ABSTRACT:
To provide a game device for producing, in a preferred mode with relatively simple processing, a picture in which a predetermined game event occurs as a result of involvement in multiple contacts. A contact determination unit (74) determines whether or not a predetermined contact condition is satisfied, based on the positions of the contact evaluation target object and the contacting candidate object. A contact evaluation point calculating unit (76) calculates, when it is determined that the predetermined contact condition is satisfied, a contact evaluation point of the contact evaluation target object, based on a state of at least one of the contact evaluation target object and the contacting candidate object in the virtual three dimensional space. A contact evaluation point cumulative value storage unit (78) stores the cumulative value of the contact evaluation point. A game event generation unit (injury event control unit (80)) generates a predetermined game event in association with the contact evaluation target object with a probability based on the cumulative value of the contact evaluation point of the contact evaluation target object.
