A game device acquires gazing position information relating to a position where a game player is gazing at a game screen, and a first determination unit determines whether or not the game player is aware of a game character based on the gazing position information and a position of the game character. A second determination unit determines whether or not the game character is aware of a virtual viewpoint or an operation subject of the game player based on the position and a sight line of the game character and a position of the virtual viewpoint or the operation subject of the game player. An action control unit causes the game character to perform an action corresponding to the gazing position information or a predetermined action based on determination results obtained by the first determination unit and the second determination unit.
