Original Abstract Submitted
A first game apparatus is associated with a first communication group in response to a first matching request. The first game apparatus starts first game processing of moving a first character. When a second matching request is made from a second game apparatus, if a difference in date and time between the second matching request and the first matching request is within a first predetermined time, the second game apparatus is preferentially associated with the first communication group. The second game apparatus starts second game processing in a state where a third character is placed at a position corresponding to a position of the first character. The first game apparatus places a fourth character at a position corresponding to a position of the second character without changing a progress status of first game processing.
