"Leg C" is an area that is displayed in order in a variable state and a variable stop state, and each of the left notice area Ly to the right notice area Ry corresponds to a notice element display area.
[5] The big hit judging means judges whether or not it is a big hit to open the variable ball entrance based on the game ball entering the starting port. Step S76 in FIG. 39 is an example of a big hit determination means.
[6] The identification symbol setting means sets three rows of identification elements to a predetermined jackpot combination when the jackpot determination means determines that the jackpot is big. This identification symbol setting means sets the identification elements in three columns to either the combination of outlier reach or the combination of complete outage when the jackpot determining means determines that the jackpot is not big hit. There is a possibility that there is a possibility that a combination of three rows of identification elements is a jackpot when the two rows of identification elements are variably stopped, and a combination of jackpots when the three rows of identification elements are variably stopped A combination that does not become a perfect combination means a combination in which the possibility of becoming a jackpot combination visually disappears in a state where the two rows of identification elements are variably stopped. Each of step S289 in FIG. 52 and step 292 in FIG. 52 is an example of an identification symbol setting unit, and when it is determined that a big hit, three rows of identification elements are set to the same big hit combination. Step S296 in FIG. 52 is an example of the identification symbol setting means, and when it is determined that it is not a big hit, three columns of identification elements are mutually identical, and the remaining one column is different for each of the two columns. Set to a combination of outreach. Step S298 in FIG. 52 is an example of the identification symbol setting means, and when it is determined that the jackpot is not a big hit, the identification elements in the three columns are set to a completely out-of-combination combination in which the two columns are not identical to each other.
[7] The variable information selection means is for selecting variable information for setting the effect contents of the image of the symbol game from a plurality of predetermined variable information, and it is determined that the big hit determination means is a big hit. When selecting the variable information for the big hit including the first variable information and the second variable information, the variable information is selected from the variable information for the big hit, and when the big hit determining means determines that it is not the big hit, the extra information including the third variable information is selected. Variable information is selected from the variable information. Step S283 in FIG. 52 is an example of variable information selection means. In step S283, process data is selected from the process data # 11, # 21, # 31, and # 41 when it is determined that it is a big hit, and process data # 00 and # 01 are selected when it is determined that it is not a big hit. , # 10, # 20, # 30 and # 40 are used to select process data. Each of the process data # 11 to # 41 corresponds to variable information for jackpot, the process data # 31 corresponds to first variable information for jackpot, and the process data # 41 corresponds to second jackpot information. It corresponds to variable information. Each of the process data # 00 to # 40 corresponds to detachable variable information, and the process data # 40 corresponds to detachable third variable information.

When the variable information selection means selects the first variable information for jackpot and the second variable information for jackpot, the identification symbol setting means adds three rows of identification elements to the jackpot combination. When the variable information selection means selects the third variable information for detachment, the identification symbol setting means removes the identification elements in three columns, or the combination of complete reach or complete In addition to the combination of detachment, processing for setting the combination of provisional detachment reach is performed. That is, when the big hit process data # 31 is selected, the three rows of identification elements are set to the temporary hit reach combination in addition to the big hit combination in step S312 of FIG. When selected, the three rows of identification elements are set to the combination of temporary hit reach in addition to the jackpot combination in step S322 in FIG. 53, and when the process data # 40 for removal is selected, the three rows of identification elements are set. In step S322 of FIG. 53, the temporary reach reach combination is set in addition to the miss reach combination.
[8] The notice symbol setting means sets the three lines of notice elements to any one of a plurality of valid combinations determined in advance based on the game balls entering the start opening, or any of the plurality of valid combinations. It is set to one of a plurality of different invalid combinations, and the variable information selection means selects the first variable information for jackpot, the second variable information for jackpot, and the off-set In the case where the third variable information is selected, the three rows of notice elements are set to any one of a plurality of valid combinations. Each of step S301 in FIG. 53, step S304 in FIG. 53, step S307 in FIG. 53, step S310 in FIG. 53, and step S320 in FIG. 53 is an example of the notice symbol setting means. Each of step S310 and step S320 is to set the notice elements in three rows to any one of three types of completed combinations. As shown in FIG. 6, the completed combination is a combination in which three rows of notice elements constitute a predetermined picture, and corresponds to an effective combination. Each of step S301 and step S307 is to set the three rows of notice elements to any one of the three types of incomplete combinations. This incomplete combination is a combination in which the three rows of notice elements do not constitute a predetermined pattern, and corresponds to an invalid combination. In step S304, the three rows of notice elements are set to any one of three types of combinations of collapsed completions. The combination of completion failure is a combination in which three rows of notice elements do not constitute a predetermined pattern, and corresponds to an invalid combination.
[9] The symbol game means displays an image of the symbol game on the symbol display device based on the result of selection of the variable information selection means on the basis of the game ball entering the start opening. In addition, based on the fact that the notice elements are alternately variably stopped first from the identification elements, all of the three rows of identification elements are variably stopped so that the combinations of the three rows of identification elements correspond to the setting results of the identification symbol setting means. All the three rows of the notice elements are variably stopped so that the three rows of the notice elements are combined according to the setting result of the notice symbol setting means. Step S266 in FIG. 51 is an example of a symbol game means, and displays a graphic game image on the decorative symbol display 33 based on the transmission of a display control command to the symbol display control circuit 80.

  The symbol game means is selected when the variable information selecting means selects the first variable information for jackpot, when the second variable information for jackpot is selected, and when the third variable information for losing is selected. Is an identification element such that the three columns of identification elements become a combination of provisional detachment reach according to the setting result of the identification symbol setting means, and the three columns of notification elements become an effective combination according to the setting result of the notification symbol setting means And a process of variably stopping the notice element alternately from the identification element, and each of the three lines of identification element and the three lines of notice element after variably stopping each of the three rows of identification elements and the three rows of notice elements. A process of deleting, a plurality of types of effect elements composed of the same kind of design elements as the design elements, and a combination of three types of effect elements composed of the same type of design elements and a combination of three types of notice elements, and three columns of identification element display areas and three columns Notice of It performs processing for variably displaying in a predetermined order in connection region formed by connecting the element display region to each other. The composite variation area M in FIG. 7 is an example of a connection area. The composite variation area M is formed by connecting six of the left variation area Lm, the middle variation area Cm, the right variation area Rm, the left notice area Ly, the middle notice area Cy, and the right notice area Ry. In the variation area M, as shown in FIG. 8, “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, “7”, “8”, “notice symbol A”, “notice symbol B”. "" Preliminary symbol C "is displayed in a predetermined order. Each of the eight types of effect elements “1-8” is the same type as the identification element, and each of the three types of effect elements “notice symbol A to notice symbol C” is the same type as the combination of the completion of the three rows of notice elements. belongs to.

When the variable information selection means selects the first variable information for jackpot, the symbol game means displays the effect element in the connected area with the same kind of one of the plurality of symbol elements and then displays the effect element. A process of erasing and stopping and displaying the identification elements in each of the three columns of identification element display areas so as to be a jackpot combination according to the setting result of the identification symbol setting means is performed. In the case where the variable information selecting means selects the second variable information for jackpot, the symbol game means stops the display of the effect elements in the same kind as one of a plurality of effective combinations in the connected area, and then displays the effect. The elements are erased, and the identification elements are stopped and displayed in combinations that remain likely to be jackpot combinations in each of the two columns of identification element display areas, and the identification elements are variable in the remaining one column of identification element display areas. The identification element is stopped and displayed in the remaining one column of the identification element display area so that the three rows of identification elements become a jackpot combination according to the setting result of the identification symbol setting means. In the case where the variable information selecting means selects the third variable information for detachment, the symbol game means displays the effect after stopping the effect element in one of a plurality of effective combinations in the connected area. The elements are erased, and the identification elements are stopped and displayed in combinations that remain likely to be jackpot combinations in each of the two columns of identification element display areas, and the identification elements are variable in the remaining one column of identification element display areas. And the display of the identification elements in the remaining one column of the identification element display area is stopped so that the three columns of identification elements become combinations of outliers according to the setting result of the identification symbol setting means.
2. Description of the operation of the pachinko gaming machine according to claim 1 When the game ball enters the start opening, it is determined whether or not it is a big hit. When it is determined that it is a big hit, the identification elements of the three rows are set to the big hit combination, and variable information is selected from the variable information for the big hit including the first variable information and the second variable information. When any one of the first variable information and the second variable information is selected, the identification elements of the three columns are set as a combination of temporary outreach in addition to the jackpot combination. Further, when it is determined that it is not a big hit, the identification elements of the three columns are set to either a combination of outlier reach or a combination of complete outliers, and variable information is selected from among outlier variable information including the third variable information. Selected. When the third variable information is selected, the three columns of identification elements are set to a temporary outreach combination in addition to the outreach combination.

  When the game ball enters the start opening, the identification element is variably displayed in each of the three columns of the identification element display area, and the notice element is variably displayed in each of the three columns of the notice element display area. These three rows of identification elements and three rows of notice elements are stopped and displayed in the order of (1) identification elements (2) notice elements (3) identification elements (4) notice elements (5) identification elements (6) notice elements. When any one of the first variable information for jackpot, the second variable information for jackpot, and the third variable information for disconnection is selected (5) When the identification element is stopped and displayed Thus, the three rows of identification elements become a combination of provisional outreach, and (6) the three rows of notice elements become valid combinations when the notice elements are stopped and displayed. Then, each of the three rows of identification elements and the three rows of notice elements is erased, and variable display of the effect elements is started in place of the three rows of identification elements and the three rows of notice elements. The variable display of the effect elements is performed in a large connection area formed by connecting the three rows of identification element display areas and the three rows of notice element display areas, and the connection areas are of the same type as the symbol elements. A plurality of types of effect elements consisting of a plurality of types of effect elements composed of pictures and an effective combination of the three rows of notice elements and the same type of effect elements are variably displayed in a predetermined order.

When the first variable information for the big hit is selected, the effect element in the connected area is variably stopped with the same kind of one of the plurality of symbol elements. Then, the effect elements are deleted, and the identification elements are stopped and displayed so that the combination of the identification elements is a big hit in each of the three columns of identification element display areas. When the second variable information for jackpot is selected and when the third variable information for losing is selected, the effect elements in the connected area are the same type as any of a plurality of effective combinations. Variable stop with a thing. Then, the effect element is deleted, and the three columns of identification elements are displayed in a reach state. In this reach state, each of the two elements in the identification element display area is stopped and displayed in a combination that leaves the possibility that the identification element is a big hit combination, and the identification elements are variably displayed in the remaining one column of the identification element display area. When the second variable information for jackpot is selected, the three columns are identified based on the fact that the identification elements are stopped and displayed in the remaining one column of the identification element display area in the reach state. If the element is a jackpot combination and the third variable information for detachment is selected, the three columns of identification elements are stopped and displayed in the remaining one column of the identification element display area in the reach state. The identification element is a combination of outliers.
3. Description of the effect of the pachinko gaming machine according to claim 1 Based on the fact that the three rows of notice elements become an effective combination, the three rows of identification element display areas and the three rows of notice element display areas are switched to the connected areas, Production elements are variably displayed in the area. When this effect element is the same type as the identification element and is stopped and displayed, the three rows of identification elements become a jackpot combination, and when the effect element is the same type as the effective combination of the three rows of notice elements and stopped The discriminating element of the row goes through the reach state and becomes either a jackpot combination or a combination of outreach. For this reason, the visual display element is an identification element in addition to the preference that the six display areas are switched to one connection area, and the expectation element of the three columns is an effective combination. As a result, it is possible to generate an image of a variety of symbol games that is rich in content and visual points.

It is done by changing it. The variation display of the symbol elements in each column is started in time synchronization with the start of the variation of the special symbol, and the symbol elements in the left column are the symbol elements in the left column, the symbol elements in the middle column, and the symbols in the right column. Fluctuation is stopped at any one of “1” to “8” among the symbol elements, and the symbol elements on the right column are the second “1” to “8” among the symbol elements on the left column to the right column. The symbol element in the middle row stops changing at any one of “1” to “8” among the symbol elements in the left column to the right column.

  The symbol elements in the left column, the middle column, and the symbol element in the right column constitute a decorative symbol, and the combination of decorative symbols is a combination of a probable big hit, a combination of a normal big hit, and a combination of outliers. There are four types of combinations that are completely out of place. As shown in FIG. 4 (b), the probability variation jackpot combination refers to a combination in which the symbol elements in the left column, the symbol elements in the middle column, and the symbol elements in the right column are the same odd number. Four types of combinations "111", "333", "555", and "777" are set for the big hit combination. As shown in FIG. 4C, the normal jackpot combination refers to a combination in which the symbol elements in the left column, the symbol elements in the middle column, and the symbol elements in the right column are the same even number. Four types of combinations "222", "444", "666", and "888" are set for the big hit combination. As shown in FIG. 4 (d), the combination of outreach is that the symbol element in the left column and the symbol element in the right column are the same, and the symbol element in the middle column is the symbol element in the left column and the symbol element in the right column. Different combinations are referred to, and combinations that are completely out of order are combinations in which the symbol elements in the left column and the symbol elements in the right column are different from each other, as shown in FIG. When the out symbol is stopped and displayed in a special symbol game, this decorative symbol will stop variably in either the combination of complete disengagement or the disengagement reach, and the normal jackpot symbol will stop in the special symbol game. When it is displayed, it finally stops changing with a combination of normal jackpots, and when a special variable game is stopped and displayed with special symbol games, it finally stops changing with a combination of positive jackpots.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the upper left notice area Ly to the right notice area Ry have the same size and contour shape as each other. In the decorative symbol game, the left notice area Ly to the right notice area Each of the areas Ry is displayed in contact with each other as a video instead of a virtual area, and the notice elements are sequentially displayed in the change state and the change stop state in each of the left notice area Ly to the right notice area Ry.

This special symbol variation process is executed when the special symbol process flag is set to “2”, and the CPU 51 controls the special symbol indicator 32 to blink based on the fact that the LED of the special symbol indicator 32 is controlled to blink in step S121. Is displayed in a varying state, and the remaining time of the special symbol game is updated based on subtracting the unit value ΔT recorded in advance in the ROM 52 from the measured value of the varying time timer MT1 of the timer storage unit 144 in step S122. Then, the process proceeds to step S123, and the subtraction result of the variable time timer MT1 in the timer storage unit 144 is compared with “0”. Here, when “MT1 = 0” is detected, the end of the special symbol game is determined, and the special symbol game is ended based on transmitting the variation stop command “A000 (h)” to the effect control circuit 70 in step S124. In step S125, “3” is set in the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143.
[2-4-4] Special Symbol Fluctuation Stop Process FIG. 42 shows details of the special symbol fluctuation stop process in step S64. This special symbol variation stop process is executed when the special symbol process flag is set to “3”, and the CPU 51 stops the variation display of the special symbol in step S131. The special symbol variation stop is performed based on the setting result of the special symbol recorded in the special symbol storage unit 142. When the probability variation big hit is determined, the special symbol on the special symbol display 32 is the probability variation big hit symbol “3”. Is stopped and displayed, and when the normal big hit is determined, the normal big hit symbol “5” is stopped and displayed, and when either outreach or complete outage is determined, either the out symbol “1”, “2” or “4” Is stopped and displayed.

When the CPU 51 finishes displaying the variation of the special symbol at step S131, the CPU 51 sets the wait time initial value (for example, 2.0 sec) to the wait time timer MT2 of the timer storage unit 144 at step S132, and the flag storage unit 143 at step S133. Set “4” in the special figure process flag. The initial value of this wait time is recorded in advance in the ROM 52, and if a special symbol game is put on hold, the next special symbol game will be executed after the wait time has elapsed since the end of this special symbol game. Be started.
[2-4-5] Wait Process FIG. 43 shows details of the wait process in step S65. This wait process is executed when the special figure process flag is set to “4”, and the CPU 51 records in advance in the ROM 52 from the measured value of the wait time timer MT2 of the timer storage unit 144 in step S141. The remaining wait time is updated by subtracting the unit value ΔT. In step S142, the result of subtraction of the wait time timer MT2 in the timer storage unit 144 is compared with “0”. When it is determined that “MT2 = 0”, the process proceeds to step S143.

  When proceeding to step S143, the CPU 51 determines the setting state of the big hit flag in the flag storage unit 143. If it is determined that the big hit flag in the flag storage unit 143 has been reset to the OFF state, the process proceeds to step S144, and the special figure process flag in the flag storage unit 143 is set to “0”.

When the CPU 51 determines in step S143 that the big hit flag of the flag storage unit 143 is set to the on state, the CPU 51 sets an initial value “0” in the big hit round counter MN1 of the counter storage unit 145 in step S145. The jackpot round counter MN1 measures the number of continuations of the jackpot round. When the CPU 51 initializes the jackpot round counter MN1 of the counter storage unit 145 in step S145, the CPU 51 proceeds to step S146, and the first jackpot round command “ B000 (h) "is set. Then, the setting result of the big hit round command “B000 (h)” is transmitted to the effect control circuit 70 in step S147, and “5” is set to the special figure process flag in the flag storage unit 143 in step S148.
[2-4-6] Jackpot Game Processing FIG. 44 shows details of the jackpot game processing in step S66. This jackpot game process is executed when the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143 is set to “5”, and the CPU 51 executes the jackpot round process in step S151. In this big hit round process, the special winning opening 26 is opened until the upper limit value (for example, 10) of the game balls are won in the special winning opening 26 or the opening time of the special winning opening 26 reaches the upper limit (for example, 30 sec). The CPU 51 closes the special winning opening 26 when it is determined in the big hit round process in step S151 that the upper limit value of the game ball has won in the special winning opening 26 or the opening time of the special winning opening 26 has reached the upper limit. In step S152, it is determined that the current big hit round has ended.

  When the CPU 51 determines in step S152 that the current big hit round has ended, the unit value “1” recorded in advance in the ROM 52 is added to the big hit round counter MN1 in the counter storage unit 145 in step S153. In step S154, the interval command “B100 (h)” is set, and in step S155, the interval command setting result is transmitted to the effect control circuit 70. Each of the interval command setting process and the transmission process is performed based on the end of each big hit round, and the interval command “" is sent from the CPU 51 to the effect control circuit 70 at the end of the final 15th big hit round. B100 (h) "is transmitted.

When the CPU 51 transmits an interval command to the effect control circuit 70 in step S155, the CPU 51 sets an initial value (for example, 3.0 sec) of the interval time recorded in advance in the ROM 52 in the interval time timer MT3 of the timer storage unit 144 in step S156. Then, the process proceeds to step S157, and “6” is set in the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143.
[2-4-7] Interval Processing FIG. 45 shows details of the interval processing in step S67. This interval process is executed when the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143 is set to “6”, and the CPU 51 records in advance from the interval time timer MT3 of the timer storage unit 144 to the ROM 52 in step S161. The remaining interval time is measured by subtracting the unit time ΔT.

  When the CPU 51 subtracts the interval time timer MT3 of the timer storage unit 144 in step S161, the CPU 51 compares the subtraction result of the interval time timer MT3 of the timer storage unit 144 with the limit value “0” recorded in advance in the ROM 52 in step S162. If “MT3 = 0” is determined here, the process proceeds to step S163, and the big hit round counter MN1 of the counter storage unit 145 is compared with the final value “15”.

  When the CPU 51 determines “MN1 <final value” in step S163, it sets a big hit round command in step S164. In step S165, the setting result of the big hit round command is transmitted to the effect control circuit 70, and in step S166, “5” is set in the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143. This jackpot round command is set according to the jackpot round counter MN1 of the counter storage unit 145. For example, when “MN = 1”, the second jackpot round command “B001 (h)” is set, and “ When MN = 14 ”, the final 15th big hit round command“ B00E (h) ”is set.

When the CPU 51 determines “MN1 = final value (15)” in step S163, it resets the big hit flag in the flag storage unit 143 to an off state in step S167. Then, the process proceeds to step S168, and “0” is set in the special figure process flag of the flag storage unit 143. FIG. 46 shows the transmission timings of the jackpot round command and the interval command. The jackpot round command is transmitted when each jackpot round starts, and the interval command is sent when each interval starts (each jackpot round is Sent when finished).

[13-3-1] Decoration Symbol Game Start Processing Each of FIGS. 52 and 53 shows details of the decoration symbol game start processing in step S264, and the CPU 71 changes from the command storage unit 151 in step S281 in FIG. The reception result of the start command is detected, and the EXT data is detected from the detection result of the fluctuation start command. In step S282, the process data table of FIG. 16 is detected from the ROM 72, and a process data number corresponding to the detection result of the EXT data is selected from the process data table. Next, the process proceeds to step S283 in FIG. 52, and process data corresponding to the selection result of the process data number is selected from the process data table in FIG. For example, when the detection result of the EXT data is “40 (h)”, the process data number P40 is selected, and when the process data number P40 is selected, the process data # 40 is selected.

  52, when the process data is selected in step S283 in FIG. 52, the initial value “0” recorded in advance in the ROM 72 is set in the variable time timer ST1 of the timer storage unit 153 in step S284. In step S285, the decorative design game video data table shown in FIG. 22 is detected from the ROM 72, and a video data number corresponding to the process data number selection result is selected from the video data table. For example, when the process data number P40 is selected, the video data number # V40 is selected.

  When the CPU 71 selects a video data number in step S285 of FIG. 52, the CPU 71 transmits the selection result of the video data number to the display control circuit 80 in step S286. When the display control circuit 80 receives the selection result of the video data number, the display control circuit 80 selects the video data for the decoration symbol game corresponding to the reception result of the video data number from the VROM, and develops the selection result of the video data in the RAM.

  When the CPU 71 transmits the selection result of the video data number in step S286, the CPU 71 detects the reception result of the symbol information command from the command storage unit 151 in step S287. Then, the process proceeds to step S288, and it is determined whether or not the detection result of the symbol information command is a probable big hit. For example, when the detection result of the symbol information command is “9000 (h)”, it is determined that the probability variation big hit is made, and the decorative symbol is set to the combination of the probability variation big hit in the probability variation big hit symbol setting processing in step S289. Next, the process proceeds to step S 290, and the setting result of the probability variation big hit symbol combination is recorded in the fixed symbol storage unit 155.

  FIG. 54 shows details of the probability variation jackpot symbol setting process in step S289, and the CPU 71 detects the probability variation jackpot symbol table in FIG. 25A from the ROM 72 in step S331. Then, in step S332 of FIG. 54, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154, and the process proceeds to step S333. Here, a symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR1 is selected from the probability variation big hit symbol table, and each of the symbol element in the left column, the symbol element in the middle column, and the symbol element in the right column is set as a selection result of the symbol element. The decorative design is set to a combination of probable big hits. For example, when the detection result of the random counter SR1 is “200”, the symbol element “7” is selected, and the symbol element of each column is set to “7”, so that the decorative symbol is set to the combination “777” for the probability variation jackpot. Then, the decorative symbol is recorded in the fixed symbol storage unit 155 with the combination “777” of the probability variation big hit.

  When CPU 71 determines in step S288 of FIG. 52 that the detection result of the symbol information command is not a probable big hit symbol, it determines in step S291 whether the detection result of the symbol information command is a normal jackpot symbol. For example, when the detection result of the symbol information command is “9001 (h)”, it is determined that the symbol is a normal jackpot symbol, and the decorative symbol is set to a combination of a normal jackpot in the normal jackpot symbol setting process in step S292. Then, the process proceeds to step S293, and the setting result of the normal jackpot combination is recorded in the fixed symbol storage unit 155.

  FIG. 55 shows the details of the normal jackpot symbol setting process in step S292. The CPU 71 detects the normal jackpot symbol table in FIG. 25B from the ROM 72 in step S341. In step S342 of FIG. 55, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154, and the process proceeds to step S343. Here, a symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR1 is selected from the normal jackpot symbol table, and each of the symbol element in the left column, the symbol element in the middle column, and the symbol element in the right column is set as the selection result of the symbol element. The decoration pattern is usually set to a big hit combination. For example, when the detection result of the random counter SR1 is “200”, the symbol element “8” is selected, and the symbol element of each column is set to “8”, so that the decorative symbol is normally set to the combination “888” of the big hit Then, the decorative symbols are recorded in the determined symbol storage unit 155 as a normal jackpot combination “888”.

  When CPU 71 determines in step S291 in FIG. 52 that the detection result of the symbol information command is not a normal big hit symbol, CPU 71 detects the reception result of the change start command from command storage unit 151 in step S294. Then, in step S295, the EXT data is detected from the detection result of the fluctuation start command, and the detection result of the EXT data is determined as a detach reach determination value “10 (h)” “20 (h)” “30 (h) ) ”And“ 40 (h) ”. Here, when it is determined that the detection result of the EXT data is the same as any of the outlier reach determination values “10 (h)” to “40 (h)”, the process proceeds to the outlier reach symbol setting process in step S296, and the decorative symbol is displayed. Is set to the combination of outreach. Then, the process proceeds to step S297, and the setting result of the outreach combination is recorded in the fixed symbol storage unit 155.

  FIG. 56 shows the details of the outreach symbol setting process in step S296. The CPU 71 detects the reach symbol table in FIG. 25C from the ROM 72 in step S351, and from the ROM 72 in FIG. (A) of the unreachable symbol table is detected. 56. In step S353 of FIG. 56, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154. In step S354, the symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR1 is selected from the reach symbol table. Each of the symbol elements in the right column is set as a common symbol element selection result. For example, when “SR1 = 200”, the symbol element “7” is selected, and the symbol element in the left column and the symbol element in the right column are set to a common “7”.

  When the CPU 71 sets each of the symbol elements in the left column and the right column in step S354, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR2 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S355. In step S356, a symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR2 is selected from the unreached symbol table, and the symbol element in the middle row is set as the symbol element selection result. For example, when “SR2 = 50”, the symbol element “3” is selected, and the symbol element in the middle row is set to “3”.

  When the CPU 71 sets the symbol elements in the middle row in step S356 in FIG. 56, the process proceeds to step S357. Here, the setting result of the symbol element in the middle row is compared with the setting result of the symbol element in the left column, and when it is determined that they are different, the routine proceeds to step 297 in FIG. For example, when the setting result of the symbol element in the left column is “7” and the setting result of the symbol element in the middle column is “8”, the decorative symbol is recorded in the fixed symbol storage unit 155 with the combination of “787”.

  When CPU 71 determines in step S357 of FIG. 56 that the setting result of the middle row symbol elements and the setting result of the left row symbol elements are the same, in step 358, the middle row symbol elements are set in step S356. Change to the symbol element next to the symbol element. For example, when the setting result of the symbol element in the left column and the setting result of the symbol element in the middle column are “8”, the symbol element in the middle column is changed to “1” next to “8”, and the fixed symbol storage unit In 155, the decorative symbol is recorded as a combination “818” of the detachment reach.

  When the CPU 71 determines in step S295 in FIG. 52 that the detection result of the EXT data is different from any of the outlier reach determination values “10 (h)” to “40 (h)”, the complete out symbol setting in step S298 is performed. Proceed to processing, and set the decorative pattern to a completely out of combination. Then, the process proceeds to step S299, and the setting result of the completely out of combination is recorded in the confirmed symbol storage unit 155.

  FIG. 57 shows the details of the complete out symbol design processing in step S298. The CPU 71 detects the left symbol table in FIG. 25D from the ROM 72 in step S361, and from the ROM 72 in FIG. 57 in step S362. The middle symbol table of (b) is detected, and the right symbol table of FIG. 27 is detected from the ROM 72 in step S363 of FIG. In step S364 of FIG. 57, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154. In step S365, the symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR1 is selected from the left symbol table, and the symbol element in the left column is selected. Set to. For example, when “SR1 = 200”, the symbol element “7” is selected, and the symbol element in the left column is set to “7”.

  When the CPU 71 sets the symbol elements in the left column in step S365, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR2 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S366. In step S367, a symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR2 is selected from the medium symbol table, and the symbol element in the middle row is set as the symbol element selection result. For example, when “SR2 = 100”, the symbol element “5” is selected, and the symbol element in the middle row is set to “5”.

  When the CPU 71 sets the middle row of symbol elements in step S367, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR3 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S368. In step S369, a symbol element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR3 is selected from the right symbol table, and the symbol element in the right column is set as the symbol element selection result. For example, when “SR3 = 50”, the symbol element “6” is selected, and the symbol element in the right column is set to “6”.

  When the CPU 71 sets the symbol elements in the right column in step S369, the CPU 71 proceeds to step S370. Here, the setting result of the symbol element in the left column is compared with the setting result of the symbol element in the right column, and when it is determined that they are different, the process proceeds to step 299 in FIG. For example, when the setting result of the symbol element in the left column is “8”, the setting result of the symbol element in the right column is “7”, and the setting result of the symbol element in the middle column is “1”, the decoration symbol is stored in the fixed symbol storage unit 155. Is recorded as a completely out-of-combination combination “817”.

  When CPU 71 determines in step S370 in FIG. 57 that the setting result of the left row of symbol elements and the setting result of the right row of symbol elements are the same, in step S371, the right row of symbol elements is set in step S369. Change to the symbol element next to the symbol element. For example, when the setting result of the symbol element in the left column is “8”, the setting result of the symbol element in the right column is “8”, and the setting result of the symbol element in the middle column is “1”, the symbol element in the right column is “8”. To the next “1”, and the decoration symbol is recorded in the confirmed symbol storage unit 155 with the combination “811” that is completely off.

  When the CPU 71 sets the fixed symbol storage unit 155 in any of step S290, step S293, step S297, and step S299 in FIG. 52, whether or not the process data setting result is process data # 00 in step S300 in FIG. Judging. As shown in FIG. 65, the process data # 00 is to stop the change of the notice symbol in an incomplete combination, and the CPU 71 sets the process data in step S300 in FIG. When it is determined that it is 00, the process proceeds to the notice symbol setting process 1 in step S301. In step S301, the notice symbol setting process 1 sets the notice symbol to an incomplete combination, and in step S302, the result of setting the incomplete combination is recorded in the notice symbol storage unit 157.

  FIG. 58 shows the details of the notice symbol setting process 1 in step S301. The CPU 71 detects the unfinished left symbol table in FIG. 28C from the ROM 72 in step S381, and from the ROM 72 in step S382 in FIG. The incomplete symbol table in FIG. 29 is detected, and the incomplete right symbol table in FIG. 30 is detected from the ROM 72 in step S383 in FIG. In step S384 in FIG. 58, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154, and in step S385, the notice pattern element in the left column corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR1 is selected from the unfinished left symbol table. . For example, when “SR1 = 200”, the notice element “head C” in the left column is selected.

  When the CPU 71 selects the notice element in the left column in step S385, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR2 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S386. Then, the process proceeds to step S387, and the middle row notice element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR2 is selected from the incomplete symbol table. For example, when “SR2 = 100”, the notice element “body B” in the middle row is selected.

  When the CPU 71 selects the notice element in the middle row in step S387, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR3 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S388. Then, the process proceeds to step S389, and the notice element in the right column corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR3 is selected from the incomplete right symbol table. For example, when “SR3 = 50”, the notice element “leg C” in the right column is selected.

  When the CPU 71 selects the notice element in the right column in step S389, it determines in step S390 whether the selection result of the notice element in the left column and the selection result of the symbol element in the right column are a combination immediately before completion. Here, when it is determined that the two are not the combination just before completion, the routine proceeds to step 302 in FIG. For example, when the selection result of the notice element in the left column is “head A”, the selection result of the notice element in the right column is “leg C”, and the selection result of the notice element in the middle column is “body A”, the left column It is determined that the selection result of the previous notice element and the selection result of the right notice element in the right column are not the combination immediately before completion, and the combination “head A trunk A leg C is not completed in the notice symbol storage unit 157. Is recorded.

  When the CPU 71 determines in step S390 in FIG. 58 that the selection result of the left column notice element and the right column notice element is the combination immediately before completion, the CPU 71 selects the right column notice element in step S389. Change to the next notice element after the notice element. For example, when the selection result of the notification element in the left column is “head C”, the setting result of the notification element in the right column is “leg C”, and the setting result of the notification element in the middle column is “body A”, the left column It is determined that the selection result of the previous notice element and the selection result of the right notice element in the right column are a combination immediately before completion. In this case, the selection result of the notice element in the right column is changed to “leg part A” next to “leg part C”, and the combination “head C trunk part A in which the notice symbol is not completed in the notice symbol storage part 157 is changed. Recorded in leg A ”.

  When the CPU 71 determines in step S300 in FIG. 53 that the process data setting result is not process data # 00, the CPU 71 determines in step S303 whether or not the process data setting result is process data # 01. As shown in FIG. 65, the process data # 01 is to stop the change of the notice symbol by the combination of the collapsed completion, and the CPU 71 confirms that the process data setting result is the process data # 01 in step S303 in FIG. Is determined, the process proceeds to the notice symbol setting process 2 in step S304. In step S304, the notice symbol setting process 2 sets the notice symbol as a combination of completion failure. In step S305, the result of setting the combination of completion failure is recorded in the notice symbol storage unit 157.

  FIG. 59 shows the details of the notice symbol setting process 2 in step S304. The CPU 71 detects the completed collapsed symbol table in FIG. 28B from the ROM 72 in step S401, and the diagram from the ROM 72 in step S402 in FIG. 29 incomplete symbol tables are detected. In step S403 in FIG. 59, the measurement result of the random counter SR1 is detected from the counter storage unit 154. In step S404, the notice pattern element in the left column and the right column in accordance with the detection result of the random counter SR1 are detected from the completed collapsed symbol table. Select each of the notice elements. For example, when “SR1 = 100”, the notice element “head B” in the left column and the notice element “leg B” in the right column are selected.

  When the CPU 71 selects the notice element in the left column and the notice element in the right column in step S404, the CPU 71 detects the measurement result of the random counter SR2 from the counter storage unit 154 in step S405. Then, the process proceeds to step S406, and the middle row notice element corresponding to the detection result of the random counter SR2 is selected from the incomplete symbol table. For example, when “SR2 = 150”, the notice element “body C” in the middle row is selected.

  If the CPU 71 selects the notice element in the middle row in step S406, the process proceeds to step S407. Here, whether the selection result of the notice element in the left column, the selection result of the notice element in the middle column, and the selection result of the notice element in the right column is a combination of completion, and the three parties do not become a combination of completion. Is determined, the process proceeds to step 305 in FIG. For example, when the selection result of the notice element in the left row is “head A”, the choice result of the notice element in the right column is “leg A”, and the selection result of the notice element in the middle row is “body B”, three parties Is determined not to be a completed combination, and the notice symbol storage unit 157 records the notice symbol as a combination “head A trunk B leg A”.

  If the CPU 71 determines in step S407 in FIG. 59 that the selection result of the left column notice element, the selection result of the middle line notice element, and the selection result of the right column notice element is a combination of completion, the CPU 71 in step S408 Is changed to the next notice element after the notice element selected in step S406. For example, when the selection result of the notice element in the left column is “head C”, the result of setting the notice element in the right column is “leg C”, and the setting result of the symbol element in the middle row is “body C”, three parties Is determined to be a complete combination. In this case, the selection result of the notice element in the middle row is changed to “torso A” next to “torso C”, and the notice symbol is stored in the notice symbol storage unit 157 in the combination “head C torso A”. Recorded as “leg C”.

  If the CPU 71 determines in step S303 in FIG. 53 that the process data setting result is not the process data # 01, the CPU 71 determines in step S306 whether the process data setting result is either the process data # 10 or the process data # 11. Judging. As shown in FIG. 68, each of the process data # 10 and the process data # 11 is to stop changing the notice symbol in an unfinished combination. The CPU 71 displays the process data setting result in step S306 in FIG. When it is determined that the process data is either process data # 10 or process data # 11, the process proceeds to the notice symbol setting process 1 in step S307. The notice symbol setting process 1 in step S307 is to set the notice symbol to an incomplete combination in the same procedure as in step S301. When the notice symbol is set to an incomplete combination in step S307, the CPU 71 proceeds to step S308. Then, the setting result of the incomplete combination is recorded in the notice symbol storage unit 157.

  When the CPU 71 determines in step S306 in FIG. 53 that the process data setting result is neither process data # 10 nor process data # 11, in step S309, the process data setting result is the process data # 20 and process data # 21. It is determined whether the process data is either process data # 30 or process data # 31. Each of these process data # 20 to process data # 31, as shown in FIG. 68 and FIG. 70, is to stop changing the decorative design with the combination of completion after stopping the decorative design with the combination of the temporary outreach. When the CPU 71 determines in step S309 in FIG. 53 that the process data setting result is any one of process data # 20 to process data # 31, the CPU 71 proceeds to the notice symbol setting process 3 in step S310. Here, the notice symbol is set to the combination of completion, and the result of setting the combination of completion is recorded in the notice symbol storage unit 157 in step S311.

This step S312 is to set the decoration symbol as a combination of outreach in the same procedure as step S296 in FIG. 52. When the CPU 71 sets the decoration symbol as a combination of outreach in step S312 of FIG. 53, the process proceeds to step S313. Then, the setting result of the combination of outliers is recorded in the temporary symbol storage unit 156.

In this effect element table 3, as shown in FIG. 31 (c), three types of notice symbol A, notice symbol B and notice symbol C are set as choices of effect elements, and the setting of process data # 30 is set. Sometimes the effect element is selected from the notice symbol A to the notice symbol C.

  If the CPU 71 determines in step S314 in FIG. 53 that the process data setting result is out of the reach process data # 30, the CPU 71 compares the process data setting result with the jackpot process data # 31 in step S316. As shown in FIG. 72, this process data # 31 is for generating an effect image in the decorative symbol game, and the CPU 71 indicates that the process data setting result is process data # 31 in step S316 of FIG. When it is determined, the process proceeds to step S317, the reception result of the symbol information command is detected from the command storage unit 151, and it is determined whether or not the detection result of the symbol information command is “9001 (h)”.
