  The sound / sound effect output program P41 is for outputting various effect sounds and sound effects from the speaker 6 as the game progresses based on the control command and its control data transmitted from the sub-control board Kb. It is a program.

  A program for controlling the operation of each of the control boards Ka, Kb, and Kc is developed using an assembler language, C language, Visual Basic language, or the like, and is a machine language program that can be executed by the CPU 40 of each board. The translated program is stored in the ROM 41 of each control board Ka, Kb, Kc.

  Subsequently, an outline of the game procedure of the above-described sparrow ball gaming machine 1 and the processing of each program accompanying this procedure will be described. One game (game) starts when a player inserts a medal into the medal slot 15, presses the game start button 24, and the automatic layout program P5 distributes 14 hands. Then, one game progresses in accordance with the control of each program that operates based on input signals and control signals generated from various operation buttons and sensors such as the throw-away button 16a,.

  First, when the power of the sparrow ball game machine 1 is turned on, the main board operation control program P1 of the main control board Ka sets the initialization control command when the power is turned on to the sub control board Kb, and the sub control board Kb initializes this. Control commands are transmitted to the image control board Kc. When the sub-control board Kb and the image control board Kc receive this initialization control command, the sub-control board Kb and the image control board Kc initialize the storage area of the RAM 42 in the board Kc, and the initial effect display program P3211 mounted on the image control board Kc Processing such as displaying an effect screen when ON, for example, a landscape screen on the display device 14 is performed.

  When the sub control board Kb receives this initialization control command when the power is turned on, the sub board operation control program P21 stores various image data and sound stored in the ROM 41 of the sub control board Kb as described above. The sound effect data is transmitted to the image control board Kc, and the image board operation control program P31 of the image control board Kc performs a process of storing the received image and sound / sound effect data in the RAM 42.

  When the player inserts a medal into the medal insertion slot 15 and the main board operation control program P1 detects the medal insertion signal, the medal management program P3 performs a process of adding “1” to the medal storage number. Subsequently, when the player presses the game start button 24 and the main board operation control program P1 detects a game start signal from the game start button 24, a game of one game can be started. Then, the main board operation control program P1 transmits a game start control command to the image control board Kc via the sub control board Kb. Based on this control command, the game effect display program P3212 of the image control board Kc displays an effect image at the start of the game on the display device 14 and outputs sound from the speaker 6 by the sound / sound effect output program P41. In this way, one game of the sparrow ball game machine starts.

  Subsequently, under the control of the main board operation control program P1, the automatic layout program P5 is activated to automatically determine the 14 layout patterns necessary for starting the game by program processing. The automatic layout program P5 sequentially stores the 14 symbol codes automatically allocated in the manual storage area of the RAM 42, and then, in a predetermined order, for example, ascending order of symbol codes, that is, insulator, tube, cord , Wind tiles, and ternary tiles are sorted in order (stored) and stored in the manual storage area.

  Subsequently, the automatic layout program P5 transmits the 14 distributed symbol codes together with the control command to the sub-control board Kb. When the sub-board operation control program P21 of the sub-control board Kb receives this distributed symbol code, it stores it in the RAM 42 and transmits these 14 distributed symbol codes to the image control board Kc.

  The sub-board operation control program P21 of the sub-control board Kb uses the disclosed number table to display the number of bags disclosed at the current game place for the 14 game symbols transmitted from the main control board Ka. Process to count. Further, when the game effect display program P3212 on the image control board Kc receives the 14 design codes, the game design display program P3212 displays an image of the design shown in FIG. Processing to display on the display unit 36 is performed. While the 14 automatic arrangements have not been determined, the backside of the cocoon or a non-displayed design is displayed as an initial screen on the manual display unit 35 and the self-displaying unit 36 that displays the self-displayed design. Process to display.

  Subsequently, the special game combination lottery program P6 (which operates when a normal game is being played) and the Dora lottery program P7 are activated, and the winning combination (big The game role) and the chance game right can be acquired (chance game role), and the front and back dramas are determined. Then, each data (coded data) of the big game rising combination and the chance game rising combination, front and back games determined by the processing of these programs P6 and P7 (coded data) is sub-control board Kb To the image control board Kc.

  When the game effect display program P3212 of the image control board Kc receives the code of the rising combination that can acquire the big game combination and the chance game combination, and the design code of the front and back dramas, as shown in FIG. A process of displaying the chance game combination on the big game rising combination display unit 32, the chance increase combination display unit 33, and the front drum on the front drum display unit 29 is performed.

  The main board operation control program P1 starts the game on the display device 14 when the control to display the 14 symbols of the game, the big game combination, the chance game combination, the front drama etc. on the display device 14 is completed. Processing to inform the player that the conditions are complete is displayed on the screen or by voice. Subsequently, the main board operation control program P1 operates the winning determination program P8 to perform a process of determining whether or not the 14 hands that have been automatically arranged have already completed the winning combination. If the winning combination is completed in this determination process, the winning determination program P8 determines the predetermined rising combination and the score (number of acquired medals) that the player can acquire (Table 2). Determine with reference to the data. Subsequently, the winning determination program P8 transmits the winning combination, the score obtained, and the like to the image control board Kc via the sub control board Kb. When the image control board Kc receives the winning combination and the acquired score, the game effect display program P3212 displays the rising combination, the acquired score, and other effect images on the display device 14 for a predetermined time. Perform the process.

  On the other hand, if the 14 symbols of the automatically arranged baskets are not completed and the winning combination is not completed, the main board operation control program P1 is an operation of throwing away one unnecessary basket from the manuals to the player. A control command for performing screen display for prompting is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb. When the image control board Kc receives this control command, the game effect display program P3212 sends a message for prompting the user to discard one unnecessary bag out of the handbook to the rising eye display unit 31 of the display device 14. Process to display. In addition, when displaying the message on the rising eye display unit 31, the voice / sound effect output program P41 may be activated to perform a prompting process together with the voice.

  Subsequently, the player performs an operation of selecting a throwing-in trash from the symbols of the cocoon displayed on the hand-held display unit 35 and the self-displaying unit 36. Then, when the player decides the symbol of the bag to be thrown away, he selects (turns on) any one of the button for discarding buttons 16a, 16b, 16c,. Discard this bag. On the basis of the discarded trash selection signal, the discarded trash determination program P26 stores the symbol code of the trash that has been discarded by performing the discarded trash operation in the discarded trash storage area of the RAM 42 in the main control board Ka. The board operation control program P1 performs a process of deleting 13 symbol codes from the manual stored in the manual storage area of the RAM 42 to make 13 manuals.

  Subsequently, the main board operation control program P1 performs image control via the sub-control board Kb and the sub-control board Kb together with the control command of the discarded design code and 13 design codes. Processing to transmit to the substrate Kc is performed. When the game effect display program P3212 of the image control board Kc receives the symbol code that has been discarded, the symbol code corresponding to the symbol code is displayed on the discard symbol display unit 34, and the symbol codes of the 13 hand rules are displayed. When received, a process of displaying the symbols of the cocoons corresponding to these symbol codes on the hand pallet display unit 35 is performed. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the back side of the bag is displayed on the self-displaying portion 36.

  On the other hand, when the sub-board operation control program P21 of the sub-control board Kb receives the above 13 hand code symbols, the hearing pattern determination program P241, the rising-knot determination program P242 constituting the rising-hook determination program P24, and the rising By operating the wrinkle determination extraction program P243, as described above, it is determined whether or not there is a wrinkle that should be self-recognized next in order to complete the rising hand for the current 13 hands, and the rising hand is completed. When the cocoon is extracted, a process of displaying the design of the cocoon on the rising heel display unit 31 of the display device 14 is performed.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 9, the hearing pattern determination program P241 uses a combination of mahjong tiles obtained by entering a plurality of entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,. It is determined whether or not the listening state is just before the combination is completed (step S1). As a result, when it is not listening, the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S1 that he / she is listening, the rising wrinkle determination extracting means including the rising wrinkle type determination program P242 and the rising wrinkle determination extraction program P243 checks the rising wrinkle in step S2. Do. That is, when the hearing pattern determination program P241 determines that the state is in the listening state, both programs P242 and P243 determine the rising amount necessary for the combination of the mahjong tiles in the hearing state to complete the combination of the above-described set-up roles. And extract.

  In step S3, the total number of shots storage program P26 sequentially counts the number of game balls launched on the game board surface 2 and stores the total number of shots in the RAM 42 of the sub-control board Kb. The program P27 sequentially counts the number of entrances to each of the plurality of entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,... And stores the number of entrances for each entrance into the RAM 42 of the sub control board Kb. Based on the total number of shots stored by the total number of shots storage program P26 and the number of entrances by number of entrances stored by the entrance number storage program P27 stored by the entrance number, Calculate the entrance rate of. Furthermore, if there are a plurality of mahjong tile designs that are determined and extracted as the rising tile necessary for completing the rising combination by the rising basket type determination program P242 and the rising basket determination extraction program P243, the game effect display program P3212 is the program P26. The entrance rate detected by P28 is displayed on the rising eye display unit 31 of the display device 14 together with all the mahjong tiles that have been determined and extracted.

  Here, along with FIG. 10, the detection of the entrance rate by the said programs P26-P28 is demonstrated. That is, in step S10, the number-of-shots storage program P26 sequentially counts and detects the number of game balls launched on the game board surface 2, and the number of shots (= a) is stored in the storage area of the RAM 42 in the sub-control board Kb. To remember.

  Then, in step S11, the number-of-entrances storage program P27 for each entrance detects the number of entrances for each of the plurality of entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,. The number of balls (= b) is stored in the storage area of the RAM 42 in the sub control board Kb.

Subsequently, in step S12, the entrance rate calculation program P28 for each entrance is the total number of shots (= a) stored by the total number storage program P26 and the entrance number stored by the entrance port storage program P27. The entrance rate (= c) for each entrance is calculated based on the number of entrances per entrance (= b). The calculation of the entrance rate (= c) is as follows:
c = b ÷ a × 100
Is done by. Thereby, the entrance rate for each entrance to be displayed on the rising eye display unit 31 is obtained (step S13).

  Then, the game effect display program P3212 displays the symbol of the kite determined to be the kite transmitted from the sub control board Kb and the entrance rate for each entrance into the kite display unit 31, for example, FIG. Or it displays as shown in FIG. In this case, in FIG. 3, “Tsubaki (20,000)” of the eggplant and “West” of the character box are displayed, and the entrance rate to the entrance corresponding to “20,000” Is 12%, and the entrance rate to the entrance corresponding to “West” is displayed as 3%. In FIG. 7, “three cylinders” and “six cylinders” of the cylinder are displayed, and the entrance rate corresponding to “three cylinders” is 11%, and “six cylinders”. The entrance rate to the entrance corresponding to is displayed as 4%.

  Subsequently, the main board operation control program P1 of the main control board Ka operates the game ball management program P4 after the above-described processing related to the player's disposal operation is completed, and sets the game ball to the game ball launch position. Processing to send a ball. Then, the player can operate the game ball launch lever 4 to launch a game ball into the game board surface 2.

  When a player launches a game ball and this game ball enters any of the entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,..., A sensor (not shown) detects the game ball and generates an incoming signal. . The game ball management program P4 decodes the incoming signal and performs a process of storing the symbol code of the kite (self-sucker) corresponding to the entered entrance into the manual storage area. Subsequently, the winning determination program P8 is operated, and it is determined whether or not the 14 hands have been raised and the combination is completed. Then, when the hand is raised and the winning combination is completed, as described above, it is determined what kind of rising role is set in advance and the score that the player can obtain is obtained. A process of transmitting to the image control board Kc via the control board Kb is performed. On the other hand, when the rising combination has not been completed, as described above, the player performs a discarding operation of throwing out one of the 14 hands that is considered unnecessary.

  In this way, the player operates the game ball launch lever 4 to launch the game ball into the game board surface portion 2 to enter the listening state, and the remaining game ball number display portion 27 has a numerical value of “1” or more. Is displayed, the player can reach by operating the reach button 18 before performing the operation of throwing away the bag. However, when the above condition is not satisfied (when the listening state is not established), the reach cannot be applied even if the reach button 18 is operated. After operating the reach button 18, one of the discard buttons 16 a, 16 b, 16 c,... When the self-cutting is performed, the design of the discarded candy is displayed on the discarded candy display unit 34 in the horizontal direction. In addition, the back-draft display unit 30 also displays the back-draft design.

  For the control related to the reach operation, for example, the following processing is performed. First, the main board operation control program P1 detects an operation signal of the reach button 18, and further detects an operation signal from the discard button 16a, 16b, etc., and then performs the current procedure by the listening determination process of the winning determination program P8. When the determination result that the device is in the hearing state is obtained, a control command indicating that the reach has been applied is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb. When receiving the control command, the game effect display program P3212 of the image control board Kc performs a process of displaying the design of the design code of the throwing trash that is transmitted immediately thereafter on the throwing trash display portion 34 in a horizontal direction.

  In addition, when the game field is in a reach state, the game balls launched by the player do not become a kite that completes the rise of the kite (self-suspecting) corresponding to the symbols entered into the entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,. In some cases, the main board control program P1 automatically processes this self-discard as a waste. This eliminates the need for the player to operate the discard button 16a,... After the reach operation.

  Note that the maximum number of points that can be obtained in one game under the control of the winning determination program P8 is, for example, up to 10 points, and an upper limit is set. Further, when two or more types of rising combinations are established at the same time, the score obtained by adding the points given to each of the rising combinations is the score of the game. Similarly, if the handbag contains the same dragon pattern as the front and back dramas, a score is also added to that dorado, for example, one score per dora is added. The One score obtained in the game corresponds to one medal. However, if the total number of points acquired in the game exceeds 10, the total number of medals (scores) that can be acquired is 10.

  Further, the winning determination program P8 is displayed until the game ends, that is, when the game end button 23 is pressed because the remaining number of game balls becomes 0, or when the game start button 24 is pressed. If the predetermined combination of rising combinations shown in FIG. 2 is not completed, the game end control command is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb. Then, the game effect display program P3212 on the image control board Kc displays “game over” on the display device 14 and notifies the player of the end of the game.

  Even when the combination of rising combinations is completed, if the display of the remaining game ball number display section 27 (the number of remaining balls) is “1” or more, the self-discard button 17 or the discard button 16a. , 16b, 16c,..., A game continuation control command is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb under the control of the main board operation control program P1. Then, the game effect display program P3212 on the image control board Kc erases the explanation of the winning combination displayed on the display device 14 and the display of the acquired score so that the game can be continued.

  Further, when the player operates the game end button 23 or the game start button 24 when the rising combination is completed and the explanation of the rising combination is displayed on the display device 14, the main board operation control program P1 inputs this input. The signal type is decoded and the medal management program P3 is operated, the score obtained in this game is added to the medal storage number stored in the RAM 42, and this medal storage number is imaged via the sub-control board Kb. Transmit to the control board Kc. Then, the game effect display program P3212 of the image control board Kc displays the medal stored number on the medal stored number display unit 26. When the player operates the game start button 24 after operating the game end button 23, the stored medal insertion operation is automatically performed, and the main board operation control program P1 can perform the next game. In order to obtain a ready state, a control command for initializing the screen display is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb.

  When the winning combination is a rising combination that can acquire the right of the big game, which is one of the special games set in advance, the winning determination program P8 confirms that the rising combination that can acquire the right of the big game is completed. The control command shown is transmitted to the image control board Kc via the sub-control board Kb. Then, the right acquisition effect display program P3221 of the image control board Kc alternately displays the explanation of the rising role and the display of establishment of the big game right at predetermined time intervals on the rising eye display unit 31 of the display device 14. Then, processing is performed to inform the player that the right of the big game has been established.

  When the right of the big game is established, as described above, the attacker 9 can be operated for a predetermined number of games, for example, 14 games in the next game including the game. In the present invention, even in a game in which the right of the big game is established, the sub-board operation control program P21 of the sub-control board Kb causes the player to perform a throwing operation from the main control board Ka and perform 13 procedures. Each time the symbol code is transmitted, the above-described rising haze determination program P24 is controlled to operate.

  In a game in which the right of a big game is established, when a player launches a game ball, the game ball passes through the attacker operating port 10, and the passage signal is input to the main control board Ka, the main board The operation control program P1 controls the opening of the attacker 9 so that the game ball can easily enter the attacker 9. Each time the player enters one game ball in the attacker 9, the player can arbitrarily select self-restraint by the display device 14 and the interactive method. This self-selection operation can be performed by the processes of the self-selection support program P9 for the main control board Ka and the self-candidate selection support program P3222 for the image control board Kc.

  In the present embodiment, a hearing pattern determination program P241 as a hearing state determination unit, a rising soot determination program P242 and a rising soot determination extraction program P243 as a rising soot determination extraction unit, and the total number of shots as a entrance rate detection unit An example in which the storage program P26, the number-of-entrance entrance number storage program P27, the entrance rate calculation program P28, and the game effect display program P3212 as display control means are provided on the sub-control board Kb will be described. However, these programs can be provided on either the main control board Ka or the image control board Kc. Further, the program stored in the ROM 41 of each control board may be provided with a program having the above-described functions, and the configuration of the program may be a structured program that is a combination of programs created in units of processing functions.

  In the present embodiment, the display means is configured by the rising pole display unit 31 provided in the operation panel 3. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of incoming balls on the game board surface unit 2 as shown in FIG.

It can also be configured. Also in this case, the same effect as the case where a display means is comprised by the rising haze display part 31 can be acquired. In FIG. 12, for example, “20 (20,000)” of the eggplant and “west” of the character are displayed, and the entrance rate to the entrance corresponding to “20,000” is displayed. As 12%, the entrance rate to the entrance corresponding to “West” is displayed as 3%. Then, if the liquid crystal display panel 50 is configured to display whether or not the entrance rate is displayed with a certain opportunity, it is possible to make a difference in the prizes that can be obtained for each player, thereby improving the game performance. be able to.

  Next, another embodiment that is slightly different from the above-described embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. That is, in step S20, it is determined whether or not the specific condition is in operation. As a result, if not in operation, the process is terminated, and if in operation, the process proceeds to step S21. The phrase “being operated under specific conditions” here means that a certain state advantageous to the player is obtained.

  Then, in step S21, it is determined whether or not one-way listening (Eshan Ten) has been performed. If it has been one-way listening, the process jumps to step S24, and if not one-way listening, the process proceeds to step S22. Subsequently, in step S22, calculation of the mahjong tile design for listening is performed on the sub-control board Kb. Further, in step S23, the mahjong tile design corresponding to the calculated mahjong tile design for listening is entered. The entrance rate is calculated and displayed on the display device 14 (for example, the rising eye display unit 31).

  Thereafter, in step S24, it is determined by the hearing pattern determination program P241 whether or not it has been heard. As a result, if not listening, the process ends. If listening, the process proceeds to step S25, and the rising eye type determination program P242 and the rising eye determination extraction program P243 calculate the rising eye level.

  Subsequently, in step S26, in the same manner as described above, the number of entrances to be displayed is to be displayed by the total number of launches storage program P26, the number of entrances by entrance storage program P27, and the entrance rate calculation program P28. The rate is calculated, and further, the game effect display program P3212 displays the entrance rate together with all the mahjong tile designs of the rising kite, for example, on the rising kite display unit 31.

  According to the present embodiment and the other embodiments described above, when there are a plurality of types of rising kites that can establish a listened rising role, all the rising kites are displayed and at the same time, the mahjong game is played on the sparrow ball game machine 1. It is configured to display the level of the entry rate due to this, so that the player can smoothly select the entrance that is relatively easy to enter, and the rise during 7-pair listening In addition to 牌 selection, if there are separate entrances on the board that are on the board, such as when listening to the 4th time, it may be better to hit the entrance mainly for which entry. The person can easily judge. Therefore, it is possible to smoothly advance the game regardless of whether or not it is used to the game.

  In addition, the total number of launched balls storage program P26 that sequentially counts the number of launched balls and stores the total number of shots, and the number of balls entered into each of the plurality of entrances 11a, 11b, 11c,. Entry number storage program P27 that stores the number of entrances by mouth, and the entrance rate for each entrance that calculates the entrance rate for each entrance based on the total number of shots and the number of entrances by entrance The rate calculation program P28 constitutes a rate of entrance detection, so that the rate of entrance for each entrance that is displayed on the lift display 31 or the liquid crystal display panel 50 to be recognized by the player can be accurately and reliably determined. Can get to.
