Abstract

The present invention relates to an interactive game controlling method for use in a touch panel device medium. The game includes a virtual hot zone, a virtual display range, at least one self-acting virtual object displayed on the touch panel device. An interactive program that allows users to interact with the virtual object in the virtual hot zone is executed in response to a finger tapping on the virtual hot zone. The method includes the steps of: a) receiving a touch and sensing the motion of the touch; b) moving the virtual display range where the virtual object is included in a direction opposite to the direction which the touch is moving; c) executing the interactive program to allow the user to interact with the virtual object when the virtual object is relocated to the virtual hot zone and the virtual hot zone receives a change in state of touch.
