  FIG. 6 shows the internal structure of the spinning machine A. The housing 1 is a box formed by a top plate 1a, side plates 1b and 1c, and a bottom plate 1d. The reels 8a to 8c, a medal hopper 305, a power supply device 400a, and the like are accommodated therein. A main board box 100 a that houses the main control board 100 is attached above the reel 8. Sub-boards such as the effect control board 200 are also arranged around the main board box 100a. The medal hopper 305 is a game medium payout device that is driven by the hopper motor 302 and discharges the stored medals stored in the tank toward a discharge passage (not shown) communicating with the medal payout port 21 through the medal discharge port 305b.

  A hopper motor 302, a medal payout sensor 303, and a full detection device 304 are connected to the main control board 100 via a payout relay board 301 and a payout control board 300. The payout control board 300 receives the payout control command from the main control board 100 via the payout relay board 301 and drives and controls the hopper motor 302. The medal payout sensor 303 is installed in the discharge passage, detects a game medal paid out from the medal hopper 305, and gives a detection signal to the main control board 100 via the payout relay board 301. The main control board 100 can transmit a payout control command for designating the payout number to the payout control board 300 when it is necessary to pay out a game medal by winning.

The auxiliary tank 306 is provided with a full detection device 304 that monitors the full state of the auxiliary tank 306, and the main control board 100 can receive a detection signal from the full detection device 304 via the dispensing relay board 301. ing.

FIG. 7 shows a schematic configuration of the effect control board 200.
The effect control board 200 includes a microcomputer having a sub CPU 206 and a microcomputer 205 having a sub ROM 207 and a sub RAM 208, and constitutes a sub control unit of the present invention. The microcomputer 205 is provided with an interrupt controller circuit 210 that applies an interrupt signal to the CTC 209 and the sub CPU 206. In addition, the effect control board 200 is provided with an I / O port circuit 211 and a counter circuit 212 for inputting / outputting signals to / from the effect I / F board 201.
In the sub ROM 207, in addition to an effect control program in which a series of effect control control procedures are described, a winning combination push order notification effect selection table (not shown) used during the AT mode, an ART game number of times addition lottery table, an ART game Predetermined data required for effect operation control such as a first effect table and a second effect table (see FIG. 25) for notifying the progress of the game and the change in the number of games are stored. In the sub-RAM 208, a work area for storing data necessary for performing an effect such as an effect lottery random value used for effect-related lottery and game state (effect state) information on the effect control unit side is formed. ing.

Similarly to the counter circuit 114, the counter circuit 212 includes a random number generation circuit and a sampling circuit. The sub CPU 206 acquires the numerical value generated by the random number generation circuit as an effect random number value by sending an instruction to the sampling circuit according to the effect processing state (for example, the timing at which the effect control command is received). The random number for use is mainly used for a lottery for production.
The effect control board 200 has a function of receiving an effect control command from the main control board 100 and performing an effect process on light and sound, and outputs music and audio through the upper speaker 4 and the lower speakers 22a and 22b. An acoustic control signal is output to the acoustic generator 213. In addition, an LED board 204 on which an LED group constituting the decorative lamp unit 6 is mounted is attached to the inner side of the front door 5, and the effect control board 200 outputs an LED drive control signal to the LED board 204.

  The effect control board 200 transmits the liquid crystal control command associated with the effect control command to the liquid crystal control board 203 that performs image control of the liquid crystal display device 3 at a timing when image reproduction to be displayed on the liquid crystal display device 3 is necessary. The effect control board 200 is determined by lottery or uniquely from a plurality of types of effect contents prepared in advance based on the effect control command sent from the main control board 100, and a control signal for instructing execution of the determined contents Is transmitted to the liquid crystal control board 203, the sound generator 213, and the LED board 204 at a necessary timing, and the reproduction of the sound effect and the decoration lamp unit together with the effect image of the liquid crystal display device 3 corresponding to various effect contents. 6 LED lighting / flashing drive is realized. Therefore, under the control of the sub-control unit having the CPU 206 as the main component, various production contents are developed in a time-series manner according to the production scenario based on the motif set in the spinning game of the spinning machine A. The excitement of body games can be enlivened.

  As shown in FIG. 4, a hall computer HC (a computer that comprehensively manages pachinko hall gaming machines) is connected to the main control board 100 via an external concentrated terminal board 401. Game information can be externally output to the hall computer HC. Further, the main control board 100 is connected to a rotating drum setting board 402 so that a detection signal from the rotating drum setting board 402 can be received. The rotation setting board 402 has a setting switch (not shown) for changing the “6-step setting” for setting the payout rate to one of six levels, and a reset switch (not shown) for canceling the game operation error. Etc., and the operation detection signal of each switch on the rotating drum setting board 402 is given to the main control board 100.

The main control side main processing procedure in the main control board 100 will be described with reference to the drawings. This processing procedure includes a series of flows necessary for one game.
FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of the main process on the main control side. This main process is executed under the control of the main CPU 102, and the main body of the process execution will be described as a main control board (main control unit) 100.

  When power is turned on to the revolving gaming machine A, a power-on signal is sent from the power board 400, and the main control board 100 receives the power-on signal and starts main processing on the main control side. After the initial setting process in step S1 is performed when the power is turned on, the normal operation process (steps S2 to S17) is performed. First, a RAM initialization process (step S2) is performed. In the RAM initialization process, predetermined data used at the end of the previous game is cleared, and a work area necessary for the current game is secured.

  Next, a game state flag generation process is performed (step S3). In the game state flag generation process, the type of game state of the current game (normal game, ART game, bonus carryover game, bonus game, etc.) is confirmed, and the corresponding game state flag (normal game flag, ART game flag). , Bonus flag, bonus operation flag, etc.). As a result, the game state of the current game is determined, and processing according to the game state is performed. While the ART game flag is set, the RT2 gaming state in which the winning probability of replay is increased.

  A game medal insertion process (step S4) is performed. In the game medal insertion process, detection of game medals inserted into the main body of the gaming machine, management of credits, and automatic game medals when there is a request for re-games. In addition to performing insertion setting processing, etc., it is monitored whether or not a predetermined number of game medals required for starting the game have been inserted. When the prescribed number of game medals are inserted or the credit setting is confirmed, the game start condition is established, and the player performs the depressing operation of the rotation-rotation start lever 15 while maintaining this condition, that is, the rotation It waits for an operation detection signal from the rotation start switch 15a to be sent. By receiving the operation detection signal from the rotation rotation start switch 15a, the main control board 100 acquires the random number for internal lottery based on the counter value of the counter circuit 114 (step S5).

An internal lottery process based on the acquired random number for internal lottery is performed (step S6). In the internal lottery process, an internal lottery is performed based on the acquired internal random number for lottery and the combination lottery table corresponding to the current gaming state, and winning combination information (winning flag) corresponding to the lottery result is set in the main RAM 104. Remembered.
FIG. 16 shows a winning combination of a general winning combination, a bonus combination (big bonus game BB and regular bonus game RB), a small winning combination, and a lottery probability table. The internal lottery is executed based on the combination lottery table shown in FIG. In the role lottery table, lottery probabilities are set so that the payout rate differs according to each of the six stages, and FIG. 16 shows an example of them. FIG. 16 shows the lottery probabilities calculated based on the range of the lottery value assigned to each winning combination for the random number range (0 to 65535). The winning random number range is set so that small roles such as cherries and bonus combinations can be drawn at the same time. In this embodiment, two types of RTs, RT1 and RT2, occur, but the replay probability is substantially improved only by RT2, and the replay probability of the normal gaming state is only improved by about 1/100 in RT1. It is. The RT1 gaming state is provided to implement a 6-option replay game for shifting to the ART gaming state (RT2 gaming state). In the gaming state during the RT2 game, a lottery table during RT in which the replay lottery probability is set to 1 / 1.5, which is higher than 1 / 7.3 in the normal game, is used.

  In the present embodiment, two types of special games can be awarded: a big bonus game BB and a regular bonus game. The big bonus game BB has two types of special symbol combinations (blue 7-blue 7-blue 7 or red 7-red 7-red 7) established by different winning flags, and the lottery probability combining them Is 1/360. In an internal winning state in which different big bonus winning flags are set, if any special symbol combination is stopped on any of the five active winning lines, it is possible to shift to a big bonus game. In the case of a regular bonus combination, there is only one type of red 7-red 7-blue 7. The bonus combination is a so-called zero-sheet combination, and no prize medal is paid out when winning. When winning a bell, watermelon, or cherry, nine, six, or one award medal is paid out. The cherry win is established only by stopping at the effective winning position of the left-handed cylinder.

  The bell role is a combination of the stop order of the reels 8a to 8c (left turning cylinder → middle turning cylinder → right turning cylinder, left turning cylinder → right turning cylinder → middle turning cylinder, middle turning cylinder → left turning cylinder → right turning cylinder, There are six types of general small roles: medium turning drum → right turning cylinder → left turning cylinder, right turning cylinder → middle turning cylinder → left turning cylinder, right turning cylinder → left turning cylinder → middle turning cylinder). In the normal gaming state, the combined lottery probability of the bell role is 1/5, but during the bonus game, it becomes a so-called JAC role that can be won regardless of the stop order, and has a high probability of 1/1. Win. When the Bell as JAC wins, 13 prize medals are paid out. The six types of bell roles distinguished by the pressing order are AT roles (pushing order bell roles) that can be won by stopping each spinning cylinder in accordance with the pressing order notification by the sub-control unit in the ART game. In the normal gaming state, each of the six selections of bells is drawn based on a 1/30 lottery probability (combined lottery probability of all bells is 1/5), and any of the bells can be won. In the state, the push order is not notified, so in general, if a so-called forward push stop operation is performed that stops in order from the left turning cylinder to the middle / right turning cylinder, the pushing order is incorrect and a winning occurs. There will be more cases. In the ART gaming state, the winning combination probability of the AT combination is improved by a factor of six when the push order is notified by navigation.

  The replay is a combination of replay symbols RP1 and RP2 (RP1 or 2-RP2-RP1 or 2), and there are six types of replays in which the combinations of the stop orders of the reels 8a to 8c are different as in the case of the bell. These replays with different combinations of stop orders are used in a selection game based on the push order for transition to RT2 at RT1. In addition to the above combinations, chance combinations a and b are provided as special small combinations. The chance combination a consists of a combination of “blank” -bell-cherry and is used in an ART grant lottery. The chance combination b is drawn in the bonus game, and consists of a combination of blue 7-blue 7-blue 7 or red 7-red 7-red 7, and is used for the ART grant lottery.

  In the ART gaming state, a push order notification of AT small roles (6 types of bell roles) is carried out in the AT navigation control mode by the sub-control unit, and the selected AT small role is surely stopped, so that replay occurs. The frequency increases and consumption of medals is small, and it becomes possible to gradually increase the number of medals held during an ART game by acquiring a small role such as an AT small role. In other words, in the push order notification ART, when the bell role is elected, the stop order of the left, middle and right cylinders for aligning the bell role with the active line is determined, and unless stopped according to the determined order, Spindle stop control is performed so as not to stop at the effective line. The same push order is determined even when the 6-option replay is won, and stop control is executed so that replay does not occur in stop operations other than the determined order.

  In the internal winning state of the bonus combination, the bonus winning flag is set as a carryover combination that can be carried over to the next and subsequent games. For this reason, at the time of winning the bonus combination, the winning period is maintained during the game period until the bonus combination is won. On the other hand, the winning combination other than the bonus combination is set as a carry-over impossible combination in which the winning flag cannot be carried over to the next game. Even during bonus carryover games, lotteries are drawn as usual, but whether or not to win a combination of symbols corresponding to the winning small combination at this time is determined based on a predetermined pull-in priority order. . In the present embodiment, stop control is performed so as to preferentially draw in the order of “replay> small role> bonus role”.

  In the internal lottery process, a “game start command (including information relating to gaming state and winning information (lottery result information))” is set as an effect control command. The “information relating to the gaming state” included in the game start command includes information relating to the gaming state such as “in the normal game”, “in the ART game”, “in the bonus game”, and “in the bonus carryover game”.

  Next, a setting process at the time of rotation rotation start (rotation rotation start setting process) is performed (step S7). In the rotation start setting process, for example, a game start wait timer (4.1 seconds) is set as data required when starting the rotation of each reel 8a to 8c, or the rotation indicating the rotation state of the rotation The status flag is set to “rotating all cylinders”. Next, when the reel rotation start is performed, a “rotation start command” indicating rotation start is set as an effect control command, and each of the reels 8a to 8c shifts to the rotation state.

  After the reel rotation, when detection signals from the rotation rotation stop switches 16e, 16f, and 16g by the rotation operation of the rotation rotation rotation stop buttons 16a to 16c are output, the rotation cylinder to be stopped is stopped and controlled. Is performed (step S8). In the turning stop processing, the number of sliding symbols is calculated from a stop control table, which will be described later, based on the winning information and the stop operation procedure (stop operation timing) of the turning device, and the stop control of the turning device is performed based on this. This stop control process refers to the reel stop table stored in the ROM 103 based on the stop operation position where each reel has been stopped and the lottery result of the lottery process. This is done by stopping the rotation. The reel stop position is determined so as to be drawn and stopped within a predetermined number of symbols (4 frames stipulated in the game rules) from the position of the stop operation timing. When there are symbols corresponding to the lottery result within 4 frames from the position of the stop operation timing, the stop control is performed so that the winning combination symbols are aligned on the active line. In particular, in the re-game stop control process, when a re-game is won even in a normal game state or a bonus flag carry-over state, priority pull-in control is performed so that the re-game is always aligned on the active line. . In this embodiment, the push order navigation ART game using both the stop order notification game (push order navigation AT game) and the RT game is given as a privilege game, and in the spinning stop processing during the push order navigation ART game, the winning information The stop control is executed with reference to the stop order of the rotating cylinder. You may make it give ART game which alert | reports the classification of AT symbol as a privilege game. As the production control command, a “stop information reception command” is set when the rotating cylinder is stopped, and a “stop result information command” is set when the rotating cylinder stops. The “stop information reception command” includes information related to the stop operation of the rotating cylinder, and the “stop result information command” includes information related to the stop position of the rotating cylinder.

  When it is confirmed that all reels have stopped rotating, a winning determination process is performed (step S9). In the winning judgment process, it is checked whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination has stopped on the effective winning line, that is, whether or not a winning has occurred. Based on the above, the number of game medals to be paid out is set. A “winning information command” is set as an effect control command having information related to winning at this time. The winning information command includes winning combination information (stop symbol information when all reels are stopped), winning line information, and the like. If a winning occurs, a medal payout process is performed (step S10). In the medal payout process, the medal hopper 305 is driven and controlled based on the payout information set in the winning determination process, and the game medal payout process and the credit addition process for the number of payouts are performed.

  Further, RT game management processing in RT1 and RT2 is performed (step S11). In the RT game management process, it is determined whether or not the RT game end condition is satisfied during the RT game. If the end condition is satisfied, a setting process for ending the RT game is performed. If not established, the RT game is continued. In the RT2 gaming state, since the sub-control unit is in the AT navigation control mode, the RT2 game end condition substantially corresponds to the ART game end condition, and therefore, for example, one set of ART games is set as described later. At the end of the 25 games, the RT gaming state is also released and the normal gaming state is restored.

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the replay is stopped on the effective pay line (step S12). If the replay is stopped, a setting process for giving a replay is performed (steps S12 and S15). The process returns to the RAM initialization process (step S2). If the replay is not stopped, it is determined whether or not a bonus game is in progress (steps S12 and S13).

  If the bonus game is in progress, processing during bonus game operation is performed (steps S13 and S16). In the bonus game operating process, a setting process required for continuing and ending the bonus game is performed. When the bonus game ends, the process returns to the RAM initialization process (step S2). The bonus game operating process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If the bonus game is not being performed, it is determined whether or not the symbol combination of the bonus combination (special winning combination) has stopped on the effective winning line (steps S13 and S14). If the bonus symbol has not stopped, the routine proceeds to RAM initialization processing (steps S14 and S2). On the other hand, when the bonus combination is stopped, bonus game operation start processing is performed (steps S14 and S17). In the bonus game start process, a setting required to start the bonus game is set, or a “bonus start command” indicating the start of the bonus game is set as an effect control command. When the bonus game operation start process is completed, the process proceeds to a RAM initialization process in step S2.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing timer interrupt processing on the main control side activated by interruption every predetermined time based on the time count of the CTC 105. With reference to FIG. 9, the timer interrupt process executed about every 1.5 ms in the main control side main process will be described.

  When a timer interrupt occurs, the main control board 100 performs a saving process for saving the register to a predetermined stack area (step S20), and then performs a port input process (step S21). In the port input process, detection information from switches and sensors provided in the gaming machine is managed. Next, a rotation rotation control process is performed (step S22). In the rotation rotation control process, at the time of rotation start when confirming the rotation state flag or at the time of rotation stop when confirming the stop command flag, the pulse signal output to the rotation drive motor is managed and controlled, Monitor the current rotation position and speed of the reel. Further, a periodic update process is performed (step S23). In the periodic update process, the timer used for the game operation is updated or the watchdog timer is periodically cleared. For example, when an abnormality occurs in the game operation control and the program is in a runaway state, the periodic update process is not executed, and when the watchdog timer expires, the main CPU 102 is automatically reset and normal from the runaway state. Return to the state.

  Next, a command output process is performed (step S24), and an effect control command that is set according to the processing state accompanying the progress of the game is transmitted to the effect control board 200. The main control board 100 outputs an effect control command for one byte for each interruption. Since one effect control command is 2 bytes long, one effect control command is transmitted by two successive timer interruptions.

  Next, medal information output processing is performed (step S25), and a medal payout signal at the time of game medal insertion and game medal payout is output. The signal at this time is transmitted to the hall computer HC via the external concentrated terminal board 401. Further, display output processing (step S26) and abnormality monitoring processing (step S27) are performed. In the display output process, a control signal for performing light emission control and the like of LEDs and 7 segments provided in the gaming machine is output. In the abnormality monitoring process, the game operation state is monitored based on the information of the input process, and an abnormality (game operation error) of the gaming machine is monitored. After finishing the processes of steps S20 to S27, the contents of the register are restored (step S28), and the timer interrupt process is terminated.

The contents of the bonus game operating process (step S16) will be described.
FIG. 10 shows the processing contents of the bonus game operating processing.
The main control board 100 compares the payout number during bonus game (the number acquired during bonus game) with a predetermined maximum number acquired (step S171). The prescribed number of bonus game ends is 298 for the big bonus game and 104 for the regular bonus game. The bonus game continuation setting process is performed until the number of bonus games acquired reaches the maximum acquired number, and the process of step S171 is repeated (steps S172 and S173). If the number of bonus games acquired reaches or exceeds the maximum number of games acquired, the process proceeds to a bonus end effect standby process (steps S172 and S174). Set the production standby time (ending time) at the end of the bonus game, and wait until the production standby time is up. When the production standby time is over, various settings are made at the end of the bonus game (step S175). At this time, a “bonus end command” indicating that the bonus game has ended is set mainly as a game state transition preparation process (when an ART game is acquired, the game state is set from the bonus game to the ART game flag) or an effect control command. After performing these setting processes, the RAM clear area at the end of the bonus game is cleared, and the bonus game operating process ends (step S176).

  FIG. 17 is a distribution lottery table of the number of times of ART granting when setting 1 is used for the ART granting lottery performed during the bonus game. FIGS. 17A and 17B are sorting lottery tables used for BB or RB, respectively. The “chance” in the figure corresponds to the chance combination a or b. This grant lottery is performed in the sub-control unit, and the sorting lottery table is stored in the sub ROM 207. The ART grant lottery is executed when a bell role or a chance role is won or when the player loses. For example, when a chance combination is won, 25 games (one set) of ART games are awarded at a rate of 65064/655536. In this embodiment, the ART grant and the number of sets that are performed during the bonus game are determined by the one that was won first, and even if it is won later, it will not be added up, but all the bonus wins in the bonus will be valid Then, the number of sets may be added together. In the present invention, the ART game is not limited to be given in units of sets, but may be given by distribution based on the total number of ART games. After the bonus game is finished, the game returns to the normal game state. However, when it is determined that the ART game is given, the game proceeds to the AT preparation mode M1 as will be described later, and further to the RT1 state to notify the replay push order. Immediately the RT2 state (ART gaming state) is entered.

  An outline of the operation at the time of gaming in the above-configured spinning machine A will be described. First, when a player plays a game, after inserting a predetermined number of medals from the medal slot 10 or setting a BET from the credit amount, the player operates the rotation start start lever 15. This starting operation triggers a lottery performed inside the gaming machine. After the start operation, the reels 8a to 8c rotate and reach a certain speed, and then the operation of the spinning cylinder rotation stop buttons 16a to 16c becomes effective. Based on the timing of each stop operation, each reel is controlled to stop at a position corresponding to the lottery result inside the gaming machine. When any winning combination other than replay is won, when a symbol combination of the winning combination is established on the active line, a predetermined number of medals are paid out.

FIG. 11 shows the transition relationship of the gaming state that occurs in the swing game machine A. In the figure, the game state by the main process is indicated by a bold line, and the sub process is indicated in a bold line frame.
First, the relationship between the game states in the main process by the main control unit will be described. When the RT1 transition condition is established from the normal gaming state that is neither the RT state, the ART state nor the bonus game state, the state shifts to the first RT gaming state RT1. When the RT2 transition condition is satisfied in the first RT gaming state RT1, the state shifts to the second RT gaming state RT2. The second RT gaming state RT2 corresponds to an ART gaming state in which the sub-control unit notifies the push order of the AT stop button. When the end condition of the second RT gaming state RT2 (ART gaming state) is satisfied, the normal gaming state is restored. When a bonus game of BB or RB is generated in the normal gaming state, the first RT gaming state RT1, or the second RT gaming state RT2, the game state returns to the normal gaming state after the bonus game gaming state ends.

Next, an outline of sub processing by the sub control unit in each gaming state will be described.
FIG. 12 shows a mode transition process in the normal gaming state by the sub-control unit.
In the normal gaming state, the non-AT mode N1 is set in which the push order notification is not performed even if the AT combination or the replay combination is won. (12A) of FIG. 12 shows the mode transition process in the non-AT mode N1.
In the non-AT mode N1, every time a game is executed (step S50), an AT transition lottery is performed on the condition that a specific combination is won (steps S51 and S52). The specific role is one of cherry, watermelon, bonus role, and chance role. This AT transfer lottery probability is 1/50. When the AT shift lottery is won, the mode shifts to the AT preparation mode M1 (steps S53 and S54).

(12B) of FIG. 12 shows a mode transition process in the AT preparation mode M1.
After shifting to the AT preparation mode M1, the game is executed (step S60), and when the AT role is not won even though the AT role (push order bell role) is won, that is, the AT role is changed. On the condition that it is missed, the mode further shifts to the AT preparation mode M2 (steps S61 and S62).

  The missed AT combination in the normal gaming state also corresponds to the RT1 transition condition in the main process, and the AT preparation mode M2 is set in the RT1 gaming state. That is, even if the bell role is won in the normal gaming state, the pushing order determined accordingly is not notified to the player, so usually the result is a loss result, so the normal gaming state does not continue for a long time, Transition to the RT1 gaming state. As described above, in the RT1 gaming state, the replay probability is substantially improved only slightly, and is substantially the same as the normal gaming state. It becomes the game executable mode.

(13B) of FIG. 13 shows a mode transition process in the AT preparation mode M2.
In the AT preparation mode M2, as a result of the game lottery, when one of the six types of replays according to the push order is won, the push order is notified to the player (step S80). When replay occurs in the correct pressing order of the player, the mode shifts to AT mode (steps S81 and S82).

Correct answering in the order of 6 replay presses during RT1 also corresponds to the RT2 transition condition by the main process, and the ART transition condition is established by the transition to the RT2 gaming state together with the AT mode transition in the sub-control unit. When the ART transition condition is satisfied, an AT setting process (see FIG. 18) described later is performed.

FIG. 14 shows a mode transition process in the AT mode.
When the game is executed in the AT mode, that is, in the ART gaming state (step S110) and the number of ART games reaches the preset number of times and the AT process is terminated (step S113), the non-AT mode N3 in the RT2 gaming state is entered. (Step S114). If the AT combination is notified by the AT process, but the AT combination is missed during the AT mode, that is, if an AT puncture occurs, the process shifts to the non-AT mode N2 in the RT1 gaming state (step S111). , S112). As a condition for generating an AT puncture, a puncture role by a specific small role or replay may be provided. For example, it may be terminated on the condition that the punk role is won or won (established), or may be terminated by winning a bonus role. .

  In the main process, on the condition that an AT combination is missed during the AT mode (AT puncture; non-winning winning combination), RT2 is canceled, the process proceeds to RT1, and the ART gaming state is canceled.

FIG. 15 shows a mode transition process in the non-AT mode N3.
In the non-AT mode N3, a game is executed (step S100), and even if one of the six types of replays according to the push order is won as a result of the game lottery, the push order is not notified to the player. When the pressing order is correct in any of the replay wins, AT setting processing is performed and the mode is shifted to the AT mode (steps S101 to S103). Even if the AT combination is won during the non-AT mode N3, the player is not notified of the pushing order. Therefore, in the non-AT mode N3, it is easy for the AT combination to be missed, and the non-AT mode N2 in the RT1 gaming state is caused by the AT combination being missed (steps S104 and S105). In the main process, RT2 is canceled and the process proceeds to RT1.

(13A) of FIG. 13 shows the mode transition process in the non-AT mode N2.
In the non-AT mode N2, every time a game is executed (step S70), an AT transition lottery is performed on the condition that a specific combination is won (steps S71 and S72). The specific combination is one of cherry, watermelon, bonus combination, and chance combination as in the non-AT mode N1. In this case, the AT transfer lottery probability is 1/100. If the AT transfer lottery is won, it is possible to shift to the AT preparation mode M2 and shift to the ART gaming state (steps S73, S74).

  As shown in FIG. 11, when a bonus game occurs in the normal gaming state, the RT1 gaming state, and the ART gaming state, the bonus game state is entered, and the normal gaming state is restored when the bonus game ends. In the present embodiment, the ART grant lottery (see FIG. 17) performed during the bonus game is performed, but when the ART grant is won during the bonus, the sub-process is set to the AT preparation mode M1. Accordingly, the AT preparation mode M1 is further shifted to the RT1 state, the replay push order is notified, and the ART gaming state can be promptly shifted.

FIG. 18 shows the AT setting process (step S102) of the sub-control unit.
When the ART transition condition is satisfied, that is, when the turning stop operation is performed according to the correct procedure at the time of replay winning, a lottery of the number of times (set number) of the ART game is performed (step S120).
(17C) in FIG. 17 shows a distribution lottery table of the number of grants. The sub ROM 207 stores a lottery table of the number of grants with different allocation ratios according to the setting stage, and (17C) in FIG. When the ART transition condition is satisfied, in the present embodiment, 25 games are given as a unit (set) as a bonus game, and 25 games are given as 1 to 10 times as the number of grants (set number) It is determined by lottery. For example, in the lottery table of (17C), a total of 75 sets of 3 times are distributed at a ratio of 128/65536. In the case of setting 6 in the lottery table for the number of times of each setting, it is set so that the distribution rate at which the number of sets is 2 or more is maximized. The number of grants determined by the lottery of the number of grants is stored and set in the ART game set number counter provided in the sub RAM 208 in units of the number of sets (steps S120 and S121). The AT setting process may be performed at a stage before the ART transition condition is satisfied, for example, at the time of winning the AT transition lottery (step S53 or S73).

  Along with the lottery of the number of grants, a lottery process for distributing the number of ART games is added. The extra lottery lottery process is executed based on the extra lottery table based on the number of extra games and the probabilities of different sorts of extra games having different extra efficiency. In this embodiment, for each setting, two types of extra lottery tables with different distribution rates are stored in the sub ROM 207 in advance.

FIG. 19 shows an example of a set of extra lottery tables in the case of setting 1. The addition lottery tables in (19B) and (19C) of FIG. 19 are each composed of the number of additions of ART and the distribution probability thereof, and have the same distribution ratio and different set values of the number of additions. (19C) Extra lottery table (special mode) can be selected up to 300 extra times (up to 200 in case of (19B)) compared to (19B) extra lottery table (normal mode) It is possible, and as a whole, the number of ART games advantageous to the player can be given. For example, in the normal mode, when the replay win is established, the number of additions of 10 is determined with a distribution ratio of 65096/65536, and when the cherry is selected, the number of additions of 20 is determined with a distribution ratio of 256/65536. The The special mode or normal mode extra lottery table is selected and selected according to the distribution ratio shown in FIG. The type of the special mode or normal mode extra lottery table determined at the time of the ART game transition is stored and set in the sub RAM 208 (steps S122 and S123). According to the AT setting process (step S102), the allocation of the number of grants and the addition rate of the number of ART games is determined, and the mode shifts to the AT mode (step S103).
In the present embodiment, when a plurality of sets of ART games are given, the number of games is added and determined in the game period of the ART game for each set. Therefore, when the addition is determined, the number of games in the ART game for the set is changed. Therefore, at the stage of granting the ART game, a sense of expectation for obtaining a larger number of sets and the number of ART games in each set. A sense of expectation for the addition of the game becomes a synergistic effect, which can further enhance the interest of the spinning game.

FIG. 20 shows control processing in the ART gaming state of the sub-control unit.
When shifting to the ART game (step S130), 1 is subtracted from the value NS of the ART game set number counter that stores the number of times the ART game is set (step S131). Further, the initial value (25) is stored and set in the ART game number counter provided in the sub RAM 208 (step S132).

  Next, when a turning game is executed once by medal insertion or credit setting insertion and reel rotation start operation (step S133), an internal lottery result is obtained from the main control unit, and in accordance with the winning combination, Based on the selected and determined additional lottery table, an additional lottery is executed for the number of ART games (step S134). If the winning lottery is won (step S135), the value corresponding to the added number is added to the ART game number counter and updated (step S136), and then one subtraction is performed (step S137). When the winning lottery is not won (step S135), one subtraction is performed without performing the update (step S137).

  The above-mentioned one set of ART games is executed, the number of games including the additional amount in the middle is digested, and when the value of the ART game number counter becomes 0, whether or not the value NS of the ART game set number counter is 0, That is, if there is a remaining set number (step S140), the set number is subtracted and the initial value of the ART game number counter is set again (steps S131 and S132), and the ART game execution for one set is repeated. When there is no remaining set number of times (step S140), the ART game is terminated. If an AT puncture occurs during the ART game, the process ends at that time (step S139). Instead of performing ART game management in units of one set, first, the total number (25 × number of sets NS) is set once as an initial value in the ART game number counter so that only game number management is performed. It may be.

  Next, notification effect control executed under the control of the sub-control unit will be described. In the following description, notification effect control in updating the number of games in the ART gaming state will be mainly described.

FIG. 21 shows an outline of the effect notification process executed by the sub control unit (sub CPU 206).
In the present embodiment, winning symbols and role types are announced mainly by image display by the liquid crystal display device 3, and a blessing effect at the time of winning a role is performed. In addition to this image effect, various sounds and light effects are executed using the sound effect of the upper speaker 4 and the lower speakers 22a and 22b and the electric effect of the decorative lamp unit 6 separately.
In the effect notification process by the sub-control unit, image / sound / light effect notification according to the gaming state is performed. The sub-control unit receives an effect control command from the main control unit (main CPU 102), determines the game state, and executes normal game effect notification processing in the normal game mode (steps S90 and S95). In the normal game effect notification process (step S95), game information related to the result of the internal lottery, for example, various combinations, 100% notification of replay or miss, notification of the probability of winning is performed. The normal game effect notification process includes a notification process for notifying the result of the ART grant lottery.

In the case of a bonus game, a bonus game effect notification process for displaying a progress effect of the bonus game in accordance with the content of the motif of the gaming machine and displaying the number of acquired games is executed (steps S91 and S96).
In the ART game mode, ART game effect notification processing such as ART game progress effect, ART game game execution count, ART game frequency update notification, continuation notification, cumulative display of the number of acquired medals, etc. is executed ( Steps S92 and S97).
In the case of the internal winning state, an internal winning state effect informing process for notifying the bonus winning combination, informing whether or not the ART game has been acquired, or notifying the probability is executed (steps S93 and S98). Furthermore, when a bonus game is won, a bonus winning effect notification process for congratulating the occurrence of the bonus game is executed (steps S94 and S99).

FIG. 22 shows ART game effect notification processing (step S97).
The effect control board 200 acquires the winning combination type and performs an effect process according to the winning combination. When the winning combination is either the AT combination or 6-choice replay, the push order notification effect corresponding to the winning combination type is selected based on the winning combination push order notification effect selection table stored in the sub-ROM 207 (step) S200, S201). For example, if the order of pushing the center drum → left cylinder → right cylinder bell is elected, the middle, left, and right instruction voices in accordance with the stopping procedure will be displayed before the first reel stop. ”,“ Hidari ”before the next reel stop, and“ Migi ”before the final reel stop, and in addition to the image display, are notified. This push order notification effect is executed in parallel with an ART progress effect that directs the progress of the entire ART game described later. Steps S200 and S201 by the effect control board 200 correspond to notification control means for performing notification control of the stop operation order in the stop operation order notification game in the present invention. Even when an ART game for notifying the type of the winning AT symbol is given, the winning combination notification can be performed by providing the effect control board 200 with the winning combination notification control means for notifying the type of the winning AT combination.
When the winning combination is a bonus combination (step S202), the effect state is set to “normal” and the effect at the time of winning the bonus is selected (steps S203 and S204). Therefore, when a bonus win occurs during an AT game, the AT game effect ends, and the effect state shifts to a “normal” effect state in which the push order notification effect does not appear. If the winning combination is not a bonus combination, that is, if the winning combination is a small combination such as a cherry or a miss, the contents corresponding to each are selected (steps S202 and S205).

  23 and 24 show the ART progress effect process during the ART game by the sub-control unit. FIG. 25 shows an effect table in which effect contents used for the ART progress effect process mainly produced by the image effect of the liquid crystal display device 3 are stored. This effect table is stored in the sub ROM 207 of the effect control board 200.

  The first effect table in (25A) of FIG. 25 is composed of game effects of battle effects in which the hero robot character, which is the motif of the revolving game machine, fights against several monsters A to D. The content of the battle production includes, for example, appearance scenes of heroes and monsters, confrontation scenes of both, fighting scenes of both. The first effect table includes a start effect upon entering the ART game, and also includes different battle effects even for the same monster. Each battle production consists of production contents repeated over 4 to 6 games. Each battle effect is selected according to the number of granted sets. Monsters A to D mean strong players in the order of A <B <C <D, and as scenes that defeat the stronger monsters appear, the selection of performance selections (not shown) is made to correspond to the case where there are a large number of granted sets. Selected by lottery. In addition, the first effect table includes an additional notification effect on the way, and the effect content includes, for example, a notification that displays the number of games to be added in a scene where a hero character who has fallen during the battle rises again and raises a male player. It consists of production.

  The second effect table in (25B) of FIG. 25 is composed of an end effect group when no addition has occurred. Each end effect consists of a game effect of continuous effects in which related effects over four games are continuously ending. The content of the continuous production includes, for example, scenes where heroes and plural kinds of monsters appear one after another, fighting scenes with each monster, end scenes where the hero character is defeated, and the like. One monster appears in the production in the middle of the ART game by the first production table, but a plurality of monsters appear in the ending continuous production by the second production table. Assuming that an additional number of ART games occurs during the ART game, a plurality of types of notification effect contents added on the way are added to the first effect table, and a plurality of notification effect contents at the end are added to the second effect table. Seeds have been added. As the content of the additional notification effect at the end, for example, it includes a notification effect that displays the number of games added in a scene where a fallen hero character gets up again and screams. Note that the sub-ROM 207 stores a continuous notification effect for notifying the addition of a new ART game after the end effect when one set of ART games has been completed and the number of sets remains. As the continuation notification effect, for example, the notification of “continue next time” is displayed by cut-in display in the last continuous effect scene.

  First, when a new set of ART games starts, a first effect table is set (steps S250 and S251). At the start of the ART, the display is switched from the normal game screen display to the start effect upon entering the ART game, and the transition to the ART game state is notified. The count value of the number of ART games is displayed on the liquid crystal screen of the liquid crystal display device 2, and the display is sequentially changed with the digestion.

  When an ART game is executed once, when selecting the effect contents from the first effect table, refer to the extra lottery result, and at the time of extra winning, select and add the extra information effect contents to the effect contents The content of the effect is set (steps S252 to S254), and the game effect is executed (step S255). On the other hand, when the bonus is not won, the contents of the effect are selected and set (steps S253 and S257), and the game effect is executed (step S258). After a game effect relating to one ART game is executed, the subsequent ART games are similarly repeated. The game effect is repeated with the progress of the ART game, and when the value of the ART game number counter (the remaining number of times of the ART game) becomes less than 5, the effect table is switched to the second effect table and set (steps S256 and S259). ).

  After setting in the second effect table, each time an ART game is executed, the selected continuous ending effect is sequentially executed (steps S260 to S262). Based on whether the ART game number counter value has been updated or not, it is determined whether or not an extra winning has occurred during the continuous production game period (4 games) (step S263, S264).

  When the extra winning has occurred, the contents of the extra notification effect at the end are selected and set by the second effect table (steps S264 and S265). Next, after the final continuous effect, an effect of the extra notification effect content at the end of the selection is executed, and an additional notification is performed (step S266). In subsequent ART games, the addition update is performed, so the setting is switched to the first effect table again, and the progress effect process of the ART game is repeated (steps S266 and S251).

  If there is no extra winning (step S264), it is determined whether the value NS of the ART game set number counter is 0, that is, whether there is a remaining set number (step S267). When there is no remaining set number, the execution effect of the ART game is terminated with the execution of the final effect of the continuous effect, and the display is switched to the screen display of the normal game. By this screen change, the player recognizes that the ART game has ended. If there is a remaining set number, continuous notification is performed, and the next ART game progress effect is started again (steps S267, S268, S251). At the restart, the initial count value on the liquid crystal screen is displayed at 25.

  As described above, in the swing type gaming machine A according to the present embodiment, during the ART game, the first half game period (for example, from the first game to the 21st game when there is no additional game) and the second half game period (before the end) The game effect is executed by switching between the first effect table and the second effect table according to (4 games). When an extra lottery is won during the first half of the game period, the first extra table can be used to execute a middle extra announcement effect and notify the extra prize as needed. When the lottery is not won by adding in the second half game period, the end effect can be executed by the second effect table to notify the end of the bonus game. In addition, when an extra lottery is won during the latter half of the game period, an extra announcement at the end can be executed to notify the extra prize at the end of the second half of the game period. Therefore, according to the swing type gaming machine A, it is possible to execute an extra notification effect without any sense of incongruity even if the extra lottery performed during the ART game period is won, that is, even if it is won at the end of the game. As long as there is not, the progress effect of the ART game limited to 25 games in one set can be smoothly executed, and the interest of the spinning game can be increased.

  The extra notification effect content at the end consists of a group of continuous effect content that informs the extra winning after performing related effects over four consecutive games, so when an extra winning occurs in the game process of the continuous effect Then, it is possible to notify the occurrence of the addition through the subsequent continuous effects, and to execute the notification effects with a higher expectation to enhance the interest of the ART game.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments and modifications, and includes various modifications and design changes within the technical scope without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. Needless to say.

  The present invention is particularly suitable for a swivel game machine to which privilege games such as AT games and ART games can be given.
