A screen generation process is provided that generates a game screen having disposed thereon multiple selectable objects that a player is allowed to select; an acceptance process that accepts the selection operation input on said selectable objects when the pointing location initially arrives at the location of a selectable object disposed on the game screen while the movement of the pointing location on the game screen is maintained by the player's operations, and said acceptance process accepts the selection operation input in a sequential manner, starting with the selectable object at which the pointing location arrives the earliest; and a special effect generation process that generates special effects in the course of a game driven by the player's operations based on the moment when the pointing location initially arrives at the location of the selectable object, and/or the order of acceptance of the selection operation input on the selectable objects.
