As for dividing 22 symbol rank 41 corresponding " tube turns left ",, then will distribute the blank 96 of numbering " 0 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L if the random number that random number extraction circuit 56 is extracted is in 0～15 the scope with the left side variable display portions.And if this random number is in 16～25 the scope, then will distribute three BAR 91 of numbering " 1 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 26～36 the scope, then will have distributed the cherry 92 of numbering " 2 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 37～46 the scope, then will distribute two BAR 93 of numbering " 3 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 47～52 the scope, then will have distributed the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 4 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 53～63 the scope, then will distribute single BAR 95 of numbering " 5 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 64～80 the scope, then will have distributed the blank 96 of numbering " 6 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 81～91 the scope, then will distribute three BAR of numbering " 7 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 92～103 the scope, then will have distributed two BAR 93 of numbering " 8 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 104～115 the scope, then will distribute the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 9 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 116～127 the scope, then will have distributed single BAR 95 of numbering " 10 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.

As for dividing 24 symbol rank 43 corresponding " tube of turning right ", exist and an identical relation of turning left with the right side variable display portions.If the random number that random number extraction circuit 56 is extracted is in 0～15 the scope, then will have distributed the blank 96 of numbering " 0 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.And if this random number is in 16～25 the scope, then will distribute three BAR91 of numbering " 1 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 26～36 the scope, then will have distributed the cherry 92 of numbering " 2 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 37～46 the scope, then will distribute two BAR 93 of numbering " 3 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 47～52 the scope, then will have distributed the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 4 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 53～63 the scope, then will distribute single BAR 95 of numbering " 5 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 64～80 the scope, then will have distributed the blank 96 of numbering " 6 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 81～91 the scope, then will distribute three BAR of numbering " 7 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 92～103 the scope, then will have distributed two BAR 93 of numbering " 8 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 104～115 the scope, then will distribute the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 9 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 116～127 the scope, then will have distributed single BAR 95 of numbering " 10 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.

On the other hand, as for dividing 23 symbol rank 42 corresponding " central rotating cylinder " with central variable display portions, if the random number that random number sampling circuit 56 is extracted is 0 (zero), then will have distributed the trigger symbol 97 of numbering " 0 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.And if this random number is in 1～15 the scope, then will distribute three BAR 91 of numbering " 1 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 16～20 the scope, then will have distributed the cherry 92 of numbering " 2 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 21～32 the scope, then will distribute two BAR93 of numbering " 3 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 33～45 the scope, then will have distributed the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 4 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 46～53 the scope, then will distribute single BAR 95 of numbering " 5 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 54～64 the scope, then will have distributed the blank 96 of numbering " 6 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 65～71 the scope, then will distribute three BAR 91 of numbering " 7 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 72～82 the scope, then will have distributed two BAR 93 of numbering " 8 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.If this random number is in 83～120 the scope, then will distribute the symbol " 7 " 94 of numbering " 9 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L, if and this random number is in 121～127 the scope, then will have distributed single BAR 95 of numbering " 10 " to stop and being presented on the pay lines L.

Illustrate with reference to Fig. 9 that below three variable display portions in utilizing slot machine 1 divide 22 to 24 to carry out obtaining under the situation of basic game and win combination and payment thereof.The key diagram of Fig. 9 shows when utilizing three variable display portions to divide 22 to 24 to carry out basic game, obtains the corresponding relation of winning between combination and the payment.Among Fig. 9, central rotating cylinder be numbered " 0 " (zero) and being numbered of the turn left tube and the tube of turning right " 1 " arrived in " 10 " under any one situation, get bonus game.In this case, trigger symbol 97 stops and being presented at variable display portions dividing on the pay lines in 23, and its payment is " 500 ", and game state switches to bonus game from basic game thus.Herein, bonus game is the recreation of being carried out after having finished basic game, and bonus game is made as all favourable to the player in many cases usually.

Being numbered of tube, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left " 4 " or " 9 " then got to obtain and won combination " 7-7-7 " if turn right.In this case, symbol " 7 " 94 stops and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is " 100 ".Being numbered of tube, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left " 1 " or " 7 " then got to obtain and won combination " 3BAR-3BAR-3BAR " if turn right.In this case, 3BAR 91 stops and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is " 5 ".Being numbered of tube, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left " 3 " or " 8 " then got to obtain and won combination " 2BAR-2BAR-2BAR " if turn right.In this case, 2BAR 93 stops and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is " 3 ".Being numbered of tube, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left " 5 " or " 10 " then got to obtain and won combination " 1BAR-1BAR-1BAR " if turn right.In this case, 1BAR 95 stops and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is " 2 ".Be numbered " 2 " of tube, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left if turn right have then been got to obtain and have been won combination " cherry-cherry-cherry ".In this case, cherry 92 stops and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is " 1 ".

Herein, if the combination of the numbering in the tube of turning right, central rotating cylinder and the tube that turns left is the combination beyond the above combination, has then missed to obtain and won combination.In this case, respectively with corresponding three BAR 91 of each numbering, cherry 92, two BAR 93, symbol " 7 " 94, single BAR 95 and blank 96 in any one stop and being presented at each variable display portions dividing on 22,23 and 24 the pay lines L, and its payment is zero.

Below bonus game will be described.As mentioned above, bonus game is in the basic game process, when trigger symbol 97 stops and being presented at variable display portions and dividing 23 pay lines L to go up, and the recreation that switches to from basic game.After game state switches to bonus game from basic game, showing the island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 down immediately, as shown in figure 10 herein.At this moment, show rotation scroll bar 121 on the following LCD 4, and point when prolonging this rotation scroll bar 121 and advancing when playing family expenses, the visual angle can move on the direction of being advanced.Therefore, can move and rotate being presented at down island 3D rendering on the LCD 4.Therefore, utilize rotation scroll bar 121, for example, opposition side that do not demonstrate among Figure 10, this island (can't see the opposition side of this island) can be presented at down on the LCD 4, as shown in figure 11.

Here, in order to describe this rotation scroll bar 121 in detail, as shown in figure 24, rotation scroll bar 121 and the periphery thereof that is presented at down on the LCD 4 is divided into six regional 121A, 121B, 121C, 121D, 121E and 121F.

In regional 121A, prolong under the situation that the direction of arrow advances having determined to play the family expenses finger by touch panel drive circuit 67, be presented at down island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 and can move and rotate at a high speed to the right.And if determined that by touch panel drive circuit 67 object for appreciation family expenses fingers prolongs the direction of arrow and advances in regional 121B, be presented at down then that island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 can move and with middling speed to right rotation.In addition, if determined that by touch panel drive circuit 67 object for appreciation family expenses fingers prolongs the direction of arrow and advances in regional 121C, be presented at down then that island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 can move and low speed rotation to the right.

In addition, if determined that by touch panel drive circuit 67 object for appreciation family expenses finger prolongs the direction of arrow and advances in regional 121D, the island 3D rendering that then is presented at down on the LCD 4 can move and rotation at a high speed left.And if determined that by touch panel drive circuit 67 object for appreciation family expenses fingers prolongs the direction of arrow and advances in regional 121E, be presented at down then that island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 can move and with middling speed to anticlockwise.In addition, if determined that by touch panel drive circuit 67 object for appreciation family expenses fingers prolongs the direction of arrow and advances in regional 121F, be presented at down then that island 3D rendering on the LCD 4 can move and low speed rotation left.

That is to say, by rotation scroll bar 121 be formed on six regional 121A, 121B, 121C, 121D, 121E and 121F on the periphery of this rotation scroll bar 121, the island 3D rendering that is presented at down on the LCD 4 is moved, and with at a high speed, in middling speed and the low speed any one speed to the right or to anticlockwise.

And shown in Figure 10 and 11, shown a plurality of touch buttons district 111～115 in the island 3D rendering under being shown on the LCD 4, made it corresponding to a plurality of points in this island.Therefore, after game state switches to bonus game, and then demonstrate three touch button districts 111～113 in the island 3D rendering that on following LCD 4, shows, as shown in figure 10, and do not show other touch button district 114 and 115.Therefore, in order to make the player can find touch button district 114,115, need to rotate the island 3D rendering that is presented at down on the LCD 4, thereby can show state be switched to the state of Figure 11 from the state of Figure 10 by advancing along rotation scroll bar 121 with finger.At this moment, as shown in figure 11, demonstrated two touch button districts 114 and 115 in the island 3D rendering under being presented on the LCD 4, and do not demonstrated other touch button district 111～113.

In addition, with each title of this a plurality of touch buttons district of English display 111～115, each title is corresponding to each island point.Specifically, near the dark woods in island touch button district 111 is shown as " DEEPJUNGLE ".And near the concealed cave in island touch button district 112 is shown as " SECRET CAVE ".In addition, near the passage on the rock mountain range in island touch button district 113 is shown as " ROCKY PASS ".And near the high mountain in island touch button district 114 is shown as " STEEP MOUNTAIN ".In addition, near the Golden Temple in island touch button district 115 is shown as " GOLDEN PALACE ".

In bonus game, when the object for appreciation family expenses are pointed any one of touching in a plurality of touch buttons district 111～115, arrange in the mode of similar grid and be presented at down on the LCD 4 with the corresponding also relative article of each point in the island.For example, when object for appreciation family expenses finger has touched touch button district 115, as arranging in the mode of similar grid with the storebox of Golden Temple (GOLDEN PALACE) relative article and being presented at down on the LCD 4, as shown in figure 19.

Therefore, will arrange and be presented at down storebox on the LCD 4 in the mode of similar grid be arranged in the demonstration page or leaf 101 shown in Fig. 7 in formed each grid, and this demonstration page or leaf 101 is stored among the work RAM 84.Yet after object for appreciation family expenses finger had touched touch button district 115, the storebox that is presented at down immediately on the LCD only was arranged on down the interior storebox of liquid crystal display window 4W, as shown in figure 13.At this moment, based on playing the family expenses finger, can move bottom liquid crystal display window 4W along the direction of being advanced along being presented at down advancing of left-right scroll bar 122 on the LCD 4 and up-down scroll bar 123.Therefore, utilize left-right scroll bar 122 and up-down scroll bar 123, can show any one storebox that is arranged on the demonstration page or leaf 101 on the LCD 4 down.

Any one that utilize that the raffle table will be in the payment shown in Figure 12 (" 100 ", " 50 ", " 30 ", " 20 ", " 10 " and " skull mark ") distributed to and is arranged in each storebox that shows in pages 101 the grid, and according to playing the family expenses finger to being presented at down the touch of any storebox on the LCD 4, select in the storebox shown on descending LCD 4 one via transparent touch panel 30 (with reference to Fig. 2 and 4).Thus, the payment of distributing to selected storebox is presented on the LCD 3, as shown in figure 20.

That is to say, utilize left-right scroll bar 122 and up-down scroll bar 123, the storebox that shows in the page or leaf 101 is relevant with being arranged in, can realize following function, on following LCD 4, can the storebox that does not show be shown, and the storebox that demonstrates is become do not show.

And, in this bonus game, can continuously on following LCD 4, carry out the selection of storebox, become " skull mark " (bonus game end) up to the payment of distributing to selected storebox, and the player can obtain to be presented at so far all payments on the LCD 3, as the payment of this bonus game.

Although above be illustrated to playing the situation that the family expenses finger touches touch button district 115, point under the situation of touching in the touch button district 111～114 any one playing family expenses, also can carry out same operation.Certainly, in this case, arrange in the mode of similar grid and show with the corresponding also relative article of each point in the island, thereby the player can be according to the selection to these article on the following LCD 4, obtain to be presented at all payments on the LCD 3, as the payment of bonus game.

That is to say, in the slot machine of present embodiment, when process switches to bonus game, according to playing the family expenses finger to the touch of LCD 4 down, this player selects any one in the touch button district 111～115, come to determine to arrange and be presented at down the kind of the article on the LCD 4 in the mode of similar grid.At this moment, be presented at down the user mode of the rotation scroll bar 121 on the LCD 4 by adjustment, the player can arbitrarily carry out following operation, promptly shows the part in these five touch button districts 111～115, and does not show remainder.Thus, increased the selection approach in five touch button districts 111～115, improved interest for bonus game.

In the payment shown in Figure 12 (" 100 ", " 50 ", " 30 ", " 20 ", " 10 " and " skull mark " (termination of bonus game)) any one distributed in the mode of similar grid arrange and be presented at down each article on the LCD 4, increased the selection approach of payment thus, thereby can improve interest bonus game.

Function by the rotation scroll bar 121 of demonstration on the LCD 4 under touch panel drive circuit 67 and transparent touch panel 30 realizations, therefore, if touch panel drive circuit 67 and touch panel 30 are set in traditional slot machine, just can be on touch panel 30, carry out the display operation in five touch button districts 111～115 by rotation scroll bar 121, and these five touch button districts 111～115 are selected, therefore no longer needed new hardware configuration.

The present invention is not limited to above embodiment, can carry out various modifications within the scope of the invention.

For example, in the S51 that the bonus game of Figure 18 is handled, if demonstrate the scroll bar 124 that is used for convergent-divergent, as shown in figure 22, can be to carry out the direction that convergent-divergent uses finger to advance along this scroll bar 124 then, the island 3D rendering that is presented at down on the LCD 4 is carried out convergent-divergent according to the player.For example when finger from right to left when this scroll bar 124 is advanced, show state switches to following state, be that part that island can't demonstrate in Figure 22 is exaggerated and shows, as shown in the following LCD 4 of Figure 23, and amplifying near the hot spring that the back occurs, showing wherein touch button district 116 with " HOT SPRING " printed words.At this moment, on following LCD 4, in the shown island 3D rendering, do not demonstrate the touch button district 114 and 115 that shows among Figure 22.On the other hand, under this state, if finger is from left to right advanced along the scroll bar 124 that is used for convergent-divergent, then show state switches to following state, be that whole island is reduced and as shown in the following LCD 4 of Figure 22 and show, and demonstrated touch button district 114 and 115.At this moment, on following LCD 4, in the shown island 3D rendering, do not demonstrate the touch button district 116 that shows among Figure 23.

At this moment, be presented at down touch button district 116 (S52: be) on the LCD 4 if played the family expenses finger touch, then relevant with hot spring (HOT SPRING) article are arranged in the mode of similar grid and are presented at down (S54) on the LCD 4, and according on following LCD 4 to these selection (S55), the player can obtain to be presented at all payments on the LCD 3, as the payment (S56) of bonus game.The situation in this point and touch button district 111～115 is identical.

In addition, in the slot machine 1 of present embodiment, although whether according to the payment of distributing to selected branch among the above-mentioned S55 is " skull mark " (end of bonus game), finish bonus game (S57), but also can finish bonus game according to the condition of in bonus game, having passed through the scheduled time.

In addition, in the slot machine 1 of present embodiment, as mentioned above, if the player has touched in a plurality of touch buttons district 111～115 any one in bonus game, then will the article relevant arrange in the mode of similar grid and be presented at down on the LCD 4 with the point (corresponding to each touch button district) of island.For example, if the touch button district 115 of having played the family expenses finger touch then will arrange in the mode of similar grid and will be presented at down on the LCD 4, as shown in figure 19 as the storebox of the article relevant with Golden Temple (GOLDEN PALACE).On last LCD 3, do not demonstrate the storebox of arranging in the mode of similar grid.Herein, as shown in figure 25, can will arrange in the mode of similar grid as the storebox of the article relevant and be presented on LCD 3 and the following LCD 4 with Golden Temple.

Therefore, although the storebox that similar grid mode is presented on LCD 3 and the following LCD 4 is arranged in the grid that is formed in the demonstration page or leaf 101 shown in Figure 7 (being stored among the work ROM 84), but the player touches the storebox that is presented at immediately behind the touch button district 115 on LCD 3 and the following LCD 4, only be the storebox that is arranged in liquid crystal display window 3W and the following liquid crystal display window 4W, as shown in figure 13.Like this, based on playing the family expenses finger, can move liquid crystal display window 3W and following liquid crystal display window 4W along direct of travel shown in Figure 25 along the advancing of left-right scroll bar 122 and up-down scroll bar 123.Therefore, utilize left-right scroll bar 122 and up-down scroll bar 123, can on last LCD 3 and following LCD 4, demonstrate and be arranged in any storebox that shows in the page or leaf 101.

As mentioned above, be adjacent to be arranged on lean on and by the upper/lower positions place on LCD 3 and the following LCD 4, if arrange and shown the item relevant with five touch button districts 111～115 in the mode of similar grid, then the indication range of these article relevant with five touch button districts 111～115 is expanded, can be obtained down the wider range of choice of the described article on the LCD 4 thus simultaneously.

Herein, owing to touch panel 30 is not arranged on the LCD 3, so the storebox that the player can select is confined to be presented at down the storebox on the LCD 4.Therefore, when the storebox of wanting to select as the player is not presented at down on the LCD 4, this player utilizes left-right scroll bar 122 and up-down scroll bar 123, and these storeboxes are presented at down on the LCD 4, after this touches them according to object for appreciation family expenses hand and selects these storeboxes.

Yet, in the slot machine 1 of present embodiment, last LCD 3 is provided with touch panel 30, and showing touch button district 111～116, rotation scroll bar 121, left-right scroll bar 122, up-down scroll bar 123 on the last LCD 3 and be used under the situation of scroll bar 124 of convergent-divergent, these touch button districts 111～115 can be selected, the article relevant can be selected thus with these touch button districts 111～115.

In the slot machine 1 of present embodiment, although in basic game, divide 22 to 24 for each variable display portions at every turn, the random number that is extracted according to random number extraction circuit 56 is determined to stop at each variable display portions and is divided symbol on the pay lines L of 22 to 24 (referring to Fig. 8), divides all symbols on 22 to 24 the pay lines L but also can determine to stop at each variable display portions according to the random number that random number extraction circuit 56 is extracted.Use raffle shown in Figure 21 to show to realize this function.The raffle table key diagram of Figure 21 shows when utilizing three variable display portions to assign to carry out basic game, obtains the corresponding relation of winning between combination and the payment.
