System and method for providing game utilizing real-world environmental information, and recording medium storing program executing the method

A method of providing a game by a system, the method comprising:

• providing an accessed client terminal with a client program;
• and causing a game in a virtual reality world matched to a real world to be executed through the client program,
• wherein the client program includes a matching table between (i) geographical information and environmental information of the real world at a location corresponding to a GPS value of the client terminal, and (ii) a virtual geographical space, objects, and quests constituting a virtual reality world of the game,
• wherein the causing of the game to be executed includes:
• the client terminal receiving geographical information and two or more types of real-world environmental information of a current location corresponding to the GPS value from a map server and an API server, and executing, based on the stored matching table, a virtual reality world configuration that is composed of a virtual geographical space matched to the geographical information of the current location and objects and quests matched to the two or more types of current real-world environmental information, and that interacts with a player,
• wherein interaction available game environment configuration elements matched according to the real-world environmental information of the current location include a type, function, performance, and number of objects, and a type and number of quests,
• wherein the virtual geographical space, objects, and quests of the game are generated according to real-time geographical information and environmental information of the current location of the client terminal, and game play is executed, and
• wherein, according to real-time changes in environmental information, one or more of a type, function, performance, and number of objects in the virtual geographical space are changed, and a type or number of in-game quests are changed.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program executing a game providing method,

• wherein the game providing method comprises:
• storing, by a client terminal, a matching table between (i) geographical information and environmental information of the real world at a location corresponding to a GPS value of the client terminal, and (ii) a virtual geographical space, objects, and quests constituting a virtual reality world of the game;
• receiving, by the client terminal, geographical information and two or more types of real-world environmental information of a current location corresponding to the GPS value from a map server and an API server;
• and
• executing, by the client terminal, based on the matching table, a virtual reality world configuration that is composed of a virtual geographical space matched to the geographical information of the current location and objects and quests matched to the two or more types of current real-world environmental information, and that interacts with a player,
• wherein the interaction available game environment configuration elements matched according to the real-world environmental information of the current location include a type, function, performance, and number of objects, and a type and number of quests,
• wherein the virtual geographical space, objects, and quests of the game are generated according to real-time geographical information and environmental information of the current location of the client terminal, and game play is executed, and
• wherein, according to real-time changes in environmental information, one or more of a type, function, performance, and number of objects in the virtual geographical space are changed, and a type or number of in-game quests are changed.
