An example of an information processing apparatus causes an object displayed on a display device to move based on a drag operation performed by a user. The information processing apparatus acquires input coordinates of the drag operation performed on the object. The information processing apparatus calculates a change amount of the input coordinates from when the drag operation has been started. The object moves based on the input coordinates during the drag operation. The information processing apparatus causes the object to move while performing a correction to make the object away from the input coordinates so that a distance between the input coordinates and coordinates of the object becomes larger in a case where the change amount is large than in a case where the change amount is small.

A game system, on detecting in a first mode that is a mode set at the start of a game that an activation condition of a second mode has been satisfied, changes the first mode to the second mode. After activating the second mode, the game system decreases the number of times that a progress of the game can be reset. When detecting that the number of times has expired, the game system ends the game.

Storage medium, information-processing device, information-processing system, and information-processing method

A game system provides a virtual game space in which plural players play a game. In the virtual game space, if a player object performs a first action on an item appearance area, the game system determines whether a right state of the player object is a first state or a second state, and whether an area state of the item appearance area is a first area state or a second area state. If the right state of the player object is the first state and the area state is the first area state, the game system determines that an item appearance condition is satisfied. If the right state of the player object is the second state or the area state is the second area state, the game system determines that the item appearance condition is not satisfied. If it is determined that the item appearance condition is satisfied, the game system causes a game item to appear in the virtual game space, and changes the right state of the player object to the second state. The area state changes to the first area state if the game item becomes unattainable by player objects.

An example of an information processing apparatus places an object in a virtual space. The information processing apparatus counts, for at least one type of the object, a placement number of the objects placed in the virtual space. The information processing apparatus presents candidates of a clear condition including a condition relating to the object, on the basis of the counted placement number, in a selectable manner for a user. The clear condition is used for determining that a game using the virtual space has been cleared. The information processing apparatus sets a candidate selected by the user, as the clear condition.

If it is determined that the item appearance condition is satisfied, the game system causes a game item to appear in the virtual game space, and changes the right state of the player object to the second state.

An example of an information processing apparatus places, as a component object to be used for collision detection, a slope object having a unit portion in a virtual space. An image representing the virtual space in which the component object is placed is generated. The information processing apparatus places a first slope object having one unit portion in the virtual space, based on a first instruction of the user. The unit portion has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first side and a second side that form an interior angle being an acute angle. The information processing apparatus places a second slope object in the virtual space. The second slope object has a continuous unit portion in which a plurality of the unit portions are connected such that a plurality of the first sides thereof are connected to form a single side.

In a game apparatus, a game program and a web browser program are stored. In a web browser process, a predetermined web page is displayed, first access destination information is acquired on the basis of a user operation, and the first access destination information is outputted to be usable in the game process. In a game process, a server is accessed on the basis of the first access destination information, a predetermined content corresponding to the first access destination information is acquired, and the game process is executed using the predetermined content.

A first accepting unit () of an exemplary server device () accepts from a user an instruction to select one of plural selection targets. A user selecting unit () selects, from among plural users other than the user, another user who has recommended or evaluated the selection target, selection of which has been accepted by the first accepting unit (). A selection target selecting unit () selects one or more selection targets that the other user selected by the user selecting unit () has recommended or evaluated. A presenting unit () presents, to the user, information on the one or more selection targets selected by the selection target selecting unit ().
