Description

  The present invention relates to a slot machine capable of generating a predetermined winning according to a display result of a variable display device capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each identifiable.

  A slot machine generally includes a variable display device having a plurality of (usually three) reels having a plurality of types of identification information drawn as identification information on the outer periphery. First, a bet number is determined by a player's BET operation. , And the start operation is performed in a state where the prescribed bet number is set, and the rotation of the reels is started, and the rotation is stopped by operating the stop button provided corresponding to each reel. Then, when all the reels stop rotating, a combination of predetermined winning identification information (for example, 7-7-7, hereinafter referred to as a combination of identification information) is arranged on the winning line. Will occur. That is, the game is advanced by the player's operation. For a winning combination, a small role to which a gaming value such as a medal is given, a replaying role with a replay that can be played without using the gaming value, a transition of the gaming state There are special roles that accompany it.

  This type of slot machine has a replay high probability state in which the probability of occurrence of a replaying role is higher than that in the normal gaming state, a special game state in which the probability of occurrence of a small role is higher than that in the normal gaming state, and a higher replaying probability. It has been proposed that the winning probability of the re-playing role in the re-playing high probability state is inherited even after the transition to the special gaming state, such as when the special role is won and controlled to the special gaming state in the state ( For example, see Patent Document 1).

JP 2009-125234 A

  In the slot machine described in Patent Document 1, for example, even when a special role is won in the replay high probability state and the special game state is entered, it is preferable that the winning probability of the replay role need not be changed. In a configuration in which the number of winnings is applied as a condition for ending the special gaming state, the special gaming state will be ended regardless of whether the small role wins or the re-gamer wins. Occupies a large amount, the value for gaming that can be acquired in the special gaming state will be relatively less than in the case where the number of winnings of the small role occupies a large number. Even after the transition, if the winning probability of the re-gamer in the re-game high probability state is taken over, the interest in the special game state is lowered.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems, and even after the transition to the special gaming state, even if the winning probability of the replaying player in the replaying high probability state is inherited, the interest in the special gaming state is reduced. It is an object of the present invention to provide a slot machine that can prevent this from happening.

In order to solve the above-described problem, a slot machine according to claim 1 of the present invention provides:
The game can be started by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using the gaming value, and a variable display device (reel 2L, 2C, 2R) is a slot machine (slot machine 1) in which one game is finished by deriving the display result and winning can be generated according to the display result derived to the variable display device,
Before a display result is derived to the variable display device, a re-game winning (re-playing game) with a re-play (re-play game) that can be played without using the gaming value and the game A pre-determining means (internal lottery) for determining whether or not to allow a plurality of types of winnings including award winning (small role) accompanied by a grant of value,
Derivation control means (reel stop control) for controlling the variable display device (reels 2L, 2C, 2R) to derive a display result in accordance with a determination result of the prior determination means (internal lottery);
Re-game height determined to allow the occurrence of the re-game prize (re-game player) at a higher rate than the normal game state (RT 1 / general game state) and the normal game state (RT 1 / general game state) Number of times that a winning state has been determined and it is determined that the award winning (small role) is allowed at a higher rate than the probability state (RT3 / general gaming state) and the normal gaming state (RT1 / general gaming state) Gaming state control means (main control unit 41) for controlling a plurality of types of gaming states including a special gaming state (RB) that ends when the game reaches a prescribed number (6 winnings),
Privilege granting means (additional lottery) for granting a privilege (addition of the number of ART games) advantageous to the player;
With
The pre-determining means includes
The special gaming state (RT3 / RB) generated during the high probability state (RT3 / general gaming state) even in the special gaming state (RT1 / RB) occurring during the normal gaming state (RT1 / general gaming state) In the same way, it is decided to allow the occurrence of the award (small role) with the same probability,
In the special gaming state (RT1, RB) that occurred during the normal gaming state (RT1, general gaming state), the re-game winning (replaying role) has the same probability as the normal gaming state (RT1, general gaming state). And decide to allow the occurrence of
In the special game state (RT3 / RB) that occurred during the high replay probability state (RT3 / general game state), the replay prize (with the same probability as the high replay probability state (RT3 / general game state)) ( Replaying role) is allowed to occur,
The derivation control means displays a display result (a combination of re-game players) that generates the re-game winner when it is determined that the re-game winner (re-game player) is allowed to be generated in the special game state (RB). )
When the slot machine is allowed to generate the re-game prize (re-game player) in the special game state (RT 3 / RB) generated during the re-play high probability state (RT 3 / general game state), The advantage related to the provision of the privilege (addition of the number of ART games) is set higher than when the replay winning (re-gamer) is permitted in the re-game high probability state (RT3 / general game state). It is characterized by being.
According to this feature, in the special gaming state that occurs during the replay high probability state, the ratio of the prize-winning out of the number of occurrences of the winning is lower than the special gaming state that occurred during the normal gaming state. The gaming value that increases in the state will be less than the special gaming state that occurred during the normal gaming state, but re-game winnings are allowed in the special gaming state that occurred during the re-probability high probability state. In the replay high probability state, the advantage related to the provision of a privilege advantageous to the player is set higher than when the occurrence of a replay winning is permitted, and the special game is played during the replay high probability state. Even if a situation occurs, when the occurrence of a replay prize is allowed, the advantage related to the provision of a privilege is set higher than when the occurrence of a regame prize is allowed during the replay high probability state. At the same time, since a high percentage of replay prizes are allowed, the chances of increasing the advantage related to the granting of benefits will increase, so a special game state will occur during the replay high probability state, Even when it is determined that the re-game winning is allowed with the same probability as the probability state, it is possible to prevent the interest in the special game state from decreasing.

If it is good. In addition, the CTC 508 may incorporate, for example, an 8-bit programmable counter with 4 channels (PCC0 to PCC3). Each of the programmable counters PCC0 to PCC3 is only required to have its count value updated in response to a signal change of the internal system clock SCLK or occurrence of a timeout in any of the programmable counters PCC0 to PCC3. The CTC 508 resets the start time of the random number generated by the free run counter used for randomly determining the extension time (variable setting time) for extending the security time for each system reset or the random number circuit 509. A free-run counter or the like that is used to randomly determine each time may be included. Alternatively, these free-run counters may be included in an internal circuit of the main control unit 41 different from the CTC 508 such as a backup area of the RAM 507, for example.

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 this 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 507 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. Then, when the setting key switch 37 is turned off, the determined display value (setting value) is stored in the RAM 507 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 507 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. If 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 stack of a RAM 507, which will be described later, and destructive diagnosis data (in this embodiment, 5AH) in which any bit is 1 is stored in the RAM 507, that is, specific data other than 0 is stored. In addition to the storage, the RAM parity adjustment data is calculated so that the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM 507 becomes 0 and stored in the RAM 507. The RAM parity is a value calculated as an exclusive OR of the values stored in each bit of the corresponding area (all areas in this embodiment) of the RAM 507. For this reason, if the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM 507 is 0, the RAM parity adjustment data is 0, and the RAM parity based on the data stored in all areas of the RAM 507 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 507 at the time of activation, regardless of whether the system reset or the user reset, and the value of the data for destructive diagnosis And 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 507 on the condition that the RAM parity is 0 and the value of the data for destruction diagnosis 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 507 is held by the backup power source even in the event of a power failure, and the main control unit 41 determines that the data in the RAM 507 is normal when the power is turned on. In addition, the configuration is such that the control state before power interruption is restored based on the data stored in the RAM 507. However, only the data stored in the RAM 507 that is 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 507 of the main control unit 41 will be described. The storage area of the RAM 507 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 display devices, LED display data, I / O input / output data, game time clock counters, and other data that may be inconvenient to initialize, as well as a game state flag that can specify the game state described below. And a work in which an RT flag capable of specifying an RT type, which will be described later, is stored. The unsaved 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 507 is destroyed at the time of activation. The general work is a work in which data such as a stop control table and a stop symbol are stored. 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 storage area of the RAM 507, 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 does not destroy the data in the RAM 507 when the setting key switch 37 is turned on, when a RAM error occurs, or when the setting key switch 37 is turned off. At the time, when four initialization conditions at the end of one game are satisfied, three types of initializations with different areas initialized according to each initialization condition are performed.

  Initialization 1 is an initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is turned on at the time of startup and transitions to a setting change state, or initialization performed when a RAM abnormality error occurs. In the storage area of the RAM 507, all areas (including the unused area and the unused stack area) except for the important work and the used stack area, that is, the area from the unsaved work to the unused stack area are initialized. The Initialization 2 is an initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is off at the time of startup and the data in the RAM 507 is not destroyed. In the initialization 2, an unsaved work, an unused area, and an unused area are stored. The used stack area is initialized. Initialization 3 is initialization performed at the end of one game. In initialization 3, an unused area and an unused stack area in the storage area of the RAM 507 are initialized.

  In this embodiment, initialization 1 is performed before the change of the setting change state. However, the initialization 1 is performed at the end of the setting change state, or both before the change of 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 game state flag and the RT flag assigned to are held without being initialized.

  The slot machine 1 of this embodiment has a predetermined number of bets that can be set according to the gaming state (3 in any gaming state in this embodiment), 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 this embodiment, the winning line LN is validated by setting a specified number of bets corresponding to the gaming state.

  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 game state, it is necessary to win an internal lottery described later and set a winning flag for the winning combination in the RAM 507.

  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 carried over to the next game. It becomes. However, in the present embodiment, as described later, the winning combination of the special combination is not carried over because the special combination will always win in the game in which the target special combination has been won.

  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 507 is set to the lottery work assigned to the RAM 507. For each combination determined according to the gaming state and RT type, the numerical data stored in the lottery work and the number of determination values for each combination determined according to the gaming state, RT type and setting value Is done according to.

  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, a random number for internal lottery (a numerical value stored in the lottery work) is determined based on the role that is the subject of the internal lottery, the current gaming state, the RT type, and the set value. When the result of the 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 winning combination is set in the internal winning flag storage work assigned to the RAM 507. 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 table creation data stored in the ROM 506A 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 the 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 for each timing when the stop operation is performed. In the present embodiment, a stepping motor that makes one turn at a cycle of 336 steps (0 to 335) is used for the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R. That is, when the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R are driven in 336 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 in the drawing range of up to 4 frames, the control is performed so that the winning combination is stopped. The combination that has not been performed will be controlled to be stopped in a drawing range of a maximum of 4 frames.

  In this embodiment, the special role and the small role are not elected at the same time. However, when the special role and the small role are simultaneously elected in the configuration where the special role and the small role are simultaneously elected, the selected small size is selected. The number of sliding symbols is set so that the winning combination is drawn to the maximum in the range of 4 frames, and the stop operation position where the winning small role cannot be drawn to the winning line in the range of up to 4 frames is selected A stop control table in which the number of sliding frames is determined so as to draw the special combination to the winning line to the maximum within a range of 4 frames may be created to control the reel stop. 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, 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, A control is performed to stop them in a uniform manner, and a winning combination that has not been won will be controlled to be stopped within a 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. In the case where a special combination and a small combination can be withdrawn at the same time, only the small combination is drawn, and the small combination is not aligned on the winning line at the same time as the special combination.

  Also, when a special role and a small role are elected at the same time, priority is given to the control of aligning the special role on the winning line over the small role, and only when the special role cannot be drawn, the small role is placed on the winning line. You may perform control to align.

  Further, in this embodiment, the special role and the re-playing role are not won at the same time, but in the configuration where the special role and the re-playing role are won at the same time, when the special role and the re-playing role are simultaneously won, When the stop operation is performed, it is only necessary to perform control to align the symbols of the re-gamer within a maximum of 4 frames on the winning line. 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.

  Also, in this embodiment, the re-gamer is targeted for internal lottery in both the general game state and the RB, and when the re-game player is won in the RB even when the re-game player is won in the general game state The same control is also performed. That is, when the winning design symbol of the re-gamer falls within the pull-in range, control is performed to stop the re-game character symbol on the winning line. As described above, the symbols constituting the re-gamer are arranged within 5 symbols for each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, that is, with an interval of 4 frames or less, and are always in an arbitrary position within the drawing range of 4 frames. Since it can be stopped, if the re-gamer is elected at the same time, regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R by the player, whether in the general gaming state or RB , You will always win the re-playing role together.

  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. Continuously, on the condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 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 rotation of the reels that have not been continued is continued and the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected.

  In this embodiment, control is performed to stop the display result on the corresponding reel on condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 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.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 measures the game time, which is the time elapsed from the start of the reel rotation every time the reel starts rotating after the game starts. After a game is over, when a specified number of bets are set by inserting medals, etc., and the game start operation is enabled, the reel start of the previous game is started. If the game time that started timing from the time point is equal to or longer than a predetermined restriction time (4.1 seconds in this embodiment), that is, if the predetermined restriction time has elapsed since the reel rotation start time of the previous game, At that time, the reels in the game are started to rotate.

  On the other hand, after the end of one game, when a predetermined number of bets are set by inserting medals, etc., and when the game start operation is enabled, the reel rotation of the previous game is started. If the game time that started timing from the time is less than the predetermined regulation time, that is, if the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the reel rotation start time of the previous game, the reel rotation is not started at that time, It waits until the game time that has started timing from the start of reel rotation of the previous game reaches a predetermined regulation time, and when the predetermined regulation time is reached, rotation of the reel in the game is started.

  That is, when the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the start of reel rotation in the previous game, the main control unit 41 regulates the progress of the game until the predetermined regulation time elapses. The progress of the game is regulated so that the shortest time is not less than a predetermined regulation time.

  In this embodiment, if a predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the start of reel rotation in the previous game, the progress of the game is regulated until the predetermined regulation time has elapsed, so that one game The configuration is such that the progress of the game is regulated so that the shortest time is not less than a predetermined regulation time. If the game time is counted from one timing other than the start of reel rotation in one game (for example, at the end of the game), and a predetermined regulation time has passed by the same one timing in the next game While the game is allowed to proceed, if the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed before the same timing in the next game, the game does not proceed and the predetermined regulation time elapses Until Wait, that it allows progressive game when a predetermined restriction time period has passed, it may be configured to one game shortest time regulates the progress of the game to a predetermined restriction time or more.

  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, RT 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 for notifying whether or not to control the freeze state (control delay state) in the game, and when controlling to the freeze state, the timing and execution time can also be specified. The freeze command is transmitted after the internal winning command is transmitted.

  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 each 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 there is a winning, the type of winning, and the number of medals to be paid out at the winning, and all the reels are stopped and the winning determination is performed. 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 game state command is a command that can specify the game state (general, RB, which will be described later) of the next game, and is transmitted at the end of the game.

  The game state command is a command that can specify the RT type (RT0 to 3) of the next game, and is transmitted after the game state command is transmitted at the end of the game.

  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 a stop state. When a stop command indicating the occurrence of a stop state is transmitted at RT3 and a reset operation is performed and the stop state is released, the stop command is issued. A stop command indicating 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 The data is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91 by being transferred to the transmission data register 561 of 511.

  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 511 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), it is stored in the command buffer and transferred to the serial communication circuit 511 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), transferred to the serial communication circuit 511, and transmitted to the sub-control unit 91. However, when the door command transmission request 2 is set, that is, when transmission of the door command is requested, priority is given to transmission of the door command even if transmission of the operation detection command is requested. Since the operation detection command is transmitted only when the door command transmission request 2 is not set, the door command transmission request 2 and the operation detection command transmission request are both set. In the command transmission process, the door command is transmitted, and the operation detection command is transmitted in the next command transmission process. So that the de is transmitted.

  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. Performs output control of various rendering devices.

  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 terminated. In such a case, by terminating the performance that is being executed, there is an intention to end the game, but the performance continues unnecessarily. 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.

  FIGS. 6 to 9 are diagrams for explaining the types of roles, symbol combinations, and technical matters related to the roles in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment. FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining transition of RT controlled by the main control unit 41, and FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an outline of RT.

  The slot machine in the present embodiment is controlled to a gaming state of either a general gaming state or a regular bonus (hereinafter referred to as RB) with different types of special roles and small roles subject to internal lottery and winning probability of small roles. The Further, as shown in FIG. 10, in addition to the gaming state, control is made to any one of RT0 to RT3 in which the type of re-game player and / or the winning probability of the re-game player are different. The game condition transition condition and the RT transition condition are separately determined, and if one transition condition is satisfied but the other transition condition is not satisfied, the transition condition of the game state and RT is Only the established state will be transferred.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 6, the special combination among the winning combinations will be described. Among the winning combinations, the special combination includes RB.

For this reason, it can be said that, in principle, when an RB is won in an internal lottery to be described later, a winning can be made regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R. In the present embodiment, since the RB is not won at the same time as other roles, any combination of the symbols is always aligned with the winning line LN when the RB is won, and the RB always wins.

  When winning the RB, the medal is not accompanied, but the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the regular bonus (RB). At this time, the RT type does not change. RB is accompanied by a larger number of small roles than in the general gaming state, in particular, more than the number of medals (three) required to set the maximum bet number of 3 required for starting the game. It is a gaming state that is advantageous for the player by increasing the winning probability of small roles (lower right bell, upper watermelon, middle watermelon, right lower watermelon, right upward watermelon). The game is terminated on the condition that 6 games have been consumed, and then the game proceeds to the general game state. At this time, the RT type does not change.

  As shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, the winning probability of the lottery winning combination when it is RB and RT3 is as follows: common bell: 356/65536, left bell 1: 8/65536, left bell 2: 8/65536, Left bell 3: 8/65536, left bell 4: 8/65536, middle bell 1: 1599/65536, middle bell 2: 1599/65536, middle bell 3: 1599/65536, middle bell 4: 1599/65536, right bell 1: 1599/65536, right bell 2: 1599/65536, right bell 3: 1599/65536, right bell 4: 1599/65536, middle cherry: 16/65536, weak cherry: 432/65536, strong cherry: 48/65536 , Weak 1 sheet: 144/65536, strong 1 sheet: 48/65536, weak watermelon: 194/65536, strong watermelon: 29 / 65536, normal replay: 32364/65536, normal + fall replay 1: 10146/65536, normal + fall replay 2: 4000/65536, normal + fall replay 3: 4000/65536, normal + special replay 1: 111/65536, Normal + Special Replay 2: 111/65536, Normal + Special Replay 3: 111/65536, Normal + Special Replay 4: 111/65536, Normal + Special Replay 5: 111/65536, Normal + Special Replay 6: 111/65536 Become.

  As shown in FIG. 14, a common bell is a single right-down bell win, and when a common bell is won, a combination of right-down bells is always available.

  The left bell 1 is a right falling bell + an upper bell 1 + an upper bell 4, the left bell 2 is a right falling bell + an upper bell 2 + an upper bell 3, and the left bell 3 is a right falling bell + an upper bell 6 + upper bell 7) and left bell 4 are lower right bell + upper bell 5 + upper bell 8. The left bells 1 to 4 are also simply called left bells.

  The middle bell 1 is the middle bell + the upper bell 1 + the upper bell 6, the middle bell 2 is the middle bell + the upper bell 2 + the upper bell 5, and the middle bell 3 is the middle bell + the upper bell 3 + the upper bell. The middle bell 4 is the middle bell + the upper bell 4 + the upper bell 7. The middle bells 1 to 4 are also simply called middle bells.

  The right bell 1 is the middle bell + the upper bell 1 + the upper bell 7, the right bell 2 is the middle bell + the upper bell 3 + the upper bell 5, and the right bell 3 is the middle bell + the upper bell 2 + the upper bell. The right bell 4 is the middle bell + the upper bell 4 + the upper bell 6. 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.

  The middle cherry is a single winner of cherry 1.

  The weak cherry is cherry 2 + cherry 3 + 1 sheet 1 + 1 sheet 3 and the strong cherry is cherry 2 + cherry 3 + 1 sheet 2 + 1 sheet 3. At the time of the weak cherry win, the strong cherry win will be “cherry” in the upper or lower tier of the left reel 2L when the left reel is stopped at a timing within the pull-in range of “7c” or “watermelon b”. However, when a weak cherry is won, even if you aim for “cherry” in the middle and right reels 2C and 2R, the invalid line LM3 and LM4 will not have the “cherry-cherry-cherry” combination. When a strong cherry is won, a stop operation is performed aiming at “cherry” in the middle and right reels 2C and 2R, so that “cherry-cherry-cherry” is placed on one of the invalid lines LM3 and LM4. It is controlled to be able to align the combinations of "".

  Therefore, when “Cherry” is stopped on the left, middle, and right reels and “Cherry” is stopped on the upper or lower stage of the left reel, “Cherry-Cherry” is set on one of the invalid lines LM3 and LM4. -It is possible to recognize whether the cherry is a strong cherry or a weak cherry depending on whether the combination of "cherry" is available.

  A weak one is a single winning one, and a strong one is a single two winning. At the time of winning a weak one, it is controlled so that “7b-watermelon b-cherry” constituting each one is aligned, and even if “7b-watermelon b-cherry” is not aligned, in a specific operation mode By performing a stop operation, it is controlled so as to be able to derive a weak chance that can be derived only at the time of winning one weak or strong one, while “7b-watermelon b-” that constitutes one two when winning a strong one “Watermelon b” is controlled to be aligned, and even if “7b-Watermelon b-Watermelon b” is not aligned, a strong chance that can be derived only when a strong one is won by performing a stop operation in a specific operation mode The eye is controlled to be derived.

  For this reason, “7b-watermelon b-cherry” composing one sheet 1 is prepared, or as a result of performing a stop operation in a specific operation mode, a weak chance is derived, so that one weak sheet is won. As a result of the stop operation in a specific operation mode as a result of the “7b-watermelon b-watermelon b” constituting one sheet 1 being prepared, a strong chance eye is derived and Recognize winning.

  The weak watermelon is an upper watermelon + lower right watermelon + rightward watermelon, and the strong watermelon is an upper watermelon + middle watermelon + right lower watermelon + right watermelon. When winning a weak watermelon, even if the combination of “watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b” is stopped in the middle, the left, middle and right reels are stopped. / B-watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b "is controlled so that the combination is aligned to the upper, lower right, or right upward, while when strong watermelon is selected," watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b-watermelon " When the left, middle and right reels are stopped at a timing at which the combination “a / b” can be stopped in the middle stage, the combination “watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b” is in the middle stage. It is controlled to align.

  For this reason, as a result of the stop operation of the left, middle, and right reels at the timing at which the combination of “watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b-watermelon a / b” can be stopped in the middle stage, “watermelon a / b-watermelon” Depending on whether the combination of “a / b-watermelon a / b” is aligned in the upper stage, right-down or right-up, or in the middle stage, it can be recognized whether the winning is a weak watermelon or a strong watermelon.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the normal replay is a single winning of the normal replay 1, and the combination of the normal replay 1 is always prepared when the normal replay is won.

  The special replay is special replay 1 + special replay 2 + special replay 3, and any combination of special replay 1, special replay 2 or special replay 3 is always provided when the special replay is won.

  Fall + promotion replay 1 is promotion replay + fall replay, fall + promotion replay 2 is normal replay 1 + promotion replay + fall replay, fall + promotion replay 3 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2+ promotion Replay + fall replay, fall + promotion replay 4 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 3 + promotion replay + fall replay, and fall + promotion replay 5 is normal replay 1 + promotion replay + fall replay + special replay 1 is there.

  Normal + fall replay 1 is normal replay 1 + fall replay, normal + fall replay 2 is normal replay 1 + fall replay + special replay 1, normal + fall replay 3 is normal replay 1 + fall replay + Special Replay 2.

  Normal + special replay 1 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 1, normal + special replay 2 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + special replay 1, and normal + special replay 3 Normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + promoted replay + special replay 1, normal + special replay 4 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 3, and normal + special replay 5 is Normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 3, normal + special replay 6 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + promotion replay + special replay 3, special replay 7 is normal replay 1 + normal replay 2+ Special Replay 1 + Special Replay 2 + Special Replay 3.

  Thus, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, in the general gaming state, RB is subject to internal lottery regardless of the type of RT, whereas in RB, RB is internal lottery. It becomes out of object. On the other hand, in RB, regardless of the type of RT, in addition to the fact that RB is not the target in comparison with the general gaming state, the probability of winning a small role, especially for starting a game, is reduced as the probability of losing is reduced. Winners of small roles (lower right bell, upper watermelon, middle watermelon, right lower watermelon, right watermelon) with more grants than the number of medals required to set the required number of bets (3) The probability of winning common bells, weak watermelons, and strong watermelons that allow the above is set high.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the type of re-gamer that is the subject of the internal lottery, the winning probability of the re-gamer, etc. vary depending on the type of RT, but if the RT type is the same, It is the same whether it is RB or not.

  In the present embodiment, when a plurality of types of small combinations are won simultaneously, as shown in FIG. 16, the small combinations determined in accordance with the types of the small combinations that are simultaneously selected and the stop operation order are placed on the winning line. Control is performed to stop evenly in the drawing range of up to 4 frames.

  If left bell 1 (lower right bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 4) is selected and left-pressed (stop operation to stop the left reel first), the right hand will be lowered to the right When the combination of bells is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped, and the stop operation is performed by middle pressing (stop operation to stop the middle reel first) or right press (stop operation to stop the right reel first). Performs a control to stop any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 4 or the transition outcome in line with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 2 (lower right bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3) 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 pressing or right pressing, 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 3 (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 falling bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed so 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 4 (lower right bell + upper bell 5 + upper bell 8) wins and the stop operation is performed by pressing 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 pressing or right pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 5, the upper bell 8, or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbol of the right-down bell is 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, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the right lowering bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Even if the left bells 1 to 4 are elected because there are places that are arranged, if the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or right, it becomes 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 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 with the winning line LN is stopped. If the stop operation is performed by pressing left or right, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 6, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 2 (middle bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 5) 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 with the winning line LN is stopped. If a stop operation is performed by 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 3 (middle bell + upper bell 3 + upper bell 8) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, control is performed so that the combination of the middle bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. If a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 3, the upper bell 8, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When middle bell 4 (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 stopped. If a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 4, the upper bell 7, 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 middle bell 1 to 4 is elected, when the stop operation is performed by middle push 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 this case, control is performed so that the shift outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 1 (middle bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 7) 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 1, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 2 (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 1, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 3 (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 4, the upper bell 6, or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 4 (middle bell + upper bell 4 + upper bell 6) 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 4, the upper bell 6, or the transitional 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, when 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 this case, control is performed so that the shift outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when any of the left bell, middle bell, and right bell, that is, the push order bell, is won, the stop operation is performed in the operation mode according to the type of the winning combination, so While the bell or middle bell always wins, the upper bell is aligned at 1/4, but the upper bell is aligned at 3/4 by performing the stop operation in an operation mode other than the operation mode corresponding to the type of winning combination. There are times when 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 the operation is performed according to the type of winning combination. In other words, even if one of the push order bells is won, if the type is not known, a specific operation mode cannot be selected intentionally. Although a medal can be reliably obtained by winning, a medal can be obtained only at a certain rate if the pushing order does not match.

  In this embodiment, when a plurality of types of re-game players are won at the same time, as shown in FIG. 17, 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 line is stopped within a maximum of 4 frames on the line.

  When the fall + promotion replay 1 (promotion replay + fall replay) is elected and a stop operation is performed by pressing the left button, the control of stopping the combination of the promoted replays among the elected replaying players on the winning line LN is stopped. If a stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If a fall + promotion replay 2 (normal replay 1 + promotion replay + fall replay) is won and the stop operation is made in the middle, left, or right order, the combination of promotion 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 left and right, the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If a fall + promotion replay 3 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + promotion replay + fall replay) is won, and a stop operation is made in the middle right / left order, the combination of the promotion replays among the selected re-players is the winning line Control to stop in line with LN is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, control to stop the combination of falling replays in line with winning line LN is performed.

  If the fall + promotion replay 4 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 3 + promotion replay + fall replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of the middle left and right, the combination of the promotion replay among the selected replayers will be the winning line Control to stop in line with LN is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle right and left, control to stop the combination of falling replays in line with winning line LN is performed.

  If a fall + promotion replay 5 (normal replay 1 + promotion replay + fall replay + special replay 1) is won and a stop operation is made in the order of middle right and left, the combination of promotion replays among the selected re-playing players Control to stop in line with the winning line LN is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than right middle left, control to stop the combination of falling replays in line with the winning line LN is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 3, since the symbols constituting the promotion 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 promotion replay or the fall replay always wins.

  Thus, in the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5, different operation modes are set as operation modes for winning the promotion replay.

  For this reason, in RT1 where the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5 are the targets of the internal lottery, any of the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5 wins and matches the operation mode according to the type, so that the promotion replay Wins and moves to RT2.

  When normal + falling replay 1 (normal replay 1 + falling replay) is won and a stop operation is performed by pressing the button to the left, the combination of normal replay 1 among the selected replaying players is matched to the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or right, the control for stopping the combination of falling replays on the winning line LN is performed.

  When normal + falling replay 2 (normal replay 1 + falling replay + special replay 1) is won and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle, the combination of normal replay 1 of the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When normal + falling replay 3 (normal replay 1 + falling replay + special replay 2) is won and a stop operation is made in the order of right push, the combination of normal replay 1 among the winning replay players is the winning line LN If the stop operation is performed in the order of the left press or the middle press, the control for stopping the combination of the fall replays on the winning line LN is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the normal replay 1 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 normal replay 1 or the fall replay always wins.

  Thus, in the normal + falling replays 1 to 3, different operation modes are set as operation modes for avoiding the fall replay.

  Therefore, in RT2 and RT3 where the normal + falling replays 1 to 3 are the targets of the internal lottery, if any of the normal + falling replays 1 to 3 wins, it matches the operation mode for winning the normal replay. Although the transition to RT1 can be avoided, if it does not coincide with the operation mode for winning the normal replay, the fall replay wins and the routine proceeds to RT1.

  If normal + special replay 1 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 1) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left, middle and right, the combination of special replay 1 among the selected replaying roles Is controlled so as to be aligned with the winning line LN, and when the stop operation is performed in an order other than the left middle right, the control is performed so that any combination of normal replays 1 to 3 is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. Do.

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

  If normal + special replay 3 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + promoted replay + special replay 1) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle and left, special replay 1 The control is performed so that the combination of the replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped, and when the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle and left and right, the combination of any one of the normal replays 1 to 3 is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. I do.

  When normal + special replay 4 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 3) is won and the stop operation is made in the middle right / left order, the combination of special replay 3 among the selected replaying players is selected. Control to stop in line with the winning line LN is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, control is performed to align any combination of the normal replays 1 to 3 with the winning line LN and stop.

  When normal + special replay 5 (normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + special replay 3) is won, and the stop operation is performed in the order of right and left, the combination of special replay 3 among the selected replay players is the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle right and left, any combination of the normal replays 2 and 3 is controlled to be aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When normal + special replay 6 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + normal replay 3 + promoted replay + special replay 3) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, the special replay of the selected replay players When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the right middle, left, and right, any combination of normal replays 1 to 3 is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. To control.

  When normal + special replay 7 (normal replay 1 + normal replay 2 + special replay 1 + special replay 2 + special replay 3) is won and a stop operation is performed by left-pressing, special replays 1 to 3 of the selected replaying players Control is performed so that any combination is stopped on the winning line LN, and when a stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or right, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replay 1 is aligned on the winning line LN and stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the special replays 1 to 3 and the normal replays 1 to 3 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. In accordance with the stop operation order, the reel control is performed so that the special replays 1 to 3 or the normal replays 1 to 3 always win regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R.

  Thus, in the normal + special replays 1 to 6, different operation modes are set as operation modes for winning the special replay.

  For this reason, if any of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won in the RT2 where the normal + special replays 1 to 6 are the targets of the internal lottery, if the operation mode matches the operation mode for winning the special replay. A special replay is won, and in particular if RT2 is entered, the process proceeds to RT3, but if they do not match, a normal replay is won.

  In addition, the normal + special replay 7 is subject to internal lottery only at RT1, but in this case, if the stop operation is performed by pressing left, the special replay wins and the process proceeds to RT3. If a stop operation is performed in, the normal replay only wins.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG.

  RT0 shifts after the setting is changed. Then, RT0 is ended by shifting to RT1 due to the stop of the transfer start, regardless of the number of games after shifting to RT0.

  The winning probability of the re-gamer at RT0 is about 1 / 7.3, and the medal payout rate per game when controlled to RT0 in the general gaming state is less than 1. As described above, only the normal replay is the target of the internal lottery as the re-game player, and only the normal replay can be won.

  RT1 shifts when the transition is stopped at RT0, RT2, RT3, or when the fall replay wins at RT2,3. And RT1 is complete | finished by shifting to RT2 when a promotion replay wins, or shifting to RT3 when a special replay wins.

  The winning probability of the re-gamer in RT1 is about 1 / 7.3, and the medal payout rate per game when controlled by RT1 in the general gaming state is less than 1. As described above, normal replays, special replays, fall + promotion replays 1 to 5 and normal + special replays 7 are subject to internal lottery, and normal replays, promotion replays, fall replays, and special replays. Can win.

  RT2 shifts to when the promotion replay wins in RT1 (when any of the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5 is won and a stop operation is performed in the order in which the promotion replay wins). Then, RT2 is terminated by shifting to RT1 when the fall replay is won or when the transition is stopped, or when RT2 is shifted to RT3 when the special replay is won.

  The winning probability of the re-gamer in RT2 is about 1 / 3.06, and the payout rate of medals per game when controlled by RT2 in the general gaming state is less than 1. As described above, normal replay, normal + fall replays 1 to 3 and normal + special replays 1 to 6 are subject to internal lottery, and normal replay, fall replay, and special replay can win. .

  RT3 is when special replay wins at RT1 (special replay wins, or when normal + special replay 7 wins and is stopped by pressing left), or when special replay wins at RT2 (normal + When special replays 1 to 6 are won and stop operation is performed in the order in which special replays win. And RT3 is complete | finished when a fall replay wins or a transfer turn stops and it transfers to RT1.

  The winning probability of the re-gamer in RT3 is about 1 / 1.27, and the medal payout rate per game when controlled by RT03 in the general gaming state is 1 or more. As described above, normal replay, normal + fall replays 1 to 3 and normal + special replays 1 to 6 are subject to internal lottery, and normal replay, fall replay, and special replay can win. .

  In the general gaming state, among RT0 to RT3, RT3 has the highest medal payout rate per game, which is most advantageous for the player.

  Also, in the general gaming state, RT2 out of RT0 to 2 has a higher probability of re-game winning than RT0 and 1, and the medal payout rate per game is higher than RT0 and 1. It can be said that it is more advantageous for the player than RT0 and RT1.

  On the other hand, in RB, the winning probability of the small role is the same in any of RT0 to RT3. Therefore, in RB, RT3 has a medal payout rate per game in RT0 to RT3 as in the general gaming state. Is the highest and most advantageous to the player.

  Similarly, in the RB as well as in the general gaming state, RT2 out of RT0 to 2 has a higher probability of winning the re-gamer than RT0, and the payout rate of medals per game is set to RT0, 1. It can be said that it is more advantageous for the player than RT0 and RT1 in terms of high points.

  In the present embodiment, when the gaming state is RT1 to RT3, the sub-control unit 91 controls the assist time (hereinafter referred to as AT), which is a notification period in which a navigation effect for notifying the internal lottery result can be executed. It is possible.

  Here, the transition state of the gaming state according to the present embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 10, after the setting is changed, the state is first controlled to RT0. At RT0, when the transition point stops, the process proceeds to RT1.

  In RT0, if any of left bell 1-4, middle bell 1-4, right bell 1-4 is elected and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome will stop, Transition to RT1 when any of the left bell 1-4, middle bell 1-4, right bell 1-4 is won and the small role cannot be won in RT3 after the setting change It becomes.

  In RT1, when the promotion replay wins, the process proceeds to RT2. In RT1, a fall + promotion 1-5 is won and the promotion replay wins when the stop order is correct, so in RT1, a fall + promotion 1-5 wins and goes to RT2 by answering in the stop order Will be migrated. In RT1, the special replay is won or the normal + special replay 7 is won and the special replay wins, so that the process proceeds to RT3.

  In RT2, the fall replay wins or the transition is stopped, the process moves to RT1, and the special replay wins, the process moves to RT3.

  In RT2, the normal + fall replays 1 to 3 are won, and the fall replay wins when the stop order is incorrect. In addition, when any one of the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, and the right bell 1 to 4 wins and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. For this reason, in RT2, the normal + falling replays 1 to 3 are won and the stop order is incorrect, or the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, the right bell 1 to 4 are won, If the small role cannot be won, the process proceeds to RT1. On the other hand, in RT2, normal + special replays 1 to 6 are won, and the special replay wins when the stop order is correct. For this reason, in RT2, normal + special replays 1 to 6 are won, and when the stop order is correct, the process proceeds to RT3.

  In RT3, when the fall replay wins or the transitional outcome stops, the process proceeds to RT1. In RT3, normal + fall replays 1 to 3 are won, and the fall replay wins when the stop order is incorrect. In addition, when any one of the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, and the right bell 1 to 4 wins and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. For this reason, in RT3, the normal + fall replays 1 to 3 are won and the stop order is incorrect, or the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, the right bell 1 to 4 are won, If the small role cannot be won, the process proceeds to RT1.

  Whether or not the sub-control unit 91 controls to ART (a state controlled by AT at RT3) when a special replay, middle tier cherry, weak cherry, strong cherry, weak one, strong one, weak watermelon, or strong watermelon is won Navistock lottery to determine whether. In the Navistock lottery at the time of winning special replay, middle tier cherry, weak cherry, strong cherry, weak one, strong one, weak watermelon, strong watermelon, the number of navigation stocks is determined by determining the number of navigation stocks including zero Whether to give or not and how many to give.

  In the present embodiment, the average number of winning Navi stocks in the Navi Stock lottery varies depending on the type of the winning combination.

  The number of navigation stocks indicates the number of rights controlled by ART over a predetermined number of games (in this embodiment, the number of games including the initial number of games and the number of games won in the extra lottery described later). . By consuming (subtracting) the number of navigation stock by 1, the ART is controlled for a predetermined number of games, and a navigation effect is executed during that time. 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.

  If the navigation stock is won when the number of navigation stocks remains, the number of navigation stocks won this time is added to the remaining navigation stocks.

  When the number of navigation stocks of 1 or more is determined in the navigation stock lottery, the sub control unit 91 stores the number of navigation stocks in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c. The sub-control unit 91 specifies whether to control to AT based on the presence / absence of the number of navigation stocks in the RAM 91c. If one or more navigation stock numbers remain, the AT is controlled after an AT confirmation notification indicating AT winning is performed through a predetermined introduction effect.

  The sub-control unit 91 can control to the AT on the condition that the navigation stock remains when it is not controlled by the AT in RT1 to RT3.

  Specifically, the sub-control unit 91 controls to AT when the navigation stock remains in RT1 to RT3 (mainly RT1). During the period from the transition to RT1 to RT3, it is controlled by the AT without consuming (subtracting) the number of navigation stocks, and the navigation effect can be executed. At this time, in RT1, it becomes a target of the navigation effect at the time of winning the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5, and in the navigation effect, the push order for winning the promotion replay at the time of winning the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5 is notified. It is possible to shift from RT1 to RT2 by performing a stop operation in accordance with the notified pressing order.

  Also, during the transition from RT1 to RT2 after the start of the AT control, the push order for winning the bell is notified when the push order bell is won, so that the medal can be surely performed by performing the stop operation according to the notified push order. Can also be obtained.

  In RT2, normal + special replays 1 to 6 are subject to navigation effects, and in the navigation effect, normal + special replays 1 to 6 are won in order to win special replays. It is possible to shift from RT2 to RT3 by performing a stop operation according to the pressing order.

  In addition, during the transition from RT2 to RT3 after the start of the AT control, the push order for avoiding the fall replay is notified during the normal + fall replays 1 to 3, so the stop operation is performed according to the notified push order. Thus, the transition to RT1 can be avoided, and the push order for winning the bell is notified when the push order bell is won, so that the medal can be surely obtained by performing the stop operation according to the notified push order, And the transition to RT1 can be avoided.

  After the start of AT, when the transition is made from RT2 to RT3, ART starts, and the number of navigation stock is consumed (subtracted). When the navigation stock number is consumed by 1, the navigation stock number is decremented by 1.

  After the start of ART, when the normal + fall replays 1 to 3 are won, the push order for avoiding the fall replay is notified, so by performing the stop operation according to the notified push order, the transition to RT1 can be avoided, Since the pushing order for winning the bell is notified when the pushing order bell is won, the stop operation is performed according to the notified pushing order, so that a medal can be surely obtained and the transition to RT1 can be avoided.

  The sub-control unit 91 stores, in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c, the initial number of ART games (50 games in this embodiment) executed by the navigation stock when the navigation stock is consumed, that is, when the navigation stock is shifted from RT2 to RT3. To do. The sub-control unit 91 subtracts 1 from the number of games in the RAM 91c each time one game is consumed, and controls to ART during a period until the remaining number of games becomes zero. When the number of games remains and the target role of navigation is won, a navigation effect is executed.

  In addition, when an additional number of games is won in an additional lottery described later, the number of won games is added to the number of games in the RAM 91c.

  Thereafter, when the number of remaining ART games becomes 0 and no navigation stock remains, the ART is terminated and the non-AT is controlled.

  When controlled to non-AT, the navigation effect is not executed. Thereby, when it is RT3, the possibility that the transition outcomes are aligned increases, and the possibility of transition to RT1 increases.

  If the navigation stock remains, the navigation stock number is consumed (subtracted) by 1, a new initial game number is set, and then the ART is controlled to ART until the remaining game number becomes zero. Thus, the ART is continuously controlled until the number of navigation stocks becomes zero.

  When the sub-control unit 91 is controlled by AT or ART, the sub-control unit 91 performs a navigation effect by winning the navigation target combination corresponding to the gaming state. The navigation target combination corresponding to the gaming state is fall + promotion replay 1-5 when pushing RT, push order bell, and normal + fall replay 1-3, normal + special replay 1-6 when RT2. , Push order bell, and when RT3, normal + fall replays 1 to 3, push order bell.

  As a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replays 1 to 5, the push order (see FIG. 17) for winning the promotion replay according to the winning situation is notified. For example, a message such as “Middle Left / Right!” Or “Middle Left / Right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replay 1. In addition, as a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replay 2, a message such as “middle left and right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, as a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replay 3, a message such as “middle right left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, as a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replay 4, a message such as “middle right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. Further, as a navigation effect when winning the fall + promotion replay 5, a message such as “right middle left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

  As the navigation effect when the normal + fall replays 1 to 3 are won, the push order (see FIG. 17) for winning the promotion replay according to the winning situation is notified. For example, a message such as “middle left right!” Or “middle left right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a navigation effect when the normal + falling replay 1 is won. In addition, as a navigation effect when the normal + falling replay 2 is won, a message such as “middle left and right!” Or “middle right and left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. Further, as a navigation effect when the normal + falling replay 3 is won, a message such as “Middle right!” Or “Middle right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

  As the navigation effect when the normal + special replays 1 to 6 are won, the push order (see FIG. 17) for winning the special replay according to the winning situation is notified. For example, a message such as “left middle right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 1 is won. In addition, as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 2 is won, a message such as “middle left and right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 3 is won, a message such as “middle left and right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. Further, as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 4 is won, a message such as “middle right left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 5 is won, a message such as “middle right!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. Further, as a navigation effect when the normal + special replay 6 is won, a message such as “Right Middle Left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

  Further, as a navigation effect when one of the push order bells is won, a push order (see FIG. 16) for surely winning the right-down bell or the middle bell is notified. For example, when winning the left bell, it is possible to reliably win the right falling bell by stopping the left reel as the first stop reel. Therefore, “left middle right for stopping the left reel as the first stop reel” ! ”Or“ middle right and left! ”Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, when the middle bell is won, the middle bell can be surely won by stopping the middle reel as the first stop reel, so “middle left and right!” For stopping the middle reel as the first stop reel. Alternatively, a message such as “middle right left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, when the right bell is won, the middle bell can be reliably won by stopping the right reel as the first stop reel. Therefore, “middle right” for stopping the right reel as the first stop reel! Alternatively, a message such as “right middle left!” Is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

  As described above, in the navigation effect in the present embodiment, a message reminiscent of an operation mode advantageous to the player is notified in the same mode regardless of the type of the navigation target role. For this reason, the player can operate in an operation mode that is advantageous to the player without being aware of the type of the winning navigation target combination.

  In addition, the aspect of a navigation effect is not restricted to such an aspect, What kind of thing may be sufficient if a player is distinguishable according to a winning condition. In addition, the navigation effect is not limited to what is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and may be executed using the effect effect LED 52, the speakers 53 and 54, the reel LED 55, and the like.

  Then, by executing the navigation effect, it is possible to avoid the promotion replay, the special replay, the bell winning intentionally, the falling replay winning, and the stoppage of the transitional outcome that are intentionally won.

  Next, the flow of control performed by the sub-control unit 91 along with the transition of AT and ART will be described based on FIG.

  The sub-control unit 91 starts the AT control when one or more navigation stocks are won in the navigation stock lottery, and then the special replay wins and the number of navigation stocks shifts from RT2 to RT3. 1 is subtracted, and the initial number of games (50 games in this embodiment) is set as the number of remaining games.

  Thereafter, every time a game is started, the number of continued ART games is incremented by 1 regardless of the game state of the game, and the remaining game number is decremented by 1 only when the game state of the game is the general game state. That is, when the game state of the game is RB, the remaining number of games is maintained.

  Next, whether or not one of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 has been won, the additional role (middle cherry, strong cherry, weak cherry, strong one, weak one, strong watermelon, weak watermelon, normal replay) It is determined whether or not it has been won.

  When any of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during ART, an assist lottery is performed to determine whether or not to notify the stop order for winning the special replay.

  In the assist lottery, the winning probability varies depending on whether the gaming state is the general gaming state or the RB, and in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 19, when the gaming state is the general gaming state, 20% Assist lottery is won so that the stop order for winning the special replay will be announced, and if the gaming state is RB, the stop order for winning the special replay will be won with a probability of 100%. Probability is set. That is, when the game state is RB, the probability of winning the notification of the stop order for winning the special replay is set higher than that in the general game state.

  When the assist lottery is won, the stop order in which the special replay is won is notified before the reel stop operation becomes effective. The notification of the stop order in which the special replay is won may be notified in the same manner as the navigation effect described above, or may be notified in a different manner. Thereby, the player can win a special replay with a probability of 100% by performing the stop operation in the notified stop order.

  On the other hand, if the assist lottery is not won, the fact that the special replay can be won is notified, but the stop order for winning the special replay is not notified, and the stop order is made up of six ways. Only when the stop order selected by the player matches the stop order for winning the special replay, that is, the special replay wins with a probability of 1/6.

  If any of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during the ART and the special replay wins, an extra lottery is performed to determine whether or not to add the remaining number of games of the ART. In the extra lottery, by determining the number of additional games including 0, whether or not to increase the number of ART games, and the number of games to be added are determined. In the extra lottery performed when a special replay is won during ART, as shown in FIG. 20, the winning probability of 100 games is 20%, the winning probability of 150 games is 20%, the winning probability of 200 games is 20%, The winning probability of 250 games is set to 20%, and the winning probability of 300 games is set to 20%, so that an additional number of 100 games or more is always won and an average of 200 games can be expected.

  As described above, in the extra lottery when the special replay is won during ART, since the number of games of 100 games or more is always won, the number of won games is added to the remaining number of games.

  If any of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during ART and the special replay is not won, no additional lottery will be performed and the number of games will not be increased. .

  In addition, when an additional target combination is won during ART, an additional lottery is performed. The winning probability of the number of additional games when the additional target combination is won depends on the type of the additional target combination selected. Further, the winning probability of the number of added games when the normal replay is won among the additional target roles varies depending on whether the game state of the game is the general game state or the RB.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 20, when the winning combination to be added is a middle cherry, the winning probability of 50 games is 50%, the winning probability of 100 games is 20%, and the winning probability of 150 games is 10 %, The winning probability of 200 games is set to 10%, the winning probability of 250 games is set to 5%, and the winning probability of 300 games is set to 5%. Expect to add 107.5 games.

  If the winning combination is a strong cherry, a strong one, and a strong watermelon, the winning probability of 0 games is 30%, the winning probability of 10 games is 30%, the winning probability of 30 games is 25%, and 50 games Winning probability is 10%, Winning probability of 100 games is 1%, Winning probability of 150 games is 1%, Winning probability of 200 games is 1%, Winning probability of 250 games is 1%, Winning probability of 300 games is 1% It can be expected that 25.5 games will be added on average.

  If the winning addition is a weak cherry, a weak one, or a weak watermelon, the winning probability of 0 games is 50%, the winning probability of 10 games is 40%, the winning probability of 30 games is 5%, Winning probability is 1%, Winning probability of 100 games is 1%, Winning probability of 150 games is 1%, Winning probability of 200 games is 1%, Winning probability of 250 games is 0.5%, Winning probability of 300 games is It is set to 0.5%, and an average of 13.25 games can be expected.

  When the winning combination to be won is a normal replay, if the game state of the game is a general game state, the winning probability of 0 game is set to 99.5%, and the winning probability of 10 game is set to 0.5%. On average, it can be expected to add 0.005 games on average. On the other hand, if the winning combination to be added is normal replay and the game state of the game is RB, the winning probability of 0 game is 50%, the winning probability of 10 games is 40%, and the winning probability of 30 games is 8 %, The winning probability of 50 games is set to 2%, and an average of 7.4 games can be expected.

  After the extra lottery due to the winning target role being won, if the number of extra games is won, the number of winning games is added to the remaining number of games.

  Also, in each game during ART, it is determined whether or not the remaining number of games has become zero at the end of the game. If the remaining number of games is not zero, the ART is continued, while the remaining number of games becomes zero. Judges whether or not there is still more navistock. If navistock remains, subtract 1 from the number of navistock, set the initial number of games as the remaining number of games again, and continue ART.

  On the other hand, if there is no navigation stock remaining, the end control for notifying the end of a series of ARTs is performed, and then the control of the AT is ended.

  In the slot machine in the present embodiment, as described above, the special combination and small combination types subject to the internal lottery and the winning combination probability of the small combination are controlled to either the general gaming state or the RB gaming state. Further, in addition to the gaming state, the game is controlled to one of RT0 to RT3 having different types of re-game players and / or winning probabilities of re-game players to be subject to internal lottery. The game condition transition condition and the RT transition condition are separately determined, and if one transition condition is satisfied but the other transition condition is not satisfied, the transition condition of the game state and RT is Only the established state will be transferred.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 21A, when the gaming state is the general gaming state and the RT type is RT1, when the RB wins, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB. RT1 is maintained as RT type. Furthermore, before the RB termination condition is satisfied, the RT type changes from RT1 to RT2 when the promotion replay wins, and the RT type changes from RT2 to RT3 when the special replay wins. However, RB is maintained in the gaming state. Then, when the RB end condition is satisfied without shifting from RT3 to RT1, the gaming state shifts from RB to the general gaming state, but the RT type is maintained as RT3.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 21B, when the gaming state is the general gaming state and the RT type is RT3, when the RB wins, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB. RT3 is maintained as RT. In addition, before the RB end condition is satisfied, the fall type replay wins or the transition outcome stops, so that the RT type shifts from RT3 to RT1, but the gaming state is maintained RB. It becomes. Then, when the RB end condition is satisfied without shifting from RT1 to RT2 or RT3, the gaming state shifts from RB to the general gaming state, but the RT type is maintained as RT1.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 21 (c), when the gaming state is the general gaming state and the RT type is RT3, when the RB wins, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB. RT3 is maintained as RT. Further, when the RB end condition is satisfied without the RT type shifting from RT3 to RT1, the gaming state shifts from the RB to the general gaming state, but the RT type is maintained as RT3.

  As described above, in this embodiment, even if the RB wins in the general gaming state and the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to RB, the RT type does not change, and after the transition to RB, the RT before transitioning to RB Since it is controlled continuously according to the type of RB, it is related to RT, such as the change of the RT flag value indicating the type of RT and the winning probability of the re-gamer, the reel control at the time of winning the re-gamer, etc. Since it is not necessary to change the control to be performed, the control related to the transition of the gaming state is simplified.

  In addition, even if the RB end condition is satisfied in the RB and the gaming state shifts from the RB to the general gaming state, the RT type does not change, and after the transition to the general gaming state, the RT before the transition to the general gaming state is performed. Since the type is controlled continuously, the RT flag value indicating the type of RT, the change in the winning probability of the re-gamer, the reel control when the re-game player is selected, etc. are changed to RT. Since it is not necessary to change the related control, the control related to the transition of the gaming state is simplified even in such a case.

  In this embodiment, even when the RB wins in the general gaming state and the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB, the RB termination condition is satisfied in the RB, and the gaming state changes from the RB to the general gaming state. Even in the case of transition, the RT type is not changed and is controlled continuously to the RT type before the transition. However, in the general gaming state, the RB wins and the gaming state is changed from the general gaming state to the RB. Only when either the transition occurs or when the RB end condition is satisfied in the RB and the gaming state transitions from the RB to the general gaming state, the RT type is not changed and the RT type before the transition is continued. Even in such a configuration, it is possible to change the RT flag value indicating the type of RT, the winning probability of the re-gamer, and the reel control when the re-game player is selected, even with such a game state transition. Since unnecessary to change the control associated to RT, it is controlled according to the transition game state becomes simple.

  Further, in the present embodiment, it is a configuration provided with only RB as a special gaming state, but it may be a configuration provided with a plurality of special gaming states, and in such a configuration, when transitioning to a specific type of special gaming state, Only when the special game state of a specific type is finished, the RT type is not changed, the control is continued to the RT type before the transition, and when the transition is made to another type of special game state, The configuration may be such that the RT type is changed when the special gaming state is finished. Even in such a configuration, the RT flag value indicating the RT type and the re-game player winning probability even with the transition of the gaming state. Therefore, it is not necessary to change the control related to RT, such as the change of the reel and the reel control at the time of winning the re-gamer, so that the control relating to the transition of the gaming state is simplified.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, when the RB wins in the general gaming state and the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB, the RB termination condition is satisfied in the RB, and the gaming state changes from the RB to the general gaming state. In the case of transition, the RT type is not changed and is controlled continuously to the RT type before the transition, and the winning probability of the small role compared to the general gaming state, particularly for starting the game Small role with more grants than the number of medals required to set the maximum bet number of 3 (3 pieces) (lower right bell, upper watermelon, middle watermelon, lower right watermelon, right The common bell, the weak watermelon, and the strong watermelon, which allow the winning of the uprising watermelon, are set to have a high probability of winning, and the RT3 has a higher probability of winning the re-gamer compared to the RT1 with the highest stay rate. Duplicate controlled It has become get way.

  In RB, as shown in FIG. 22, the type of RT does not change before and after the transition of the gaming state, and the winning probability of the re-gamer and the reel control at the time of winning the re-gamer do not change. By assigning a part of the winning probability of the RB to be the internal lottery and the probability of losing to the winning of the small role, the winning probability of the small role is set high.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 22A, when the gaming state is RB and the RT type is RT1, the winning combination of the re-gamer is relatively low, so that the winning combination in the RB On the other hand, when the ratio of the re-gamer occupying is low, as shown in FIG. 22B, when the game state is RB and the RT type is RT3, the winning probability of the re-gamer is relatively high. Since the ratio of the re-playing game occupying the winning combination during the RB becomes high, the ratio of the small winning combination occupying the winning combination during the RB becomes lower than in the case of RT1.

  In addition, the RB has a winning probability of a small role with more grants than the number of medals (three) necessary to set the maximum bet number among the bets necessary to start the game. A configuration that ends when the number of wins during the RB reaches a specified value in an increasing gaming state, that is, the number of wins that will be the end condition regardless of whether a small role wins or a re-playing role wins is counted. Therefore, as the number of wins for a small role in the number of wins for any combination in the game until the RB end condition is satisfied, the number of medals that increase during the RB increases. In RT3, the ratio of the small combination in the winning combination in RB is lower than that in RT1, and the interest by controlling to RB in RT3 is reduced.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, when one of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during the ART controlled by RT3, the game state is RB, compared to the case of the general game state. The probability that the stop order for winning the special replay that confirms the addition of the number of ART games is set is high, and when the normal replay is won during the ART controlled by RT3, the gaming state is RB The probability that the number of ART games will be added is set higher than in the case of the general gaming state. That is, during the ART controlled by RT3, when the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB than when the re-game player is elected when the game state is the general game state, the ART The advantage related to the addition of the number of games is set to be high, and even if it is controlled by RB in RT3, the winning probability of the re-gamer will be increased during RB, and the number of games of ART will be added Since the opportunity to increase the advantage increases, it is possible to prevent the interest in the RB from deteriorating even when controlled by the RB in the RT3.

  Further, in this embodiment, normal + special replays 1 to 6 in which stop orders for winning special replays that determine the addition of the number of ART games are different are subject to internal lottery, and during ART controlled by RT3 When one of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won, the special replay is decided to be awarded when the game state is RB and the addition of the number of ART games is confirmed as compared to the case of the general game state. In order, that is, by setting a high probability that the operation mode for winning the special replay will be notified, during the ART controlled by RT3, when the gaming state is the general gaming state, the re-player is won When the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB, the advantage related to the addition of the number of ART games is higher. It is possible to set a high advantage for adding the number of ART games without changing the type or winning probability of the target re-gamer by RT3 and RT3 that does not overlap with RB Become.

  Further, in this embodiment, during the ART controlled by RT3, when the normal replay with the highest winning probability among the replaying players is won in RT3, the game state is RB when the game state is RB. Since the probability that the number of ART games will be added is set higher than the case where the game is, the game of ART will be increased by increasing the winning probability of the re-gamer during RB when controlled by RB in RT3. It is possible to effectively increase opportunities for increasing the advantage related to the addition of numbers.

  Also, when the normal replay is won during ART controlled by RT3, the probability that the number of ART games will be added when the game state is RB is higher than when the game state is the general game state. During the ART controlled by RT3, when the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB than when the re-game player is elected when the game state is the general game state, the ART The advantage related to the addition of the number of games is increased, and the RT3 that overlaps with the RB and the RT3 that does not overlap with the RB do not change the type or winning probability of the target re-gamer by the internal lottery. In addition, it is possible to set the advantage related to the addition of the number of ART games high.

  In the present embodiment, ART, that is, an additional number of games in a gaming state advantageous to the player is applied as a privilege given when the re-gamer is elected during the ART controlled by RT3. As benefits, add the number of games in an advantageous gaming state other than ART, add the number of times that an operation mode for avoiding the termination of an advantageous gaming state other than ART or ART is notified, and enter an advantageous gaming state other than ART or ART. The addition rate of the continuation rate, navigation stock, that is, the right to allow ART to control the predetermined number of games, the right to control to an advantageous gaming state other than ART (for example, high probability state of navigation stock lottery), etc. may be applied.

  Further, in this embodiment, when any of the normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during the ART controlled by RT3, the ART is compared to the general game state when the game state is RB. If the game state is RB when the normal replay is won during the ART controlled by RT3, the probability that the stop order for winning the special replay for which the addition of the number of games will be won will be announced is set high. By increasing the probability that the number of ART games will be added compared to when in the general gaming state, during the ART controlled by RT3, when the gaming state is the general gaming state, If the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB, the advantage of adding the number of ART games is higher than the case where the game state is RB. During the ART that is being played, if the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB than the re-game player is elected when the game state is the general game state, the number of ART games It is good also as a structure with which the advantage which concerns on an addition becomes high, and in other methods, for example, in the ART controlled by RT3, the game of ART is compared with the case where it is a general game state when the game state is RB Increase the ratio of winning special replays where the addition of numbers is confirmed, and when the gaming state is the general gaming state when any of normal + special replays 1 to 6 is won during ART controlled by RT3 While the stop order for winning the special replay that confirms the addition of the number of ART games varies, the stop order for winning the special replay is specified when the game state is RB. During an ART controlled by RT3, such as by fixing in stop order, the re-gamer is elected when the game state is RB than when the re-gamer is elected when the game state is the general game state In this case, the advantage of increasing the number of ART games may be increased.

  Further, in this embodiment, RT1 is selected as a normal gaming state where a re-gamer is elected with a predetermined probability, and RT3 is adopted as a re-game high probability state where a re-gamer is elected with a higher probability than the predetermined probability. RT (A) in which the re-gamer is not subject to internal lottery is applied as the normal gaming state, and the re-gamer is subject to internal lottery as the re-game high probability state, and RT ( B) may be applied as a replay high probability state.

  In the present embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 performs an during-ART effect peculiar to ART during the ART controlled by RT3. The effect during ART is executed regardless of whether it is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by RB, and is executed in a common effect mode (background image displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, BGM, etc.). .

  In the production during ART, as shown in FIG. 23A, a specific image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 during the ART regardless of whether the game is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by the RB. The number of remaining ART games, a series of ARTs (ARTs that continue after the special replay wins and moves to RT3 after AT notification), and the number of medals increased during the series of ARTs are displayed. The

  The number of remaining ART games, the number of continuing ART games, and the number of medals increased during a series of ARTs are the number of remaining ART games, the number of continuing ART games, It is only necessary to be able to specify the number of medals that have increased in number, and it is possible to provide notification by displaying the numerical value itself, or to notify visually by the number of pictures displayed, meter display, or the like. Moreover, it is not restricted to what is notified by displaying on the liquid crystal display 51, You may notify using a special indicator, a lamp | ramp, LED, etc.

  As shown in FIGS. 23A to 23B, the sub-control unit 91 controls the remaining number of games displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 in the production during ART to the general gaming state. At the start of the game, one subtraction is displayed for each game. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 23C to 23D, when the game is shifted to RB, the game is digested while being controlled by RB. The number of remaining games displayed before the transition to RB is maintained without subtraction display, and then the subtraction display for each game is resumed by the transition to the general gaming state after the completion of RB. .

  As shown in FIG. 23 (e), when the number of remaining games of ART is added during ART, it is added each time regardless of whether the game is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by RB. The number of games played is added to the number of remaining ART games displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 and updated.

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 23A to 23E, the sub-control unit 91 controls the number of continued ART games displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 in the production during ART to the general gaming state. Regardless of whether the game is controlled or controlled by RB, one subtraction is displayed for each game at the start of the game.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 23A to 23E, the sub control unit 91 changes the number of medals increased during a series of ARTs displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 during the ART effect to the general gaming state. Regardless of whether it is controlled or controlled by RB, the number of medals used for setting the number of bets at the start of the game is displayed in a subtracted manner. When the re-gamer wins, the display is made for the number of medals necessary for setting the bet number in the next game.

  As described above, in this embodiment, during the ART controlled by RT3, an ART effect unique to ART is executed, and whether the ART effect is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by RB. Since it is executed in a common production mode, it becomes difficult to recognize that the game state has changed even if the game state is changed from RB to ART during the ART controlled by RT3. Even if the RT3 that does not overlap with RT3 shifts to RT3 that overlaps with RB, it can be recognized as an integrated ART.

  Further, in this embodiment, the number of continued games in the series of ART updated for each game in the production during ART and the number of medals increased during the series of ARTs are controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by RB. Since the display is updated every game regardless of whether or not the game state is changed, it is difficult to recognize that the game state has changed even if the general game state is changed to RB during the ART controlled by RT3. , Even if the RT3 that does not overlap with the RB during the ART shifts to the RT3 that overlaps with the RB, it can be recognized as an integrated ART.

  Further, in this embodiment, while being controlled in the general gaming state during ART, the number of remaining games of ART is subtracted for each game, while being controlled to RB by shifting to RB during ART. The number of remaining ART games is not subtracted, and after the RB is completed, the remaining number of ART games is subtracted again for each game by shifting to the general gaming state, and the display is updated for each game in the effect during ART. Even if the value is a value, it is a value that suggests the number of remaining games of the ART, that is, an advantageous amount for the player, and for the value that is not subtracted during RB, the displayed value is not subtracted and updated, and is added when adding Since the addition display is performed only in the case, in RT3 overlapping with RB, the remaining number of games of ART is not consumed in terms of both the appearance and the appearance, so that it is controlled by ART. Cormorants interest can be increased.

  In this embodiment, the number of continuous games in a series of ARTs and the number of medals increased during a series of ARTs are applied as numerical values to be displayed and updated for each game in the production during ART. Regardless of whether it is controlled or controlled by RB, the display is updated for each game. However, the numerical value that is updated for each game in the production during ART is controlled to the general gaming state. If the display is updated for each game regardless of whether it is controlled or not, even if the RT3 that does not overlap with the RB during the ART shifts to the RT3 that overlaps with the RB as described above, it is recognized as an integrated ART. As a numerical value that is displayed and updated for each game in the production during ART, for example, when the above-mentioned number of remaining games of ART is applied, the specific role is won. Even if you apply the number of games that have passed since (for example, it is effective when controlled for a predetermined number of games in a high probability state in which the winning probability of winning the Navistock lottery or the extra lottery is preferentially won by winning) Regardless of whether the numerical value of the game is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by the RB, the display is updated for each game, so that the RT3 that does not overlap with the RB during the ART shifts to the RT3 that overlaps with the RB. However, it can be recognized as an integrated ART. In addition, the numerical value displayed and updated for each game may be added and updated as the number of continuous games in a series of ART, or may be updated and subtracted as the number of remaining games in ART. Both addition update and subtraction update may be performed like the number of medals increased during a series of ART.

  In this embodiment, the numerical value displayed and updated for each game in the production during ART is updated internally for each game regardless of whether it is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by RB. Although the numerical value is applied, it is not always necessary to update the internal numerical value regardless of whether it is controlled in the general gaming state or controlled by the RB, for example, transition from the general gaming state to the RB In this case, the internal numerical value may not be updated, and only the numerical value may be updated. Even in such a configuration, it is generally performed during ART controlled by RT3 from the display contents. It becomes difficult to recognize that the game state has changed even if the game state is changed to RB, and even if it is changed from RT3 that does not overlap with RB to RT3 that overlaps with RB during ART, it is recognized as an integrated ART. It can be.

  Further, in this embodiment, the configuration in which the remaining number of games of ART is applied as an advantageous amount that is not subtracted and updated during RB, that is, it is controlled to an advantageous gaming state by consuming the remaining number of games of ART. The number of rights to control the predetermined number of games to the advantageous gaming state (this implementation) may be sufficient as long as the operation mode for avoiding the termination of the advantageous gaming state is notified. In the example, a configuration may be adopted in which Navistock) is applied as an advantageous amount. Further, the advantageous gaming state controlled by consuming the advantageous amount is not limited to ART, and may be an advantageous gaming state other than ART (for example, a high probability state of navigation stock lottery).

  Further, in this embodiment, even if the remaining number of games of ART is added even during RB, it is configured to be added and updated each time. However, the remaining ART displayed even if added is added during RB. It is also possible to add and update the number of remaining ART games displayed at the end of the RB without adding and updating the number of games. By doing so, the impression that the remaining number of ART games has been added significantly. Can be given.

  In this embodiment, the actual number of remaining games is displayed as the number of remaining ART games displayed during ART. However, the number of remaining games equal to or less than the actual number of remaining games in ART is displayed. With this configuration, it is possible to expect the possibility that the number of remaining ART games still remains even if the number of remaining ART games displayed decreases.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and modifications and additions within the scope of the present invention are included in the present invention. Needless to say.

  In the above embodiment, an example in which the bet number is set using medals and credits as game values has been described, but a slot machine that sets bet numbers using game balls as game values, The present invention may be applied to a fully credit type slot machine that uses only credit as a gaming value to set a bet amount. In the case of using a game ball as a game value, for example, one medal can correspond to five game balls, and when three bets are set in the first embodiment, 15 game balls are used. This is equivalent to setting the number of bets using.

  Further, the present invention is not limited to the use of only one of a plurality of types of game values such as medals and game balls, for example, a combination of a plurality of types of game values such as medals and game balls. It may be. That is, it is possible to play a game by setting the number of bets using any of a plurality of types of gaming values such as medals and game balls, and a plurality of types of games such as medals and game balls when a winning occurs. You may apply the slot machine which can pay out all of utility values.

Determining that the award is allowed to occur with the same probability both in the special gaming state that occurred during the normal gaming state and in the special gaming state that occurred during the replay high probability state;
Determining that the re-game winning is allowed with the same probability as the normal gaming state in the special gaming state generated during the normal gaming state;
Determining that the replay prize is allowed to be generated with the same probability as the replay high probability state in the special game state generated during the replay high probability state;
The derivation control means performs control for deriving a display result for generating the replay prize when it is determined to allow the occurrence of the replay prize in the special gaming state,
When the slot machine is allowed to generate a replay prize in the replay high probability state when the replay prize is allowed to occur in the special game state generated during the replay high probability state The slot machine is characterized in that the degree of advantage relating to the provision of the privilege is set higher than the slot machine. The game can be started by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using the gaming value, and a plurality of types of identification information that can be distinguished from each other can be displayed in a variable display device that can be displayed in a variable manner. Is a slot machine in which one game is completed by being derived and winning can be generated according to the display result derived to the variable display device,
Before a display result is derived on the variable display device, a re-game winning with a re-game that can be played without using the gaming value and a winning with a game value are given. A pre-determining means for determining whether or not to allow a plurality of types of winnings to be included,
Derivation control means for performing control to cause the variable display device to derive a display result according to a determination result of the prior determination means;
The normal gaming state in which it is not determined to allow the occurrence of the re-game winning, the re-probability high probability state in which it is determined that the occurrence of the re-game winning is allowed, and the grant at a higher rate than the normal gaming state A gaming state control means for controlling to a plurality of types of gaming states, including a special gaming state that is determined to allow the occurrence of winnings and is terminated when the number of times that winnings have reached a specified number;
A privilege granting means for granting a privilege advantageous to the player;
