System, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, method, and information processing apparatus

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with an executable program for execution of a communication game with communication with another apparatus stored thereon, the program causing a computer comprising content data that is available at least in the communication game when at least a predetermined condition is satisfied and a decryption key to perform:

• receiving encrypted data encrypted with an encryption key corresponding to the decryption key from an apparatus among other apparatuses that satisfies the predetermined condition;
• verifying the received encrypted data based on the decryption key;
• and
• temporarily permitting use of the content data in the communication game when verification of the encrypted data is successful while the predetermined condition is not satisfied.

A method of executing a communication game with communication between/among a plurality of terminals, each of the plurality of terminals comprising content data that is available at least in the communication game when at least a predetermined condition is satisfied and a decryption key, the method comprising:

• transmitting, by a first terminal of the plurality of terminals that satisfies the predetermined condition, encrypted data encrypted with an encryption key corresponding to the decryption key to another terminal when the first terminal executes the communication game;
• verifying, by the another terminal, when the another terminal receives the encrypted data from the first terminal, the encrypted data based on the decryption key;
• and
• temporarily permitting, by a second terminal of the plurality of terminals that does not satisfy the predetermined condition, use of the content data in the communication game by the second terminal when verification of the encrypted data received from the first terminal is successful.

An information processing apparatus that executes a communication game with communication with another information processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• content data that is available at least in the communication game when at least a predetermined condition is satisfied;
• and
• a decryption key, wherein
• the one or more processors are programmed to
• verify, when the one or more processors receive encrypted data encrypted with an encryption key corresponding to the decryption key from an information processing apparatus among other information processing apparatuses that satisfies the predetermined condition, the encrypted data based on the decryption key, and
• permit temporary use of the content data in the communication game when verification of the encrypted data is successful while the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
