtual object arranged in a virtual game space; a memory configured to store arrangement information in the virtual game space and computer readable instructions, the arrangement information being associated with the virtual object; a display configured to display predetermined information; and a processor configured to arrange the virtual object at a predetermined position in the virtual game space based on the arrangement information stored in the memory, calculate a predicted route, along which the virtual object will move from the predetermined position, based on the input via the input interface, and output the predicted route to the display.

Processing device, program, and method

A terminal device includes a display for displaying first and second objects, a memory for storing computer-readable instructions and object attribute information of the first and second objects, and a processor for executing configured to execute the computer-readable instructions. The processor selects one of the first objects, moves the selected first object to another position, and display the second object on the display at an arrangement position of an adjacent series of ones of the first objects when the object attribute information of the adjacent series of ones of the first objects have a predetermined relationship.

Terminal device for game application using various objects with object attribute information

A system for controlling progress of an electronic game by determining attack power of one or more characters constituting an ally team on the basis of a first player operating a plurality of objects disposed on a board formed by m rows and n columns and displayed on a display unit, applying the attack with the attack power to one or more characters constituting an enemy team, and varying the remaining value of a physical strength parameter related to the character constituting the enemy team. The system can a placement control unit that displays a board including objects operated by the first player superimposed with objects operated by the second player, wherein an order of the superimposition and a display size of the board is varied in accordance with a progress of the electronic game.

Device and method for determining attack power based on operating objects disposed on a board

When small blocks are cleared by an object clearance controller () in any one of game fields, a field movement controller () causes the game fields to move in accordance with the number of the cleared small blocks. The game field in which the small blocks are cleared is caused to move away from a game end determination line while the other game field(s) is caused to move closer to the game end determination line. Thus, a puzzle game is realized, which implements a new display configuration and thereby improves a player's interest. Further, the player is able to intuitively grasp his/her lead over the opponent in the course of a battle.

Puzzle game apparatus, program and method

A block game program and a block game apparatus that can improve interest therein by using a new block removal method and a new block movement method are achieved. The game program sequentially produces blocks in a playing field displayed on a display screen to form a block group. The game program causes the game apparatus to function as a mouse that receives an operation, and a block removal control unit that removes blocks satisfying a removal condition from among the block group in accordance with timing at which the mouse receives an operation.
