ABSTRACT:
A pleasure ride device which can give an impression close to that of riding and controlling a real animal is provided. The pleasure ride device comprises a model animal device having the form of a model horse, with a main part rocked longitudinally by a straddling player, and controlling the horse in virtual space, and a computing means which, based on the rocking angle and a predetermined game program computes and shows on a display a virtual space in which the horse appears. The computing means, based on the detected rocking angle, computes the motion acceleration for each rocking cycle of the model animal device, and for each rocking cycle of the model animal device, accelerates the horse in time with the hooves hitting the ground.
