Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a slot machine capable of improving taste of a game by executing a suggestive performance by effectively using a period after a confirmation suggestive performance has been executed.SOLUTION: The slot machine can execute a first possibility suggestive performance for suggesting a possibility that a continuous performance may be executed during a precursor mode controlled till the continuous performance is executed, the continuous performance for notifying of a result related to a prize offer; a confirmation suggestive performance for confirmedly suggesting whether or not the continuous performance is executed; and a second possibility suggestive performance for suggesting a possibility of the prize offer. In the precursor mode, during a confirmed period after having executed the confirmation suggestive performance and suggesting that the continuous performance is surely executed, the second possibility suggestive performance is executed at a high probability different from the previous unconfirmed period.

Description

  The present invention relates to, for example, a slot machine. Specifically, the game can be started by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using the game value, and a variable display device capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information that can be individually identified. The present invention relates to a slot machine in which one game is completed when a display result is derived, and a winning can be generated according to the display result derived to the variable display device.

  A slot machine generally includes a variable display device having a plurality of (usually three) reels on which a plurality of types of symbols as identification information are drawn on the outer periphery, and first, a bet number is determined by a player's BET operation. The reels start to rotate when the start operation is performed with the set number of bets set, and the rotation is stopped by operating a stop button provided corresponding to each reel. When all reels stop rotating, a winning combination is generated when a predetermined winning symbol combination (for example, 7-7-7, hereinafter referred to as a symbol combination) is arranged on the winning line. To do. That is, the game is advanced by the player's operation.

  These winning combinations include special roles with a transition to a special gaming state that is advantageous to the player, small roles with the addition of gaming values such as medals, and replays that can be played without using gaming values. There is a re-playing role accompanied by a game. In general, these winning combinations can be won on the condition that an internal lottery performed simultaneously with the start operation is won.

  In addition, in this type of slot machine, a predetermined effect (for example, a battle effect) for notifying information related to the provision of a benefit that is advantageous to the player is executed at a predetermined timing, and a sign of the predetermined timing is obtained. During the period, there was one that performed a suggestive effect that gave a sense of expectation that the predetermined effect would be executed (for example, see Patent Document 1).

JP 2011-254920 A

  However, the slot machine described in Patent Document 1 determines a suggestion effect to be executed at a certain rate during the precursor period up to a predetermined timing. For this reason, for example, when a confirmed suggestion effect that indicates that a predetermined effect is to be executed by a predetermined timing is executed, even if the confirmed suggestion effect is executed, The suggestion effect is determined at the same rate as before execution. That is, in the period after the confirmed suggestion effect is executed, the suggested effect including the confirmed suggestion effect is executed in the same manner as before the confirmed suggestion effect is executed. As a result, there is a possibility that the suggestion effect cannot be executed by effectively utilizing the period after the confirmed suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game may be reduced.

  The present invention has been conceived in view of such circumstances, and its purpose is to improve the interest of the game by executing the suggestion effect by effectively utilizing the period after the confirmed suggestion effect is executed. It is an object to provide a slot machine that can be used.

(1) A variable display device capable of starting a game by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using a game value and variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each of which can be identified A slot machine (slot machine 1) in which one game is completed when a display result is derived to (reels 2L, 2C, 2R) and a winning can be generated according to the display result derived to the variable display device. Because
Privilege grant determining means (internal lottery, AT lottery process) for determining whether or not to grant a privilege (AT, bonus, premier effect execution, set value suggestion effect execution, etc.);
A grant-related effect for executing a grant-related effect (continuous effect) composed of at least an introduction part for notifying the determination result of the privilege grant determination means and a main part for notifying the determination result following the introduction part. Execution means (FIGS. 30 to 32);
Suggesting effect execution means (see FIG. 24) for executing the suggesting effect that suggests predetermined information until the grant-related effect is executed,
The suggestion effect includes an execution confirmation suggestion effect (confirmation suggestion effect) that suggests that the grant-related effect is always executed, and an executable possibility suggestion effect (first) that suggests the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed. A possibility suggestion effect) and a privilege grant possibility suggestion effect (second possibility suggestion effect) that suggests the possibility of being notified of the provision of the privilege by the grant-related effect.
In the period (YES in S01 of FIG. 24 and YES in S04) from the execution of the execution confirmation suggestion to the execution of the provision-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion The bonus granting suggestion effect is executed at a higher rate than the period other than the period (NO in S04 of FIG. 24) (FIG. 29).

  According to such a configuration, in a period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, unlike a period other than the period, In the grant-related effect, a privilege grant possibility suggesting effect that suggests the possibility of notifying that the privilege is granted is executed. For this reason, the privilege grant possibility suggestion effect about the privilege which is the target meaningful to be notified in the period after the execution confirmed suggestion effect is executed can be executed at a high rate in the period. As a result, the suggestion effect can be executed by effectively utilizing the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  In the period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, the suggestion effect execution means has a higher ratio than the period other than the period. If a grant possibility suggesting effect is to be executed, for example, the period from the execution confirmation suggestion effect to the execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect is not a period The execution possibility suggesting effect may be executed at a lower rate (see the “About the execution ratio of the suggested effect in the confirmed period” column in the modification example), and the execution confirmed suggestion effect is executed. The execution feasibility suggesting effect is not executed during the period until the execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggesting effect. It may be.

  The suggestion target of the feasibility suggesting effect only needs to include at least the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed. For example, the possibility that the privilege is given by the grant-related effect is notified. It may be included, and may include only the possibility that the above-mentioned provision-related effect is executed (see the column “About the suggestion of the feasibility suggesting effect” in the modification).

(2) A variable display device capable of starting a game by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using the game value and variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each of which can be identified A slot machine (slot machine 1) in which one game is completed when a display result is derived to (reels 2L, 2C, 2R) and a winning can be generated according to the display result derived to the variable display device. Because
Privilege grant determining means (internal lottery, AT lottery process) for determining the degree of advantage of the privilege to be granted (AT, bonus, premier effect execution, set value suggestion effect execution, etc.);
A grant-related effect for executing a grant-related effect (continuous effect) composed of at least an introduction part for notifying the determination result of the privilege grant determination means and a main part for notifying the determination result following the introduction part. Execution means (FIGS. 30 to 32);
Suggesting effect execution means (see FIG. 24) for executing the suggesting effect that suggests predetermined information until the grant-related effect is executed,
The suggestion effect includes an execution confirmation suggestion effect (confirmation suggestion effect) that suggests that the grant-related effect is always executed, and an executable possibility suggestion effect (first) that suggests the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed. A possibility suggesting effect) and an advantage suggesting effect (refer to the [Advantage suggesting effect] column in the modified example) that suggests the advantage degree of the privilege notified by the grant-related effect,
In the period (YES in S01 of FIG. 24 and YES in S04) from the execution of the execution confirmation suggestion to the execution of the provision-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion The advantage suggesting effect is executed at a higher rate than the period that is not the period (NO in S04 of FIG. 24) (FIG. 29).

  According to such a configuration, in a period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, unlike a period other than the period, An advantage suggestion effect that suggests an advantage level of the privilege notified in the grant-related effect is executed. For this reason, the advantage suggestion effect about the privilege which is the target meaningful to be notified in the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed can be executed at a high rate in the period. As a result, the suggestion effect can be executed by effectively utilizing the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  In the period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, the suggestion effect execution means is more advantageous than the period other than the period. If the execution suggestion effect is to be executed, for example, the period from the execution confirmation suggestion effect to the execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect is longer than the period other than the period. The execution possibility suggestion effect may be executed at a low rate (see the “About the execution ratio of the suggestion effect in the fixed period” column in the modified example), and the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed. Even if the execution-related suggestion effect is not executed in the period until the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, There.

  The suggestion target of the feasibility suggestion effect only needs to include at least the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed, and includes, for example, the degree of benefit of the privilege notified by the grant-related effect. Alternatively, it may include only the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed (see the column [About the suggestion of the feasibility suggesting effect] in the modification).

  The grant-related effects in (1) and (2) above are composed of an introduction part until the determination result of the privilege grant determination means is notified and a main part that notifies the determination result following the introduction part. For example, a series of continuous effects (battle effects, mission effects, etc.) executed over a plurality of games, or a single game effect (specific character) executed in one game. Appearance etc.) (refer to the “About the grant-related effects” column in the modification). Further, the introduction unit may be a unit corresponding to an effect until the determination result of the privilege grant determining means is notified, and includes an effect related to the determination result and an effect unrelated to the determination result. May be. Moreover, the main part should just be a part equivalent to the production | presentation which alert | reports the said determination result following this introduction part, and does not have the production | presentation which has the continuity (relevance) with an introduction part, or an introduction part. It may include a production (unrelated).

  Further, the benefits in the above (1) and (2) are values that directly affect the ratio (medal payout rate) of the gaming value given to the player to the gaming value used for setting the number of bets ( (The probability mode lottery, Navistock, etc.), it does not directly affect the proportion of the gaming value given to the player to the gaming value used to set the number of bets, and is beneficial to the player in the progress of the game Value (suggested effect, finalized effect, premier effect, etc.) (see “About Benefits” in the variation).

  (3) In the slot machine of the above (1), the privilege grant determining means determines the degree of advantage when the privilege is granted (FIG. 19).

  According to such a structure, the privilege degree of the privilege provided can be varied and the interest of the game can be improved.

(4) In the slot machine of the above (3), the suggestion effect is an advantage suggestion effect that suggests an advantage degree of the privilege notified by the grant-related effect (see the [About the advantage suggestion effect] column in the modification) Including
In the period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant-related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, the suggestion effect execution means is more advantageous than the period other than the period. The degree suggesting effect is executed (see the “About the advantage suggesting effect” column in the modification).

  According to such a configuration, in a period from execution of the execution confirmation suggestion effect to execution of the grant related effect suggested by the execution confirmation suggestion effect, unlike a period other than the period, An advantage suggestion effect that suggests an advantage level of the privilege notified in the grant-related effect is executed. For this reason, the advantage suggestion effect about the privilege which is the target meaningful to be notified in the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed can be executed at a high rate in the period. As a result, the suggestion effect can be executed by effectively utilizing the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  (5) In the slot machine of (2), the privilege grant determining means determines whether or not to grant a privilege and the degree of advantage when the privilege is granted (see FIG. 19).

  According to such a configuration, it is possible to determine not only the benefit level of the privilege but also whether or not to provide the privilege as a premise thereof, and it is possible to improve the fun of granting the privilege.

  (6) In any one of the above slot machines (1), (3), and (4), the feasibility suggesting effect has the same effect as the effect included in the privilege grant possibility suggesting effect. (FIGS. 27 and 29, effects that cause characters A to C to appear at the time of the third stop).

  According to such a configuration, while it is an effect of the same mode, when the execution timing of the effect is a period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed The target of suggestion can be made different from time to time, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  The privilege grant possibility suggesting effect may be the same effect as the feasibility suggesting effect. In this case, the feasibility suggesting effect is executed in a period until the execution confirmation suggesting effect is executed. By suggesting at least the possibility that the grant-related effect will be executed and executing the same effect as the feasibility suggesting effect in the period after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, the privilege grant possibility A suggestion effect may be performed and the possibility that a privilege will be alert | reported by the provision related effect may be suggested.

  (7) In the slot machine of the above (2) or (5), the feasibility suggesting effect includes an effect in the same mode as the effect included in the advantage suggesting effect ([About the advantage suggesting effect in the modification) ] Column).

  According to such a configuration, while it is an effect of the same mode, when the execution timing of the effect is a period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed The target of suggestion can be made different from time to time, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  The advantage suggesting effect may be the same effect as the feasibility suggesting effect, and in this case, by executing the feasibility suggesting effect in a period until the execution confirmation suggesting effect is executed, The advantage suggesting effect is executed by suggesting at least the possibility that the grant-related effect is executed and executing the same effect as the feasibility suggesting effect in the period after the execution confirmation suggesting effect is executed. It may be suggested that the degree of advantage of the privilege notified by the grant-related effect.

  (8) In the slot machine of any one of (1), (3), (4), and (6), the suggestion effect execution means is in a period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed. The execution of the suggestion effect that only suggests the possibility of notifying that the privilege is granted by the grant-related effect is prohibited (when NO in S04 of FIG. 24, the second possibility suggestion effect is not executed).

  According to such a configuration, the feasibility suggestion effect is executed in the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the privilege is given by the grant related effect only after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed. The suggestion effect only suggesting the possibility of being notified is not executed. For this reason, in the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, the suggestion effect about the execution of the grant related effect is not the suggestion effect only suggesting the possibility of giving the benefit by the grant related effect. Can be executed. As a result, the suggestion effect can be executed by effectively using the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  (9) In the slot machine of any one of (2), (5), and (7), the suggestion effect executing means is configured to provide the grant-related information during a period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed. Execution of the suggestion effect that suggests only the advantage level of the privilege notified by the effect is prohibited (see the [About the advantage suggestion effect] column in the modification).

  According to such a configuration, the feasibility suggestion effect is executed in the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and only after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, the privilege notified by the grant-related effect is displayed. The suggestion effect that suggests only the degree of advantage is not executed. For this reason, in the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, the suggestion effect regarding the execution of the grant related effect is executed instead of the suggestion effect suggesting only the advantage degree of the privilege notified by the grant related effect. Can do. As a result, the suggestion effect can be executed by effectively using the period until the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  (10) In any one of the slot machines of the above (1) to (9), the suggestion effect execution unit performs the execution confirmation suggestion until the grant-related effect ends after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed. The production is continued (the definite suggestion production that outputs a specific sound effect from the speakers 53 and 54 is continued at least until the continuous production is completed).

  According to such a configuration, after the execution confirmation suggestion effect is executed, the execution confirmation suggestion effect is continued until the grant-related effect ends. Therefore, the player can be surely recognized that the execution confirmation suggestion effect has been executed.

  “Continue execution confirmation suggestion” may be to continue the production when the execution confirmation suggestion is started, or a part of the production when the execution confirmation suggestion is started. (Only the output of a specific sound effect, etc.) may be continued, or an effect (displaying different types of background images, lamp lighting, etc.) different from the mode at the start of the execution confirmation suggestion effect It may continue.

  (11) In any one of the above slot machines (1) to (10), the suggestion effect execution means executes the execution confirmation suggestion effect based on execution of the feasibility suggestion effect (see FIG. The execution confirmation suggesting effect is executed so that the execution ratio varies depending on the timing at which the feasibility suggesting effect is executed (FIG. 28).

  According to such a configuration, attention can be paid to the execution timing of the feasibility suggestion effect, and the interest of the game can be improved.

(12) In any one of the above-described (1) to (11), the first state (normal mode) and the second state (high) that is more advantageous to the player than the first state State control means for controlling to any one of a plurality of states (lottery mode) including a probability A mode and a high probability B mode;
Special effect execution means for executing a special effect (a fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or a fireworks launch effect with a cut-in) before the determination result of the privilege grant determination means is notified after the start of the grant-related effect. Prepared,
When the determination result that the state control means is not determined to grant the privilege after the special effect is executed in the grant-related effect is notified (special role or AT non-winning), The ratio of controlling to the second state is higher than when a determination result indicating that it has not been determined to grant the privilege without executing the special effect is notified.

  According to such a configuration, even when a determination result indicating that it has not been determined that a privilege is to be granted by a grant-related effect is notified, if a special effect is executed during the grant-related effect, the special effect is executed. The possibility of being controlled to the second state having a higher advantage than the case where the determination result indicating that it has not been determined to grant the privilege is notified is increased. For this reason, a special effect is performed during a grant related effect, and a player's expectation can be raised irrespective of the alerting | reporting result by a grant related effect, and an interest can be improved.

  Note that the second state has information that is more advantageous to the player, such as a higher probability that a specific winning is permitted than the first state, and an operation mode for deriving a display result that is more advantageous to the player. This is a gaming state in which more game value can be expected to be obtained than in the first state, for example, because the probability of controlling to a state in which advantageous information is notified increases.

  Further, the advantage of the state controlled by the state control means means the probability that a pre-determining means is allowed to generate a prize, the probability of determining whether or not the state is controlled to be advantageous to the player, and the player The number of games controlled to an advantageous state, the probability of determining whether or not to grant a right advantageous to the player, the number of rights granted to the player, and the probability of selecting this number of rights from a plurality of different rights The probability of whether or not information advantageous to the player is notified corresponds, and the high degree of advantage means that the probability, the number of games, and the number of rights are preferentially advantageous for the player. It is. These probabilities, the number of games, rights, etc. include the case where one of them is zero.

  Further, the state controlled by the state control means may be a state in which only one game is controlled, or may be a state controlled over a plurality of games. Further, it may be in a state where only information indicating that an advantageous right is granted is set.

  In addition, the state control means determines any state from a plurality of states when executing a grant related effect informing the determination result that the grant related effect executing means has not been determined to grant a privilege, In accordance with the result, the special effect execution means executes the special effect, so that the special effect is executed in the grant-related effect, and the determination result that the privilege is not determined to be given as the notification result by the grant-related effect is determined. When the notification is made, the special effect is not executed in the grant-related effect, and the first result is more than the case where the determination result that the benefit is determined not to be determined as the report result of the grant-related effect is notified. The ratio of controlling to the second state out of the second state and the second state having a higher advantage for the player than the first state may be high, When a determination result indicating that it has not been determined to grant a privilege as a notification result by a grant-related effect is notified, one of a plurality of states is selected depending on whether or not the special effect has been executed in the grant-related effect By determining the state, the special effect is executed in the grant-related effect, and when the determination result that it is not determined that the privilege is given as the notification result by the grant-related effect is notified, the grant-related effect In the first state and the game in the first state, compared to the case where the determination result indicating that the special effect is not executed and the determination result that the privilege is not determined to be granted is notified. The ratio which controls to the said 2nd state among the 2nd states with a high advantage for a person may become high.

The second state includes a 2-1 state (high probability A mode) and a 2-2 state (high probability B mode) which is more advantageous than the 2-1 state.
In the grant-related effect (continuous effect), the first special effect (only one of the fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or the fireworks launch effect with cut-in) is executed among the special effects, and the grant-related effect (continuous effect) ), The decision result (special role or non-winning of AT) that is not decided to be given is notified as the production result, and the 2-1 state (high probability A mode) or the 2-2 Compared to the ratio controlled to the state 2-2 in the state (high probability B mode), the second special effect (fireworks production effect ( (Both cherry blossom pattern) and fireworks display effect with cut-in) are executed, and the determination result (non-special role or non-AT) is determined that the privilege is not given as the effect result of the grant-related effect (continuous effect) (Winning) The proportion of the 2-1 state (high probability A mode) or the 2-2 state (high probability B mode) that is notified and controlled to the 2-2 state is higher. There may be something.

  According to such a configuration, when the determination result indicating that it has not been determined that the privilege is given by the grant-related effect is notified, the first special effect is executed in the case of being controlled to the second state. The possibility that the second special effect is executed is higher than the case where the second special effect is performed, so that it is more likely to be controlled to the state 2-2. It can be further enhanced.

  In addition, when the special effect (fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or fireworks launch effect with cut-in) is executed in the grant-related effect (continuous effect), the special effect is not executed. There is a high rate of notification of a determination result (special role or AT winning) indicating that it is determined that a privilege is to be granted by a grant related effect.

  According to such a configuration, when the special effect is executed before the effect result is notified in the grant-related effect, the special effect is not executed until the effect result is notified in the grant-related effect. In addition, since the rate at which the determination result indicating that it has been determined that a privilege is to be granted as an effect result of the grant-related effect is high, the special game is executed in the grant-related effect, so that an advantageous gaming state is controlled. It is possible to increase the player's expectation for this. On the other hand, when a special effect that can be expected to be controlled in an advantageous gaming state is executed, but a determination result that the effect result of the grant-related effect has not been determined to grant a privilege is notified However, since there is a higher possibility of being controlled to a state of higher advantage than when the determination result that it was not determined to grant a privilege without executing a special effect is performed, the effect result of the grant related effect Regardless, it is possible to effectively enhance the interest associated with the content of the production until the production result is notified.

In addition, as an advantageous gaming state, a first advantageous gaming state (RB, AT less than Navistock 5), a second advantageous gaming state (BB, Navistock 5 or more more advantageous than the first advantageous gaming state) AT)
In the grant-related effect (continuous effect), the special effect (fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or fireworks display effect with cut-in) is not executed, and the grant-related effect is produced as an effect result of the grant-related effect (continuous effect). The determination result (special role or AT winning) is notified that the privilege is granted by the above-mentioned, and the first advantageous gaming state (RB, AT less than Navistock 5) or the second advantageous gaming state ( BB, navigation stock 5 or higher AT) compared to the proportion controlled to the second advantageous gaming state, the special effect (fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or cut-in) in the grant-related effect (continuous effect) A fireworks launch effect with the effect is executed, and a determination result (special role or AT win) is determined as a result of the grant-related effect (continuous effect). ) And the second advantageous gaming state among the first advantageous gaming state (RB, AT less than Navistock 5) or the second advantageous gaming state (BB, AT more than Navistock 5). The controlled percentage is higher.

  According to such a configuration, when the effect result of the grant-related effect is a determination result indicating that it has been determined that the privilege is given, and when it is controlled to the advantageous gaming state, the special effect is executed in the grant-related effect In addition, since the possibility of being controlled to the second advantageous gaming state that is more advantageous than the case where the special effect is not executed increases, it is possible to further enhance the interest by the presence or absence of the special effect during the grant-related effect.

Further, the special effect execution means can execute the special effect (the cherry blossom pattern effect and the cut-in effect) even during the execution of the grant-related effect (continuous effect),
When the special effect (the cherry blossom pattern effect or the cut-in effect) is executed other than during the execution of the grant-related effect (continuous effect), the special effect (cherry blossoms) other than during the execution of the grant-related effect (continuous effect) The percentage of control in the advantageous gaming state (AT, BB, RB) is higher than the case where the pattern effect or cut-in effect) is not executed.

  According to such a configuration, when the special effect is executed, it can be expected that the game state is always controlled to be in an advantageous gaming state regardless of whether or not the giving related effect is being executed.

In addition, the grant-related effect execution means executes an effect (continuous effect) that suggests the possibility of being controlled to the advantageous gaming state over a series of effect periods composed of a plurality of games,
The special effect executing means is a special condition (weak cherry) related to the control of the advantageous gaming state (AT, BB, RB) or the control of the state control means in the game in which the grant-related effect (continuous effect) is being executed. When the strong cherry is selected, the special effect (fireworks production effect (sakura pattern) or fireworks launch effect with cut-in) is executed.

  According to such a configuration, since an event that occurred during the provision-related effect and the content suggested by the special effect are related, it is possible to further enhance the interest associated with the execution of the special effect.

The solenoid drive circuit 46 transmits the solenoid drive signal output from the main control unit 41 to the flow path switching solenoid 30. The LED drive circuit transmits the LED drive signal output from the main control unit 41 to various displays and LEDs connected to the game control board 40. The power interruption detection circuit 48 monitors the power supply voltage supplied to the slot machine 1 and outputs a voltage drop signal indicating that to the main control unit 41 when a voltage drop is detected. The reset circuit 49 provides a system reset signal to the main control unit 41 in a state where the power is unstable, such as when the power is turned on or when the power is turned off. The reset circuit 49 includes a watchdog timer, and provides a user reset signal to the main control unit 41 when the watchdog timer expires, that is, when the operation of the CPU of the main control unit 41 stops for a certain period of time.

  The CPU included in the main control unit 41 executes processing for controlling the progress of the game in the slot machine 1 by executing a program read from the ROM. At this time, a fixed data reading operation in which the CPU reads fixed data from the ROM, a variable data writing operation in which the CPU writes various fluctuation data in the RAM and temporarily stores the data, and various fluctuation data in which the CPU is temporarily stored in the RAM. Data reading operation, receiving operation in which the CPU accepts input of various signals from the outside of the main control unit 41 via an external bus interface, etc., and various types of operation of the CPU to the outside of the main control unit 41 through an external bus interface etc. A transmission operation for outputting a signal is also performed.

  As described above, in the main control unit 41, the CPU executes control in accordance with the program stored in the ROM, so that the main control unit 41 (or CPU) executes (or performs processing) hereinafter. Specifically, the CPU executes control according to a program. The same applies to microcomputers mounted on boards other than the game control board 40.

  The ROM included in the main control unit 41 stores a user program for game control, fixed data, and the like. The ROM stores a security check program. The CPU reads the security check program stored in the ROM when the main control unit 41 shifts to the security mode in response to the power-on of the slot machine 1 or the occurrence of a system reset, and whether or not the stored contents of the ROM have been changed. Execute security check processing to check whether The security check program may be stored in a built-in memory different from the ROM. Further, the security check program may correspond to a security check process for inspecting the storage contents of an external memory externally attached to the main control unit 41 via, for example, an external bus interface.

  The RAM provided in the main control unit 41 provides a work area for game control. Here, at least a part of the RAM may be a backup RAM backed up by a backup power source. That is, even if the power supply to the slot machine is stopped, at least part of the contents of the RAM is stored for a predetermined period. In this embodiment, all areas of the RAM are used as backup RAMs, and all the contents of the RAM are stored for a predetermined period even when the power supply to the slot machine is stopped.

  The ROM included in the main control unit 41 stores various selection data and table data used for controlling the progress of the game, in addition to the game control user program and the security check program. For example, the ROM stores data constituting a plurality of determination tables, determination tables, setting tables and the like prepared for the CPU to perform various determinations, determinations, and settings. Further, the ROM stores table data constituting a plurality of command tables used for the CPU to transmit control signals serving as various control commands from the game control board 40.

  The RAM provided in the main control unit 41 is provided with a game control data holding area 590 as an area for holding various data used for controlling the progress of the game in the slot machine 1. As the RAM, for example, a DRAM is used, and a refresh operation is required to maintain the stored data contents. The CPU has a built-in refresh register for performing this refresh operation. For example, the refresh register has 8 bits, and the lower 7 bits are automatically incremented every time the CPU fetches an instruction from the ROM. Therefore, the stored value in the refresh register is updated every execution time of one instruction in the CPU.

  The main control unit 41 transmits various commands to the sub control unit 91 via the serial communication circuit. A command transmitted from the main control unit 41 to the sub control unit 91 is sent in only one direction, and no command is sent from the sub control unit 91 toward the main control unit 41.

  The main control unit 41 receives the detection state of various switches connected to the game control board 40 from the input port. Then, the main control unit 41 executes basic processing that shifts in stages according to the detection states of various switches input from these input ports.

  Further, the main control unit 41 can execute an interrupt process by interrupting the basic process when an interrupt occurs. In this embodiment, a timer interrupt process (main), which will be described later, is executed at a certain time interval (about 0.56 ms in this embodiment) when a timeout occurs in the timer circuit included in the CTC.

  The main control unit 41 is set to prohibit other interrupts during the execution of the interrupt process, and when a plurality of interrupts occur at the same time, the main control unit 41 prioritizes according to a predetermined order. An interrupt to be executed is set. If another interrupt factor occurs during the execution of the interrupt process and the interrupt factor continues even after the interrupt process is completed, a new interrupt will occur at that point. It will be.

  The main control unit 41 repeatedly loops the process according to the control state until the detection state of the various switches connected to the game control board 40 changes as a basic process, and changes the detection state of the various switches. Execute a process that moves in stages. Further, the main control unit 41 executes a timer interrupt process (main) at regular time intervals (about 0.56 ms in this embodiment). In addition, the execution interval of the timer interrupt process (main) is set to a time longer than the sum of the time required to complete the repeated process according to the control state in the basic process and the execution time of the timer interrupt process (main) Therefore, the process that is repeated according to the control state between the current and next timer interrupt processes (main) is completed at least once.

  An effect switch 56 is connected to the effect control board 90, and a detection signal of the effect switch 56 is input.

  The effect control board 90 is connected to effect devices such as a liquid crystal display 51 (see FIG. 1), an effect LED 52, speakers 53 and 54, and the reel LED 55 described above, which are arranged on the front door 1b of the slot machine 1. These effect devices are driven based on control by a later-described sub-control unit 91 mounted on the effect control board 90.

  In this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 mounted on the effect control board 90 controls the output of the effect devices such as the liquid crystal display 51, effect effect LED 52, speakers 53 and 54, and reel LED 55. However, in addition to the sub-control unit 91, an output control unit that directly controls the output of the effect device is mounted on the effect control board 90 or another board, and the sub-control unit 91 is based on a command from the main control unit 41. An output pattern of the effect device may be determined, and the output control unit may perform output control of the effect device based on the output pattern determined by the sub control unit 91. In such a configuration, the sub control unit 91 and the output control may be performed. The output control of the effect device is performed by both of the parts.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the liquid crystal display 51, the effect effect LED 52, the speakers 53 and 54, and the reel LED 55 are exemplified as the effect device, but the effect device is not limited to these, for example, a mechanically driven display. A device or a mechanically driven item may be applied as the effect device.

  Similar to the main control unit 41, the effect control board 90 includes a sub CPU 91a, a ROM 91b, a RAM 91c, and a microcomputer including an I / O port 91d. The sub control unit 91 controls the effect, and the effect control board 90. A display control circuit 92 for performing display control of the liquid crystal display 51 connected to the LED, an effect driving LED 52, an LED driving circuit 93 for controlling driving of the reel LED 55, an audio output circuit 94 for controlling audio output from the speakers 53, 54, When the power is turned on or when an initialization command from the sub CPU 91a is not input for a certain period of time, a reset circuit 95 that gives a reset signal to the sub CPU 91a and a detection signal input from the effect switch 56 connected to the effect control board 90 are detected. Switch detection circuit 96, time information including date information and time information The clock device 97 to output, the power supply voltage supplied to the slot machine 1 is monitored, and when a voltage drop is detected, a power failure detection circuit 98 that outputs a voltage drop signal to that effect to the sub CPU 91a, other In response to a command transmitted from the game control board 40, the sub CPU 91a performs various controls for performing an effect, and each part of the control circuit mounted on the effect control board 90. Control directly or indirectly.

  The reset circuit 95 has a lower voltage for releasing the reset signal than the reset circuit 49 that gives the system reset signal to the main control unit 41 in the game control board 40. When the power is turned on, the sub control unit 91 It starts at an earlier stage than the unit 41. On the other hand, the power interruption detection circuit 98 has a voltage that outputs a voltage drop signal lower than the power interruption detection circuit 48 that outputs a voltage drop signal to the main control unit 41 in the game control board 40. The sub-control unit 91 detects a power failure at a later stage than the main control unit 41, and performs a power interruption process (sub) described later.

  Similar to the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 has an interrupt function, generates an interrupt when receiving a command from the main control unit 41, and acquires a command transmitted from the main control unit 41. Execute command reception interrupt processing to be stored in the buffer. Further, the sub control unit 91 executes an interrupt process (sub), which will be described later, by generating an interrupt every time the number of input system clocks reaches a certain number, that is, every certain interval.

  Also, unlike the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 interrupts the process even when the timer interrupt process (sub) is being executed when an interrupt is generated based on the reception of the command. The command reception interrupt process is executed at the same time, and the command reception interrupt process is executed with the highest priority even if interrupts that trigger the timer interrupt process (sub) occur at the same time.

  The sub-control unit 91 is also supplied with backup power at the time of a power failure, and the data stored in the RAM 91c is held while the backup power is supplied.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the medal payout rate changes according to the set value. Specifically, the medal payout rate is changed by using a winning probability corresponding to a set value in an internal lottery described later. The set value is composed of 6 levels of 1 to 6, with 6 being the highest payout rate and the payout rate being lower as the value is decreased in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. That is, when 6 is set as the set value, the advantage is highest for the player, and as the value decreases in order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the advantage decreases stepwise.

  In order to change the setting value, it is necessary to turn on the power of the slot machine 1 after the setting key switch 37 is turned on. When the setting key switch 37 is turned on and the power is turned on, the setting value read from the RAM is displayed on the setting value display 24 as a display value, and the setting value can be changed by operating the reset / setting switch 38. Transition to the setting change state. When the reset / setting switch 38 is operated in the setting change state, the display value displayed on the setting value display 24 is updated one by one (when further operation is performed from the setting 6, the display returns to the setting 1). . When the start switch 7 is operated, the display value is determined as the set value. When the setting key switch 37 is turned off, the determined display value (setting value) is stored in the RAM of the main control unit 41, and the state shifts to a state in which the game can proceed.

  In order to check the set value, after the game is over, the setting key switch 37 may be turned on in a state where the bet amount is not set. When the setting key switch 37 is turned on in such a situation, the setting value read out from the RAM is displayed on the setting value display 24, thereby shifting to a setting confirmation state in which the setting value can be confirmed. In the setting confirmation state, the game cannot be progressed, and by setting the setting key switch 37 to the off state, the setting confirmation state is ended and the state in which the game can proceed is returned.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the voltage drop signal from the power interruption detection circuit 48 is detected every time the timer interruption process (main) is executed. When the determination process is performed and it is determined that the voltage drop signal is detected in the power failure determination process, the power interruption process (main) is executed. In the power interruption process (main), the register is saved in a RAM stack, which will be described later, and data for destructive diagnosis (in this embodiment, 5 AH) in which any bit becomes 1, that is, specific data other than 0 is stored. In addition to storing, the RAM parity adjustment data is calculated so that the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM becomes 0, and stored in the RAM. The RAM parity is a value calculated as an exclusive OR of values stored in each bit of a corresponding area of the RAM (all areas in this embodiment). For this reason, if the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM is 0, the RAM parity adjustment data is 0, and the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM is 1. In this case, the RAM parity adjustment data is 1.

  The main control unit 41 calculates the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM at the time of activation, regardless of whether the system reset or the user reset, and the value of the data for destructive diagnosis The processing state of the main control unit 41 is restored to the state before the power interruption based on the data stored in the RAM on the condition that the RAM parity is 0 and the value of the destructive diagnosis data is also correct. However, if the RAM parity is not 0 (in the case of 1) or the value of the destruction diagnosis data is not correct, it is determined that the RAM is abnormal, and the RAM abnormal error code is set in the register to control the RAM abnormal error state. However, the progress of the game is disabled. Unlike the normal error state, the RAM abnormal error state is not canceled even if the reset switch 23 or the reset / setting switch 38 is operated, and a new set value is set in the above-described setting change state. It will not be released until

  In this embodiment, all data stored in the RAM is held by the backup power source even in the event of a power failure, and the main control unit 41 determines that the RAM data is normal when the power is turned on. In addition, it is configured to return to the control state before the power interruption based on the stored data in the RAM, but only the data necessary for returning to the control state in the event of a power failure is backed up and turned on. It may be configured to return to the control state before power interruption based on the data backed up at the time.

  In addition, when returning to the control state before the power interruption when the power is turned on, it is not necessary to return all the control states to the control state before the power interruption, and the minimum control state that does not disadvantage the player For example, it is not necessary to restore the state of all input ports to the state before power interruption.

  Next, initialization of the RAM of the main control unit 41 will be described. The RAM storage area of the main control unit 41 is divided into important work, non-saved work, general work, special work, unused area, and stack area.

  Important work items include various indicators, LED display data, I / O input / output data, game time counters, and other data that can be inconvenient to initialize, as well as the RT flag and RT remaining game count described below. Work to be done. The non-saved work is a work that holds the state of various switches, and a value is always set regardless of whether or not the data in the RAM is destroyed at the time of activation. The general work is a work that stores data that can be initialized at the end of the BB, such as a stop control table, a stop symbol, the number of medals paid out, the total number of medals paid out in the BB, and a game state flag described later. The special work is a work that stores data such as various software random numbers that are initialized only before the setting is started. The unused area is an unused area in the RAM storage area, and is initialized if any one of a plurality of initialization conditions described later is satisfied. The stack area is an area in which data saved from the register of the main control unit 41 is stored, and the unused stack area is one of a plurality of initialization conditions to be described later, like the unused area. However, if it is established, it will be initialized, but the in-use stack area is not initialized because the program continues.

  In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 stores the RAM data when the setting key switch 37 is turned on, when a RAM error occurs, when the BB ends, and when the setting key switch 37 is turned off. When the game is not destroyed, when four initialization conditions at the end of one game are satisfied, four types of initialization that are initialized in different areas are performed according to each initialization condition.

  Initialization 1 is initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is on at the time of start-up and transitions to the setting change state, or initialization performed when a RAM abnormality error occurs. In the RAM storage area, all areas (including unused areas and unused stack areas) except for important work and in-use stack areas, that is, areas from unsaved work to unused stack areas are initialized. The Initialization 2 is initialization performed at the end of the BB. In initialization 2, the RAM area includes general work, unused area, and unused stack area, that is, areas from the general work to the unused stack area. It is initialized. Initialization 3 is an initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is in an off state at the time of startup and the data in the RAM is not destroyed. The used stack area is initialized. Initialization 4 is initialization performed at the end of one game. In initialization 4, an unused area and an unused stack area are initialized in the RAM storage area.

  In this embodiment, the initialization 1 is performed before the setting change state is transferred. However, the initialization 1 is performed at the end of the setting change state, or both before the setting change state and at the end of the setting change state. Also good.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when a RAM abnormality error occurs at the time of power-on or the like, initialization 1 is executed, and the control state before that is initialized. The RT flag and the RT remaining game number assigned to are held without being initialized. On the other hand, the gaming state flag assigned to the general work is initialized as initialization 1 is executed.

  In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, as described above, the prescribed number of bets that can be set according to the gaming state (usually inside, BB (RB)) is determined, and is determined according to the gaming state. The game can be started on the condition that the specified number of bets has been set. In the present embodiment, the winning line LN is activated when a specified number of bets according to the gaming state are set.

  In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, when all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped, the activated pay line (in the present embodiment, all the pay lines are always enabled. The activated winning line is simply referred to as a winning line), and a winning combination is obtained when a combination of symbols called “comb” is arranged. The combination may be a combination of the same symbols or a combination including different symbols. The type of winning combination is determined according to the game state, but it can be roughly divided into a small role with payout of medals and a replay that can start the next game without the need to set the number of bets. There are a game combination and a special combination with a transition to a game state advantageous to the player. Below, a small role and a re-playing role are collectively called a general role. In order to win each winning combination determined according to the gaming state, it is necessary to win an internal lottery to be described later and set a winning flag for the winning combination in the RAM.

  Of the winning flags for each of these combinations, the winning flag for the small role and the re-playing role is valid only in the game in which the flag is set, and is invalid in the next game. It is valid until the combination of combinations permitted by the flag is complete, and is invalid in a game having the combination of combinations permitted. In other words, once the winning flag for a special role is won, even if the combination of characters allowed by the flag cannot be aligned, the winning flag is not invalidated and is carried over to the next game. It becomes.

  Hereinafter, the internal lottery of the present embodiment will be described. In the internal lottery, it is determined whether or not the above winning combination is permitted before the display results of all the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are derived and displayed (actually, when the start switch 7 is detected). To do. In the internal lottery, first, a random value for internal lottery (an integer from 0 to 65535) is acquired when the start switch 7 is detected. Specifically, the value of the random number storage work assigned to the RAM is set as the lottery work assigned to the RAM. Then, for each combination determined according to the gaming state and whether or not the special combination is carried over, the numerical data stored in the lottery work, the value of the gaming state flag for specifying the gaming state, and the RT described later are specified. This is performed according to the number of determination values of each combination determined according to the value of the RT flag, the bet number and the set value.

  The random value storage work is a storage area in which numerical data latched simultaneously with the operation of the start switch 7 is stored. Every time new numerical data is latched, the latched numerical data is processed by a timer interruption process thereafter. The numerical data read in (main) and stored in the random value storage work is updated to the latest numerical data latched newly.

  In the internal lottery, an internal lottery target, a current gaming state flag value, an RT flag value, and the number of determination values determined corresponding to the set value are stored in a random number for internal lottery (a lottery work). When the result of addition overflows, it is determined that the winning combination is won. For this reason, a winning combination will be won with a probability (number of determination values / 65536) according to the number of determination values.

  If a winning combination of any combination is determined, a winning flag corresponding to the combination determined to be winning is set in the internal winning flag storing work assigned to the RAM. The internal winning flag storage work consists of a 2-byte storage area, of which the upper byte is assigned as the special role storing work in which the winning flag for the special role is set, and the lower byte is the winning of the general role It is assigned as a general role storage work for which a flag is set. Specifically, when a special combination is won, a special combination winning flag indicating that the special combination is won is set in the special combination storing work, and the winning flag set in the general combination storing work is cleared. When a general combination is won, a winning flag for the general combination indicating that the general combination is won is set in the general combination storing work. If no winning combination is selected, only the general winning combination work is cleared.

Next, stop control of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R will be described.
The main control unit 41 refers to the table index and the table creation data stored in the ROM when the reel starts rotating and when the reel stops and the reel that is still rotating still remains. A stop control table is created for each reel that is rotating. When any of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R corresponding to the rotating reel is effectively detected, the stop control table of the corresponding reel is referred to and the slip of the referred stop control table is referred to. Based on the number of frames, control is performed to stop the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R corresponding to the operated stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R.

  In the table index, an index that indicates the start address of the area in which the data for table creation is stored, from the reference address when referring to the table index, according to the setting state of the winning flag by internal lottery (hereinafter referred to as internal winning state) Differences up to the address where the data is stored are registered. As a result, a difference corresponding to the internal winning state is acquired, and the corresponding index data can be acquired by adding the difference to the reference address. Even when the winning combinations are different, when the same control is applied, the same address is stored as the index data. In such a case, the same table creation data is referred to. Thus, a stop control table is created.

  The table creation data includes a stop control table indicating the number of sliding frames according to the stop operation position, and an address of the stop control table to be referred to according to the reel stop status.

  The stop control table referred to according to the reel stop status is whether all reels are rotating, only the left reel is stopped, only the middle reel is stopped, only the right reel is stopped, It may vary depending on whether the middle reel is stopped, the left and right reels are stopped, the middle and right reels are stopped, and if any reel is stopped, stop Since there may be differences depending on the stop position of the reels already completed, the address of the stop control table to be referenced for each situation is registered for each rotating reel, and based on the top address of the table creation data, It is possible to specify the address of the stop control table that should be referred to according to the status of each, and it is necessary according to each status from this specified address. And to be able to identify the stop control table. Even when the reel stop status and the stopped position of the stopped reel are different, when the same stop control table is applied, the same address may be registered as the address of the stop control table. In such a case, the same stop control table is referred to.

  The stop control table is data that can specify the number of sliding frames by timing at which the stop operation is performed. In the present embodiment, stepping motors that make one turn at a cycle of 336 steps (0 to 167) are used for the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R. That is, when the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R are driven for 168 steps, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R make one round. Then, 21 areas (frames) divided every 16 steps (the number of steps that one symbol moves) are defined for one reel, and these areas are areas 0 to 20 from the reel reference position. A number is assigned. On the other hand, the number of symbols arranged on one reel is 21, and symbol numbers 0 to 20 from the reel reference position are assigned to symbols on each reel, so symbols 0 to 20 are assigned to each reel. , Area numbers 0 to 20 are assigned in order. In the stop control table, the number of sliding symbols for each area number is compressed and stored according to a predetermined rule, and the number of sliding symbols for each area number can be acquired by expanding the stop control table. Yes.

  As described above, the stop control table created by referring to the table index and the table creation data corresponds to the area number, and the area corresponding to each area number is the stop reference position (in this embodiment, the perspective window 3). Sliding frame when an operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is detected at a timing (a timing in which the number of steps from the reel reference position is included in the range of the number of steps of each region number). It is a table with each number set.

  Next, the procedure for creating the stop control table will be described. First, at the start of reel rotation, the top address of the table creation data corresponding to the internal winning state of the game is acquired. Specifically, the table index is first referred to, index data corresponding to the internal winning state is obtained, table creation data is identified based on the obtained index data, and all reels are identified from the identified table creation data. The address of the stop control table for each reel corresponding to the state of rotation is acquired, and the stop control table for each reel stored at the acquired address is expanded to generate a stop control table for all reels.

  Further, when any one reel stops or any two reels stop, the index data acquired at the start of reel rotation, that is, the top address of the table creation data corresponding to the internal winning state of the game The table creation data is identified based on the table creation data, and the stop control table address of the unreacted reel corresponding to the stopped reel and the area number of the stop position of the reel is obtained from the identified table creation data. The stop control table for each stored reel is expanded to create a stop control table for the unstopped reels.

  Next, when the main control unit 41 effectively detects any one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R corresponding to the rotating reel, the control when the display result is derived to the corresponding reel is described. To explain, when any operation corresponding to the rotating reel is detected effectively among the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, the stop operation position is based on the number of steps from the reel reference position when the stop operation is detected. The number of sliding symbols corresponding to the area number of the specified stop operation position is acquired by referring to the stop control table of the reel where the stop operation is detected. Then, control is performed to rotate and stop the reel by the number of acquired sliding frames. Specifically, from the number of steps from the reel reference position at the time when the stop operation is detected, the number of steps from the acquired number of sliding frames to the stop is calculated, and the reel is rotated and stopped by the calculated number of steps. Take control. As a result, the area corresponding to the area number that is the stop position ahead of the number of sliding frames from the area corresponding to the area number of the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected is the stop reference position (in this embodiment, the perspective window 3 It will stop in the lower symbol area).

  In the table index of this embodiment, only one address is stored as index data corresponding to one internal winning state in one gaming state, and further, one table creation data includes one reel. Only one address is stored as the address of the storage area of the stop control table corresponding to the stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel). In other words, table creation data corresponding to one internal winning state in one gaming state and stop control tables corresponding to reel stop states (and stopped positions of stopped reels) are uniquely determined. The stop control table created with reference to is unique for one internal winning state in one gaming state and the reel stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel). Therefore, when all of the gaming state, the internal winning state, and the reel stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel) are the same, the reel is based on the same stop control table, that is, the same control pattern. The stop control is performed.

  Further, in this embodiment, a value of 0 to 4 is determined as the number of sliding frames, and the reel can be stopped by drawing a maximum of 4 symbols after detecting the stop operation. In other words, the stop position of the symbol can be designated from a range of a maximum of 5 frames including the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected. In addition, since it is necessary to move one frame to move the reel for one symbol, it is possible to stop the reel by pulling in a maximum of four symbols after detecting the stop operation. The symbol stop position can be designated from a range of up to five symbols including the operation position.

  In this embodiment, when any of the winning combinations is won, the winning combination is drawn to the maximum in the range of 4 frames on the winning line, and the non-winning winning combination is drawn so that it is not aligned on the winning line. A stop control table with a defined number of frames is created and reel stop control is performed. If no winning combination is selected, a stop control table with a determined number of sliding symbols that do not have any combination And stop control of the reel. As a result, when a stop operation is performed, if the winning combination can be stopped on the winning line within the drawing range of a maximum of 4 frames, the control is performed so that the winning combination is stopped. If the winning combination is not drawn, it will be controlled so that it can be stopped in a drawing range of up to 4 frames.

  When a special role and a small role are elected at the same time, such as when a special role is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, the winning small role is the maximum in the range of 4 frames on the winning line. The number of sliding frames is fixed so that it can be drawn to the limit, and for the stop operation position where the selected small role cannot be drawn in the range of up to 4 frames in the winning line, the winning special role is in the range of 4 frames in the winning line A stop control table in which the number of sliding frames is determined so as to be pulled in as much as possible is created, and the reel stop control is performed. As a result, when a stop operation is performed, if it is possible to stop all the small roles that have been selected in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the winning line and stop them, the control is performed so that the winning combination is stopped. If you can't draw a small role that has been won in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the line, if you can stop with a special role that has been won in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the winning line, Control is performed to align and stop them, and a winning combination that has not been won will be controlled to be stopped within the 4-frame pull-in range. That is, in such a case, priority is given to the control for aligning the small combination on the winning line over the special combination, and the special combination can be won only when the small combination cannot be drawn. When a special combination and a small combination can be withdrawn at the same time, only the small combination is drawn in, and the small combination is not aligned on the winning line at the same time as the special combination.

  In this example, when a special role is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, or when a special role and a small role are simultaneously elected, the special role and the small role are won simultaneously. If the selected special role is given priority over the selected special role, and only when the small role cannot be withdrawn, the special role is controlled on the winning line. When winning simultaneously, priority is given to the control for aligning the special combination on the winning line over the small combination, and the control for aligning the small combination on the winning line may be performed only when the special combination cannot be drawn.

  If a special player and a replaying player are elected at the same time, such as when a replaying player is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, the winning line will be displayed when the stop operation is performed. In addition, the control is performed so that the symbols of the re-gamer are aligned and stopped within a maximum of 4 frames. In this case, the symbols constituting the re-gamer or the symbols constituting the re-gamer to be simultaneously elected are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, that is, within 4 frames, for any of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R. Since it can always be stopped at any position within the 4-frame pull-in range, if the special combination and the re-playing combination are elected at the same time, the timing of the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R by the player Without fail, the re-playing role will always be won. That is, in such a case, the control for aligning the re-games on the winning line has priority over the special game, and the re-games will always win. In the case where the special combination and the re-playing combination can be withdrawn at the same time, only the re-playing combination is drawn in, and the special combination is not arranged on the winning line at the same time as the re-playing combination.

  In this embodiment, after the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started, the main control unit 41 rotates the reels for which the stop operation has not been detected yet until the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected. Continuing, on the condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is detected, control is performed to stop the display result on the corresponding reel. Even if the reel rotation temporarily stops due to the occurrence of a reel rotation error, the stop operation is still detected until the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected after the reel rotation is restarted. Control is performed to stop the display result of the corresponding reels on the condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected by continuing the rotation of the reels that have not been operated.

  In this embodiment, the control is performed to stop the display result on the corresponding reel on condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is detected. However, the rotation of the reel is started. When a predetermined automatic stop time has elapsed, even if the reel stop operation is not performed, it is assumed that the stop operation has been performed, and automatic stop control is performed to automatically stop each reel. May be. In this case, since the reels are stopped without the player's operation, it is preferable to derive a display result that does not constitute any combination even if any combination is won.

  Next, commands that the main control unit 41 transmits to the sub control unit 91 will be described.

  In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 sends a BET command, a credit command, an internal winning command, a freeze command, a reel rotation start command, a reel stop command, a winning determination command, a payout start command, a payout end to the sub control unit 91. A plurality of types of commands including commands, gaming state commands, standby commands, stop commands, error commands, return commands, setting commands, setting confirmation commands, door commands, and operation detection commands are transmitted.

  These commands consist of 1-byte type data indicating the command type and 1-byte extension data indicating the command content, and the sub-control unit 91 can determine the command type from the type data.

  The BET command is a command that can specify the number of inserted medals, that is, the number of medals used to set the bet number, and is a state from the end of the game (after setting change) to the start of the game. Sent when a medal is inserted or the MAXBET switch 6 is operated to set the number of bets in a state where is not set. Further, since the BET command is transmitted when the betting number setting operation is performed, it is possible to specify that the betting number setting operation has been performed by receiving the BET command.

  The credit command is a command that can specify the number of medals stored as credits, and is a state from the end of the game (after setting change) to the start of the game, and in a state where a predetermined number of bets is set, Sent when a medal is inserted and credits are added.

  The internal winning command is a command that can specify the winning status of the internal winning flag and the type of the internal winning flag that has been established, and is transmitted when the start switch 7 is operated to start the game. Further, since the internal winning command is transmitted when the start switch 7 is operated, it is possible to specify that the start switch 7 has been operated by receiving the internal winning command.

  The freeze command is a command indicating whether or not to control the freeze state when it is determined to control to the freeze state, which will be described later, and the timing in the case of controlling to the freeze state. Sometimes sent.

  The reel rotation start command is a command for notifying the start of reel rotation, and is transmitted when rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started.

  The reel stop command is a command that can specify whether the reel to be stopped is the left reel, the middle reel, or the right reel, the area number of the corresponding reel stop operation position, and the area number of the corresponding reel stop position. And is transmitted every time stop control is performed in accordance with the stop operation of each reel. Since the reel stop command is transmitted when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated, it is possible to specify that the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated by receiving the reel stop command. .

  The winning determination command is a command that can specify the combination of symbols arranged on the winning line LN, whether or not a winning is received, the type of winning, and the number of medals to be paid out at the winning. The winning determination is performed with all reels stopped. Sent after.

  The payout start command is a command for notifying the start of payout of medals, and is transmitted when the payout of medals is started by paying out a prize or credit (including medals used for setting the number of bets). The payout end command is a command for notifying the end of payout of medals, and is transmitted when the payout of medals by winning and winning a credit is completed.

  The gaming state command is a command that can specify the gaming state of the next game, the type of RT, and the number of remaining RT games, and is transmitted when the game ends.

  The standby command is a command indicating a transition to the standby state, and after one game is over, a credit (which was used for setting the bet number) is set when the transition to the standby state is made after a predetermined time without setting the bet number. (Including medals) is sent out after the medal payout is completed and the payout end command is sent.

  The stop command is a command indicating the occurrence or release of the stop state, and after the end of the BB, the stop command indicating the occurrence of the stop state is transmitted when the ending effect waiting time has elapsed, and the reset operation is performed. When the stop state is released, a stop command indicating the release of the stop state is transmitted.

  An error command is a command that indicates the occurrence or cancellation of an error condition and the type of error condition. When an error is determined and controlled to an error condition, an error command indicating the occurrence and type of the error condition is sent and reset. When the error state is canceled after the operation is performed, an error command indicating the cancellation of the error state is transmitted.

  The return command is a command indicating that the main control unit 41 has returned to the control state before the power interruption, and is transmitted when the main control unit 41 returns to the control state before the power interruption.

  The setting command is a command indicating the start or end of the setting change state and the setting value after the setting change. At the time of transition to the setting change state, a setting command indicating the start of the setting change state is transmitted, and when the setting change state ends. A setting command indicating the end of the setting change state and the setting value after the setting change is transmitted. Further, since the control state of the main control unit 41 is initialized with the transition to the setting change state, it can be specified that the control state of the main control unit 41 has been initialized by the setting command indicating the start of setting. .

  The setting confirmation command is a command that indicates the start or end of the setting confirmation state. A setting confirmation command that indicates the start of setting confirmation is transmitted when entering the setting confirmation state, and the setting confirmation end is indicated when the setting confirmation state ends. A confirmation command is sent.

  The door command is a command indicating the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25, that is, on (open state) / off (closed state), when the power is turned on, at the end of one game (after the game is over, the bet number of the next game) Sent before the setting of ”can be started), and when the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25 changes (from on to off, from off to on).

  The operation detection command is a switch in which the detection state (on / off) has changed among the operation switches (MAXBET switch 6, start switch 7, stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R), whether the detection state has changed from off to on, This command indicates whether the state has changed from on to off and the detection state (on / off) of another switch, and is transmitted when the detection state of any of these operation switches has changed.

  Of these commands, commands other than the door command and the operation detection command are generated in the basic process, and the command data in the command buffer assigned to the non-initialized area is updated to the newly generated command data, and the serial communication circuit Is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91.

  On the other hand, the door command is generated in the door monitoring process of the timer interrupt process (main) and stored in the door command storage area. The door command storage area stores a door command indicating the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25 at the time of power-on or at the end of one game, and when the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25 changes, A door command indicating the detection state is stored. Further, the door command stored in the door command storage area is not cleared even after the door command is transmitted, and is then overwritten by a newly stored door command. When the power is turned on or one game is finished, a door command transmission request 1 for requesting transmission of a door command stored in the door command storage area is set, and whether the door command transmission request 1 is set or whether the door is open is detected. When the detection state of the switch 25 changes, the door command transmission request 2 is set. When the door command transmission request 2 is set, the door command stored in the door command storage area is set. In the command transmission process of the timer interrupt process (main) executed after transmission is commanded, it is stored in the command buffer and transferred to the serial communication circuit to be transmitted to the sub-control unit 91.

  The operation detection command is used when a change in the detection state of any switch is detected in the switch input determination process of the timer interrupt process (main) (when edge data of any switch is set). Is generated and stored in the operation detection command storage area, and when an operation detection command transmission request is set, transmission of the operation detection command stored in the operation detection command storage area is instructed, and a timer allocation executed thereafter In the command transmission process of the loading process (main), the data is stored in the command buffer and transferred to the serial communication circuit to be transmitted to the sub-control unit 91.

  As described above, both the door command and the operation detection command are stored in the command buffer in the command setting process of the timer interrupt process (main), and transmitted to the sub-control unit 91 by being transferred to the serial communication circuit. However, when the door command transmission request 2 is set, that is, when the door command transmission is requested, the door command transmission is given priority even if the operation detection command transmission is requested. Since the operation detection command is transmitted only when the door command transmission request 2 is not set, when both the door command transmission request 2 and the operation detection command transmission request are set, In the command transmission process, the door command is transmitted, and the operation detection command is transmitted in the next command transmission process. The be trust.

  Next, the control of the effect performed by the sub-control unit 91 based on the command transmitted from the main control unit 41 to the effect control board 90 will be described.

  When the sub control unit 91 receives a command from the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 executes a command reception interrupt process. In the command reception interrupt process, the command acquired from the command transmission line is stored in the reception buffer provided in the RAM 91c.

  The reception buffer is provided with an area capable of storing a maximum of 16 commands so that a plurality of commands can be accumulated.

  In the timer interrupt process (sub), the sub-control unit 91 determines whether or not an unprocessed command is stored in the reception buffer. If an unprocessed command is stored, the sub-control unit 91 is the earliest. The control pattern table stored in the ROM 91b is referred to based on the command received in the stage, and the liquid crystal display 51, effect effect LED 52, speakers 53, 54, reel LED 55, etc. are controlled based on the control contents registered in the control pattern table. Output control of various production devices is performed.

  In the control pattern table, the display pattern of the liquid crystal display 51 corresponding to the type of command, the lighting mode of the lighting effect LED 52, the output mode of the speakers 53 and 54, the lighting mode of the reel LED, etc. Control patterns of these effect devices are registered, and when the sub-control unit 91 receives a command, the sub-control unit 91 stores the control patterns registered corresponding to the effect patterns set in the RAM 91c in the game of the control pattern table. Among these, the control pattern corresponding to the type of the received command is referred to, and the output control of the rendering device is performed based on the control pattern. Thereby, the production according to the production pattern and the progress of the game is executed.

  If the sub-control unit 91 receives a new command during execution of an effect triggered by the reception of a certain command, the sub-control unit 91 stops the effect based on the control pattern being executed, and changes to the newly received command. An effect based on the corresponding control pattern is executed. In other words, even if the production is not finished to the end, when a new command is received, the production that was being executed is canceled and a new command is received unless the received new command is not a command that triggers a new production. An effect based on the command is executed.

  In particular, in this embodiment, when the betting number setting operation is performed during the execution of the effect, that is, when the sub-control unit 91 receives a BET command indicating that the bet number has been set, Is to be canceled. For this reason, if the player wants to proceed to the next game rather than seeing the production to the end, the production is canceled and the next game can be started. There is no. Further, when a credit or betting amount adjustment operation is performed during the performance, that is, after the sub-control unit 91 receives a game state command indicating the end of the game, it receives an internal winning command indicating the start of the game. When the payout start command is received before, the effect being executed is stopped. Credits and bets are settled when the game is finished. In such a case, the production is continued unnecessarily even though there is an intention to finish the game by ending the performance being executed. It is designed not to be overwhelmed.

  When the internal winning command is received, the effect pattern is selected at a selection rate corresponding to the result of the internal lottery indicated by the internal winning command, and is set in the RAM 91c. The selection rate of the effect pattern is registered in the effect table stored in the ROM 91b, and when the sub control unit 91 receives the internal winning command, the sub control unit 91 stores the effect pattern in the effect table according to the result of the internal lottery indicated by the internal winning command. With reference to the registered selection rate, one of the effect patterns is selected from a plurality of types of effect patterns according to the selection rate, and the selected effect pattern is set in the RAM 91c as the effect pattern of the game. Even if the same command is received, a different control pattern is selected depending on the effect pattern selected when the internal winning command is received. As a result, different effects may be performed depending on the effect pattern.

  In the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, a winning is awarded when the winning symbols are aligned on any winning line.

As a result, it is configured not to be controlled from normal / RT1, normal / RT4 to normal / RT2, and a special replay is awarded only in normal / RT0, normal / RT3, and from normal / RT0 / normal / RT3. Only normal and RT2 are controlled. When the special replay is won in the normal RT2, the normal RT2 is maintained.

  The SP replay includes “Replay-Orange-Black 7”, “Replay-Orange-Net 7”, “Replay-Orange-White 7”, “Replay-Orange-Plum”, “Replay-BAR-Black 7” on the winning line LN. ”,“ Replay-BAR-Net 7 ”,“ Replay-BAR-White 7 ”,“ Replay-BAR-Plum ”,“ Plum-Orange-Black 7 ”,“ Plum-Orange-Net 7 ”,“ Plum-Orange ” -White 7 "," Plum-Orange-Plum "," Plum-BAR-Black 7 "," Plum-BAR-Net 7 "," Plum-BAR-White 7 "," Plum-BAR-Plum " The winning combination will be awarded when the combination is complete.

  Here, referring to FIG. 3, the replay and plum of the left reel 2L are arranged at a position one above the orange and BAR, and the black 7, net 7, white 7 and plum of the right reel 2R are orange. , Because it is located one position below the BAR, "Orange-Orange-Orange", "Orange-Orange-BAR", "Orange-BAR-BAR", "BAR-Orange-Orange", "BAR-Orange" The combination of “−BAR” and “BAR-BAR-BAR” rises to the right, that is, aligns with the invalid line LM4.

  In the left reel 2L, replay and plum are arranged within 5 frames, in the middle reel orange and BAR are arranged in 5 frames, and in the right reel 2R, black 7, net 7, white 7, The plum is arranged within 5 frames. For this reason, it can be said that, in principle, when SP replay is won in an internal lottery to be described later, it can be said that the winning can be made regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R.

  As shown in FIG. 9, after winning the SP replay in normal / RT2, control is performed in normal / RT3. As will be described later, the SP replay is set not to win independently in the internal lottery in the normal / RT0, normal / RT1, and normal / RT4. Further, when the special combination and SP replay are won at the same time in the internal lottery in the normal / RT0, normal / RT1, and normal / RT4, the internal one / RT0 or the internal two / RT0 is controlled at that time. Therefore, the SP replay is not won in the normal / RT0, normal / RT1, and normal / RT4. As a result, normal / RT0, normal / RT1, and normal / RT4 are not controlled to normal / RT3, and SP replay is awarded only when normal / RT2 and normal / RT3 only from normal / RT2. It is comprised so that it may be controlled. If the special replay is won in the normal RT3, the normal RT3 is maintained.

  Next, the transition outcome will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, the transition items are “replay-orange-bell”, “replay-BAR-bell”, “plum-orange-bell”, “plum-BAR-bell”, “replay-bell-orange”. ”,“ Replay-Bell-BAR ”,“ Plum-Bell-Orange ”,“ Plum-Bell-BAR ”,“ Black 7-Orange-Orange ”,“ Black 7-Orange-BAR ”,“ Black 7-BAR- ” "Orange", "Black 7-BAR-BAR", "White 7-Orange-Orange", "White 7-Orange-BAR", "White 7-BAR-Orange", "White 7-BAR-BAR", "Watermelon -Orange-orange "," Watermelon-orange-BAR "," Watermelon-BAR-orange "," Watermelon-BAR-BAR ". In this embodiment, left bells 1 to 4, middle bells 1 to 4 and right bells 1 to 4 which will be described later are elected, and the upper bells which are elected as the first stop other than the reels which become the winning conditions for the middle bells are elected. When the game is missed, the above-mentioned transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 9, normal / RT1 is controlled after the transition points are aligned with the winning line LN in normal / RT0, normal / RT2, normal / RT3, and normal / RT4. Note that, when the transition outcomes are aligned with the winning line LN in the normal / RT1, the normal / RT1 is maintained.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 11 to 15, combinations of lottery object combinations that are read as lottery object combinations for each gaming state will be described. In this embodiment, the gaming state is the normal gaming state, the inside one (BB1, BB3, RB2 is elected) or the inside 2 (BB2, BB4, RB1 is won) State), BB (RB), or RB, and the winning combination and the winning probability for the internal lottery are different. Furthermore, if the gaming state is the normal gaming state, at least one of the re-game player and the winning probability to be subject to the internal lottery differs depending on the types of RT0 to RT4. As will be described later as a lottery target combination, a plurality of winning combinations can be read out simultaneously and can be won in duplicate. In FIG. 11 to FIG. 15, by indicating “+” between winning combinations, it is shown that they are simultaneously read out as a lottery target combination in the internal lottery.

  In FIGS. 11 to 15, the lottery target combination is shown in the vertical column, and the gaming state is shown in the horizontal column. In the column where the gaming state intersects with the lottery target, a circle indicates that the lottery target is read out in the gaming state, and a cross indicates the lottery target when in the gaming state. This indicates that the combination is not read out.

  Further, the numerical value shown below the circle indicates the number of determination values of a predetermined set value (for example, set value 1). An internal lottery is performed using the number of determination values. The denominator of the number of determination values is set to “65536” corresponding to a random number for internal lottery (an integer from 0 to 65535). For this reason, for example, the winning probability of the lottery subject for which “300” is set as the number of determination values is 300/65536.

  11 and 12 show combinations of special combinations that are read as lottery targets for each gaming state, FIG. 13 shows combinations of small roles that are read as lottery targets for each gaming state, and FIG. The combination of the re-games read out as the lottery target game for each game state is shown. FIG. 15 shows combinations of the combinations constituting the simultaneous winning combinations shown in FIGS.

  When internal center 1 · RT0, internal center 2 · RT0, bell, left bell 1, left bell 2, left bell 3, left bell 4, center bell 1, center bell 2, center bell 3, center bell 4, right Bell 1, Right bell 2, Right bell 3, Right bell 4, Weak watermelon, Strong watermelon, Weak cherry, Strong cherry, Middle cherry, Single role, Normal replay, Lower replay, SP replay, Tumble replay, Promotion replay, Special Replay is the target for internal lottery.

  When it is BBRB · RT0, the weak cherry and all roles are subject to internal lottery, and when it is RB · RT0, all roles, RB bell 1, RB bell 2, and RB bell 3 are subject to internal lottery.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 15, a weak watermelon is an upper stage watermelon + right-down watermelon. A strong watermelon is a middle-stage watermelon + right-down watermelon. That is, when the middle stage watermelon wins, it can be recognized that it is a strong watermelon. Weak cherries are lower cherries alone, strong cherries are lower cherries + 1 piece, whereas weak cherries are controlled so that the combination of “BAR-BAR-BAR” can be derived in the middle. The strong cherry is controlled so that the combination of “BAR-BAR-BAR” can be derived in the middle stage, the cherry stops in the lower stage of the left reel 2L, and “BAR-BAR-BAR” in the middle stage. You can recognize that it is a strong cherry by having the combination of.

  The bell is a middle bell + a downward-sloping bell. Left bell 1 is right falling bell 5 + upper bell 5 + upper bell 8, left bell 2 is right falling bell + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7, and left bell 3 is right falling bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3, left bell 4 is right falling bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 4. The left bells 1 to 4 are also simply called left bells. The middle bell 1 is the middle bell + the upper bell 2 + the upper bell 5, the middle bell 2 is the middle bell + the upper bell 1 + the upper bell 6, and the middle bell 3 is the middle bell + the upper bell 4 + the upper bell. 7 and the middle bell 4 is the middle bell + the upper bell 3 + the upper bell 8. The middle bells 1 to 4 are also simply called middle bells. The right bell 1 is the middle bell + the upper bell 3 + the upper bell 5, the right bell 2 is the middle bell + the upper bell 1 + the upper bell 7, and the right bell 3 is the middle bell + the upper bell 4 + the upper bell. 6 and the right bell 4 is the middle bell + the upper bell 2 + the upper bell 8. The right bells 1 to 4 are also simply called right bells. The left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are also simply referred to as push order bells.

  All roles are all small roles other than right-up bevel, ie middle bell + right-down bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3 + upper bell 4 + upper bell 5 + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7 + upper bell 8 + middle watermelon + Lower right watermelon + upper watermelon + lower cherry + middle cherries + 1 piece + right rising bell + right rising rivet.

  The RB bell 1 is a right-up bell + right-up bevel, the RB bell 2 is a right-up bell + right-up bevel + right-up beryl, and the RB bell 3 is all small roles, that is, the middle stage bell. + Downward bell + Upper bell 1 + Upper bell 2 + Upper bell 3 + Upper bell 4 + Upper bell 5 + Upper bell 6 + Upper bell 7 + Upper bell 8 + Middle watermelon + Lower watermelon + Upper watermelon + Lower cherry + Middle cherry + Single role + Upright Bell + bevel up to the right + bevel up to the right.

The promotion replay is promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2.
Replay GR1 is normal replay + promotion replay 1, replay GR2 is normal replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2, replay GR3 is normal replay + promotion replay 1 + lower replay, and replay GR4. Is normal replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2 + lower replay, replay GR5 is normal replay + promotion replay 2, and replay GR6 is normal replay + promotion replay 2 + lower replay.

  Replay GR11 is a fall replay + promotion replay 2, replay GR12 is a fall replay + promotion replay 2 + normal replay, replay GR13 is a fall replay + promotion replay 1, and replay GR14 is a fall Replay + promotion replay 1 + normal replay, replay GR15 is fall replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2, and replay GR16 is fall replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2 + normal replay.

  Replay GR21 is tumble replay + special replay, replay GR22 is tumble replay + special replay + normal replay, replay GR23 is tumble replay + special replay + lower replay, and replay GR24 is Tumble replay + special replay + normal replay + lower replay. Replay GR25 is tumble replay + special replay + promotion replay 1.

  Replay GR31 is special replay + SP replay + normal replay, replay GR32 is special replay + SP replay + normal replay + falling replay, and replay GR33 is special replay + SP replay + lower replay, and replay GR34. Is special replay + SP replay + lower replay + falling replay, replay GR35 is special replay + SP replay + normal replay + lower replay, and replay GR36 is special replay + SP replay + normal replay + lower replay + It is a fall replay.

  Also, in normal / RT0-4, etc., weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherries, single role, normal replay, fall replay, promotion that can be elected simultaneously with any of BB1-BB4, RB1, RB2 The replay and SP replay judgment values are read separately from the bonus in internal 1 · RT0 and internal 2 · RT0, respectively, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherries, one-piece role, normal Since it is added to Replay, Tumble Replay, Promotion Replay, and SP Replay, the winning probability of each of Strong Watermelon, Weak Cherry, Strong Cherry, Middle Cherry, Single Role, Normal Replay, Tumble Replay, Promotion Replay, and SP Replay is constant. It is secured to be.

  In this way, the internal lottery role varies depending on whether the gaming state is the normal gaming state, 1 or 2 inside, BB (RB), or RB, and BB (RB) In RB, the internal lottery is performed using a lottery table in which the winning probability of the small role is set higher than in the normal gaming state and inside.

  Also, when the game state is 1 or 2 in the inside, the subject of the internal lottery does not change depending on whether it is 1 in the inside or 2 in the inside, but it is 1 in the inside or inside The internal lottery is performed using a lottery table having different winning probabilities for the target re-game player depending on whether the winning combination is 2.

  In addition, when the gaming state is the normal gaming state, the re-game player to be subject to the internal lottery differs depending on whether it is RT0-4, and depending on whether it is RT0-4 An internal lottery is performed using a lottery table with different re-game players and their winning probabilities.

  In this embodiment, when a plurality of types of re-game players are won at the same time, as shown in FIG. 16, a re-game player determined according to the type of the re-game players won at the same time and the stop operation order is won. Control is performed so that the lines are aligned and stopped within a maximum of four frames on the line. FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining reel control when a plurality of replays are won simultaneously.

  When the replay GR1 (normal replay + promotion replay 1) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle left and right, the combination of the promotion replay 1 among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than the left middle right, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the pay line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR2 (normal replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of promotion replay 1 among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle left and right, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR3 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the middle left or right order, the combination of Promotion Replay 1 among the selected replay players will be aligned to the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle left and right, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the pay line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR4 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Promotion Replay 2 + Lower Replay) is won and a stop operation is performed in the middle right / left order, the combination of Promotion Replay 1 among the selected replaying players is placed on the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR5 (normal replay + promotion replay 2) is won and stop operation is performed in the order of the middle left and right, the combination of the promotion replay 2 among the selected replay players is stopped in line with the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle right and left, control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the pay line LN and stopped.

  When Replay GR6 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 2 + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, the combination of Promotion Replay 2 of the selected replaying players is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when stop operations are performed in an order other than right middle left, control is performed so that the combination of normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2, and the normal replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R. The reel control is performed so that the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2 or the normal replay always wins regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R according to the operation order.

  In this way, different operation modes are set as the operation modes for allowing the replays GR1 to 6 to win the promoted replays 1 and 2.

  Therefore, in the normal / RT1 where the replays GR1 to 6 are the targets of the internal lottery, if any of the replays GR1 to GR6 is elected, the promoted replay wins with a probability of 1/6, and the normal / RT0 Will be migrated.

  When replay GR11 (falling replay + promotion replay 2) is won and a stop operation is performed in the order of middle left and right, the combination of promotion replay 2 among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than the left middle right, the stop replay combination is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR12 (Tumble Replay + Promotion Replay 2 + Normal Replay) is won and stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of Promotion Replay 2 among the selected replay players will be aligned to the winning line LN and stopped When the stop operation is performed in an order other than left and right, the control for stopping the combination of falling replays on the winning line LN is performed.

  When the replay GR13 (falling replay + promotion replay 1) is won and a stop operation is performed in the middle left and right order, the control of stopping the combination of the promotion replay 1 among the selected replay players in the winning line LN If the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle left and right, control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR14 (Tumble Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Normal Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the middle right-left order, the combination of Promotion Replay 1 among the selected replay players will be aligned to the winning line LN and stopped. If the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, the control is performed to stop the combination of the fall replays aligned with the winning line LN.

  When Replay GR15 (Tumble Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Promotion Replay 2) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of the middle left and right, the combination of Promotion Replay 2 of the selected re-players is aligned with the winning line LN. Control to stop is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle right and left, control is performed to align the fall replay combination to the winning line LN and stop.

  If Replay GR16 (Tumble Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Promotion Replay 2 + Normal Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, the combination of Promotion Replay 2 among the selected re-playing players will be the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the right middle left, the control is performed to stop the combination of fall replays on the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2, and the fall replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R. Depending on the order of operation, the reel control is performed so that the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2, or the fall replay always wins regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R.

  As described above, different operation modes are set as the operation modes in order to allow the replays GR11 to 16 to win the promoted replays 1 and 2 and to avoid the fall replay.

  Therefore, in the normal / RT0 where the replay GRs 11-16 are subject to internal lottery, if any of the replays GR11-16 is elected, the promoted replay wins with a probability of 1/6 and the normal / RT0 is maintained. On the other hand, the fall replay wins with a probability of 5/6 and shifts to normal RT1.

  When the replay GR21 (falling replay + special replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left middle, right, and right, the combination of the special replays among the replaying players who have won is controlled to stop at the winning line LN. If the stop operation is performed in an order other than left middle right, control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR22 (falling replay + special replay + normal replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is stopped in line with the winning line LN. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than left and right, the control is performed so that the combination of the falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR23 (falling replay + special replay + lower replay) is won and a stop operation is performed in the middle / left / right order, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle left and right, the control is performed to stop the combination of the fall replays aligned with the winning line LN.

  When Replay GR24 (Tumble Replay + Special Replay + Normal Replay + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is made in the middle right-left order, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is aligned to the winning line LN If the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, the control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If Replay GR25 (Tumble Replay + Special Replay + Promotion Replay 1) is elected and right-pressed, that is, if a stop operation is performed in an operation mode in which the right reel 2R is first stopped, the special replay among the replayed players selected When the stop operation is performed in the operation mode in which the combination of the above is aligned with the pay line LN and stopped, and the left reel 2L is first stopped or in the middle mode, that is, the middle reel 2C is first stopped. In this case, a control is performed to stop the combination of falling replays in line with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, since the symbols constituting the special replay and the fall replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less in all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R, Regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R, the reel control is performed so that the special replay or the fall replay is always won.

  In this way, different operation modes are set as the operation modes in order to win special replays and avoid falling replays with the replays GR21 to GR25.

  For this reason, if one of the replays GR21 to 25 is elected in the normal / RT0 in which the replays GR21 to 25 are the targets of the internal lottery, the special replay wins with a probability of 1/5 and shifts to the normal / RT2. On the other hand, the fall replay wins with a probability of 4/5 and shifts to normal RT1.

  When replay GR31 (special replay + SP replay + normal replay) is won and a stop operation is performed in the order of left, middle and right, the combination of SP replays among the selected replay players is stopped in line with the winning line LN. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in the order of right and left, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays among the selected re-playing players is aligned with the winning line LN, and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or the right. In the case where it has been made, control is performed so that the combination of special replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR32 (special replay + SP replay + normal replay + fall replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of SP replays among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in the order of left, middle and right, control is performed so that the combination of normal replays among the selected re-playing players is aligned with the winning line LN, and stopped by pressing the middle or right. When the stop operation is performed, control is performed to stop the special replay combination in alignment with the pay line LN.

  When replay GR33 (special replay + SP replay + lower stage replay) is won, and stop operation is performed in the middle left and right order, the control for stopping the combination of SP replays in the winning replay combination in line with the winning line LN If the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays among the selected re-players is aligned with the winning line LN, and the stop operation is performed by pressing left or right. In the case where it has been made, control is performed so that the combination of special replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When Replay GR34 (Special Replay + SP Replay + Lower Replay + Falling Replay) is won and the stop operation is made in the middle right / left order, the combination of SP replays among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN. If stop operation is performed in the order of middle left and right, control is performed to align the combination of the normal replays among the selected re-playing players on the winning line LN, and stop by pressing left or right. When the stop operation is performed, control is performed to stop the special replay combination in alignment with the pay line LN.

  When Replay GR35 (Special Replay + SP Replay + Normal Replay + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of SP replays among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN If stop control is performed in the order of right, middle and left, control is performed so that the combination of normal replays among the selected re-playing players is aligned with the winning line LN, and left or middle press is performed. When the stop operation is performed, control is performed to stop the special replay combination in alignment with the pay line LN.

  If Replay GR36 (Special Replay + SP Replay + Normal Replay + Lower Replay + Falling Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, the combination of SP Replay among the selected replayers will be the winning line Control to stop in line with LN is performed, and if stop operation is performed in the order of middle left and right, control is performed to stop the combination of normal replays among the selected re-playing players in line with the winning line LN, and press left Alternatively, when a stop operation is performed by pressing the middle, control is performed to stop the special replay combination in alignment with the pay line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the SP replay, special replay, and normal replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R. Accordingly, the reel control is performed so that SP replay, special replay or normal replay always wins regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R.

  In this way, different operation modes are set as operation modes for winning SP replays with the replay GRs 31 to 36, and different operations are performed as operation modes for winning SP replays or normal replays and avoiding special replays. A mode is set.

  Therefore, in the normal / RT2 where the replay GRs 31 to 36 are the targets of the internal lottery, if any of the replay GRs 31 to 36 is won, the SP replay is won with a probability of 1/6 and the process proceeds to the normal / RT3. On the other hand, the normal replay or special replay is won with a probability of 5/6 and the normal / RT2 is maintained. In addition, when SP replay wins as will be described later, one or more navigation stocks that are advantageous to the player will always be given, so if one of the replay GRs 31 to 36 is won in normal / RT2 One or more SP replays are won with a probability of 1/6, and one or more navigation stocks are given, and it is easy to win SP replays, that is, it is possible to shift to normal RT3 where there is a high possibility that navigation stocks will be given.

  In addition, in normal / RT3 where the replay GRs 31 to 36 are the targets of the internal lottery, if one of the replays GR31 to 36 is won, the SP replay wins with a probability of 1/6 and one navigation stock described later On the other hand, the normal replay wins with a probability of 1/6 and normal RT3 is maintained, and the special replay wins with a probability of 4/6 and shifts to normal RT2.

  Next, when a plurality of types of small combinations are won simultaneously, as shown in FIG. 17, a maximum of four small combinations determined according to the types of small combinations that are simultaneously selected and the order of stop operations are displayed on the winning line. Control is performed so that the frames are stopped within the frame drawing range. FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining the reel control when a plurality of small combinations are won simultaneously.

  If left bell 1 (lower right bell + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7) wins and the stop operation is performed by pressing to the left, the combination of right-down bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle press or right press, control is performed such that any combination of the upper bell 6, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 2 (lower right bell + upper bell 5 + upper bell 8) is elected and stopped by left-pressing, the combination of right-down bells in the selected small role is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle press or right press, control is performed such that any combination of the upper bell 5, the upper bell 6 or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 3 (lower right bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3) is elected and the operation is stopped by pressing the left button, the right falling bell combination of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle press or right press, control is performed such that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 3 or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 4 (lower right bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 4) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing left, the combination of the right falling bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle press or right press, control is performed such that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 4 or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the right-down bell configuration symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the left bells 1 to 4 are elected, a stop operation is performed by pushing left. In this case, the control is performed to make sure that the right-down bell is aligned with the winning line LN regardless of the timing of the stop operation, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are spaced at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Even if the left bells 1 to 4 are elected because there are locations, if the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or right, it will be the drawing range of the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 If the stop operation is not performed at an appropriate timing, the winning upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in this case, the control is performed so that the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 1 (middle bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 5) is elected and a stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, control is performed so that the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. If the stop operation is performed by pressing, left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 5, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 2 (middle bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 6) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles on the winning line LN is performed. If the stop operation is performed by performing the left push or the right push, the control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 6, or the shift turn is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 3 (middle bell + upper bell 4 + upper bell 7) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles on the winning line LN is performed. If the stop operation is performed by pressing, left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 4, the upper bell 7, or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 4 (middle bell + upper bell 3 + upper bell 8) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells among the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN. If the stop operation is performed by performing the left push or the right push, control is performed to stop any combination of the upper bell 3, the upper bell 8, or the shift turn in line with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbols of the middle bell are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels. When the middle bells 1 to 4 are elected, when the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell. Regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the middle bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Even if the middle bells 1 to 4 are elected, if the stop operation is performed by pressing left or right, an appropriate range that will be drawn in the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 will be used. If the stop operation is not performed at the timing, the selected upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in such a case, control is performed so that the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 1 (middle bell + upper bell 3 + upper bell 5) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 3, the upper bell 5, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 2 (middle bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 7) is elected and a stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells among the selected small roles is stopped in alignment with winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 7, or the transition result is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 3 (middle bell + upper bell 4 + upper bell 6) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 4, the upper bell 6, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 4 (middle bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 8) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells among the selected small roles is stopped in alignment with winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 8, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbols of the middle bell are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the right bell 1 to 4 is elected, the stop operation is performed by pushing right However, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the middle bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Therefore, even if the right bells 1 to 4 are elected, if the stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, an appropriate drawing range of the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 is appropriate. If the stop operation is not performed at the timing, the selected upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in such a case, control is performed so that the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  Thus, in this embodiment, if any of the left bell, middle bell, right bell, that is, the push order bell is won, by performing a stop operation in a specific operation mode according to the type of winning combination, While the right-down bell or middle bell always wins, if the stop operation is performed in an operation mode other than the specific operation mode corresponding to the type of winning combination, the upper bell is aligned at 1/4, but at 3/4 In some cases, the upper bells are not aligned and the transition outcomes are aligned.

  For this reason, at the time of winning the push order bell, the expected value of the number of medals to be paid out can be changed depending on whether or not it is operated in a specific operation mode according to the type of winning combination. In other words, even if one of the push order bells is won, it is impossible to intentionally select a specific operation mode unless the type is known. Although a medal can be surely obtained by winning a prize, the upper bell can be won only by 1/4 at a ratio of 2/3, and a medal cannot be surely obtained.

  When RB Bell 1 (Rising Right + Rising Right) is elected and a stop operation is performed by pressing to the left, control is performed so that the combination of the right rising bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. If the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle, right or right, the control is performed to stop the right-up ascending combination with the winning line LN.

  If RB Bell 2 (Rising Right + Right Rising + Right Rising) is won and stopped by pressing the middle, the combination of right rising bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by pressing the button to the left, the control is performed so that the combination of the right-up bevel is aligned with the winning line LN, and when the stop operation is performed by pressing the button to the right, Control is performed to stop the combination in line with the winning line LN.

  RB bell 3 (middle bell + lower right bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 3 + upper bell 4 + upper bell 5 + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7 + upper bell 8 + middle watermelon + lower watermelon + upper watermelon + lower cherry + middle cherry +1 piece role + right-up bell + right-up bevel + right-up bevel), and if the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of right-up bells in the selected small role is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed to stop the right-beveled bevel combination aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbols of the right-up bell, the right-up bevel, and the right-up bevel are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the RB bells 1 to 4 are won, Regardless of the timing of the stop operation, any combination of right-up bell, right-up ribebe and right-up bevel will be aligned on the winning line LN and 10 medals will be paid out, but at a rate of 1/3 Only "bell-bell-bell" combinations will be aligned to the right.

  Although not particularly shown, when a bell (middle bell + lower right bell) is won, a combination of “bell-bell-bell” is arranged on the winning line LN regardless of the stop order of the reels and the operation timing. To be controlled.

  Also, all roles (middle bell + lower right bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3 + upper bell 4 + upper bell 5 + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7 + upper bell 8 + middle watermelon + lower watermelon + upper watermelon + lower cherry + middle (Cherry + 1 hand + right-up bell + right-up rivebe) is selected, the “bell-bell-bell” combination is controlled to rise to the right regardless of the reel stop order and operation timing. The

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, it is controlled to one of the normal gaming state, the inside 1, the inside 2, RB and BB (RB), and in the normal gaming state, RT0-4 It is controlled by either.

  As described above, the RAM of the main control unit 41 is assigned with an area for storing a gaming state flag that can specify a gaming state and an area for storing an RT flag that can specify an RT type. Yes. The gaming state flag is 4-bit data, 0000 indicates the normal gaming state, 0001 indicates the internal one, 0010 indicates the internal two, 0100 indicates the RB, and 1100 indicates the BB (RB). . The RT flag is 4-bit data. 0000 indicates RT0, 0001 indicates RT1, 0010 indicates RT2, 0011 indicates RT3, and 0100 indicates RT4. In addition, an area capable of storing the number of remaining RT games is allocated to the RAM in addition to the RT flag storage area, and the number of remaining games until the RT ends is stored. Note that in the case of RT0, 3, and 4 that do not end when the number of games is exhausted, 0 is set as the RT remaining game number.

  As shown in FIG. 10, when the value of the gaming state flag is 0000 and the value of the RT flag is 0000, it indicates that the normal gaming state is RT0, the value of the gaming state flag is 0000, and the value of the RT flag is 0001. In this case, it indicates that the normal gaming state is RT1, and when the gaming state flag value is 0000 and the RT flag value is 0010, it indicates that the normal gaming state is RT2, and the gaming state flag value is When the value of 0000 and the RT flag is 0011, it indicates that the normal gaming state is RT3, and when the value of the RT flag is 0100, it indicates that the normal gaming state is RT4, and the value of the gaming state flag is If the value of 0001 and RT flag is 0000, it indicates that it is 1 inside, and if the value of game state flag is 0010 and the value of RT flag is 0000, If the value of the game state flag is 0100 and the value of the RT flag is 0000, it indicates RB, and if the value of the game state flag is 1100 and the value of the RT flag is 0000 , BB (RB).

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, as the lottery table in which the number of determination values for the target combination is determined, the lottery table for internal one, the lottery table for internal two, the lottery table for RB, and the lottery for BB (RB) Each having a table and a lottery table for a normal gaming state, and further, as a lottery table for a normal gaming state, a lottery table for RT0, a lottery table for RT1, a lottery table for RT2, a lottery table for RT3, Each has a lottery table for RT4.

  In the internal lottery process, the gaming state flag and the RT flag value stored in the RAM are referred to specify the gaming state and the RT type, the lottery table is selected accordingly, and the selected lottery table is selected. By using the lottery, the lottery subject to the lottery according to the game state and the type of RT is drawn with the winning probability according to the game state and the type of RT.

  Specifically, first, the value of the game state flag stored in the RAM is referred to, whether the current game state is BB (RB), whether it is RB, whether it is internal 1, whether it is internal 2, If the current gaming state is in BB (RB), a lottery table for BB (RB) in which a target combination of internal lottery in BB (RB) and the number of determination values thereof are stored. If the RB is in the RB, the RB lottery table in which the target part of the internal lottery in the RB and the number of determination values thereof is stored is selected and the lottery is performed. , Select a lottery table for the internal lot 1 for the internal lot 1 and the number of judgment values stored therein, and perform the lottery. If the internal lot is 2, the internal lot 2 for the internal lot 2 And a lottery table for 2 insides in which the number of judgment values is stored If the current gaming state is neither BB (RB), RB, nor internal 1 or 2, i.e., the normal gaming state, the RT stored in the RAM is selected. Each game can be determined by referring to the flag value and selecting a lottery table for normal use in which the target combination of the internal lottery and the number of determination values are stored according to the type of RT specified from the value. The lottery of the target combination corresponding to the state and the type of RT will be performed with the winning probability corresponding to each gaming state and the type of RT.

  Normal / RT0 is normal / RT1 when a promotion replay wins (when either one of the replays GR1 to GR6 is elected and a stop operation is performed in the order in which the promotion replay wins), normal / RT1 or normal / RT2 Transitions to when the game is over due to the number of games being played. At this time, the value of the game state flag does not change from 0000 indicating the normal game state, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0000 indicating RT0, and 0 indicating that there is no limit on the number of games as the RT remaining game number. Is set. Regardless of the number of games after the transition to normal / RT0, the normal / RT0 shifts to the normal / RT1 by winning the fall replay or stopping the transition, or to the normal / RT2 by winning the special replay It ends when the special role is elected and moves to the inside 1 or inside 2 inside.

  Usually, the winning probability for special roles in RT0 is normal (about 1/239), the winning probability for replaying roles is high (about 1 / 1.4), and the winning probability for small roles is normal (about 1 / 3.5) However, the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1), and the payout rate of medals per game is 1 or more. In normal / RT0, only the replay GRs 11 to 16 and the replay GRs 21 to 25 among the replaying combinations are targeted for the internal lottery, except when winning at the same time as the special combination. In addition, the total of the winning probabilities of the replays GR11 to 16 is about ½. Among them, the fall replay wins with a probability of 5/6 and moves to RT1, and the total of the winning probabilities of the replays GR21 to 25 is about 1. /4.5, of which a special replay wins with a probability of 1/5, shifts to RT2, a fall replay wins with a probability of 4/5, shifts to RT1, and further, left bell 1-4, middle The total of the winning probabilities for Bells 1 to 4 and Right Bells 1 to 4 is about 1 / 3.9, of which 2/3 × 3/4 has a chance to stop and will move to RT1. Therefore, if the winning of a special role with a low winning probability is not taken into consideration, the expected number of games (average number of games) will be about 1.3 games when transitioning to normal RT0.

  Normal / RT1 shifts when the transition is stopped at normal / RT0, normal / RT2, normal / RT3, normal / RT4, or when a fall replay wins at normal / RT0. At this time, the value of the game state flag does not change from 0000 indicating the normal game state, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0001 indicating RT1, and 1000 is set as the RT remaining game number. The normal RT1 is such that the number of remaining RT games is subtracted for each game, and the normal number of RT remaining games is reduced to 0 by digesting the specified number of games (1000G in this embodiment).・ It will end when it shifts to RT0, or when the special role is elected and shifts to 1 inside or 2 inside.

  Normal / RT1 special role win probability is normal (approx. 1/239), same as RT0, re-game player win probability is lower than normal / RT0 normal (approx. 1 / 7.3), small role win The probability is normal (normally about 1 / 3.5, but the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1) like RT0, and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. Further, in normal / RT1, only normal replay and replay GR1 to replay GR1 to 6 are included in the internal lottery. In addition, the total of the winning probabilities of replays GR1 to GR6 is about 1 / 8.7, and the promotion replay wins with a probability of 1/6 of them, and the transition to normal / RT0 is made. If the winning combination is not taken into consideration, the number of expected games (average number of games) is about 52 games when transitioning to normal / RT1.

  Normal / RT2 shifts when a special replay wins in normal / RT0 or normal / RT3. At this time, the value of the game state flag does not change from 0000 indicating the normal game state, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0010 indicating RT2, and 30 is set as the number of remaining RT games. The normal RT 2 is such that the number of remaining RT games is subtracted for each game, and the normal number of RT remaining games is reduced to 0 by digesting the specified number of games (30G in this embodiment).・ Move to RT0, SP replay wins and move to normal ・ RT3, or move to stop and move to normal ・ RT1, or special role wins and becomes 1 in internal or 2 in internal It ends by migrating.

  Normal / RT2 special role win probability is normal (approx. 1/239), same as RT0, re-game player win probability is almost the same as RT (0), high probability (approx. 1 / 1.4), small The winning probability of the combination is normal (normally about 1 / 3.5, but the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1) as with RT0, and the payout rate of medals per game is 1 or more. Also, in normal / RT2, only the normal replay and replay GR31 to 36 of the replaying combinations are subject to internal lottery, except when winning at the same time as the special combination. In addition, the total of the winning probabilities of the replays GR31 to 36 is about 1/129, of which the SP replay wins with a probability of 1/6 and shifts to normal / RT3, and the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 1 4, the total of the winning probabilities of right bells 1 to 4 is about 1 / 3.9, and the transition will stop with a probability of 2/3 × 3/4, and will move to normal / RT1. If the special role with a low winning probability is not taken into consideration, the expected number of games (average number of games) will be about 7.9 when the game is shifted to the normal RT2.

  Normal / RT3 shifts when SP replay wins in normal / RT2. At this time, the value of the game state flag does not change from 0000 indicating the normal game state, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0011 indicating RT3, and 0 indicating that there is no limit on the number of games as the RT remaining game number. Is set. Regardless of the number of games since the transition to normal / RT3, whether or not the normal / RT3 shifts to the normal / RT2 with the special replay winning, or the transition outcome stops and shifts to the normal / RT1 When the special role is elected and moves to the inside 1 or the inside 2, it ends.

  In normal / RT3, the probability of winning a special role is normal (approximately 1/239), as in RT0, and the winning probability of a replaying player is almost the same as RT (0), with a high probability (approximately 1 / 1.4), small The winning probability of the combination is normal (normally about 1 / 3.5, but the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1) as with RT0, and the payout rate of medals per game is 1 or more. Also, in normal / RT3, only the replay GRs 31 to 36 and the SP replay are subject to the internal lottery except for the case where the special combination is won at the same time. In addition, the total of the winning probabilities of Replay GR31 to 36 is about 1 / 1.4. Among them, special replay wins with a probability of 2/3. 1 to 4 and right bells 1 to 4 have a total winning probability of about 1 / 3.9, of which 2/3 × 3/4 has the chance to stop and move to normal / RT1 Therefore, if the special role with a low winning probability is not taken into account, the expected number of games (average number of games) is about 1.7 when the game is shifted to the normal RT3.

  Normal / RT4 shifts to the end of BB (RB) and RB. At this time, the value of the game state flag does not change from 0000 indicating the normal game state, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0011 indicating RT3, and 0 indicating that there is no limit on the number of games as the RT remaining game number. Is set. Regardless of the number of games since the transition to the normal / RT4, the normal / RT4 stops the transition and moves to the RT1, or the special role is elected and moves to the internal 1 or the internal 2 To finish.

  The winning probability for special roles in normal / RT4 is normal (about 1/239), the winning probability for re-playing roles is normal / normally lower than RT0 (about 1 / 7.3), and the winning probability for small roles is normal / RT0 As usual, it is normal (about 1 / 3.5, but the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1), and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. Moreover, in normal / RT4, except for the case where the winning combination is won at the same time as the special combination, only the normal replay among the re-playing combination is subject to the internal lottery. The total winning probability of left bells 1-4, middle bells 1-4, and right bells 1-4 is about 1 / 3.9, of which 2/3 × 3/4 has a chance of stopping, Since the transition to normal / RT1 is made, if the special role with a low winning probability is not taken into consideration, the expected number of games (average number of games) is about 7.9 games when the transition is made to normal / RT2. .

  The inside 1 shifts when BB1, BB3, RB2 among the special roles are won in the normal gaming state. At this time, the value of the game state flag is updated to 0001 indicating 1 in the inside, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0000 indicating RT0, and the number of games is also updated to 0 as the number of remaining RT games. Then, regardless of the number of games since the transition to the inside, the inside 1 finishes when the special role that triggered the transition to the inside 1 wins and shifts to BB (RB) or RB. .

  In internal 1 the special role is not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of re-playing role is lower than normal RT0, normal RT2, normal RT3, but higher than normal RT1, normal RT4 Probability (approx. 1 / 4.2), winning probability of small role is normal (approx. 1 / 3.5, but winning probability is approx. 1 / 6.1), and medal payout rate per game is less than 1 It becomes. Moreover, in the inside 1, only the normal replay and the lower replay among the re-game players are targeted for the internal lottery.

  The inside 2 shifts when BB2, BB4, RB1 among special roles are won in the normal gaming state. At this time, the value of the game state flag is updated to 0010 indicating 2 inside, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0000 indicating RT0, and the number of games is also updated to 0 as the number of remaining RT games. Then, inside 2 ends regardless of the number of games since the transition to the inside, when the special combination that triggered the transition to the inside 2 wins and shifts to BB (RB) or RB. .

  In internal 2, the special role is not eligible for internal lottery, and the winning probability of replaying is lower than normal RT0, normal RT2, normal RT3, but normal RT1, normal RT4, internal 1 Higher probability (approx. 1 / 2.9), the winning probability of a small role is normal (approx. 1 / 3.5, but the winning probability is approx. 1 / 6.1), and medals are paid out per game. The rate is less than 1. Further, in the inside 2, only the normal replay and the lower replay among the re-game players are targeted for the internal lottery.

  RB shifts when RB1 or RB2 wins in 1 and 2 inside. At this time, the value of the game state flag is updated to 0100 indicating RB, the value of the RT flag does not change from 0000 indicating RT (0), and the number of remaining RT games does not change from 0. And RB is complete | finished by digesting 6 games or winning 6 times.

  In RB, the special role and re-playing role are not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of the small role is higher than normal 1 and 2 in the normal gaming state, high probability (about 1 / 1.01), The payout rate of medals per game is 1 or more.

  BB (RB) shifts when BB wins inside. At this time, the value of the game state flag is updated to 1100 indicating BB (RB), the value of the RT flag does not change from 0000 indicating RT (0), and the number of remaining RT games does not change from 0. Then, BB (RB) ends when the total number of medals paid out to BB (RB) exceeds the prescribed number, regardless of the number of games since the transition to BB (RB).

  In BB (RB), special roles and re-playing roles are not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of small roles is higher than the normal gaming state, 1 or 2 inside, and high probability (about 1 / 1.00) The medal payout rate per game is 1 or more.

  Among the normal gaming state, 1, 2, RB, and BB (RB), RB and BB (RB) are the most advantageous gaming states with the highest medal payout rate per game.

  RT0, RT2, RT4, RT0-4 in the normal gaming state have a high probability that the re-gamer wins and the payout rate of medals per game is higher than RT1, 4, RT1 4 can be said to be a more advantageous state for the player.

  RT0, 2, and 3 in the normal gaming state both have a higher medal payout rate per game than RT1 and 4, but RT3 is the most expected to acquire the number of navigation stocks described below. It can be said that the player is more advantageous than RTs 2 and 3. Further, while there may be a direct transition from RT2 to RT3, there is no direct transition from RT0 to RT3, and in this respect RT2 can be said to be a more advantageous state for the player than RT0.

  RT0 and 4 in the normal gaming state are lower than RT0, 2 and 3 in that the winning probability of the re-gamer is low and the payout rate of medals per game is lower than RT0, 2 and 3. This is a disadvantage for the player.

  In addition, the slot machine in this embodiment has an assist time (hereinafter, referred to as a notification period) in which the sub control unit 91 can execute a navigation effect informing the internal lottery result when the gaming state is normal RT0-3. The production state is controllable at AT).

  Here, the gaming state and the transition status of RT according to the present embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 9, when RB or BB (RB) ends, the routine shifts to normal RT4.

  In normal / RT4, when the transition is stopped, the transition is made to RT1, and when the special role is elected, the transition is made to internal 1 or internal 2 according to the type of the special role won.

  In normal / RT4, if any of the left bells 1-4, middle bells 1-4, right bells 1-4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome will stop. Therefore, any of the left bell 1-4, the middle bell 1-4, the right bell 1-4 can be won and the small role can be won in the normal RT 4 which has been shifted to after the end of RB or BB (RB) If not, the process moves to normal RT1.

  Normally, in RT1, the special role is not won, the promotion replay is not won, the specified number of games (1000G) is consumed, or the promotion replay wins, and the normal role is transferred to RT0, and the special role is won Depending on the type of the special role that has been won, the game moves to the inside 1 or 2 inside.

  Usually ・ Replay GR1-6 wins in RT1, and the promotion replay wins when the stop order is correct. Therefore, in normal ・ RT1, replay GR1-6 wins and corrects in the order of stop. It will shift to RT0.

  In normal / RT0, if the fall replay wins, or if the transition is stopped, it moves to normal / RT1, and if the special replay wins, it moves to normal / RT2, and the special role is won. Depending on the type of the special role, it shifts to 1 inside or 2 inside.

  Usually, the replays GR11 to 16 are won at RT0, the promotion replay wins when the stopping order is correct, and the fall replay wins when the answer is incorrect. In addition, when the replays GR21 to 25 are elected in normal / RT0 and the stop order is correct, the special replay is won, and if the answer is incorrect, the fall replay is won. In addition, in the case of normal / RT0, when any one of the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. Therefore, in normal / RT0, the replay GRs 21 to 25 are elected and the stop order is correct, so that the transition is made to normal / RT2 and the replay GRs 11 to 16 are elected and the stop order is incorrect or the left bell 1 -4, middle bell 1 to 4, right bell 1 to 4 are elected, and if it is not possible to win a small role, it will shift to normal · RT1.

  Normally, in RT2, the special role is not won, SP replay is not won, and the regular game number (30G) is used to move to normal RT0, and SP replay is won to move to normal RT3, When the special role is elected, it shifts to 1 inside or 2 inside depending on the kind of the special role won.

  In normal / RT2, the replay GRs 31 to 36 are won, and the SP replay wins when the stop order is correct. Further, in the normal / RT2, when any of the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4 and the right bell 1 to 4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. For this reason, in normal / RT2, the replays GR31 to 36 are elected, and when the stopping order is correct, the routine proceeds to normal / RT3, and any of the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, and the right bell 1 to 4 Will be transferred to normal / RT1 if the winning combination is not successful.

  In normal / RT3, when the special replay wins, it moves to RT2, and when the transition roll stops, it moves to normal / RT1, and the special role is elected. Transition to Medium 1 or Internal 2

  In normal / RT3, the replay GRs 31 to 36 are elected, the SP replay or the normal replay is won when the stop order is correct, and the special replay is won if the answer is incorrect. Further, in the normal / RT3, when any one of the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome is stopped. For this reason, in normal / RT3, the replay GRs 31 to 36 are elected, and the stop order becomes incorrect, so the routine proceeds to normal / RT2, and the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, the right bell 1 to 4 If either of them wins and the small combination cannot be won, the routine will shift to RT1.

  In the inside 1 and 2, the special role that triggers the transition to the inside wins a transition to RB or BB (RB).

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the game state flag is assigned to the general work that is initialized when the setting is changed in the RAM area, while the RT flag and the RT remaining game number are included in the RAM area. Assigned to important work that is not initialized when the setting is changed.

  For this reason, when the setting is changed in the normal gaming state, the gaming state flag is initialized and updated to 0000 indicating the normal gaming state, but the value of the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games are changed. Since the previous state is maintained, when the setting is changed in the normal gaming state, the RT type before the setting change and the number of remaining RT games are inherited even after the setting is changed.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, when the gaming state shifts from the normal gaming state to the internal medium 1 or the internal medium 2, the value of the RT flag is updated to 0000 indicating RT0, and then the transitioned RB Alternatively, the value of the RT flag is maintained at 0000 indicating RT0 until BB (RB) ends.

  For this reason, when the setting is changed in the inside 1 and 2, the gaming state flag is initialized and updated to 0000 indicating the normal gaming state, and the value of the RT flag is maintained, but is always 0000 indicating RT0. Therefore, when the setting is changed in the inside, the normal gaming state RT0 is always set.

  Similarly, when the setting is changed in BB (RB), the gaming state flag is initialized and updated to 0000 indicating the normal gaming state, and the value of the RT flag is maintained, but 0000 indicating RT0 is always set. Since it is set, even when the setting is changed in BB (RB), it always becomes the normal gaming state RT0.

  Even in the case of a slot machine that can maintain the game state before the change even if the setting is changed, an extremely advantageous game state such as a bonus is generally initialized before opening the store. For this reason, in a conventional slot machine, a specific game state that is extremely advantageous to the player is ended by changing the setting, but in order to specify whether the game state before the setting change is a specific game state, The data indicating the state is maintained, and after the setting change, when the data indicating the specific gaming state is set, the data indicating the specific gaming state is initialized at that time and the gaming state is set again. When the setting is changed in a specific gaming state, to initialize the gaming state after the change, the data initialized after the change, that is, the data that is not required after the setting change is maintained. It was necessary to keep.

  In contrast, in the present embodiment, when the setting is changed, the data before the change is maintained for the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games, while the value before the setting change is initially set for the game state flag. Since it is updated to a value indicating the normal gaming state, only the probability of the internal lottery specified by the RT flag and the number of remaining games can be taken over even after the setting change, and the internal specified by the gaming state flag The probability of the lottery can be initialized by changing the setting. Then, when a value indicating a specific gaming state (a value indicating internal or BB (RB)) is set as the gaming state flag, the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games are initialized and specified as the gaming state flag. When the value indicating the gaming state is set, the lottery is performed using only the lottery table specified from the gaming state flag without using the lottery table specified from the RT flag in the internal lottery. If the setting is changed while the gaming state flag indicating the specific gaming state is set, the gaming state flag, the RT flag, and the number of remaining RT games are initialized after the setting is changed. Therefore, only the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games are maintained even after the setting is changed, and the gaming state indicating a specific gaming state is maintained. If the setting is changed while the lag is set, the game state flag is also maintained without holding data that is not used after the setting change as in the past, that is, data that is not required. The RT flag can also be initialized.

  In addition, when the setting is changed in a state in which a gaming state flag indicating a specific gaming state is set, after the setting change, in addition to the gaming state flag and the RT flag, the number of remaining RT games is also initialized. Therefore, when a setting change is made in a state in which a gaming state flag indicating a specific gaming state is set, regardless of the number of games since the gaming state flag is set, Since all of the same state, that is, the gaming state flag, the RT flag, and the RT remaining number of games are initialized, there is no unfairness to the player depending on the timing of the setting change. Fairness can be ensured.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the internal lottery is performed, the gaming state flag is first referred to, and only when the gaming state flag indicates a gaming state other than the specific gaming state, the lottery table is selected with reference to the RT flag. When the game state flag indicates a specific game state, a lottery table used for the specific game state is selected without referring to the RT flag and a lottery is performed. For this reason, after referring to the RT flag and then referring to the gaming state flag, if it is determined that the gaming state flag is a gaming state flag indicating a specific gaming state, a lottery table corresponding to the gaming state flag is displayed. However, the process of referring to the RT flag is wasted, but the RT flag is set only when the gaming state flag is first referred to and the gaming state flag indicates a gaming state other than the specific gaming state as in this embodiment. By selecting the lottery table with reference, it is possible to omit the process of referring to the RT flag that does not affect the lottery table when the game state flag indicating a specific game state is set.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the game state flag indicating the internal state 1 or 2, that is, the state where the special combination is won, is set as the specific game state, the RT flag and the RT remaining game number are initialized. When the game state flag indicating the inside 1 or 2 is set, the lottery is performed using only the lottery table specified from the game state flag without using the lottery table specified from the RT flag in the internal lottery. So, if the special role is won, the game state flag and RT flag will be initialized only by changing the setting, so if the game store closes while the special role win is carried over If you want to initialize the state where the special role is elected and also want to initialize the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games, you only need to change the settings. Work can be efficiently carried out for the winning of the special role to end the state that has been carried over as ready to welcome a person.

  In this embodiment, the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games are initialized even when RB or BB (RB) as a specific gaming state, that is, a gaming state flag indicating a bonus advantageous to the player is set. When the game state flag indicating RB or BB (RB) is set, the lottery specified from the game state flag is not used in the internal lottery without using the lottery table specified from the RT flag. Since the lottery is performed using only the table, only the setting is changed in RB and BB (RB), and the game state flag and the RT flag are initialized, so that the game is being played during RB or BB (RB). When the store is closed, RB and BB (RB) are initialized, and the RT flag and the number of remaining RT games are also initialized. Mutame can be performed RB in preparation to welcome the player until the next morning opening, the work for finishing the BB (RB) efficiently.

  In the present embodiment, when the RB or BB (RB) ends, that is, when a specific gaming state ends, the RT flag indicating RT4 different from the RT flag when initializing the RT flag, that is, the RT flag indicating RT0 is set. Different RT flag states can be set depending on whether the setting is changed in a specific gaming state or the setting is changed after the end of the specific gaming state. In other words, when a store is closed in a specific gaming state, the game store can select whether to change the setting while maintaining the specific gaming state or to change the setting after the specific gaming state is ended. It is possible to select whether the RT state is RT0 or RT4.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the setting is changed in a specific gaming state among RT0 to RT4 constituting the normal gaming state, the expected number of games until the transition to another gaming state or another RT (average game) Therefore, when the setting is changed in a specific gaming state, it is possible to change to another gaming state or RT with a small number of games, and RT0 in the normal gaming state. The game store can easily select whether to change the game state to another game state or RT.

  In addition, among RT0 to RT4 constituting the normal gaming state, RT0 in the normal gaming state that shifts when the setting is changed in a specific gaming state is a different gaming state or other RT regardless of the number of games after the transition. Since there is no need to select the number of RT games to be transferred when changing settings, there is no need to select another game state or other RT until the specified number of games is consumed. When the setting is changed in the gaming state, it is possible to prevent the gaming store from being restricted from changing to another gaming state or RT. Furthermore, among RT0 to RT4 constituting the normal gaming state, RT0 in the normal gaming state that shifts when the setting is changed in the specific gaming state, that is, RT that shifts simultaneously when shifting to the specific gaming state is the number of games. When the setting is changed in a state in which a gaming state flag indicating a specific gaming state is set, the RT0 after the setting is changed regardless of the number of games since the gaming state flag is set. Since the conditions for shifting from one RT to another do not change depending on the state before the setting change, it will not be unfair to the player depending on the timing of the setting change, so that the fairness of the game can be ensured. it can.

  In this embodiment, when the internal lottery is performed, the gaming state flag is first referred to, and only when the gaming state flag indicates a gaming state other than the specific gaming state, the lottery table is selected with reference to the RT flag. When the gaming state flag indicates a specific gaming state, the lottery table used for the specific gaming state is selected without referring to the RT flag, that is, the lottery table is selected, that is, the gaming state flag is referenced with priority. The RT flag is referenced only when necessary, but a lottery table used for internal lottery may be specified using both the gaming state flag value and the RT flag value.

  The sub-control unit 91 performs an AT lottery to determine whether or not to control the AT by executing an AT lottery process. In the AT lottery process, it is determined whether or not a predetermined lottery condition is satisfied based on a command from the main control unit 41, and the AT lottery is executed when the predetermined lottery condition is satisfied. In the AT lottery, it is determined whether to give the number of navigation stocks and how much the number of navigation stocks is given. This AT lottery corresponds to a privilege grant lottery for granting a privilege. In the privilege grant lottery in the present embodiment, an example in which a lottery for determining whether or not to grant a privilege and a lottery for determining the advantage level of the privilege to be granted are performed in one lottery will be described. Is not limited to this, for example, a first lottery for determining whether or not a privilege is to be granted is performed, and a first advantage for determining a benefit level of a privilege to be granted when it is determined to grant a privilege by the first lottery. It may be constituted by two lotteries such as two lotteries.

  The number of navigation stocks indicates a period during which the AT can be controlled. By consuming (subtracting) the number of navigation stock by 1, it is controlled by AT for a predetermined number of games (30G, 50G, 70G, 90G, 111G, 222G, 333G, 555G in this embodiment), during which the navigation effect is executed. Is done. For this reason, it can be said that the greater the determined number of navigation stocks, the higher the degree of advantage for the player because the AT is controlled over a longer period.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining an example of a lottery condition that triggers the AT lottery. FIG. 19 is a diagram for explaining an example of a table referred to in the AT lottery.

  The AT lottery condition is satisfied when a cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) or SP replay is won at RT0 to RT4.

  Normal / RT0 to 4 and when the lottery mode is the normal mode (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) or when the SP replay is won and the AT lottery condition is satisfied, the table shown in FIG. AT lottery is performed with reference to FIG. The sub-control unit 91 specifies, for example, normal / RT0 to 4 based on the gaming state command from the main control unit 41, for example, cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) based on the internal winning command or Specify that you won the SP replay. In addition, the sub control unit 91 specifies that the lottery mode is the normal mode based on the value of the lottery mode flag set in the RAM 91c.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19A is referred to, if the winning combination is a weak cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 0 at a rate of 95%, and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at a rate of 5%. Thus, the AT lottery is performed, and the expected number of Navi stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is 0.05 (= 0 × 95% + 1 × 5%).

  When the table shown in FIG. 19A is referenced, if the winning combination is a strong cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 0 at a rate of 70%, and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at a rate of 20%. At the rate of 8%, the number of navigation stocks will be determined to be 2, and the number of navigation stocks will be determined to be 3% at the rate of 2%. The number of expected navigation stocks to be obtained is configured to be 0.42 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 8% + 3 × 2%) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19 (a) is referred to, if the winning combination is a middle cherry or SP replay, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at a rate of 70%, and the number of navigation stocks is 2 at a rate of 20%. AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 10%, and the expected number of navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is the number of navigation stocks × The sum of the winning rates is 1.4 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 8% + 3 × 2%).

  Normally, when RT0 to RT4 and the lottery mode is the high probability A mode, when the cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) or SP replay is won and the AT lottery condition is satisfied, FIG. 19 (b) The AT lottery is performed with reference to the table shown in FIG. The sub-control unit 91 specifies, for example, normal / RT0 to 4 based on the gaming state command from the main control unit 41, for example, cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) based on the internal winning command or Specify that you won the SP replay. Further, the sub-control unit 91 specifies that the lottery mode is the high probability A mode based on the value of the lottery mode flag set in the RAM 91c.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19B is referenced, if the winning combination is a weak cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 0 at a rate of 70%, and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at a rate of 20%. At the rate of 8%, the number of navigation stocks will be determined to be 2, and the number of navigation stocks will be determined to be 3% at the rate of 2%. The number of expected navigation stocks to be obtained is configured to be 0.42 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 8% + 3 × 2%) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19B is referenced, if the winning combination is a strong cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at 70% and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 2 at 20%. AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 10%, and the expected number of navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is the number of navigation stocks × winning rate From the sum, it is configured to be 1.4 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 8% + 3 × 2%).

  When the table shown in FIG. 19B is referred to, if the winning combination is a middle-stage cherry or SP replay, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 2 at a rate of 80%, and the number of navigation stocks is 3 at a rate of 20%. As shown, the AT lottery is performed, and the expected number of Navi stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is 2.2 (= 2 × 80 % + 3 × 20%).

  When normal / RT 0 to 4 and the lottery mode is the high probability B mode, when the cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) or SP replay is won and the AT lottery condition is satisfied, FIG. 19 (c) The AT lottery is performed with reference to the table shown in FIG. The sub-control unit 91 specifies, for example, normal / RT0 to 4 based on the gaming state command from the main control unit 41, for example, cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry) based on the internal winning command or Specify that you won the SP replay. Further, the sub-control unit 91 specifies that the lottery mode is the high probability B mode based on the value of the lottery mode flag set in the RAM 91c.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19C is referenced, if the winning combination is a weak cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at a rate of 80%, and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 2 at a rate of 15%. The number of Navistock is determined to be 3 at a rate of 2%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 4 at a rate of 1%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 5 at a rate of 1%, and the rate is 0.2% The number of Navistock is determined as 7, the number of Navistock is determined as 9 at the rate of 0.2%, the number of Navistock is determined as 11 at the rate of 0.2%, and the Navistock is determined as the rate of 0.2% The number is determined to be 15, and the AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 20 at a rate of 0.2%, and the expected number of Navistocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is , 1.374 (= 1x70) from the sum of Navistock x winning rate % + 2 × 15% + 3 × 2% + 4 × 1% + 5 × 1% + 7 × 0.2% + 9 × 0.2% + 11 × 0.2% + 15 × 0.2% + 20 × 0.2%) It is configured as follows.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19 (c) is referred to, if the winning combination is a strong cherry, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 2 at a rate of 80%, and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 10%. The number of Navistock is determined to be 4 at the rate of 3%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 5 at the rate of 2%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 7 at the rate of 1%, and the Navistock is determined at the rate of 1% The number is determined to be 9, the number of Navistock is determined to be 11 at a rate of 1%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 15 at the rate of 1%, and the number of Navistock is determined to be 20 at the rate of 1% In addition, an AT lottery is performed, and the expected number of Navi stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is 2.74 (= 2 × 80% + 3 × 10%) + 4 × 3% + 5 × 2% + 7 × 1% + 9 × 1% + 11 × 1% + 15 × 1% + 20 × 1%).

  When the table shown in FIG. 19 (c) is referred to, RT0, 1, 4 are used, and if the winning combination is a middle tier cherry or SP replay, the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 76%, and 4% The number of Navistock is determined to be 4 at the rate of 4%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 5 at the rate of 4%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 7 at the rate of 4%, and the number of Navistock is 9 at the rate of 4% AT, so that the number of Navistock is determined to be 11 at a rate of 4%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 15 at a rate of 2%, and the number of Navistock is determined to be 20 at a rate of 2%. The number of expected navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in a single AT lottery is 4.42 (= 3 × 76% + 4 × 4% + 5 × 4) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate % + 7 × 4% + 9 × 4% + 11 × 4% + 15 × 2% + 2 0 × 2%).

  If the table shown in FIG. 19 (c) is referred to, RT2 and RT3, and if the winning combination is SP replay, the navigation stock number is determined to be 1 at a rate of 80%, and the navigation stock is at a rate of 15%.

The expected number of Navi stocks to be obtained is the sum of Navi stock number x winning rate. .21 (= 1 × 70% + 2 × 10% + 3 × 8% + 4 × 2% + 5 × 2% + 7 × 2% + 9 × 2% + 11 × 2% + 15 × 1% + 20 × 1%) Has been.

  As described above, when the normal / RT0 to RT4 and the lottery mode is the high probability A mode, it is possible to expect a larger number of navigation stocks than the normal mode. Furthermore, when the lottery mode is the high probability B mode, it is possible to expect a larger number of navigation stocks than the normal mode and the high probability A mode.

Returning to FIG. 18, the AT lottery condition is satisfied at the end of the BB.
When the AT lottery condition is satisfied by the end of BB, the AT lottery is performed with reference to the table shown in FIG. The sub-control unit 91 specifies the end of BB based on, for example, a game state command from the main control unit 41.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19D is referred to, at the end of BB1 to BB3 (at the end of BB accompanying the winning of BB1 to BB3), the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 0 at a rate of 70%. The AT lottery was held so that the number of Navistock was determined to be 1 at 20%, the number of Navistock was determined to be 2 at 5%, and the number of Navistock was determined to be 3 at 5%. The expected number of Navi stocks that can be expected in one AT lottery is 0.45 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 5% + 3 × 5) from the sum of Navistock number × winning rate %).

  When the table shown in FIG. 19D is referred to, at the end of BB4 (at the end of BB accompanying the winning of BB4), the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 100%. A lottery is performed, and the number of expected navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is configured to be 3 (= 3 × 100%) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate .

  As described above, at the end of BB1 to BB3, the winning of navigation stock can be expected, while at the end of BB4, the winning of three navigation stocks is confirmed.

Returning to FIG. 18, the AT lottery condition is satisfied at the end of RB (excluding RB in BB).
When the AT lottery condition is satisfied by the end of the RB, the AT lottery is performed with reference to the table shown in FIG. The sub-control unit 91 specifies the end of the RB based on, for example, a game state command from the main control unit 41.

  When the table shown in FIG. 19 (e) is referred to, AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined at a winning rate corresponding to the number of winning / losing points described later given during RB.

  Specifically, at 0 to 7 points, the AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 0 at 95% and the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 1 at 5%. The number of expected navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained by lottery is configured to be 0.05 (= 0 × 95% + 1 × 5%) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate.

  In 8-15 points, the number of Navistock is determined to be 0 at a rate of 70%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 1 at a rate of 20%, and the number of Navistock is determined to be 2 at a rate of 8%. The AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at the ratio of, and the expected number of navigation stocks that can be expected to be acquired in one AT lottery is calculated from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × the winning rate It is configured to be 0.42 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2 × 8% + 3 × 2%).

  At 16-23 points, the number of Navistock is determined to be 1 at 70%, the number of Navistock is determined to be 2 at 20%, and the number of Navistock is determined to be 3 at 10%. The number of expected navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is 1.4 (= 0 × 70% + 1 × 20% + 2) from the sum of the number of navigation stocks × winning rate × 8% + 3 × 2%).

  At 24-31 points, the AT lottery is performed so that the navigation stock number is determined to be 2 at 80% and the navigation stock number is determined to be 3 at 20%. The number of expected navigation stocks that can be expected to be configured is 2.2 (= 2 × 80% + 3 × 20%), based on the sum of the number of navigation stocks × the winning rate.

  At 32 points or more, an AT lottery is performed so that the number of navigation stocks is determined to be 3 at a rate of 100%, and the expected number of navigation stocks that can be expected to be obtained in one AT lottery is the number of navigation stocks. X It is configured to be 3 (= 3 x 100%) from the sum of the winning rates.

  As described above, at the end of the RB, the expected value of the winning number of the navigation stock differs depending on the number of winning / losing points acquired during the RB, and the more the winning / losing point number, the more winning the number of navigation stocks can be expected. In particular, if you win 16 or more points, you will win 1 or more Navi stocks. If you win 32 or more points, you will win 3 or more Navi stocks. Is confirmed.

  The sub-control unit 91 produces an effect called “Janken Chance” in each game during the RB. The janken chance is determined by janken according to the winning combination of the game and the first stop reel selected by the player, and the aforementioned winning / losing points are given according to the result.

  FIG. 20 (a) is a diagram showing the relationship between the winning combination, stop order and win / loss in Janken chance, and FIG. 20 (b) is a diagram showing the number of win / loss points given according to the opponent, FIG. 20C is a diagram showing display contents according to the result of winning or losing.

  The sub-control unit 91 first performs an opponent selection lottery for selecting an opponent at the start of the game when a chance is played. The opponent consists of A and B. As shown in FIG. 20 (b), when B is selected rather than when A is selected as the opponent, it is given in the case of winning and a draw A lot of winning and losing points are set.

  When the opponent is determined, as shown in the selection screen of FIG. 21, the opponent is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. When the winning combination is RB bells 1 to 3, "GO" corresponding to the left reel is displayed. “Choki” corresponding to the middle reel and “Par” corresponding to the right reel are displayed as ally cards.

  Then, according to the winning combination and the first stop reel selected by the player, as shown in the decision screen of FIG. 21, the selected friendly card is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and when all the reels are stopped, If the opponent's card is displayed, the player wins if the ally card wins, the win screen of FIG. 21 is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and if the ally card and the opponent's card are the same, it becomes a draw, The draw screen of FIG. 21 is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and if the ally card is lost, the player loses, and the losing screen of FIG.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 20A, if the RB bell 1 is elected and the first stop is the left reel, the win is won, and if the first stop is the middle reel, the draw is made and the first stop is made. If it is a right reel, it is determined to lose.

  Also, if RB Bell 2 is elected and the first stop is the left reel, it will be lost, if the first stop is the middle reel, it will be won, and if the first stop is the right reel, it will be a draw. It has been established.

  Also, if RB Bell 3 is elected and the first stop is the left reel, it will be a draw, if the first stop is the middle reel, it will be lost, and if the first stop is the right reel, it will be won. It has been established.

  As described above, when the RB bell 1 is won and the stop operation is performed by pressing the left button, the combination of the right rising bells of the selected small roles is controlled to be aligned with the winning line LN, and the control is performed by pressing the middle button or the right button. When the stop operation is performed by pressing, the control is performed so that the combination of the right rising rivets is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the RB bell 2 is selected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle, the selected small Control is performed so that the combination of right-up bells in the winning combination is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped, and when a stop operation is performed by left-pressing, the control is performed to align the combination of right-up bevels on the winning line LN and stop When a stop operation is performed by pressing the right button, control is performed so that the combination of the upwardly moving ribs is aligned with the winning line LN, and the RB bell 3 is elected and the right When the stop operation is performed, control is performed so that the combination of right-up bells among the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. Control is performed so that the combination of bevels is stopped on the winning line LN.

  Therefore, in Janken Chance, when the bells are aligned to the right, the teammates win, the bells are not aligned to the right, and “Bell-Bell-Replay / Plum” or “Replay / Plum-Bell” are to the right. -If you have a combination of "bells", you will draw or lose an ally card. That is, the combination of symbols stopped on the reel is linked to the winning or losing chance of the Janken chance in the liquid crystal display 51, and it is possible to recognize that the winning or losing is determined by the stopping order selected by the user.

  Further, when the winning combination is not RB1 to RB3 but all roles or is out of play, that is, when no winning combination is selected, when the opponent is determined, the opponent is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. “Go” is displayed as a friendly card corresponding to each of the left reel, the middle reel, and the right reel. In this case, “Choki” is always displayed as the opponent's card, and the team always wins. At this time, if the winning combination is all roles, the bells will always be aligned to the right, and if they are off, none of the combinations will be aligned to the winning line LN. -Black 7 "combination is ready.

  As described above, the number of winning / losing points given when the teammate card wins differs depending on the opponent selected at the start of the game. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20B, when the opponent is won, 4 points are awarded if the opponent is A, and 8 points are awarded if the opponent is B. In the case of a draw, if the opponent is A, 1 point is awarded, and if the opponent is B, 2 points are awarded. In the case of losing, no winning or losing points are awarded regardless of whether the opponent is A or B.

  In addition, when winning all roles, not only 4 points (8 points if the opponent is B) associated with winning, but also + α is 1 to 4 points (2, 4, 6, 8 if the opponent is B) One of the points). These points are allocated equally. Furthermore, in the case of losing, in addition to 16 points, 1 to 4 points (any of 4, 8, 12, 16 if the opponent is B) are given as + α. These points are allocated equally.

  As mentioned above, in the AT lottery at the end of the RB, winning of one or more Navistock will be confirmed with 16 points or more, so one or more will be won by winning 4 or more opponents or pulling out. The winning of Navistock will be confirmed.

  In addition, as described above, when the opponent is B, more wins / loss points are awarded in the case of winning or in the draw than in the case of A.

  FIG. 20D is a diagram showing a table referred to in the opponent selection lottery. In this table, for each game in the RB, when B has not yet been selected, B has already been selected. The probability that B will be selected is determined for both cases.

  As shown in FIG. 20 (d), when B is not yet selected, the probability that B will be selected in the 1G is 10%, the probability that B is selected in the 2G is 15%, and the probability that the B is selected in the 3G The probability that B is selected is 20%, the probability that B is selected in 4G is 25%, the probability that B is selected in 5G is 30%, and the probability that B is selected in 6G is 35% . Further, when B is already selected, the probability that B is selected in any of the 2nd to 6th G is 50%.

  In this way, in the opponent selection lottery, the closer to the end of the RB, the higher the probability that B will be selected as the opponent, so even if you have not gained much victory or defeat points at the beginning of the RB, Since it can be expected that more winning / losing points can be obtained, even in such a case, it can be expected to win Navistock.

  In addition, once B is selected as the opponent in the opponent selection lottery, since the ratio of B being selected increases from the next time onward, more wins / loss points can be expected thereafter.

  In this embodiment, the opponent selection lottery is performed in each game of RB, the opponent is determined, and the number of winning / losing points varies according to the result, but the winning / losing points are uniformly determined. It may be a configuration. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which selects the opponent about all the games at the time of the start of RB, makes it the opponent selected at the time of start in each game, and is given a win / loss point according to it.

  In the present embodiment, either winning, drawing or losing is determined according to the operation mode selected by the player, but either winning or losing may be determined. If it is such a structure, it is good also as a structure which gives a point when winning and does not give a point when losing.

  The liquid crystal display 51 displays a winning / losing history of Janken chance over the period of RB, and a winning count number indicating the winning expectation degree of Navistock according to the result of Janken chance.

  In the game history of Janken Chance, “X” is displayed corresponding to the losing game, “△” is displayed corresponding to the draw game, “◯” is displayed corresponding to the game winning “A”, and the game winning “B”. ◎ is displayed corresponding to, and the symbol “7” is displayed corresponding to the missed game.

  The winning count is +0 when losing a chance, +1 when winning, +1 when winning A, +2 when winning B, and +4 when losing. As mentioned above, 4 points will be awarded if you win A, 8 points will be awarded if you win B, 16 points will be awarded if you lose, and one or more navigation stocks will be won if you win more than 16 points. Since the winning count is 4 or more, winning of one or more navigation stocks is confirmed. On the other hand, even if the winning / losing point is less than 16 points, the winning of the Navistock can be expected. Therefore, even if the winning counter is less than 4 at the end of the RB, the winning of the Navistock can be expected.

  Also, in this embodiment, when the bells are aligned to the right at the Janken chance, the teammate wins, the bells are not aligned to the right, and “Bell-Bell-Replay / Plum” or “Replay” is increased to the right. If the combination of "/ Plum-Bell-Bell" is complete, the teammate will draw or lose. That is, the combination of symbols stopped on the reel is linked to the winning or losing chance of the Janken chance in the liquid crystal display 51, and it can be recognized that the winning or losing is determined by the operation mode selected by itself. It is possible to easily recognize whether an operation is performed in an operation mode in which the player is determined to win.

  In this embodiment, when the bells are aligned to the right, the teammates win, the bells are not aligned to the right, and “bell-bell-replay / plum” or “replay / plum-bell” are aligned to the right. If the combination of “-bell” is complete, the team will draw or lose the friendly card. For example, if the RB bell 1 is won and the left reel is the first stop reel, In the case where the combination of “bell-bell-bell” is aligned, but the first reel other than the left reel is used, control is performed so that the combination of “bell-bell-bell” is aligned on the invalid line. When Bell 2 is elected and the middle reel is the first stop reel, the combination of “Bell-Bell-Bell” is aligned on the winning line, while when the other reel is the first stop reel. Is disabled When the RB bell 3 is elected and the right reel is the first stop reel, the combination of “bell-bell-bell” is included in the winning line. In contrast, when the reels other than the right reel are the first stop reels, the first line among the plurality of lines is controlled by controlling the combination of “bell-bell-bell” in the invalid line. When the “Bell-Bell-Bell” combination is aligned on the line (winning line), the teammate wins and the first line (winning line) does not have the “Bell-Bell-Bell” combination. When the combination of “bell-bell-bell” is arranged on the second line (invalid line), it is possible to draw or lose a teammate card. Stopped design Combined with the outcome of Janken opportunities in the liquid crystal display device 51 is controlled so as to link, it is possible to recognize that the winner by its own selected operation mode is determined. It is possible to easily recognize whether an operation is performed in an operation mode in which the player is determined to win.

  Further, in this embodiment, the combination of symbols stopped on the reel and the winning / losing chance of the janken chance in the liquid crystal display 51 are linked, but the display result of the liquid crystal display 51, that is, regardless of the stop mode of the reel, A configuration in which winning or losing of the Janken chance is notified only by the production mode by the production device may be used.

  In this embodiment, the number of navigation stocks is determined at the winning rate corresponding to the number of winning / losing points given during the RB at the end of the RB. A configuration in which AT lottery is performed at a winning rate according to the cumulative number of winning and losing points, and the number of navigation stocks is determined. For example, if 4 points are acquired in the 1G, the probability corresponding to 4 points in the 1G When AT lottery is performed and 8 points are obtained in the 2G, the AT lottery may be configured with a probability corresponding to 12 points obtained by adding 4 points and 8 points in the 2G. By doing so, it is possible to effectively increase the willingness to win points in the janken game. In addition, once 16 or more winning or losing points for winning one or more Navistocks are acquired, an AT lottery is performed with a probability corresponding to 16 or more winning or losing points. Since the winning of one or more navistocks is confirmed in, the expectation that a large amount of navistock will win can be effectively increased.

  As described above, in this embodiment, whether or not the lottery condition is satisfied is determined by the AT lottery process performed by the sub-control unit 91. When the lottery condition is satisfied, the AT lottery is performed.

  When the number of navigation stocks of 1 or more is determined in the AT lottery, the sub-control unit 91 stores an AT flag indicating the AT and the number of navigation stocks in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c. Based on the AT flag in the RAM 91c, the sub-control unit 91 specifies whether or not to control to AT, and specifies the remaining number of navigation stocks. When the AT flag indicating AT is set, it is possible to control the AT by consuming one navigation stock number.

  When the number of navigation stocks is acquired when the AT flag indicating AT is set, the number of navigation stocks acquired this time is added to the number of navigation stocks specified from the AT flag.

  For example, when the AT lottery is performed when the AT flag indicating that the AT is set, the AT flag corresponding to the result of the AT lottery is updated. Updating to the AT flag corresponding to the AT lottery result is, for example, adding the number of navigation stocks corresponding to the result of the current AT lottery to the number of navigation stocks specified from the AT flag stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c. It may be possible to rewrite the number of navigation stocks to an AT flag that specifies the number of navigation stocks, and any method may be used as long as the current AT flag according to the result of the AT lottery can be specified.

  The sub-control unit 91 performs control to the AT based on the AT flag set according to the result of the AT lottery by performing the AT management process included in the AT control process when normal is RT1 to RT4. to manage.

  Specifically, the sub-control unit 91 controls to AT when the AT flag is specified from the AT flag in normal / RT1. That is, when navigation stock remains, AT control is started. In the period from normal / RT1 to normal / RT0, the navigation effect can be executed under the control of the AT without consuming (subtracting) the number of navigation stocks.

  When it is controlled by AT and when it is controlled from normal / RT1 to normal / RT0, or when a predetermined number of games have elapsed in normal / RT0 or normal / RT2, the number of navigation stock is consumed (subtracted) by one. Until the start condition for the AT is established and the navigation effect of a predetermined number of games (in this embodiment, the number of games won in the game number lottery described later, N games in the figure) is executed. It controls to ART which is RT and AT with high winning probability. When the number of navigation stock is consumed, it is updated to the AT flag indicating the number of navigation stock subtracted by 1.

  When the sub-control unit 91 consumes 1 navigation stock in the AT management process, that is, when a transition from normal / RT1 to normal / RT0 or when a predetermined number of games have elapsed in normal / RT0 or normal / RT2, The number-of-games lottery for determining the number of games for which the navigation effect is executed is executed.

  The number-of-games lottery is to determine the number of games of 30G, 50G, 70G, 90G, 111G, 222G, 333G, and 555G by lottery, and is performed with reference to Tables 1 to 4 shown in FIG. When table 1 is referenced, the average number of games selected is about 40G. When table 2 is referenced, the average number of games selected is about 45G. When table 3 is referenced, the average number selected. The number of games is about 50G, and when the table 4 is referenced, the average number of games selected is determined to be about 60G.

  These tables 1 to 4 are transferred to a table having a larger average number of games by winning a table transfer lottery. As a trigger for the table transfer lottery, even if the navigation stock remains in the AT, the latent lottery is won and the navigation effect is not executed. There are cases where a prize has been won more than a certain number of times. Then, these tables are transferred to a table with a small average number of games when, for example, the transition outcomes are complete in a state where RT4 and no navigation stock remain.

  In addition, the sub-control unit 91 consumes one navigation stock, and executes a game number notification effect for notifying the determined number of AT games when the number of AT games is determined by the number-of-games lottery. In the game number notification effect, when one navigation stock is consumed, the player is prompted to operate the effect switch 56, and the effect is to notify the number of games in response to the operation of the effect switch 56. It is.

  In the game number notification effect, if the number of games won in the game number lottery is 90 or less, the number of games won in response to one operation of the effect switch 56 is notified, and 111 or more If the number of games is won, after 90 games have been informed once, the operation of the effect switch 56 is further urged and finally determined in response to the operation of the effect switch 56 in that state. The number of games played is notified, and the player's expectation can be further enhanced.

  Note that, when the betting number setting operation is performed without operating the effect switch 56 and the game number notification effect is cancelled, the game number is counted while displaying “????” as the game number. Is started, and an effect is struck as to whether or not the AT ends for each number of games that can be won in the game number lottery. For this reason, the player can know the number of AT games accompanying the navigation stock by operating the effect switch 56 at the time of consumption of the navigation stock, and can operate the effect switch 56 without operating the effect switch 56. By canceling the notification effect, it is possible to choose not to know how long it will last until the AT ends and to maintain the expectation until the end.

  The sub-control unit 91 stores the number of games won in the game number lottery in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c. The sub-control unit 91 controls to AT during a period until the number of games in the RAM 91c becomes zero. When the number of games remains and the target role of navigation is won, a navigation effect is executed.

  Further, the sub-control unit 91 performs AT management processing, and controls to non-AT when the remaining number of games is 0 when it is ART. At this time, if the number of navigation stocks indicated by the AT flag is 0, it is updated to the AT flag indicating that it is not AT. In other words, a series of AT termination conditions are satisfied when the AT flag for controlling from AT to non-AT is 0.

  When it is specified from the AT flag when it is controlled to be non-AT that it is not AT, it is not controlled again by the AT and the navigation effect is not executed. As a result, when the normal / RT0 or the normal / RT2 is selected, there is a high possibility that the transition outcomes are aligned, and the possibility of being controlled to the normal / RT1 is increased.
