Description

The slot machine according to means 1 of the present invention is the slot machine according to claim 1,
The permissible stage suggesting effect executing means selects one of the staging modes (characters) from the plurality of types of staging modes (characters a to e) including the special mode (character d). Including a production mode selection means for selecting a production mode (character);
The production mode selection means selects the special mode (character d) on the condition that the allowable level (setting 6) having the highest advantage among the multiple types of allowable levels (setting values) is set. It is characterized by.
According to this feature, it is determined that the allowable stage having the highest advantage is set by executing the allowable stage suggesting effect in a special manner. In addition, by providing an allowance stage suggestion effect in a special manner that determines that the most advantageous allowance stage is set, the player's willingness to continue the game can be maintained more effectively.

The slot machine according to means 2 of the present invention is the slot machine according to claim 1 or means 1 , wherein
The permissible stage suggesting effect execution means selects any one of the staging modes (characters) from a plurality of types of staging modes (characters a to e) as a rendering mode (character) of the permissible stage suggesting performance (continuous performance A). Including production mode selection means,
The production mode selection means is the first type of production mode (in the case of a tolerance stage (settings 1, 3, 5) having an odd-numbered highest advantage, counting from the lowest tolerance stage (setting 1). Character b) is selected at a higher rate than the second type of performance mode (character c), and the even-numbered tolerance level (setting 2, In the case of 4, 6), the second type of production mode (character c) is selected at a higher rate than the first type of production mode (character b).
According to this feature, depending on whether the performance mode of the permissible stage suggesting effect belongs to the first type or the second type, it is a permissible step that is oddly advantageous depending on whether it belongs to the second type, It is possible to improve the accuracy of the estimation of the allowable stage by being able to estimate to some extent whether the allowable stage is advantageous to the even number. It is no longer possible to determine whether there is an even-numbered advantageous tolerance stage, so that the player's willingness to continue the game in order to guess the tolerance stage can be maintained more effectively. . Furthermore, the combination of the ratio at which the production mode belonging to the first type and the production mode belonging to the second type are executed and other speculation elements becomes complicated, and there is doubt about the estimated allowable level, so that the user can be sure. It becomes difficult and the difficulty of guessing can be increased.

The slot machine according to means 3 of the present invention is the slot machine according to claim 1, means 1 or 2 ,
The game control means (main control unit 41)
A re-game prize with a re-play (replay game) that can be played without using the game value before the display result of the variable display device (reels 2L, 2C, 2R) is derived. A pre-determining means (internal lottery) for deciding whether or not to allow a plurality of types of winnings including (regamer) to occur,
When a first winning (any cherry) occurs in an initial state (initial game state) controlled in accordance with establishment of predetermined initialization conditions (setting value change (RAM initialization), bonus end) The pre-determining means (internal lottery) makes a determination that the re-game winning (re-gamer) is allowed to occur with a higher probability than the initial state (initial game state), and sets the bet amount. Re-game height where the grant rate per game (medal payout rate per game), which is the ratio of the number of game values obtained as a result of the game to the number of game values used in the game, is 100% or more Replay high probability state control means for controlling to a probability state (RT (6));
When a second winning (replay (1), bell) occurs in the initial state (initial game state), the grant rate per game (medal payout rate per game) is less than 100% And a normal gaming state control means for controlling to the normal gaming state (RT (5)) which does not shift to the re-gaming high probability state (RT (6)),
When a predetermined end condition (digestion of a prescribed number of games, winning of special role) is established in the normal game state (RT (5)), the normal game state (RT (5)) is ended and the initial state Normal game state ending means for shifting to (initial game state);
Including
The permissible stage suggestion executing means is controlled to the normal gaming state (RT (5)), and then the permissible stage is provided on the condition that the predetermined end condition (digestion of the prescribed number of games, winning special role) is satisfied. It is characterized by performing stage suggestion effects (effects that suggest set values).
According to this feature, in the initial state, there is a possibility of shifting to a replay high probability state that is advantageous to the player by the occurrence of the first winning, while the player is caused by the occurrence of the second winning. There is also a possibility of shifting to a normal gaming state that is disadvantageous to the user. When the second prize is generated in the initial state, the game state is disadvantageous for the player, and the game state shifts to the normal game state that does not shift to the replay high probability state. It will shift to the initial state. For this reason, even if the transition to the normal gaming state is made without shifting to the replay high probability state in the initial state, the transition to the initial state is performed again thereafter, so there is a possibility that the transition to the replay high probability state may be periodically performed. The state will come, and the player's expectation for the re-playing high probability state can be maintained. In other words, by periodically controlling to the initial state, there is a possibility of shifting to either the high game probability state or the normal game state, so that the game flow can be sharpened.
Further, since the permissible stage suggestion effect is executed after the predetermined end condition is satisfied after the control to the normal game state, that is, the state that is disadvantageous for the player is ended, the player can play the game. The player's willingness to continue the game can be maintained until the normal gaming state with a high rate of completion is completed.
The replay high probability state may be, for example, continued until a special prize accompanying transition to a special gaming state is allowed or a special prize is generated, It may be terminated when a termination condition such as reaching a specific general prize out of a general prize other than a special prize is achieved. In addition, when it is terminated under conditions other than the occurrence of a special prize and when a special prize occurs, the game may be shifted to the initial state. Even if a transition is made to the probability state, it is possible to shift to either the high-probability game state or the normal game state by being controlled to the initial state periodically, so the game flow can be sharpened. .
In addition, as a predetermined end condition that the normal gaming state is to be terminated, for example, after the normal gaming state is started, a predetermined number of games is reached, or a predetermined winning is generated, For example, the display result of the variable display device may be a predetermined display result, and when these conditions are satisfied, the normal gaming state may be terminated and the initial state may be shifted.
Also, the predetermined initialization condition is that the game state is initialized, that is, the storage means such as a RAM storing the game state is initialized, the special game state is ended, the first end condition is The end of the high re-probability state due to establishment of the above, the end of the normal gaming state due to establishment of the second end condition, and the like.
Further, the first prize or the second prize may be the re-game prize, or may be a small bonus prize accompanied by a game value.

The slot machine according to means 4 of the present invention is the slot machine according to any one of claims 1 and 1 to 3 ,
The game control means (main control unit 41) involves a transition to a special game state (BB) advantageous to the player before the display result of the variable display device (reels 2L, 2C, 2R) is derived. Decide whether or not to determine whether or not to allow the generation of multiple types of winnings including special winnings (BB (1) to (5)) and general winnings other than the special winnings (small role, replaying role) Including pre-determining means to
The pre-determining means simultaneously determines whether to allow the occurrence of a specific general prize (orange, plum, watermelon) among the general prizes (small role, replaying role) and allow the occurrence of the special prize. Is possible and
The allowable stage suggesting effect executing means includes:
When it is determined that the occurrence of the specific general prize (a combination including orange, plum, and watermelon) is allowed, an effect that determines effect content (combination of effect patterns) over a predetermined number of games (5 games) of 2 or more Content determination means;
Continuous permissible stage suggesting effect executing means for executing a continuous permissible stage suggesting effect (continuous effect A) based on the effect content (effect pattern) determined by the effect content determining means over the predetermined number of games (5 games);
After the start of the continuous permissible stage suggestion effect (continuous effect A), it is allowed to newly generate a specific general prize (a role including orange, plum, watermelon) before reaching the predetermined number of games (5 games). Production content changing means for changing the remaining production content (production pattern) when is determined,
It is characterized by including.
According to this feature, the continuous permissible stage suggestion stage starts when it is determined to allow the occurrence of a specific general prize that may be simultaneously determined to allow the occurrence of a special prize, The allowable stage is suggested by the continuous allowable stage suggestion effect, and the player's sense of expectation that the occurrence of a special prize is allowed can be enhanced. Furthermore, after the start of the continuous permissible stage suggestion effect indicating the possibility of the occurrence of a special prize, and before the end, it is determined that the generation of a specific general prize is permitted, that is, the special prize is awarded. If there is an event that increases the possibility of being allowed to occur, the content of the production of the continuous permissible stage suggestion effect changes accordingly, so a special prize is awarded according to the event that occurred during the continuous permissible stage suggestion production It is possible to effectively increase the player's expectation for the occurrence of the game.
