The game device may also comprise a characteristics value storing module for storing characteristics values relating to the output device for each of the identification symbols; a reading module for reading out characteristics values corresponding to an identification symbol input by a player from the characteristics value storing module; and setting module for setting the characteristics of the output device on the basis of the characteristics values thus read out.
