Subsequently, when the player presses the game start button 24 (step S1 in FIG. 8) 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. Become.

  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 1 is started.

  In addition, in response to the operation of the game start button 24, the symbol lottery program P11 determines the mahjong tile symbol to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel 51 of each entrance by lottery and outputs a symbol control signal to that effect. (Step S2). As a result, the entrance entrance symbol display program P323 of the image control board Kc responds to the received symbol control signal to cause each liquid crystal display panel 51 to display the mahjong tile symbol determined by the lottery and to display each liquid crystal display panel. The arrangement state of the mahjong tile pattern for 51 is changed, for example, as shown in FIG. 10 (step S3).

  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 arranged in the manual storage area of the RAM 42, and then, in a predetermined order, for example, ascending order of the 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 allocated 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 are not decided, the back side of the bag or the non-displayed pattern is displayed as the initial screen on the manual display unit 35 and the self-display unit 36 that displays the self-displayed symbol. Process to display.

  Subsequently, each of the special gamer lottery program P6 (which operates when a normal game is played) and the dora lottery program P7 are activated, and a winning combination (BIC The game role) and the chance game right can be acquired (chance game role), and the front and back dramas are determined. Each data (encoded data) of the big game winning combination and chance game rising combination determined by the processing of these programs P6 and P7, front and back drums (encoded 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 for 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. A process of notifying 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 performs a process of displaying a message on the display device 14 for prompting an operation of discarding one unnecessary bag from the table. At this time, the voice / sound effect output program P41 may be operated to perform a process of prompting together with the voice.

  Subsequently, the player performs an operation of selecting a throw-away sword from the symbols of the sword displayed on the hand slaw display part 35 and the self-sneak display part 36 (step S4). Then, when the player decides on the design of the throwing bag, the player selects (turns on) one of the throwing buttons 16a, 16b, 16c,. Discard this bag. On the basis of this discarding pot selection signal, the main board operation control program P1 stores the symbol code of the discarding pot by performing the discarding operation in the RAM 42, and further stores it in the manual storage area of the RAM 42. The symbol code that was discarded from the handbag is deleted, and the process of making 13 handbags is performed.

  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 13 manual symbols are received. Then, the process of displaying the symbol of the coral corresponding to these symbol codes on the hand symbol 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 to 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, the display device 14 is caused to perform processing for displaying the design of the cocoon.

  Subsequently, the main board operation control program P1 of the main control board Ka finishes the above-described processing related to the player's disposal operation, and activates the game ball management program P4 to bring the game ball into the game ball launch position. Processing to send a ball. Then, the player operates the game ball launch lever 4 to be able 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 provided for each 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 2 to enter the listening state, and the remaining game ball number display portion 27 has a value of “1” or more. If there is a display, 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 button 18 cannot be operated to reach. After operating the reach button 18, one of the discard buttons 16 a, 16 b, 16 c,... Is operated to discard one of the basket patterns, or the self-discard button 17 is operated. 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. 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.

  In the present embodiment, the symbol arrangement state Plot is performed by the symbol lottery program P11 triggered by the operation of the game start button 24. However, other than this, for example, execution of reach operation, big game role, It is also possible to configure so that a chance game role can be heard and a big game role or a chance game role can be entered as a lottery opportunity.
