PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a music intended type game allowed to use network distribution and a music information recording medium on the market such as music CD on the market as the original data of game music. SOLUTION: In this game device 10 designed for a player to operate a controller 32 in conformity to game music, a game program and game data are stored in a CD-ROM 25. The game data includes operation timing data necessary when using music recorded in a specified music CD 23 on the market, as game music. A CD-ROM reader 24 reads the recorded contents of the music CD 23 on the market, and if it is the same as the music CD 23 on the market, music based on the recorded contents is reproduced as the game music, and a guidance display is made by a monitor 18 on the basis of the operation timing. The player is thereby guided to his or her timing to operate the controller 32 in conformity to the game music.
