In addition, when an arbitrary specified number of inputs can be selected from a plurality of types of specified inputs in a single game, the maximum specified number of inputs can be selected out of a plurality of types of specified inputs. Medals and credited medals are set to the inserted state.

  The random number generation means 110 is a means for generating random numbers for lottery. The random value can be generated based on, for example, a count value of an increment counter (a counter that counts a numerical value so as to circulate a predetermined count range). In this embodiment, the “random number value” is not only a value that is randomly generated in a mathematical sense, but even if the generation itself is regular, the acquisition timing and the like are irregular. Includes a value that can function as a random number.

  The internal lottery means 120 determines whether or not a winning combination is made based on a start signal from a start switch 230 that is actuated by a game start operation on the start lever SL (first press operation on the activated start lever SL). Means for performing an internal lottery, and performs a lottery table selection process, a random number determination process, a lottery flag setting process, and the like.

  In the lottery table selection process, it is determined which internal lottery table is used for the internal lottery table among the plurality of internal lottery tables stored in the internal lottery table storage unit 191 of the storage unit 190. In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the internal lottery table storage unit 191 stores four types of lottery tables A to D as shown in FIG. In each lottery table, each of a plurality of random values (for example, 65536 random values from 0 to 65535) is associated with various combinations such as a replay, a small combination, and a bonus.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, as a small role, Bell (first small role), incorrect answer small role 1 (second small role), incorrect answer small role 2 (second small role), incorrect answer Small combination 3 (second small combination), incorrect answer small combination 4 (second small combination), incorrect answer small combination 5 (second small combination), incorrect answer small combination 6 (second small combination), Incorrect answering small part 7 (second small part), Incorrect answering small part 8 (second small part), control small part 1, control small part 2, control small part 3, control small part 4 (second small part) Hand), control small part 5 (second small part), and cherry are prepared, and the batting order bell L1, batting order bell L2, batting order bell L3, batting order bell L4, batting order bell in the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table C C1, batting order bell C2, batting order bell C4, batting order bell R1, batting order bell R2, batting order bell R3, batting order bell R4 seem to win multiple types of small roles in one internal lottery. A plurality of types of small prize is meant that the associated to the same random number.

  Specifically, each batting order bell will be described with reference to FIG. 4. The batting order bell L1 is a winning combination of the bell, the incorrect answer small role 1, the incorrect answer small role 8, the control small role 1, and the control small role 2. It shows that In addition, the batting order bell L2 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 2, the incorrect answering changer 7, the control bonus 1 and the control bonus 2 are won. In addition, the batting order bell L3 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 3, the incorrect answering changer 6, the control changer 1, and the control changer 3 are won. Further, the batting order bell L4 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 4, the incorrect answering role 5, the control bonus 1 and the control bonus 3 are won.

  In addition, the batting order bell C1 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 1, the incorrect answering changer 8, and the control answering role 4 are won in duplicate. In addition, the batting order bell C2 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering small role 2, the incorrect answering small number 7, and the control small number 4 are won in succession. In addition, the batting order bell C3 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering small role 3, the incorrect answering small number 6, and the control small number 4 are won in succession. The batting order bell C4 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 4, the incorrect answering changer 5, and the control bonus 4 are won in duplicate.

  In addition, the batting order bell R1 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 1, the incorrect answering changer 8, and the control changer 5 are won in duplicate. In addition, the batting order bell R2 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering small role 2, the incorrect answering small number 7, and the control small number 5 are won.

The batting order bell R4 indicates that the bell, the incorrect answering role 4, the incorrect answering changer 5, and the control bonus 5 are won in duplicate. As described above, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, in each batting order bell, the bell, two types of incorrect answer small roles, and one type or two types of control small roles are won, and the same number as the bell is not won. The types of correct small roles and the number and combination of control small roles are different.

  In the gaming machine of this embodiment, normal replay and special replay are prepared as replays. In the internal lottery table A, internal lottery table B, and internal lottery table C, at least one of normal replay and special replay is a lottery target. However, in the internal lottery table D, any replay is excluded from the lottery target.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the first big bonus (BB1: specific bonus) and the second big bonus (BB2) are prepared as bonuses. In the internal lottery table A, the first big bonus (BB1) and The second big bonus (BB2) is set as a lottery object, but in the internal lottery table B, the internal lottery table C, and the internal lottery table D, any bonus is excluded from the lottery object.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, the second bonus establishment state, the first bonus state, and the second bonus state can be set as the gaming state. In the lottery table selection process, One of the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D is selected as an internal lottery table to be used in the internal lottery according to the gaming state.

  In the random number determination process, based on the start signal from the start switch 230, a random number value (lottery random number) is acquired from the random number generation unit 110 for each game, and the internal lottery table storage unit 191 of the storage unit 190 for the acquired random number value. It is determined whether or not the winning combination is won with reference to the internal lottery table stored in the table.

  In the lottery flag setting process, the lottery flag corresponding to the winning combination determined to be won based on the result of the random number determination process is changed from the non-winning state (first flag state, off state) to the winning state (second flag state). , ON state). In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when two or more types of winning combinations are won, a lottery flag corresponding to each of the two or more types of winning winning combinations is set to a winning state. Note that the lottery flag setting information is stored in the lottery flag storage unit 192 of the storage unit 190.

  In addition, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, a lottery flag (carry-over possible flag) that can carry on the winning state for the next game until winning, and a non-winning state without carrying the winning state on the next game regardless of winning. A lottery flag (a carry-over impossible flag) that is reset to the winning state is prepared. The first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are associated with the former carry-over possible flag, and the small combination and replay are associated with the latter carry-over impossible flag. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, when the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the internal lottery, the winning state of the lottery flag of the winning big bonus is carried over until the winning big bonus is won. Process. At this time, the internal lottery means 120 performs an internal lottery that determines whether or not the small role and replay are successful even in a game in which the winning state of the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is carried over. Is going. In other words, in the lottery flag setting process, if the winning combination of the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is carried over, if a small role or replay is won, it will be won already. A lottery flag corresponding to two or more types of combinations including a big bonus lottery flag and a small role won in the internal lottery or a replay lottery flag is set in a winning state.

  The reel control means 130 starts rotation driving of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 by a stepping motor based on a start signal from a start switch 230 that is actuated by a game start operation to the start lever SL by the player. Press the stop buttons B1 to B3 (stop operation means) corresponding to the reels in which the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are normally rotating at a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm: a rotation speed of about 80 rotations per minute). The control which makes the stop operation by this effective is performed, and the control which stops the 1st reel R1-3rd reel R3 rotationally driven by the stepping motor in the aspect according to the setting state (result of an internal lottery) of a lottery flag I do.

  The reel controller 130 stops the reel from the stop switch 240 when the stop switch 240 is actuated when the player presses the stop buttons B1 to B3 in a state where the stop operation for the stop buttons B1 to B3 is enabled. Based on the signal, the supply of the drive pulse (motor drive signal) to the stepping motor of the reel unit 310 is stopped to perform control to stop each of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3.

  That is, the reel controller 130 determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the pressed button of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 each time the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. The reel is stopped at the stop position. In the gaming machine of this embodiment, pressing the stop button B1 corresponds to an operation for stopping the first reel R1, and pressing the stop button B2 is an operation for stopping the second reel R2. Correspondingly, pressing the stop button B3 corresponds to an operation for stopping the third reel R3. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is changed, the stopping order of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is changed.

  In the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, in principle, the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are rotating corresponding to the pressed stop button within 190 ms from the time when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. In the first bonus state and the second bonus state, the first reel R1 is exceptionally stopped within 75 ms from the point when the stop button B1 is pressed, and the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped. In, the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button is stopped within 190 ms from the time when the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed. When the rotating reel is stopped within 190 ms from the time when the stop button is pressed, the stop position of each rotating reel is 0 frames from the time when the stop button is pressed until the reel stops. -4 frames (predetermined pull-in range, first pull-in range). In addition, when a rotating reel is stopped within 75 ms from the time when the stop button is pressed, the number of frames required from the time when the stop button is pressed until the reel stops is in a range of 0 to 1 frame (narrower than a predetermined pull-in range). (The pull-in range, the second pull-in range). The reel control means 130 displays the symbol corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button that has been pressed among the stop buttons B1 to B3. Within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames (when stopped within 190 ms), or within the range of 0 frame to 1 frame (stops within 75 ms) with respect to the display position on the active line ), The symbol corresponding to the combination for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state is displayed at the display position on the active line. The reel is stopped.

  Specifically, the reel control unit 130 obtains the stop control table stored in the stop control table storage unit 193 of the storage unit 190 and the process for obtaining the stop position of the rotating reel by logic calculation (logic calculation process). A process for determining the stop position of the rotating reel (table reference process) is performed with reference.

  First, in the logic calculation process, a range of 0 frame to 4 frames from the pressing detection position, which is the position of the reel at the time of operation of the stop switch 240 (when the pressing of the stop button is detected) according to the priority order data determined for each combination. Priorities are obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames existing in the frame. In the first bonus state and the second bonus state, for the first reel R1, priority is obtained for the stop position candidates for two frames existing within the range of 0 frame to 1 frame from the pressing detection position, For the two reels R2 and the third reel R3, the priority is obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames corresponding to the pressed detection position in the same manner as described above. Then, the stop position candidate with the highest priority among the priorities of the respective stop position candidates is determined as the actual stop position. However, in logic calculation processing, the same priority may be obtained for a plurality of stop position candidates depending on the result of the internal lottery, the pressed detection position, etc., and there are a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority. In such a case, the actual stop position is determined by a table reference process described later.

  In particular, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, the priority order is determined in the order of “replay> small role> bonus”, and the lottery flags relating to two or more types of roles are set to the internal winning state in the logic operation processing. In this case, according to the priority order associated with each combination, the stop position including the symbols constituting the winning combination form with the lower priority for the candidate of the stop position including the symbols constituting the winning pattern with the higher priority combination The priority is obtained so that the priority is higher than the candidates of

  In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the priority for the stop position candidate when multiple types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is determined according to the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the active line. There is a case where the priority is determined according to the number of medals paid out based on a predetermined payout for the small role, and the stop position candidate is determined according to the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the effective line. The priority for each stop position candidate is such that the higher the stop position, the higher the number of symbol combinations that indicate the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line. If the priority for the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of medals paid out, the medal is based on the payout of the small role corresponding to the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line. Out number stop increased position seek priority for the candidate of each stop position so as priority (stop position capable of winning a prize is often small win) increases. However, if the priority for the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of medals paid out, if a small role with the same payout is won in duplicate, the stop position where each small role can be won The priorities of the candidates are treated as the same.

  Further, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when the priority is obtained according to the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the active line at the time of winning one of the batting order bells in the first bonus establishment state or the second bonus establishment state, When there are a plurality of types of bonus symbol combinations that can be displayed on the active line for a single stop position candidate, the plurality of types of bonus symbol combinations are handled as one or less types. .

  In this embodiment, when the batting order bell is won, a logic operation corresponding to the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is performed. Specifically, batting order bell L1, batting order bell L3, batting order bell L4, batting order bell C1, batting order bell C2, batting order bell C3, batting order bell C4, batting order bell R1, batting order bell R2, batting order bell R3, batting order The correct answer order is set for each of the bells R4, and an order different from the correct answer order is treated as an incorrect answer order. Then, when any of the batting order bells is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, a logic operation is performed to determine the priority according to the number of medals paid out, and the number of medals paid out is the largest. The priority is determined so that the priority of the candidate stop position becomes the highest. Also, if any of the hitting bells is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the incorrect answering order, the priority for the stop position candidates according to the types of symbol combinations that can be displayed on the active line The priority is calculated so that the priority of the stop position candidate having the largest number of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line is the highest. In this embodiment, the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L3, the batting order bell L4, the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell C3, the batting order bell C4, the batting order bell R1, the batting order bell R2, the batting order bell R3, If any of the batting order bells R4 is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, the priority of the stop position candidates that maximizes the number of medals paid out when the first reel is stopped. If the reel is stopped in the second and subsequent reels in the correct answer order, the priority of the stop position candidate with the largest number of payout medals becomes higher, and the incorrect answer order in the reels that stop in the second or later In this case, the priority of the stop position candidates that can display the symbol combinations indicating the most winning patterns is increased.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 14, among a plurality of types of small roles included in each batting order bell, the bell has a single type of symbol combination indicating 15 payouts and a winning pattern. Yes, Illegal Answers 1, Illegal Answers 2, Illegal Answers 3, Illegal Answers 4, Illegal Answers 5, Illegal Answers 6, Illegal Answers 7, and Illegal Answers 8 Are all 8 types of symbol combinations that show a winning pattern with a single payout, and each of the control small part 1, control small part 2, and control small part 3 constitutes a winning form with a single payout There are one type of symbol combination to be performed, and each of the control combination 4 and the control combination 5 has four types of symbol combinations each having a single payout and indicating a winning pattern. For this reason, when any of the batting order bells is won, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, the priority of the stop position candidates that can win a bell with a large number of payout medals is the highest. When the logic operation is performed so as to increase, and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the incorrect answering order, it is possible to win an incorrect answer small role or a control small role that increases the types of symbol combinations indicating the winning mode. The logic operation is performed so that the priority of the stop position candidate is the highest.

  In the logic calculation process, so-called pull-in process and kick-out process are performed as processes for obtaining candidate reel stop positions. The pull-in process is a process of obtaining reel stop position candidates so that a winning combination whose lottery flag is set to the winning state can be won as much as possible. On the other hand, the kicking process is a process of obtaining reel stop position candidates so that a combination whose lottery flag is set to a non-winning state cannot be won. In this way, the reel control means 130 can stop the symbol of the winning combination with the lottery flag set in the winning state while winning the symbol of the winning combination with the lottery flag set in the non-winning state. Logic calculation processing is performed to obtain a candidate stop position of the reel so as not to stop.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the reel unit 310 includes a reel index 315 made of a photosensor, and the reel control means 130 is based on a reference position signal detected by the reel index 315 every time the reel makes one revolution. Thus, the current rotation state of the reel can be monitored by obtaining the rotation angle (the number of rotation steps of the rotation axis of the stepping motor) from the reel reference position (the frame detected by the reel index 315). It has become. That is, the reel control unit 130 can obtain the position of the reel when the stop switch 240 is operated by obtaining the rotation angle from the reference position of the reel.

  In the table reference process, when a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority are obtained as a result of the logic operation process, the stop control table storage means of the storage means 190 indicates which position is set as the stop position. This is determined with reference to the stop control table stored in 193.

  Here, in the stop control table, according to the setting state of the lottery flag, the actual position is detected from the press detection position that is the position of the reel at the time when the stop switch 240 is activated (when the stop button is pressed) and the actual press detection position. A correspondence relationship with the number of sliding frames indicating the amount of rotation to the stop position is set. In the stop control table, the correspondence relationship between the pressed detection position and the actual stop position may be set according to the setting state of the lottery flag.

The special replay wins when pressed in the first pressing order), and the slide piece relative to the pressed detection position so that the normal replay wins when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in an order other than the specific batting order. Number is set.

  The winning determination means 140 performs a process of determining whether or not a winning combination has been won based on the stop mode of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Specifically, with reference to the winning determination table stored in the winning determination table storage means 194 of the storage means 190, it is displayed on the active line when all of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped. It is determined whether or not the symbol combination is in the form of a predetermined winning combination. Then, depending on the symbol combination displayed on the activated line in a state where each reel is stopped, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 14, the first big bonus (BB1), the second big bonus (BB2), the normal replay, the special Replay, Bell, Incorrect answering quiz 1, Incorrect answering quiz 2, Incorrect answering quiz 3, Incorrect answering quiz 4, Incorrect answering quiz 5, Incorrect answering quiz 6, Incorrect answering quiz 7, Incorrect answering quiz 8. A winning combination determination table is prepared so that it is possible to determine whether or not there is a winning of a control bonus 1, a controlling bonus 2, a controlling bonus 3, a controlling bonus 4, a controlling bonus 5, and a cherry. It should be noted that “ANY” in the cherry winning type in FIG. 14 indicates that any symbol may be used.

  In the present embodiment, the incorrect answering role 1, the incorrect answering role 2, the incorrect answering role 3, the incorrect answering role 4, the incorrect answering role 5, the incorrect answering role 6, the incorrect answering role 7, the incorrect answer Symbol combinations indicating eight types of winning combinations are set for each of the small combinations 8, and symbol combinations indicating four types of winning patterns are respectively set for the control small portion 4 and the control small portion 5. All of them are more than the types of symbol combinations that indicate the winning style of the bell. The winning style of the bell and the winning styles of the control bonus 1, the control bonus 2 and the control bonus 3 are as follows. A common symbol is assigned to one reel R1, and the bell winning form and the winning combination of the control small part 4 are assigned a common symbol to the second reel R2, and the bell winning form and the controlling small part are assigned. The winning pattern of 5 means that the common symbol for the third reel R3 is It is devoted. In addition, the first big bonus (BB1), the incorrect answering role 1, the incorrect answering role 2, the incorrect answering role 3, the incorrect answering role 4, the incorrect answering role 5, the incorrect answering role 6, and the incorrect answering role The winning symbols of 7 and the incorrect answering combination 8 are assigned a common symbol for each of the first reel R1, the second reel R2, and the third reel R3.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the winning process is executed based on the determination result of the winning determination means 140. As the winning process, for example, a small role (bell, incorrect answer small role 1, incorrect answer small role 2, incorrect answer small role 3, incorrect answer small role 4, incorrect answer small role 5, incorrect answer small role 6, In the case where the correct answer combination 7, the incorrect answer combination 8, the control combination 1, the control combination 2, the control combination 3, the control combination 4, the control combination 5, and cherry) are won, the payout control means 150 makes a medal If the replay (normal replay, special replay) wins, the replay processing means 160 performs the replay processing, and the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are won. In such a case, a gaming state transition control process is performed by the gaming state transition control means 170 to transition the gaming state.

  The payout control means 150 performs payout control processing relating to the payout of medals according to the game result. Specifically, when a small combination wins, the number of medals to be paid out in the game is determined based on a predetermined payout for each combination, and the medals corresponding to the determined number of payouts are assigned to the hopper unit 320 ( The payout device is controlled to pay out. In the present embodiment, there is an upper limit (for example, 15) for the number of medals paid out in one game, and when the total number of payouts exceeds the upper limit, the number corresponding to the upper limit is set in the game. Determined as the number of medals to be paid out.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 14, the payout of the small role is determined by the specified number of inputs, and when the specified number of inputs is 3, the bell payout is set higher than the specified input number. However, the dividends for the small roles other than the bell are set lower than the specified number of inputs, and if the specified number of inputs is two, the dividends for all small roles including the bell will be the same as the specified input number. Is set.

  The hopper unit 320 performs an operation of paying out medals of the payout number instructed by the payout control means 150. The hopper unit 320 is provided with a payout medal detection switch 325 that operates every time a medal is paid out. The payout control means 150 is actually operated from the hopper unit 320 based on an input signal from the payout medal detection switch 325. It is configured to be able to manage the number of medals paid out.

  If credits (internal storage) of medals are permitted, instead of actually paying out medals by the hopper unit 320, the number of credits stored in a credit storage area (not shown) of the storage unit 190 (not shown) A credit addition process for adding the number of payouts to the number of credited medals is performed to virtually pay out medals.

  When the replay is won, the replay processing means 160 performs a replay process (regame process) for setting the same preparation state as the previous game without requiring insertion of medals owned by the player for the next game. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when a replay is won, an automatic insertion is performed in which the same number of medals as the previous game are automatically inserted without using the player's own medals (including credit medals). Processing is performed, and the next game start operation for the start lever SL is waited in a state where the same effective line as the previous game is set.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the gaming state transition control means 170 shifts the gaming state between the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, the second bonus establishment state, the first bonus state, and the second bonus state. Perform migration control processing. As the game condition transition condition, one condition may be defined, or a plurality of conditions may be defined. In the case where a plurality of conditions are determined, the gaming state is determined based on the fact that one of the plurality of predetermined conditions is satisfied or all of the plurality of predetermined conditions are satisfied. It is possible to shift to another gaming state.

  The normal state is a gaming state corresponding to the initial state among a plurality of types of gaming states, and a transition from the normal state to the first bonus establishment state or the second bonus establishment state is possible. Specifically, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the normal state, the process proceeds to the first bonus establishment state, and when the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the normal state, the second bonus is established. Transition to the state. In the normal state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of replay is set to about 1 / 7.3, and the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus ( An internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table A in which BB2) is set as a lottery target. In the internal lottery table A, the winning probability of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to about 1/8, and the winning probability of the second big bonus (BB2) is set to about 1 / 2.5. That is, in the normal state, the internal lottery is performed so that the second big bonus (BB2) is won with higher probability than the first big bonus (BB1).

  The first bonus establishment state is a gaming state that shifts when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the internal lottery. In the first bonus establishment state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of replay is set to about 1 / 1.5, and the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus are set. An internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table B from which the bonus (BB2) is excluded from the lottery targets. In the internal lottery table B referred to in the first bonus establishment state, as shown in FIG. 3, there is no occurrence of losing in the internal lottery, and a small role or replay is always won. .

  Further, in the first bonus establishment state, the lottery flag corresponding to the first big bonus (BB1) is maintained in the winning state until the first big bonus (BB1) wins, and indicates a winning form of the first big bonus (BB1). When the symbol combination is displayed on the activated line, the gaming state transition control means 170 shifts the gaming state from the first bonus establishment state to the first bonus state.

  The first bonus state is a gaming state that shifts when the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is displayed on the active line. In the first bonus state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, an internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table D in which all random numbers are associated with a losing (unauthorized). However, regardless of the result of the internal lottery, the lottery flags for all the small roles are forcibly set to the winning state, and for the first reel R1, the drawing range of the symbols is set to 0 frame to 1 frame, For the two reels R2 and the third reel R3, the drawing range of the symbols is set to 0 to 4 frames, and the reels are controlled to stop. In the first bonus state, the game state is more advantageous to the player than the normal state in that the lottery flag of the small role becomes a winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery.

  In the first bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied based on the total number of medals paid out in the first bonus state, and medals exceeding a predetermined number (for example, 50) are paid out. Then, the gaming state transition control means 170 performs control to end the first bonus state and return the gaming state to the normal state.

  The second bonus establishment state is a gaming state that shifts when the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the internal lottery. In the second bonus establishment state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of replay is set to about 1 / 7.3, and the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus are set. An internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table C in which the bonus (BB2) is excluded from the lottery is performed. The internal lottery table C referred to in the second bonus establishment state has a lower replay win probability than the internal lottery table B referred to in the first bonus establishment state. It is supposed to be. That is, the second bonus establishment state is a gaming state that is more disadvantageous than the first bonus establishment state in that the winning probability of replay is lower than that of the first bonus establishment state.

  Further, in the second bonus establishment state, the lottery flag corresponding to the second big bonus (BB2) is maintained in the winning state until the second big bonus (BB2) wins, indicating the winning mode of the second big bonus (BB2). When the symbol combination is displayed on the activated line, the gaming state transition control means 170 shifts the gaming state from the second bonus establishment state to the second bonus state.

  The second bonus state is a gaming state that shifts when the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the second big bonus (BB2) is displayed on the active line. In the second bonus state, an internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table D in which all random numbers among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. However, regardless of the result of the internal lottery, the lottery flags for all the small roles are forcibly set to the winning state, and for the first reel R1, the drawing range of the symbols is set to 0 frame to 1 frame, For the two reels R2 and the third reel R3, the drawing range of the symbols is set to 0 to 4 frames, and the reels are controlled to stop. In the second bonus state, the game state is more advantageous to the player than the normal state in that the lottery flag of the small role is in a winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery.

  In the second bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied based on the total number of medals paid out in the second bonus state, and medals exceeding a predetermined number (for example, two) are paid out. Then, the gaming state transition control means 170 performs control to end the second bonus state and return the gaming state to the normal state. In the present embodiment, the number of medal payouts (for example, two) as the end condition for the second bonus state is smaller than the number of medal payouts (for example, 50) as the end condition for the first bonus state. Therefore, the second bonus state ends with a smaller number of games than the first bonus state.

  The effect control means 180 uses the display effect performed using the display device 330 (an example of the effect device) or the audio device 340 (an example of the effect device) based on the effect data stored in the effect data storage means 195. Control related to the sound production to be performed. For example, a lamp or LED is turned on or blinked according to the occurrence of a gaming event such as insertion of a medal, operation on a bet button B0, start lever SL, stop buttons B1 to B3, or a change in gaming state, or a liquid crystal display LCD (display By changing the display content of one example of the device 330 or by outputting sound from a speaker (an example of the acoustic device 340), the execution control of the effect for exciting the game or assisting the game is performed.

  Particularly in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the effect control means 180 changes the effect state between a plurality of types of effect states including the AT preparation state and the AT state, and the effect state is changed to the assist time state ( (AT state: special effect state), the end condition of the AT state is determined based on the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198, and the AT state is terminated when the end condition of the AT state is satisfied.

  More specifically, the effect control means 180 performs an AT lottery (predetermined effect lottery) when a cherry is won in the internal lottery in the normal state, the first bonus established state, or the second bonus established state. . In the AT lottery, any of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random number value is compared with the AT lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 197, and according to the comparison result. It is determined whether or not the AT lottery is won. In the AT lottery table, for example, each of the 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either normal winning, special winning or losing, and the random value acquired in the AT lottery is the AT lottery. When the table is associated with the normal winning or the special winning, it is determined that the AT lottery is won. Then, the effect control means 180 sets the effect state to the AT ready state by setting the AT preparation flag in the effect flag storage means 196 based on the winning of the AT lottery, and the special replay is won in the AT ready state. Based on this, the production state is set to the AT state by setting the AT flag in the production flag storage means 196. However, at this time, the AT preparation flag set in the effect flag storage means 196 is cleared. Note that an opportunity other than the winning of the cherry (for example, the winning of the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) in the normal state) may be separately provided as an AT lottery opportunity.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a given addition value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 based on the winning of the AT lottery. In particular, in this embodiment, the added value is different between the case where the result of the AT lottery is a normal winning and the case where the result is a special winning, and when the result of the AT lottery is a normal winning, the added value is For example, if the value corresponding to 100 games is set to “100” and the result of the AT lottery is a special win, the added value is set to “500” as a value corresponding to 500 games, for example. Is done. The added value is not limited to the above example, and can be arbitrarily set. In addition, when a cherry is won in an AT state game, the given added value is added to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198. You may be able to.

  Further, the production control means 180 decrement updates by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of times of one game from the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 every time a game in the AT state (assist time game) is performed. I do. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is started from the next game of the game in which the special replay is won in the first bonus establishment state. However, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 may be started from the next game of the game won in the AT lottery. When the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), it is determined that the AT condition end condition is satisfied, and the AT flag set in the effect flag storage unit 196 is cleared. Then, control for terminating the AT state is performed. In the present embodiment, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the AT state, it is determined that the update interruption condition of the AT end determination counter 198 is satisfied. In this case, the effect state is set to the AT ready state. And the decrement update relating to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is interrupted, and the effect state is returned to the AT state when the gaming state shifts to the first bonus establishment state after the end of the first bonus state. Then, the decrement update of the AT end determination counter 198 is resumed, and an undigested game is performed. When the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the AT state, the AT state is ended even if the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 has not reached the threshold value, and the first big bonus (BB1) The stored value of the AT end determination counter 199 may be reset to an initial value (for example, 0) with winning.

  In addition, when the production state is the AT preparation state or the AT state, the production control means 180 displays a first winning assistance production that informs the pressing order of the stop button and assists the winning of the bell when the batting order bell is won. 330 and the sound apparatus 340 are controlled. Various effects can be adopted as the first winning assistance effect. For example, an effect image for notifying the correct batting order according to the winning batting order bell is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, or according to the winning batting order bell. It is possible to turn on a lamp for notifying the correct hit order, or to output a sound for notifying the correct hit order according to the selected hit order bell from the speaker. Note that in this embodiment, the bell always wins and 15 medals can be obtained when the stop button is pressed along the correct hit order notified in the first prize assisting effect. Can increase the number of medals on hand.

In addition, when the production state is the AT preparation state, the production control means 180 informs the stop button pressing order and assists the special replay winning when the normal replay and the special replay are selected and won. Control is performed to cause the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to execute the effect. Various effects can be adopted as the second winning assistance effect, for example, a specific batting order (B3 → B1 → B2, B3 → B2 → B1: stop button B3 can be pressed first) that allows a special replay to be awarded. A specific striking order (B3 → B1 → B2, B3 → B2 → B1: order of first pressing the stop button B3) that can display an effect image informing the liquid crystal display LCD or win a special replay. A sound for notifying the specific batting order (B3 → B1 → B2, B3 → B2 → B1: order of first pressing the stop button B3) which can turn on the lamp for informing the player or win a special replay is output from the speaker. You can make it. In the present embodiment, when the production state is the AT preparation state, the production state is shifted to the AT state based on the special replay winning, and the AT end determination counter 198 is started to be updated. If the player presses the stop button according to the second prize assisting effect, it is possible to recognize that the counting of the number of games is started when the special replay wins.
Further, when the production state is the AT preparation state, the production control unit 180 wins the second big bonus (BB2) in the internal lottery in the normal state, or when the result of the internal lottery is lost in the second bonus establishment state. (When only the lottery flag of the second big bonus (BB2) is set to the winning state), the second big bonus is obtained by pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 in the order of pressing the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 first. Control is performed to cause the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to perform a notification effect for notifying that the symbol combination “red 7B, red 7A, red 7B” indicating the winning mode of (BB2) is displayed on the effective winning line. As the notification effect, various effects can be adopted. For example, a symbol combination of “red 7B / red 7A / red 7B” indicating a winning pattern of the second big bonus (BB2) is displayed on the effective winning line. Timing that can be pressed (the order in which the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is first pressed), and two red 7 symbols arranged in succession can be drawn to the display position on the active line The effect image informing that the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed can be displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD. In the present embodiment, when the symbol combination “red 7B, red 7A, red 7B” is displayed on the effective pay line, the symbol combination “red 7A, red 7A, red 7A” is displayed on the first reel R1. It is displayed on an invalid line consisting of a combination of the middle stage, the middle stage of the second reel R2, and the middle stage of the third reel R3. In the present embodiment, when the second big bonus (BB2) is won, the gaming state returns to the normal state, and when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the normal state, the state shifts to the first bonus establishment state. Therefore, if the player presses the stop button at an appropriate timing in accordance with the pressing order notified by the notification effect, the symbol combination “red 7A / red 7A / red 7A” is displayed on the invalid line. This makes it possible to recognize that a game is being played in the AT state.

  Further, the effect control means 180 is a penalty for generating a penalty that is disadvantageous to the player based on the fact that the second big bonus (BB2) is won when the effect state is not the AT ready state in the second bonus establishment state. Process. In particular, in the present embodiment, as the penalty process, a process of setting the effect state to a penalty state in which execution of the AT lottery is prohibited until a certain number of games (for example, 30 times) is consumed is performed. Specifically, the performance state is set to the penalty state in accordance with the winning of the second big bonus (BB2) when the performance state is not the AT preparation state, and the number of games that becomes the penalty condition end condition in the penalty counter 199 A value (for example, 30) corresponding to (for example, 30 times) is set. In the penalty state, the production control means 180 does not perform the AT lottery even if the cherry is won in the internal lottery, and every time a game in the penalty state is performed, the number of games for one time is determined from the stored value of the penalty counter 199. The decrement is updated by subtracting a value corresponding to (for example, 1), the penalty state is terminated based on the stored value of the penalty counter 199 reaching a predetermined value (for example, 0), and the AT based on the winning of the cherry Allow the lottery to run. It should be noted that the number of games as a penalty condition end condition is not constant, and may be selected from a plurality of types of end conditions by lottery or the like. The termination condition of the penalty state is not limited to the number of games, and may be a predetermined number of winning combinations, a transition to a predetermined gaming state (for example, a transition to a second bonus establishment state), or the like.

  As penalty processing, for example, there are predetermined conditions such as processing for discarding the result of AT lottery until a predetermined condition is satisfied, such as digesting a certain number of games, and digesting a certain number of games even if winning the AT lottery. It is possible to perform processing for suspending the transition to the AT ready state until it is established.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a penalty process for generating a penalty even when the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 stops for the first time in a game in which the effect state is neither the AT ready state nor the AT state. That is, in this embodiment, when neither the AT ready state nor the AT state is in effect, when the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is first pressed, the AT is satisfied until a predetermined condition is satisfied (until a certain number of games are consumed). There is a penalty that the opportunity to transition to the ready state is lost or the transition to the AT ready state is delayed.

  Note that the functional block configuration of the present embodiment can also be applied to a computer system (including a game system). In these systems, the function is realized by downloading a program that causes the computer to function as the game control means 100 of the present embodiment from an information storage medium such as a CD or DVD or a Web server on the Internet via a network. be able to. In the above computer system, the medal insertion switch 210, the bet switch 220, the start switch 230, the stop switch 240 and the like virtually function their functions with respect to operation means such as a keyboard, a pointing device (mouse, etc.), or a controller. This can be realized by assigning. In the above computer system, the reel unit 310, the hopper unit 320, and the like are not indispensable constituent elements. These device units virtually control their functions by controlling images displayed on the display (display device 330). Can be realized.

2. In this embodiment, as a symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), the first symbol combination ("BL / red 7A / red 7A") and the second symbol combination ("blue") are used. 7 / Red 7B / BL, Red 7A / Red 7B / BL, Red 7C / Red 7B / BL, BAR / Red 7B / BL, Replay / Red 7B / Red 7B, Replay "Red 7B / Red 7C", "Replay / Red 7B / WMA", "Replay / Red 7B / WMB", "Blue 7 / Red 7C / BL", "Red 7A / Red 7C / BL", "Red 7C / Red" 7C • BL ”,“ BAR • Red 7C • BL ”,“ Replay • Red 7C • Red 7B ”,“ Replay • Red 7C • Red 7C ”,“ Replay • Red 7C • WMA ”,“ Replay • Red 7C • WMB ” "," Blue 7, BL, Red 7B "," Blue 7, BL, Red 7C "," Blue 7, BL, WM ""A","Blue 7 / BL / WMB", "Red 7A / BL / Red 7B", "Red 7A / BL / Red 7C", "Red 7A / BL / WMA", "Red 7A / BL / WMB", "Red 7C · BL · Red 7B", "Red 7C · BL · Red 7C", "Red 7C · BL · WMA", "Red 7C · BL · WMB", "BAR · BL · Red 7B", "BAR · BL / Red 7C, BAR / BL / WMA, BAR / BL / WMB, Blue 7 / WMA / BL, Red 7A / WMA / BL, Red 7C / WMA / BL, “BAR / WMA / BL”, “Replay / WMA / Red 7B”, “Replay / WMA / Red 7C”, “Replay / WMA / WMA”, “Replay / WMA / WMB”, “Blue 7 / WMB / BL”, "Red 7A · WMB · BL", "Red 7C · WMB · BL", "BAR · WMB · BL", Replay / WMB / Red 7B ”,“ Replay / WMB / Red 7C ”,“ Replay / WMB / WMA ”,“ Replay / WMB / WMB ”) and the first big bonus (BB1) lottery flag is won The first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) according to the setting state of the lottery flag of the combination (small role, replay) other than the first big bonus (BB1) when set to the state The first stop that stops the rotating reel so as to display the symbol constituting the symbol at the display position on the active line in preference to the symbol constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). Control and stop the rotating reel so that the symbols constituting the second symbol combination are displayed at the display position on the active line in preference to the symbols constituting the first symbol combination. It adopts a method of switching between the second stop control. In the present embodiment, when the first stop control is performed and any one of the reels is stopped, the symbols and the second symbol combinations constituting the first symbol combination are stopped when the rotating reel is stopped. If any of the symbols that make up can be displayed at the display position on the active line, the reel that is stopped when the symbols that make up the first symbol combination are displayed at the display position on the effective pay line The symbol constituting the first symbol combination is given priority over the symbol constituting the second symbol combination on the condition that the winning combination can be won in relation to the display symbol.

  Specifically, in the present embodiment, in the internal lottery in the normal state, the first big bonus (BB1) is won alone. That is, in a game in which the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the internal lottery, only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state. The first symbol combination is constituted by the bell symbol “BL” arranged so that the first reel R1 can be pulled into the display position on the effective line regardless of the pressing timing of the stop button B1. The reel R2 and the third reel R3 are configured by a red 7 pattern A “red 7A” arranged so that there is a pressing timing that cannot be displayed at a display position on the effective line. As for the second symbol combination, for the first reel R1, blue 7 symbol "blue 7", red 7 symbol A "red 7A", red 7 symbol C "red 7C", BAR symbol "BAR", bell symbol "BL" , And the replay symbol “RP” can be drawn into the display position on the active line regardless of the timing of pressing the stop button B1, and the red reels of the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are red. 7 symbol B “red 7B”, red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, bell symbol “BL”, watermelon symbol A “WMA” and watermelon symbol B “WMB”, regardless of the press timing of the stop button B2 Since it can be drawn to the display position on the effective line, it can be displayed at the display position on the effective line regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3. Is constituted by symbols are arranged as. In the present embodiment, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the first reel R1 is stopped prior to the second reel R2 and the third reel R3. For the first reel R1, the bell symbol "BL" constituting the first symbol combination, the blue 7 symbol "blue 7", the red 7 symbol A "red 7A", red 7 constituting the second symbol combination. Control is performed to display at the display position on the effective line in preference to the symbol C “red 7C”, the BAR symbol “BAR”, and the replay symbol “RP”. Hereinafter, the case where only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17.

  First, the case where the stop button B1 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B2 and B3 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 16A, in a state where the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are all rotating, the 5th replay symbol “RP” is positioned in the upper row with respect to the first reel R1, and 6 in the middle row. If the stop button B1 is pressed at the timing when the No. 7 bell symbol “BL” is located and the No. 7 blue 7 symbol “Blue 7” is located in the lower row, the press detection position shown in FIG. In the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, there are five types of stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 16 (B) to 16 (F). In the present embodiment, for these five types of stop position candidates, the priority based on the priority order of each combination is obtained, and a logic operation for extracting the stop position candidate with the highest priority is performed.

  Here, in the present embodiment, there are a first symbol combination and a second symbol combination as symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and only the lower row of the first reel R1 is on the active line. Is set as the display position. In the example shown in FIG. 16B, the blue 7 symbol “blue 7”, which is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting the second symbol combination, is displayed in the lower row, and in the example shown in FIG. The bell symbol “BL”, which is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting one symbol combination, is displayed in the lower stage, and in the example shown in FIG. 16D, the symbol is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting the second symbol combination. The replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the lower row, and in the example shown in FIG. 16 (E), the watermelon symbol B “WMB” which is not the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting either the first symbol combination or the second symbol combination is displayed. In the example shown in the lower row and shown in FIG. 16 (F), the red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, which is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting the second symbol combination, is displayed in the lower row. Thus, the four types of stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16B, FIG. 16C, FIG. 16D, and FIG. 16F excluding the stop position candidates shown in FIG. Since each symbol of the first reel R1 constituting either the first symbol combination or the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is displayed at the display position on the active line, each stop The position candidates have the same priority. For this reason, as a result of the logic operation, there are a plurality (four types) of stop position candidates with the highest priority, so the stop position of the first reel R1 is determined by referring to the stop control table. Will do.

  In the present embodiment, in the stop control table that is referred to when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, when the stop button B1 is first pressed, For one reel R1, the bell symbol “BL” which is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting the first symbol combination is blue 7 symbol “blue 7” which is the symbol of the first reel R1 constituting the second symbol combination, red 7 symbol A “red 7A”, red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, BAR symbol “BAR” and replay symbol “RP” have priority over the sliding position for the pressed detection position so that it is displayed at the display position on the effective line. Number is set. In the example shown in FIG. 16, FIG. 16C is determined as the stop position of the first reel R1. Then, at the stop position shown in FIG. 16C, only the first symbol combination can be displayed among the symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). According to the symbol arrangement on the outer peripheral surfaces of the second reel R2 and the third reel R3, when either the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 is stopped, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is on the effective line. If the stop button is pressed at a timing that does not exist in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position, the first big bonus (BB1) can be avoided.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, for the first reel R1, the bell symbol “BL” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less, so when the stop button B1 is pressed at any timing. Even in such a case, any one of the bell symbols “BL” can be drawn into the display position on the effective line. Therefore, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, if the stop button B1 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B2 and B3, the first big bonus (BB1) can be avoided. 7 symbols that make up the second symbol combination that makes it difficult to avoid winning the first big bonus (BB1) while displaying the bell symbol “Bell” that makes up the first symbol combination that is easy to play. “Blue 7”, Red 7 symbol A “Red 7A”, Red 7 symbol C “Red 7C”, BAR symbol “BAR”, and Replay symbol “RP” are prevented from being displayed at the display position on the active line. be able to.

  Next, referring to FIG. 17, when the stop button B2 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B1 and B3, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is 0 frames from the display position on the active line. A case where the stop button B2 is pressed at a timing existing in the range of four frames will be described. As shown in FIG. 17A, in a state where the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are all rotating, the replay symbol “RP” of No. 0 is positioned in the upper row with respect to the second reel R2, and 1 in the middle row. If the stop button B2 is pressed at the timing when the second watermelon symbol B “WMB” is positioned and the second cherry symbol “CH” is positioned at the lower stage, the pressing detection position shown in FIG. There are five types of stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 17B to 17F in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames.

  Here, in the present embodiment, for the second reel R2, only the middle stage is set as the display position on the effective line, and in the example shown in FIG. 17B, the second reel R2 constituting the second symbol combination. In the example shown in FIG. 17C, the replay symbol that is not the symbol of the second reel R2 constituting either the first symbol combination or the second symbol combination is displayed. “RP” is displayed in the middle row, and in the example shown in FIG. 17D, the bell symbol “BL” that is the symbol of the second reel R2 constituting the second symbol combination is displayed in the middle row, and FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 17, the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” which is the symbol of the second reel R2 constituting the second symbol combination is displayed in the middle stage, and in the example shown in FIG. 17F, the first symbol combination is constituted. Red 7 which is the design of the second reel R2 Pattern A "red 7A" is displayed in the middle. Thus, the four types of stop position candidates shown in FIG. 17B, FIG. 17D, FIG. 17E, and FIG. 17F excluding the stop position candidates shown in FIG. Since the symbols of the first reel R2 constituting either the first symbol combination or the second symbol combination each indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) are displayed at the display positions on the effective line, these The priorities of the stop position candidates are equal. For this reason, as a result of the logic operation, there are a plurality of types (four types) of stop positions with the highest priority, so the stop position of the second reel R2 is determined by referring to the stop control table. Will do.

  In the present embodiment, in the stop control table that is referred to when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, when the stop button B2 is first pressed, For two reels R2, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” which is the symbol of the second reel R2 constituting the first symbol combination is the red 7 symbol B “red” which is the symbol of the second reel R2 which constitutes the second symbol combination. 7B ", red 7 symbol C" red 7C ", bell symbol" BL ", watermelon symbol A" WMA ", and watermelon symbol B" WMB "are detected to be displayed at the display position on the active line. The number of sliding frames for the position is set. In the example shown in FIG. 17, FIG. 17F is determined as the stop position of the second reel R2. Then, at the stop position shown in FIG. 17 (F), only the first symbol combination can be displayed among the symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). According to the symbol arrangement on the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 and the third reel R3, for the first reel R1, the bell symbol “BL” is drawn into the display position on the active line regardless of the pressing timing of the stop button B1. Therefore, when stopping the third reel R3, the stop button B3 is pressed at a timing when the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” does not exist within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the active line. By doing so, it is possible to avoid winning the first big bonus (BB1).

  In this embodiment, the stop button B2 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B1 and B3, and the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is 0 frame to 4 frames relative to the display position on the active line. When the stop button B3 is pressed at a timing that does not exist in the range, the red 7 symbol B “red 7B”, the red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, the bell symbol “BL”, the watermelon constituting the second symbol combination Since either the symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” can be drawn into the display position on the effective line, the symbols constituting the second symbol combination are displayed for the second reel R2. Then, only the second symbol combination can be displayed among the symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and the second symbol combination is displayed regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 and B3. The big bonus (BB1) is always won.

  Next, the case where the stop button B3 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B1 and B2 will be described. In this case, as in the case where the stop button B2 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B1 and B3, the red 7 pattern A “red 7A” ranges from 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the effective line. When the stop button B3 is pressed at the timing present in FIG. 2, the stop position at which the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is displayed in the upper row is determined as the stop position of the third reel R3, while the red 7 symbol A “ When the stop button B3 is pressed at a timing when “Red 7A” does not exist within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the active line, the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the red 7 symbol C “ The stop position at which any one of “red 7C”, bell symbol “BL”, watermelon symbol A “WMA”, and watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed in the upper row is determined as the stop position of the third reel R3. When the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is displayed at the display position on the active line, only the first symbol combination can be displayed among the symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). When the 2 reel R2 is stopped, if the stop button B2 is pressed at a timing when the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” does not exist within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the active line, the first big The bonus (BB1) winning can be avoided. On the other hand, one of red 7 symbol B “red 7B”, red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, bell symbol “BL”, watermelon symbol A “WMA”, and watermelon symbol B “WMB” is at the display position on the active line. When displayed, only the second symbol combination can be displayed among the symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and the second symbol combination is displayed regardless of the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 and B2. Thus, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won.

  Thus, in this embodiment, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the symbols constituting the first symbol combination are changed to the symbols constituting the second symbol combination. By preferentially displaying at the display position on the active line, it is possible to avoid winning the first big bonus (BB1) depending on the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3. Since the bell symbol “BL” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less for one reel R1, if the stop button B1 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B2 and B3, the symbol constituting the second symbol combination becomes the effective line. It is possible to reliably avoid being pulled into the upper display position.

  Further, in the present embodiment, any of the batting order bells (Bell, incorrect answer small role 1 to incorrect answer small number 8 and control small number 1 in the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state and control small number 1 ~ One or two of the control small combinations 5) may be elected. In this case, the setting state of the lottery flag includes two types of incorrect answer small combinations of the first big bonus (BB1) lottery flag, the bell lottery flag, and the incorrect answer small role 1 to the incorrect answer small role 8. The combination lottery flag and the lottery flags of one or two types of control small combinations among the control small combinations 1 to 5 are set in the winning state. In the present embodiment, a lottery flag for the first big bonus (BB1), a bell lottery flag, and a lottery flag for two types of incorrect answer small roles among the incorrect answer small roles 1 to 8 When the lottery flags of one type or two types of control bonuses among the control bonuses 1 to 5 are set in the winning state, depending on how the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. When the bell wins, when the control small part included in the batting order bell wins, when the incorrect small part included in the batting order bell wins, and when the first big bonus (BB1) wins And exist. In the following, with reference to FIG. 16 and FIGS. 18 to 20, an example is given where the batting order bell C1 (a combination of bell, incorrect answer small role 1, incorrect answer small role 8, and control small role 4) is won. This will be described in detail.

  First, referring to FIGS. 16, 18 and 19, the stop button B1 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B2 and B3, and the blue 7 symbol “blue 7” and the red 7 symbol C “red 7C” A case will be described in which the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing when any of the display positions on the effective line is in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames. As shown in FIG. 16A, in a state where the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are all rotating, the 5th replay symbol “RP” is positioned in the upper row with respect to the first reel R1, and 6 in the middle row. If the stop button B1 is pressed at the timing when the No. 7 bell symbol “BL” is located and the No. 7 blue 7 symbol “Blue 7” is located in the lower row, the press detection position shown in FIG. In the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, there are five types of stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 16 (B) to 16 (F).

  In the present embodiment, when the hitting bell is selected, a logic operation for obtaining priorities for the five types of stop position candidates for the pressed detection position is performed so that the priority becomes higher as the number of medals to be paid out increases in the correct hit order. Priority is given to the five types of stop position candidates with respect to the pressed detection position so that the priority becomes higher as the number of types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line in the incorrect answer order is increased. A logic operation for determining the degree is performed. For the batting order bell C1, the order of B2 → B1 → B3 is associated as the correct answer order, and in the example shown in FIG. 16, it is determined that the order is incorrect because the stop button B1 is pressed first. Then, a logic operation for determining the priority is performed so that the priority becomes higher as the number of types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line increases. Here, in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16 (E), none of the symbol combinations corresponding to the winning combination can be displayed, and in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16 (B), five kinds of symbol combinations. ("Blue 7, WMB, WMB", "Blue 7, WMB, Red 7B", "Blue 7, Red 7B, WMB", "Blue 7, Red 7B, Red 7B", Bonus symbol combinations) can be displayed Yes, with the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16C, two types of symbol combinations (“BL / BL / BL”, “BL / red 7A / red 7A”) can be displayed, and FIG. 16 (D) In the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16, three types of symbol combinations (“RP / BL / blue 7”, “RP / BL / RP”, bonus symbol combinations) can be displayed, and the stop shown in FIG. For the position candidates, 5 types of symbol combinations ("Red 7C / WMB / WMB", "Red 7C / W B · Red 7B "," red 7C · red 7B · WMB "," red 7C · Red 7B · Red 7B ", bonus symbol combination) has become a possible display. Here, in the present embodiment, when there are a plurality of types of bonus symbol combinations that can be displayed on the active line for one stop position candidate, a plurality of types of bonus symbol combinations are displayed. It is handled as one type. For example, in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16B, the combinations of symbols that can be displayed are “blue 7 / red 7B / BL”, “blue 7 / red 7C / BL”, “blue 7 / WMA • "BL", "Blue 7, WMB, BL", "Blue 7, BL, Red 7B", "Blue 7, BL, Red 7C", "Blue 7, BL, WMA", "Blue 7, BL, WMB" There are eight types of symbol combinations of the first big bonus (BB1). In the present embodiment, these eight types of symbol combinations are one type as a bonus symbol combination. For this reason, in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16 (B), the types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combinations that can be displayed are four types of symbol combinations of the incorrect answering combination 1 and one type of bonus symbol combination. There are a total of 5 types. In the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16D, there are 16 types of symbol combinations of the first big bonus (BB1) as displayable bonus symbol combinations. In the present embodiment, these 16 types of symbol combinations are available. Since there is one type of symbol combination as a bonus symbol combination, two types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed are the total of two types of symbol combinations of the control small role 4 and one type of bonus symbol combination. There are three types. In addition, in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16F, there are eight types of first big bonus (BB1) symbol combinations as displayable bonus symbol combinations. In the present embodiment, these eight types of symbol combinations are available. Since there is one type of symbol combination as a bonus symbol combination, there are four types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of winning combinations that can be displayed: one of four types of symbol combinations for incorrect answering role 1 and one type of bonus symbol combination. There are a total of 5 types.

  Of these five types of stop position candidates, the stop position candidates that can display the symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination on the active line are shown in FIGS. 16 (B) and 16 (F). Since it is a stop position candidate, the priority of these two types of stop position candidates is the highest. Then, since there are a plurality of candidates for the stop position with the highest priority based on the result of the logic operation, the stop position of the first reel R1 is determined with reference to the stop control table.

  Here, in the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order bell C1 is won in the state where the first bonus is established, if the first reel R1 stops first in the incorrect answering order, the incorrect answering role 1 or the incorrect answering role The number of sliding frames with respect to the pressed detection position is set so that 8 winnings are given priority. In the example shown in FIG. 16, the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 16B and FIG. 16F obtained as the stop position candidates with the highest priority in the logic operation are all incorrect answering 1 Therefore, for example, a stop position candidate shown in FIG. 16B with a small number of sliding symbols from the pressed detection position is determined as the stop position of the first reel R1. Then, in the state shown in FIG. 16 (B), the first big bonus (BB1), bell, incorrect answer small role 1, incorrect answer small role 8, and control small number 4 whose lottery flag is set to the winning state are set. Among them, it is possible to display the second symbol combination constituting the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern and the symbol combination constituting the winning combination of the incorrect answer small part 1.

  Next, a case where the stop button B2 is pressed second after the stop button B1 will be described. First, when the stop button B2 is pressed at a timing when one of the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” exists within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the effective line. Will be described. From the state shown in FIG. 16 (B), as shown in FIG. 18 (A), the first reel R1 is stopped and the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are rotating. When the replay symbol “RP” is located at 0, the first watermelon symbol B “WMB” is located at the middle, and the stop button B2 is pressed at the timing when the second cherry symbol “CH” is located at the bottom. Then, there are five types of stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 18B to 18F in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the press detection position shown in FIG.

  In the example shown in FIG. 18, since the stop button B2 is pressed second after the stop button B1, it is determined that the order is incorrect, and the second reel R2 is the same as in the case of the first reel R2. In addition, a logic operation for obtaining priorities for five types of stop position candidates with respect to the pressed detection position so that the priority increases as the number of types of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line increases. Is done. Here, in the stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 18C and 18F, none of the symbol combinations corresponding to the winning combination can be displayed. In the stop position candidates shown in FIG. Three kinds of symbol combinations ("Blue 7, WMB, WMB", "Blue 7, WMB, Red 7B", "Blue 7, WMB, BL") can be displayed, and the stop position shown in FIG. 18 (D) Candidates for one type of symbol combination (bonus symbol combinations (“Blue 7 • BL • Red 7B”, “Blue 7 • BL • Red 7C”, “Blue 7 • BL • WMA”, “Blue 7 • BL • WMB ")) can be displayed, and in the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 18E, three kinds of symbol combinations (" blue 7 / red 7B / WMB "," blue 7 / red 7B / red 7B ", “Blue 7 / Red 7B / BL”) can be displayed. Of these five types of stop position candidates, the stop position candidates that can display the symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination on the active line are shown in FIGS. 18 (B) and 18 (E). Since it is a stop position candidate, the priority of these two types of stop position candidates is the highest. Then, a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority are present based on the result of the logic operation, and therefore the stop position of the second reel R2 is determined with reference to the stop control table.

  In the example shown in FIG. 18, the stop position candidates shown in FIG. 18B and FIG. 18E obtained as the candidate of the stop position with the highest priority in the logic operation are both incorrect answering 1 Therefore, by referring to the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order bell C1 is won in the first bonus establishment state, for example, the number of sliding symbols from the pressing detection position is small (see FIG. 18). The candidate stop position shown in B) is determined as the stop position of the first reel R1. Then, in the state shown in FIG. 18 (B), the first big bonus (BB1), the bell, the incorrect answering small role 1, the incorrect answering small number 8, and the control small number 4 in which the lottery flag is set in the winning state. Among them, it is possible to display the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) and the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the incorrect answering role 1.

  In the present embodiment, for the third reel R3, neither the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” nor the watermelon symbol B “WMB” exists within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the effective line. Since the bell symbols “BL” are arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less, the third reel R3 that is rotating is stopped in the state shown in FIG. 19A. Therefore, when the stop button B3 is pressed at a timing at which at least one of the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” can be drawn within 4 frames, the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the watermelon By pulling one of the symbols B “WMB” to the upper stage, for example, as shown in FIG. 19B, the stop position of the third reel R3 is determined so that the incorrect answering combination 1 wins. On the other hand, when the stop button B3 is pressed at a timing at which neither the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” nor the watermelon symbol B “WMB” can be drawn within 4 frames in order to stop the third reel R3 that is rotating, By pulling the bell symbol “BL” upward regardless of the pressing detection position, for example, as shown in FIG. 19C, the stop position of the third reel R3 is set so that the first big bonus (BB1) is won. It is determined.

  On the other hand, in the state shown in FIG. 16B, the stop button B2 is the second button after the stop button B1, and both the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed on the active line. If it is pressed at a timing that does not exist in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the position, as in the example shown in FIG. 18, it is determined that the order is incorrect and the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line is displayed. A logic operation is performed to obtain priorities for the five types of stop position candidates with respect to the pressed detection position so that the priority increases as the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning mode increases.

  In the present embodiment, for the second reel R2, a red 7 symbol B “red 7B”, a red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, which constitute a second symbol combination indicating a winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), Any one of the watermelon symbol A “WMA” and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less, and in the stop control table referred to when the batting order bell C1 is won in the first bonus establishment state, In the correct answering order, when the first reel R1 stops for the first time, the number of sliding symbols with respect to the pressed detection position is set so that the winning of the incorrect answering combination 1 or the incorrect answering combination 8 is given priority. In the state shown in FIG. 16B, in order to stop the second reel R2 that is rotating, the stop button B2 has four frames of red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and watermelon symbol B “WMB”. Red 7 symbol C “Red 7C” and watermelon symbol A “WMA” which show the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line when pressed at a timing that cannot be drawn in. ”Is drawn into the middle stage, for example, the stop position of the second reel R2 is determined so that the red 7 symbol C“ red 7C ”is displayed in the middle stage as shown in FIG. 19D. Then, among the first big bonus (BB1), bell, incorrect answer small role 1, incorrect answer small role 8, and control small role 4 in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the state shown in FIG. Then, it becomes possible to display the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). In the present embodiment, the display patterns of the first reel R1 and the second reel R2 in the respective winning forms of the first big bonus (BB1) and the incorrect answer small combination 1 to the incorrect answer small combination 8 are common. Since the design is adopted, in the state shown in FIG. 19 (D), the possibility of winning the incorrect answering role 1 and the incorrect answering role 8 has disappeared. It is possible to maintain a sense of expectation for winning the incorrect answering role 8.

  In the present embodiment, the bell symbol “BL” constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less on the third reel R3. In the state shown in FIG. 19D, when the stop button B3 is pressed to stop the rotating third reel R3, the bell symbol “BL” is pulled up regardless of the pressed detection position, for example, As shown in FIG. 19E, the stop position of the third reel R3 is determined so that the first big bonus (BB1) is won.

  Next, when the stop button B1 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B2 and B3, either the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” or the BAR symbol “BAR” is 0 relative to the display position on the active line. A case where the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing existing in the range of frames to four frames will be described. In this case, as in the example shown in FIGS. 16, 18, and 19, the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is configured for the first reel R1 and the incorrect answering combination The stop position of the first reel R1 is determined so that either the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” or the BAR symbol “BAR” constituting the symbol combination indicating the 8 winning patterns is displayed at the display position on the active line. The stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at a timing when one of the red 7 symbol C “red 7C” and the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the effective line. Then, the incorrect answering combination 8 wins, and either one of the stop buttons B2 and B3 is displayed with respect to the display position on the active line for both the red 7 symbol C “red 7C” and the watermelon symbol A “WMA”. 0 When depressed at a timing that does not exist in the range of to 4 frames, the first big bonus (BB1) is adapted to winning.

  In the present embodiment, according to the symbol arrangement on the outer peripheral surface of the first reel R1, both the blue 7 symbol “blue 7” and the red 7 symbol C “red 7C” are 0 relative to the display position on the effective line. When the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing that does not exist in the range of frames to four frames, either the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” or the BAR symbol “BAR” can be drawn.

  Next, a case where the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B1 → B3 → B2 will be described. Also in this case, since the stop button B1 is first pressed, it is determined that the order is incorrect and the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line for the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is displayed. A logic operation is performed to obtain priorities for the five types of stop position candidates for the pressed detection position so that the priority increases as the number of symbol combinations to be shown increases.

  In this embodiment, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B1 → B3 → B2, the stop buttons B1 to B3 are displayed in the order of B1 → B2 → B3 shown in FIGS. As in the case of pressing, the winning combination winning combination that can be displayed on the active line is a symbol that constitutes the second symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern for the first reel R1. The stop position that displays the blue 7 symbol “blue 7”, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A”, the red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, or the BAR symbol “BAR” that gives the maximum pattern combination is given priority. Is done. When the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped, if the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at an appropriate timing in relation to the stop position of the first reel R1, the incorrect answer change 1 or the incorrect answer The first big bonus (BB1) is always won when the small role 8 always wins and the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at an inappropriate timing.

  As described above, when the hit order bell C1 is won in the first bonus establishment state, if the stop button B1 is first pressed (an operation order different from the specific operation order) in the incorrect answer order, the first reel R1 is The blue 7 symbols that constitute the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) and that has the maximum number of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line The stop position for displaying “blue 7”, red 7 symbol A “red 7A”, red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, or BAR symbol “BAR” is given priority. When the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped, if the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at an appropriate timing in relation to the stop position of the first reel R1, the incorrect answer change 1 or the incorrect answer The small role 8 always wins and can get one medal, and if the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at an inappropriate timing, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won. .

  The batting order bell C2, batting order bell C3, batting order bell C1, batting order bell R1, batting order bell R2, batting order bell R3, batting order bell R4 are also in the incorrect order and the stop button B1 is first pressed (specified) If the operation order is different from the operation order of (1), the first reel R1 is a symbol constituting a second symbol combination indicating a winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) and can be displayed on the active line. The blue 7 symbol “blue 7”, red 7 symbol A “red 7A”, red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, or BAR symbol “BAR” that shows the winning combination of the winning combination is displayed. When the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped, the stop buttons B2 and B are stopped at an appropriate timing in relation to the stop position of the first reel R1. Is pressed, an incorrect answering role included in the batting order bell can always win and acquire one medal. If the stop buttons B2 and B3 are pressed at an inappropriate timing, the first big A bonus (BB1) is always won.

  Further, in the first bonus establishment state, the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C3, the batting order bell C4, the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L2, the batting order bell L3, and the batting order bell L4 are the incorrect answer batting order and the stop button B3. The first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is configured for the third reel R3 by the same method even when is first pressed (operation order different from the specific operation order). Red 7 symbol B “Red 7B”, Red 7 symbol C “Red 7C”, Watermelon symbol A “ The stop position is determined so as to display “WMA” or watermelon symbol B “WMB”, and when the first reel R1 and the second reel R2 are stopped, the stop position of the third reel R3 is If the stop button B1 or B2 is pressed at an appropriate timing in the staff, either the incorrect answering combination 1 or the incorrect answering combination 8 can always win and acquire one medal, which is not appropriate timing. When the stop buttons B1 and B2 are pressed, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won.

  Further, in the first bonus establishment state, the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L3, the batting order bell L4, the batting order bell R1, the batting order bell R2, the batting order bell R3, and the batting order bell R4 are incorrect answer batting orders and the stop button B2 When the first is pressed, it is a symbol that constitutes the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) for the second reel R2 by the same method, and can be displayed on the active line Red 7 design B “Red 7B”, Red 7 design C “Red 7C”, Watermelon design A “WMA”, or Watermelon design B “WMB” The stop position is determined so as to be displayed, and when the first reel R1 and the third reel R3 are stopped, the stop position is determined at an appropriate timing in relation to the stop position of the second reel R2. When the pushbuttons B1 and B3 are pressed, either the incorrect answering combination 1 or the incorrect answering combination 8 can always win and acquire one medal, and the stop buttons B1 and B3 are pressed at an inappropriate timing. When pressed, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won.

  Next, a case where the stop button B2 is pressed prior to the stop buttons B1 and B3 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 20A, in a state where the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are all rotating, the replay symbol “RP” of No. 0 is positioned in the upper stage with respect to the second reel R2, and 1 in the middle stage. If the stop water button B2 is pressed at the timing when the second watermelon symbol B “WMB” is positioned and the second cherry symbol “CH” is positioned in the lower row, as in the example shown in FIG. There are five types of stop position candidates shown in FIGS. 17B to 17F in the range of 0 to 4 frames.

  In the example shown in FIG. 20, the stop detection position is determined so that the correct hit order is determined because the stop button B2 is pressed first, and the second reel R2 has a higher priority as the medal payout number increases. A logic operation for obtaining priorities for the five types of stop position candidates is performed. Here, in the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17C, no winning combination can be won, and in the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17B, the first big bonus (BB1) and the incorrect answer Since there is a possibility of winning the small role 1, the number of medals to be paid out is one. In the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17D, there is a possibility of winning the first big bonus (BB1) and the bell. The medal payout number is 15, and in the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17 (E), the medal payout number is 1 because there is a possibility of winning the first big bonus (BB1) and the incorrect answering role 1 In the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17F, the number of medals to be paid out is 0 because there is a possibility of winning the first big bonus (BB1). The stop position candidate with the largest number of medals paid out of these five types of stop position candidates is the stop position candidate shown in FIG. Since the highest priority and the highest priority stop position candidate have been narrowed down to one by the logic operation, the stop position candidate shown in FIG. 17D is determined as the stop position of the second reel R2. Then, in the state shown in FIG. 20 (B), the first big bonus (BB1), the bell, the incorrect answering small role 1, the incorrect answering small number 8, and the control small number 4 in which the lottery flag is set in the winning state. Among them, it is possible to display a second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and a symbol combination indicating each winning pattern of the bell and the control bonus 4.

  In the example shown in FIG. 20, if the stop button B1 is pressed second after the stop button B2, and the stop button B3 is pressed third after the stop button B1, the batting order bell C1 is Since the order of B2 → B1 → B3 is associated as the correct answer order, it is determined that the order is correct, and as with the first reel R1, the push is performed so that the priority becomes higher as the number of medals paid out increases. A logic operation is performed to obtain priorities for the five types of stop position candidates for the detection position.

  In the present embodiment, the bell symbol “BL” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less for each of the first reel R1 and the third reel R3. The stop positions of the first reel R1 and the third reel R3 can be determined so that the bell wins while avoiding the winning of the first big bonus (BB1) and the control small part 4 where the number of medals to be paid out is smaller. For example, as shown in FIG. 20C, the first reel R1 and the third reel R3 are stopped so that the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line, and the bell wins. Become.

  Next, a case where the stop button B3 is pressed second after the stop button B2 will be described. In the state shown in FIG. 20B, if the stop button B3 is pressed, the stop button B3 is pressed second after the stop button B2, so it is determined that the order is incorrect and the third reel R3 , Logic for obtaining priorities for the five types of stop position candidates for the pressed detection position so that the higher the number of types of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line, the higher the priority. An operation is performed.

  In the present embodiment, for the third reel R3, any one of the blue 7 symbol “blue 7” and the replay symbol “RP” constituting the symbol combination indicating the winning mode of the control small role 4 is within an interval of 4 frames or less. Since they are arranged, when the stop button B3 is pressed to stop the rotating third reel R3 in the state shown in FIG. 20B, it can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position. As shown in FIG. 20 (D), for example, by drawing one of the blue 7 symbol “blue 7” and the replay symbol “RP”, which shows the winning combination of the winning winning combination, into the upper row. The stop position of the third reel R3 is determined so that the replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the upper row. Then, in the state shown in FIG. 20 (D), the first big bonus (BB1), the bell, the incorrect answering role 1, the incorrect answering changer 8, and the control changer 4 with the lottery flag set to the winning state are displayed. Of these, the control bonus 4 can be won.

  For the first reel R1, either the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” or the replay symbol “RP” that constitutes the symbol combination indicating the winning form of the control small part 4 is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less. In the state shown in FIG. 20D, when the stop button B1 is pressed to stop the rotating first reel R1, the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the replay symbol regardless of the pressed detection position. By pulling one of “RP” to the lower stage, for example, the stop position of the first reel R1 is determined so that the control small part 4 wins as shown in FIG.

  As described above, when the stop button B2 is first pressed when the batting order bell C1 is won in the state where the first bonus is established, the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is configured for the second reel R2. The stop position for displaying the bell symbol “BL” with the maximum number of payouts is given priority. Then, depending on the pressing order of the second and subsequent stop buttons, a branching occurs when the correct answer hit order (specific operation order) and the incorrect answer hit order (operation order different from the specific operation order) are reached, and the stop button B2 is the first. If the stop button is pressed according to the correct answer hit order even after the button is pressed, the bell will always win and 15 medals will be obtained, but the incorrect answer hit order after the stop button B2 is first pressed. When the stop button is pressed along the line, the winning combination is not generated, but the control small part 4 always wins and only one medal can be obtained.

  Since the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell C3, and the batting order bell C4 also include the control small part 4, when the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell C3, and the batting order bell C4 are elected in the first bonus established state, the second reel When R2 is stopped for the first time, the bell that maximizes the number of payouts is a symbol that constitutes the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) for the second reel by the same method. The stop position is determined so that the symbol “BL” is displayed, and the correct answer order (specific operation order) and incorrect answer order (operation order different from the specific operation order) are determined according to the pressing order of the second and subsequent stop buttons. Will be branched.

  In addition, for the batting order bell R1, the batting order bell R2, the batting order bell R3, and the batting order bell R4, the common symbols relating to the third reel R3 are allotted to the bell included in each of the batting order bell R3 and the batting order bell R3. When the reel R3 is stopped for the first time, the same method is used to configure the second symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern for the third reel, and the number of payouts is maximized. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol “BL” is displayed, and the correct answer order (specific operation order) and incorrect answer order (operation order different from the specific operation order) are determined by pressing the second and subsequent stop buttons. And become branched.

  In addition, for the batting order bell L1 and the batting order bell L2, since the common symbols related to the first reel R1 are assigned to the bell, the control pocket 1 and the control pocket 2 included in each, the first reel R1 is When stopping for the first time, by the same method, for the first reel, it is a symbol constituting the first symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern, and the bell symbol “ The stop position is determined so that “BL” is displayed, and the correct answer order and the incorrect answer order are branched according to the pressing order of the second and subsequent stop buttons. In addition, for the batting order bell L3 and the batting order bell L4, since the common symbols related to the first reel R1 are assigned to the bell included in each of the batting order bell L3 and the control small part 1 and the control small part 3, the first reel R1 When stopping for the first time, by the same method, for the first reel, it is a symbol constituting the first symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern, and the bell symbol “ The stop position is determined so that “BL” is displayed, and the correct answer order and the incorrect answer order are branched according to the pressing order of the second and subsequent stop buttons.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is configured. First stop control to stop the rotating reel so that the symbol to be displayed is displayed at the display position on the active line in preference to the symbol constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). When the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) and the lottery flags of a plurality of types of small roles are both set in the winning state, the first big bonus (BB1) winning form is shown. The symbols constituting the two symbol combinations are displayed at the display position on the active line in preference to the symbols constituting the first symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern. And it performs the second stop control for stopping the reels in. In a game in which the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) and the lottery flags of a plurality of types of small roles are both set in the winning state, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are operated in the correct hit order, When the second stop control is performed by determining the stop position of the rotating reel so that the number of medals paid out in accordance with the winning of the small role is maximized, and the stop switches B1 to B3 are operated in an incorrect answering order. The second stop control is performed by determining the stop position of the rotating reel so as to maximize the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning combination of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line. .

  In particular, in the present embodiment, for the first reel R1, the bell symbol “BL” constituting the first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is placed on the effective line regardless of the pressing timing of the stop button B1. When the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective line by setting only one effective line, the first big bonus (BB1) is set. The symbols constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning form of the player are prevented from being displayed at the display position on the active line, and each of the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 has one red 7 symbol A "red 7A". When only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the red 7 symbol A “red” is arranged. By drawing A "preferentially, if the user presses down the stop button B1 first, it is possible to easily avoid the winning of the first big bonus (BB1).

  Further, in the present embodiment, regarding the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), for the first reel R1, there are eight types of incorrect answer small combinations, control small combinations 4, and control small combinations 5. The blue 7 symbol “blue 7”, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A”, the red 7 symbol C “red 7C”, the BAR symbol “ BAR "and replay symbol" RP ", and for the second reel R2, the second reel that constitutes a symbol combination indicating each of the winning forms of the bell, the eight types of incorrect answer small roles, and the control small role 4 “Red 7B”, red 7 design C “red 7C”, watermelon design A “WMA”, watermelon design B “WMB”, and bell design “BL” are used in common with the R2 design. , Bell, 8 types of incorrect answers , And the symbols of the third reel R3 constituting the symbol combinations indicating the respective winning combinations of the control bonus 5 "red 7B", red 7 symbol C "red 7C", watermelon symbol A "WMA", watermelon symbol B “WMB” and the bell symbol “BL” are adopted, and one type is set as a symbol combination indicating a bell winning form, and eight types of incorrect answer small roles, control small roles 4, and control small roles For each of 5, the number of symbol combinations is set more than that of the bell, and the amount of bell payout is set higher than that of the incorrect answering and control bonuses. In the present embodiment, the bell, the control small part 4 and the control small part 5 are configured not to lose a combination due to the pressing timing of the stop button. If it is not appropriate, it will be missed. In this embodiment, the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, and the batting order bell C3 including the bell, any two of the eight types of illegal answering small combinations, and the control small combination 4 or the control small combination 5. , Batting order bell C4, batting order bell R1, batting order bell R3, batting order bell R3, or batting order bell R4, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, the incorrect answer small role and the control small role By giving priority to the winning of the bell with higher payout than the winning pattern of the bell and the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), a common symbol is drawn into the display position on the active line and the first big bonus ( The symbols constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of BB1) are displayed on the active line in preference to the symbols configuring the first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). In the second and subsequent reels, when the turn is changed to the wrong answer order, the winning of the control small part 4 or the control small part 5 having more types of symbol combinations than the bell is given priority, so that the control small part 4 And the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) by drawing a common symbol regarding the winning pattern of the control bonus 5 and the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) to the display position on the active line. Is displayed on the active line in preference to the symbols constituting the first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the incorrect answer order from the beginning. Then, the winning of the incorrect answering role with more types of symbol combinations than the bell is prioritized, so that the winning style of the incorrect answering role included in the batting order bell and the first big bonus (BB1) The symbols constituting the second symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) when a symbol common to the winning pattern is drawn to the display position on the active line indicates the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). The first symbol combination is displayed on the active line in preference to the symbols constituting the first symbol combination. Therefore, if the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is appropriate, the bell always wins, and if the second and subsequent pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is inappropriate, the control small part 4 or the control small part If 5 always wins and the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is inappropriate from the beginning, the incorrect answering role included in the batting order bell is preferentially won. If he misses out, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won. That is, when the small bonus is won in the first bonus establishment state, the first big bonus (BB1) is awarded only when the small bonus is missed.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is easy to avoid winning the first big bonus (BB1) according to the setting state of the lottery flags for the combinations other than the first big bonus (BB1), and the first big bonus. It is possible to switch between cases where it is difficult to avoid the winning of (BB1), and it is possible to improve the playability in the game from winning the first big bonus (BB1) to winning.
Further, according to the present embodiment, when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is appropriate at the time of winning the batting order bell in the first bonus establishment state, the number of medals to be paid out with the winning of the small role is maximized. Since the second stop control is performed by determining the stop position of the reel that is rotating, the small combination (in which a lottery is set among the multiple types of small combinations in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state ( Bell) can be given priority.
According to the present embodiment, any one of the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C3, the batting order bell C4, the batting order bell R1, the batting order bell R2, the batting order bell R3, and the batting order bell R4 in the first bonus establishment state. Stop position of the rotating reel so that the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line is maximized when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is inappropriate at the time of winning Since the second stop control is performed by determining the winning combination, among the multiple types of small combinations for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the small combination (bell As a result, it is possible to prioritize the winning of the control small combination 4, the control small combination 5, and the eight kinds of illegal answer small combinations) in which a large number of symbol combinations indicating winning patterns are set.
Further, according to the present embodiment, the hit order bell C1, the hit order bell C2, the hit order bell C3, the hit order bell C1, the hit order bell R1, the hit order bell R2, the hit order bell R3, and the hit order bell R4 when the first bonus is established. Among the multiple types of small roles whose lottery flags are set to the winning state, when winning a prize for a small role (bell) with a lot of dividends set, there are many types of symbol combinations that indicate the winning pattern It is possible to switch between the case where the winning combination of the given small combination (control small combination 4, control small combination 5, eight types of incorrect answer small combination) is given priority according to the pressing order of the stop switches B1 to B3. .

  Further, according to the present embodiment, when the order of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 is inappropriate from the beginning when the batting order bell is won in the first bonus establishment state, the first big bonus is determined according to the stop button pressing timing. The case where (BB1) wins and the case where an incorrect answerer wins can be switched alternatively, and the gameability in the game from winning the first big bonus (BB1) to winning is improved. be able to.

  Next, the game playability in the game specifications of the present embodiment will be described in detail.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal state where the prescribed number of insertions is set to three, the first bonus establishment state, and the second bonus establishment state, as shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 14, only when the bell wins. In the first bonus state or the second bonus state, the player can increase the number of medals held by the player by paying out 15 medals that are larger than the prescribed insertion number. As shown in FIGS. 9 to 14, since only two medals are paid out regardless of which small combination wins, an increase or decrease in medals held by the player does not occur. In the present embodiment, in the first bonus establishment state, the internal lottery table B shown in FIG. Since the replay is won with a high probability, it is difficult for the player to consume the medal, and when the production state is the AT state, the first winning assistance production of the batting order bell By notifying the correct hitting order, the player can increase the number of medals on hand. That is, when an assist time game (a game in the AT state) is performed in the first bonus established state, it is possible to make a situation more advantageous in terms of medal acquisition than in the first bonus state or the second bonus state. It is like that. Thus, since the first bonus establishment state can be set as a game section in which medals can be easily acquired, the player can recognize the importance of maintaining the first bonus establishment state as much as possible. It is possible to improve interest in avoiding winning of the first big bonus (BB1) in the established state.

  In this embodiment, in order to immediately end the first bonus establishment state in which the winning probability of replay is relatively high after the assist time game ends, it is on the active line regardless of the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3. The 2nd symbol combination which can be displayed was set as a symbol combination which shows the 1st big bonus (BB1) winning form. However, if only the 2nd symbol combination is selected, the 2nd symbol combination will always be displayed when the 1st big bonus (BB1) is selected alone, and the 1st big bonus (BB1) will always be won, and the 1st bonus will be established. You will not be able to stay in the state. Therefore, in the present embodiment, if the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 is not appropriate, the first symbol combination that can be prevented from being displayed on the active line is a symbol indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1). Further set as a combination. When only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the first stop control in which the first symbol combination is given priority is performed so that the first big bonus (BB1) is difficult to win. When the first big bonus (BB1) and the winning combination lottery flag are set to the winning state, only when the second winning combination is given priority to the second symbol combination and the winning combination is missed. The first big bonus (BB1) was won. In the first bonus establishment state that shifts with the winning of the first big bonus (BB1), when the cherry is won, the cherry symbol “CH” in the first reel R1 constituting the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the cherry is drawn. When the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing included in the range, the cherry symbol “CH” is displayed on the active line, and the first big bonus (BB1) can be surely avoided. When the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing when the cherry symbol “CH” is not included in the pull-in range, the bell symbol “BL” is displayed on the active line, and the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern is displayed. Only the first symbol combination indicating can be displayed, and the first combination can be easily made by pressing the stop buttons B2 and B3. As shown in FIG. 5, when a replay is won, the symbols constituting the symbol combination indicating the replay winning form are always displayed on any reel. Since it can be drawn on the active line, winning of the first big bonus (BB1) is always avoided. Therefore, during the assist time game, the first bonus establishment state can be easily maintained by pressing the stop switches B1 to B3 according to the first prize assist effect, and the first bonus establishment state is immediately terminated after the assist time game is over. It is also possible to shift to the first bonus establishment state by pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 so that the player does not intentionally win when the first big bonus (BB1) is won alone. Become. In particular, in the present embodiment, if the stop button B1 is initially pressed when the first big bonus (BB1) is won, the first big bonus (BB1) can be easily won by the timing of pressing the stop buttons B2 and B3. It is possible to avoid the game in the first bonus establishment state.

  In the present embodiment, using the fact that the game state does not change unless the first big bonus (BB1) wins in the first bonus establishment state, the replay is won with high probability in the first bonus establishment state. Thus, the assist time game can be started promptly in a situation where the player hardly consumes medals.

  On the other hand, the second bonus establishment state that shifts with the winning of the second big bonus (BB2) is a gaming state in which the winning probability of replay is lower than that of the first bonus establishment state, which is disadvantageous for the player. For this reason, if the production state is not set to the AT ready state, it is possible to stay in the second bonus establishment state for a long period of time so that the player's medal can be consumed easily. Can greatly change the player's medal consumption and acquisition status. However, in the second bonus establishment state, a loss (unfair election) is more likely to occur in the internal lottery than in the first bonus establishment state. Therefore, if the player presses the stop button at an appropriate timing, the second big bonus (BB2 ) To finish the second bonus establishment state.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the player is in the second bonus establishment state, the player is awarded based on the fact that the second big bonus (BB2) is won in a state where the production state is not set to the AT preparation state. An disadvantageous penalty is generated, and execution of the AT lottery is prohibited until a predetermined number of games are consumed as a penalty. Specifically, a gaming state includes a first bonus establishment state that shifts by winning the first big bonus (BB1) and a second bonus establishment state that shifts by winning the second big bonus (BB2), and AT When the lottery is won, the production state is shifted to the AT ready state, and when the second bonus is established and the production state is not set to the AT preparation state, the player is awarded for winning the second big bonus (BB2). If an adverse penalty is generated and the production state is set to the AT ready state in the second bonus established state, the return to the normal state is made without generating a penalty for winning the second big bonus (BB2). If the first bonus is established when the production state is set to the AT ready state, the production state is shifted to the AT state and the assist tie is entered. It is adapted to carry out the game. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, in the state where the production state is not set to the AT preparation state, the player is given a motivation to prevent the second big bonus (BB2) from winning, and the game state is set to the second state. You will be able to stay in the bonus establishment state.
Also, in this embodiment, when winning in the AT lottery, the effect state is set to the AT ready state, the alert effect is performed in the AT ready state, and the stop button is appropriately set according to the pressing order notified by the player in the alert effect. If it is pressed at an appropriate timing, a symbol combination of “red 7B / red 7A / red 7B” indicating the winning form of the second big bonus (BB2) is displayed on the active line, thereby “red 7A / red 7A”. The symbol combination of “Red 7A” is displayed on the invalid line, so that it is possible to recognize that the game is performed in the AT state. When the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the internal lottery in the normal state, or when the result of the internal lottery is lost in the second bonus establishment state (only the lottery flag of the second big bonus (BB2) is won) When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed, the three types of symbol combinations indicating the second big bonus (BB2) winning pattern are displayed. Among them, the symbol combination of “Red 7A / Red 7C / Blue 7” or “WMA / Red 7C / Blue 7” is displayed on the effective line, but the symbol combination of “Red 7B / Red 7A / Red 7B” is the effective line. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is pressed first, the “red” is not displayed. B · symbol combination of red 7A · Red 7B "is adapted to be displayed on the effective line. According to the present embodiment, when the production state is not set to the AT state or the AT preparation state, the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is pressed first. Since the penalty is generated, when the production state is not set to the AT state or the AT ready state, the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is pressed first. It is possible to prevent the symbol combination of “red 7B, red 7A, red 7B” indicating the winning pattern of the second big bonus (BB2) from being displayed on the active line. Further, in the present embodiment, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the second big bonus (BB2) is arranged so that there is a stop switch pressing timing that cannot be displayed at the display position on the active line. Therefore, it is difficult to win the second big bonus (BB2), and only when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is pressed first. It is possible to display a symbol combination of “red 7B, red 7A, red 7B” indicating a winning form of the 2 big bonus (BB2) on the effective winning line.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal state where the internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table A shown in FIG. 3 is performed, the winning probability of the second big bonus (BB2) is higher than the winning probability of the first big bonus (BB1). It is high. For this reason, according to the present embodiment, it is easier to shift from the normal state to the second bonus establishment state that is disadvantageous to the player than the first bonus establishment state in which the assist time game is performed. For this reason, after the assist time game has ended, in a state where the production state is not set to the AT preparation state, it is possible to quickly shift from the normal state to the second bonus establishment state.

  Further, in the present embodiment, in the first bonus state and the second bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition for each bonus state is established by accumulating the number of medals paid out, and becomes the end condition for the second bonus state. Since the number of medals to be paid out is smaller than the number of medals to be paid out as a condition for ending the first bonus state, the second bonus state is promptly established after the production state is selected for the AT lottery in the second bonus establishment state. As a result, it is possible to obtain the opportunity to shift to the first bonus establishment state by returning to the normal state.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the production state is the AT state, the first winning assistance effect for notifying the correct batting order is executed when the result of the internal lottery is the winning of the batting order bell. When the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 stops for the first time in a game that is not in the state, a penalty is generated that makes it difficult for the effect state to shift to the AT preparation state or the AT state. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the player is motivated to stop the first reel R1 first so as to avoid the penalty when the production state is neither the AT ready state nor the AT state. When the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell C3, the batting order bell C4, the batting order bell R1, the batting order bell R2, the batting order bell R3, or the batting order bell R4 is selected, the first reel R1 is the first in the incorrect answer batting order. Since the player may miss the winning combination when stopping, it is possible to generate a situation in which it is difficult for the player to win a medal when the performance state is not the AT state, and the medal depends on whether or not the performance state is the AT state. It will be possible to make a big difference in the acquisition situation.

3. Modification The method described in the above embodiment is merely an example, and even when an equivalent method that achieves the same effect as the method of the above embodiment is employed, it can be included in the scope of the present invention. Further, the present invention is not limited to that described in the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made, and modifications will be introduced below. Note that the above-described embodiment and various methods described below as modified examples can be appropriately combined and employed as a control method for realizing the present invention.

  In the above embodiment, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is first pressed, and the first symbol combination is changed. When the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” is pressed at a timing that does not exist within the range of 0 to 4 frames relative to the display position on the active line, the second symbol combination is displayed and the first big The case where the bonus (BB1) always wins has been described as an example. However, when the symbols constituting the second symbol combination are displayed on the already stopped reels, the first symbol is designed to stop the rotating reel. If the stop switch is pressed at a timing when the symbols constituting the combination are in the range of 0 to 4 frames relative to the display position on the active line, the first symbol set To display the symbol constructing allowed, it may not be won any role.

  In the above embodiment, when only the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the first big bonus (BB1) is awarded regardless of the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3. The symbol constituting the first symbol combination indicating the symbol is displayed at the display position on the active line in preference to the symbol constituting the second symbol combination indicating the first big bonus (BB1) winning pattern. When the button B1 is first pressed, the symbols constituting the first symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) are preferentially displayed at the display position on the active line, and the stop button B2 or When the stop button B3 is first pressed, the symbols constituting the second symbol combination showing the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) are given priority. It may be displayed on the display position on the effect line. In this way, the first big bonus (BB1) is always won when the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is pressed first, so that the replay is won when the production state is not set to the AT ready state. It is possible not to stay in the first bonus establishment state with a relatively high probability.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the replay winning probability is constant in the normal state has been described. However, the replay winning probability may be changed based on the display of a predetermined symbol combination. For example, when the batting order bell is won in a normal state, if any small role is not won, the winning probability of replay may be changed by displaying a special symbol combination on the active line.

  Although not mentioned in the above embodiment, when the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the internal lottery, a notification effect for notifying that the bonus has been won is executed on the effect device. You may make it make it. The notification effect may be performed only when the AT lottery is won.

  In the above embodiment, the first bonus establishment state is set as a gaming state that is more advantageous than the second bonus establishment state by providing a difference in the replay winning probability between the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state. As an example, in the normal state or the second bonus establishment state, when any of the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L2, the batting order bell L3, and the batting order bell L4 is won in the internal lottery, the stop buttons B1 to B3 Regardless of the order of pressing, the winning position of the bell with a large number of paid-out medals must be avoided by determining the stop position so that the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern of the winning combination displayed on the active line increases. In this way, the rotating reel may be stopped. For example, in the normal state or the second bonus establishment state, when any one of the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L2, the batting order bell L3, and the batting order bell L4 is won in the internal lottery, the stop order B1 that is first pressed is the batting order 1 or When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the batting order 2, the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 may be controlled to stop so that the control small part included in the batting order bell wins. In addition, for example, in the normal state or the second bonus establishment state, when any of the batting order bell L1, the batting order bell L2, the batting order bell L3, and the batting order bell L4 is won in the internal lottery, the batting order 1 in which the stop button B1 is first pressed. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the batting order 2 or the batting order 2, in the normal state, there are cases where the incorrect answer small part included in the batting order bell wins and where no part wins. Control is performed to stop the reel R1 to the third reel R3, and in the second bonus establishment state, when an incorrect answering role included in the batting order bell wins, and when a second big bonus (BB2) wins, You may make it perform control which stops the 1st reel R1-the 3rd reel R3 so that there may be a case where no combination wins. As a matter of course, different stop control may be performed in the hit order 1 and the hit order 2 in which the stop button B1 is first pressed.

In this way, when the stop button B1 is pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed at the time of winning the batting order bell, the first bonus establishment state is changed depending on whether or not the bell can be won. The gaming state can be more advantageous than the bonus establishment state, the assist time game is performed based on the fact that the first bonus establishment state is an advantageous gaming state for the player, and the production state is set to the AT ready state. When the player is not in the game, the game state can be kept in the second bonus establishment state, which is a disadvantageous game state for the player, by using a penalty for winning the second big bonus (BB2). It becomes like this. Also, in the normal state and the second bonus establishment state, the bell will not win as long as the game is played in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed, so that medals can be easily consumed and the production state is set to the AT ready state. If it is set, the first winning assistance will be given when one of the batting order bell C1, batting order bell C3, batting order bell C4, batting order bell C4, batting order bell R1, batting order bell R2, batting order bell R3, batting order bell R4. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in accordance with the correct hit order informed by the performance, the bell wins, so that the reduction of medals can be suppressed and the player's medal consumption status and acquisition status can be greatly changed. Will be able to. In this case, the replay may be won with a higher probability in the first bonus establishment state than in the second bonus establishment state, and the winning probabilities of the replay in the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state are determined. The replay may be set with a higher probability in the second bonus establishment state than in the first bonus establishment state if they are slightly different.
Also, for example, in the state where the first bonus is established, the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed when a specific batting order bell (for example, the batting order bell L4) is won while maintaining the same winning probability as the normal state. Regardless of the order, the rotating reel may be stopped so that the bell always wins by determining the stop position so that the number of medals to be paid out is maximized. In this way, the probability of winning a bell in the first bonus establishment state can be increased more than in the second bonus establishment state, so that the first bonus establishment state is a more advantageous gaming state than the second bonus establishment state. Can do.

  In the above embodiment, only when the replay or small role is always won in the first bonus established state and the stop button is pressed in a specific manner at the time of winning the cherry or when the winning of the small role is missed when winning the batting order bell The case where the first big bonus (BB1) can be won has been described as an example. However, for example, in the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, and the second bonus establishment state, the prescribed number of insertions is 3 (first 1) and 2 (second insertion number) can be selected. In the first bonus state and the second bonus state, the prescribed insertion number is set to only two, and in the normal state, the prescribed insertion number. When the number is two, the first big bonus (BB1) is subject to the lottery, but the second big bonus (BB2) is not subject to the lottery. The first big bonus (BB1) is not subject to the lottery, but the second big bonus (BB2) is subject to the lottery, and the first bonus is established when the prescribed number of insertions is set to two. Although the big bonus (BB1) is the target of the pull-in process, the first big bonus (BB1) is not the target of the pull-in process and the target of the kick-off process in the first bonus establishment state where the prescribed number of insertions is set to three. By doing so, if a game is played with three medals inserted in the first bonus establishment state, the winning of the first big bonus (BB1) is always avoided regardless of the winning mode of the lottery flag or the operating mode of the stop button. The second big bonus (BB2) is the target of the pull-in process in the second bonus establishment state where the prescribed number of insertions is set to three, but the prescribed insertion In the state where the second bonus has been set to two, the second big bonus (BB2) is not set as the target of the pull-in process but is set as the target of the kicking process, thereby inserting two medals in the second bonus established state If a game is played, the second big bonus (BB2) may be avoided regardless of the lottery flag winning mode or the stop button operating mode.

In this way, when three medals are inserted, the first big bonus (BB1) winning is always avoided in the first bonus establishment state, so the player for maintaining the first bonus establishment state In the normal state, when the specified number of insertions is 3, the amount of the first big bonus (BB1) excluded from the lottery object is determined as the second big bonus (BB2). ) Can be assigned to the winning of the first big bonus (BB1) can be assigned to the winning of the first big bonus (BB1) if the prescribed number of insertions is two, the second big bonus (BB2) is excluded from the lottery Thus, it is possible to promptly shift from the normal state to each bonus establishment state.
In addition, for example, in the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, and the second bonus establishment state, three (first insertion number) and two (second insertion number) can be selected as the prescribed insertion number. In the first bonus state and the second bonus state, the prescribed number of insertions is set to only two. In the normal state, when the prescribed number of insertions is three, the first big bonus (BB1) is subject to lottery. Internal lottery is performed so that the 2 big bonus (BB2) is not subject to the lottery. If the specified number of insertions is two, the first big bonus (BB1) is not subject to the lottery but the second big bonus (BB2) is In the first bonus establishment state where the internal lottery is performed so that the lottery target is set and the prescribed number of insertions is set to three, the first big bonus (BB1) is targeted for the pull-in process, but the prescribed number of insertions is set to two. First If the first big bonus (BB1) is not subject to the pull-in process in the bonus establishment state but the kick process, the lottery flag is set when two medals are inserted and the game is performed in the first bonus establishment state. The winning of the first big bonus (BB1) can always be avoided regardless of the winning mode and the operating mode of the stop button, and the second big bonus ( BB2) is the target of the pull-in process, but the second big bonus (BB2) is not the target of the pull-in process and is the target of the kick-off process in the second bonus establishment state where the specified number of insertions is set to three. If a game is played with three medals inserted in the state where the second bonus is established, the lottery flag winning mode and the operation mode of the stop button are related. You may be sure it is possible to avoid the winning of the second big bonus (BB2) not.
In this way, when three medals are inserted, the second big bonus (BB2) winning is always avoided in the second bonus established state, so that the player for maintaining the second bonus established state In the normal state, when the prescribed number of insertions is 3, the amount of the second big bonus (BB2) excluded from the lottery target is determined as the first big bonus (BB1). ) Can be assigned to the winning of the second big bonus (BB2) can be assigned to the winning of the second big bonus (BB2) if the prescribed number of insertion is two, the amount that the first big bonus (BB1) is excluded from the lottery Thus, it is possible to promptly shift from the normal state to each bonus establishment state. In the above two examples, in the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, and the second bonus establishment state, the prescribed insertion number is set to be selectable between 3 and 1 (the third insertion number). In the bonus state or the second bonus state, the prescribed insertion number may be set to only one. In the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, and the second bonus establishment state, the prescribed number of insertions is set to be selectable from three types of one, two, and three, and the first bonus state and the second bonus state Then, the specified number of inputs may be set to only one or two.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the case has been described in which the loss is not generated in the first bonus establishment state, and the replay or the small role is always won, but an extremely low probability (for example, in the first bonus establishment state (for example, 1/65536) may cause the first big bonus (BB1) to be awarded only when a loss (unauthorized) occurs and the result of the internal lottery is a loss. In this case, when the result of the internal lottery is a loss, it is possible to cause the effect device to execute a notification effect for avoiding winning of the first big bonus (BB1).

  In the above embodiment, a case has been described in which the payouts of all small roles are set to the same number as the prescribed number of insertions (2) in the first bonus state and the second bonus state. In the bonus state, it is sufficient that the payouts of all small roles are set to be equal to or less than the specified number of inputs, and the payouts of some small roles are lower than the specified input numbers in the first bonus state and the second bonus state. Alternatively, the payouts of all small roles may be lower than the prescribed number of inputs.

  In the above embodiment, the replay is excluded from the internal lottery in the first bonus state and the second bonus state. However, the replay may be the internal lottery in the first bonus state and the second bonus state. Further, when the lottery flag for the small role is forcibly set to the winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery as in the above embodiment, both the replay and the small role are performed in the first bonus state and the second bonus state. Although a situation in which a winning state occurs, the symbol may be drawn on the active line so that even if the replay is won, the small role is won in preference to the replay. In addition, when replay is a lottery target in the first bonus state or the second bonus state, the AT lottery may be performed only when the replay is won in each bonus state.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated the case where the number of reels corresponded to a specific reel was single, the reel equivalent to a specific reel may be plural.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the 1st symbol combination which shows the 1st big bonus (BB1) winning form was one type, the 1st symbol combination which shows the 1st big bonus (BB1) winning form was multiple types. There may be.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) as specific bonuses are set as bonuses has been described as an example. However, only the specific bonus is set as a bonus. It may be. For example, only the first big bonus (BB1) may be set as the bonus, or both the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) may be set as the specific bonus.
