Abstract
In a communication system including a server and a plurality of communication terminals capable of communication with the server, based on a variety of parameters indicating the status of a space formed within a game playable by the user of each communication terminal over the communication system, the server transmits advisory information, which suggests the next action for the space, to the communication terminal. The communication terminal displays a screen including the received advisory information.
Claims17
A server comprising:
- a memory configured to store plural parameters related to a status of a virtual space in a game for each user of a plurality of users having a plurality of communication terminals;
- and
- a controller configured to
- make a determination of a first action which has not been taken related to a first virtual space of a first user during the game, the determination being made based on at least two of the plural parameters related to the status of the first virtual space of the first user, wherein the plural parameters include a parameter related to a development of the first virtual space and a number of previous actions already taken related to the first virtual space,
- generate information related to the first action, the information identifying the first action as required in order to raise the parameter related to the development of the first virtual space,
- transmit the generated information related to the first action to a first communication terminal of the first user for display of the information, and
- cause a first screen including the generated information to be displayed on the first communication terminal.

A communication terminal comprising:
- a controller configured to receive information related to a first action which has not been taken related to a first virtual space of a first user during a game, the information being generated by a server based on a determination of the first action, the server communicating with a plurality of communication terminals for a plurality of users, wherein
- the determination is made based on at least two of plural parameters related to a status of the first virtual space of the first user, the plural parameters including a parameter related to a development of the first virtual space and a number of previous actions already taken related to the first virtual space, and
- the information identifies the first action as required in order to raise the parameter related to the development of the first virtual space;
- and
- a display configured to display a first screen including the generated information.

A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having stored thereon instructions to be executed on a computer of a first communication terminal of a first user, the instructions causing the computer to perform the steps of:
- communicating with a server that communicates with a plurality of communication terminals for a plurality of users including the first communication terminal of the first user;
- receiving information related to a first action which has not been taken related to a first virtual space of the first user during a game, the information being generated by the server based on a determination of the first action, wherein
- the determination is made based on at least two of plural parameters related to a status of the first virtual space of the first user, the plural parameters including a parameter related to a development of the first virtual space and a number of previous actions already taken related to the first virtual space, and
- the information identifies the first action as required in order to raise the parameter related to the development of the first virtual space;
- and
- displaying a first screen including the generated information.

A method comprising:
- storing plural parameters related to a status of a virtual space in a game for each of a plurality of users;
- making a determination of a first action which has not been taken related to a first virtual space of a first user during the game, the determination being made based on at least two of the plural parameters related to the status of the first virtual space of the first user, wherein the plural parameters include a parameter related to a development of the first virtual space and a number of previous actions already taken related to the first virtual space;
- generating information related to the first action, the information identifying the first action as required in order to raise the parameter related to the development of the first virtual space;
- and
- causing a first screen including the generated information to be displayed.

A method comprising:
- storing plural parameters related to a status of a virtual town in a game for each of a plurality of users;
- making a determination of a first action which has not been taken related to a first virtual town of a first user during the game, the determination being made based on at least two of the plural parameters related to the status of the first virtual town of the first user, wherein the plural parameters include a parameter related to a development of the first virtual town and a number of previous actions already taken related to the first virtual town;
- generating information related to the first action, the information identifying the first action as required in order to raise the parameter related to the development of the first virtual town;
- and
- causing a first screen including the generated information to be displayed.
