Computer-readable recording medium and game system

A game system, comprising:

• a plurality of user terminals each including
• a communication interface, and
• a display;
• and
• a server including
• a communication interface communicating with the communication interface of each of the plurality of user terminals via a communication network, and
• a processor,
• wherein the processor of the server is configured to:
• set, via a setting operation, objects represented by digital content into states in which the objects are transmittable to the plurality of user terminals;
• transmit one of the objects over the communication network from the communication interface of the server to one of the plurality of user terminals, in response to a request transmitted from the one of the plurality of user terminals to the server over the communication network for transmitting the one of the objects from the server to the one of the plurality of user terminals;
• and
• classify a plurality of users into a plurality of groups on a basis of predetermined classification criteria,
• wherein the setting operation includes setting a different object, for each group, to be in a state in which the different object is transmittable to user terminals of the group,
• wherein the setting operation includes setting a predetermined number of the objects represented by the digital content into the stats states in which the objects are transmittable to the plurality of user terminals,
• wherein the predetermined number is shared among users in a same group,
• wherein the setting operation also includes setting for the one of the objects a degree of rarity of the one of the objects, and
• wherein the setting operation further includes setting an upper limit on the predetermined number to become lower as the degree of rarity of the one of the objects becomes higher.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a game program, the game program being executed by a user terminal, the user terminal being in a game system which is realized by a plurality of user terminals and a server, each of the plurality of user terminals including a communication interface and a display, the server including a communication interface communicating with the communication interface of each of the plurality of user terminals via a communication network, the server further including a processor configured to set, via a setting operation, objects represented by digital content into states in which the objects are transmittable to the plurality of user terminals, the game program, when executed by a processor of the user terminal, being configured to receive information from the server, and causing the user terminal to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• displaying one of the objects on the display of the user terminal when the one of the objects is set in a state in which the one of the objects is transmittable to the user terminal;
• and
• transmitting a request to the server over the communication network for transmitting, from the server to the user terminal, the one of the objects displayed on the display of the user terminal,
• wherein the processor of the server is also configured to:
• transmit the one of the objects over the communication network from the communication interface of the server to one of the plurality of user terminals, in response to a request transmitted from the one of the plurality of user terminals to the server over the communication network for transmitting the one of the objects from the server to the one of the plurality of user terminals;
• and
• classify a plurality of users into a plurality of groups on a basis of predetermined classification criteria,
• wherein the setting operation includes setting a different object, for each group, to be in a state in which the different object is transmittable to user terminals of the group,
• wherein the setting operation further includes setting a predetermined number of the objects represented by the digital content into the states in which the objects are transmittable to the plurality of user terminals,
• wherein the predetermined number is shared among users in a same group,
• wherein the setting operation also includes setting for the one of the objects a degree of rarity of the one of the objects, and
• wherein the setting operation further includes setting an upper limit on the predetermined number to become lower as the degree of rarity of the one of the objects becomes higher.
