A computer device which is configured to provide a computer game responsive to user inputs, the computer device having a user interface comprising a display which is configured to display an initial game board of the computer game comprising user actuatable game elements and an avatar element at an initial avatar location of the game board. The gameboard includes an activation element on the game board. An activation condition from an interacting event with the activation element is detected and, responsive to the detection of the activation condition, a path segment extending from the avatar location to a next location on a predetermined path is unlocked. If the path segment is in a first state which permits movement of the avatar element from the avatar location to the next location, the avatar element is automatically moved from the avatar location to the next location without detecting further user input.

Abrégé

A set of levels of a game is displayed and a user selection of one of the levels detected. It is determined that the user is partaking in a fragment collection event, the fragment collection event defining a set of collection conditions, and that one of the collection conditions is satisfied. Fragments are assigned to the user, the fragments having no utility within a game environment, wherein only one collection condition can be satisfied per level selection. A fragment count is stored, where assigning the one or more fragments to the user comprises incrementing the fragment count associated with the user by a predefined amount associated with the satisfied collection condition. When the fragment count is equal to or greater than a threshold fragment count, the fragment count is decreased by an amount equal to the threshold fragment count and a utility object assigned to the user.

A computer device provides a computer implemented game. A display displays game elements in a game board which has tiles. A first type of game element occupy two or more tiles and a second type of game element occupy one tile. The first type of game element has layers with each layer associated with a matching characteristic. A user interface detects user input when a user engages with a game element in a move. At least one processor determines that second game elements having at least one common matching characteristic satisfy a match condition and at least one of those second game elements is adjacent to a first game element. In response, it is determined if that first game element has a layer associated with the common matching characteristic, and if so, causes the layer associated with the common matching characteristic to be removed.

Abrégé

A messaging system for both generating and receiving message data, which breaks up a sent message and displays it as a time sequence of message parts on the receiving user's device. Breaks in the sent message are defined by delimiters, which are inserted into the message data by the user on the generate device and are detected by the receiving device. Delimiters or other part of the message data determine the time period for each part of the message. The first part of the message is displayed on the receiving user's device for the time period associated with that part. Once the time period for the first message part has expired, the next message part is displayed in addition to the preceding part. This continues until the whole sent message is displayed, thus creating a timeline of message parts for the receiving user.

A computer device provides a computer implemented game. A display displays game elements in a game board which has tiles. A first type of game element occupy two or more tiles and a second type of game element occupy one tile. The first type of game element has layers with each layer associated with a matching characteristic. A user interface detects user input when a user engages with a game element in a move. At least one processor determines that second game elements having at least one common matching characteristic satisfy a match condition and at least one of those second game elements is adjacent to a first game element. In response, it is determined if that first game element has a layer associated with the common matching characteristic, and if so, causes the layer associated with the common matching characteristic to be removed.

Abrégé

A computer device having a user interface, a processor, and computer storage. The user interface provides a gameboard comprising tiles supporting game objects, the tiles comprising predefined sets of tiles which are available to support spreading blocking elements. The processor receives a detected user input. If it detects a match condition, the processor removes the game elements of the match condition and generates and displays new game objects to replenish the gameboard. A data structure having tile data is stored in the computer storage. Tile data for tiles of the predefined set(s) comprises a set indicator which indicates whether a tile is in one of the predefined sets. If a blocker spreading mode has been triggered, the processor selects an origin tile which supports a spreading blocking element, identifies a target tile to which the spreading blocking element may spread and generates a blocking element for the target tile.

A computer device comprising a user interface and a processor. A first tier of a whole rewardable object is rendered, each tier of the rewardable object comprising a set of visual objects, each visual object representing a respective game level having an associated game objective. Each visual object is associated with an object status selected from a completed status and a playable status. A completed status is assigned to the visual object when either the user has attained the associated game objective of the game level, or an indication has been received that the associated game objective of the game level has been attained at a remote user device. When all visual objects of the first tier have been assigned a completion status, it is determined that at least one virtual object of the whole rewardable object is not associated with a completed status and a second tier is rendered.

Controlling the display of a computer device to deliver functions of a new type of clicker game, in which a player can control the location at which a booster is created on a game board. This provides a player with many more strategic options over game play because the clearing effects of a booster can be targeted more effectively. A game element which a player selects (clicks) to remove a group of adjacent matching game elements is identified and its location on the game board is ‘reserved’. When the game board refills, the ‘reserved’ location is not refilled, but remains as a ‘soft void’ in which a booster object can be created after refill has taken place. At that point the booster may be activated (automatically or by user interaction).
