A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured to operate a game program. The program may cause an information processing device to execute a step of storing information relating to a game part, a step of displaying a screen including a first interface capable of detecting a first user operation, a determination step of (if the first user operation is detected) determining a mode of the game part to be one of a first mode or a second mode, a change step of changing a part of the screen according to the mode of the game part determined in the determination step, and an execution step of executing the game part in the mode determined in the determination step.

A video game control server controls progress of a video game via a communication network. The video game is carried out by video game control apparatuses respectively operated by a plurality of players. Progress status information indicating a status of progress of the video game for each of the plurality of players is stored in a progress status information storer. By referring to the status of the progress of the video game for each of the plurality of players, it is determined whether the number of players who satisfy a predetermined achievement condition of the plurality of players belonging to a group reaches a predetermined number or not. A special game is caused to start in a case where the number of satisfied players reaches the predetermined number. The special game is played by the players of the predetermined number who satisfy the predetermined achievement condition.

A first user device is provided. Via the user interface a first computer implemented game within a messaging application can be selected. The first computer implemented game is related, but different, to second computer implemented game. Game play in one of the first and second computer implemented game is dependent on game play in the other of the first and second computer implemented games.

A dynamic quest-based experience system of an amusement park includes a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to cause the processor to receive a user input from a computing device indicative of starting a dynamic quest-based narrative, in which the dynamic quest-based narrative includes a plurality of sets of information. The instructions further cause the processor to place an identifier associated with the computing device in a virtual queue associated with a narrative endpoint of the amusement park, select a set of information from the plurality of sets of information based on a determined parameter, wherein the set of information is associated with a requested task, and output the set of information to the computing device.

The present invention relates to a method of unlocking an information device, such as a smart phone, applying a touch screen as an input-output means, in which a game progressed by a gesture or the like performed on the touch screen 11 is implemented on an unlock screen, and the locking state of the corresponding information device is released as the game is progressed. Through the present invention, it is possible to induce interest a user and satisfy an aesthetic sense of the user in the unlocking process by getting out of a stereotyped conventional method of unlocking a touch screen 11 information device, which is focused only on functional factors.

According to an aspect of this specification, there is described a computer implemented method comprising: receiving input data, the input data comprising data relating to a user of a computer game; generating, based on the input data, one or more candidate challenges for the computer game; determining, using a machine-learned model, whether each of the one or more of the candidate challenges satisfies a threshold condition, wherein the threshold condition is based on a target challenge difficultly; in response to a positive determination, outputting the one or more candidate challenges that satisfy the threshold condition for use in the computer game by the user.
