To do. The VDP reads necessary data from the ROM based on a command from the CPU, creates display image map data, and stores it in the VRAM. The image data stored and stored in the VRAM is converted into RGB signals by a D / A conversion circuit provided in the output circuit, output to the display device 10, and displayed on the display unit 11. The RAM of the display control board 210 has a storage area for game information, a storage area for various data, and a work area for the CPU.

  The audio control board 220 synthesizes an audio signal with the signal output from the sub-control board 205 and outputs it to the amplifier. The amplifier amplifies the audio signal and outputs it to the speaker 38.

  The payout control board 240 corresponds to payout control means for controlling payout of game balls, and includes a microcomputer including a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. The payout control board 240 is connected to the main control board 200 through electrical connection means, and receives a control signal output from the main control board 200 to control the payout device 281. The payout control board 240 is operated by the power supplied from the power supply board 250. A control program is stored in the ROM of the payout control board 240. The RAM of the payout control board 240 can store the payout number of prize balls (game balls) to be paid out by the payout device 281 on the basis of detection of winnings in various winning holes, for each payout number for detection of one winning ball. .

  The power supply board 250 generates a power supply for the gaming machine having a predetermined voltage suitable for the gaming machine 1 from the main power supply supplied from the outside of the gaming machine 1 and supplies it to the main control board 200, the sub control board 205, the payout control board 240, and the like. It corresponds to a power supply device. The main power is supplied after being converted into a required voltage at the game store side, in this embodiment, alternating current (AC) 24V. The launch control board 260 controls the launch motor in the launch device 64.

  The main control board 200 includes a jackpot random number counter, a reach random number counter, a variation pattern random number counter, a normal symbol random number counter, a jackpot symbol random number counter, a left symbol random number counter, a medium symbol random number counter, a right symbol A random number counter such as a random number counter is provided.

  The jackpot random number counter is used to determine whether or not the jackpot is won for the winning at the start winning opening 42, and has a jackpot random number value from '0' to '629'. The jackpot random number value (numerical data) in the jackpot random number counter is incremented by 1 every main random number update process to be described later, starting from “0” when the gaming machine is turned on, and then reaches “629”. The above addition is repeated again. The jackpot random number value is acquired due to the fact that a winning at the starting winning opening 42 is detected by the starting winning opening detecting switch. If the acquired jackpot random number value (acquired numerical data) is compared with a preset hit value, it becomes a jackpot (win), and if it does not match, it is lost.

  In the present embodiment, in the low probability state, two of “3” and “397” are set as the winning value, and if the acquired jackpot random number value matches either of these, the result of the determination is a jackpot (that is, The jackpot probability in the low probability state is 2/630). On the other hand, at the time of probability change, “3”, “33”, “53”, “59”, “113”, “173”, “227”, “281”, “337”, “397”, “449”, “ Twelve of 503 ′ are set as winning values, and if the acquired jackpot random number value matches any of these, the result of the determination is a jackpot (that is, the jackpot probability at the time of probability change is 12/630). In this way, the determination unit (the CPU of the main control board 200) determines whether or not the lottery based on the random number acquisition resulting from the establishment of the determination condition of winning the game ball to the start winning opening 42 is a big hit.

  In the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the internal lottery (the lottery with the jackpot symbol random number counter. Details will be described later), the game will be a normal jackpot that is a game in a low probability state even after the jackpot, and a game in a probable state after the jackpot It is distributed to a probable jackpot. In the case of a normal jackpot, among the special symbols (“0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11”), even symbols (“0, 2, 4, 6, 8”) , 10 '') are displayed on the display unit 11 in a stopped manner. In the case of a probable big hit, out of special symbols (“0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11”), odd symbols (“1, 3, 5, 7, 9”) , 11 '') are arranged on the display unit 11 in a stopped manner.

  In the present embodiment, after the normal jackpot game is over, the time is reduced until the determination of success / failure is made a maximum of 100 times. After the determination is made 100 times, the time reduction is canceled and the normal state is maintained until the next jackpot. In addition, after the probable jackpot game is over, the probabilistic state (high probability state) and the short time state are maintained until the next jackpot. In the game in the short time state, as will be described in detail later, the lottery probability per normal symbol is improved from 1/300 to 60/300 (1/5), and the opening time of the opening and closing members 42A, 42B is 1 From 2 seconds to 2 seconds, the number of times of expansion increases from 1 to 3 times. Therefore, in the short time state, it becomes easy to win the start winning opening 42, and it is possible to play a game in anticipation of the next jackpot while suppressing the reduction of the ball.

  The reach random number counter is used for determining whether or not a reach state is reached when the result of the determination is wrong, and includes a reach random number value from ‘0’ to ‘126’. The reach state in the present embodiment is other than the special symbol (for example, the middle special symbol) that is stopped and displayed last among the left special symbol, the middle special symbol, and the right special symbol that are displayed in the display unit 11 with the variable stop. Special symbols (for example, the left special symbol and the right special symbol) are the same (except for the final stop symbol, it is the same as the special bonus combination except for the final stop symbol). Included state).

  This reach random number value starts from “0” when the gaming machine 1 is turned on, and is incremented by 1 for each main random number update process to be described later. Repeat addition. The reach random number value is acquired based on the detection of the winning at the starting winning port 42 by the starting winning port detecting switch, and when the result of the determination is wrong, the numerical value is determined in advance. The reach is determined by comparing with the numerical value. In this embodiment, the reach establishment numerical values are “5”, “17”, “28”, “40”, “51”, “63”, “74”, “86”, “97”, “109”, “ 120 '. In the present embodiment, the reach randomness value based on the jackpot random number value is always reach, so the reach random number value is not used for the presence / absence of reach.

  The variation pattern random number counter is used when selecting a special symbol (identification symbol) or a variation pattern of an effect mode to be described later from the variation pattern table, and includes variation pattern random numbers from “0” to “198”. . The random number value of the fluctuation pattern starts from “0” when the power of the gaming machine 1 is turned on, and is incremented by 1 for each main random number update process described later. When the numerical value reaches “198”, it is set to “0”. Repeat the above addition again. The fluctuation pattern random number value is acquired due to the fact that the winning at the start winning opening 42 is detected by the start winning opening detecting switch.

  The variation pattern table includes a plurality of variation patterns to be displayed on the display unit 11 and is stored in the ROM of the main control board 200. There are six types of variation pattern tables: a low probability state hit table, a low probability state reach loss table, a low probability state lose table, a probability variation state hit table, a probability variation state reach loss table, and a probability variation state loss table. Each variation pattern table is provided with a plurality of variation patterns, and each variation pattern is assigned a variation pattern random value.

  The selection of the variation pattern from the variation pattern table is based on whether the current low probability state or the probability variation state, whether the determination result by the determination unit is a hit or not, whether there is a reach, or not. A corresponding table is selected from among them, and one variation pattern is selected from the selected table based on the variation pattern random value. This selected variation pattern is output to the sub-control board 205 as a variation command. When the sub-control board 205 receives this variation command, the sub-control board 205 determines whether or not to execute a predetermined effect (match effect, symbol background notice effect, etc.) using the effect mode random number counter and the effect random number counter.

  Each variation pattern is set with a variation time for variably displaying a special symbol (identification symbol) and an effect mode described later in a predetermined pattern, and the variation time is set when the variation display of the special symbol on the display unit 11 is started. The

  For the obtained jackpot random number value, jackpot symbol random number value, reach random number value, and variation pattern random number value, a maximum of four each corresponds to the special symbol variation pending number in the corresponding area in the RAM of the main control board 200. Stored and used sequentially.

  The normal symbol random number counter is used to determine the normal symbol per unit. When the gaming machine 1 is powered on, it starts from “0” and is incremented by “1” every main random number update process to be described later to reach “299”. Then, it is rewritten to “0” and the above addition is repeated again. This normal symbol random number is acquired every time the game ball that has passed through the normal symbol variation start gate 55 is detected by the normal symbol variation start switch, and the normal symbol random number which is currently changing in the normal symbol display device 50 is obtained. Except for a maximum of four, they are stored in the normal symbol random value storage area of the RAM of the main control board 200.

  In the low-probability state, if the acquired normal symbol random number value matches “1” set as the winning value, the symbol is normal symbol. That is, the probability per normal symbol in the low probability state is 1/300. On the other hand, in the probability variation state (high probability state) and in the short time state, if it matches any one of “1” to “60” set as the winning establishment value, it is per normal symbol. That is, the probability per normal symbol in the probability variation state (high probability state) and in the short time state is 60/300 (1/5). When the normal symbol is hit, the opening / closing members 42A and 42B provided on both sides of the start winning opening 42 are opened and opened. In the case of per normal symbol in the low probability state, the start winning opening 42 is opened once for 1 second. On the other hand, in the case of the normal symbol per time in the probability variation state and the short time state, the opening / closing members 42A and 42B are opened three times for 2 seconds.

  The jackpot symbol random number counter has a jackpot symbol random number value for determining a stop special symbol to be stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 when a jackpot. The jackpot symbol random number consists of '0' to '11'. When the power is turned on, it starts from '0' and is incremented by '1' every time a normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process described later is reached. Then, it is rewritten to “0” and the above addition is repeated again. The jackpot symbol random number value is acquired during a special symbol selection process in the control of the main control board 200.

  In the jackpot symbol random number value, the number of the square that is stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 is set. When the jackpot symbol random value “1” is acquired, the special stop symbol “1,1,1” is set. When the jackpot symbol random number “2” is acquired, the special symbol “2,2,2” is stopped. Is set as a special symbol for stopping. As described above, a jackpot with an even stop special symbol is usually a big jackpot, and a jackpot with an odd stop special symbol is a promiscuous jackpot.

  The counter for the left symbol random number has a left symbol random number value for determining the left special symbol to be stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 when the result of determining whether or not the jackpot is true. The left symbol random value consists of '0' to '11'. When the power is turned on, it starts from '0' and is incremented by '1' every time a normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process described later is reached. Then, it is rewritten to “0” and the above addition is repeated again. The left symbol random number value is acquired during the special symbol selection process in the control of the main control board 200. A left special symbol that is stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 is set in the left symbol random value. That is, when the left symbol random number value “1” is acquired, the left special symbol “1” is set, and when the left symbol random number value “2” is acquired, the left special symbol “2” is set. The acquired random value is set as the left special symbol.

  The medium symbol random number counter has a medium symbol random number value for determining a medium special symbol to be stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 when the result of determining whether or not the jackpot is true. The medium symbol random value consists of '0' to '11'. When the power is turned on, it starts from '0' and is incremented by '1' every time the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process described later is reached. Then, it is rewritten to “0” and the above addition is repeated again. The middle symbol random number value is acquired during the special symbol selection process in the control of the main control board 200. A medium special symbol that is stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 is set in the medium symbol random value. That is, when the medium symbol random value “1” is acquired, the medium special symbol “1” is set. When the medium symbol random number “2” is acquired, the medium special symbol “2” is set. The acquired random value is set as a medium special symbol.

  The right symbol random number counter has a right symbol random number value for determining the right special symbol to be stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 when the jackpot winning / failing determination result is off. The right symbol random number consists of '0' to '11'. When the power is turned on, it starts from '0' and is incremented by '1' every time the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process described later is reached. Then, it is rewritten to “0” and the above addition is repeated again. The right symbol random number value is acquired in the special symbol selection process in the control of the main control board 200. A right special symbol that is stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 is set in the right symbol random number value. That is, when the right symbol random value “1” is acquired, the right special symbol “1” is set, and when the right symbol random value “2” is acquired, the right special symbol “2” is set. The acquired random value is set as the right special symbol.

  However, for example, in the case where the determination result is wrong, the random number values acquired by the random number counters coincide with each other, or the reach state is passed, although the left random number counter is determined by the reach random number counter. The left design random number value may match the right design random number value even though the numerical value is different from the right design random number value or the reach random number counter determines that there is no reach. In such a case, since the stop special symbol is set in accordance with the result of the determination of the success / failure and the presence / absence of reach, the random number value acquired by each random number counter may not be set as a special symbol as it is (described later) Refer to the symbol selection process).

  The random number counter provided in the sub control board (sub control device) 205 includes an effect mode random number counter and an effect random number counter. The production mode random number counter and the production random number counter have production mode random values and production random values of “0” to “99”, respectively, and a predetermined production based on the variation command transmitted from the main control board 200. It is used when determining the presence / absence of execution and the mode of performance to be executed.

  The effect mode random number counter and the effect random number counter start from “0” when the power is turned on and are incremented by “1” for each random number update process in the control of the sub-control board 205 described later. And the addition is repeated again. The effect mode random number counter and the effect random number counter are acquired in “variable command processing” described later in the control of the sub-control board 205 and used for determining the effect. In the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, in the case of the big hit and off, if the acquired effect mode random value is '0' to '9', the effect mode of "symbol background notice effect" is displayed, and the effect mode When the random value is from “10” to “99”, the “normal variation pattern” effect mode is displayed.

  Here, the game of the gaming machine 1 will be briefly described. In the gaming machine 1, when the game balls launched by the launching device 64 toward the game area 6 win the various winning holes, a predetermined number of gaming balls corresponding to the winning holes become the upper balls receiving tray 36 as the winning balls. To be paid out. When the game ball passes through the normal symbol fluctuation start gate 55, the normal symbol starts to change in the normal symbol display device 50, and stops after a predetermined time fluctuation. At that time, in the case of a normal symbol, “◯” is displayed on the normal symbol display device 50, and the two opening / closing members 42A and 42B of the start winning opening 42 are substantially vertical by the starting winning opening solenoid on the back. It changes from a narrow open state where it is difficult to win a prize to an expanded and open state where it is easy to win a substantially V-shaped (reverse C-shaped), making it easier for a game ball to win. When a game ball enters the start winning port 42 and is detected (wins) by the start winning port detection switch, a predetermined number of game balls are paid out as a winning ball.

  Further, numerical data such as a jackpot random number value, a reach random number value, a variation pattern random number value, etc. are acquired due to the winning of the game ball in the start winning opening 42. The acquired random number value (numerical data) is stored in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200, and the special symbol variation, the determination of the success / failure and the display of the determination result are suspended, and the jackpot random value (numerical value) Number of data), that is, the number of winnings in the starting winning opening (starting winning area) 42 is stored in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 as the special symbol variation holding ball number.

  When there is storage (holding) of random numbers (numerical data) in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200, determination of whether or not to win a jackpot, determination of reach or not, etc. are performed before starting the special symbol variation display. At the same time, a variation pattern is selected from the variation pattern table based on the variation pattern determination random value or the like, and the variation display of the special symbol is started on the display unit 11 based on the selected variation pattern. The change display of the special symbol is executed in accordance with the acquisition order of random values (numerical data) stored in the RAM (holding storage means), that is, the order in which the winning winning opening 42 is won. Further, the stored random number value (numerical data) is erased from the RAM (holding storage means) based on whether or not the validity determination is performed by the validity determination means.

  After a lapse of a predetermined time (variation time set for each variation pattern) from the start of the variation display of the special symbol, the special symbol stops varying and the jackpot determination result is displayed on the display unit 11.

  When the determination result is a big hit, the special symbol is stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 at a scale such as “5, 5, 5”. When the jackpot is reached, a special game (a jackpot game) is executed. In the special game state (big hit game state), the open / close plate 46 of the above-mentioned winning prize opening 45 is opened to make it easier to receive the game ball falling on the surface of the gaming area 6 and to be able to win the winning prize opening 45, When there is a prize at the big prize opening 45, a predetermined number of game balls are paid out as prize balls. The opening / closing plate 46 is closed after a predetermined time has elapsed or when the number of winning balls reaches a predetermined number, and the opening / closing plate 46 is repeatedly opened and closed for a predetermined round (predetermined number of times).

  In this embodiment, it is set to 15 rounds (15R), and in the case of a big hit, the opening / closing of the big winning prize opening 45 is repeated 15 rounds. If the jackpot is a regular jackpot (an even number of special symbols), after the jackpot game is over, the game is put into a short-running state until a hit / fail judgment is made a maximum of 100 times. If the jackpot is a promising jackpot (an odd number of special symbols), after the jackpot game is over, the player is placed in a probabilistic state (high probability state) and a short time state until the next jackpot.

  Next, the control process of the gaming machine 1 will be described. Examples of main flags provided on the main control board (main control device) 200 include a jackpot flag, a jackpot end flag, a probability change flag, a time reduction flag, and the like.

  The main control board 200 performs control processing by the CPU of the microcomputer in accordance with a control program stored in the ROM. FIG. 4 is a flowchart of main processing performed by the main control board 200.

  In the main process, first, device initial setting (S10) is performed. In the device initial setting (S10), stack setting, interrupt time setting, CPU setting, SIO, PIO, CTC setting and the like are performed. Note that the processing required only when the power is turned on is executed only in the first round, and is not executed after that. However, the details are omitted because it is well known.

  Next, an interrupt prohibition process (S20), a main random number update process (S30), and an interrupt permission process (S40) are performed, and then a loop process that returns to the interrupt prohibition process (S20) is performed again. Interrupt processing (S100) is performed.

  In the interrupt prohibition process (S20), even if an interrupt process (S100) is entered every 4 msec, the interrupt is prohibited until the interrupt is permitted. In the next main random number update process (S30), various random numbers are incremented by one for each main random number update process (S30), and when the random number reaches the set upper limit value as described above, it returns to the minimum value and is added again. Is done. The updated random number is stored in the RAM of the main control board 200. In the interrupt permission process (S40), the interrupt process (S100) that enters every 4 msec is permitted.

  In the interrupt process (S100), as shown in FIG. 5, output process (S110), input process (S120), normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S130), winning detection process (S140), normal operation process (S150), special operation processing (S160), reserved ball number processing (S170), and other processing (S180) are performed in order.

  In the output process (S110), an output command (control signal) set in each process, acquired numerical data, and the like are transmitted to each control board. In the input process (S120), signal input is performed when various sensors (switches) attached to the gaming machine 1 are detected. In the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S130), the same process as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S30) performed in the loop process in the main process is performed.

  In the winning detection process (S140), as shown in FIG. 6, it is determined whether or not a winning at the start winning opening 42 has been detected (S140-1). It is determined whether or not a game ball passage to the gate 55 is detected (S140-2). When the game ball passage to the normal symbol variation start gate 55 is not detected, the winning detection process (S140) is ended. On the other hand, when the game ball passing to the normal symbol variation start gate 55 is detected, it is determined whether the number of the normal symbol variation holding balls is 4 or more (S140-3). The process (S140) ends. On the other hand, if the number of normal symbol variation reservation balls is less than 4, 1 is added to the number of normal symbol variation reservation balls (S140-4), the normal symbol random number value is acquired, and the acquired normal symbol random number value is the main control. It is stored in the corresponding area (address) in the RAM of the substrate 200 (S140-5), and this winning detection process (S140) is completed.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S140-1 that a winning at the start winning opening 42 has been detected, it is determined whether the number of special symbol variation holding balls is 4 or more (S140-6). The detection process (S140) ends. On the other hand, if the number of special symbol variation reservation balls is less than four, 1 is added to the number of special symbol variation retention balls (S140-7), and a jackpot random number value, a reach random number value, a variation pattern random number value, etc. are acquired. It is stored in the corresponding area (address) of the RAM (holding storage means) of the control board 200 (S140-8), and this winning detection process (S140) is completed.

  In the normal operation process (S150), as shown in FIG. 7, first, it is confirmed whether the open / close members 42A and 42B provided on both sides of the start winning opening 42 are open (S150-1). If the opening / closing members 42A and 42B are closed (narrow open state), it is confirmed whether or not the normal symbol variation holding ball number is 0 (S150-2), and if it is 0, the normal operation process (S150) is ended. . On the other hand, if the number of normal symbol variation holding balls is not 0, the normal symbol acquired in the normal symbol random number acquisition processing (S140-5) of the winning detection processing (S140) and stored in the RAM of the main control board 200. The random number value is read (S150-3), and it is confirmed whether the current probability variation state (high probability state) (S150-4).

  In the case of a low probability state that is not a probabilistic state, the above obtained normal symbol random value is compared with the established value per normal symbol in the low probability state to check whether they match. If it is per symbol and does not match, it is determined that the symbol is normally out (S150-5). The normal operation process (S150) ends when the normal symbol is out, while the normal opening / closing member 42A, 42B is opened at the opening time of 1 second and the number of times of opening once when the normal symbol is hit. The release process 1 is performed (S150-6), and then the normal operation process (S150) is terminated.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the probability variation state (high probability state) is determined in S150-4, the acquired normal symbol random number value is compared with the established numerical value per ordinary symbol in the probability variation state, and it is confirmed whether or not both match. If it does, it will be per normal symbol in the probability variation state, and if it does not match, it is determined that it is out of the normal symbol (S150-7). The normal operation process (S150) ends when the normal symbol is off. On the other hand, when the normal symbol hits, the open / close member 42A, 42B is opened for 2 seconds and opened three times. The release process 2 is performed (S150-8), and then the normal operation process (S150) ends.

  If it is determined in S150-1 that the opening and closing members 42A and 42B are open, it is confirmed whether or not the opening time of the opening and closing members 42A and 42B has passed (finished) (S150-9), and the opening and closing members 42A and 42B are opened. When the time has not elapsed, the normal operation process (S150) is ended. On the other hand, when the opening time of the opening and closing members 42A and 42B has elapsed, the opening and closing members 42A and 42B are closed (narrow open state). Is performed) (S150-10), and thereafter, the normal operation process (S150) ends.

  In the special operation process (S160), as shown in FIG. 8, it is determined which of the special operation status is 1 to 4 (S160-1 to S160-3). When the special operation status is 1, a special symbol standby process (S160-4) is performed. When the special operation status is 2, a changing process (S160-5) is performed, and the special operation status is In the case of 3, the special symbol confirmation process (S160-6) is performed, and in the case where the special operation status is 4, the special electric accessory process (S160-7) is performed.

  In the special symbol standby process (S160-4) performed when the special operation status is 1, as shown in FIG. 9, it is determined whether or not the number of special symbol variation holding balls is 0 (S160-4-1). If the number of symbol variation holding balls is 0, it is determined whether or not the display unit 11 is in a standby screen (standby screen) where the special symbol is not changing (S160-4-2), and in the standby screen (standby screen). If there is, the special symbol standby process (S160-4) ends. On the other hand, when it is not in the standby screen (standby screen), the standby screen setting process (S160-4-3) for making the display unit 11 the standby screen (standby screen) is performed, and the display unit 11 is switched to the standby screen. (S160-4-4), and then the special symbol standby process (S160-4) is completed.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-4-1 that the number of special symbol variation holding balls is not 0, special symbol jackpot determination processing (S160-4-5) is performed. In the special symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5), as shown in FIG. 10, first, the main control acquired in the special symbol-related random number value acquisition process (S140-8) of the winning detection process (S140). Of the jackpot random number values stored in the RAM (holding storage means) of the substrate 200, the first jackpot random number value is read (S160-4-5-1), and it is confirmed whether the current probability variation state (high probability state). (S160-4-5-2).

  In the case of a low probability state that is not a probabilistic state in S160-4-5-2, the acquired jackpot random number value is compared with the jackpot formation value in the low probability state to confirm whether or not both match, Is a big hit in the low probability state, and if they do not match, it is determined that they are out (S160-4-5-3). In the case of losing, this special symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5) ends, whereas in the case of a jackpot, the jackpot flag is set to ON (S160-4-5-4). The symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5) ends.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-4-5-2 that the probability change is high (high probability state), whether the acquired jackpot random number value is compared with the jackpot value in the high probability state and the two match? If it is confirmed and matches, it is a big hit in the high probability state, and if it does not match, it is determined that it is out (S160-4-5-5). In the case of losing, this special symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5) ends, whereas in the case of a jackpot, the jackpot flag is set to ON (S160-4-5-4). The symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5) ends. This special symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5) corresponds to the process of the success / failure determination means in the present invention for determining whether or not the game is successful due to the establishment of the determination condition.

  Following the special symbol jackpot determination process (S160-4-5), a special symbol selection process (S160-4-6) is performed. In the special symbol selection process (S160-4-6), the special symbol to be stopped and displayed on the display unit 11 is determined. First, in the special symbol selection process (S160-4-6), as shown in FIG. 11, it is determined whether the jackpot flag is ON (S160-4-6-1). A special symbol based on the jackpot symbol random number is set as a stop special symbol (S160-4-4-2). On the other hand, when the jackpot flag is not ON, that is, when it is off, the left / middle / right symbol random number counter (hereinafter, the left symbol random value is referred to as special symbol data 1, medium symbol). Random number value is acquired as special symbol data 2 and right symbol random value is referred to as special symbol data 3) (S160-4-6-3), and random numbers of special symbol data 1, special symbol data 2, and special symbol data 3 are obtained. Are consistent (S160-4-6-4). If they are consistent, it is determined whether the reach random number value matches the reach establishment value (S160-4-6-5).

  When the reach random number value matches the reach establishment value, the reach is present, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 1 is added to the random value of the left special symbol and the special symbol data 2 by one. The special symbol assigned to the random number value is set to the special symbol for stoppage, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 3 is set to the special symbol for stoppage (S160-4-6-6). On the other hand, if the reach random number value does not match the reach establishment value, there is no reach, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 1 is assigned to the random number value of the left special symbol and the special symbol data 2 The special symbol assigned to the random symbol value obtained by adding 1 to the random symbol value of the special symbol data “3” and the special symbol data 3 being stopped is set as the special symbol for the right stop (S160-4-6-7).

  If it is determined in S160-4-6-4 that the random numbers of the special symbol data 1, 2 and 3 do not match, it is determined whether the random values of the special symbol data 1 and 3 match. (S160-4-6-8). If the random numbers of the special symbol data 1 and 3 match, it is determined whether the reach random number value matches the reach establishment value (S160-4-6-9). When the reach random number value matches the reach establishment value, the reach is present, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 1 is assigned to the random number value of the stop left special symbol and the special symbol data 2 The special symbol that is assigned to the random symbol value of the special symbol data 3 that is the special symbol that is stopped and the special symbol data 3 is set to the special symbol that is stopped right (S160-4-6-10). On the other hand, if the reach random number value does not match the reach establishment value, there is no reach, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 1 is assigned to the random number value of the left special symbol and the special symbol data 2 The special symbol assigned to the random symbol value obtained by adding 1 to the random symbol value of the special symbol data “3” and the special symbol data 3 being stopped is set as the special symbol for the right stop (S160-4-6-7).

  If it is determined in S160-4-6-8 that the random numbers of the special symbol data 1 and 3 do not match, that is, the special symbol data 1, 2, and 3 are all different, the reach random number value is It is determined whether or not it matches the established numerical value (S160-4-6-11). If the reach random number value matches the reach establishment value, the reach is present, and the special symbol data 1 and the special symbol data 3 values are assigned to the special symbol data 1 or the special symbol data 3 random values. The special symbol assigned to the random value obtained by adding 1 to the random number value of the special symbol data 1 or the special symbol data 3 that is made the same as the special symbol data 1 or the special symbol data 3 is set. Is set as a special symbol during stoppage (S160-4-6-12). On the other hand, if the reach random number value does not match the reach establishment value, there is no reach, and the special symbol assigned to the random value of the special symbol data 1 is assigned to the random number value of the left special symbol and the special symbol data 2 The special symbol being assigned is the special symbol being stopped, and the special symbol assigned to the random number value of the special symbol data 3 is set as the special symbol for the right stop (S160-4-6-10).

  Subsequently, special symbol variation pattern creation processing (S160-4-7) is performed. In the special symbol variation pattern creation process (S160-4-7), as shown in FIG. 12, it is confirmed whether the gaming state is in the normal state (low probability state) or the probability variation state (high probability state) (S160-4). -7-1). In the normal state, it is confirmed whether or not the big hit flag is ON (whether or not the determination result is big hit) (S160-4-7-2). If the big hit flag is ON, the RAM (holding) of the main control board 200 is held. The variation pattern random value stored in the memory in the first reading order is loaded, and the variation pattern that matches the variation pattern random value in the hit table in the normal state is selected (S160-4-7-3). ).

  On the other hand, when it is determined in S160-4-7-2 that the big hit flag is not ON (the determination result is not right), the first in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 The reach random number value is loaded and compared with the reach establishment value, and if both match, reach is determined, and if not match, reach is not determined (S160-4-7-4). When the reach is present, the first variation pattern random number value in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is loaded, and the variation pattern that matches the variation pattern random number value in the reach lose table in the normal state is selected. (S160-4-7-5). If it is determined in S160-4-7-4 that there is no reach, the first variation pattern random number value in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is loaded, and the variation in the loss table during the normal state. A variation pattern that matches the pattern random value is selected (S160-4-7-6).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-4-7-1 that the probability variation state (high probability state) is in progress, it is confirmed whether or not the big hit flag is ON (whether or not the result of the determination is a big hit) (S160-4-7-7). When the flag is ON, the first variation pattern random number value in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is loaded, and the variation pattern that matches the variation pattern random number value in the hit table in the probability variation state is selected. (S160-4-7-8). On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-4-7-7 that the big hit flag is not ON (the determination result is not right), the first in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 The reach random number value is loaded and compared with the reach establishment value, and if both match, reach is determined, and if not match, reach is not determined (S160-4-7-9).

  If it is determined in S160-4-7-9 that the reach is present, the first variation pattern random number value in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is loaded, and the variation in the reach loss table in the probability variation state. A variation pattern that matches the pattern random value is selected (S160-4-7-10). If it is determined in S160-4-7-9 that there is no reach, the first variation pattern random number value in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is loaded, and the variation in the loss table during the probability variation state. A variation pattern that matches the pattern random value is selected (S160-4-7-11). After selecting the variation pattern, the selected variation command is stored in the transmission buffer (S160-4-7-12), and other necessary processing (S160-4-7-13) is performed. The pattern creation process (S160-4-7) ends. Note that the variation command selected here is transmitted to the sub-control board 205.

  Following the special symbol variation pattern creation processing (S160-4-7), special symbol random number shift processing (S160-4-8) is performed. In the special symbol random number shift process (S160-4-8), in the data storage area of the special symbol variation holding ball number in the RAM of the main control board 200, it is stored in the storage area of the address with the highest load (reading) order. Due to the fact that data such as special symbol main random number values (big hit random number values, reach random number values, fluctuation pattern random number values) are loaded in the previous processing and become vacant, the loading order will be the second and subsequent addresses With respect to data such as the stored special symbol main random number values (big hit random number values, reach random number values, fluctuation pattern random number values), the address is shifted up by one.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, first, a special symbol (identification symbol) based on the determination result of the success / failure determination unit is displayed, so that the above-mentioned information stored in the RAM of the main control board 200 is displayed. 1 is subtracted from the number of special symbols fluctuation reserved balls (for example, 2 for the number of reserved balls is set to 1 and 3 is set to 2) (S160-4-8-1). The corresponding data is shifted to the RAM address of the number of reserved balls obtained by subtracting 1 from each number of reserved balls (S160-4-8-2), and then the lowest order (the load order is the last, the fourth in this embodiment). 0 is set to the RAM address corresponding to the number of reserved balls (S160-4-8-3).

  Following the special symbol random number shift process (S160-4-8), a special symbol variation start setting process (S160-4-9) is performed. In the special symbol variation start setting process (S160-4-9), settings such as preparation of a command necessary for starting the variation of the special symbol are performed. After the special symbol variation start setting process (S160-4-9), the special operation status is set to 2 (S160-4-10), the waiting state is canceled (S160-4-11), and the special symbol is set. The standby process (S160-4) ends.

  In the changing process (S160-5) performed when the special operation status is 2, as shown in FIG. 14, a special operation timer determination process is performed (S160-5-1). Specifically, it is determined whether or not the variation time of the special symbol (the variation time of the variation pattern) has ended (whether or not the operation timer = 0) (S160-5-2). The changing process (S160-5) ends. On the other hand, if the variation time has ended, a variation stop command is set (S160-5-3). Subsequently, after the special operation status is set to 3 (S160-5-4) and other necessary processing (S160-5-5) is performed, this in-fluctuation processing (S160-5) ends.

  In the special symbol determination process (S160-6) performed when the special operation status is 3, as shown in FIG. 15, it is first determined whether or not the big hit flag is ON (“1”), that is, whether or not the big hit flag. (S160-6-1). When the jackpot flag is ON, that is, when the jackpot is big, a round counter per 15R is set (S160-6-2), and the special operation status is set to 4 (S160-6-3). (S160-6) ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-6-1 that the jackpot flag is OFF, that is, it is out of place, the special action status is set to 1 (S160-6-4), and this special symbol confirmation process (S160-6) ) Ends.

  In the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) performed when the special operation status is 4, as shown in FIG. 16, the probability variation flag is turned off (S160-7-1), and the jackpot opening has been performed. No. (whether or not a video indicating that a big hit is to be started is displayed on the display unit 11) is confirmed (S160-7-2). If the jackpot opening is not performed, the jackpot opening is performed, or if it is confirmed that the jackpot opening is performed, then whether the jackpot end flag is ON ("1") or not It is judged (S160-7-3).

  When the jackpot end flag is not ON, that is, when the jackpot game is not ended, it is determined whether or not the big winning opening 45 is currently open (S160-7-4). It is determined whether or not it is the opening time of the special winning opening 45 (S160-7-5). In the case of the opening time of the big winning opening 45, the opening process of the big winning opening is performed (S160-7-6), and then this special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is ended. On the other hand, when it is not the opening time of the special winning opening 45, the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is ended.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S160-7-4 that the big winning opening 45 is open, ten game balls are won in the big winning opening 45 (S160-7-7), or the round end time has elapsed (S160-7). Whether it is any of (8) to (8), and if not, the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is terminated. On the other hand, when 10 game balls are won in the big winning opening 45 or the round end time has elapsed, the big winning opening closing process (S160-7-9) and the value of the round counter are decremented by one. (S160-7-10) is performed (as described above, since the number of rounds of the jackpot game is 15R in this embodiment, subtraction is started from 15). In the special winning opening closing process (S160-7-9), the special winning opening closing command is set in the output buffer.

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the round counter is 0 (S160-7-11). If the round counter is not 0, the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is ended as it is, When the round counter is 0, jackpot end processing (S160-7-12) is performed. Thereafter, the jackpot end flag is turned ON (S160-7-13), and the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is ended.

  On the other hand, when the jackpot end flag is ON (“1”) in S160-7-3, that is, when the jackpot end flag is determined to be ended, the process of setting the jackpot end flag to OFF (S160-7-14), Is turned off (S160-7-15), and then it is confirmed whether the special symbols that have stopped in a rounded pattern are probability variation symbols (odd numbers) (S160-7-16). If the stopped special symbol is a probability variation symbol, the probability variation flag is turned ON again (S160-7-17). Thereafter, the special operation status is set to 1 (S160-7-18), and this special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is completed. On the other hand, in S160-7-16, if the stopped special symbol is not the probability variation symbol, the special electric accessory processing (S160-7) is performed without turning on the probability variation flag (while the probability variation flag is turned off). Ends.

  Following the special operation process (S160), the reserved ball number process (S170) is performed. In the reserved ball number processing (S170), as shown in FIG. 17, the number of reserved balls of the current special figure and normal symbol is loaded (S170-1), and the number of held balls is set as a special figure hold command and a general figure hold command. It is set in the output buffer (S170-2). By this retained ball number processing (S170), the memory related to the retained ball number in the RAM (holding storage means) of the main control board 200 is set to be output to the sub-control board 205.

  After the reserved ball number processing (S170), other processing (S180) is performed. In the other process (S180), various other processes necessary for the game are performed as necessary.

  Next, processing performed by the sub control board 205 will be described. In the sub control main process (S200) performed by the sub control board 205, as shown in FIG. 18, first, a CPU initialization process is performed (S201). Specifically, stack setting, CPU setting, SIO, CTC setting, and the like are performed. When the power-off signal is turned on, it is determined whether or not the content stored in the RAM of the sub-control board 205 is normal (S202). If normal, the loop process is performed as it is. On the other hand, if the content stored in the RAM is not normal, the loop is performed after the RAM is initialized (S203).

  The sub-control board 205 that performs such sub-control main processing (S200) performs reception interrupt processing (S300) as shown in FIG. The reception interrupt process (S300) is a process for receiving a command (control signal) from the main control board 200. In the reception interrupt process (S300), first, it is confirmed whether the strobe (STB) signal from the main control board 200 is ON (S301). When the strobe signal is ON, that is, when the strobe signal is input to the external INT input unit, The command (control signal) output from the main control board 200 is received and stored in the RAM (S302). Here, the commands received from the main control board 200 include a winning command, a variation command, jackpot determination data, hold number data, and the like. On the other hand, if the strobe signal is not ON, the reception interrupt process (S300) is terminated at that time.

  Further, the sub-control board 205 performs a 2 ms timer interrupt process (S400) as shown in FIG. In the 2 ms timer interrupt process (S400), a data output process (S401), an input process (S402), and a watchdog timer process (S403) are performed. In the data output process (S401), a process for generating and outputting a lamp lighting pattern, a sound pattern, and the like every 2 ms, and control data for driving a driven object are generated. In the input process (S402), for example, the operation status of the game button switch 67 is input. In the watchdog timer process (S403), a process for resetting the watchdog timer is performed.

  Further, the sub-control board 205 performs a 10 ms timer interrupt process (S500) as shown in FIG. In the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S500), the switch state acquisition process (S501), the command reception permission confirmation process (S502), the lower dish state confirmation process (S503), the loop scenario resetting process (S504), and the command monitoring process (S505) Lamp processing (S506), switch processing (S507), command transmission processing (S508), etc. are performed.

  In the switch state acquisition process (S501), the switch data created in the 2 ms timer interrupt process is stored as switch data for the 10 ms timer interrupt process. In the command reception permission confirmation process (S502), a determination of the effect prohibition period such as when the RAM is cleared is performed. In the lower dish state confirmation process (S503), a timer for full notification of the lower ball tray 37 is set. In the loop scenario resetting process (S504), effects are set at regular intervals such as a customer waiting effect.

  In the command monitoring process (S505), a command (control signal) received from the main control board 200 is analyzed, and a process corresponding to the command is performed. As shown in FIG. 22, in the command monitoring process (S505), it is first determined whether a command (control signal) has been received from the main control board 200 (S505-1). When no command is received from the main control board 200, the command monitoring process (S505) ends.

  On the other hand, when a command is received from the main control board 200, it is determined whether or not the command is the above-mentioned variable command (S505-2), and when it is not a variable command, it is determined whether or not it is a customer waiting command (S505). -3). If the command is neither a change command nor a customer waiting command, other command processing is performed (S505-4), and the command monitoring processing (S505) ends.

  On the other hand, if the received command is a customer waiting command in S505-3, customer waiting command processing is performed (S505-5), and the command monitoring processing (S505) ends. The customer waiting command process (S505-5) includes, for example, a process of controlling the voice control board 220 so that the volume of the music fades out if the music is in the music. In the customer waiting command process (S505-5), the special symbol and the normal symbol are stopped when there is no hold for determining whether or not the jackpot and the normal symbol are hit in the main process (when all the hold is exhausted). After that, the command is transmitted from the main control board 200.

  If the received command is a variation command in S505-2, the variation command processing (S505-6) showing the details of the flow in FIGS. 23 and 24 is performed. The variation command process (S505-6) is based on the variation pattern set in the special symbol variation pattern creation process (S160-4-7), and more specific effects (a so-called supermarket using the display device 10). Reach production etc.) is selected / executed, and the production mode (production pattern) is determined using the production mode random number counter and production random number counter, and a privilege (usually big hit or probable big hit) is given, Or it is the process which alert | reports a deviation. Based on the specific contents of the variable command processing, an effect mode that suggests the provision of a privilege (usually a big jackpot or a probable big jackpot) is displayed on the display unit (display area) 11 of the display device 10 as the gaming state progresses. The means corresponds to “effect mode display means” in the present invention.

  After command monitoring processing (S505) including such variable command processing (S505-6), ramp data to be output is generated in ramp processing (S506). Thereafter, in the switch process (S507), the switch valid time is managed and the operation is set. Also, processing based on the data stored in the switch status acquisition processing is performed. Subsequently, in the command transmission process (S508), if there is a transmission command, the command is transmitted. As a result, the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S500) ends. Note that other processing may be included in the 10 ms timer interrupt processing (S500) in accordance with the function of the gaming machine 1 or the like.

  Next, the variation command process (S505-6) will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. In the variation command process (S505-6), first, whether or not the received variation command is a variation command that becomes a big hit (normal jackpot or probable variation big hit) (whether or not it is an effect when special symbols are arranged in a wide array). It is determined (S505-6-1). If the command is a big hit variation command, then an effect mode random value of “0” to “99” is acquired by the effect mode random number counter, and the acquired effect mode random value is “ It is determined whether or not it is a random value for performing the “design background announcement effect”, that is, whether it is any random value from “0” to “9” (S505-6-2).

  Here, in the “symbol background notice effect”, the first display area 81 that is normally displayed on the entire screen of the display unit 11 of the display device 10 as described later has a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction. This is a notice effect pattern in which the second display area 82 which is inclined and overlapped with the back side of the first display area 81 is visible. Therefore, the symbol background notice effect is a notice effect pattern that is displayed so that the first display area 81 and the second display area 82 arranged so as to overlap the back side of the first display area 81 are separated and can be seen simultaneously. is there.

  And the acquired effect mode random value is a random value for performing the “symbol background notice effect”, that is, when any of the effect mode random values of “0” to “9” is acquired. First, on the first display area 81 displayed on the display unit 11 of the display device 10, after the left, middle and right special symbols start to change, the left, middle and right special symbols can be visually recognized. It is decelerated and changed (FIG. 25 (1)-(2)). Then, the first display area 81 displayed on the display unit 11 of the display device 10 is darkened, that is, the first display area 81 is temporarily darkened to be opaque, and the shape of each special symbol is made transparent. The second display area 82 arranged so as to overlap the back side of the first display area 81 from each special symbol that is slowly changing is set to be visible. (FIG. 25 (2)) (S505-6-3).

  Then, the character 83 displayed on the second display area 82 is moved so that the portion of the character 83 that overlaps each special symbol that is slowly changing can be visually recognized (FIG. 25 (2)) (S505-). 6-3). Thereby, it is possible to attract the player's interest to the effect display on the second display area 83 arranged so as to overlap the back side of the first display area 81.

  Thereafter, the entire surface of the first display area 81 is inclined at a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction, and the left, middle, and right transparent on the first display area 81 inclined in the back direction. The special symbol is continuously displayed at a speed at which it can be visually recognized (FIG. 25 (3)) (S505-6-4). In addition, the left, middle, and right special symbols are displayed with small fluctuations at normal speed on the upper left side of the second display area 82, and the character 83 is displayed at the center of the second display area 82 in the first display area 81. It arrange | positions so that a front-end | tip center part may be opposed (FIG. 25 (3)) (S505-6-4).

  In addition, the first display area 81 tilted in the back direction and the area that does not overlap the tilted first display area 81 of the second display area 82 are separated by the outer peripheral portion of the first display area 81 and the display unit 11. (FIG. 25 (3)) (S505-6-4). Thereby, the entire character 83 and the like arranged on the second display area 82 can be almost seen, and the player's interest can be strongly attracted.

  Then, the character 83 causes an action toward the first display area 81 on the second display area 82, and an effect image element for the action of the character 83 is displayed at the center of the first display area 81. For example, the variation in the normal speed of the left, middle and right special symbols is displayed small on the upper left side of the second display area 82, and the character 83 jumps up on the second display area 82, Fire a beam toward the center. Then, an effect image element 85 representing an explosion is displayed in the center of the first display area 81 where the transparent left, middle and right special symbols are continuously displayed at a speed at which they can be visually recognized. (FIG. 26 (4)) (S505-6-5).

  Subsequently, an effect random number value of “0” to “99” is acquired by the effect random number counter, and the acquired effect random value is any one of “0” to “9”. Is determined (S505-6-6). That is, it is determined whether or not “chance?” Is a random value that is displayed in the center of the first display area 81 in place of the effect image element 85 as the reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given.

  If the obtained effect random number value is not any of “0” to “9”, the obtained effect random number value is any one of “10” to “39”. It is determined whether or not it is a numerical value (S505-6-8). That is, it is determined whether or not “chance” is a random value that is displayed in the center of the first display area 81 in place of the effect image element 85 as the reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given.

  Then, when the acquired effect random number value is any one of “10” to “39”, the central display area 81 is replaced with the effect image element 85 and the big hit is given to the central portion. A “chance” surrounded by an oval frame is displayed as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing a degree inclined at a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) (FIG. 26 (5)) (S505). -6-9). On the other hand, if the acquired effect random number value is not any of “10” to “39”, that is, if it is any of “40” to “99”, the effect image element 85 is used instead. At the center of the first display area 81, “hot heat” surrounded by an oval frame as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given is a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction. There is a tilted display (S505-6-10).

  On the other hand, in S505-6-6, when the obtained effect random number value is any one of “0” to “9”, the center portion of the first display area 81 is replaced with the effect image element 85. In addition, “chance?” Surrounded by an oval frame is displayed as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given, tilted by a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction. (S505-6-7). Therefore, when the jackpot is awarded, the reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is granted has an appearance rate of “extreme heat”, “chance”, and “chance?” The reliability is set so that the jackpot is given in the order of “heat”, “chance”, and “chance?”.

  Subsequently, the entire surface of the first display area 81 is rotated toward the front side around the lower edge, and the first display area 81 is displayed again on the entire surface of the display screen, so that the entire surface of the second display area 82 is displayed. Is covered by the first display area 81. At the same time, the reliability suggestion element 86 of “chance?”, “Chance” or “extreme heat” surrounded by an oval frame is also rotated in the near side direction, and is placed in the center of the first display area 81. It is displayed so as to face up. In addition, on the first display area 81, the transparent left, middle and right special symbols are continuously displayed in a variable manner at a speed at which they can be visually recognized (FIG. 26 (6)) (S505-6-11).

  Thereafter, the transparent left, middle, and right special symbols displayed on the first display area 81 are made opaque and “chance?”, “Chance”, or “hot” surrounded by an oval frame. The reliability suggesting element 86 disappears, and the first display area 81 becomes bright over the entire surface. Of the left, middle and right special symbols displayed in the first display area 81, the left special symbol and the right special symbol stop at the winning symbol (for example, “7”), and only the middle special symbol is present. The reach reach fluctuation state is changed (FIG. 27 (7)) (S505-6-12).

  After that, the left, middle, and right special symbols are stopped at the center of the display unit 11 with the irregularities such as “7, 7, 7,” and the fact that the jackpot is given (FIG. 27 ( 8A))) (S505-6-13), the variation command process (S505-6) is completed.

  On the other hand, in S505-6-2, the acquired effect mode random value is a random value that does not perform the “symbol background notice effect”, that is, any effect mode of “10” to “99”. When the random number value is acquired, the left special symbol and the right special symbol among the left, middle, and right special symbols displayed in the first display area 81 are winning symbols (for example, “7”). It stops and it will be in the reach fluctuation state in which only the medium special symbol is changing (FIG. 27 (7)) (S505-6-12).

  After that, the left, middle, and right special symbols are stopped at the center of the display unit 11 with the irregularities such as “7, 7, 7,” and the fact that the jackpot is given is notified (FIG. 28 ( 8A))) (S505-6-13), the variation command process (S505-6) is completed.

  On the other hand, in S505-6-1, if the received variation command is not a variation command that is a big hit (is a variation command that falls out), as shown in FIG. 24, in S505-6-14, The process of S505-6-2 is executed. And the acquired effect mode random value is a random value for performing the “symbol background notice effect”, that is, when any of the effect mode random values of “0” to “9” is acquired. In S505-6-15 to S505-6-17, the processes of S505-6-6 to S505-6-5 are executed (FIGS. 25 (1) to 26 (4)).

  Subsequently, an effect random number value of “0” to “99” is acquired by the effect random number counter, and the acquired effect random value is any one of “0” to “49”. Is determined (S505-6-18). That is, it is determined whether or not “chance?” Is a random value that is displayed in the center of the first display area 81 in place of the effect image element 85 as the reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given.

  If the acquired effect random number value is not any of “0” to “49”, the acquired effect random number value is any one of “50” to “89”. It is determined whether or not it is a numerical value (S505-6-20). That is, it is determined whether or not “chance” is a random value that is displayed in the center of the first display area 81 in place of the effect image element 85 as the reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given.

  Then, when the obtained effect random number value is any one of “50” to “89”, it is a reliability that the jackpot is given to the central portion of the first display area 81 instead of the effect image element 85. A “chance” surrounded by an oval frame is displayed as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing a degree inclined at a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) (FIG. 26 (5)) (S505). -6-21). On the other hand, if the acquired effect random number value is not any of “50” to “89”, that is, if it is any of “90” to “99”, the effect image element 85 is used instead. At the center of the first display area 81, “hot heat” surrounded by an oval frame as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given is a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction. There is a tilted display (S505-6-22).

  On the other hand, in S505-6-18, if the acquired effect random number value is any one of “0” to “49”, the center portion of the first display area 81 is replaced with the effect image element 85. In addition, “chance?” Surrounded by an oval frame is displayed as a reliability suggestion element 86 representing the reliability to which the jackpot is given, tilted by a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back direction. (S505-6-19). Therefore, when the jackpot is not awarded (when the jackpot is missed), the reliability suggestion element 86 indicating the reliability to which the jackpot is given has an appearance rate in the order of “chance?”, “Chance”, and “hot”. It is set so that the probability that the jackpot is not given (probability of losing) increases in the order of “chance?”, “Chance”, and “extreme heat”.

  Subsequently, in S505-6-23 to S505-6-24, the processes of S505-6-11 to S505-6-12 are executed (FIGS. 26 (6) to 27 (7)). After that, the left, middle and right special symbols are stopped and displayed at the center of the display unit 11 with the left and right special symbols such as “7, 6, 7, etc.” and the middle special symbols not being matched, Is confirmed (FIG. 27 (8B)) (S505-6-25), and the variable command process (S505-6) is terminated.

  On the other hand, in S505-6-14, the acquired effect mode random value is a random value that does not perform the “symbol background notice effect”, that is, any effect mode of “10” to “99”. When the random number value is acquired, the left special symbol and the right special symbol among the left, middle, and right special symbols displayed in the first display area 81 are winning symbols (for example, “7”). It stops and it will be in the reach fluctuation state in which only the medium special symbol is changing (FIG. 27 (7)) (S505-6-24).

  After that, the left, middle and right special symbols are stopped and displayed at the center of the display unit 11 with the left and right special symbols such as “7, 6, 7, etc.” and the middle special symbols not being matched, Is confirmed (FIG. 27 (8B)) (S505-6-25), and the variable command process (S505-6) is terminated.

  As described above in detail, in the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the entire surface of the first display area 81 displayed on the display unit 11 of the display device 10 is at a predetermined angle (for example, 60 degrees) in the back side direction.
