Abstract

Provided is a game device capable of notifying a player of the timing for observing individual display units without ruining the game-world view. A game device comprising a first display unit (113) for displaying a, first image in conformity with the game progress and a second display unit (39) for displaying a second image corresponding to the first image further comprises perceptive stimulation elements (34-37) for stimulating the perception of the player operating the game device. In consideration of the game progress, when it is desired for the player to observe the second display unit (39), the perspective stimulation elements (34-37) are individually activated in order to stimulate the perception of the player operating the game device. The player learns the display of individual information by sound or vibration.
