Description

スロットマシンが備えるクレジットとは、一般的に、賭数が既に設定済みであることを前提条件として、その後に投入されたメダルが払い出されてしまうことによる煩わしさを解消するための機能を有している。しかしながら、特許文献１に記載のスロットマシンでは、再遊技役が発生すると即座にクレジット可能（クレジット受付時期）となるものであって、再遊技役の発生により賭数が設定されるタイミングとの関係について何ら考慮されていない。このため、特許文献１に記載のスロットマシンにおいては、再遊技役の発生後において、賭数が設定されるタイミングに未だ到達していないときであっても、メダルが投入されるとクレジットされてしまう。その結果、再遊技役の発生後において、賭数設定よりも先にクレジットされてしまうといった違和感を抱かせてしまう虞があった。 Credits provided by slot machines generally have a function to eliminate the annoyance caused by paying out medals that are subsequently placed on the premise that the number of bets has already been set. doing. However, in the slot machine described in Patent Document 1, when a re-gamer is generated, credit is immediately available (credit acceptance time), and the relationship with the timing when the bet amount is set by the occurrence of the re-gamer There is nothing to consider about. For this reason, in the slot machine described in Patent Document 1, even if the timing for setting the bet number has not yet been reached after the occurrence of a re-playing role, credit is given when a medal is inserted. End up. As a result, after the occurrence of a re-game player, there is a possibility that the player may feel uncomfortable that credit will be credited prior to setting the bet amount .

この発明は、かかる実情に鑑み考え出されたものであり、その目的は、再遊技役の発生後において違和感を抱かせることなく遊技用価値を記憶可能にするスロットマシンを提供することである。 The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, and its object is to provide a slot machine that enables storing the value for a game without inspire discomfort after the occurrence of replay role .
