  The insertion accepting means 105 accepts the insertion of medals for each game, and the game for the start lever SL (game start operation means) is based on the insertion of medals corresponding to the prescribed number of insertions (2 or 3). Perform processing to validate the start operation. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the first pressing operation of the start lever SL that is activated based on the insertion of medals corresponding to the specified insertion number is accepted as the game start operation, and the first reel R1 to the third reel. It is an opportunity to start the rotation of R3 and an opportunity to execute the internal lottery.

  Further, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot MI, the medal insertion switch 210 is operated, and the insertion accepting means 105 is inserted with a prescribed number of insertions as a limit. Is set to the on state. Further, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when the bet button B0 is pressed while the medal is credited to the gaming machine, the insertion accepting means 105 sets the specified number of insertions as the bet switch 220 is activated. Limit and set the credited medal 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 activated by a game start operation on the start lever SL (first press operation on the activated start lever SL). For performing lottery table selection processing, random number determination processing, lottery flag setting processing, 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 internal 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 replays, small roles, bonuses, and losing (unauthorized). ing.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, bells (special roles), special small roles A1, special small roles A2, special small roles B, special small roles C, and cherries are prepared as small roles, and an internal lottery table A ~ In the internal lottery table C, the batting order bell L, batting order bell C1, batting order bell C2, batting order bell R1 and batting order bell R2 have the same random value so that multiple types of small roles are won in a single internal lottery. This means that multiple types of small roles are associated with.

  Specifically, each batting order bell will be described with reference to FIG. 4. The batting order bell L indicates that the bell and the special small part B are won in duplicate. In addition, the batting order bell C1 indicates that the bell, the special small combination A1, and the special small combination B are duplicated. Further, the batting order bell C2 indicates that the bell, the special small combination A2, and the special small combination B are won in duplicate. The batting order bell R1 indicates that the bell, the special small combination A1, and the special small combination C are won. Further, the batting order bell R2 indicates that the bell, the special small combination A2, and the special small combination C are duplicated. As described above, in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, in each batting order bell, the bell and one or two types of special small roles are elected redundantly, and the types and number of special small roles to be elected redundantly differ from the bell. ing.

  In the gaming machine of this embodiment, replay A, replay B, replay C, and replay D (specific replay) are prepared as replays, and any of the replays is selected by lottery in internal lottery table A to internal lottery table C. Although set as a target, in the internal lottery table D, any replay is excluded from the lottery target. Also, in the internal lottery table B and the internal lottery table C, when Replay A wins alone, when Replay B wins alone, when Replay A and Replay C win in duplicate, Replay A and Correspondence between the combination and the random number value is set so that there is a case where the replay D is won in duplicate.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the first big bonus (BB1) 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 (BB1) The big bonus (BB2) is set as a lottery object, but in the internal lottery table B to 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 (bonus establishment state), the second bonus establishment state (bonus establishment state), the first bonus state (bonus state), and the second state are used as the gaming state. A bonus state (bonus state) can be set, and 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 the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in the first bonus state and the second bonus state, exceptionally, the lottery flags of all small roles are set to the winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery.

  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) is won in the internal lottery, the winning state of the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is carried over until the first big bonus (BB1) wins. If the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the internal lottery, the winning state of the lottery flag of the second big bonus (BB2) is carried over until the second big bonus (BB2) wins. At this time, the internal lottery means 120 determines whether or not a role other than the bonus (small role and replay) is used 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. An internal lottery to determine In other words, in the lottery flag setting process, in the game in which the winning state of the bonus lottery flag is carried over, if a small role or replay is won, the bonus lottery flag already won and the small role won in the internal lottery And a lottery flag corresponding to two or more types of combinations including a replay lottery flag are set in a winning state.

  The reel control means 130 starts the rotational drive of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 by the stepping motor based on the start signal from the start switch 230 that is activated by the game start operation to the start lever SL. Stop by pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 (stop operation means) corresponding to the reels in which the 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) While performing control which validates operation, 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 is performed.

  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 bonus state, the first reel R1 is exceptionally stopped within 75 ms from when the stop button B1 is pressed, and the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped with the stop buttons B2, B3. The rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button stops within 190 ms from when the button is 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 the present 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 in the winning state in the logic operation processing. In accordance with the priority order associated with each winning combination, the stop position including the symbols constituting the winning combination form with the lower priority for the stopping position candidates including the symbols constituting the winning pattern with the winning combination with the higher priority order. The priority is determined so that the priority is higher than the candidate.

  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 determined so that the higher the priority is the stop position where the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern that can be displayed on the active line increases, and the medal When the priority for the stop position candidates is determined according to the number of payouts, the number of medals paid out based on the small part payout corresponding to the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line is large. That the stop position so as priority (stop position capable of winning a prize is often small win) increases determine the priority for the candidate of each stop position. 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.

  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, the correct answer hit order is set for each of the hit order bell L, the hit order bell C1, the hit order bell C2, the hit order bell R1, and the hit order bell R2, and an order different from the correct answer hit order is treated as an incorrect answer hit 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 candidates that can display the symbol combinations constituting the most winning patterns is the highest. In the present embodiment, when any one of the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell R1, and the batting order bell R2 is won, the first reel is stopped when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order. In this case, the stop position candidate with the largest number of payouts of medals is the stop position candidate that can display the symbol combinations that make up the most winning patterns. In the correct answer order, the priority of the stop position candidate with the largest number of payouts of medals is high, and when the reel stops in the second and subsequent turns, the highest winning mode is selected. The priority of the candidate of the stop position which can display the symbol combination to comprise becomes high.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, among a plurality of types of small roles included in each batting order bell, the bell is a type of symbol combination indicating a winning form with a payout of 6 when the number is 3 There are one type, both special small role A1 and special small role A2, each of which has a single payout, and there are two types of symbol combinations that indicate the form of winning. Special small role B and special small role C are both payable. There are four types of symbol combinations that make up the winning pattern with one. 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 an incorrect answering order, a candidate for a stop position that can win a special small role that increases the types of symbol combinations indicating the winning mode is selected. A logic operation is performed so that the priority 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.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” and the red 7 symbol B “red” with respect to the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 constituting the reel unit 310. 7B ", red 7 symbol C" red 7C ", BAR symbol" BAR ", replay symbol A" RPA ", replay symbol B" RPB ", bell symbol" BL ", watermelon symbol" WM ", and cherry symbol" CH " In particular, the bell symbol “BL” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less on the outer peripheral surface of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3.

  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. The first big bonus (BB1), the second big bonus (BB2), the replay A, the replay, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, depending on the symbol combination displayed on the active line in a state where each reel is stopped. B, Replay C, Replay D, Bell, Special small combination A1, Special small combination A2, Special small combination B, Special small combination C, A winning determination table is prepared so that it can be determined whether there is a winning of cherry. It should be noted that “ANY” in the winning type of cherry in FIG. 8 indicates that any symbol may be used.

  In the present embodiment, two types of winning combinations are set for the special small combination A1 and the special small combination A2, and 4 for each of the special small combination B and the special small combination C. Symbol combinations indicating types of winning patterns are set, both of which are more than the types of symbol combinations indicating the winning style of the bell. A common symbol is assigned to the reel R2, and a common symbol is assigned to the third reel R3 in the winning type of the bell and the special winning combination C.

  As for the bell, as shown in FIG. 5, the bell symbols “BL” constituting the bell winning form in each reel are arranged in a positional relationship that can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position. Therefore, it is a role that can be awarded regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3.

  As for the special small combination A1, as shown in FIG. 5, the replay symbol A “RPA” constituting the special small combination A1 winning form in the first reel R1 and the special small combination A1 winning form in the third reel R3. The BAR symbols “BAR” to be configured are arranged in a positional relationship that can be displayed on the active line regardless of the pressed detection position, but constitute the winning form of the special small role A1 in the second reel R2. Since there is a pressing detection position where the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” and the BAR symbol “BAR” are not included in the pull-in range, it is not possible to win a prize unless the stop button B2 is pressed at an appropriate timing. Yes.

  As for the special small combination A2, as shown in FIG. 5, the replay symbol A “RPA” constituting the special small combination A1 winning form in the first reel R1 and the special small combination A1 winning form in the third reel R3. The BAR symbols “BAR” to be configured are arranged in a positional relationship that can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position, but constitute the winning form of the special small role A2 in the second reel R2. Since there is a pressing detection position where the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” and the red 7 symbol C “red 7C” are not included in the pull-in range, it is impossible to win a prize unless the stop button B2 is pressed at an appropriate timing. It has become.

  As for the special small role B, as shown in FIG. 5, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” and the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” constituting the winning form of the special small role B in the first reel R1, The bell symbol “BL” constituting the winning form of the special small role B in the two reels R2, and the replay symbol A “RPA” and the replaying symbol B “RPB” constituting the winning type of the special small role B in the third reel R3, However, since all are arranged in a positional relationship that can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position, it is possible to win regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3. .

  As for the special small role C, as shown in FIG. 5, the red 7 symbol A “red 7A” and the red 7 symbol B “red 7B” constituting the winning form of the special small role C in the first reel R1, The replay symbol A “RPA” and the replay symbol B “RPB” constituting the winning form of the special small role B in the two reels R2, and the bell symbol “BL” constituting the winning shape of the special small role B in the third reel R3. However, since all are arranged in a positional relationship that can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position, it is possible to win regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3. .

  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 a process at the time of winning, for example, when a small combination (bell, special small combination A1, special small combination A2, special small combination B, special small combination C, cherry) is won, the payout control means 150 performs medal payout control. When the process is performed and the replay (replay A to replay D) wins, the replay processing means 160 performs the replay process, and the bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus (BB2)) is 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 this embodiment, there is an upper limit (for example, 6) 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 FIG. 8, the payout for the small role is determined in advance according to the specified number of inputs, and when the specified number of inputs is 3, the bell payout is more than the specified input number. Dividends for 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 are equal to the specified input number. It is set to the same number.

  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. 9, 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 the transition from the normal state to the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state is possible. Specifically, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the normal state, the first bonus is established. When the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the normal state, the second bonus is established. Transition. 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.

  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, in the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of the small role is set to be the same as the normal state, and the winning probability of the replay is set to about 1 / 3.8. An internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table B in which the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are 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. .

  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 the first big bonus (BB1) winning form. When the symbol combination is displayed on the activated line, the gaming state transition control means 170 performs control for shifting the gaming state from the first bonus establishment state to the first bonus 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, in the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of the small role is set to be the same as the normal state, and the winning probability of the replay is set to about 1 / 3.8. The internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table C in which the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are excluded from the lottery targets. In the internal lottery table C that is referred to in the second bonus establishment state, as shown in FIG. 3, there is no occurrence of losing (invalid) in the internal lottery, and a small role or replay is always won. . Further, in the internal lottery table C referred to in the second bonus establishment state, as shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of the single winning of Replay A, the winning probability of the overlapping winning of Replay A and Replay C, and the Replay A and Replay are shown. The winning probability of the entire replay A, which is the sum of the winning probabilities of D's overlapping winnings, is set lower than the winning probability of the entire replay A in the internal lottery table B, and the winning probability of replay B is the replay B in the internal lottery table B The winning probability of Replay C is set to a winning probability lower than the winning probability of Replay C in internal lottery table B, and the winning probability of Replay D is set to the probability of Replay D in internal lottery table B. The winning probability is set higher than the winning probability.

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 performs control to shift the gaming state from the second bonus establishment state to the second bonus state.

  The first bonus state is a gaming state in which a transition is made when a symbol combination indicating a winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is displayed on the active line in the first bonus established state. In the first bonus state, it is determined whether 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, 10) 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 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 establishment state. In the second bonus state, it is determined whether 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, 10) 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 first bonus state and the second bonus state, among the internal lottery tables A to D shown in FIG. 3, the internal lottery table D in which losing (unfair election) is associated with all random numbers. Although the referenced internal lottery is performed, the lottery flags for all the small roles are forcibly set to the winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery, and the drawing range of the symbols for the first reel R1 is 0 frame to 1 The second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are set to a top frame of 0 to 4 frames, and the reels are controlled to stop.

  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 (an example of the display device 330) or an LED (an example of the display device 330) or an LED (an example of the display device 330) according to the occurrence of a gaming event such as the insertion of a medal, the operation on the bet button B0, the start lever SL, the stop buttons B1 to B3, or the change in the gaming state. By turning on or blinking an example), changing the display content of a liquid crystal display LCD (an example of a display device 330), or outputting a sound from a speaker (an example of an acoustic device 340), Perform execution control for assisting the game.

  Particularly in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the effect control unit 180 changes the effect state among a plurality of types of effect states, and the effect state is set by setting the AT flag in the effect flag storage unit 196 under a predetermined condition. Is set to the assist time state (AT state: special effect state), the AT state end condition is determined based on the stored value of the AT end determination counter (end condition determination counter) 198, and the AT state end condition is satisfied. Accordingly, the AT state is terminated by clearing the AT flag.

  More specifically, the effect control means 180 performs AT lottery (predetermined effect lottery) when a cherry is won in the internal lottery. In the AT lottery, any of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random number values are stored in the plurality of AT lottery tables A to AT lottery tables C stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 197. It is compared with one of the AT lottery tables, and it is determined whether or not the AT lottery is won according to the comparison result. 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 (unfair), and the random number acquired in the AT lottery When the numerical value is associated with the normal winning or the special winning in the AT lottery table, it is determined that the AT lottery has been won, and the AT flag is set in the effect flag storage unit 196. Particularly in the present embodiment, an AT lottery table to be referred to in the AT lottery is selected according to the gaming state. Specifically, when the gaming state stays in the normal state, the AT lottery is performed with reference to the AT lottery table A, and when the gaming state stays in the first bonus establishment state, When the AT lottery is performed with reference to the AT lottery table B and the gaming state stays in the second bonus establishment state, the AT lottery is performed with reference to the AT lottery table C. Here, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the winning probability of the entire AT lottery obtained by adding the winning probability of the normal winning and the winning probability of the special winning is AT lottery table A> AT lottery table B> AT lottery table. Each AT lottery table is set so as to increase in the order of C. An opportunity other than the winning of the cherry may be provided as an opportunity for the AT lottery.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a given added value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 (update of the end condition determination counter) 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 50 games is set to “50” and the result of the AT lottery is a special win, the added value is set to “100” as a value corresponding to 100 games, for example. Is done. The added value is not limited to the above example and can be set arbitrarily.

  In addition, the effect control means 180 performs an extra lottery (predetermined effect lottery) when the game in the AT state (assist time game) wins Cherry or Replay D in the internal lottery, and wins the extra lottery. Based on this, a process of adding a given added value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 (update of the end condition determination counter) is performed. In the extra lottery, any one of 32768 random numbers from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the obtained random number values are stored in a plurality of extra lottery tables A to extra lottery tables C stored in the production lottery table storage unit 197. It is compared with any of the extra lottery tables, and it is determined whether or not the extra lottery is won according to the comparison result. In the extra lottery table A to the extra lottery table C, for example, each of the 32768 random numbers from 0 to 32767 is associated with one of normal winning, special winning, or losing (unfair winning), When the random number value acquired by the extra lottery is associated with the normal win or the special win in the extra lottery table, it is determined that the extra lottery has been won. Particularly in the present embodiment, an extra lottery table to be referred to in the extra lottery is selected according to the gaming state and the result of the internal lottery. Specifically, when the game state is staying in the first bonus establishment state, if the cherry is won, an addition lottery is performed with reference to the addition lottery table A, and the game state is changed to the second bonus establishment state. If a cherry is won while staying, an extra lottery is performed with reference to the extra lottery table B, and replay is performed when the gaming state stays in the first bonus established state or the second bonus established state When D wins, an extra lottery is performed with reference to the extra lottery table C. Here, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, the winning probability of the overall lottery that is the sum of the winning probability of the normal winning and the winning probability of the special winning is higher than that of the additional lottery table A. The extra lottery table A and the extra lottery table B are set so as to be higher, and the extra lottery table C is set to be surely won. In the present embodiment, the added value is different between the case where the result of the extra lottery is a normal win and the case of the special winner, and when the result of the extra lottery is a normal win, the added value is For example, if the value corresponding to 10 games is set to “10” and the result of the extra lottery is a special win, the added value is set to “30” as a value corresponding to 30 games, for example. Is done. The added value is not limited to the above example and can be set arbitrarily. Further, an opportunity other than winning of Cherry or Replay D may be separately provided as an opportunity for the extra lottery.

  In addition, each time the game in the AT state is performed, the effect control means 180 performs a decrement update by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of games for one game from the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198. 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 won in the AT lottery. However, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 may be started by a predetermined trigger (for example, a predetermined symbol combination is displayed on the active line). 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) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won, the effect flag is stored even if the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 does not reach the threshold value. The AT flag set in the means 196 is cleared to end the AT state, and the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is reset to an initial value (for example, 0) with the winning of the big bonus (BB).

  In addition, when the production state is the AT state, the production control means 180 displays a first prize assistance production (winning assistance production) for notifying the pressing order of the stop button and assisting the winning of the bell when the batting order bell is won. Control to be executed by the device 330 and the acoustic device 340 is performed. 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 6 medals can be obtained when the stop button is pressed in accordance with the correct hit order notified in the first winning assistance effect. Can increase the number of medals on hand.

  In addition, when the replay state is the AT state, the replay control unit 180 notifies the stop button pressing order and assists the replay D in winning when the replay A and the replay D are selected and won. Is controlled by the display device 330 and the acoustic device 340. 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 Replay D to be awarded. Audio for notifying the specific batting order capable of displaying the effect image for notifying the replay D, turning on the lamp notifying the specific batting order capable of winning the replay D, and winning the replay D. Can be output from the speaker. In addition, when the rendition state is the AT state and the replay A and the replay C are won in duplicate, the rendition control means 180 notifies the stop button pressing order and assists the replay C in winning the second. Control that causes the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to execute a prize winning effect is performed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the AT lottery table, the added value for the AT end determination counter 198 at the time of winning the AT lottery, the additional lottery table, and the added value for the AT end determination counter 198 at the time of winning the extra lottery are as follows. The payout rate indicating the ratio of the number of medals paid out with respect to the number of medals inserted is set to be equal between when the game is played and when the game is played in the second bonus established state.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a penalty process that generates a penalty that is disadvantageous to the player when the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 stops for the first time in a game in which the effect state is not the AT state. Penalty processing includes, for example, processing for prohibiting execution of AT lottery until a certain number of games are consumed, processing for discarding the results of AT lottery until the number of games is consumed, and winning an AT lottery. It is possible to perform a process of deferring the transition to the AT state until a certain number of games are consumed. In other words, in this embodiment, when the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is first pressed when not in the AT state, the opportunity to shift to the AT state is lost until a certain number of games are consumed, or the AT state is entered. There is a penalty for delaying the transition.

  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.

1-2. Next, with reference to FIG. 3, FIG. 5, FIG. 8, FIG. 10, FIG. 11, and FIG. 12, the control method employed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be specifically described. .

  First, 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. 8, it is defined only when the bell wins. In the first bonus state and the second bonus state in which six medals larger than the inserted number are paid out and the player can increase the number of medals on hand, and the prescribed inserted number is set to two, FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, since only two medals are paid out regardless of which small combination wins, the player's hand-held medals are not increased or decreased. In the present embodiment, in the first bonus establishment state or the second bonus establishment state, the internal lottery table B or the internal lottery table C shown in FIG. Since either a replay or a small role is always won, there is no chance that the player will consume the medal by winning the replay with a high probability, and the production state is the AT state. The player can increase the number of medals held by the player by notifying the correct answer order of the hit order bell by the first winning assist effect. In other words, when the assist time game is performed in the first bonus established state or the second bonus established state, it is possible to make the situation more advantageous in terms of medal acquisition than the first bonus state and the second bonus state, The player can be motivated to maintain the first bonus establishment state or the second bonus establishment state over a long period of time.

  In this embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (the first bonus establishment state, the second bonus establishment state), a replay or small role having a higher priority than the bonus is always won, and a specific timing is determined by a game in which Cherry is won. If the stop button is pressed to avoid winning the cherry, the bonus with the lottery flag set to the winning state cannot be won. Specifically, when winning a replay or batting order bell, as shown in FIG. 5, in any reel, be sure to draw the symbols making up the winning combination of the small part included in the replay or batting order bell on the active line. Therefore, the winning of the bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state is always avoided, and when winning the cherry, as shown in FIG. 5, the first reel Since the watermelon symbol “WM” is arranged adjacent to the cherry symbol “CH” in R1 in R1, due to the arrangement of these symbols, the symbols within 4 frames from the pressed detection position are on the effective line. In the game in which Cherry is won in the bonus establishment state that can be drawn in, the replay symbol “RP” of No. 20 is displayed in the middle stage of the first reel R1. Outside are prevented can be drawn to "WM" third watermelon symbols on the first reel R1 to the middle of the first reel R1. For this reason, in this embodiment, once shifting to the bonus establishment state, it is extremely difficult to win a bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, while reducing the operational burden on the player. The bonus can be maintained for a long time. In the present embodiment, when the game is performed for a long time in either the first bonus establishment state or the second bonus establishment state, and the production state is set to the AT state, the gaming state is not shifted. It is possible to perform an assist time game in which a player can increase medals on hand.

  In this embodiment, in such a bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), a bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second bonus flag is set to the winning state) A technique of changing the winning probability of Replay A, Replay B, Replay C, and Replay D according to the type of big bonus (BB2)) is adopted. Specifically, in the first bonus establishment state in which the lottery flag of the first big bonus (BB1) is set to the winning state, the internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table B is performed and the second big bonus (BB2) In the second bonus establishment state in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, an internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table C is performed. In the internal lottery table B, as shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of the single winning of Replay A, the winning probability of the overlapping winning of Replay A and Replay C, and the winning probability of the overlapping winning of Replay A and Replay D are as follows. The combined winning probability of the entire replay A is set to a probability higher than the winning probability of the entire replay A in the internal lottery table C, and the winning probability of the replay B is set to a probability lower than the winning probability of the replay B in the internal lottery table B The winning probability of Replay C is set to a winning probability higher than the winning probability of Replay C in internal lottery table B, and the winning probability of Replay D is set to a winning probability lower than the winning probability of Replay D in internal lottery table B Has been. Therefore, in the game in the first bonus establishment state, the replay A and the replay C are easier to win and the replay B and the replay D are harder to win than the game in the second bonus establishment state. In the game in the second bonus establishment state, the replay B and the replay D are easier to win and the replay A and the replay C are harder to win than the game in the first bonus establishment state. Then, when replay A and replay C are overlapped and when replay A and replay D are overlapped, stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which stop button B1 is pressed first to avoid a penalty. When the replay A is to be won and the production state is set to the AT state, the second winning assistance effect is performed and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed according to the winning assistance effect. Since the replay C and the replay D are won, the game in the first bonus establishment state is more likely to win the replay A and the replay C than the game in the second bonus establishment state. In addition, the replay B winning and the replay D winning are less likely to occur. In the game in the state, the replay B winning and the replay D winning are more likely to occur than the game in the first bonus established state, and the replay A winning and the replay C winning are less likely to occur. It has become. Thus, according to the present embodiment, the reels are stopped in the game in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. Since the aspect changes and the gameability can be changed, it is possible to improve the gameability in the game from winning a bonus to winning a prize.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), the bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus ( A method of changing the lottery mode of the AT lottery and the extra lottery according to the type of BB2)) is adopted. Below, the method of this embodiment is demonstrated concretely, referring the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, the AT lottery process will be described. If a cherry is won when the performance state is not set to the AT state, a random value is acquired (step S100). Then, the AT lottery table to be referred to in the AT lottery is selected according to the gaming state, and when the gaming state stays in the normal state (Y in step S101), the AT lottery table A is selected (step S102). When the gaming state stays in the first bonus establishment state (N in step S101, Y in step S103), the AT lottery table B is selected (step S104), and the gaming state stays in the second bonus establishment state. If so (N in step S101, N in step S103), the AT lottery table C is selected (step S105). Then, the acquired random number value is compared with the selected AT lottery table, and it is determined whether or not the AT lottery is won according to the comparison result (step S106).

  Next, the extra lottery process at the time of winning the cherry will be described. When the cherry is won in the AT state, a random value is acquired (step S200). Then, an extra lottery table to be referred to in the extra lottery is selected according to the gaming state, and when the gaming state stays in the first bonus establishment state (Y in step S201), the extra lottery table A is selected (step S202) If the gaming state stays in the second bonus establishment state (N in step S201), the extra lottery table B is selected (step S203). Then, the acquired random number value is compared with the selected extra lottery table, and it is determined whether or not the extra lottery is won according to the comparison result (step S204). When the replay D is won in the AT state, the extra lottery table C is selected in both the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the AT lottery with reference to the AT lottery table B and the extra lottery with reference to the extra lottery table A or the extra lottery table C are performed in the first bonus establishment state, and in the second bonus establishment state. The AT lottery with reference to the AT lottery table C and the extra lottery with reference to the extra lottery table B or the extra lottery table C are performed. In the AT lottery table B, as shown in FIG. 10, the winning probability of the normal winning is set to be lower than the winning probability of the normal winning in the AT lottery table C, and the winning probability of the special winning is set in the AT lottery table C. The winning probability of the entire AT lottery in the AT lottery table C is set higher than the winning probability of the special winning, and the winning probability of the entire AT lottery in the AT lottery table C is higher than the winning probability of the normal winning and the winning probability of the special winning. Set to probability. In addition, in the extra lottery table A, as shown in FIG. 11, the winning probability of the entire extra lottery obtained by adding up the winning probability of the normal winning and the winning probability of the special winning is added to the winning probabilities of the entire extra lottery in the lottery table B. High probability is set. For this reason, games with the first bonus established state are easier to win the AT lottery and more difficult to win the lottery than games with the second bonus established state, while the second bonus is established. In the game of the state, it is difficult to win the AT lottery as a whole as compared to the state where the first bonus is established, but the game is easy to win the normal lot and easy to win the extra lottery. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the gameability in the game in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) is changed according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. Therefore, it is possible to improve the playability in games from winning a bonus to winning a prize.

  In the present embodiment, since the AT lottery table and the like are set so that the payout rate is the same regardless of whether the game is played in either the first bonus established state or the second bonus established state. The player is not disadvantaged regardless of which bonus is established. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, when the player is playing a game in the normal state, the first big bonus (BB1) is generated without causing any disadvantages regardless of the bonus establishment state. Depending on which of the 2nd big bonus (BB2) is won, the game can be changed randomly.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the game store side can set the gameability by allowing the game store side to stay in a predetermined bonus establishment state in advance. In this case, although not mentioned in the above description, in the game won for the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2), the effect device is made to execute a notification effect for notifying the won bonus. be able to.

2. Second Embodiment In the present embodiment, detailed description of the configuration and control method common to the first embodiment will be omitted, and major differences will be described.

2-1. Configuration In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, the symbol combination “RPA / WM / BAR” is set as the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1), and the second big bonus is set. As a symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of (BB2), a symbol combination of “RPA / RPB / BAR” is set.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, replay E is further prepared as a replay, and “RPA / RPA / BL”, “RPA / RPB / BL” are shown as symbol combinations indicating a winning form of the replay E. "Is set.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, in addition to the four types of symbol combinations in the above embodiment, “Red 7A · CH · RPA”, “ Two types of symbol combinations “Red 7B, CH, RPB” are set, and in addition to the four types of symbol combinations in the above embodiment, “Red 7A. Two types of symbol combinations “RPA · CH” and “Red 7B · RPB · CH” are set.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, when the number of medals inserted is three, the number of medals inserted is set to six, which is the same as the number of bells, and the number of medals inserted is two. Is set to two.

  In this embodiment, in addition to the AT state (special effect state), the special assist time preparation state (special AT preparation state: special effect state) and the special AT state (special AT state: special effect state) are provided as the effect state. Can be set, and the special AT flag is set in the special flag flag in the special flag storage unit 196 under a predetermined condition to set the special state to the special AT state, and the special AT end determination counter (end condition determination counter) of the storage unit 190 Based on the stored value, the termination condition for the special AT state is determined, and the special AT state is terminated by clearing the special AT flag when the termination condition for the special AT state is satisfied.

  More specifically, the effect control means 180 performs AT lottery (predetermined effect lottery) in response to an independent lottery winning in the internal lottery and wins the AT lottery in the same manner as in the above embodiment. Based on this, an AT flag is set in the effect flag storage unit 196, and a process of adding a given added value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 (update of the end condition determination counter) is performed. In this embodiment, only the AT lottery table B is prepared as the AT lottery table, and the AT lottery table B is selected regardless of the gaming state.

  In addition, the production control means 180 performs an extra lottery (predetermined production lottery) in response to the fact that the cherry is won by the internal lottery or the Replay D is won in the AT state, and based on the fact that the extra lottery is won. Then, a process of adding a given added value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter or the special AT end determination counter (update of the end condition determination counter) is performed. In this embodiment, when a cherry is won, a process of adding a given addition value to the AT end determination counter 198 is performed, and when a replay D is won, a given addition value is added to the special AT end determination counter. The process of adding is performed. In the present embodiment, only the extra lottery table A and the extra lottery table C are prepared as the extra lottery table. In the extra lottery at the time of winning the cherry, the extra lottery table A is selected and replayed as in the above embodiment. In the extra lottery at the time of D winning, the extra lottery table C is selected as in the above embodiment.

  In addition, each time the game in the AT state is performed, the effect control means 180 performs a decrement update by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of games for one game from the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is a game after the next game won in the AT lottery, and the game state stays in the first bonus establishment state or the first The process is started on the condition that the state has shifted to the one bonus establishment state. 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, and the production state is maintained in the AT state. The decrement update related to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is interrupted, and the decrement update of the AT end determination counter 198 is resumed when the gaming state returns to the first bonus establishment state after the end of the first bonus state. The game of digestion is performed. Further, in the present embodiment, when the replay D is won by internal lottery in the AT state, it is determined that the interruption condition of the AT state is satisfied, and the decrement update related to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is interrupted. The AT state set in the flag storage unit 196 is cleared to end the AT state, and the special AT preparation flag is set in the production flag storage unit 196 to perform control for setting the production state to the special AT preparation state. At this time, the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is held as it is.

  Further, the effect control means 180 clears the special AT preparation flag set in the effect flag storage means 196 when the gaming state shifts to the second bonus establishment state in the special AT preparation state. And the special AT flag is set in the effect flag storage means 196 and the effect state is set to the special AT state.

  In addition, the effect control means 180 performs an extra lottery when the cherry is won in the internal lottery in the special AT state, and based on the fact that the extra lottery is won, the given value is added to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198. Performs processing to add a value. Further, the effect control means 180 performs an extra lottery when the Replay A is won in the internal lottery in the special AT state, and adds the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 based on the winning of the extra lottery. A given addition value is accumulated and stored in an addition value storage area (not shown) of the storage means 190, and the addition value stored in the addition value storage area of the storage means 190 based on the winning of the replay D. Is added to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198, and the added value stored in the added value storage area of the storage means 190 is reset to an initial value (for example, 0). However, when the special AT state termination condition is satisfied in a state where the addition value is stored in the addition value storage area of the storage unit 190, the addition stored in the addition value storage area of the storage unit 190 at that time. A process of adding the value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 and resetting the added value stored in the added value storage area of the storage means 190 to an initial value (for example, 0) is performed. In addition, in the special AT state, the addition value may be added to the stored value of the special AT end determination counter without being limited to the AT end determination counter 198. For example, the AT end is determined according to the execution timing of the addition lottery. A case where a given added value is added to the stored value of the determination counter 198 and a case where a given added value is added to the stored value of the special AT end determination counter may be switched. In the extra lottery in the special AT state, the extra lottery table C is selected regardless of the game state and the result of the internal lottery.

  In addition, when the production state is the special AT state, the production control unit 180 sets the replay E winning assistance flag in the production flag storage unit 196 based on the fact that it is normally won in the extra lottery at the time of replay A winning, Based on the special winning in the extra lottery at the time of winning Replay A, control for setting the Replay D winning assistance flag in the effect flag storage means 196 is performed.

  In addition, every time a game in the special AT state is performed, the effect control unit 180 performs decrement update by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of games for one game from the stored value of the special AT end determination counter. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the stored value of the special AT end determination counter is started from the next game of the game in which the game state has shifted to the second bonus establishment state in the special AT preparation state. When the stored value of the special AT end determination counter reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), it is determined that the special AT state end condition is satisfied, and the special AT flag set in the effect flag storage unit 196 is determined. Is cleared to end the special AT state, and the AT flag is set in the effect flag storage unit 196 to perform control for setting the effect state to the AT state. Then, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 in the AT state shifted from the special AT state is started on the condition that the state has shifted to the first bonus establishment state. In the present embodiment, when the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the special AT state, it is determined that the update interruption condition of the special AT end determination counter is satisfied, and the effect state is maintained in the special AT state. On the other hand, the decrement update regarding the stored value of the special AT end determination counter is interrupted, and the decrement update of the special AT end determination counter is resumed when the gaming state returns to the second bonus established state after the end of the second bonus state. It is designed to play undigested games.

  In addition, when the production state is the AT state, the production control means 180 notifies the stop button pressing order on condition that the gaming state stays in the first bonus establishment state when the batting order bell is won. Control is performed to cause the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to execute a first prize assisting effect that assists in the winning of the bell. That is, when staying in a gaming state other than the first bonus establishment state, the first winning assist effect is not executed.

  In addition, when the production state is the special AT preparation state, the production control unit 180 notifies the pressing order of the stop button only when the batting order bell L is won, and performs the first prize auxiliary production that assists the winning of the bell. Control that is executed by the display device 330 and the acoustic device 340 is performed. In other words, when the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell R1, and the batting order bell R2 are won, the first winning assist effect is not executed. In this embodiment, the first big bonus (BB1) can be won when the batting order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell R1, and the batting order bell R2 are won in the first bonus established state. The state can be changed.

  In addition, when the production state is the special AT state, the production control means 180 is that the game state stays in the second bonus establishment state when any of the batting order bell L, batting order bell C1, or batting order bell R1 is won. As a condition, the display device 330 and the audio device 340 are controlled to execute the first winning assist effect that informs the pressing order of the stop button and assists the winning of the bell. That is, when staying in a gaming state other than the second bonus establishment state, the first winning assist effect is not executed.

  In addition, when the production state is the special AT state, the production control means 180, if either the batting order bell C2 or the batting order bell R2 wins, the game state stays in the second bonus establishment state, Control is performed to cause the display device 330 and the sound device 340 to execute a first winning assist effect (winning assist effect) for notifying the pressing order of the stop buttons and assisting the winning of the cherry. Various effects can be adopted as the first winning assistance effect. For example, a correct batting order corresponding to the winning batting order bell is notified and the cherry symbol “CH” is drawn into the display position on the active line. An effect image informing that the stop button B1 is pressed at a possible timing can be displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD. In the present embodiment, when the stop button is pressed at an appropriate timing in accordance with the correct answer hit order notified in the first prize assisting effect, the cherry wins and even if the cherry win is missed, the bell always wins. Even if either Cherry or Bell wins, 6 medals can be obtained, so that the player can increase the number of medals on hand.

  In addition, in the special AT state, the production control means 180 replays when replay A, replay D, and replay E are won in duplicate, or when replay A, replay B, replay D, and replay E are won in duplicate. On condition that the D winning assist flag is set in the effect flag storage means 196, a second winning assist effect that informs the pressing order of the stop button and assists in the replay D winning is given to the display device 330 and the sound device 340. If the replay E winning assist flag is set in the effect flag storage means 196, the display device 330 or the second winning assist effect that notifies the stop button pressing order and assists the replay E winning is executed. Control to be executed by the audio device 340 is performed. Various effects can be adopted as the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of Replay D or Replay E. For example, an effect image for notifying a specific batting order that can win Replay D or Replay E is liquid crystal. It can be displayed on a display LCD.

2-2. Next, the control method employed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described in detail.

  In the present embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), a bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state not only when winning the cherry but also when winning the batting order bell. You can win a prize. Specifically, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) and the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the special small role A1 and the special small role A2 constituting the batting order bell. Are assigned common symbols for the first reel R1 and the third reel R3, and the winning order bell C1, the hitting order bell C2, the hitting order bell R1, and the hitting order bell R2 are selected when the first bonus is established. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed, the stop button B2 is at a timing at which the special small combination A1 or special small combination A2 included in the batting order bell cannot be won. Is pressed, the first big bonus (BB1) can be won, and the batting order bell C2 in the second bonus establishment state Or, when any of the batting order bells R2 is won, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is pressed first, the special small role A2 included in the batting order bell may be won. If the stop button B2 is pressed at a timing when it is not possible, the second big bonus (BB2) can be won. For this reason, in the present embodiment, even if the state once shifts to the bonus establishment state (the first bonus establishment state, the second bonus establishment state), the stop button B1 is pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed to avoid a penalty. When B3 is pressed, a bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state can be won, and the gaming state is more likely to fluctuate than the above embodiment, but the production state is the AT state. If the special AT state is set, the winning of the bell or cherry is assisted by the winning assistance effect, so that it is possible to avoid the bonus winning in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. It is easy to maintain the gaming state.

  In the present embodiment, in such a bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), when either the batting order bell C2 or the batting order bell R2 is won in the internal lottery, the correct batting order is used. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, different types of small roles are generated depending on the types of bonuses (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus (BB2)) in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. A technique of changing the control for stopping the rotating reel is adopted so that a winning can be made. Hereinafter, the case where the batting order bell C2 is won by the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state and the case where the batting order bell C2 is won by the internal lottery in the second bonus establishment state will be specifically described as examples.

  First, when the batting order bell C2 is won by the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order (specific operation order) of B2 → B3 → B1, A logic operation is performed to obtain the priority for the stop position candidate with respect to the pressed detection position so that the priority becomes higher as the stop position where the number of medals to be paid out becomes higher. For the first reel R1, the stop position where the bell symbol “BL” constituting the winning pattern of the bell is displayed at the display position on the effective line, and the cherry symbol “CH” constituting the winning pattern of the cherry is on the effective line. The priority is the same as the stop position displayed at the display position. Therefore, when the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing when both the bell symbol “BL” and the cherry symbol “CH” are within the range of 0 to 4 frames from the pressing detection position, the stop control table is referred to. Thus, the stop position is determined.

  In the present embodiment, in the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order bell C2 is won in the first bonus establishment state, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, the bell wins over the cherry. The number of sliding frames relative to the pressed detection position is set so that the bell wins, and the bell symbol “BL” is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less for each of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Therefore, regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3, the first reel R1 so that the bell wins while avoiding the first big bonus (BB1), special small combination A2, special small combination B, and cherry winning. The stop position of the third reel R3 can be determined, and the first reel R1 to the first reel R1 are displayed so that the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective line. The reel R3 is stopped so that the bell to win.

  On the other hand, when the batting order bell C2 is won by the internal lottery in the second bonus establishment state, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct answer order (specific operation order) of B2 → B3 → B1, the payout of the small role A logic operation is performed to obtain a priority for a stop position candidate with respect to a pressed detection position so that the priority is higher for a stop position where the number of medals to be paid out increases.

  In the present embodiment, in the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order bell C2 is won in the second bonus established state, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, the cherry is won more than the bell. The number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that there is a case where the cherry wins and the case where the bell wins when the cherry cannot be won, and the cherry symbol for the first reel R1 is set. Since only three “CH” s are arranged, the first big bonus (BB1), the special small role A2, and the special small role B are avoided so that the cherry wins in preference to the bell. The stop position of the reel R1 to the third reel R3 can be determined, and the bell symbol “BL” regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B2 and B3. The second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped so as to be displayed at the display position on the effective line, and the cherry symbol “CH” exists within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the press detection position. When the stop button B1 is pressed, the first reel R1 is stopped so that the cherry symbol “CH” is displayed at the display position on the effective pay line, and the cherry wins. When the stop button B1 is pressed at a timing when the cherry symbol “CH” does not exist within the range of four frames, the first reel R1 is set so that the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective pay line. Stop and Bell will win.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), when a plurality of types of small roles (bells, cherries) having the highest payout are won in succession, Depending on the type of bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus (BB2)) for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the small combination that has the highest payout is selected among the multiple types By changing the type, control is performed to stop the spinning reel so that different types of small roles (bells, cherries) can win according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. It has changed.

  In the present embodiment, when the production state is set to the special AT state in the second bonus establishment state, the first winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the cherry when winning the batting order bell C2 or the batting order bell R2 is performed. Since the cherries are awarded by pressing the stop button B1 at an appropriate timing in accordance with the winning assistance effect, in the game in the second bonus establishment state, the winning probability of the small role is the first The game is more likely to win a cherry than the game in the first bonus establishment state set to be the same as the two bonus establishment state. Thus, according to the present embodiment, the reels are stopped in the game in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. Since the aspect changes and the gameability can be changed, it is possible to improve the gameability in the game from winning a bonus to winning a prize. Further, according to the present embodiment, when the hitting bell C2 and the hitting bell R2 are won, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed to avoid the penalty, the cherry wins Therefore, in a game in the second bonus establishment state in which the production state is not set to the special AT state, the second bonus establishment in which the production state is set to the special AT state while preventing the winning probability of the cherry from rising. It is possible to increase the probability of winning a cherry in a game in a state.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), the bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus ( BB2)) according to the type, the replay D changes the winning mode that overlaps with other replays, and when the replay D wins with other replays in the internal lottery, the stop button B3 is selected first When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the pressing order, control is performed to stop the rotating reel so that different types of replays are won according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. The method to change is adopted. Specifically, the internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table B is performed in the first bonus establishment state, and the internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table C is performed in the second bonus establishment state. Then, in the internal lottery table B, as shown in FIG. 14, the correspondence relationship between the winning combination and the random number value is set so that there is a case where the replay D overlaps with the replay A, and in the internal lottery table C, As shown in FIG. 14, the correspondence relationship between the combination and the random number value is set so that there is a case where the replay D wins in duplicate with the replay A, the replay B, and the replay E. For this reason, in the game in the first bonus establishment state, Replay D is won in duplicate with Replay A. On the other hand, in the game in the second bonus establishment state, Replay D is replayed with Replay A, Replay B, and Replay. Duplicate with E to win. In the stop control table that is referred to when the replay A and the replay D are won in the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, the stop button B1 is displayed in the order in which the stop button B3 is first pressed (specific operation order). When B3 is pressed, the number of sliding frames for the pressed detection position is set so that Replay D wins, while Replay A, Replay B, Replay D, and Replay E in the internal lottery in the second bonus establishment state. In the stop control table that is referred to when two or more wins are won, the replay E wins when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B3 is pressed first (specific operation order). The number of sliding frames for the pressed detection position is set. For this reason, in the game in the first bonus establishment state, when the replay A and the replay D are won in the internal lottery, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of pressing the stop button B3 first, In the game where the replay D is won and the second bonus is established, when the replay A, the replay B, the replay D, and the replay E are won in the internal lottery, the stop button B3 is first pressed in the order. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, the replay E wins. Thus, according to the present embodiment, the reels are stopped in the game in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. Since the aspect changes and the gameability can be changed, it is possible to improve the gameability in the game from winning a bonus to winning a prize.

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

  First, in the present embodiment, in the normal state, the first bonus establishment state, or the second bonus establishment state, when a cherry is won by an internal lottery, an AT lottery is performed, and when an AT lottery is won, an effect state is AT. The state is set, and the assist time game is played in the first bonus establishment state. When the production state is set to the AT state in the first bonus establishment state, the pressing order of the stop button that can make the bell win by the first prize assistance production is notified, so according to the prize assistance production If the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, it is possible to easily win the bell while avoiding the first big bonus (BB1). In this embodiment, when the replay D is won by internal lottery in the AT state, it is determined that the AT state interruption condition is satisfied, the decrement update regarding the stored value of the AT end determination counter 198 is interrupted, and the AT end determination is performed. The production state is set to the special AT preparation state while the stored value of the counter 198 is maintained. In the special AT preparation state, when the winning order bell C1, the batting order bell C2, the batting order bell R1, or the batting order bell R2 is won in the internal lottery, the first winning assist effect is not performed, so the batting order bell C1 and the batting order bell C2 When one of the batting order bell R1 and the batting order bell R2 is won, the first big bonus (BB1) is won by pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 in the order of pressing the stop button B1 first. When the first big bonus (BB1) wins, the gaming state shifts to the first bonus state, and after the first bonus state ends, the second big bonus (BB2) is won and the gaming state becomes the second bonus established state. When the transition is made, the effect state is set to the special AT state, and the assist time game is played in the second bonus establishment state. And in the 2nd bonus establishment state, stop control at the time of winning of batting order bell C2 and batting order bell R2 is changed, and if stop buttons B1-B3 are pushed down in the correct batting order, cherry can win a prize, The winning probability of cherries is higher than that in the first bonus establishment state where the winning probability of the small role is set to be the same as the second bonus establishment state. And when the production state is set to the special AT state in the second bonus establishment state, the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 that can win the cherry by the first winning assistance production is notified. If the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed at an appropriate timing in accordance with the winning assistance effect, it is possible to win the cherry while avoiding the winning of the second big bonus (BB2). In the special AT state, the drawing state is performed not only when the cherry is won alone but also when the cherry is winning the batting order bell C2 and batting order bell R2, and the production state is the special AT state. The game in the second bonus establishment state set to is a game section that is more advantageous than the game in the first bonus establishment state in which the effect state is set to the AT state. When the stored value of the special AT end determination counter reaches a threshold value (for example, 0) in the special AT state, it is determined that the special AT state end condition is satisfied, and the effect state is set to the AT state. When the gaming state stays in the second bonus establishment state in the AT state, the gaming state can be changed by not performing the first winning assistance effect, and the gaming state is the first bonus. When shifting to the established state, the assist time game is resumed. If the game state stays in the second bonus establishment state in the AT state, the first winning assist effect is not executed when the batting order bell C2 or the batting order bell L2 is won, but the batting order bell L, batting order bell C1, batting order bell You may make it perform a 1st prize assistance production | presentation at the time of the winning of either of L1.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in the game in the first bonus establishment state in which the effect state is set to the AT state, an opportunity to shift to the game in the special AT state is given, and the game in the special AT state is started. When the transition is determined, the game state can be changed, the game is played in the special AT state in the second bonus establishment state, and the production state is set in the special AT state in the second bonus establishment state. In this game, the lottery is performed not only when the cherry is won but also when the batting order bell C2 and batting order bell R2 are won, and the extra lottery is always won, so the production state is set to the AT state. It is easier to win a lottery than the game with the first bonus established, and it is easy to win in the extra lottery, and the lottery flag is set to the winning state. The game playability in the game in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) is changed according to the types of bonuses (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus (BB2)) Therefore, it is possible to improve the playability in games from winning a bonus to winning a prize.

3. Modifications The present invention is not limited to those described in the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made. 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, the case where AT lottery or extra lottery is performed in response to the winning of cherry has been described as an example, but for example, as a small role that triggers execution of AT lottery or extra lottery, the same winning probability as cherry Prepare the set watermelon, and when the first bonus is established, AT lottery or extra lottery will be triggered by the winning of watermelon, but AT lottery or extra lottery will not be triggered by the winning of cherry, the second bonus In the established state, the AT lottery or the extra lottery is performed in response to the winning of the cherry, but the AT lottery or the extra lottery may not be performed in response to the winning of the watermelon. In this way, the AT lottery or extra lottery execution trigger is changed according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, and the bonus is set according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state Since the game playability in the established state (the first bonus established state, the second bonus established state) can be changed, it is possible to improve the game playability from winning the bonus to winning.

  In addition, for example, a watermelon set with the same winning probability as the cherry is prepared as a small role that triggers the execution of the AT lottery or the extra lottery. In the first bonus establishment state, when the watermelon is won, the first bonus establishment state AT lottery or extra lottery to win with a higher probability than at the time of winning a cherry in the second bonus establishment state, at the time of cherry winning, with a higher probability than the watermelon in the second bonus establishment state An AT lottery or an extra lottery may be performed so as to win. In this way, in the first bonus establishment state, when watermelon is won, the game becomes easier to win in the AT lottery or the addition lottery than in the case of cherry winning, while in the second bonus establishment state, the watermelon is won when the cherry is won. The game becomes easier to win in the AT lottery or the extra lottery than the time, and in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state) according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state Since the game playability in the game can be changed, it is possible to improve the game playability from winning a bonus to winning a game.

  In the first embodiment, the AT lottery table or the like is set so that the payout rate is the same regardless of whether the game is played in either the first bonus established state or the second bonus established state. However, the payout rate may be different depending on the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. For example, in the first bonus establishment state, the winning probability of the small bonus is maintained to be the same as that of the second bonus establishment state, and the winning probability of the entire replay is set lower than that of the second bonus establishment state. It may be generated. In this way, since the game in the second bonus establishment state can suppress the consumption of medals more than the game in the first bonus establishment state, the game in the second bonus establishment state. However, the rate of appearance is high. By the way, in a gaming machine called a slot machine as in the above embodiment, a set value for adjusting the payout rate is provided, and it is possible to change the payout rate by changing the set value. It has become. Specifically, a plurality of types of internal lottery table groups (internal lottery table A to internal lottery table D) having different player advantages are prepared (AT lottery table group and additional lottery table group as required). A predetermined internal lottery table group or the like is set according to the set value. And according to such a modification, when a player is playing a game in a normal state, the set value is determined depending on whether the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won. The game play rate can be changed at random without any change, and the game store side stays in a predetermined bonus establishment state in advance, so that the game store side does not change the set value. Will be able to change. Similarly, in the second embodiment, in the first bonus establishment state, the winning probability of the small role is maintained the same as the second bonus establishment state, and the winning probability of the entire replay is set to be higher than that in the second bonus establishment state. It may be set low to cause a loss (unfair election). In this way, the game in the second bonus establishment state can be made more advantageous than the game in the first bonus establishment state.

  In the first embodiment, the case where the AT state is terminated when the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the AT state has been described as an example. When the first big bonus (BB1) or the second big bonus (BB2) is won, it is determined that the update interruption condition of the AT end determination counter 198 is satisfied, and the production state is maintained in the AT state, while the AT state is maintained. Decrement update regarding the stored value of the end determination counter 198 is interrupted, and the AT end determination is triggered when the gaming state shifts to the first bonus established state or the second bonus established state after the first bonus state or the second bonus state ends. The decrement update of the counter 198 may be resumed so that an undigested game is played. In this case, if the first big bonus (BB1) wins in the AT state and the gaming state shifts to the second bonus establishment state after the end of the first bonus state, the replay D is performed in the second bonus establishment state. Since the winning probability is higher than that in the first bonus establishment state, at the time of overlapping winning of Replay A and Replay D in the second bonus establishment state, the game play rate is equal to that in the case where the game is performed in the first bonus establishment state. It is possible to add the lottery and the second winning assistance effect with a predetermined probability. If the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the AT state and the gaming state shifts to the first bonus establishment state after the second bonus state ends, the winning probability of the replay D is the first in the first bonus establishment state. Since it is lower than the 2 bonus establishment state, the AT end determination counter is set so that the payout rate is equal to that when the game is played in the 2nd bonus establishment state when the replay A and the replay D are overlapped in the 1st bonus establishment state. The addition value for 198 can be adjusted.

  In the second embodiment, in the bonus establishment state (first bonus establishment state, second bonus establishment state), when a plurality of types of small roles (bell, cherry) having the highest payout are both won, Depending on the type of bonus (first big bonus (BB1), second big bonus (BB2)) for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the small combination that has the highest payout is selected among the multiple types By changing the type, control is performed to stop the spinning reel so that different types of small roles (bells, cherries) can win according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. The case of changing was described as an example, but when the batting order bell L is won in the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, the stop is stopped in the order of first pressing the stop button B1. When the buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, a logic operation is performed to obtain the priority for the stop position candidates according to the types of symbol combinations that can be displayed on the active line, and the special small role B is rotating so as to win a prize. If the batting order bell L is won in the internal lottery in the second bonus established state and the stop button B1 to B3 is pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed, A logic operation for obtaining a priority may be performed according to the number of payouts, and control may be performed to stop the rotating reel so that the bell wins. In this way, when the batting order bell L is won in the internal lottery in the bonus establishment state, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is pressed first, the lottery flag is set to the winning state. By changing the logic calculation mode according to the type of bonus, different types of small roles (bells, special small roles B) can be won according to the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state. In this way, the control for stopping the rotating reel may be changed. In this way, in the first bonus establishment state, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed to avoid the penalty, the bell will not win, so the second The game in the bonus establishment state can be made more advantageous than the game in the first bonus establishment state. Similarly, in the first embodiment, when the striking order bell L is won in the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of pressing the stop button B1 first. The special reel B is controlled to stop the rotating reel so that the winning combination is made, and when the hitting bell L is won in the internal lottery in the second bonus establishment state, the stop is stopped in the order of pressing the stop button B1 first. When the buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, control may be performed to stop the rotating reel so that the bell wins. In this way, the game in the second bonus establishment state becomes easier to win the bell in the game in the second bonus establishment state than in the game in the first bonus establishment state. Since it becomes higher, the payout rate can be changed according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state have different winning probabilities and winning modes has been described as an example. The established state and the second bonus established state may be set to be the same. In this case, when the replay is won in a specific winning mode in the internal lottery in the bonus establishment state, the replay flag is rotating so that different replays are won according to the type of bonus set in the winning state. The reel may be stopped. For example, when the replay A (specific role) and the replay C are won in the internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, the replay A wins regardless of the pressing order of the stop button, and the second bonus establishment state. When Replay A and Replay C are won in the internal lottery, Replay C may win regardless of the pressing order of the stop buttons. In this way, since the reel stop mode in the game in the bonus establishment state can be changed according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the gameability can be changed. It is possible to improve the playability in games ranging from winning to winning.

  In the above embodiment, the case where one effective line is provided has been described as an example. However, a plurality of effective lines may be set. In this case, when a specific winning combination is won in the internal lottery in the bonus establishment state, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the specific winning combination is different depending on the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set in the winning state. The rotating reel may be stopped so as to be displayed on the effective line. For example, in addition to the effective line L1, an effective line L2 constituted by the lower stages of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is provided, and when the cherry is won by internal lottery in the first bonus establishment state, The symbol combination indicating the winning form is displayed on the effective line L1, and when the cherry is won in the internal lottery in the second bonus establishment state, the symbol combination indicating the winning form of the cherry is displayed on the effective line L2. You may do it. Furthermore, the lottery mode of the AT lottery or the extra lottery may be changed depending on whether the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the cherry is displayed on the active line L1 or the active line L2. . That is, the lottery mode of the AT lottery or the extra lottery may be changed according to the displayed effective line even for the same combination. In the first bonus establishment state, only the effective line L1 may be activated, and in the second bonus establishment state, only the effective line L2 may be activated. In this way, since the reel stop mode in the game in the bonus establishment state can be changed according to the type of bonus in which the lottery flag is set to the winning state, the gameability can be changed. It is possible to improve the playability in games ranging from winning to winning.

  In the above embodiment, the case where bonuses (first big bonus (BB1) and second big bonus (BB2)) are won independently in the normal state has been described as an example. However, the bonus overlaps with replays and small roles. You may make it win.

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

  In the above embodiment, the case where the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are set as bonuses has been described as an example. However, three or more types of bonuses may be set. . In this case, in the bonus establishment state, the winning probability of the specific replay when the lottery flag of at least one bonus is set to the winning state and when the lottery flag of another bonus is set to the winning state. Or the reel stop control at the time of winning the specific replay and the specific replay, the reel stop control at the time of winning the specific small role, and the lottery mode of the AT lottery or extra lottery. One of them may be the same regardless of the type of bonus for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state.
