Abstract
A video game program that allows a player to be involved in numerically setting a control value for controlling developments of an RPG is provided. The game program sets an initial range “1 to 5”, causes a computer to sequentially display numerical values in the set range for every fixed time, determines whether operation input is received from a keypad, if operation input is received form the keypad, compares operation input timing with display timing of each numerical value, detects a numerical value that is displayed at timing coinciding with the operation input timing, and sets the detected numerical value as a value of attacking power or recovery power. Therefore, a value of an attacking power or a recovery power is variably set according to timing of operation input performed by a player, and various game developments are provided for each player.
