Abstract
The invention provides a game that is played in such a manner that game situation information of a game advanced by a game computation is transmitted to a player's portable telephone, and that game instruction information of the player is received from the portable telephone to advance the game according to the received game instruction information. The game situation information is provided to the player by a voice sound or an image through a sound output or display section of the portable telephone or a sound output or display section of a portable game machine connected to the portable telephone. If the player performs no operation with an arcade game machine prior to the passage of a given time period after the transmission of the game situation information, player's game conditions will be disadvantageously changed. If a player terminates the game, the game will be continuously advanced within a game space.
