An exemplary information processing apparatus arranges, in a virtual three-dimensional space, first to fourth objects, a first connection object connecting the first object and the second object, and a second connection object connecting the third object and the fourth object. The information processing apparatus controls actions of the first object and the second object, with restriction being imposed on movements of the first object and the second object based on the first connection object. Further, the information processing apparatus controls actions of the third object and the fourth object, with restriction being imposed on movements of the third object and the fourth object based on the second connection object. A virtual camera is arranged in the virtual three-dimensional space such that at least one of the third object and the fourth object is included in a field-of-view range of the virtual camera.
