Abstract
To provide a game device which can allow a user to feel that an operation subject character loses its balance in a case where the operation subject character hits a moving object in such a state where the operation subject player character is located at a position comparatively far from the moving object in a sport game in which the operation subject character hits the moving object according to a predetermined operation by the user. Determination means () determines whether or not the moving object is positioned in a decision area which is set based on a position of the operation subject character in a case where the predetermined operation is performed. Operation-subject-character control means () causes the operation subject character to hit the moving object in a case where it is determined that the moving object is positioned in the decision area. Decision area control means () controls a size of the decision area after the moving object is hit, based on a position of the moving object at a reference time based on at least one of a time at which the predetermined operation is performed and a time at which the operation subject character hits the moving object.
