[Game terminal main flow]
A specific example of the game program in the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a main flow of a game program executed on the gaming terminal 3.

  In the following, it is assumed that the game server 2, the gaming terminal 3, and the common display 4 are activated in advance. In addition, it is assumed that a variable used in the CPU 106 in the control device 100 of the gaming terminal 3 is initialized to a predetermined value, so that the gaming terminal 3 is in a steady operation. Each flow is called and executed at a predetermined timing from the main program of the gaming terminal 3 that is executed in advance.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the main flow of the game program executed on the gaming terminal 3, first, the CPU 106 on the control device 100 side determines whether or not a credit that is the remaining number of coins inserted by the player remains. (Step S1). Specifically, the CPU 106 reads out the credit number C of the credit number data stored in the RAM 110 and performs processing based on the read credit number C. If the number of credits C is “0” (when NO is determined in the process of step S1), the CPU 106 cannot start the game, and thus waits until it detects coin insertion. On the other hand, when the number of credits C is “1” or more (when it is determined YES in the process of step S1), the CPU 106 determines that credits remain and moves the process to step S3.

  Here, the coin means a gaming value in the gaming machine, and may be a currency distributed in the market in a country where the present invention is implemented, and is uniquely used in a game hall where the present invention is implemented. A game medal or the like that can be obtained by the player by exchanging the currency in the implementation country may be used. Further, it may be electromagnetic or electronic information that can be stored in a storage medium such as a magnetic medium or an optical medium. In the case of electronic information, “coin” is stored in the storage medium as a prize having a value corresponding to the number of coins. Further, the “coin” is not only stored in the storage medium, but may be given by printed information such as a barcode or a QR code. In the present embodiment described below, coins as medals are paid out, but can be selected according to the payout method employed in the gaming machine.

  In step S3, the CPU 106 sets a game condition, and proceeds to step S5. Specifically, the CPU 106 determines the number of coins to bet on the role of the poker game performed in the basic game described later based on the number of inserted coins. At this time, the CPU 106 receives an operation signal generated by the pressing operation of the BET switch 43, and stores the BET number in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110 based on the number of times the received operation signal is received. The CPU 106 reads the credit number C written in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110, subtracts the total BET number obtained by adding the BET number from the read credit number C, and uses the subtracted value as a predetermined memory of the RAM 110. Remember to area.

  In order to determine the BET number, a selection key such as a number is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 50, and the player touches the area where the number is displayed on the touch panel 52 and selects the number. You may do it.

  In step S5, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the start switch is ON. Specifically, the CPU 106 determines whether an operation signal from the start switch 44 has been received. When the operation signal is received (when YES is determined in the process of step S5), the CPU 106 determines that the start switch is ON, and moves the process to step S7. On the other hand, when the operation signal is not received (when NO is determined in the process of step S5), the CPU 106 stands by as it is.

  In step S7, the CPU 106 performs a basic game process described later. When the basic game process is completed, the CPU 106 shifts the process to step S9.

  In step S9, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to shift to the bonus game. The determination to shift to the bonus game is made based on whether or not the winning combination in the basic game allows the shift to the bonus game. Specifically, the CPU 106 makes a determination based on the type of winning flag stored in the RAM 110. If the stored winning flag is a transition flag that allows the transition to the bonus game (YES in step S9), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S11. On the other hand, if the stored winning flag is a flag that does not permit the transition to the bonus game (when NO is determined in step S9), the CPU 106 shifts the processing to step S13.

  In step S11, the CPU 106 performs a bonus game process. The bonus game process will be described later. When the bonus game process ends, the CPU 106 moves the process to step S13.

  In step S13, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to pay out. Specifically, CPU 106 determines whether or not the coin number data that has been paid out is stored in RAM 110. When the coin number data is stored in the RAM 110 (when YES is determined in step S13), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S15. If the coin count data is not stored in the RAM 110 (NO in step S13), the CPU 106 ends the main flow.

  In step S15, the CPU 106 pays out coins. Specifically, the CPU 106 reads out the credit number data stored in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110, adds the value of the coin number data to the read credit number data, and adds the added value to a predetermined value of the RAM 110. Store in the memory area. The CPU 106 displays the stored value on the credit number display unit 39. When the process of step S15 ends, the CPU 106 ends this routine. Further, coins may be actually paid out based on the coin number data.

[Basic game processing]
The basic game process will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a flow of basic game processing according to the present embodiment. FIG. 10 is a view showing a basic game probability lottery table according to the present embodiment. FIG. 11 is a view showing a basic game payout table according to the present embodiment. 12 and 13 are display examples of the game screen in the basic game according to the present embodiment.

  In the basic game, a poker game which is a kind of card game is played. Here, terms relating to the playing card will be described. “Suit” refers to the mark on a playing card, and there are four types: “spade”, “heart”, “diamond”, and “club”. The “number” means a number on the playing card, and A (corresponding to ace 1), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J (jack, 11). ), Q (queen, equivalent to 12), and K (king, equivalent to 13). “Picture” refers to a type of card determined by a combination of a playing card suit and a number, for example, “Ace of Hearts”, “King of Spades”, and the like. Furthermore, the “design” means a thing including a suit, a design, and a number.

  First, the CPU 106 performs an internal lottery for determining a winning combination in a playing card that is first displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In this internal lottery, the winning combination is determined by referring to the basic game probability lottery table using the random number generated by the random number generator 112 as a parameter (step S21).

  An example of the basic game probability lottery table is shown in FIG. The basic game probability lottery table includes information on the range of random numbers for internal winning for each winning combination and information on the probability of internal winning, and the random number extraction range is “0” to “65535”. In this table, for example, when random numbers are extracted in the range of “1200” to “1799” out of the random number extraction range “0” to “65535” in the basic game lottery process, “Full House” is the internal winning combination. As determined. In other words, the probability that “Full House” is won as a winning combination is “600/65536”.

  Here, the role of the poker game performed in the basic game will be described. The role of the poker game in the present embodiment is an aspect in which some or all of the five playing cards displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 match based on a certain rule. Specifically, for example, there are “one pair”, “two pair”, “three card”, “straight”, “flash”, “full house”, “four card”, “straight flush”, and “royal straight flush”.

  “One pair” refers to a mode in which there are two playing cards of the same number. In addition, “two pair” refers to an aspect in which there are two sets of two playing card cards having the same number. “Three cards” refers to an aspect in which there are three playing cards of the same number, and “straight” refers to an aspect in which the numbers of five playing cards are continuous regardless of the type of suit. “Flash” refers to the form of five suits of the same type regardless of the number. “Full House” refers to a set of three cards of the same number and one set of two cards. An aspect is mentioned. “Four card” refers to a mode in which four playing cards with the same number are arranged, and “straight flush” refers to a mode in which all the playing cards are in the same suit and the numbers are continuous. “Straight flush” refers to an embodiment in which the suits are of the same type and the numbers are arranged in the order of 10, J, Q, K, and A.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, a payout is associated with each of the above combinations. The basic game payout table in FIG. 11 will be described below. In the basic game payout table, the role of the poker game in the basic game is associated with the payout and the number of selectable times in the bonus game described later.

  For example, when the winning combination is “Royal Straight Flash”, the payout is “250”, and it is possible to shift to the bonus game, indicating that the number of selectable times in the bonus game is five. The payout in the basic game payout table indicates a multiplier for the BET number. That is, when the BET number is “1”, 250 coins are paid out, but when the BET number is “2”, it is multiplied by “250” which is the payout of the winning combination to be 500. A coin is paid out.

  Returning to FIG. 9, in step S <b> 23, the CPU 106 displays a playing card on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In this case, the playing card to be displayed is displayed in a state where the symbol is not visible to the player. Here, if any combination is won in the internal lottery of step S21, an effect that implies that it has been won may be displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S25.

  In step S <b> 25, the CPU 106 causes the liquid crystal display device 50 to display an image in which the symbol is visible by turning over the playing card in a state where the symbol displayed in step S <b> 23 is not visible. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, a playing card in a form that is distributed and the symbols are visible is displayed. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S27.

  In step S27, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the hold has ended. This determination is made based on whether or not the player has pressed the DRAW button 60 displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. Specifically, when the player touches the area of the DRAW button 60 image displayed on the display surface 51a, the touch panel 52 issues a detection signal indicating the contact position, and the CPU 106 receives the detection signal. When the CPU 106 receives a detection signal indicating the contact position, the CPU 106 determines whether the image of the DRAW button 60 has been touched against the coordinate data on the display surface 51a of the detection signal. If the CPU 106 determines that the image of the DRAW button 60 has been touched (pressed), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S43. If there is no contact (if NO is determined in step S27), the process proceeds to step S29. Hereinafter, the process in the operation by the touch panel 52 on the display surface 51a is the same.

  In step S29, it is determined whether any of the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 has been pressed (whether the player has touched the corresponding part of the touch panel 52). This determination is made by selecting any one of the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, and 65, so that the detection signal of the touch panel 52 is transmitted to the CPU 106, and the CPU 106 receives the detection signal. If CPU 106 has received a detection signal (YES in step S29), the process proceeds to step S31. If CPU 106 does not receive a detection signal for a predetermined time (when NO is determined in step S29), the process proceeds to step S33.

  In step S31, the CPU 106 holds and displays the playing cards 71, 72, 73, 74, and 75. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, for example, the corresponding HOLD button 61 is blacked out, and the corresponding playing card 71 is selected and displayed. In the present embodiment, for example, the frame line of the playing card 71 is displayed thick. Then, the CPU 106 stores the held card position data in the RAM 24. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S33.

  In step S33, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the hold has ended. Specifically, when all the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 or step S27 are pressed and the DRAW button is pressed and the CPU 106 receives a detection signal from the touch panel 52, the hold is completed. Judge (assumed to be YES in step S33). On the other hand, if there is a HOLD button that has not been pressed, the hold is not completed (NO is determined in step S33), and the process returns to step S29. FIG. 13 shows that the two HOLD buttons 61 and 64 have been pressed. That is, it indicates that the processing from step S29 to step S33 has been performed twice.

  In step S35, the CPU 106 performs an internal lottery. The internal lottery is a lottery for drawing cards other than the held playing cards 71 and 74. To draw means to replace a card that is not held with another card. The CPU 106 refers to the basic game probability lottery table using the random number generated by the random number generator 112 as a parameter, determines a winning combination, and stores the winning flag of the winning combination in the RAM 110. Further, in the case where the winning combination is permitted to shift to the bonus game in the basic game payout table of FIG. 10, the shift flag to the bonus game is stored in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S37.

  In step S <b> 37, the CPU 106 performs display for redistribution of playing cards other than the held playing card. In this case, it is preferable to display the card card in a state where it cannot be seen at the time of redistribution. Moreover, you may perform the production | presentation which suggests that a certain role is elected at this time. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S39.

  In step S39, the CPU 106 performs a process of turning the redistributed playing card and displaying a symbol. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S41.

  In step S41, the CPU 106 displays an effect image corresponding to the winning combination. In this case, “losing” in the basic game payout lottery table in FIG. 10 is included in the winning combination, and an effect image corresponding to the “losing” combination is displayed. When this process is finished, this routine is finished.

[Bonus Game Processing]
The bonus game process will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing bonus game processing. FIG. 15 shows a bonus game selectable number of times table (OUTLAW). 16 to 19 are diagrams showing effect images in the bonus game.

  The bonus game is a so-called shooting game. First, the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 displays a plurality of targets that are selectable areas on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In addition, a predetermined winning combination is assigned to some of the plurality of targets, and the player is selected when the player selects a target to which the winning combination is assigned. When winning, the player can obtain a payout based on the number of coins, for example.

  First, the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 transmits a signal for displaying the bonus game image data on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50 to the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200. The CPU 206 that has received the signal reads the image data for the bonus game from the image data ROM 216 and displays it on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 (step S51). If this process ends, the process moves to a step S53.

  In step S53, the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 performs an internal lottery. The internal lottery is a lottery in which a payout is assigned to a plurality of areas to be displayed on the display surface 51a. The internal lottery uses, for example, a bonus game lottery table shown in FIG. Then, by determining whether the random number generated by the random number generator 112 corresponds to any of the items in the bonus game lottery table, a dividend is assigned to a plurality of areas to be displayed on the display surface 51a.

  Here, the bonus game lottery table will be described. The table associates a random number range with door numbers assigned to door images (hereinafter referred to as doors) that are selectable areas. The door number is a number corresponding to the number given to the images of the doors 80 to 89 displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 in the bonus game, as shown in FIG.

  A combination of payouts assigned to each of the doors 80 to 89 when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is within a certain random number range is shown. For example, when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is 12000, when the player selects the second door 81 among the doors 80 to 89 displayed on the display surface 51a, 200 coins are selected. Obtainable. Further, when the player selects the fourth door 83, a payout of 100 coins can be obtained, and when the player selects the seventh door 86, the player selects the tenth door 89. If it is, it indicates that 150 dividends can be obtained.

  In step S55, CPU 106 assigns the payout data of the payout determined in step S53 to the door number and stores it in RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S57.

  In step S57, the CPU 106 determines whether a selectable area has been selected by the player. Specifically, for example, the CPU 106 receives, from the touch panel 52, a detection signal based on a player's contact for any of the images of the doors 80 to 89 that are selectable areas displayed on the display surface 51a. , It is determined that the selection has been made. If the CPU 106 determines that the selection has been made (YES in step S57), it moves the process to step S63. Further, regarding the images of the doors 80 to 89, when the detection signal due to the contact of the player is not received from the touch panel 52, it is determined that the selection by the player is not performed. In this case (if NO is determined in step S57), the process proceeds to step S59.

  In step S59, the CPU 106 measures the elapsed time from the time when the coin number data as the payout data is assigned to the doors 80 to 89 in step S55, and determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed. The administrator of the game system 1 can set the predetermined time in advance, and the set time is stored in the storage area of the RAM 110. When CPU 106 determines that the predetermined time has elapsed (when it is determined YES at step S59), it moves the process to step S61. If CPU 106 determines that the predetermined time has not elapsed (NO in step S59), CPU 106 returns the process to step S57.

  In step S61, the CPU 106 randomly determines a door selected by the player from the doors 80 to 89. This is a process of automatically advancing the bonus game when an arbitrary door is selected by the CPU 106 because no selection has been made by the player. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S63.

  In step S <b> 63, the CPU 106 displays an effect image on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. Specifically, an image (FIG. 17) is displayed in which the gunman punches a door selected by the player or randomly selected by the CPU 106 among the doors 80 to 89. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S65.

  In step S65, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the winning is made. Specifically, the determination is made based on whether or not the door associated with the payout data assigned in step S55 is selected. For example, it is assumed that a payout of 100 coins is associated with the fourth door by the internal lottery in step S53 (step S55). When the CPU 106 receives a signal indicating that the player has selected the fourth door in step S57, the CPU 106 that has won 100 coins determines, and a winning flag and coin number payout data indicating that the player has won a prize are stored in the RAM 110. To store. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S67.

  In step S <b> 67, the CPU 106 displays the result image data on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. The effect images up to the above will be described later. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S69.

  In step S <b> 69, the CPU 106 performs a process of subtracting 1 from the selectable number of times stored in the RAM 110. The selectable number of times is the number of times determined in the basic game payout table in the basic game. The subtractable selectable count is stored in the RAM 110 as a new selectable count. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S71.

  In step S71, the CPU 106 reads the selectable number of times stored in the RAM 110 and determines whether or not the selectable number is zero. If the CPU 106 determines that the selectable number of times is zero, the routine is terminated. If the CPU 106 determines that the selectable number of times is not zero, the CPU 106 returns the process to step S57.

  The effects in the bonus game will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 16 shows a screen when the bonus game is started. That is, this is the screen displayed in step S51 in FIG. On the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50, doors 80 to 89 are displayed as selectable areas. Under the doors 80 to 89, the selectable number 79 is displayed. Further, the door 83 with the number 4 and the number is selected by the player (step S57), and the doors 83 are different from the other doors 80, 81, 82, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89. ing.

  FIG. 17 is an effect image showing that the door selected by the player in step S63 is punched out.

  FIG. 18 is a screen displayed in step S67 in FIG. FIG. 18 is a diagram showing that 100 coins are allocated to the door 83 selected by the player, and the player has obtained 100 coins. That is, the selected door 83 is punched and a coin count 78 as a payout is displayed.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram showing an effect image when a door to which a payout is assigned is not selected. This indicates that the selection by the player was a so-called loss. If the number of selectable times is not zero, at the next selection, the lost door is shown with the door punched out to indicate that it has been selected (for example, in FIG. 18). Door 80).

[Second aspect of bonus game]
The second mode of the bonus game will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 20 is a diagram showing a flow of the second mode of the bonus game according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 21 shows a stage number determination / payout addition table. FIG. 22 is a diagram showing a bonus game probability lottery table (OUTLAW). 23 and 24 are examples of display images in the bonus game.

  In the second aspect of the bonus game, the payout given by winning is not only a coin but also a right to play a game of the next stage. Every time the stage is cleared, a coin is added as a payout, When the stage is cleared, the coins accumulated according to the number of cleared stages are paid out as a jackpot. In this way, the player can obtain a larger payout according to the number of cleared stages.

  First, the CPU 106 determines the number of stages (step S80). The number of stages is the number of times the game is performed when the game is cleared in the bonus game. For example, the number of stages of 3 means that the number of stages required to become a jackpot in the bonus game is three. In other words, if you clear three stages, you become a jackpot. Specifically, the number of stages is determined by the random number range in the stage number determination / payout addition table of FIG. 21 including the random number generated by the random number generator 112. When this process ends, the CPU 106 stores the determined number of stages in a predetermined area of the RAM 110, and moves the process to step S81.

  Here, the stage number determination / payout addition table of FIG. 21 will be described. In the stage number determination / payout addition table, the number of stages, the random number range, and the number of payout addition coins added each time the stage is cleared are associated with each other. For example, when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is 51000, the CPU 106 uses the number of stages associated with the random number range including the random number 51000 as the number of games played in the bonus game.

  In step S81, the CPU 106 displays image data of the bonus game. For example, the screen is as shown in FIG. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S82.

  In step S82, the CPU 106 performs an internal lottery. This process is the same as step S53 in FIG. That is, using the bonus game probability lottery table (OUTLAW) in FIG. 22, the payout data associated with the random number range including the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is determined. For example, when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is 42000, OUTLAW data, which is the right for the player to play the next stage, is associated with the 3rd door and the 7th door, and the 6th door. 150 coins and 100 coins are associated with the 10th door. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S83.

  In step S83, the CPU 106 assigns the payout data to the doors 80 to 89, respectively. This process is the same as step S55 in FIG. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S84.

  In step S84, the CPU 106 determines whether or not a selection has been made by the player. This process is the same as step S57 in FIG. If the determination in step S84 is YES, the process proceeds to step S87. If NO is determined in step S89, the process proceeds to step S85.

  In step S85, the CPU 106 measures the elapsed time since the allocation of the payout data to the doors 80 to 89 in step S83, and determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed. This process is the same as step S59 in FIG. If the determination is YES, the process proceeds to step S86. If the CPU 106 determines NO, it returns the process to step S84.

  In step S86, the CPU 106 randomly determines a door selected by the player from the doors 80 to 89. This is a process of automatically advancing the bonus game when an arbitrary door is selected by the CPU 106 because no selection has been made by the player. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S87.

  In step S <b> 87, the CPU 106 displays an effect image on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. Specifically, an image (FIG. 17) in which the gunman 101 punches a door selected by the player or randomly determined by the CPU 106 among the doors 80 to 89 is displayed. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S88.

  In step S88, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the OUTLAW has been won. Specifically, the determination is made based on whether or not the door associated with OUTLAW is selected from the payout data assigned in step S83. Here, winning OUTLAW indicates that the right to play the next stage has been won.

  The determination in step S88 is, for example, that OUTLAW is associated with the fourth door 83 by the internal lottery in step S82 (step S83). If the CPU 106 receives a signal indicating that the player has selected the fourth door 83 in step S84, the CPU 106 determines that OUTLAW has been won, and stores a winning flag indicating that a winning has been won in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S89. If the player has selected a door that is not associated with OUTLAW among the displayed doors 80 to 89, the CPU 106 determines that it has not won and moves the process to step S92.

  In step S89, the CPU 106 displays effect image data when the OUTLAW is won on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. For example, an effect image as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24 described later is displayed. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S90.

  In step S90, the CPU 106 adds the number of coins to be paid out by clearing the stage as the number of accumulated coins to the coin number data. For the payout, the corresponding number of coins is added according to the stage number determination / payout addition table of FIG. For example, when the first stage is cleared, 200 coins are added. When the second stage is cleared, 300 coins are added. In this way, every time the stage is cleared, coins are cumulatively added. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S91.

  In step S91, the CPU 106 performs 1 subtraction processing on the stage number n determined in step S80. Specifically, the number n of stages is read from the RAM 110, subtraction processing is performed, and a new number n is overwritten and stored. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S92.

  In step S92, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the stage number n is zero. When the number n of stages stored in the RAM 110 is zero, the CPU 106 moves the process to step S98. If the stage number n is not zero, the CPU 106 returns the process to step S81.

  In step S93, the CPU 106 determines whether or not there is a coin payout. Specifically, it is determined whether or not the player has selected the door assigned to the coin payout in step S83. Specifically, for example, it is assumed that 100 coins are allocated to the fourth door 83. In this case, the CPU 106 determines that the CPU 106 has received the signal that the player has selected the fourth door 83 in step S84, and moves the process to step S94. If the CPU 106 receives a signal for selecting a door to which no coin payout is assigned, the process proceeds to step S95 because it is determined that no winning has been won.

  In step S <b> 94, the CPU 106 adds the winning coin count to the coin count data stored in the RAM 110 and stores the added coin count data in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S95.

  In step S <b> 95, the CPU 106 displays an effect image on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. For example, when a coin is won, an image showing the number of coins to be paid out as shown in FIG. 18 is displayed. When a coin is not won, a broken door such as a door 80 in FIG. 18 is displayed. A figure is shown. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S96.

  In step S <b> 96, the CPU 106 performs 1 subtraction processing on the selectable number of times stored in the RAM 110. The selectable number of times of subtraction processing is stored in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S97.

  In step S97, the CPU 106 reads the selectable number of times stored in the RAM 110, and determines whether the selectable number is zero. If the CPU 106 determines that the selectable number of times is zero, the routine is terminated. If the CPU 106 determines that the selectable number of times is not zero, the CPU 106 returns the process to step S84.

  In step S98, the CPU 106 displays a game clear image of the bonus game on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. That is, the player selects OUTLAW for all the stages determined in step S80, and has cleared all the bonus games. When this process is finished, this routine is finished.

  The effect image displayed in this routine will be described below with reference to FIGS. 23 and 24. The description of the same image as that displayed in the routine in FIG. 14 is omitted.

  FIG. 23 is an image displayed in step S89. That is, it is an image when winning OUTLAW. Since the door 86 selected by the player is won by OUTLAW, the enemy character 103 is lurking in the door 83, and it is shown that the player is found surprised by the selection.

  FIG. 24 shows an image displayed subsequent to FIG. That is, the appearance of the discovered enemy character 103 escaping from the selected door 86 is shown, and at the same time the gunman 101 is chasing. And by chasing, it moves to the next stage.

[Processing between server and gaming terminal]
A process between the game server 2 and the gaming terminal 3 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing a process for displaying the bonus game display screen on the common display 4 and playing the bonus game. As described above, the processing can be completed with a single gaming terminal, but the present invention can also be implemented as a game system managed by the game server 2.

  That is, when a request signal is received from the gaming terminal 3, the game server 2 can display and execute a bonus game executed on the gaming terminal 3 that has received the request on the common display 4. The process flow will be described below.

  First, the gaming terminal 3 waits until the above-described game is executed. Then, the game program is started when the player inserts coins at the gaming terminal 3 (when YES is determined in step S101).

  In step S203, the above-described basic game is executed on the gaming terminal 3. Details of this processing are as described with reference to FIGS. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S105.

  In step S105, it is determined whether or not to shift to the bonus game. Since this determination is as described in step S9 in FIG. If YES is determined in step S105, the process proceeds to step S107. If NO is determined in step S105, the process proceeds to step S127.

  In step S107, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to display the bonus game to be executed on the common display 4. Specifically, for example, the CPU 106 displays an option such as whether to display the bonus game on the common display 4 on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 in the gaming terminal 3, and determines by accepting the player's selection. . When the CPU 106 accepts the player's selection to be displayed on the common display 4 (when YES is determined in step S107), the process proceeds to step S113. If the CPU 106 accepts selection by the player not to display on the common display 4, the process proceeds to step S109.

  In step S109, since the selection not to display the execution of the bonus game on the common display 4 is accepted, the CPU 106 executes the bonus game only on the gaming terminal 3. If the bonus game is over (when YES is determined in step S111), the process proceeds to step S127. Note that the processing in the bonus game from step S109 to step S111 is as described with reference to FIGS.

  In step S113, since the selection not to display the execution of the bonus game on the common display 4 is accepted, the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 transmits a start signal to display and execute the bonus game on the common display 4 to the game server 2. To do. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S115.

  In step S <b> 115, the CPU 21 of the game server 2 receives a bonus game start signal from the gaming terminal 3. Then, communication with the gaming terminal 3 is started. Hereinafter, in FIG. 25, the processing is performed in the game server 2, but it is assumed that communication with the gaming terminal 3 is performed in real time. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S117.

  In step S117, the CPU 21 reads the received image data of the bonus game executed on the gaming terminal 3. Specifically, for example, the image data is read from the hard disk drive 25 and displayed on the common display 4. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S119.

  In step S119, the CPU 21 executes a bonus game. In this case, the bonus game is started at the gaming terminal 3 at the same time, and the image data displayed on the gaming terminal 3 is simultaneously displayed on the common display 4. The process in the bonus game is as described with reference to FIGS. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S121.

  In step S121, the CPU 21 of the game server 2 determines whether or not the bonus game has ended. Specifically, when it is determined in step S71 in FIG. 14 that the number of selectable times is zero, it is determined that the bonus game has ended. If it is determined that this process has been completed, the process proceeds to step S123.

  In step S123, the CPU 21 of the game server 2 transmits bonus game result data to the gaming terminal 3. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S125.

  In step S125, the gaming terminal 3 receives bonus game result data from the game server 2. Then, coins are paid out based on the result data (steps S127 and S129). When this process is finished, this routine is finished.

[Jackpot processing in game server]
The jackpot process in the game server 2 will be described below with reference to FIG. The jackpot process is a process of paying out the number of coins accumulated in the game server 2 to the gaming terminal 3 by lottery separately from the normal number of coins paid out in the bonus game. That is, the processing is performed when a predetermined percentage of the number of coins bet at each gaming terminal 3 is accumulated in the game server 2 and the accumulated coin number data reaches a predetermined value. In this process, a lottery is performed in the server 2 and coins corresponding to the number of coins accumulated as a jackpot are paid out to the selected gaming terminal 3.

  First, in step S151, it is determined whether or not to start a game on the gaming terminal 3. The determination to start the game is as described above. If the game is started, the process proceeds to step S153. When it is determined that the game is not started, the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 stands by as it is.

  In step S153, the CPU 106 transmits a predetermined number of coins to the game server 2 as coin number data for the number of coins bet. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S155.

  In step S155, the CPU 21 of the game server 2 determines whether or not coin number data has been received from the gaming terminal 3. If the CPU 21 receives the coin count data, the process proceeds to step S157. Moreover, CPU21 waits as it is, when not receiving coin number data.

  In step S157, the CPU 21 adds the received coin number data to the accumulated coin number data that is the payout accumulated data stored in the RAM 24. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S159.

  In step S159, the CPU 21 stores the accumulated coin number data obtained by adding the coin number data in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 24. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S161.

  In step S161, the CPU 21 compares the accumulated coin count data with the jackpot coin count data. The jackpot coin number data is data that stores an upper limit value of the accumulated coin number data to be paid out to the winning gaming terminal 3 when the accumulated coin number data reaches a predetermined value. If the value in the accumulated coin count data is greater than or equal to the value in the jackpot coin count data (when YES is determined in step S161), the CPU 21 shifts the processing to step S163. If the value in the accumulated coin count data is smaller than the value in the jackpot coin count data (if NO is determined in step S161), the process returns to step S155.

  In step S163, the CPU 21 determines whether or not the gaming terminal 3 has won the jackpot lottery. For example, the CPU 21 performs a lottery using a random number generation program and determines whether or not a jackpot lottery has been won. When the CPU 21 determines that the gaming terminal 3 does not win the jackpot lottery, the routine is terminated. If the CPU 21 determines that the gaming terminal 3 has won the jackpot lottery, the CPU 21 moves the process to step S165.

  In step S165, the CPU 21 transmits the accumulated coin count data to the winning gaming terminal 3. Then, the accumulated coin count data is reset (step S167), and this routine in the game server 2 is ended. If the accumulated coin number data to be transmitted is larger than the value in the jackpot coin number data, the remaining number obtained by subtracting the jackpot coin number data from the accumulated coin number data is newly stored in the RAM 24 as the accumulated coin number data. May be. That is, the number of coins transmitted to the gaming terminal 3 selected as the accumulated coin number data may be the same value as the value in the jackpot coin number data.

  In step S169, the CPU 106 of the selected gaming terminal 3 determines whether or not the accumulated coin count data has been received. If the accumulated coin count data is not received, the routine of the game terminal 3 is terminated. When the accumulated coin count data is received, the CPU 106 moves the process to step S171 and pays out coins based on the received accumulated coin count data. When this process is finished, this routine is finished. The accumulated coin number data is stored in the RAM 110 separately from the coin number data in the basic game and the bonus game.

  In the present embodiment, the jackpot is won by any game terminal 3 that the game server 2 has received the coin count data and made a lottery. However, each game terminal 3 makes a jackpot lottery. It may be. That is, when a predetermined number of coins bet on each gaming terminal 3 are stored in the RAM 110 as accumulated coin number data and the value of the accumulated coin number data is equal to or greater than the predetermined coin number, The CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 may pay out coins based on the accumulated coin count data at the gaming terminal 3.

[Second Embodiment]
A second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 27 is an external perspective view of the gaming terminal 3 in the second embodiment. FIG. 28 is an enlarged front view of the gun-type controller 90 in the second embodiment. FIG. 29 is a block diagram of the gaming terminal 3 in the second embodiment.

  The gaming terminal 3 in the second embodiment will be described below, but the same numbers are assigned to the same parts as in the first embodiment. Further, the description will mainly focus on parts different from the first embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 27, the gaming terminal 3 in the present embodiment is not a touch panel as an input device by a player, but a gun-type controller 90 and an infrared camera sensor 300 for obtaining coordinate data of an input position by the gun-type controller 90. With.

  The gun-type controller 90 is housed in a gun-type controller case 92, and the gun-type controller 90 and the gaming terminal 3 are connected by a cable 93 and communicate with each other. In the present embodiment, a wired connection is used, but wireless communication may be performed by a wireless LAN, Bluetooth (registered trademark), or the like.

  The infrared camera sensor 300 always photographs the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50 and detects infrared rays emitted from the gun-type controller 90. In the present embodiment, for example, electromagnetic waves in the vicinity of infrared and infrared wavelength bands are used as the electromagnetic waves emitted by the gun-type controller 90, but the type of electromagnetic waves emitted by the gun-type controller 90 is not limited to infrared rays.

  As shown in FIG. 28, the gun-type controller 90 will be described. The gun-type controller 90 has a gun-like appearance and includes a grip 94, a trigger 95, a barrel 96, and a muzzle 97. The player performs an input by holding the grip 94 with his hand and pulling the trigger 95 so that the muzzle 97 is directed to the target displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50.

  The muzzle 97 includes a light emitting unit 311 that emits electromagnetic waves such as infrared rays (see FIG. 29). The trigger 95 includes a trigger switch 312 that transmits to the CPU 106 of the gaming terminal 3 that the input operation has been performed in response to the player performing an operation of pulling the trigger 95.

  The gaming terminal 3 includes an infrared camera sensor 300 (see FIG. 29). The infrared camera sensor 300 images electromagnetic waves such as infrared rays, analyzes the position where the liquid crystal display device 50 is irradiated with the electromagnetic waves as coordinate data, and transmits the coordinate data to the CPU 106. That is, the infrared camera sensor 300 associates the vertical and horizontal positions on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 with the vertical and horizontal position coordinates of the CCD elements constituting the infrared camera sensor 300, and the coordinates of the CCD elements that pick up infrared rays are used. The coordinate position on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 is calculated. Here, the infrared camera sensor 300 may pick up infrared rays and send the picked-up data to the CPU 106, and the CPU 106 may analyze the position of the infrared rays on the liquid crystal display device 50 as coordinate data.

  In the bonus game, the player uses the gun-type controller 90 to pull the trigger 95 to any door among the doors 80 to 89 displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50, perform shooting, and emit infrared rays. Irradiate the display surface 51a. Then, the trigger switch 312 transmits an input signal to the CPU 106 by the input operation that is the shooting. The CPU 106 that has received the input signal determines whether or not the shooting has been successful based on the irradiated infrared coordinate data received from the infrared camera sensor 300 and the position coordinates of the doors 80 to 89 displayed on the display surface 51a. Determine whether.

  In the present embodiment, the gun-type controller 90 is used in a shooting game in a bonus game. In the basic game, an input can be performed with the cross key 58 and the enter key 59 for selecting each button displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In the basic game, the gun-type controller 90 may be used for input. That is, it is possible to input by shooting each button displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50.

  Further, when a bonus game is played on the common display 4 by communicating with the game server 2, the common display 4 is also provided with an infrared camera sensor, and the player can directly shoot the target displayed on the common display 4. In this case, when the game server 3 receives a bonus game start signal from a plurality of gaming terminals 3 at the same time, the bonus game can be executed simultaneously. The game server 2 distinguishes which gaming terminal 3 is the shooting performed by using infrared rays having different wavelengths assigned to each gaming terminal 3, and transmits data to each gaming terminal 3 that has shot. A game screen of the bonus game is displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 of the gaming terminal 3. For example, when the gaming terminal 3a shoots the door 80 on the common display 4 and the gaming terminal 3b shoots the door 84, the game server 2 transmits a signal indicating that the shooting to the door 80 is successful to the gaming terminal 3a. A signal indicating that the door 84 has been successfully shot is transmitted to the gaming terminal 3b. Thus, the bonus game can be executed on the common display 4 also in the present embodiment.
