A game machine includes a game progress controller, a main image display controller, a supplementary information generator, and a sub-image display controller. The game progress controller accepts operational information entered from a touch panel and from other game machines and successively obtains tile objects representing tiles of individual players. The main image display controller defines arrangement zones for the tile objects representing the tiles of the individual players within a main screen area, displays the tile objects so that patterns of tile objects of a primary player are visually recognizable, and substitutes the tile objects obtained by drawing actions for specified ones of the tile objects. The supplementary information generator generates supplementary information regarding the tile objects that are displayed in a visually recognizable fashion. The sub-image display controller displays the supplementary information in a sub-screen area located adjacent to the main screen area.
