Abstract
A game device for performing a game such that, when a first-choice display object is freely chosen via a pointing operation performed by a player from among a large number of display objects, a second-choice object is then required to be determined as a correct choice. The game device includes a determining means determining whether or not the display object of interest has been chosen based on position coordinates input from an input means and a choice determination range. The game device also includes a correcting means performing, when the correct second-choice object has been determined, correction processing for changing the size of a choice determination range for a display object of interest used for the determination processing so that the choice determination range for a correct choice display object becomes relatively larger than the choice determination range for an incorrect choice display object.
