An information processing system comprises a computer configured to execute: setting a first area and a second area as areas in which game media of a first player are disposed, the second area being different from the first area; setting a third area and a fourth area as areas in which game media of a second player are disposed, the fourth area being different from the third area; displaying the game media disposed in the first area, the second area, and the fourth area in an identifiable manner; displaying the game media disposed in the third area in an unidentifiable manner; setting a game medium disposed in the first area as a first base medium; setting a game medium disposed in an area where game media of the first player are disposed as a first material medium, the area being an area other than the second area; and fusing the first material medium with the first base medium to change the ability of the first base medium, while deleting the first material medium or changing the ability thereof.

An electronic device 10 is an electronic device that includes a display device 13 and that executes a game, the electronic device having: a game control unit 23 that executes content of the game and that makes the display device 13 display a screen related to the content; and a determination unit 24 that determines whether a release condition for allowing second content different from first content to be executable has been satisfied, on the basis of execution of the first content performed by the game control unit 23. The display device 13 displays a screen related to the second content while displaying a main screen G1 related to the first content, in the case where the determination unit 24 determines that the release condition has been satisfied.

Provided is a video distribution system with which it is possible to improve the motivation of participants with respect to an event that is distributed as a recorded video. A video distribution system is connected via a network to user terminal devices, and distributes a recorded video obtained by recording status of a game event in which a plurality of participants participating therein, to the user terminal devices. And the video distribution system increases the prize money amount set for the game event according to selection of an amount increase option executed by each user via the user terminal device so as to be associated with the recorded video, and decides the individual prize money amount to be awarded to a target participant P based on the prize money amount at the end of a predetermined period.
