  The front out port 10 is provided in the front game board 3 and the rear out port 60 is provided independently in the rear game board 53 so as to collect balls separately.

  Next, the operation will be described. The ball fired from the launching device 44 is driven into the front game area 3a. When the front winning prize opening 7 is won and a ball is detected by the start winning 1 detector 32 attached to the front starting prize opening 7, a winning detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 22. The CPU 22 acquires a random value (counter value) from the hit determination counter according to the timing when the winning detection signal is input to the CPU 22, and determines whether or not the hit determination random number matches the jackpot random number. A lottery is being drawn.

  Based on the lottery result, the special symbol display unit 65 stops the display after the symbols are variably displayed. A jackpot occurs when a jackpot symbol is displayed as the stop symbol. The opening / closing operation of the special winning opening 9 is executed a predetermined number of times (for example, 15 rounds) according to the jackpot symbol.

  When the ball passes through the passing gate 17 or 18 and the passing gate 1 detector 36 or the passing gate 2 detector 37 detects the passing of the ball, a detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 22. The CPU 22 obtains a random value (counter value) from the determination counter in accordance with the timing when the detection signal is input to the CPU 22, and determines whether or not the random number value matches the random number. ing.

  In the present embodiment, for example, the random number range is set to “0 to 127” in the usual drawing lottery, “0 to 126” is hit, and “127” is lost. When the random number value is a winning random number in the lottery process, the winning condition is satisfied. Although not shown in the present embodiment, when winning, when a lottery result is obtained on a part of the special symbol display unit 65 (end of the display unit), for example, “XX” and the same symbols are arranged in both rows Can be displayed in a variable manner. Note that the usual variable display time is 30 seconds in the normal state.

  If a win is made in the normal drawing lottery, the electric accessory 8 is opened for 1 second in a normal state. In response to a control signal from the CPU 22, the solenoid 39 for opening the electric accessory is driven, the open / close door 8a is opened, the winning rate of the balls is increased, and the ball is closed after the opening time. The ball that has won the opened electric accessory 8 passes through the opening 8b and is discharged to the rear game area 53a. As a result, the ball is moved to the rear game area 53a that is advantageous to the player.

In the present embodiment, the special symbol display unit 65 is in a specific state when a specific jackpot symbol is displayed. After the jackpot is over, the specific state is continued until a predetermined number of start times (number of symbol variations) is consumed. During the specific state, the usual fluctuation time and the opening time of the electric accessory 8 are changed as follows.
Normal fluctuation time: 3 seconds in a specific state (30 seconds in a normal state)
Electric appliance opening time: 6 seconds in a specific state (1 second in a normal state)
In this way, the fluctuation time of the ordinary figure is shortened, and the ordinary figure stops changing more frequently than in the normal state. Such a variable time shortening function is generally referred to as a “short-time function”, and a state in which the short-time function is activated is referred to as a short-time state. In addition, the opening time of the electric accessory 8 becomes longer (longer), and the winning rate of balls to the electric accessory 8 becomes higher. Balls that pass through the electric accessory 8 and are released to the rear game area 53a also increase, and the chances of playing in the rear game area 53a, which is advantageous for the player, increase. The normal winning probability is “127/128” and does not change.

  When winning a rear start winning port 57 or 58 provided in the rear game area 53a and detecting a ball by the start winning 2 detector 33 or the start winning 3 detector 34, a big hit lottery is performed. The winning probability of the jackpot lottery in the rear game area 53a is set to “1/50” higher than that in the front game area 3a, and the player can play an advantageous game. Further, the rear start winning ports 57 and 58 are easier to win than the front start winning port 7, and the base (ratio of the number of balls to be paid out with respect to a predetermined number of shot balls) is better during the specific state than in the normal state ( The number of players who play is likely to increase, and it has the same effect as the time-saving state of a conventional pachinko machine called a “seven machine”).

  When a new jackpot occurs during the specific state, or when the predetermined number of start times is exhausted, the specific state is terminated.

  As described above, the front game area 3a and the rear game area 53a configured to allow the player to play games more advantageous than the front game area 3a are provided behind the front game area 3a. It is set as the structure provided with the accessory 8. Then, when winning in the standard drawing lottery, the electric game object 8 is in an open state, and the ball that has entered the electric game 8 has flowed down until the ball enters the electric game 8. It is made to discharge | release to the rear surface game area | region 53a different from 3a. As a result, the ball is moved to a game area having different game characteristics by passing through the electric accessory 8, and the player can play in the rear game area 53a which is more advantageous to the player than the front game area 3a. You can enjoy the game with a fun that isn't there. In addition, when the electric accessory 8 is in an open state, it is necessary to perform an operation of firing a ball aiming at the electric accessory 8, and the player can play the game while adjusting the firing speed, not just holding the handle. As a result, the player's intervention can be improved, and a new interest can be given to the player.

  In the special symbol display unit 65, when a specific jackpot symbol is displayed, a special state is set. In the specific state, the fluctuation time of the ordinary figure is shortened, and the fluctuation of the ordinary figure stops more frequently than in the normal state, and the opening time of the electric accessory 8 becomes longer than the normal state. The winning rate increases and the balls that pass through the electric accessory 8 and are released to the rear game area 53a also increase, and the chance of playing in the rear game area 53a, which is advantageous to the player, increases. Thus, based on the specific state, that is, the specific state set according to the type of jackpot, the open state (open time) of the electric accessory 8 is determined, and the open time is changed, so that unprecedented playability Can be provided.

  Further, the front game area 3a and the rear game area 53a have different easiness to win the front start winning port 7 and the rear start winning prizes 57, 58 provided in those game areas, or the winning probability of winning the jackpot Since the game characteristics differ depending on which game area the ball enters, the interest of the player can be enhanced.

The following modifications may be added to the present embodiment.
(1) The specific state may be a certain change state. If the winning probability of the lottery for the start winnings in the front game area 3a and the rear game area 53a is the same, and a big win occurs in a specific design, the winning probability will be changed after the jackpot ends, and the winning probabilities for all start wins than in the normal state May be made higher.
(2) The specific state is that until a predetermined number of starts is exhausted after a jackpot is generated for a specific symbol, but until the next jackpot is generated, or internally, a lottery lottery (winning probability is reduced to 1/50, for example) It is also possible to make a setting) and win.

(3) In the specific state, the opening time of the electric accessory 8 is set longer than that in the normal state, but the number of times of opening may be made larger (more) than in the normal state.
(4) Although the normal winning probability does not change even if it is in a specific state, it may be changed. For example, the normal winning probability may be “1/128” in the normal state and “127/128” in the specific state.

(5) Although the moving port through which the balls go back and forth between the front game area 3a and the rear game area 53a is provided, a configuration may be adopted in which the moving port is eliminated so as not to go back and forth. In this way, the rear game area 53a can be used only in a specific state, and the value of the rear game area 53a can be increased.
(6) The passing gates 17 and 18 for the general drawing lottery may not be provided, and the electric accessory 8 may be opened when a predetermined condition is established. For example, when a jackpot occurs in a specific symbol, the probability change state is reached after the jackpot ends, and the electric accessory 8 may be kept open during the probability change.

(7) Although the electric accessory 8 is provided in the front game area 3a, it may be provided in the rear game area 53a. It can be provided in at least one of the front game area 3a and the rear game area 53a.
