Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine.

  In the slot machine, when the start lever is operated after the medal is inserted or the bet button is operated, the three reels arranged side by side start to rotate. A plurality of types of symbols are drawn on the peripheral surface of each reel. The ROM of the slot machine stores a lottery table created by associating a plurality of roles with random numbers. When the start lever is operated, a random number is acquired and an internal lottery using a lottery table is performed. When a reel stop button provided in association with each reel is operated, the reel corresponding to the operated reel stop button stops. When a combination of symbols corresponding to any combination is arranged on the winning line when all the reels are stopped, the combination is awarded, and depending on the combination, a predetermined number of medals are paid out.

  The ROM stores a stop table for reel stop control in association with each combination. Each symbol on the reel is assigned a symbol number, and in the stop table, the symbol number constituting the symbol combination for winning the winning combination and the symbol corresponding to the symbol number can be stopped on the winning line. The possible retractable range is stored. For the reel stop control, a stop table associated with the winning combination in the internal lottery is used. If the symbol number of the symbol located on the winning line is acquired at the timing when the reel stop button is operated and the symbol number is a symbol number included in the retractable range stored in the stop table, the symbol number is included. The stop of the reel is controlled so that the symbol number symbol stored in the stop table, that is, the symbol constituting the symbol combination that wins the winning combination stops on the winning line.

  Recently, there are many models that have a so-called push order small role. If the winning combination is selected in the internal lottery and the three reel stop buttons are operated in the correct order, the combination of symbols corresponding to the pressing order small combination will be displayed on the winning line by the reel stop control. Lined up. Further, in the model provided with the push order small combination, the lottery table is created so that the incorrect answer small combination is won together with the push order small combination. If the winning combination of the push order and the incorrect answering role is won and the three reel stop buttons are operated in an incorrect order, depending on the timing of the reel stop button operation, the reel stop control may cause A combination of symbols corresponding to the correct answer role is arranged on the winning line.

JP 2012-611166 A

  Under the current rules, the stop table that is used when two or more winning combinations are won is given priority on the winning line for symbols that constitute a combination of symbols that will win the winning combination with the highest number of medals for winning. Either the stop table that draws automatically, or the stop table that draws the symbol with the highest number of winning combinations remaining on the winning line when the first reel stops (first stop). Must be.

  For example, the symbol combinations corresponding to the push order small combinations are “bell”-“bell”-“bell” in order from the left, and the symbol combinations corresponding to the first incorrect answer small combination are “replay”- Assume that “A”-“A” and the symbol combination corresponding to the second incorrect answering combination is “Replay”-“B”-“B”. Further, it is assumed that the number of medals to be paid out for the winning of the push order small combination is 15, and the number of medals to be paid out for the winning of the first incorrect answer small combination and the second incorrect answer small combination is 5 respectively.

  In the internal lottery, when the push order, first incorrect answer, and second incorrect answer are duplicated, the “bell” symbol is preferentially drawn on the winning line for reel stop control. A stop table may be used. In addition, when the “replay” symbol on the left reel is first stopped on the winning line, there is a possibility of winning the two roles of the first incorrect answering role and the second incorrect answering role, There is a possibility of winning more roles than when the “reel” symbol on the left reel is first stopped on the winning line. Therefore, a stop table that preferentially draws the “replay” symbol onto the winning line may be used.

  The number of medals to be paid out for an incorrect answer winning combination is usually set to be smaller than the number of medals to be paid out for a winning combination of push order. Therefore, the stop table used for the reel stop control is inevitably the latter stop table, that is, the symbol (“replay” symbol) that has the largest number of winning combinations remaining when the first reel stops. ) Is a stop table that is preferentially drawn on the winning line.

  However, when using the stop table of the latter, at least two incorrect answer small combinations must be pushed and overlapped with the order small combinations. If the number of illegally-accomplished small combinations that are won in duplicate increases, the rate of winning an illegally-accomplished small combination increases, which is extremely advantageous for the player and disadvantageous for the hall where the slot machine is installed.

  An object of the present invention is to reduce the winning rate (acquisition rate) of an incorrect answering role in a configuration having a lottery table in which two or more incorrect answering roles are won in combination with a correct answering role (push order small role). Is to provide a gaming machine.

  The present invention will be described below. In order to facilitate understanding of the invention, reference numerals and the like in the accompanying drawings are appended in parentheses, but the present invention is not limited to the display form.

  In order to achieve the above object, a gaming machine (1) according to the present invention has a predetermined number of symbols including a correct symbol, a first incorrect symbol, a second incorrect symbol, a first control symbol, and a second control symbol. A plurality of symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) for displaying the symbols in a variable manner by having the arrangement and moving around the array, and starting the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) The start instruction means (15) operated for instructing and the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) are provided corresponding to each of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) to stop the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R). In response to the operation of the stop instructing means (16L, 16C, 16R) operated to instruct and the start instructing means (15), all of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) Start control means (3 ), A lottery table storage means for storing a lottery table created by associating one or more winning combinations and lottery values for each lottery section, and the start instruction means (15) In response to the operation, a lottery execution means (31) for obtaining a random number and determining the lottery classification including the lottery value matching the random number, and the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) In response to the operation of the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) after the start of the variable display, the stop instruction means based on the lottery classification determined by the lottery execution means (31) The symbol array of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) corresponding to the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) at the timing when (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated The stop control means (31) for moving and stopping the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) below a predetermined maximum number of drawn frames with reference to the position is set in association with each role. Winning determination means (31) for determining whether or not the arrangement of the symbols has stopped on a predetermined winning line, and the lottery section is associated with the correct answer that is the arrangement of the symbols including the correct symbols. The correct correct combination, the first incorrect combination that is associated with the sequence of symbols including the first incorrect symbol, and the first control that is associated with the sequence of symbols that includes the first control symbol A first lottery category, a correct small part, a second incorrect small part associated with an array of symbols including the second incorrect answer symbol, and an array of symbols including the second control symbol. The second lottery division in which the associated second control role is determined In the first lottery section and the second lottery section, the order of operation of the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R), which are correct answers, is determined in association with each other. A plurality of correct symbols are arranged so that the interval between the correct symbols is equal to or less than the maximum number of drawn frames. The first incorrect symbols are controlled by the stop control means (31) and the first correct symbols are assigned to the winning line. A plurality of second incorrect symbols are arranged within a predetermined first retractable range that can be stopped upward, and the second incorrect symbols are placed on the winning line by stop control by the stop control means (31). Are arranged in a predetermined second retractable range that can be stopped at a time, and the first retractable range and the second retractable range are set exclusively so as not to overlap each other The first The control symbol is arranged so that the maximum pull-in range of the first control symbol is included in the first pull-in range, and the second control symbol has a maximum pull-in range of the second control symbol in the second pull-in range. The stop control means (31) is arranged such that the first lottery section or the second lottery section is determined by the lottery execution means (31), and the stop instruction is provided. When the operation order of the means (16L, 16C, 16R) is correct, the variation display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) is stopped so that the correct answer is stopped on the winning line. Let

  According to this configuration, when the start instructing means (15) is operated, the start control means (31) starts the variable display of the symbols on the plurality of symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R). Further, a lottery in which a lottery table in which a plurality of lottery categories including a first lottery category and a second lottery category are set is referred to and a lottery category including a lottery value that matches the random number is determined is acquired by random numbers. Is executed.

  Thereafter, when the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated, the stop control means (31) displays the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) corresponding to the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R). The change display of is stopped. At this time, the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) is based on the symbol array of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) at the timing when the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated. Stopped within a predetermined maximum number of frames to be drawn based on the position.

  In the first lottery classification, the correct answer small role, the first incorrect answer small role, and the first control small role are determined as the winning combinations. In the second lottery classification, a correct answer small combination, a second incorrect answer small combination, and a second control small combination are determined as winning combinations.

  The correct answer combination is associated with a correct answer that is an array of symbols including a correct symbol. The correct answer symbols are arranged so that the interval between the correct symbols is equal to or less than the maximum number of frames to be drawn. Therefore, even if the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated at any timing, the correct symbol can be stopped on the winning line by the stop control by the stop control means (31).

  When the first lottery section or the second lottery section is determined by lottery, if the stop instructing means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated in the correct operation order, the stop control means (31) outputs the correct answer. Stopping the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) is controlled so that the eyes stop on the winning line. When the correct answer stops on the winning line, the correct answer role is won. That is, when the stop instructing means (16L, 16C, 16R) are operated in the correct operation order, the correct answer winning combination is surely won.

  For example, when the first incorrect answer symbol of the symbol associated with the first control small role is included, the variation display of the first symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) is stopped (first stop). When the first incorrect answer symbol stops on the winning line, there is a possibility that both the first incorrect answer small combination and the first control small combination will win. Therefore, when the first lottery section is determined by lottery and the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated in an operation order that is not correct, the first incorrect answer symbol is placed on the winning line for the first stop. It is possible to use a stop table that is drawn into and stopped preferentially.

  A plurality of the first incorrect symbols are arranged within a predetermined first retractable range in which the first incorrect symbols can be stopped on the winning line by the stop control by the stop control means (31). On the other hand, the first control symbol is arranged such that the maximum pull-in range of the first control symbol is included in the first pullable range. Therefore, when the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated, even if the first control symbol is located within the maximum drawing range of the first control symbol from the winning line, the first incorrect symbol is won. Since it is located within the first drawable range from the line, the first incorrect figure is drawn on the winning line and stopped. Therefore, the first control small combination may not be won.

  Also, for example, when the second incorrect answer symbol of the symbol associated with the second control small role is included, if the second incorrect answer symbol stops on the winning line due to the first stop, There is a possibility of winning both the combination and the second control small combination. Therefore, when the second lottery classification is determined by lottery and the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated in an operation order that is not correct, the second incorrect answer symbol is placed on the winning line for the first stop. It is possible to use a stop table that is drawn into and stopped preferentially.

  A plurality of second incorrect symbols are arranged within a predetermined second retractable range in which the second incorrect symbols can be stopped on the winning line by stop control by the stop control means (31). On the other hand, the second control symbol is arranged so that the maximum pull-in range of the second control symbol is included in the second pullable range. Therefore, when the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) is operated, even if the second control symbol is located within the maximum drawing range of the second control symbol from the winning line, the second incorrect answer symbol is won. Since it is located within the second drawable range from the line, the second incorrect figure is drawn on the winning line and stops. Therefore, no prize is won for the second control bonus.

  Therefore, the first lottery division in which two or more incorrect answer small roles and the first control small role are elected redundantly with the correct answer small number and the second wrong number that is two or more incorrect answer small roles. In a configuration having a lottery table in which a second lottery classification is set in which the correct answer small role and the second control small role are won in duplicate with the correct answer small role, the winning rate (acquisition rate) of the incorrect answer small role can be lowered. .

  As a result, the player's expectation for operating the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) in the correct operation order can be expanded.

  The lottery value set for the first lottery category is the same as the lottery value set for the second lottery category, and the number of roles set for the first lottery category and the number of roles set for the second lottery category Are preferably the same.

  Thereby, the probability that the first lottery section is determined in the lottery and the probability that the second lottery section is determined can be made equal. In addition, the winning ratio of the combination determined in the first lottery section and the winning ratio of the combination determined in the second lottery section can be made equal. As a result, it is possible to make the expectation degree for winning of the combination determined in one of the first lottery section or the second lottery section uniform, and the player aims at a specific range of the symbol arrangement (stop instruction means ( 16L, 16C, 16R) can be eliminated, and the capture element of gaining profit can be eliminated.

  The symbol includes the third incorrect answer symbol, and the third incorrect answer symbol is a predetermined third error symbol that can stop the third incorrect answer symbol on the winning line by stop control by the stop control means (31). A plurality of retractable ranges are arranged within the retractable range, and the first retractable range, the second retractable range, and the third retractable range are set exclusively so as not to overlap each other. You may distribute to the 1 retractable range, the 2nd retractable range, and the 3rd retractable range.

  The gaming machine (1) changes the operation order of the game state switching means (32) for switching the game state between the normal state and the assist time state, and the stop instruction means (16L, 16C, 16R) that are correct in the assist time state. It is preferable to further include an operation order notifying means (32) for notifying.

  In the assist time state, the operation order of the stop instructing means (16L, 16C, 16R) is notified, so that the correct answer combination is obtained by operating the stop instructing means (16L, 16C, 16R) in accordance with the notified operation order. Surely wins. Therefore, the player's expectation for the transition from the normal state to the assist time state can be expanded.

  The special game start symbol is included in the symbol, and the lottery category defines the special game start role that will be awarded when the special game start event, which is a sequence of symbols including the game start symbol, stops on the winning line The stop control means (31) includes predetermined symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) in each game in the special game that is started in response to the winning of the special game starter. )), The maximum number of drawn-in frames is set to 1, and the variable display of the symbol display means (4L, 4C, 4R) is moved and stopped within the range of one frame, and the game state switching means (32) The game state may be switched from the normal state to the assist time state during a period from when the third lottery section is determined by the lottery execution means (31) until the special game starting combination is won.

  According to the present invention, in the first lottery classification and the two or more incorrect answer small roles, the first incorrect answer small role and the first control small role, which are two or more incorrect answer small numbers, are won in duplicate with the correct answer small number. In a configuration having a lottery table in which a second lottery classification is set in which a certain second incorrect answering role and a second control role are elected in duplicate with a correct answering role, the winning rate (acquisition rate) of the incorrect answering role is determined. Can be lowered. As a result, the player's expectation for operating the stop instruction means in the correct operation order can be expanded.

  Each time a medal inserted from the medal insertion slot 11 enters the medal storage unit, a detection signal is output from the medal insertion sensor 55, and the detection signal is input to the CPU 41 via the input / output port 44.

  Each time a medal is ejected to the medal tray 18 by the medal ejection motor 53, a detection signal is output from the medal ejection sensor 56, and the detection signal is input to the CPU 41 via the input / output port 44.

  The number of medals (credits) deposited in the slot machine 1 is counted by a counter provided in the RAM 43. The CPU 41 controls the medal block solenoid 52 until the number of credits reaches 50, the discharge destination of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 11 is the medal storage unit, and when the number of credits reaches 50, the discharge destination To the medal tray 18. Further, after the number of credits reaches 50, when the medal payout (payout) wins a winning combination, the CPU 41 controls the medal discharge motor 53 to discharge the medal to the medal tray 18.

  The random number generation circuit 45 includes an increment counter that counts up in response to an output of a clock pulse from an oscillator (not shown), and generates a 16-bit random number.

  When the start lever 15 is operated, the CPU 41 executes an internal lottery. In the internal lottery, a random number is acquired from the random number generation circuit 45. Further, the lottery table 47 is read from the ROM 42. Then, based on the random number acquired from the random number generation circuit 45 and the lottery table 47, the winning combination or the losing of the internal lottery is determined. The lottery table 47 will be described in detail later.

  Further, the CPU 41 sends a command and a signal necessary for control to the effect sub-board 32 and the electrical decoration sub-board 33 via the signal sending circuit 46.

  The effect sub-board 32 includes a CPU 61, a ROM 62, a RAM 63, a signal input circuit 64, and a drive circuit 65.

  The CPU 61 is connected to the ROM 62, RAM 63, signal input circuit 64, and drive circuit 65.

  Various programs are stored in the ROM 62. Various programs are executed by the CPU 61.

  The RAM 63 is used as a work area when the CPU 61 executes a program.

  A signal from the signal transmission circuit 46 of the main board 31 is input to the signal input circuit 64.

  The CPU 61 executes a program stored in the ROM 62 and controls the display of the liquid crystal display 19 via the drive circuit 65 based on a signal input from the signal input circuit 64.

  Based on the command transmitted from the main board 31, the electrical decoration sub-board 33 controls lighting of the LEDs 71 built in the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, the right stop button 16R, and the like. Moreover, the output of the sound effect from the speakers 20 and 23 is controlled.

Winning.

<Game flow>

  FIG. 29A and FIG. 29B are flowcharts showing the flow of processing (game flow) executed for each game on the main board.

  On the main board 31, the CPU 41 executes the processing shown in FIGS. 29A and 29B for each game.

  First, it is determined whether or not a medal is bet on the game (step S1). It is also determined that a medal has been bet on the game when the “replay role” is won and execution of one game is permitted without betting a medal.

  The subsequent processing is not executed until a medal is bet on the game (NO in step S1).

  If a medal is bet on the game (YES in step S1), it is next determined whether or not the start lever 15 has been operated (step S2).

  The subsequent processing is not executed until the start lever 15 is operated (NO in step S2).

  When the start lever 15 is operated (YES in step S2), the betting operation is prohibited (step S3). Specifically, the medal block solenoid 52 is controlled, and the discharge destination of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 11 is the medal tray 18. Also, the input of operation signals from the MAX bet button 12, the 1-bet button 13 and the 2-bet button 14 is invalidated.

  A random number is acquired from the random number generation circuit 45 at the timing when the start lever 15 is operated (step S4).

  Subsequently, an internal lottery using the random number is executed (step S5).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the second-type BB winning flag is on (step S6). The second-type BB winning flag is provided in the RAM 43 of the main board 31 and is off in an initial state (a state immediately after the slot machine 1 is turned on).

  If the type 2 BB winning flag is off (NO in step S6), it is determined whether or not the “type 2 BB starting combination” has been won in the internal lottery (step S7).

  When the “type 2 BB starting combination” is won in the internal lottery (YES in step S7), the type 2 BB winning flag is turned on (step S8).

  If the “type 2 BB starting combination” is not won in the internal lottery (NO in step S7), the type 2 BB winning flag is kept off.

  If the second-type BB winning flag has already been turned on (YES in step S6), or if the second-type BB winning flag has been turned on (step S8), an ART is sent from the main board 31 to the effect sub-board 32. A notification to permit the (assist replay time) state is issued (step S9).

  Further, after the internal lottery is executed, the result of the internal lottery is notified from the main board 31 to the effect sub-board 32 (step S10).

  Here, when a specific combination (for example, “watermelon combination”) is won by internal lottery and a notification to that effect is input to the production sub-board 32, the ART lottery is executed on the production sub-board 32. In the slot machine 1, a normal state and an ART state are provided as game states. In the ART state, the winning probability of the “replay role” is higher than that in the normal state, and when the “small role bell” which is a push order in the internal lottery is won, the display on the liquid crystal display 19 and the speakers 20 and 23 By the output voice, a notification for guiding the correct pressing order of the “small role bell” is made. Therefore, in the ART state, the player can win a medal by losing the “small role bell” without reducing the number of medals owned (the number of possession balls), and can acquire a medal by the winning. If the ART lottery is won and a notification that the ART state is permitted is input to the effect sub-board 32, the gaming state is shifted from the normal state to the ART state. When the ART lottery is won, but the notification that the ART state is permitted is not input to the effect sub-board 32, the gaming state is maintained in the normal state. In this case, the winning of the ART lottery is carried over until a notification that the ART state is permitted is input to the effect sub-board 32.

  As will be described later, when the two-type BB start combination is won, the two-type BB winning flag is turned off. Therefore, the transition from the normal state to the ART state is performed after winning the type 2 BB starting combination and winning the type 2 BB starting combination.

  Thereafter, it is determined whether 4.1 seconds have elapsed from the start of rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R in the previous game (step S11).

  If 4.1 seconds have elapsed from the start of rotation of the left reel 4L, middle reel 4C and right reel 4R in the previous game (YES in step S11), the left reel 4L, middle reel 4C and right reel 4R The rotation is started (step S12).

  The rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R is not started until 4.1 seconds have elapsed from the start of the rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R in the previous game (step S11). NO). As a result, the time required for one game is maintained for 4.1 seconds or more.

  Thereafter, reel stop control for stopping the rotation of the left reel 4L, middle reel 4C and right reel 4R is executed (step S13). The reel stop control will be described later.

  When the rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R is stopped by the reel stop control, it is determined whether or not symbols corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery are arranged on the winning line. That is, a winning determination is made as to whether or not the winning combination in the internal lottery has been won (step S14).

  Then, when the winning combination in the internal lottery wins, it is determined whether or not the winning combination is a “type 2 BB starting combination” (step S15).

  When the type 2 BB starting combination is won (YES in step S15), the type 2 BB winning flag is turned off (step S16). Then, the two-type BB game is started from the next game. In the two-type BB game, all small roles are won regardless of the result of the internal lottery.

  When the type 2 BB starting combination is won (YES in step S15), the process in step S16 is skipped.

  Thereafter, the prohibition of the betting operation is released (step S18), and the process in one game is ended.

<Reel stop control>

  FIG. 30 is a diagram for explaining the contents of the stop table.

  In the reel stop control, after the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated, the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R are rotated within a predetermined maximum number of drawing frames, respectively. After that, the rotation can be stopped. For example, the maximum number of frames to be drawn is set to 4 frames in the normal game that is not in the 2nd class BB game and in the 2nd class BB. During the two-type BB game, at least one of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R has a maximum number of frames to be drawn in the reel stop control.

  The stop table 48 is created in consideration of the arrangement of symbols for winning the winning combination and the maximum number of drawn frames for each winning combination that is the subject of the internal lottery.

  For example, it is assumed that in the internal lottery, the random number acquired by the CPU 41 from the random number generation circuit 45 is one of 1000 lottery values stored in the lottery category “1”. In this case, “small role bell”, “small role 1”, “small role 2”, “small role 17”, “small role 26”, “small role 20”, “small role 22”, “small role 24”. , “Short Role 25” and “Short Role 27” are both won.

  When the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in the correct pressing order of the “small role bell”, for example, the middle stop button 16C, the right stop button 16R, and the left stop button 16L are operated in this order. With reference to the stop table for “small role bell”, the “bell” symbols of the left reel 4L, middle reel 4C and right reel 4R are stopped on the winning line by the reel stop control.

  The arrangement of symbols for winning the “small role bell” is the arrangement of “bell” symbol- “bell” symbol- “bell” symbol from the left. Therefore, the “bell” symbol stop table defines a range in which the “bell” symbols of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R can be stopped on the winning line. A table is included.

  In the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R, the “bell” symbols are arranged without a space larger than four frames between the “bell” symbols. Therefore, no matter what timing the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated, the “bell” symbols of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R are respectively displayed by the reel stop control. It is possible to stop on the winning line. Therefore, in the “bell” symbol stop table of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R, the entire range of symbol numbers “1” to “21” is defined as the retractable range of the “bell” symbol.

  Therefore, when the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in the correct pressing order of the “small role bell”, the “small role bell” is 100% regardless of the timing of the operation. Win with a probability of.

  The left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated in a different order from the correct push order of the “small bell”, for example, the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated in this order. In the case, the stop table for “small role 1” is referred to.

  The arrangement of symbols for winning “small role 1” is the arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “A” symbol from the left. Therefore, in the stop table for “small role 1”, the “lip” symbol stop table that defines the range in which the “lip” symbol of the left reel 4L can be stopped on the winning line, the middle reel 4C and the right reel An “A” symbol stop table that defines a first retractable range in which the “A” symbol of the reel 4R can be stopped on the winning line is included.

  In the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R, the “lip” symbols are arranged without a space larger than four frames between the “lip” symbols. Therefore, no matter what timing the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated, the “repe” symbols of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R are respectively displayed by the reel stop control. It is possible to stop on the winning line. Accordingly, in the “LIP” symbol stop table, the entire range of symbol numbers “1” to “21” is defined as the “LIP” symbol pull-in range.

  In the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R, as shown in FIG. 30, symbols “A” are symbols of symbol numbers “21” and “18”. During a normal game, the symbols included in the maximum number of four frames drawn, that is, the symbol number, on the upstream side in the rotational direction of the left reel 4L, middle reel 4C and right reel 4R from the symbol “A” of symbol number “21”. When the symbols “17” to “21” are positioned on the stop line, and the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated, the symbol number “21” is controlled by the reel stop control. It is possible to stop the “A” symbol on the winning line. However, since the symbol of the symbol number “18” is the symbol “A”, in the “A” symbol stop table, the retractable range for the symbol “A” of the symbol number “21” is symbol numbers “19” to “19”. It is determined in a range including the symbol “21”. Further, when the symbols of the symbol numbers “14” to “18” are positioned on the stop line and the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated, the symbols are controlled by the reel stop control. It is possible to stop the “A” symbol of the number “18” on the winning line. Therefore, in the “A” symbol stop table, the retractable range for the symbol “A” of symbol number “18” is defined as a range including symbols of symbol numbers “14” to “18”. As a result, in the “A” symbol stop table, symbols “14” to “21” are displayed as the first retractable range in which the “A” symbol can be stopped on the winning line by the reel stop control. The range to include is defined.

  According to the reel stop control with reference to the “small role 1” stop table, the “Lip” symbol of the left reel 4L stops on the winning line no matter what timing the left stop button 16L is operated. Further, when the symbol of symbol numbers “14” to “21” included in the first retractable range of the middle reel 4C is positioned on the winning line, when the middle stop button 16C is operated, the reel stop control is performed. The “A” symbol of the middle reel 4C stops on the winning line. Furthermore, when the right stop button 16R is operated when the symbols of the symbol numbers “14” to “21” included in the first retractable range of the right reel 4R are positioned on the winning line, the reel stop control causes The “A” symbol on the right reel 4R stops on the winning line.

  The “a” symbol of symbol number “19” on the right reel 4R is included in the symbols that are within the four frames that are the maximum number of frames drawn from the position upstream of the right reel 4R, that is, symbol numbers “15” to “19”. When the right stop button 16R is operated when the symbol is positioned on the stop line, it is theoretically possible to stop the winning line by reel stop control. Therefore, the retractable range for the symbol “a” of symbol number “19” of the right reel 4R is a range including symbols of symbol numbers “15” to “19”. This range is completely included in the first retractable range. Therefore, when the right stop button 16R is operated when the symbols of the symbol numbers “15” to “19” are positioned on the stop line, the “A” symbol of the right reel 4R is placed on the winning line by the reel stop control. The “a” symbol will not stop on the winning line. That is, even if “Small 2” is won, the “Small 2” will not be won.

  In the same manner, even if “Small Role 8” is won, “Small Role 8” is not won. In addition, even if the “small role 14” is won, the “small role 14” is not won.

  Therefore, “small role bell”, “small role 1”, “small role 2”, “small role 17”, “small role 26”, “small role 20”, “small role 22”, “small role 24”, If the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in this order even if the “small role 25” and “small role 27” are won in duplicate, one incorrect answer small role Only “Small 1” can be awarded. In addition, there are cases where an incorrect answering role is not won by missing.

Accordingly, the “small role 33” stop table includes a “Δ” symbol stop table that defines a range in which the “Δ” symbol of the left reel 4L can be stopped on the winning line, and the “small” 33 stop symbol “C”. “Bell” symbol stop table that defines the range in which the “Bell” symbol can be stopped on the winning line, and the third pull-in range where the “C” symbol of the reel 4R can be stopped on the winning line. And a “C” symbol stop table.

  For example, in the internal lottery, it is assumed that the random number acquired by the CPU 41 from the random number generation circuit 45 is one of 1000 lottery values stored in the lottery category “11”. In this case, “small role bell”, “small role 5”, “small role 6”, “small role 18”, “small role 30”, “small role 21”, “small role 22”, “small role 23”. , “Short 25” and “Short 32” will be won.

  When the left stop button 16L, middle stop button 16C and right stop button 16R are operated in the correct pressing order of the “small role bell”, the “small role bell” is won with a 100% probability regardless of the timing of the operation. To do.

  The left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated in a different order from the correct push order of the “small bell”, for example, the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated in this order. In the event of a failure, the stop table for “small role 5” is referred to.

  The arrangement of symbols for winning “Small 5” is the arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “C” symbol from the left. Therefore, in the “table 5” stop table, a “lip” symbol stop table that defines a range in which the “lip” symbol of the left reel 4L can be stopped on the winning line, and the “reel” symbol “C” of the middle reel 4C. The “A” symbol stop table that defines the first retractable range in which the “A” symbol can be stopped on the winning line, and the “C” symbol of the right reel 4R can be stopped on the winning line. A “C” symbol stop table that defines the third pullable range is stored.

  According to the reel stop control with reference to the “small role 5” stop table, the “Lip” symbol of the left reel 4L stops on the winning line no matter what timing the left stop button 16L is operated. Further, when the symbol of symbol numbers “14” to “21” included in the first retractable range of the middle reel 4C is positioned on the winning line, when the middle stop button 16C is operated, the reel stop control is performed. The “A” symbol of the middle reel 4C stops on the winning line. Furthermore, when the right stop button 16R is operated when the symbols of symbol numbers “1” to “5” included in the third retractable range of the right reel 4R are positioned on the winning line, the reel stop control causes The “C” symbol on the right reel 4R stops on the winning line.

  The symbol “a” of symbol number “20” of the middle reel 4C is included in the symbols that are within the maximum number of four frames drawn from the position upstream of the middle reel 4C, that is, symbol numbers “16” to “20”. When the middle stop button 16C is operated when the symbol is positioned on the stop line, it is theoretically possible to stop the winning line by reel stop control. Accordingly, the pullable range for the symbol “a” of symbol number “20” of the middle reel 4C is a range including symbols of symbol numbers “16” to “20”. This range is completely included in the first retractable range. Therefore, when the middle stop button 16C is operated when the symbols of the symbol numbers “16” to “20” are positioned on the stop line, the “A” symbol of the middle reel 4C is placed on the winning line by the reel stop control. The “a” symbol of symbol number “20” does not stop on the winning line. That is, even if “Small 6” is won, “Small 6” will not be won.

  Therefore, “small role bell”, “small role 5”, “small role 6”, “small role 18”, “small role 30”, “small role 21”, “small role 22”, “small role 23”, Even if the “pocket 25” and “pocket 32” are won in duplicate, if the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in this order, one incorrect answer small role Only “Small 5” can be awarded.

  When the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated in the order of the middle stop button 16C, the left stop button 16L and the right stop button 16R, or when the right stop button 16R is operated first, Stop table for “small role 18”, stop table for “small role 30”, stop table for “small role 21”, stop table for “small role 22”, stop table for “small role 23”, “small role 25” The reel stop control is executed with reference to the stop table for use and the stop table for “small role 32”.

  Stop table for “small role 18”, stop table for “small role 30”, stop table for “small role 21”, stop table for “small role 22”, stop table for “small role 23” and “small role 25” Since the stop table has been described above, the description thereof is omitted here.

  The arrangement of symbols for winning the “small role 32” is the arrangement of “Δ” symbol- “Bell” symbol- “B” symbol from the left. Therefore, the “small role 32” stop table includes a “Δ” symbol stop table that defines a range in which the “△” symbol of the left reel 4L can be stopped on the winning line, and the “small” 32 stop table “C”. "Bell" design stop table that defines the range in which the "Bell" symbol can be stopped on the winning line, and the second retractable range in which the "B" symbol of the reel 4R can be stopped on the winning line And a “B” symbol stop table.

  In the left reel 4L, the symbol “Δ” is the symbol of the symbol number “8”. During the normal game, the symbols included within 4 frames which are the maximum number of frames to be drawn on the upstream side in the rotation direction of the left reel 4L from the symbol “Δ” of symbol number “8”, that is, symbol numbers “4” to “8”. When the left stop button 16L is operated when the symbol is positioned on the stop line, the symbol “Δ” of symbol number “8” can be stopped on the winning line by reel stop control. Therefore, in the “△” symbol stop table of the left reel 4L, the retractable range for the symbol “Δ” symbol of symbol number “8” is set to a range including symbols of symbol numbers “4” to “8”. Yes.

  With the reel stop control referring to the “small role 32” stop table, the “bell” symbol of the middle reel 4C stops on the winning line no matter what timing the middle stop button 16C is operated. Further, when the symbols of the symbol numbers “4” to “8” of the left reel 4L are positioned on the winning line, if the left stop button 16L is operated, the “△” symbol of the left reel 4L is controlled by the reel stop control. Stops on the winning line. Furthermore, when the right stop button 16R is operated when symbols of symbol numbers “6” to “13” included in the second retractable range of the right reel 4R are positioned on the winning line, the reel stop control causes The “B” symbol on the right reel 4R stops on the winning line.

<Effect>

  As described above, when the start lever 15 is operated, the symbol variation display by the rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C, and the right reel 4R is started. Further, a lottery for acquiring a random number and referring to a lottery table 47 in which a plurality of lottery categories are set is determined to determine a lottery category including a lottery value that matches the random number.

  Thereafter, when the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated, the left control button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the left stop 4L corresponding to the right stop button 16R, middle The rotation of the reel 4C and the right reel 4R is stopped. At this time, the rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R is such that the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R are rotated at the timing when the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C and the right stop button 16R are operated. Is stopped within a predetermined maximum number of frames to be drawn based on the position of the symbol arrangement.

  For example, the winning combination determined for the lottery category “1” includes “small role bell” that is a correct small role and “small role 1” and “small role 2” that are incorrect answer small roles. In addition, the lottery category “2” includes the “small role bell” that is the correct answer small role and “small role 3” and “small role 4” that are incorrect answer.

  The “small role bell” is associated with a correct answer that is an array of “bell” symbol− “bell” symbol− “bell” symbol. The “bell” symbols are arranged so that the interval between the “bell” symbols is 4 frames or less, which is the maximum number of frames that can be drawn during a normal game. Therefore, no matter what timing the left stop button 16L, middle stop button 16C and right stop button 16R are operated, the “bell” symbol can be stopped on the winning line by the reel stop control.

  When the lottery category “1” or the lottery category “2” is determined by lottery, if the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in the correct operation order, the correct answer will be displayed. The stop of rotation of the left reel 4L, the middle reel 4C and the right reel 4R is controlled so as to stop on the winning line. When the correct answer stops on the winning line, the “small role bell” is won. That is, when the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in the correct operation order, the “small role bell” is surely won.

  The arrangement of symbols associated with “small role 1” is, from the left, an arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “A” symbol. The arrangement of symbols associated with “small role 2” is, from the left, an arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “a” symbol. Therefore, if the “A” symbol stops on the winning line due to the stop (first stop) of the rotation of the first left reel 4L, there is a possibility of winning both “Small 1” and “Small 2”. There is. Therefore, when the lottery classification “1” is determined by lottery and the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in an operation order that is not correct, the “A” symbol is used for the first stop. It is possible to use a stop table that pulls in on the winning line and stops it.

  A plurality of “A” symbols are arranged within a predetermined first retractable range in which the “A” symbol can be stopped on the winning line by the reel stop control. On the other hand, the “a” symbol is arranged so that the maximum pull-in range of the “a” symbol is included in the first pullable range. Therefore, when the right stop button 16R is operated, even if the “a” symbol is located within the maximum drawing range of the “a” symbol from the winning line, the “A” symbol is the first drawable range from the winning line. Since the “A” symbol is drawn on the winning line, it stops. Therefore, the “small role 2” is not won.

  In addition, the arrangement of symbols associated with “small role 3” is an arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “B” symbol from the left. The arrangement of symbols associated with “small role 4” is the arrangement of “Lip” symbol- “A” symbol- “b” symbol from the left. Therefore, if the “B” symbol stops on the winning line due to the first stop, there is a possibility that both “small role 3” and “small role 4” will be won. Therefore, when the lottery classification “2” is determined by lottery and the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in an operation order that is not correct, the “B” symbol is used for the first stop. It is possible to use a stop table that pulls in on the winning line and stops it.

  A plurality of “B” symbols are arranged within a predetermined second retractable range in which “B” symbols can be stopped on the winning line by reel stop control. On the other hand, the “b” symbol is arranged so that the maximum pull-in range of the “b” symbol is included in the second pullable range. Therefore, when the right stop button 16R is operated, even if the “b” symbol is located within the maximum drawing range of the “b” symbol from the winning line, the “B” symbol is the second pullable range from the winning line. Since it is located inside, the symbol “B” is drawn on the winning line and stops. Accordingly, the “small role 4” is not won.

  Therefore, the lottery classification “1” that makes two or more incorrect answer small roles “Posell 1” and “Posell 2” win the “Poor role bell” and two or more incorrect answer small roles “ In a configuration having a lottery table 47 in which a lottery category “2” for winning a combination of “pocket 3” and “pocket 4” with “pocket bell” is won, the winning rate (acquisition rate) Can be lowered.

  As a result, the player's expectation for operating the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R in the correct operation order can be expanded.

  The lottery value set for the lottery category “1” and the lottery value set for the lottery category “2” are the same, and the number of roles set for the lottery category “1” and the lottery category “2” are set. The number of roles played is the same.

  Thereby, the probability that the lottery section “1” is determined in the lottery and the probability that the lottery section “2” is determined can be made equal. Further, the winning rate of the combination determined in the lottery category “1” and the winning rate of the combination determined in the lottery category “2” can be made equal. As a result, it is possible to make the expectation level for winning the combination determined in one of the lottery category “1” or the lottery category “2”, and the player stops to the left by aiming at a specific range of the symbol arrangement. It is possible to eliminate the capture element of gaining profit by operating the button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R.

  The symbol includes a “C” symbol, and a plurality of “C” symbols are arranged within a predetermined third retractable range in which the “C” symbol can be stopped on the winning line by the reel stop control. The first retractable range, the second retractable range, and the third retractable range are set exclusively so that they do not overlap each other, and all symbols are in the first retractable range and the second retractable range. The range and the third retractable range are allocated.

  In the ART state, the order of operations that are correct for the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R is notified.

  In the ART state, the operation order of the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R is notified, and the left stop button 16L, the middle stop button 16C, and the right stop button 16R are operated in accordance with the notified operation order. As a result, the correct answerer wins surely. Therefore, a player's expectation for the transition from the normal state to the ART state can be expanded.
