TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a gaming machine that executes a jackpot process in which a lottery is executed in response to a prize of a game ball to a start port provided on a game board, and in a case of the lottery, a gaming state advantageous to a player is obtained. Things.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in gaming machines, particularly in pachinko machines, a lottery is performed by detecting a pachinko ball that has won a starting winning opening (special symbol starting winning opening). A pachinko machine that has a function (big hit processing) that is opened a predetermined number of times (one opening and closing is one round and generally lasts 10 to 16 rounds), increases the winning rate of game balls, and makes the player advantageous state. There is.
[0003]
In this type of pachinko machine, a display unit (usually a liquid crystal display screen) is provided at the center of the gauge board of the pachinko machine in order to notify the player of the result of the lottery. The display unit is configured with a symbol variation pattern screen of a plurality of columns (for example, three columns) (there is also a background screen), and notifies the hit / out with the arrangement of symbols when stopped after the effect of the varying symbol variation pattern. It has become. The player can give a sense of expectation by seeing the symbol change screen, because the player is delighted with whether it is a hit or a miss.
[0004]
Basically, the player proceeds with the game with the aim of the jackpot processing. In other words, if the lottery is continued for a long period of time, the progress of the game does not change, and the taste is reduced.
[0005]
Therefore, in the event of a big hit, the player is able to recover the player's willingness to play by giving a bonus, such as increasing the probability of winning (probable change), shortening the symbol change time (saving time), etc. Since the probability change or the time reduction itself does not cause a change in the progress of the game, the monotonous game (continue launching the pachinko ball and following the movement trajectory on the game board with the eyes) is continued.
[0006]
Therefore, Patent Literature 1 proposes that the content of the privilege is determined based on the position where the ball has entered the hole allocated by using the allocation device. For this reason, the player sees the whereabouts of the physically moving pachinko ball with interest, and the taste can be improved.
[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in Patent Literature 1, the content of the privilege is not determined by the operation of the player (adjustment of the firing intensity or the like), and from the viewpoint of the player's intervention, the effect of the privilege by the operation of the player is hardly affected. . Therefore, the progress of the game remains the same, and only a monotonous game is continued.
[0009]
In addition, since the contents of the privilege corresponding to the hole in which the ball is entered can be understood, the expectation and the like are weakened. Furthermore, the location where the ball is entered can be biased due to the installation state of the pachinko machine and the state (habit) of the character, There may be a sense of fairness.
[0010]
In consideration of the above facts, the present invention considers the above, when giving a bonus to a player after the jackpot processing, by operating intervention related to the firing operation of the player, different benefits based on the winning state of the winning opening by the player's will It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine which can change the state of progress of a game by giving, and can escape from a monotonous game.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The invention according to claim 1 performs a jackpot process in which a lottery is executed in response to a prize of a game ball to a starting port provided on a game board, and a gaming state advantageous to a player in the case of the lottery is performed. A gaming machine to be executed, wherein after the jackpot processing, a plurality of winning ports provided on the gaming board are designated, and a winning port designating unit for prompting a player to win any of the designated winning ports; In a state where a plurality of prize holes for prompting a prize to any of them are specified by the prize port specifying means, a prize port specifying means for specifying a prize port in which a game ball fired by the player wins the prize port; And a privilege granting means for granting a privilege to the player based on the winning opening specified by the means.
[0012]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the jackpot process is completed, the winning opening designation means designates a plurality of winning openings, and the plurality of winning openings for urging the user to win any of the designated winning openings are provided. The award corresponds to each of the rewards. When the winning opening specified by the winning opening specifying means is specified, the award providing means gives the benefit based on the specified winning opening. In addition, by changing the privilege corresponding to the specified winning opening each time, the player can enhance the gaming performance by predicting a winning opening that is advantageous to himself from each of the plurality of winning openings and aiming for a winning. it can.
[0013]
As described above, a player intervention operation such that the player can aim for a winning opening is added by a player's game operation (emission strength of a game ball or the like), and the privilege at each winning opening is different. Is temporarily released from a monotonous game, and the interest of the game can be improved.
[0014]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, the privilege providing means stores privilege information including a plurality of privilege type items, a plurality of privilege amount items, and a plurality of privilege result items. Information storing means, and item allocating means for allocating a plurality of items selected from one piece of privilege information to each of a plurality of prize holes, wherein the item allocating means is triggered by a prize in any one of the prize ports. By repeatedly executing the assignment of items according to the number of the privilege information, all the privilege information is determined, and the privilege is granted according to the determined items.
[0015]
According to the invention described in claim 2, the privilege information storage means stores privilege information including a plurality of privilege type items, a plurality of privilege amount items, and a plurality of privilege result items. The privilege type item indicates, for example, the content of a privilege that is advantageous to the progress of the game of the player, such as probable change and shortened working hours. The privilege amount refers to the number of continuations, the duration, and the like of the probability change, time saving, and the like. Furthermore, the privilege result refers to a rate of grant of the privilege amount when the privilege is granted, and can be set from a value of not granted (0%) to a value of all grants (100%).
[0016]
The assigning means first selects a plurality of items from one piece of privilege information (for example, privilege type items). Next, each selected item is associated with a plurality of winning ports. In this state, the player waits for a prize in one of the prize ports, and when the prize is won, the content of the item is determined.
[0017]
Next, similarly, a plurality of items are selected from another piece of privilege information (for example, privilege amount item), similarly associated with a winning opening, awaiting a prize, and the content of the item is determined.
[0018]
By repeating this for the number of privilege information, the content of each privilege information is determined, and this is the content of the entire privilege.
[0019]
More specifically, for example, if the benefit type is probable, the benefit amount is 300 times, and if the benefit result is 100%, the benefit content is “given 300 probable changes”.
[0020]

[0048]
In the award-giving game, the award to be awarded is changed in accordance with the result of the three selected winning games (hereinafter referred to as a first game, a second game, and a third game) for the winning openings 200L, 200C, and 200R. .
[0049]
That is, the first game is a game in which the amount of the privilege (in the present embodiment, 300 rotations as the number of symbol changes, 10 rotations until the next hit) is determined, and as shown in FIG. "300 rotations" is assigned to the left winning opening 200L, "until hit" is assigned to the center winning opening 200C, and "10 rotations" is assigned to the right winning opening 200R (see FIG. 4D). Without notifying the player of this assignment, the special symbol display device 43 displays a message indicating that any one of the winning openings 200 is to be won (see FIG. 5). The assignment in FIG. 4D is an example, and it is preferable to prepare some patterns and change the relationship between the winning opening 200 and the amount of privilege.
[0050]
Thereby, the player adjusts the firing intensity toward any one of the winning openings 200 determined by the player himself according to the message, and fires the pachinko ball, thereby winning the winning opening 200 almost as planned. In other words, the amount of the privilege assigned after winning is displayed on the special symbol display device 43.
[0051]
Next, the second game is a game in which the type of the privilege (probability change, time saving) is determined. As shown in FIG. 4B, the electric tulip 202 having only the left winning port 200L and the right winning port 200R is played. It is opened and the electric tulip 202 of the central winning opening 200C is closed, and the probability change and the time saving are assigned to the winning opening 200L and the winning opening 200R (see FIG. 4D). The assignment in FIG. 4D is an example, and it is preferable to prepare some patterns and change the relationship between the winning opening 200 and the type of privilege.
[0052]
In this state, a message urging the launch of the pachinko ball is displayed on the special symbol display device 43, and after winning, the result (probable or not) is displayed on the special symbol display device 43 (see FIG. 5).
[0053]
Finally, in the third game, the privilege results ((1) execute the privilege type determined in the second game for the number of times determined in the first game (all), (2) execute the privilege type determined in the second game This is a game in which (3) the privilege determined by the second game is not applied) (see FIG. 4C), which is executed half the number of times determined in the first game (see FIG. 4C). (See FIG. 4D). The assignment in FIG. 4D is an example, and it is preferable to prepare some patterns and change the relationship between the winning opening 200 and the result of the privilege.
[0054]
In this state, a message urging the launch of the pachinko ball is displayed on the special symbol display device 43, and the result ((1) to (3)) is displayed on the special symbol display device 43 after winning.
[0055]
Hereinafter, according to FIG. 6, a control block diagram for explaining the functions of the main control board 150 mainly for the privilege granting game will be described. In the control block diagram, each block is not limited to a device, but is classified according to function. Therefore, this includes a case where a plurality of blocks are integrated into one device, and a case where all processing is performed by a single CPU as software.
[0056]
The start winning sensor 168 is connected to the lottery unit 204, and when a winning of the pachinko ball is detected, a lottery (acquisition of a random number) is executed.
[0057]
The lottery result (the obtained random number or the result of comparison with the winning value) is sent to the start winning prize management unit 206 and is held in the holding memory 208 or sent to the lottery result determination unit 210 as it is. When the data is held in the holding memory 208, the data held first is read out and sent to the lottery result determination unit 210.
[0058]
The lottery result determination unit 210 determines the result of the lottery and sends the determination result to the gaming state setting unit 212. The game state setting unit 212 sets a symbol variation pattern or the like based on the result of the win / out, and the game execution control unit 214 controls the progress of the game based on the set result. Although not shown in FIG. 6, the game execution control unit 214 is connected to the various sensors and operating devices (solenoids and the like) shown in FIG. Thereby, for example, in the case of the winning of the lottery result, the above-mentioned big hit processing is executed.
[0059]
Further, the game execution control unit 214 is connected to the command signal output unit 216, and sends a command signal corresponding to the progress of the game to each of the sub control boards 151. As a result, the sub-control board 151 outputs sound and sound effects, displays images, and executes award ball payout at appropriate timing.
[0060]
Here, the game execution control section 214 is connected to the privilege provision game execution control section 218, and sends out a signal for activating the privilege provision game when the big hit processing is completed.
[0061]
The electric power tulip 202 of each winning opening 200 is connected to the privilege giving game execution control unit 218 via a solenoid 220, and a winning sensor 222 (a winning sensor 222L, a winning sensor 222C, a winning sensor) provided in each winning opening 200 is provided. The sensor 222R) is connected.
[0062]
In response to this signal, in the privilege providing game execution control unit 218, the first game execution unit 218A, the second game execution unit 218B, and the third game execution unit 218C sequentially advance the game, and sequentially display the respective results in the privilege information. The data is stored in the storage unit 218D. In addition, the privilege giving game execution control unit 218 is connected to the gaming state setting unit 212, and also corresponds to a gaming state that is not directly related to the privilege giving game, such as a prize ball payout based on winning in the winning opening 220. It has become.
[0063]
The operation of the present embodiment will be described below.
[0064]
First, the flow of a normal game will be described.
[0065]
When the player grips the handle 30 and performs an operation for firing, a pachinko ball is launched with an intensity corresponding to the handle operation amount (rotation amount).
[0066]
When the pachinko ball is hit, the ball is guided by the outer band 36 and the inner band 38 and abuts on the nail 34, the windmill 35, and the like on the board surface 32, and falls while moving unpredictably. Here, when a pachinko ball is won in the starting port 46, a jackpot lottery is started with a predetermined probability using a random number counter. As a result of the jackpot lottery, when a win / miss is determined, a symbol variation pattern prepared in advance is selected (or a random number counter may be selected), and the symbol variation pattern is displayed on the special symbol display device 43. In this symbol variation pattern, there are various effects such as hitting through reach, out-of-reach, and out-of-reach, and the player can wait for the lottery result with a sense of expectation.
[0067]
If the result of the lottery is a hit, a jackpot process of a preset number of rounds (for example, 15 rounds) is executed. During the jackpot process, the special winning opening 44 is almost open, so that the player can be in an advantageous state. When the jackpot process of the predetermined round ends, the game returns to the normal game.
[0068]
Here, in the present embodiment, when the above-mentioned big hitting process is completed, the privilege giving game is executed. Hereinafter, the flow of the privilege providing game will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
[0069]
First, in step 250, the start of the first game is displayed (see FIG. 5A). Next, the process proceeds to step 252 to open the electric tulip 202 of each winning opening 200, and then proceeds to step 254.
[0070]
In this state, when the player shoots the pachinko ball with a predetermined firing intensity, a prize is almost made to the target prize port 200.
[0071]
In step 254, it is determined which winning opening 200 has been won. That is, when the winning opening 200L is won, the process proceeds to step 256 and the privilege amount is set to "300 revolutions". When the winning opening 200C is won, the process proceeds to step 258 and the privilege amount is "win". If the winning opening 200R has been won, the routine proceeds to step 260, where the privilege amount is set to "10 revolutions", and the routine proceeds to step 262, respectively.
[0072]
In step 262, the result of the first game (the amount of privilege) is displayed (see FIG. 5B), and the process proceeds to step 264. Note that FIG. 5B shows a display in a case where the winning opening 200L is won.
[0073]
In step 264, the start of the second game is displayed (see FIG. 5C). Next, the routine proceeds to step 266, where the electric tulip 202 of the winning opening 200L and the winning opening 200R is opened (the electric tulip 202 of the winning opening 200C is closed), and the routine proceeds to step 268.
[0074]
In this state, when the player shoots the pachinko ball with a predetermined firing intensity, a prize is almost made to the target prize port 200.
[0075]
In step 268, it is determined which winning opening 200 has been won. That is, when the winning opening 200L is won, the process proceeds to step 270 to set the privilege type to “probable change”, and when the winning opening 200R is won, the process proceeds to step 272 to set the privilege type to “time saving”. Then, the process proceeds to step 274.
[0076]
At step 274, the result of the second game (privilege type) is displayed (see FIG. 5D), and the routine goes to step 276. Note that FIG. 5D shows a display when the winning opening 200R is won.
[0077]
In step 276, the start of the third game is displayed (see FIG. 5E). Next, the process proceeds to step 278, in which the electric tulip 202 of each winning opening 200 is opened, and then proceeds to step 280.
[0078]
In this state, when the player shoots the pachinko ball with a predetermined firing intensity, a prize is almost made to the target prize port 200.
[0079]
In step 280, it is determined which winning opening 200 has been won. In other words, when the winning opening 200L is won, the process proceeds to step 282 and the privilege content is set to “ON”, and when the winning opening 200C is won, the process proceeds to step 284 and the privilege amount is “halved”. Is set to "", and when the winning opening 200R is won, the process proceeds to step 286, and the privilege amount is set to "not available", and the process proceeds to step 288, respectively.
[0080]
In step 288, the result of the third game (content of privilege) is displayed (see FIG. 5F), and this routine ends. FIG. 5 (F) shows a display when a winning opening 200L is won.
[0081]
As described above, in the present embodiment, three winning ports 200L, 200C, and 200R are provided on the game board 32, and the first game to the third game are executed after the big hit processing. In each game, with the electric tulip 202 opened and closed as appropriate, the player selects the winning opening 200 using a player intervention operation of adjusting the firing intensity of the pachinko ball, and the respective winning opening 200 is set in advance. Since the set benefit (probable change or shortening of time) is provided, a monotonous game can be temporarily interrupted, and the player's willingness to play can be restored.
