Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with a plurality of winning detection means.

  Conventionally, a pachinko machine which is a kind of gaming machine is provided with a variable display of a liquid crystal display type, for example, and a symbol combination game that displays a combination of symbols by changing a plurality of types of symbols on the variable display (symbol changing game) Has been done. Then, the player can recognize a big hit or a loss from the symbol combination derived in the symbol combination game and finally displayed to be confirmed and stopped. Some of these pachinko machines are equipped with a function of providing an advantageous game state (privilege) different from the jackpot game after the jackpot game is over. As such a function, for example, a probability variation (hereinafter referred to as “probability variation”) function is known. The probability variation function is a function that gives a player a probability variation state (high probability state) in which the winning probability (lottery probability) of the big hit varies from a normal probability, which is a low probability, to a high probability after the end of the big hit game.

  In such a gaming machine, there is a game in which a plurality of start winning holes are provided in the game area of the game board, and when a game ball wins a prize in these starting winning holes, a symbol variation game is played on one display device. (Patent Document 1). In this gaming machine, a start hold storage unit for storing the number of start hold balls for each start winning opening is provided. Then, when the display device starts the symbol variation game, when the number of start hold balls is stored in the plurality of start hold storage units, the number of start hold balls stored in the predetermined start hold storage unit is set. The symbol variation game based on it is preferentially executed.

JP 2005-304932 A

  By the way, the gaming machine described in Patent Literature 1 has a priority set in each start hold storage unit, and since the opening and closing blades are provided, the second prize that can be won only when the certain change state is given. The symbol variation game based on the game ball won in the start winning opening is preferentially executed. For this reason, the symbol variation game when a game ball is won at the second start winning opening has a higher probability of being a big hit than when the game ball is won at the first start winning opening that can be always won. ing. In addition, when the symbol variation game based on winning in the first start winning opening is a big hit, the maximum number of round games of the jackpot game is 15 times, while the symbol varying game based on winning in the second starting winning opening When it is a big hit at, the maximum number of round games of the big hit game is 10 times.

  However, with such a configuration, there is a possibility that a big hit game will continue if the maximum number of round games is small (that is, the number of game balls that can be acquired during the big hit game is small) when probability variation big hits occur continuously. Get higher. Then, although the player has become a big hit game in which probability variation is continuously given, there is a possibility that the player will be dissatisfied with the number of game balls to be acquired and the willingness to play will be reduced.

  Moreover, if the ratio of the probable big hits is increased in order to prevent such a situation, it may be disadvantageous to the game store. That is, there are cases where the probabilistic big hits continue and the number of game balls that must be paid out increases. Therefore, in such a gaming machine, there is a speculation on the part of the player who wants to acquire a large number of game balls and a speculation on the part of the player who wants to reduce the number of game balls acquired, making it difficult to balance them. It was.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems existing in the prior art, and its purpose is to change the content of the game that is disadvantageous to the player without changing the proportion of the special game state. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine that can prevent a big hit game from continuing.

Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the present invention is embodied in a pachinko gaming machine (hereinafter referred to as a “pachinko machine”) which is a kind of gaming machine will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 1, the front side of the pachinko machine 10 is schematically shown, and a vertical rectangular middle frame 12 for setting various game components is opened and closed on the front side of the opening of the outer frame 11 that forms the outline of the machine body. And is detachably assembled. On the front side of the middle frame 12, a front frame 14 having a glass frame on which a protective glass for protecting the game board 13 disposed inside the machine is mounted and an upper ball tray 15 are opened and closed in a laterally open state. It is assembled as possible. On the front side of the front frame 14 and the game area 13 a of the game board 13, a decoration lamp 16 that performs a light emission effect by light emission (lighting (flashing)) of a light emitter (LED, lamp, etc.) is provided. A speaker 17 that outputs various sounds and performs a game effect based on the sound output is arranged below the outer frame 11. A lower ball tray 18 and a launching device 19 are attached to the lower part of the middle frame 12. Then, when the player operates the launching device 19 to drive the launching device 19, the game ball in the upper ball tray 15 is launched into the game area 13 a of the game board 13.

  In the approximate center of the game area 13a of the game board 13, a first special figure display H0 as a 7 segment type display means, a second special figure display H1 as a 7 segment type display means, and a liquid crystal display type A center accessory 20 having a variable display H2 as a display means is provided. As shown in FIG. 2, the first special figure indicator H <b> 0 is provided in the lower right part of the center accessory 20, and the second special figure indicator H <b> 1 is provided in the lower left part of the center accessory 20. The variable display H2 is provided at the center of the center accessory 20. In the first special symbol display device H0 and the second special graphic display device H1, a symbol variation game is performed in which a plurality of types of symbols are varied and displayed. In the variable display H2, a display effect related to the symbol variation game performed in the first special figure display H0 or the second special figure display H1 is performed. Specifically, the variable display H2 performs a display effect based on a fluctuating image (or image display), and changes a plurality of types of symbols in a plurality of columns to display a symbol combination game (hereinafter referred to as a symbol). May be shown as a combination game).

  In the symbol variation game, the first special symbol display H0 and the second special symbol display H1 change the special symbols of a plurality of types (hereinafter, may be referred to as “special symbols”) in a single column. Is displayed. This special figure is a notification pattern indicating the result of an internal lottery such as whether or not a big hit. Hereinafter, the symbol variation game performed on the first special symbol display device H0 is referred to as “first variation game”, and the symbol variation game performed on the second special symbol display device H1 is referred to as “second variation game”. There is. On the other hand, in the display effect related to the symbol variation game, the variable display H2 varies a plurality of types of decorative symbols (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “decorative diagrams”) in a plurality of columns (in this embodiment, three columns). Display a decorative drawing for each column. This decorative drawing is a design for production used for diversifying display production.

  Then, on the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1, the change display of the symbol is started at the same time when the symbol change game is started, and the special figure is confirmed and stopped simultaneously with the end of the game. In addition, the variable display H2 starts the decorative display of the decorative drawing at the same time as the start of the symbol changing game, and the decorative drawing is temporarily stopped and displayed in a swinging and changing state before the end of the game. The decoration drawing is displayed in a fixed stop state. “Fluctuation display” is a state in which the type of the symbol displayed in the display area defined in the indicator that displays the symbol is changing. “Temporary display” means that the symbol is shaken in the display area. This is a state displayed in a fluctuating state. The “definite stop display” is a state in which the symbols are fixed and stopped in the display area. In the first special figure display H0 and the variable display H2, display effects relating to the symbol variation game and the symbol variation game are started at the same time, and are simultaneously ended (that is, the special diagram and the decoration drawing are confirmed and stopped at the same time). ). Similarly, in the second special symbol display H1 and the variable display H2, the display effects relating to the symbol variation game and the symbol variation game are started at the same time, and are simultaneously ended (that is, the special symbol and the decoration drawing are simultaneously displayed in a fixed stop state. ) On the other hand, the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1 do not play the symbol variation game in parallel. That is, only one of the first variation game and the second variation game is executed.

  In the present embodiment, the numbers of [0] [1] [2] and the symbol [-] are displayed as special figures on the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1. ing. When the symbols finally displayed (definite stop display) on the first special symbol display H0 and the second special symbol display H1 are numbers [0] [1] [2], the big hit can be recognized from the symbols. . The symbol that can recognize this jackpot is the jackpot symbol (the jackpot display result) in the special figure. On the other hand, when the symbol confirmed and displayed on the first special symbol display H0 and the second special symbol display H1 is [-], a deviation from the symbol can be recognized. The symbol that can recognize this detachment becomes the detachment symbol in the special diagram.

  In the present embodiment, the variable display H2 includes 8 [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], and [8] for each column. Numbers of types are displayed as decorative drawings. In the present embodiment, the variable display H2 has a larger display area than the first special figure display H0 and the special figure display H1, and the decorative drawing is much larger than the special figure. It is displayed. For this reason, the player can recognize the big hit or miss from the symbol combination stopped and displayed on the variable display H2. When the symbols of all columns stopped and displayed on the variable display H2 are of the same type, the big hit can be recognized from the symbol combination ([222] [777] or the like). The symbol combination that can recognize this jackpot is a jackpot symbol combination (big hit display result) by a decorative drawing. When the big hit symbol combination is displayed in a fixed stop state, the player is given a big hit game after the end of the symbol variation game. On the other hand, when the symbols of all columns displayed on the variable display H2 are stopped and displayed are of different types, or when the symbols of one column are different from the symbols of the other two columns, the symbol combination ([123] [122] [767] etc.) can be recognized. The symbol combination which can recognize this deviation becomes a symbol combination (outlier display result) of the deviation by the decorative drawing.

  Further, in the present embodiment, each row in the variable display H2 is configured such that the decorative drawing is variably displayed along a predetermined variation direction (vertical scroll direction) when the symbol variation game is started. When the symbol variation game is started (when the decorations in each column start to vary), the left column (left symbol) → the right column (right symbol) → the middle column (middle) as viewed from the player side in the variable display H2. The decorative drawings are stopped and displayed in the order of symbols. When the left symbol and the right symbol that are stopped and displayed are of the same type, the reach state can be recognized from the symbol combination ([↓] indicates that the symbol is changing, such as [1 ↓ 1]). In the reach state, among the plurality of columns, the decorative drawings of the specific columns (the left column and the right column in the present embodiment) are the same type and are stopped and displayed, and the columns other than the specific columns (the middle column in the present embodiment) Is a state in which the decorative drawing is displayed in a variable manner. The symbol combination which can recognize this reach state becomes the symbol combination of the reach by the decorative drawing. Further, in the pachinko machine 10 of the present embodiment, after the start of the symbol variation game, the left column that first stops the decorative drawing becomes the first stop display column, and the right column that stops the decorative drawing next is the first column. The second stop display column is the third stop display column.

  The variable display H2 displays symbol combinations according to the display results of the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1. More specifically, the symbol combination of the special symbol of the first special symbol display H0 or the second special symbol display H1 and the symbol combination of the decorative symbol of the variable display H2 correspond to each other. A symbol combination by a figure and a symbol combination by a decoration diagram are displayed in a fixed stop correspondingly. For example, when a big hit symbol of [0] is fixedly stopped and displayed on the first special figure display H0 or the second special figure display H1, a big hit such as [222] or [444] is also displayed on the variable display H2. The symbol combination is displayed with a fixed stop. Further, when the symbol “-” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display H0 or the second special figure display area H1, the variable display H2 also has a deviation such as [121] or [345]. The symbol combination is displayed in a fixed stop state. In addition, the symbol combination of the decorative drawing with respect to the special drawing is not necessarily one-to-one, and the symbol combination with one decorative drawing is selected from among the symbol combinations with a plurality of decorative drawings for one special drawing. Yes.

  As described above, in the variable display H2 of the present embodiment, the display effects related to the first and second variable games (the symbol variable game in which the three symbol combinations are displayed in a variable manner to display a combination of symbols). Is to be done.

  A 7-segment type normal symbol display H10 is disposed at the left end of the game board 13 (left side of the center accessory 20). The normal symbol display H10 has a plurality of types of normal symbols (hereinafter, “ The symbol combination game (hereinafter referred to as “general-purpose game”) using ordinary symbols for deriving general-purpose figures by changing the “standard-character” is performed. In the present embodiment, one common figure is derived in the common figure game, and the types of the common figure are “0” and “1”.

  The player can recognize winning or losing from the symbol combination (display result derived in the general game) finally displayed in the general game. When the common figure displayed on the normal symbol display H10 is “1”, the winning can be recognized. An ordinary map that can recognize this hit becomes a hit display result. When the winning display result is displayed, the player is given a gaming state per usual figure. In addition, when the common figure displayed on the normal symbol display H10 is “0”, a deviation from the usual figure can be recognized. The usual figure which can recognize this detachment becomes a display result of detachment.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a first start winning opening 25 as a first winning detecting means having a first starting entrance 25a through which a game ball can always enter is provided below the center accessory 20 as shown in FIG. It is arranged. A first start port sensor SE1 (shown in FIG. 3) that detects a game ball that has entered is provided behind the first start winning port 25. The first start winning opening 25 can give a start condition for the first variable game when a game ball enters. Also, below the first start winning opening 25 is an opening / closing operation that opens and closes by the operation of a second starting entrance 27a through which a game ball can enter and a normal electric accessory solenoid SOL2 (shown in FIG. 3). A second start winning opening 27 is provided as a second winning detecting means provided with an opening / closing blade (ordinary electric accessory) 26 as a member. In FIG. 2, the open / close blade 26 opened is indicated by a solid line, and the open / close blade 26 closed is indicated by a two-dot broken line. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the opening / closing blade 26 is an opening / closing member.

  A second start port sensor SE2 (shown in FIG. 3) for detecting a game ball that has entered the ball is provided behind the second start winning port 27. The second start winning opening 27 can give a start condition for the second variable game when the game ball enters. The second starting entrance 27a of the second starting winning opening 27 is always closed with the opening / closing blade 26 closed. In a state in which the second starting entrance 27a is closed, the second starting winning opening 27 is in a state in which entering is not possible (a state in which entering is restricted). Then, when the predetermined opening condition is established, the second starting entrance 27a is operated from the closed state to the open state by opening and closing the blades 26, so that the opening time is predetermined once or a plurality of times. Opened. In a state where the second starting entrance 27a is open, the second starting winning opening 27 is in a state where it is possible to enter (a state where entry is permitted).

  The first start winning opening 25 and the second start winning opening 27 are juxtaposed along the flow-down direction (vertical direction) of the game balls launched into the game area 13a of the game board 13, and the game board according to this embodiment. 13 is provided with a plurality of start condition devices (winning detection means) that can give start conditions.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a big prize opening device provided with a big prize opening door 28 that opens and closes by the operation of a big prize opening solenoid SOL1 (shown in FIG. 3) below the second start winning prize opening 27. 29 is arranged. Behind the big prize opening device 29 is provided a count switch SE3 for detecting a game ball that has entered. When the big hit gaming state is generated, the big prize opening device 29 is opened by the opening operation of the big prize opening door 28 so that the game ball can enter, so that the player can acquire a large number of prize balls. You can get a chance.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a first holding indicator R is disposed on the right side of the first special figure indicator H0 in the center accessory 20. The first hold indicator R enters the first start winning opening 25 and becomes the start hold ball and is stored as the start hold ball (RAM 30c) and stored in the start hold ball (hereinafter referred to as “first start hold memory number”). The number of times of the first variable game being held is informed by the display content of the first hold indicator R.

  The first start reserved memory number is incremented by 1 (+1) when a game ball enters the first start winning opening 25, and is decremented by 1 (-1) when the first variable game is started. When a game ball enters the first start winning opening 25 during the first variable game (or the second variable game), the first start reserved memory number is further added (+1) to a predetermined upper limit number (book In the embodiment, it is accumulated up to 4). The first hold indicator R is composed of a plurality of (four) light emitting means including a hold 1 lamp R1, a hold 2 lamp R2, a hold 3 lamp R3, and a hold 4 lamp R4. For example, when only the hold 1 lamp R1 is lit, it is notified that one first variable game is on hold.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a second holding indicator L is disposed on the left side of the second special figure indicator H1 in the center accessory 20. The second hold indicator L enters the second start winning award 27 and becomes the start hold ball and is stored as the start hold ball (RAM 30c) and stored in the start hold ball (hereinafter referred to as “second start hold memory number”). The number of times of the second variable game being held is notified by the display content of the second hold display L. The second start reserved memory number is incremented by 1 (+1) when a game ball enters the second start winning opening 27, and is decremented by 1 (-1) when the second variable game is started. When a game ball enters the second start winning opening 27 during the second variable game (or the first variable game), the second start reserved memory number is further added (+1) to a predetermined upper limit number (book In the embodiment, it is accumulated up to 4). The second hold indicator L is composed of a plurality (four) of light emitting means including a hold 1 lamp L1, a hold 2 lamp L2, a hold 3 lamp L3, and a hold 4 lamp L4. For example, when the hold 1 lamp L1 and the hold 2 lamp L2 are lit, it is informed that two second variation games are on hold.

  An operation gate 23 is disposed on the left side of the center accessory 20. Behind the operation gate 23, a gate sensor SE4 (shown in FIG. 3) for detecting a winning (passing) game ball is provided. The operation gate 23 can give the start condition for the usual game when the winning of the game ball is detected (passage detection). In the present embodiment, a game ball detecting means is constituted by the operation gate 23 and the gate sensor SE4. The usual game is an effect performed for deriving a lottery result indicating whether or not the second start winning opening 27 is in an open state (whether a game ball can be won in the second starting winning opening 27). The second start winning opening 27 is always in a closed state in which the entrance is closed by the opening and closing blades 26, and in this closed state, a game ball cannot be won. On the other hand, when the second start winning opening 27 is given a game state per normal figure, the second start winning opening 27 is opened by opening the opening / closing blade 26, and the game ball can be won. it can. That is, when a game state is given per game, a game ball can be won at the second start winning port 27 by opening the opening and closing blades 26, so that it becomes easier to win a game ball at the second start winning port 27. The player can obtain a chance to easily acquire the starting condition and the prize ball of the second variable game. It should be noted that game balls can always be awarded to the first start winning opening 25 under the same conditions.

  In addition, the pachinko machine 10 according to the present embodiment has a probability variation (hereinafter referred to as “probability variation”) function as a special game state advantageous to the player after the big hit game ends. The probability change function has a low probability of winning a lottery (winning probability) after the end of the jackpot game on the condition that the type of jackpot symbol (special figure) that has been confirmed and displayed is a predetermined probability variation symbol (normal state) This is a function for giving a probability variation state (probability variation state) that varies from a normal probability (2/631 in the present embodiment) to a high probability (10/631 in the present embodiment). In this embodiment, the probability variation design is defined as two types of special diagrams [1] and [2]. On the other hand, if the type of jackpot symbol (special symbol) displayed in a fixed stop is a predetermined non-probable variable symbol, after the jackpot game is over, the lottery probability of the jackpot will not change and the normal probability will be maintained. ing. In this embodiment, the uncertain variable pattern is defined as one type of special figure [0].

  In addition, when the probability variation state is given, the variation time of the ordinary game for deriving the lottery result of whether or not to open and close the opening / closing blade 26 is shortened, and the probability of hitting the ordinary game is higher than the normal probability A state of improved entrance rate that varies in a row is given as a privilege. Further, when the entrance rate is improved, the opening / closing blade 26 opens and closes with different operation patterns when winning in the normal game, depending on whether it is in the probability variation state or in the normal state (non-probability variation state). It has become.

  In other words, when the normal game is won in the normal state, the opening / closing blade 26 is opened once, and the open state is maintained until 300 ms elapses after the opening. On the other hand, in the case of winning the normal game in the certain change state, the opening / closing blade 26 is opened three times, and 1400 ms (long time compared to the normal state) elapses after opening in one opening. It is designed to maintain an open state. In other words, the opening / closing blade 26 is set to operate more advantageously for the player than when the normal state is applied when the probability variation state is applied. Even before a specified time elapses after opening, when a specified number of game balls (for example, 10 balls) enter, the opening / closing blade 26 is closed. Similarly, the opening and closing blades 26 are closed when a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 10 balls) enter even if they are not opened a predetermined number of times.

  Further, the probability variation state is given until a predetermined number of times (10000 times in this embodiment) the symbol variation game is played, or until a big hit is generated before the number of games is reached. That is, the probability variation state is given until the end of the symbol variation game corresponding to a predetermined number of times, or until the end of the symbol variation game in which a big hit occurs before the number of times is reached. In this embodiment, since the probability variation state is set to 10000 as a predetermined number of times, it is substantially equivalent to being given until the next big hit occurs. In this embodiment, when the special figure [1] [2] and the decorative figures [111] [333] [555] [777] are displayed in the first floating game or the second floating game, After the completion, the probability variation state is given.

  Then, a jackpot that gives a probability variation state after the jackpot game ends becomes a probability variation jackpot, and a jackpot that is not given a probability variation state after the jackpot game ends becomes a non-probability variation jackpot. If a probable change state is given, the probability of winning a lottery fluctuates with a high probability, and it is easy for a big win to occur. It is carried out.

  In addition, the pachinko machine 10 of the present embodiment has a time-shortening function that gives a variable time shortening (hereinafter referred to as “time-shortening”) state as a special gaming state advantageous to the player after the end of the big hit game. When the short-time state is given, the fluctuation time of the ordinary game for deriving the lottery result of whether or not to open and close the opening / closing blade 26 is shortened, and the hit probability of the ordinary game is changed from the normal probability to the high probability The improved entrance rate is given as a privilege. In the improved entrance rate, the open / close blade 26 opens and closes in different operation patterns when winning in the normal game, depending on whether it is in the short-time state or in the normal state.

  When winning the normal game in the normal state, the opening / closing blade 26 opens once, and the open state is maintained until 300 ms elapses after the opening. Also, when the normal symbol variation game is won in the short-time state, the opening / closing blade 26 is opened three times and until 1400 ms (longer time compared to the normal state) elapses after the opening in one opening. It is designed to maintain an open state. That is, the opening / closing blade 26 is set so as to operate more advantageously for the player when the short-time state is applied, compared to the state where the normal state is applied.

  The short-time state is given until a predetermined number of symbol variation games are played, or until a big hit is generated before the number of games is reached. That is, the time-short state is given until the end of the symbol variation game corresponding to a predetermined number of times, or until the end of the symbol variation game in which a big hit occurs before the number of times is reached. In the present embodiment, when the special figure [0] and the decoration drawings [222] [444] [666] [888] are displayed in the first floating game or the second floating game, A short-time state is given.

  The big hit game is started after the big hit symbol (and the big hit symbol combination) is stopped and displayed on the respective displays H0 to H2 in the symbol variation game, and the game ends. When the big hit game is started, an opening effect indicating the start of the big hit game is first performed. After the opening effect, the round game in which the grand prize opening device 29 (the big prize opening door 28) is opened is performed a plurality of times with a predetermined number of rounds as the upper limit (15 rounds or two rounds in this embodiment). . One round game is from when the big prize opening device 29 is opened until it is closed, and during one round game, the big prize opening device 29 has a predetermined number of winning prizes (10 in this embodiment). The game is released until a game ball is won or until a prescribed time (in this embodiment, 25 seconds when the prescribed round number is 15 or 0.3 seconds when the prescribed round number is 2) elapses. In round games, round effects are performed. Then, an ending effect indicating the end of the jackpot game is performed, and the jackpot game is ended.

  The pachinko machine 10 according to the present embodiment is provided with a big hit 15R that determines the number of rounds of a round game that is a big hit game as 15 big hits and a big hit 2R that sets the prescribed round number as 2 times. In the present embodiment, when the type of jackpot symbol (special chart) that is confirmed and stopped is the special chart [0] [2], the specified number of rounds during the jackpot game is 15 and the fixed stop is displayed. When the type of jackpot symbol is the special chart [1], the specified number of rounds during the jackpot game is two. When a jackpot 15R is awarded to a player, a jackpot game with a prescribed round number of 15 is given, and when a jackpot 2R is awarded to a player, a jackpot game with a prescribed round number of 2 Is granted. The big hit 15R includes a probability change big hit in which a probability change state is given after the big hit game is finished and a non-probability big hit in which a probability change state is not given after the big hit game is finished. In the probability change big hit of 15R, the probability change state is given after the big hit game ends. On the other hand, the big hit 2R has only a probable big hit in which a probable change state is given after the big hit game ends. That is, after the big hit 2R big hit game is over, the probability variation state is always given.

Next, the control configuration of the pachinko machine 10 will be described with reference to FIG.
A main control board 30 that controls the entire pachinko machine 10 is mounted on the back side of the pachinko machine 10. The main control board 30 executes various processes for controlling the entire pachinko machine 10, performs arithmetic processing on various control signals (control commands) for controlling the game according to the processing results, and outputs the control signals ( Control command). In addition, an overall control board 31, a display control board 32, a lamp control board 33, and a sound control board 34 are mounted on the rear side of the machine. The overall control board 31 comprehensively controls the display control board 32, the lamp control board 33, and the sound control board 34 based on the control signal (control command) output from the main control board 30. The display control board 32 controls the display mode (display images of symbols, backgrounds, characters, etc.) of the variable display H2 based on control signals (control commands) output from the main control board 30 and the overall control board 31. The lamp control board 33 controls the light emission mode (lighting (flashing) / lighting off timing, etc.) of the decorative lamp 16 based on control signals (control commands) output from the main control board 30 and the overall control board 31. The sound control board 34 controls the sound output mode (sound output timing, etc.) of the speaker 17 based on the control signal (control command) output from the main control board 30 and the overall control board 31. In the present embodiment, the main control board 30 is the main control means. The overall control board 31, the display control board 32, the lamp control board 33, and the sound control board 34 serve as sub-control means. Further, the display control board 32 serves as an effect control means. Further, the overall control board 31 serves as an overall control means.

Hereinafter, specific configurations of the main control board 30, the overall control board 31, and the display control board 32 will be described.
The main control board 30 is provided with a main CPU 30a. A ROM 30b and a RAM 30c are connected to the main CPU 30a. A first start port sensor SE1, a second start port sensor SE2, a count switch SE3, and the like are connected to the main CPU 30a. The main CPU 30a is connected to a first special figure display H0, a second special figure display H1, a first hold indicator R, and a second hold indicator L. The main CPU 30a is connected to a special winning opening solenoid SOL1 and a normal electric accessory solenoid SOL2. Further, the main CPU 30a updates the values of various random numbers such as jackpot determination random numbers every predetermined cycle, stores (sets) the updated values in the setting area of the RAM 30c, and rewrites the values before the update.

  A main control program for controlling the entire pachinko machine 10 is stored in the ROM 30b. The ROM 30b stores a plurality of types of variation patterns. The variation pattern is a game effect (display effect, light emission) from when the symbol (special symbol and decoration) starts to fluctuate (the symbol variation game starts) until the symbol is stopped (the symbol variation game ends). This shows a pattern serving as a base for production and voice production. In other words, the variation pattern can specify the effect content and the effect time (the change time) of the symbol change game from when the special figure starts to change until the special figure is confirmed and stopped.

  The variation patterns can be broadly classified into a variation pattern P3 for a jackpot effect, a variation pattern P2 for a loss reach effect, and a variation pattern P1 for a loss effect. The jackpot effect is an effect that the symbol variation game is developed so that the symbol combination of the jackpot is finally stopped and displayed through the reach effect. The outlier reach effect is an effect that is developed so that the symbol variation game undergoes the reach effect, and finally displays the combination of symbols that are out of place. The outlier effect is an effect that is developed so that the symbol variation game finally displays the symbol combination of the outage without being subjected to the reach effect. The reach effect is an effect performed in the symbol variation game by the decorative symbol of the center actor 20 after the reach symbol combination is formed, until the jackpot symbol combination or the outlier symbol combination is derived. .

  When the first variation game is played based on the variation pattern P3 for the big hit effect, the big special symbol (for example, [2]) that can recognize the big hit on the first special figure display H0 and the variable display H2 respectively. And the jackpot symbol combination (for example, [111] etc.) is finally displayed. Further, when the second variation game is played based on the variation pattern P3 for the big hit effect, the big special symbol (for example, [[ 2]) and jackpot symbol combinations (for example, [111] etc.) are finally displayed. For example, when the first variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P3 for the big hit effect, after the reach effect is performed on the variable display H2, the combination of the big hit symbols by the decorative drawing is displayed and the first In the special figure display H0, the big hit symbol by the special figure is displayed.

  Then, when the first variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P2 for the outlier reach effect, the first symbol display device H0 and the variable display device H2 each have a symbol combination and a symbol combination that are out of place. It is displayed. Similarly, when the second variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P2 for the outlier reach effect, the second special symbol display H1 and the variable display H2 each have a symbol combination and a symbol combination that are out of place. Is displayed. For example, when the first variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P2 for the outlier reach effect, after the reach effect is performed on the variable display H2, the outlier combination by the decorative drawing is displayed, In the first special figure display H0, the off symbol according to the special figure is displayed.

  Then, when the first variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P1 for the offending effect, the first special figure display H0 and the variable display H2 each have the final symbol combination and the off symbol combination after the normal variation. It is designed to be displayed. When the second variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P1 for the offending effect, after the normal variation on the second special symbol display H1 and the variable display H2, a combination of a symbol and a symbol combination that is out of place is finally obtained. The pattern is displayed. For example, when the first variation game is performed based on the variation pattern P1 for the offending effect, the normal variation is performed after the start of the symbol variation game, and 15 seconds after the start, the variable display H2 causes a deviation due to the decorative drawing. The symbol combination is displayed, and the first special symbol display H0 displays a symbol that is out of the special symbol.

  In addition, the jackpot determination value is stored in the ROM 30b. The jackpot determination value is a determination value used in the internal lottery to determine whether or not the jackpot is reached, and is determined from numerical values (all 631 integers from 0 to 630) that the jackpot determination random number can take. The number of jackpot determination values differs depending on whether or not the probability variation state is given. The number of jackpot determination values in the probability variation state (10 in this embodiment) is the jackpot determination value in the normal state. Is set to be larger than the number (two in the present embodiment). The RAM 30c stores a big hit determination random number used when determining the big hit. In the present embodiment, the jackpot determination random number is acquired when the game ball wins the first start winning opening 25 or the second starting winning opening 27, and the first variation game and the second It is commonly used in fluctuating games. In other words, the jackpot determination random number acquired when the game ball wins the first start winning opening 25 is the same as the jackpot determination random number acquired when the game ball wins the second start winning opening 27. belongs to. The jackpot determination value is also commonly used in the first variable game and the second variable game. That is, the jackpot determination value used in the jackpot determination value based on the first special figure start reserved memory number is the same as the jackpot determination value used in the jackpot determination based on the second special figure start hold memory number.

  The RAM 30c stores special figure distribution random numbers used when determining the type of special figure ([0] to [2] in this embodiment) that becomes a big hit symbol when the big hit is determined. Each special figure is assigned a predetermined number of special figure distribution random numbers, and the main CPU 30a, when determining the big hit (when the big hit determination is affirmative), the big hit based on the acquired special figure distribution random number The symbol (any one of [0] to [2]) is determined. The special CPU distribution random number is set so that the main CPU 30a can take a numerical value within a predetermined numerical value range (in the present embodiment, all 100 kinds of integers from “0” to “99”) at predetermined intervals. The value is updated by adding 1 to the value (every 4 ms). Then, the main CPU 30a stores the updated values in the RAM 30c as special figure distribution random number values, and sequentially updates the special figure distribution random number values by rewriting the already stored special figure distribution random number values. It is supposed to be. In the present embodiment, the special figure distribution random number is acquired when the game ball has won the first start winning opening 25 or the second starting winning opening 27. Commonly used in two fluctuation games. That is, the special distribution random number acquired when the game ball wins the first start winning opening 25 is the special distribution random number acquired when the game ball wins the second start winning opening 27. Is the same.

  The distribution of the special figure distribution random numbers differs depending on which of the first variation game and the second variation game is executed. Specifically, [0] indicating that the first variation game is to be executed is set in the special symbol variation processing flag indicating that any of the first variation game and the second variation game is to be executed. In this case, 40 special figure distribution random numbers are assigned to the special figure [0], 20 to the special figure [1], and 40 to the special figure [2]. That is, when a big hit is made in the first floating game, the special figure [0] is displayed with a probability of 40/100 as the big hit symbol, the special figure [1] is displayed with a probability of 20/100, and the special figure [2 ] Is displayed with a probability of 40/100.

  If the special symbol variation processing flag is set to [1] indicating that the second variation game is to be performed, the special symbol [0] has 40 pieces, the special figure [1] has seven pieces, In FIG. [2], 53 special figure distribution random numbers are distributed. That is, when the big game is a big hit in the second variable game, the special figure [0] is displayed with a probability of 40/100 as the big hit symbol, the special figure [1] is displayed with a probability of 7/100, and the special figure [2 ] Is displayed with a probability of 53/100. On the other hand, when the loss is determined (when the big hit determination is negative), the loss symbol ([−]) is determined. The RAM 30c stores various information (such as various random values) that can be appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko machine 10.

Next, the overall control board 31 will be described with reference to FIG.
The overall control board 31 is provided with an overall CPU 31a. A ROM 31b and a RAM 31c are connected to the overall CPU 31a. The overall CPU 31a updates various random number values at predetermined intervals, stores (sets) the updated values in the setting area of the RAM 31c, and rewrites the values before the update. The ROM 31b stores an overall control program for comprehensively controlling the display control board 32, the lamp control board 33, and the sound control board 34. When the general CPU 31a inputs various control commands, the general CPU 31a executes various controls based on the general control program.

Next, the display control board 32 will be described with reference to FIG.
The display control board 32 is provided with a sub CPU 32a. A ROM 32b and a RAM 32c are connected to the sub CPU 32a. A variable display H2 is connected to the display control board 32 (sub CPU 32a). The ROM 32b stores a display control program for controlling the display contents of the variable display H2. The ROM 32b stores various image data (image data such as symbols, various background images, characters, characters, etc.). The RAM 32c stores (sets) various information that can be appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko machine 10.

  Next, various processes such as a winning process and a variation pattern determination process executed by the main CPU 30a based on the main control program will be described. First, the special symbol input process will be described with reference to FIG.

  The main CPU 30a determines whether or not a game ball has entered the first start winning opening 25 (step S1). That is, in step S1, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not a first detection signal output when the first start port sensor SE1 detects a game ball is input. When the determination result of step S1 is negative, the main CPU 30a proceeds to step S5. If the determination result of step S1 is affirmative, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not the first special figure start pending storage number stored in the RAM 30c is less than the upper limit number 4 (step S2). If the determination result of step S2 is negative (first special figure start hold storage number = 4), the main CPU 30a proceeds to step 5.

  If the determination result in step S2 is affirmative (first special figure start reserved memory number <4), the main CPU 30a increments the first special figure start reserved memory number by 1 (1), and the first special figure start reserved memory number. Is rewritten (step S3). Subsequently, the main CPU 30a reads and acquires the value of the jackpot determination random number and the special figure distribution random number from the RAM 30c, and stores the values in a predetermined memory of the RAM 30c associated with the first special figure start pending storage number. An area is set (step S4).

  Next, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not a game ball has entered the second start winning opening 27 (step S5). That is, in step S5, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not a second detection signal output when the second start port sensor SE2 detects a game ball is input. When the determination result of step S5 is negative, the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol input process. If the determination result of step S5 is affirmative, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not the second special figure start pending storage number stored in the RAM 30c is less than the upper limit number of 4 (step S6). If the determination result of step S6 is negative (second special figure start hold storage number = 4), the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol input process.

  If the determination result of step S6 is affirmative (second special figure start reserved memory number <4), the main CPU 30a increments the second special figure start reserved memory number by 1 (one addition), and the second special figure start reserved memory number. Is rewritten (step S7). Subsequently, the main CPU 30a reads out and acquires the value of the random number for jackpot determination and the value of the special figure distribution random number from the RAM 30c, and stores the values in a predetermined memory of the RAM 30c associated with the second special figure start pending storage number. An area is set (step S8). Thereafter, the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol input process.

Next, the special symbol start process will be described with reference to FIGS. The main CPU 30a executes a special symbol start process every predetermined cycle.
First, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not the symbol (special drawing and decoration drawing) is being displayed in a variable manner and whether or not a big hit game is being played (step S11). When the determination result of step S11 is affirmative (when the symbol variation game is being played or when the jackpot game is being played), the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, when the determination result of step S11 is negative (when the symbol variation game is not being played and the big hit game is not being played), the main CPU 30a reads the second special figure start reserved memory number (step S12) and starts the second special figure start. It is determined whether or not the number of reserved memories is greater than “0” (step S13).

  When the determination result of step S13 is negative (when the second special figure start hold memory number = 0), the main CPU 30a reads the first special figure start hold memory number (step S14), and the first special figure start hold memory is stored. It is determined whether or not the number is larger than “0” (step S15). When the determination result of step S15 is negative (when the first special figure start hold storage number = 0), the main CPU 30a determines whether or not a demonstration designation command for starting execution of the demonstration effect has already been output (step S15). S16). If this determination result is negative (when no demonstration designation command is output), the main CPU 30a outputs a demonstration designation command (step S17). Then, the special symbol start process ends. If the determination result in step S16 is affirmative (if a demonstration designation command is output), the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process as it is.

  On the other hand, if the determination result in step S15 is affirmative (if the first special figure start hold storage number> 0), the main CPU 30a sets the first symbol variation processing flag stored in the predetermined storage area of the RAM 30c to the first variation. A value [0] indicating that the game is to be executed is set (step S18). Next, the main CPU 30a subtracts "-1" from the number of the first special figure start hold memory number (-1) (step S19), and is associated with the first special figure start hold memory number for a predetermined amount in the RAM 30c. The big hit determination random number and special figure distribution random number stored in the storage area are acquired (step S20).

  Next, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not the acquired jackpot determination random number value matches the jackpot determination value stored in the ROM 30b and performs a jackpot determination (hit lottery) (step S21). In the present embodiment, the jackpot determination value is changed depending on whether or not the probability variation state is given. In the normal state (when the probability is low), the probability that the determination result of the jackpot determination is affirmative (the probability of jackpot) is 2/631. The probability that the result is affirmative (hit probability) is 10/631.

  If the determination result in step S21 is affirmative (in the case of a big hit), the main CPU 30a sets [1] to a big hit flag indicating that the change is a big hit (step S22). Then, the main CPU 30a determines a final stop symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display H0 from the big hit symbols based on the special diagram based on the acquired special symbol distribution random number value (step S23). . The jackpot symbol based on the special figure is any one of [0] to [2], and the main CPU 30a determines the special figure from these. At this time, since the special symbol variation processing flag is set to [0], the main CPU 30a determines in step S23 based on the distribution of the special symbol distribution random numbers of each special diagram in the first variation game. The special figure [0] is determined with a probability of 40/100, the special figure [1] is determined with a probability of 20/100, and the special figure [2] is determined with a probability of 40/100.

  Thereafter, the main CPU 30a determines a variation pattern P3 for a big hit effect (step S24). The main CPU 30a that has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol executes various processes related to the first variation game, such as outputting a predetermined control command to the overall control board 31 (overall CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing (step). S25).

  Specifically, the main CPU 30a first outputs a variation pattern designation command that designates a variation pattern and instructs the start of symbol variation. At the same time, the main CPU 30a controls the display content of the first special figure display H0 so that the special figure starts to fluctuate. At the same time, the main CPU 30a starts measuring the effect time of the symbol variation game. Further, the main CPU 30a outputs a special symbol designation command for designating the final stop symbol. After that, the main CPU 30a controls the display content of the first special figure display H0 so that the determined final stop symbol is displayed based on the effect time determined in the designated variation pattern. Further, the main CPU 30a instructs decoration stoppage of the decorative drawing based on the effect time determined in the specified change pattern, and outputs an all symbol stop command for displaying the symbol combination fixedly stopped. Thereafter, the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the determination result of the big hit determination of step S21 is negative (when it is not a big hit), the main CPU 30a determines the special figure [-] indicating the loss as the final stop symbol (step S26). Then, the main CPU 30a determines a variation pattern from the variation pattern P2 for outlier reach effect and the variation pattern P1 for outlier effect (step S27). Then, the main CPU 30a that has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol moves to the process of step S25, and outputs a predetermined control command to the overall control board 31 (overall CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing. Various processes related to the variable game are executed. Thereafter, the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the determination result in step S13 is affirmative (when the second special figure start hold storage number> 0), the main CPU 30a sets the second fluctuation in the special symbol fluctuation processing flag stored in the predetermined storage area of the RAM 30c. A value [1] indicating that the game is to be executed is set (step S28). Next, the main CPU 30a subtracts "-1" from the number of the second special figure start reserved memory number (-1) (step S29), and is associated with the second special figure start reserved memory number for a predetermined amount in the RAM 30c. The big hit determination random number and special figure distribution random number stored in the storage area are acquired (step S30).

  Next, the main CPU 30a determines whether or not the acquired jackpot determination random number value matches the jackpot determination value stored in the ROM 30b and performs a jackpot determination (hit lottery) (step S31). In the present embodiment, the jackpot determination value is changed depending on whether or not the probability variation state is given. In the normal state (when the probability is low), the probability that the determination result of the jackpot determination is affirmative (the probability of jackpot) is 2/631. The probability that the result is affirmative (hit probability) is 10/631.

  When the determination result of step S31 is affirmative (in the case of a big hit), the main CPU 30a sets [1] to the big hit flag indicating that the change is a big hit (step S32). Then, the main CPU 30a determines a final stop symbol to be finalized and stopped on the second special symbol display H1 from the jackpot symbol based on the special diagram based on the acquired special symbol distribution random value (step S33). . The jackpot symbol based on the special figure is any one of [0] to [2], and the main CPU 30a determines the special figure from these. At this time, since the special symbol variation processing flag is set to [1], the main CPU 30a determines in step S33 based on the distribution of the special symbol distribution random number of each special diagram in the second variation game. The special figure [0] is determined with a probability of 40/100, the special figure [1] is determined with a probability of 7/100, and the special figure [2] is determined with a probability of 53/100.

  Thereafter, the main CPU 30a determines a variation pattern P3 for a big hit effect (step S34). The main CPU 30a that has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol executes various processes related to the second variation game, such as outputting a predetermined control command to the overall control board 31 (overall CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing (step). S35).

  Specifically, the main CPU 30a first outputs a variation pattern designation command that designates a variation pattern and instructs the start of symbol variation. At the same time, the main CPU 30a controls the display content of the second special figure display H1 so that the special figure starts to fluctuate. At the same time, the main CPU 30a starts measuring the effect time of the symbol variation game. Further, the main CPU 30a outputs a special symbol designation command for designating the final stop symbol. After that, the main CPU 30a controls the display content of the second special-figure display H1 so that the determined final stop symbol is displayed based on the effect time set in the designated variation pattern. Further, the main CPU 30a instructs decoration stoppage of the decorative drawing based on the effect time determined in the specified change pattern, and outputs an all symbol stop command for displaying the symbol combination fixedly stopped. Thereafter, the main CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the determination result of the big hit determination of step S31 is negative (when it is not a big hit), the main CPU 30a determines a special figure [-] indicating a loss as a final stop symbol (step S36). Then, the main CPU 30a determines a variation pattern from the variation pattern P2 for outlier reach effect and the variation pattern P1 for outlier effect (step S37). Then, the main CPU 30a having determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol moves to the process of step S35 and outputs a predetermined control command to the overall control board 31 (overall CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing. Various processes related to the fluctuating game are executed.

  When the main CPU 30a determines the big hit (when [1] is set in the big hit flag), the main CPU 30a starts the control of the big hit game when the big hit comes after the end of the symbol variation game based on the determined variation pattern. Then, a predetermined control command is output at a predetermined timing to the general control board 31 (general CPU 31a). Specifically, the main CPU 30a first outputs an opening command for designating an effect pattern in the opening effect. Next, the main CPU 30a outputs a round command for designating an effect pattern in each round effect at the start of each round game. At that time, the main CPU 30a opens and closes the grand prize winning door 28 for each round game. Then, at the end of the final round, the main CPU 30a outputs an ending command for designating an effect pattern in the ending effect, and ends the big hit game.

  At that time, the main CPU 30a sets various flags based on the special figure (final stop symbol) displayed at the end of the symbol variation game. Specifically, the main CPU 30a sets a probability change flag indicating that the gaming state is a probability change state when the special figure [1] [2] is displayed as the final stop symbol. Further, when the special CPU [0] is displayed as the final stop symbol, the main CPU 30a clears the probability variation flag to indicate that the gaming state is the normal state. Further, the main CPU 30a sets (clears) the big hit flag to [0]. Each flag is stored in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 30c.

  As described above, the main CPU 30a of the present embodiment serves as a big hit determination means for determining whether or not the symbol variation game is a big hit. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a variation pattern determination unit that determines a variation pattern. The RAM 30c serves as first hold storage means for storing a big hit determination random number in a predetermined area associated with the first special figure start hold storage number. The RAM 30c serves as second hold storage means for storing a big hit determination random number in a predetermined area associated with the second special figure start hold storage number. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as special game state giving determination means for determining whether or not to give a probability variation state (special game state) after the end of the big hit game. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a jackpot game determining means for determining the game content (the number of specified round games) of the jackpot game. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a random number acquisition unit that acquires a jackpot determination random number upon detection of winning of a game ball. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a symbol random number acquisition means for acquiring a special symbol distribution random number (symbol random number) upon detection of winning of a game ball. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a first symbol determination means for determining a final stop symbol to be displayed with a fixed stop at the end of the first variable game, based on the special symbol distribution random number. Further, the main CPU 30a serves as a second symbol determination means for determining a final stop symbol to be displayed with a fixed stop at the end of the second variable game, based on the special symbol distribution random number.

  By executing such a special symbol start process, when both the first special figure start reserved memory number and the second special figure start reserved memory number are stored, the main CPU 30a performs the second variable game. Is executed preferentially. The second start winning opening 27 has an opening / closing blade 26 that is open when the probability variation state or the short time state is given, so that the game ball is likely to win a prize. The second variable game is easily executed continuously. When the second variation game is a big hit, the ratio of whether or not the probability variation state is given is not different from that of the first variation game, but when the probability variation state is given, whether or not the big hit is 15R. The ratio is different. In other words, the distribution of special figure distribution random numbers is different. For this reason, when it is a probable big hit in the second variable game, the probability that the prescribed round number of games is 15 rounds is higher than that in the first variable game. That is, if the big hit 15R that can be expected to acquire more game balls than the big hit 2R is a big hit game with advantageous game contents for the player, and the second variable game is a promising big hit, this big hit 15R Is higher than that of the first variation game.

  As described above, in the probability variation state, the second variation game is likely to be continuously executed, and when the probability variation big hit is achieved in the second variation game, the probability of being a big hit 15R as compared to the first variation game is increased. Since it is high, there is a high probability that the specified number of round games will be 15 rounds when the probability variation big hits continue in the probability variation state or the short time state.

  Next, various processes executed by the overall CPU 31a of the overall control board 31 based on the overall control program will be described. When a predetermined control command is input from the main CPU 30a at a predetermined timing, the overall CPU 31a outputs a predetermined control command at a predetermined timing accordingly. More specifically, when the general CPU 31a inputs a variation pattern designation command, the overall CPU 31a outputs the variation pattern designation command to each of the control boards 32-34. Similarly, when the opening CPU, the round command, and the ending command are input, the overall CPU 31a outputs the opening command, the round command, and the ending command to the control boards 32 to 34, respectively.

  When the general CPU 31a inputs a special symbol designation command, the overall CPU 31a determines a symbol combination based on the decorative symbols to be displayed on the variable display H2 based on the special symbol designation command. Then, the overall CPU 31a outputs a decorative design designation command for designating the determined decorative design of each column to the display control board 32. Further, when the main CPU 30a inputs an all symbols stop command, the main CPU 30a outputs the command to the display control board 32.

Next, various processes executed by the sub CPU 32a of the display control board 32 based on the display control program will be described.
When the sub CPU 32a inputs a control command from the overall control board 31 (overall CPU 31a), the sub CPU 32a performs control according to the input control command based on the display control program. Specifically, when the sub CPU 32a inputs the variation pattern designation command, the display of the variable display H2 is displayed so that the decorative symbols are variably displayed with the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command to start the symbol combination game. Control the content. When the sub CPU 32a inputs the all symbol stop command, the sub CPU 32a controls the display content of the variable display H2 so that the symbol combination designated by the inputted decoration design designation command is displayed on the variable display H2. By this control, the symbol change game is performed on the variable display H2.

  Further, when the opening command is input, the sub CPU 32a controls the display content of the variable display H2 so as to execute the opening effect. Further, when the sub CPU 32a inputs a round command, the sub CPU 32a controls the display content of the variable display H2 so as to execute a round effect. Further, when the ending command is input, the sub CPU 32a controls the display content of the variable display H2 so as to execute the ending effect. Thereby, in the variable display H2, an opening effect, a round effect, and an ending effect are each performed.

As described above in detail, the present embodiment has the following effects.
(1) When both the first special figure start reserved memory number and the second special figure start reserved memory number are 1 or more, the main CPU 30a associates with the second special figure start reserved memory number in a predetermined area of the RAM 30c. The jackpot determination is preferentially executed based on the stored jackpot determination random number (that is, the jackpot determination random number stored as the second special figure start holding ball). In addition, when the final stop symbol becomes a probable variation symbol, the main CPU 30a determines that the big hit determination based on the big hit determination random number stored as the second special figure start holding ball becomes affirmative, as the first start holding ball. Compared with the case where the jackpot determination based on the stored jackpot determination random number becomes affirmative, the jackpot game having a game content advantageous to the player is determined with high probability. Specifically, in the case of a promising big hit, the second variable game that was performed with the detection of the winning at the second starting winning port 27 was performed with the detection of the winning at the first starting winning port 25 There is a high probability of being a big hit 15R compared to the first variable game. And, since the second start winning opening 27 is given the bonus rate improvement state as a privilege when the probability variation state is given, it is easier to detect the game ball than the first starting winning opening 25. It is comprised so that it may become.

  For this reason, when the probability variation state is given and it is easy to win the game ball in the second start winning port 27, the symbol variation game based on the game ball won in the second start winning port 27 (second variation game) Is easier to be executed. When a game ball wins the second start winning opening 27 and a big hit is made, a big hit game (big hit 15R) having a game content advantageous to the player is determined with high probability. For this reason, when the probability variation state is given and the probability variation big hit is continuously made, there is a high possibility that the big hit game (big hit 15R) of the game contents advantageous to the player will continue. On the other hand, the probability that the probability variation state is given does not change. That is, it is possible to suppress the probability that consecutive probable big hits are continued, and there is no significant disadvantage for the game store. Therefore, the player side who wants to acquire a large number of game balls can prevent the big hit game (big hit 2R) of the game contents disadvantageous to the player from being continued without changing the rate at which the probability variation state is given. And the speculation of the player who wants to reduce the number of game balls acquired can be balanced.

  (2) The jackpot determination random number acquired in response to the detection of a game ball winning in the first start winning opening 25 and the jackpot determination random number acquired in response to the detection of a game ball winning in the second start winning opening 27 are , Use a common random number. Also, at the time of jackpot determination, a common jackpot determination value is used regardless of whether the game is the first variation game or the second variation game. In this way, since the jackpot determination random number and the jackpot determination value are commonly used, the control program can be simplified, and the control burden and the storage capacity of the ROM 30b can be reduced.

  (3) Regardless of the first variation game or the second variation game, the same random number is used for the special figure distribution random number used when determining the jackpot symbol. Thereby, the control program can be simplified, and the control burden and the storage capacity of the ROM 30b can be reduced. In addition, whether or not the probability variation state is given depending on the type of special figure, and the prescribed number of round games are determined. For this reason, the main CPU 30a can determine whether or not to give the probability variation state and the prescribed number of round games only by determining the special bonus chart, and can be processed with a simple control program.

  (4) Since the types of special figures to be displayed on the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1 are the same, it is determined whether or not the probability variation state is given or whether the game is a big hit game depending on whether or not it is the first variation game It is not necessary to change the process for determining the contents, and the process can be performed with a simple control program.

  (5) In the second variation game, when the probability variation jackpot to which the probability variation state is given, the average of the prescribed round games number per jackpot game is 10.7R. Further, in the first variation game, when the probability variation jackpot to which the probability variation state is given, the average of the prescribed round number of games per jackpot game is 13.5R. On the other hand, in the first variation game and the second variation game, in the case of a non-probable variation big hit, the average of the prescribed round number of games per big hit game does not change (that is, 15 rounds). Therefore, from a comprehensive viewpoint, the second variation game has a higher probability of being awarded a jackpot game having a game content advantageous to the player than the first variation game. When the game is executed, the expectation for the big hit is higher and the interest of the game is improved.

  In the second variation game, when the probability variation jackpot to which the probability variation state is given, the average of the prescribed round number of games per jackpot game is obtained by a weighted average, specifically, 2R × (probability variation). Probability of 2R jackpot (7/60)) + 15R × (Probability of 15R probability change jackpot (53/60)). Similarly, in the first variation game, when the probability variation jackpot to which the probability variation state is given, the average of the prescribed round game number of the jackpot game per game is 2R × (probability of 2R probability probability game (20/60 )) + 15R × (probability (15/40) of probability variation big hit 15R).

  (6) Regardless of whether the first variation game or the second variation game is performed, the variable display H2 executes the symbol combination game corresponding to the first variation game or the second variation game. The symbol combination game performed on the variable display H2 has a larger display area than the first variation game and the second variation game performed on the special illustration displays H0 and H1, so that the player The displayed symbol variation game is not conscious of either the first variation game or the second variation game. For this reason, when the symbol combination game is executed on the variable display H2, the player is unaware of whether the game is the first variation game or the second variation game. It can be expected that it will be a symbol variation game with a high probability of becoming a promising big hit.

  (7) Regardless of whether the first variation game or the second variation game is performed, the symbol combination game on the variable display H2 is executed based on the same variation pattern. For this reason, the number of fluctuation patterns can be reduced, and the storage amount of the ROM 30b can be reduced.

In addition, the said embodiment can be embodied in another embodiment (another example) as follows.
-In the above embodiment, when the probability variation state is granted, the specified round game number can be changed. However, when the non-probability variation state is granted, the prescribed round game number can be changed. good. For example, in the first variable game, the probability of being a big hit 15R may be lowered, and in the second variable game, the probability of being a big hit 15R may be increased. In other words, when the second variable game becomes an uncertain variable big hit, the probability of being a big hit 15R may be increased as compared to the case where the first variable game becomes an uncertain variable big hit.

  Specifically, four types of special figures [0] to [3] are prepared. When special figure [0] is displayed, non-probable large hit 15R, and special figure [1] is displayed. When the probability variation big hit 2R and the special figure [2] are displayed, the probability variation big hit 15R is displayed. When the special figure [3] is displayed, the non-probable big hit 2R is configured. In the first variation game, the probability of non-probability large hit 15R (special figure [0]) is 10/100, the probability of probable big hit 2R (special figure [1]) is 20/100, and the probability variable big hit 15R. The probability of becoming (special figure [2]) is 40/100, and the probability of being 2R (non-probable variation big hit) (special figure [3]) is 30/100. In the second variation game, the probability of 15R for non-probable variation big hit (Special figure [0]) is 30/100, the probability of 2R for probable big change (Special figure [1]) is 7/100, and the probability variation big hit is 15R. It is assumed that the probability of becoming (Special Figure [2]) is 53/100, and the probability of becoming 2R with non-probability variation (Special Figure [3]) is 10/100.

  As a result, when the probability variation state is given and the second variation game is likely to be executed, even if the probability variation state is not imparted in the second variation game, even if it is a non-probability variation big hit, The probability that a game is given increases, and the player is less likely to be disappointed when the probability variation state ends.

In the above embodiment, the first start winning port 25 and the second starting winning port 27 are provided one by one, but a plurality may be provided.
In the above embodiment, the number of specified round games is different depending on the type of special bonus game, but the opening time of the big winning door 28 in each round game may be different. In other words, when the probability variation jackpot is made in the second floating game, the opening time of the big winning door 28 in each round game is higher than the case where the probability variation jackpot is made in the first variation game. A long jackpot game may be given.

  In the above embodiment, the first variation game and the second variation game are configured in the same way as the number of specified round games of the jackpot game to be granted, but the ratio of the probability change state is changed. If not, it may be changed arbitrarily. For example, in the second variable game, the probability of 15R for non-probable variation big may be 40/100, and the probability of 15R for probability variation big may be 60/100. In this case, 40 special figure distribution random numbers acquired in response to the winning of the game ball to the second start winning opening 27 are assigned to the special figure [0], and 0 are assigned to the special figure [1]. 60 pieces are allocated to the special figure [2].

  -In the said embodiment, if the ratio by which a probability variation state is provided is not changed, the kind of jackpot game from which the number of prescribed | regulated round games differs may be increased. For example, in the second variation game, the probability of 15R for non-probable variation is 40/100, the probability that the specified round number of games is 10R for 10 rounds of probability variation is 30/100, and the probability of 2R for probability variation is 5R. / 100, and the probability of a probability variation of 15R may be 25/100.

  In the above embodiment, the first special figure display H0 and the second special figure display H1 are provided as the special figure display, and the first variation game and the second variation game are performed in different display areas. A special symbol display game may be played in the same display area with only one special symbol display. In this way, it can be made unknown whether or not the symbol variation game currently being performed is the first variation game. Moreover, it is sufficient to provide only one special figure indicator, and the cost can be reduced.

  In the above embodiment, the symbol combination game on the variable display H2 is executed with the same variation pattern regardless of whether the first variation game or the second variation game is performed. The symbol combination game on the variable display H2 may be executed. In this way, the player can easily determine whether or not the symbol combination game currently being executed on the variable display H2 is the second variable game, and the big hit with a large number of prescribed round games. Whether or not a game can be expected can be easily identified.

  In the above embodiment, one variation pattern for the big hit effect, one variation pattern for the outlier reach effect, and one variation pattern for the outlier effect are provided, but a plurality of each may be provided. Further, at that time, the distribution of the variation pattern may be different between when the first variation game is performed and when the second variation game is performed. If it does in this way, it can be suggested from the effect contents of the symbol combination game in the variable display H2 whether it is the 2nd variation game, and the 2nd variation game in the symbol combination game in the variable display H2. Even if it is not possible to determine whether or not it is, the player can determine from the contents of the effect whether or not there is a high possibility of being the second variable game. For this reason, it is possible to make the player pay attention to the symbol combination game on the variable display H2, and the interest of the game is improved.
