Abstract

A game apparatus displays, in response to a manual input, a table of additional abilities, such as a magic art, possessed by an enemy character on a display screen that presents a fight fought between a player character and an enemy character, selects any additional ability from among the additional abilities, acquires the ability from the enemy character as a player character's own ability, and stocks the acquired additional ability for future use, or uses, on the spot, the acquired additional ability as the player character's own ability upon acquisition, in response to a manual input.
