The slot machine is equipped with set changing means for determining any of a plurality of set values for determining the advantage of a player. When the set value is changed by the set changing means while residing at an RT 6 and while executing the ART, a control is made to set the notification mode at a non-ART while keeping the RT6.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 33

Description

  The present invention relates to control after a setting change in a slot machine.

  In a conventional slot machine, a slot machine is known that maintains the RT before the setting change even after the setting change (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

JP 2010-022604 A

In the above-described conventional technique, the state before the setting change is maintained even after the setting change as in the cited document 1, or the game information before the setting change is cleared after the setting change.
Here, when the game information before the setting change is cleared, the RT shifts to the initial state, and the RT initial state may be different from the RT that the player wants to play. In such a case, the player is forced to play a game for shifting RT.
The problem to be solved by the present invention is to initialize only the game information to be initialized without having to perform RT guidance. In addition, it is to provide new playability.

The present invention solves the above problems by the following means. The configuration of the corresponding embodiment is shown in parentheses.
The present invention (second embodiment)
With multiple types of RT as gaming state,
Game state A group consisting of one or more RTs,
A game that includes RT (RT2) that can be transferred from RT (RT1) of game state A group, and that consists of one or more RTs, and the winning probability of replay is set higher than the RT of game state A group State B group;
A game state C group including an RT (RT5) that can be transferred from an RT (RT4) of the game state B group;
A setting changing means for determining any setting value from a plurality of setting values for determining the player's advantage;
In the RT of the gaming state C group, the high notification game (ART) that notifies the operation information of the stop switch advantageous to the player and the notification frequency of the operation information of the stop switch advantageous to the player are higher than those of the high notification game. With low notification games (non-ART) to be lowered,
The gaming state group C includes the RT for high notification games (RT5 and RT6) and the RT for low notification games (RT7),
In the gaming state group C, when it is decided to execute the high notification game, control is performed to shift to the RT for the high notification game,
When the set value is changed by the setting changing means while the high notification game RT is being executed and the high notification game is being executed, the low notification is maintained while maintaining the high notification game RT. It is controlled to be set to a game.

  According to the present invention, when the user stays in the high notification game RT and changes the setting during the execution of the high notification game, the high notification game RT is maintained and the low notification game is set. Only the high notification game can be cleared while the RT stays in the gaming state C group without the RT transition (for example, the transition of the gaming state A group to the RT) after the change. Therefore, there is no need to perform RT guidance after changing the setting. Thereby, new game playability can be provided.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an outline of control of the slot machine 10 in the present embodiment. The configuration of FIG. 1 is common to all the embodiments.
The slot machine 10 includes the main control board 60 and the sub control board 80 as described above.
The main control board 60 and peripheral devices for game progress including operation switches such as the bet switch 40 are electrically connected via an input port or an output port (not shown). The input port is a connection unit to which signals such as operation switches are input, and the output port is a connection unit that transmits signals to peripheral devices such as the motor 32.
In FIG. 1, an input peripheral device displays a signal from the peripheral device as an arrow directed to the main control board 60, and an output peripheral device is directed from the main control board 60 to the peripheral device. Shown with arrows.

The main control board 60 includes an RWM (main memory) 61, a ROM 62, a main CPU 63, and the like (not meant to include only those illustrated in FIG. 1).
The RWM (main memory) 61 is a storage medium capable of storing (updating) various data based on the progress of the game.
The ROM 62 is a storage medium that stores programs necessary for the progress of the game, various data (for example, a data table), and the like.
The main CPU 63 refers to a CPU provided on the main control board 60, and executes programs and calculations necessary for the progress of the game. Specifically, the lottery of the combination, the drive control of the reel 31, and the winning Execute paying out.

The medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 44 are configured to pass through the medal selector 45.
As shown in FIG. 1, the medal selector 45 includes a passage sensor 46, a blocker 47, and insertion sensors 48 a and 48 b (but not limited to these), and is electrically connected to the main control board 60. Yes.
When a medal is inserted from the medal slot 44, the passage sensor 46 first detects the medal.

  Further, a blocker 47 is provided on the downstream side of the passage sensor 46. The blocker 47 is provided in the medal passage, and is used to allow / disallow medal passage (insertion). When the medal insertion is not permitted, the blocker 47 is inserted from the medal insertion slot 44. A medal passage for returning medals from the payout opening is formed. On the other hand, when the medal insertion is permitted, a medal passage for guiding the medal inserted from the medal insertion port 44 to the hopper 35a is formed.

  Here, the blocker 47 does not allow the insertion of medals during the game (from the start of the rotation of the reels 31 until all the reels 31 are stopped and the payout corresponding to the winning combination is completed at the time of winning the winning combination). ) State. That is, the blocker 47 permits the insertion of medals at least when no game is being played.

  On the further downstream side of the blocker 47, input sensors 48a and 48b (optical sensors) are provided. Therefore, medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 44 are further detected by the insertion sensors 48a (upstream side) and 48b (downstream side) after being detected by the passage sensor 46.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the main control board 60 is electrically provided with a settlement switch 43, a bet switch 40, a start switch 41, and a (left, middle, right) stop switch 42 as operation switches operated by the player. It is connected to the.

The settlement switch 43 is a switch operated by the player when paying out (paying out) medals stored (credited) in the slot machine 10.
The bet switch 40 is a switch operated by the player when betting a stored medal for the game. In this embodiment, the bet switch 40 includes a 1-bet switch 40a for betting one piece (the minimum number in one game) and a 3-bet switch 40b for betting the maximum number of medals that can be bet in the game. Prepare.

Here, since the 3-bet switch 40b is a bet switch for betting the maximum number of bets that can be bet in the game, it is also referred to as a max bet switch. In the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, it is referred to as a 3-bet switch 40b.
However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a bet switch for two bets may be provided. Of the bet switches 40 for one, two, and three bets, two or three can be provided depending on the specifications of the slot machine 10.
In this embodiment, it is set to play a game by inserting three medals.

The start switch 41 is a switch operated by the player when starting the reels 31 (all of left, middle, and right).
Furthermore, three stop switches 42 are provided corresponding to the three (left, middle, and right) reels 31 and are operated by the player when the corresponding reels 31 are stopped.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a display substrate 70 is electrically connected to the main control substrate 60. In practice, a relay board is provided between the main control board 60 and the display board 70, and the main control board 60 and the relay board, and the relay board and the display board 70 are connected. In FIG. 1, the illustration of the relay board is omitted. Thus, the main control board 60 and the display board 70 may be directly connected by a harness or the like, but another board may be interposed between them.

A storage number display LED 71 and an acquisition number display LED 72 are connected to the display substrate 70.
The storage number display LED 71 is an LED that displays the number of stored medals, and is composed of two seven-segment displays (so-called 7-segment) in order to display two digits.
Further, the acquired number display LED 72 is an LED for displaying the number of payouts (player acquired number) when winning a winning combination. Like the stored number display LED 71, the acquired number display LED 72 includes two seven-segment displays.
The acquisition number display LED 72 normally displays the number of acquisitions, but functions as an LED that displays the content (type) of an error when an error occurs.

The main control board 60 is electrically connected to the motor 32 of the symbol display device 30 and the like.
The symbol display device 30 includes a reel 31 (three in this embodiment) that displays symbols, a motor 32 that drives each reel 31, and a reel sensor 39 that detects the position of the reel 31.

  The motor 32 is for rotating the reels 31, is connected to the center of rotation of each reel 31, and is controlled by a reel control means 63 c described later. Here, the reel 31 includes a left reel 31, a middle reel 31, and a right reel 31, and a stop switch 42 that is operated when the left reel 31 is stopped is the left stop switch 42, and when the middle reel 31 is stopped. The stop switch 42 to be operated is the middle stop switch 42, and the stop switch 42 to be operated when stopping the right reel 31 is the right stop switch 42.

The reel 31 is ring-shaped, and a reel tape on which a plurality of types of symbols (designs constituting a combination of symbols corresponding to the combination) is attached is attached to the outer peripheral surface thereof.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a symbol arrangement of the reels 31 in the first embodiment. In FIG. 2, symbol numbers are also shown. For example, in the left reel 31, the symbol of symbol number 20 is “blank C”.
In the symbols, “Blank A” to “Blank C” do not mean blanks, that is, blanks, and each has a unique symbol.

As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the symbol display area of each reel 31 is equally divided into 20 frames (symbols), and a predetermined symbol is displayed on each frame. Depending on the specifications of the slot machine 10, 21 frames may be used.
FIG. 3 is a view showing the display window (transparent window) 13 provided in the slot machine 10, the positional relationship between the reels 31, and the effective lines. FIG. 3 is common to all the embodiments.

  In this embodiment, three reels 31 (left reel 31, middle reel 31, and right reel 31) are provided in parallel in the horizontal direction in this embodiment. Further, each reel 31 is arranged so that three symbols that are continuous in the vertical direction can be seen from the display window 13. Therefore, the display windows 13 of the slot machine 10 are arranged so that a total of nine symbols can be seen. The numbers on the lower right of each symbol indicate the symbol number.

  In this specification, in FIG. 3, the symbols “watermelon (No. 13)” on the left reel 31, “cherry (No. 8)” on the middle reel 31, and “replay (No. 16)” on the right reel 31 are shown. The stopped position is referred to as “upper stage”, and the symbols of “bell (12)” on the left reel 31, “bell (7)” on the middle reel 31, and “bell (15)” on the right reel 31 are displayed. Is called “middle stage”, “replay (No. 11)” of the left reel 31, “replay (No. 6)” of the middle reel 31, and “blank A (No. 14)” of the right reel 31. The position where the symbol is stopped is referred to as “lower stage”.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, effective lines are set for nine symbols visible from the display window 13.
Here, the “effective line” is a symbol combination line that forms a symbol combination when the reel 31 is stopped, and a symbol combination corresponding to any of the combinations is the line. If the combination of symbols corresponding to any combination stops on that line, a profit is awarded according to the combination (medal payout, etc.) It is a line that performs. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, only the effective line (one line) in the middle in the horizontal direction is defined, and the other symbol combination lines are all invalid lines.

  For example, in FIG. 3, a symbol combination line passing through the upper stage of each reel 31 and a symbol combination line passing through the lower stage of the left reel 31, the middle stage of the middle reel 31, and the upper stage of the right reel 31 are also conceivable. This line is an invalid line in this embodiment. An invalid line is a line that is not set as a valid line among symbol combination lines, and even if a combination of symbols corresponding to any of the combinations stops on that line, a profit corresponding to the combination is given. This line does not perform (medal payout etc.). In other words, the invalid line is a line that is not a target of combination of symbols in the first place.

  Conventionally, there are known slot machines in which the number of effective lines differs depending on the number of medals bet. For example, when the number of medal bets is one, one effective line is set, when the number of medal bets is two, the number of effective lines is three, and when the number of medal bets is three, the number of effective lines is set to five. And so on. On the other hand, in the first embodiment, during a game, the player always bets three medals and plays a game, and in all the games, only one in the horizontal middle row is always the active line.

  Each reel 31 is provided with one (or two or more) index. The index is provided in a convex shape on, for example, the circumferential side surface of the reel 31 and is used when detecting whether the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position, whether it has rotated one time, or the like. Each index is detected by the reel sensor 39. The signal of the reel sensor 39 is electrically connected to the main control board 60. When the reel sensor 39 detects (cuts) the index, the input signal is input to the main control board 60, and it is detected that the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position.

Further, a symbol on the reference position at the moment when the reel sensor 39 detects the index of the reel 31 is stored in the ROM 62 in advance. Thereby, the symbol on the reference position at the moment when the index is detected can be detected.
The medal payout device 35 is electrically connected to the main control board 60. The medal payout device 35 is a hopper 35a for storing medals, a hopper motor 36 that is driven when paying out medals of the hopper 35a from the payout port, and a payout for detecting medals paid out from the hopper 35a. Sensors 37a and 37b are provided.

The medals that are maintained and received from the medal slot 44 are formed so as to be accommodated in the hopper 35a through a predetermined passage (also referred to as “chute portion”).
The payout sensors 37a and 37b are provided with a payout sensor 37a on the upstream side and a payout sensor 37b on the downstream side, similarly to the input sensors 48a and 48b.

  The payout sensors 37a and 37b are arranged at a predetermined distance, and are configured to be detected by the payout sensor 37b after a predetermined time has elapsed since the medal was detected by the payout sensor 37a. Then, based on the timing when the payout sensors 37a and 37b are turned on / off, it is determined whether or not the medals have been paid out correctly.

For example, when the signals of the payout sensors 37a and 37b are both off despite the hopper motor 36 being driven, it is determined that no medal has been paid out, and a hopper error (no medal) is detected. Is done.
On the other hand, when at least one of the signals from the payout sensor 37a or 37b remains on, it is detected that a medal jam has occurred.

  The full sensor 38 is a sensor that detects the fullness of the sub tank 35b (see FIG. 3) that stores medals overflowing from the hopper 35a, and is a circuit that is energized when the medals come into contact when the medals in the sub tank 35b become full. Consists of

The door switch 16 is a switch that is turned on when a front cover (not shown) of the slot machine 10 is opened, and detects the open / closed state of the front cover.
The power switch 51 is a switch for turning on / off the power of the slot machine 10.
The setting key switch 52 is a switch that is turned on when a setting key is inserted from the setting key insertion slot and is rotated 90 degrees to the right, and is turned on when the setting is confirmed or the setting is changed.

The setting change / reset switch 53 is a switch that serves as both a setting change switch and a reset switch with a single switch. Note that the setting change switch and the reset switch may be provided separately.
The setting change / reset switch 53 is operated when changing a setting value. When the power switch 51 is turned on while the setting key switch 52 is turned on, reset, that is, initialization processing is performed, and predetermined data stored in the RWM 61 and the RWM 81 is cleared.

  The setting door switch 54 is a switch that detects opening and closing of a setting door (a door that covers the setting key switch 52 and the setting change / reset switch 53) (not shown). For example, an error occurs when the setting door switch 54 is off, that is, when the setting key switch 52 is on while the setting door is not opened.

Next, a specific configuration of the main control board 60 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the main CPU 63 of the main control board 60 includes the following setting change means 63a and the like. Note that the following means in the present embodiment are examples, and are not limited to the means shown in the present embodiment.

The setting change means 63a is a means for changing and determining the set value.
Here, the set value defines the degree of player's advantage, more specifically, the expected value of the payout number with respect to the number of inserted medals (medals that can be acquired by the player), and is set in this embodiment. 1 to setting 6 stages are provided.
The higher the set value, the higher the advantage for the player, such as the higher the winning probability of at least some of the combinations.
Further, the higher the set value is, the higher the probability of shifting to ART, and the higher the advantage for the player is set.

  In addition, it is not restricted only to making the probability which transfers to ART high, For example, the probability of adding up the game frequency in AT and the number of payouts may be made high, and the probability of continuing ART may be made high.

In order to set / change the set value, a power switch 51, a setting key switch 52, and a setting change / reset switch 53 are used.
In this embodiment, when the power switch 51 is off and the power is turned off, the setting key switch 52 is turned on when a setting key is inserted into the setting key insertion slot and rotated 90 degrees clockwise. When the power switch 51 is turned on again in this state, the setting is being changed, that is, the setting changing mode is entered. In this case, normal startup processing is not performed. Therefore, in order to change the setting, the power switch 51 needs to be turned on / off. Further, by the above operation, resetting, that is, initialization processing is performed, and predetermined data (for example, setting value information, information related to ART winning) stored in the RWM 61 and the RWM 81 are deleted.

In the setting change mode, the setting changing means 63a displays the current setting value on the setting value display LED 64.
The setting change means 63a displays the set value every time the setting change / reset switch 53 is operated (turned on) once... → “1” → “2” → “3” → “4” “→” 5 ”→“ 6 ”→“ 1 ”→“ 2 ”→...

Further, when the start switch 41 is turned on, the setting change means 63a determines the setting value with the numerical value displayed on the setting value display LED 64 at this time, and “0” indicating that the setting value has been determined. Is displayed on the set value display LED 64.
Then, the setting changing unit 63a rotates the setting key 90 degrees counterclockwise to turn off the setting key switch 52, thereby storing the determined setting value in a predetermined storage area in the RWM 61. It becomes possible to play with the set value.

  Furthermore, in the state where no medals are bet and the part lottery is not performed (before the start switch 41 is operated), the setting key is inserted into the setting key insertion slot, and the setting key switch 52 is turned on. Then, “Setting confirmation is in progress”. That is, when only the set value is confirmed, it is not necessary to turn on / off the power switch 51. During the setting confirmation, the setting value at the present time is displayed on the setting display LED 64 as in the case of the setting change.

The role lottery means 63b performs lottery for each game at the start of the game.
Here, the combination of the combination of the present embodiment and its design, etc. will be described.
4 to 8 are diagrams showing types of combinations, symbol combinations, and payouts in the present embodiment. For example, in FIG. 4, for the role of “Replay 05”, there are two combinations of symbols: “Bell” — “Blank C” — “Blank C” and “Blank C” — “Bell” — “Blank C”. (In the case of having a combination of a plurality of symbols in other roles, it has the same meaning).

The roles of this embodiment are roughly classified into special roles, replays, and small roles.
A combination of symbols corresponding to each combination and a payout at the time of winning (the number of payouts, etc.) are determined. When all the reels 31 are stopped, when the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the combinations stops on the active line (the combination wins, the same applies hereinafter), the number of medals corresponding to the combination is paid out.

  In addition, in the “Rules for Game Machine Approval and Type Approval”, when a combination of symbols corresponding to a replay is stopped on the active line, a game to be performed without giving a medal or the like is given. It is interpreted that it is not “winning (displaying a combination of symbols for obtaining medals etc.)”. However, in the present application (this specification, etc.), replay is also treated as one of the roles (replaying role) and the combination of symbols corresponding to the replay is stopped on the active line is referred to as “replay winning”. .

  First, the special role is a role that shifts to a special game. In the present embodiment, MB (middle bonus, also referred to as second type big bonus (2BB)) and SB (single bonus) are provided as special roles. Other special roles include 1BB (first type big bonus), RB (regular bonus), and the like, which are not provided in this embodiment.

When the MB wins, there is no payout of medals in the game, but the next game shifts to the MB game corresponding to the special game.
Similarly, when the SB wins, no medal is paid out in the game, but the next game shifts to the SB game corresponding to the special game.
In the first embodiment, the SB has three types (SB01 to SB03) as shown in FIG.

In addition, the replay (re-playing combination) is a combination that enables a re-play that maintains the number of medals inserted in the game (automatic bets on medals).
The replay of this embodiment includes replay 01 to replay 19.
Furthermore, the small combination includes a small combination 01 to a small combination 38 as shown in FIGS.
For the small combination 01, the payout at the time of winning (medal payout number) is set to 9, the small combination 34 is set to 14, and the small combination 35 is set to 13. For all other small combinations, the dividend is one.

  In addition, for the small roles 34 to 36, the symbol of the right reel 31 is set to “ANY”, that is, an arbitrary symbol. Although details will be described later, in the present embodiment, during the MB game, the right reel 31 is controlled to stop within 75 ms, and when the small role is won during the MB game, the small roles 34 to 36 are won and the right reel 31 is awarded. Is to stop a predetermined symbol.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the number of symbols for each reel 31 of the small combination 01 to the small combination 38. In FIG. 5 to FIG. 8, the number of combinations of all symbols of the small combination 01 to the small combination 38 is 159. FIG. 9 shows the total number of symbols of the left, middle, and right reels 31 for each symbol combination. For example, for the “red 7” symbol, the number of the left reel 31 is “15”. This is because the symbol of the left reel 31 is “red 7” among all the combinations (159) of the small symbols 01 to 38. "Means that there are 15 symbol combinations set in the symbol.

In each of the above-mentioned combinations, when the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination does not stop on the active line in the game won for the combination, a combination that is carried over to the next game and a combination that is not carried over are determined.
The role carried over is the special role MB. When an MB is won, the game is controlled so that the MB win is carried over to the next game in the game until the MB wins.

  On the other hand, while winning of MB is carried over, SB, small role and replay which are special roles other than MB are not carried over. In the lottery of a combination, when winning an SB, a small combination or a replay, the winning combination is effective only in the game, and the winning is not carried over to the next game. That is, in the game won for these winning combinations, the reel 31 is controlled to stop so that a combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination can be won. , The right (that is, information) related to the winning role will disappear.

A game in which a special role is not won (a game in which a special role is not carried over) is referred to as “non-inside”. A game in which a special role is won in a game before the game but the selected special role is not won (a game in which the special role is carried over) is called “inside”.
However, in this embodiment, the combination of MB symbols is set to “Replay”-“Bell”-“Replay” as shown in FIG. 4, and is set so that the game won in the MB is always won. Has been. For this reason, in this embodiment, there is no case where MB winning is carried over after the next game.

Returning to FIG.
The role lottery means 63b includes, for example, a random number generation means for hardware lottery (a hardware random number, a random number generation circuit provided in the main CPU 63, etc.), and a random number extraction means for extracting a random number generated by the random number generation means. And determining means for determining the presence / absence of a winning combination and the winning combination based on the random value extracted by the random number extracting means.

  The random number generation means generates random numbers in a predetermined area (for example, 0 to 65535 in decimal notation). For example, the main counter is a random number (hardware random number) or a predetermined random numerical order (numerical sequence) in which a counter that performs one count at 200 n (nano) sec continues counting as a cycle in the range of 0 to 65535. It is a random number (built-in random number) that is updated every clock cycle input to the CPU 63, and continues to count the random number while the slot machine 10 is powered on.

  The random number extraction means extracts the random number generated by the random number generation means at a predetermined time, in the present embodiment, when the start switch 41 is operated (turned on) by the player. The judging means collates the random number value extracted by the random number extracting means with the role lottery table, thereby determining the combination corresponding to the area to which the random number value belongs. For example, if the extracted random number value belongs to the MB winning area, it is determined as MB winning, and if it belongs to the non-winning area, it is determined as non-winning. The extracted random number may be processed by calculation and collated with the role lottery table.

  The combination lottery table defines the types of combinations to be selected and the winning probability of each combination. The role lottery table is provided for each gaming state, and each has a predetermined range of lottery areas.This lottery area is divided into a winning area and a non-winning area for each role, and It is set to a predetermined ratio so as to have a winning probability set in advance.

FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 are diagrams showing the types and contents of winning combinations that are selected by the combination lottery means 63b. In the present embodiment, “01” to “59” are provided as the winning numbers. These winning numbers “01” to “59” are also referred to as “condition devices”.
Winning numbers “01”, “04”, “05”, and “57” are respectively awarded by MB, replay 01, replay 03, and small role 33 alone. The winning number “03” corresponds to non-winning.

  For other winning numbers, two or more types of winning combinations will be won. For example, in the replay C1 with the winning number “06”, the replay 02 and the replay 03 indicate that they are won in duplicate. In the present embodiment, replay is won only for replay, and there is no case where replay and small roles are won for overlap. The small combination has a case where the small combination is won in combination with the SB in addition to the case where the small combination is won. As described above, there is nothing that includes replay in the double winning combination of small roles.

The winning numbers “04” to “38” are provided as replay single wins or duplicate wins. In addition, winning numbers “39” to “59” are provided as single or duplicate winning combinations.
Further, for the small roles A01 to A12 having the winning numbers “39” to “50”, any one SB, the small role 01, and the other three types of small roles are won simultaneously.
Furthermore, for the small combinations B01 to B06 with the winning numbers “51” to “56”, the small combination 26 and the other one or two small combinations are won in duplicate.
In each of the above condition devices, the order of pressing the stop switch 42 and the relationship with the winning combination are determined in advance, which will be described later.

12 and 13 are diagrams showing the winning probabilities for the gaming states of the winning numbers “01” to “59” described above. In other words, FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 show a role lottery table for each gaming state.
In FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, “numerical value” is a value indicating a winning range out of the entire range “65536” taken by the random number value. Therefore, “winning probability = numerical value / 65536”. For example, in a gaming state such as RT1, since the MB number is “3800”, the MB winning probability is “3800/65536” = “about 1/17”.

  Further, as the “gaming state” of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, there are non-RT, RT1 to RT7, and SB games. In addition to these game states, MB games are provided. The MB game is executed by winning an MB in any RT state, and even if the MB wins, the RT is not changed and the MB game is continued until a predetermined condition is satisfied. When it is determined that the MB game end condition is satisfied, the MB game is ended and the game is started from the same RT game state as before the MB winning.

  As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the replay winning is set to be different for each gaming state. For example, replay A is selected in advance during non-RT, replay B is set only in RT1, replay C1 to C6 is only RT2, and so on. .

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 13, the small roles A01 to A12 are drawn in all gaming states. Further, the small roles B01 to B06 are drawn in a gaming state excluding the SB game.
In particular, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, the winning probabilities of the small roles A01 to A12 are set higher than the winning probabilities of the small roles B01 to B06. This point will be described later.
Further, the small roles C to E are positioned as rare roles.

  In FIG. 1, the main CPU 63 controls on / off of a winning flag corresponding to each combination based on the combination lottery result by the combination lottery means 63b. In this embodiment, a winning flag (a part of the storage area of the RWM 61) is provided for each combination for each combination. When any of the winning combinations is selected by the winning lottery means 63b, the winning flag for the winning combination corresponding to the winning is turned on (the winning flag is set).

  For example, when the replay C6 is won, as shown in FIG. 10, a total of four winning flags of Replay 02, Replay 04, Replay 06, and Replay 07 are turned on, and the winning flags of the other roles are turned off. .

  Furthermore, as described above, the MB winning is carried over after the next game when no winning is made. However, in this embodiment, when the MB is won, the winning is always carried over in the game (the next game is also carried over). The winning flag relating to the winning combination in the previous game is not turned on). Therefore, in the present embodiment, there is no combination in which the winning is carried over to the next game.

  In FIG. 1, the reel control means 63c starts to rotate all (three) reels 31 when a rotation start command for the reels 31 is received, particularly when the start switch 41 is operated in this embodiment. To control. Further, the reel control means 63c selects a stop position determination table corresponding to ON / OFF of the winning flag with reference to ON / OFF of the winning flag in the game after the winning lottery is performed by the winning lottery means 63b. In addition, when the stop switch 42 is operated, the stop position of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 is determined and the motor 32 is driven and controlled based on the timing when the stop switch 42 is operated. Thus, the reel 31 is controlled to stop at the determined position.

  For example, in a game in which at least one winning flag is turned on, the reel control means 63c selects a combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination (the combination with the winning flag turned on) within the range of the stop control of the reel 31. The reel 31 is stopped and controlled so as to be able to stop on the active line, and the reel 31 is stopped and controlled so as not to stop the combination of symbols corresponding to a combination other than the winning combination (the combination whose winning flag is off) on the effective line. .

Here, “within the range of stop control of the reel 31” means the time from the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 actually stops or the amount of rotation of the reel 31 (the number of moving frames (symbols)). Means within range.
In this embodiment, the reel 31 is rotated at a speed of about 80 rotations per minute at a constant speed.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, the time from when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 is stopped is set within 190 ms. Thereby, in the present embodiment, the maximum number of moving frames from the symbol at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops is set to four frames.

  For example, in FIG. 2, when the left stop switch 42 is operated immediately before the 01 “replay” passes through the middle stage (active line) when the left reel 31 is stopped, this 01 “replay” (bitain) Stop), or No. 02 “Bell” (1 Coma), No. 03 “Cherry” (2 Coma), 04 “Red 7” (3 Coma), 05 “Blank C” (4 Coma) Either can stop at the middle stage (on the active line).

In the present embodiment, all but the right reel 31 in the MB game is stopped within 190 ms (up to 4 frames) as described above.
On the other hand, in the right reel 31 during the MB game, the time from when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 is stopped is set within 75 ms. Thus, in the present embodiment, the right reel 31 in the MB game is set to have a maximum number of moving frames from the symbol at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops.

  For example, in FIG. 2, when the right stop switch 42 is operated just before the 01 “replay” passes through the middle stage (active line) when the right reel 31 is stopped, this 01 “replay” (bitain) Either “stop”) or “blank C” of No. 02 (single frame) can be stopped at the middle stage (on the effective line).

  At the moment when the operation of the stop switch 42 is detected, when any of the symbols within the range of the stop control of the reel 31 is a symbol to be stopped at a predetermined effective line, when the stop switch 42 is operated In addition, the design is controlled to stop at a predetermined effective line.

  That is, if the reel 31 is stopped immediately at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated at the time of winning the winning combination, when the symbol related to the winning winning combination does not stop at a predetermined effective line, the reel 31 is stopped before stopping. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, the symbol related to the winning combination is controlled so as to be stopped on a predetermined effective line as much as possible (retraction stop control).

  Conversely, if the reel 31 is stopped immediately at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, if the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped on the effective line, the reel 31 is stopped when the reel 31 is stopped. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range of 31 stop control, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination is controlled so as not to stop on the effective line (kicking stop control).

Furthermore, in a game in which a combination of a plurality of types of symbols can be stopped on the active line, the priority of the combination of symbols to be stopped on the active line is determined in advance, and the drawing priority control for the highest priority symbol is controlled according to a predetermined priority. I do.
In this embodiment, in a game in which a combination of a plurality of types of replays can be stopped, a combination of replays that can be stopped on the active line is determined according to the order in which the stop switch 42 is pressed.
In the present embodiment, in a game in which a combination of symbols of a plurality of types of small roles can be stopped, which combination of symbols is prioritized and stopped in this embodiment, in addition to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 And number priority.

“Piece priority” means that the combination of symbols with the largest number of payouts is given priority and stopped on the active line among the combinations of symbols for the winning combination. Is controlled so as to be pulled into the effective line with priority.
For example, in FIG. 7, assuming that a small combination 34 and a small combination 35 have been won, the combination of symbols with a large number of payouts is “blank C” − “blank C” − “ANY” related to the small combination 34. is there. For this reason, when the left reel 31 is first stopped, for example, when priority is given to the number of reels, “blank” or “cherry” that is a symbol related to the small role 35 is given priority over “blank” that is a symbol related to the small role 34 Priority is given to stopping "C" in an active line.

On the other hand, “number priority” means the number of small symbol combinations that can be stopped on the active line when the symbol is stopped on the active line among the combinations of small characters that can be stopped on the active line. Is to stop control so that the symbols constituting the symbol combination are preferentially drawn into the effective line so that the maximum number is obtained.
For example, in FIG. 7, assuming that a small combination 34 and a small combination 35 have been elected, the combination of small combinations that can be stopped on the active line is:
"Blank C"-"Blank C"-"ANY" (small part 34)
"Watermelon"-"Watermelon"-"ANY" (Small 35)
"Watermelon"-"Cherry"-"ANY" (35)
"Cherry"-"Watermelon"-"ANY" (35)
"Cherry"-"Cherry"-"ANY" (small role 35)
There are five types.

  For example, when the left reel 31 is first stopped, when “blank C” is stopped on the active line, the number of symbols that can be stopped on the active line is one at that time. On the other hand, when “watermelon” is stopped on the active line, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped on the active line at that time is two. Similarly, in the case of “cherry”, the number is two.

  Therefore, in the number priority, when the left reel 31 is first stopped, either “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the effective line in preference to “blank C”. As in the above example, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped on the active line for both “Watermelon” and “Cherry” is the same for two, so there is no superiority or inferiority for both. May be. In such a case, it may be determined in advance. Further, when any of the symbols can be stopped within the range of the maximum number of moving symbols of the symbol, the symbol that can be stopped is stopped.

  The concept of the number priority and the number priority is used for a small combination with a medal payout at the time of winning a prize, and is not applied even when a combination of a plurality of symbols can be stopped at the time of replay winning without a medal payout.

In the stop control of the reel 31, if the stop switch 42 is not operated at an appropriate position of the reel 31 (at an operation timing at which the target symbol can be stopped within the range of the maximum number of moving frames), the target symbol is stopped on the effective line. Inability to (draw to the effective line) is referred to as “PB (pull-in rate) ≠ 1”.
On the other hand, regardless of the position of the reel 31 at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated (regardless of the operation timing of the stop switch 42), the target symbol can always be stopped (drawn) on the effective line. , Referred to as “PB = 1”.

“PB = 1” indicates that in the combination of symbols of the role, all the reels 31 are in such a case, and only in a specific (partial) reel 31. Have.
As described above, in the first embodiment, since the maximum number of moving frames is “4”, when the target symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, “PB = 1”, which exceeds 5 symbols. “PB ≠ 1” when they are arranged at intervals.

  For example, in the left reel 31 of FIG. 2, “PB ≠ 1” is arranged for “watermelon” alone, and “PB ≠ 1” is arranged for “cherry” alone. However, either “Cherry” or “Watermelon” is arranged at intervals of 5 frames (03, 08, 13, and 18). Therefore, no matter what timing the left stop switch 42 is operated, “cherry” or “watermelon” can be stopped on the active line (middle stage) within the range of the maximum number of moving frames (4 frames).

Therefore, as in the above example, when the small combination 34 and the small combination 35 are selected and the number priority control is performed, the “cherry” or “watermelon” can always be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Therefore, the number priority control can be performed with “PB = 1”.
In the following description, when the target symbols are arranged at intervals within 5 symbols is referred to as “PB = 1” arrangement, and at intervals exceeding 5 symbols is referred to as “PB ≠ 1” arrangement. Called.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the “PB = 1” arrangement (5-frame interval) is as follows.
(1) In all the reels 31, “bell”, “replay”, and “blank C” are all arranged in “PB = 1”.
(2) “PB = 1” is arranged on all reels 31 by adding “Cherry” or “Watermelon”.
(3) In all reels 31, “PB = 1” is arranged by adding “Red 7”, “White 7”, “Blank A”, or “Blank B”.

Further, the reel control means 63c detects the pressing order (operation order) of the stop switch 42.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, a signal indicating that the stop switch 42 has been operated is input to the reel control means 63c. By discriminating this signal, it is detected which stop switch 42 has been operated.

  The stop position determination table is provided for each on / off state of the winning flag, that is, for each lottery result of the combination by the combination lottery means 63b, and for the position of the reel 31 at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated. The stop position of the reel 31 is determined. In each stop position determination table, for example, when the stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the symbol 01 (“replay” in the case of the left reel 31) passes through the middle stage (effective line), movement control ( The stop position is determined in advance so that the number of symbols is stopped in the middle stage.

The stop position determination table includes the following.
The MB table is used when only the MB winning flag is turned on, that is, when the MB is won in the game, and within the range of the reel 31 stop control, the combination of symbols corresponding to the MB is stopped on the active line. In addition, the combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is determined so that combinations of symbols corresponding to roles other than MB are not stopped on the effective line.

  In the present embodiment, the combination of MB symbols is “replay”-“bell”-“replay” as shown in FIG. In each reel 31, the symbols corresponding to the reel 31 are all arranged at PB = 1 (interval within 5 symbols). Therefore, when winning MB, MB wins with “PB = 1”.

The replay A table is used when the replay A is won, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the replay 01 is won and a combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is selected so that a role other than the replay 01 is not won. It is determined.
Here, as shown in FIG. 4, the symbol combination of the replay 01 is “replay”-“replay”-“bell”. In each reel 31, the symbol corresponding to the reel 31 is PB. = 1 (interval within 5 symbols). Therefore, when Replay A is won, Replay 01 wins with “PB = 1”.

The replay B table is used when the replay B is won, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, the replay 03 is awarded and the combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is selected so that no role other than the replay 03 is won. It is determined.
Here, as shown in FIG. 4, four types of symbol combinations of the replay 03 are provided, the symbol of the left reel 31 is “bell”, and the symbols of the middle and right reels 31 are “watermelon” or “cherry”, respectively. . The “bell” of the left reel 31 has an arrangement of “PB = 1”. In the middle and right reels 31, “watermelon” or “cherry” has an interval of 5 symbols, that is, “PB = 1”. Thereby, at the time of Replay B winning, any one of the symbol combinations of Replay 03 can always be stopped on the active line.

  The replay C1 table is used when the replay C1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, control is performed so that the replay 02 is awarded when the correct answer is pressed and the replay 03 is awarded when the correct answer is incorrect. Similarly, for the replay C2 table to the replay C6 table, the replay 02 is awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and the replay 03 or 04 is awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order.

In replays C1 to C6, replays 06 and 07 are provided as control roles (for providing a plurality of condition devices), and are not actually used for winning a prize.
As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when replay C1 is won, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is determined as the first correct answer to the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 02 is awarded, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect pressing order), the replay 03 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time in the replay C1 winning (in order of correct answer pressing), “blank C” is stopped on the active line. In the left reel 31, “blank C” has a “PB = 1” arrangement. When the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. In the middle and right reels 31, either “watermelon” or “cherry” has a “PB = 1” arrangement. As described above, the replay 02 can always be awarded at the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, when the middle or right first stop is performed, when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line in the same manner as in the correct pressing order. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped at the effective line. The “bell” of the left reel 31 has a “PB = 1” arrangement. As described above, the replay 03 can always be awarded at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay C2 table to the replay C6 table.
For example, at the time of replay C3 winning, at the time of the middle first stop (push order correct answer), the same reel stop control as that at the time of replay 02 winning is performed. On the other hand, when the left and right reels 31 are stopped at the first left or right stop (push order incorrect answer), “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped on the effective line. As shown in FIG. 2, the “bell” of the middle reel 31 has a “PB = 1” arrangement. Therefore, the replay 04 can always be won when the pressing order is incorrect.

The replay D1 table is used when the replay D1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, control is performed so that the replay 05 is won when the correct answer is pressed and the replay 06 or 07 is awarded when the correct answer is incorrect. The same applies to the replay D2 table to the replay D6 table.
In the replays D1 to D6, the replays 09 and 10 are provided as control roles, and are not roles that are actually won.

  As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when the replay D1 is won, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is set to the first correct answer on the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 05 is won, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect answer pressing order), the replay 06 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time during the replay D1 winning (in the correct answer order), “blank C” is stopped on the active line. In the left reel 31, “blank C” has a “PB = 1” arrangement. When the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped on the active line. Further, “blank C” is stopped on the effective line of the right reel 31. As shown in FIG. 2, the “blank C” of the right reel 31 has a “PB = 1” arrangement. As described above, the replay 05 can always be awarded at the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, when the middle or right first stop is performed, the symbol when the left and right reels 31 are stopped is “blank C” as in the correct answer pressing order, and “watermelon” or “cherry” is displayed when the middle reel 31 is stopped. Stop. As described above, the replay 06 can always be won at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay D2 table to the replay D6 table.
For example, at the time of replay D4 winning, at the time of the middle first stop (push order correct answer), the same reel stop control as that at the time of replay 05 winning is performed. On the other hand, at the time of the left or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, the “blank C” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Therefore, replay 07 can always be awarded when the pressing order is incorrect.

  The replay E1 table is used when the replay E1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, control is performed so that replay 08 is awarded when the correct answer is pressed and replay 09 or 10 is awarded when the push order is incorrect. The same applies to the replay E2 table to the replay E6 table.

In addition, when the replays E1 to E6 are won, the replays 12 and 13 are provided as control roles, and are not roles that are actually won.
As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when the replay E1 is won, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is set to the first correct answer on the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 08 is awarded, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect pressing order), the replay 09 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time in the replay E1 winning (when the correct answer is pressed), the “bell” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “blank C” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, “replay” is stopped on the active line. As described above, the replay 08 can always be awarded at the time of the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, in the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, and “replay” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped. As described above, the replay 09 can always be won in the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay E2 table to the replay E6 table.
For example, when replay E5 is won, the same reel stop control as in the above replay 08 winning is performed at the first right stop (push order correct answer). On the other hand, at the time of the left or middle first stop (incorrect push order answer), when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, “blank C” and “replay” are set to the effective lines, respectively, as in the correct push order. Stop. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Therefore, the replay 10 can always be won when the pressing order is incorrect.

The replay F1 table is used when the replay F1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, the control is performed so that the replay 11 is awarded when the correct answer is pressed and the replay 12 or 13 is awarded when the correct answer is incorrect. The same applies to the replay F2 table and the replay F3 table.
In the replays F1 to F3, the replays 15 and 16 are provided as control roles, and are not roles that are actually won.

  As shown in FIG. 10, when the replay F1 is won, for example, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is set to the first correct answer on the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 11 is awarded, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect pressing order), the replay 12 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time in the replay F1 winning (when the correct answer is pressed), “blank C” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped on the effective line. Further, the “replay” is stopped at the effective line for the right reel 31. As described above, the replay 11 can always be awarded at the time of the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, “bell” and “replay” are stopped at the effective line, respectively, as in the correct answer push order. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped. As described above, the replay 12 can always be awarded at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay F2 table and the replay F3 table.
For example, when the replay F2 is won, the same reel stop control as that for the replay 11 winning is performed during the middle first stop (push order correct answer). On the other hand, when the left or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), when the left and right reels 31 are stopped, “blank C” and “replay” are set to the effective lines, respectively, as in the correct push order. Stop. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Therefore, the replay 13 can always be awarded when the pressing order is incorrect.

  The replay G1 table is used when the replay G1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, the control is performed so that the replay 14 is awarded when the correct answer is pressed and the replay 15 or 16 is awarded when the answer is incorrect. The same applies to the replay G2 table to the replay G6 table.

Further, in the replays G1 to G6, the replays 18 and 19 are provided as control roles, and are not roles that are actually won.
As shown in FIG. 10, when the replay G1 is won, for example, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is set to the first correct answer on the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 14 is awarded, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect pressing order), the replay 15 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time in the replay G1 winning (when the correct answer is pressed), the “replay” is stopped on the active line. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped on the effective line. Further, the right reel 31 stops the “bell” on the effective line. As described above, the replay 14 can always be awarded at the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, the “bell” is stopped at the effective line in the same manner as the correct answer push order. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped. As described above, the replay 15 can always be awarded at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay G2 table to the replay G6 table.
For example, at the time of replay G6 winning, at the time of the first right stop (push order correct answer), the same reel stop control as in the above replay 14 winning is performed. On the other hand, at the left or middle first stop (incorrect push order), when the left and right reels 31 are stopped, “Replay” and “Bell” are stopped at the active line, respectively, as in the correct push order. Let Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Therefore, the replay 16 can always be won when the pressing order is incorrect.

The replay H1 table is used when the replay H1 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay included in the winning combination is stopped on the active line according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, control is performed so that the replay 17 is awarded when the correct answer is pressed and the replay 18 or 19 is awarded when the answer is incorrect. The same applies to the replay H2 table to the replay H6 table.
Further, in the replays H1 to H6, the replays 03 and 04 are provided as control roles, and are not roles that are actually won.

  As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when the replay H1 is won, the correct answer pressing order of the stop switch 42 is set to the first correct answer on the left, and when the stop switch 42 is operated in this correct answer pressing order, the replay 17 is awarded, Alternatively, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the first right stop (incorrect pressing order), the replay 18 is controlled to win.

  More specifically, when the left stop switch 42 is operated for the first time (when the correct answer is pressed) when the replay H1 is won, “replay” is stopped on the active line. Also, when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, “replay” is stopped on the active line. As described above, the replay 17 can always be awarded at the time of the first left stop (push order correct answer).

  On the other hand, at the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer), the symbols when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped are both “replayed” as in the correct answer push order, and when the left reel 31 is stopped. Stop "Watermelon" or "Cherry". As described above, the replay 18 can always be awarded in the middle or right first stop (push order incorrect answer).

The same applies to the replay H2 table to the replay H6 table.
For example, at the time of replay H3 winning, the same reel stop control as that at the time of winning the replay 17 is performed during the middle first stop (push order correct answer). On the other hand, at the time of the first left or right stop (push order incorrect answer), when the left and right reels 31 are stopped, “Replay” is stopped at the active line as in the correct push order. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped on the active line. Therefore, the replay 19 can always be awarded when the pressing order is incorrect.

  The small role A01 table is used when the small role A01 is won (when the winning flags of the small role 01, the small role 01, the small role 02, the small role 18 and the small role 24 are turned on), and the range of the stop control of the reel 31 The combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped so that the selected SB01 or small role 01, 02, 18 or 24 is won (becomes winning) according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing. Is defined.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a combination of a small combination, a symbol, and a payout when winning a small combination A01. As shown in FIG. 14, when a small combination A01 is won, a combination of eleven types of symbols shown in FIG. 14 can be won as a small combination. Furthermore, SB01 can be awarded. When winning the small role A01, there are a correct answer pressing order and an incorrect answer pressing order, the correct answer pressing order is left middle right, and the other five pressing orders are incorrect answer pressing orders. In the correct pressing order, the small role 01 can be won by the above-mentioned number priority, and in the incorrect answer pressing order, the small role 02, the small role 18 or the small role 24 can be won by the above-mentioned number priority. Further, depending on the operation timing of the stop switch 42, SB01 can be awarded.

In the small role A01 table, at the time of the first stop at the left (at the time of pushing correct answer), the “bell” is stopped on the active line.
In addition, at the time of the middle first stop (at the time of incorrect push order), as shown in FIG. 14, when “Replay” is stopped, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped becomes the maximum number (4). , “Replay” is stopped with priority on number.

Furthermore, at the time of the right first stop (when pressing order is incorrect), as shown in FIG. 14, when “Replay” is stopped, the maximum number of combinations of symbols (4) that can be stopped is reached. Therefore, the “replay” is stopped with priority on the number.
From the above, when winning the small role A01, by the first stop,
"Bell"-"Rotating"-"Rotating"
"Rotating"-"Replay"-"Rotating"
"Rotating"-"Rotating"-"Replay"
Either.

(1) First left stop: "Bell"-"Rotating"-"Rotating"
At the next second stop, the correct answer is pushed at the middle second stop. Therefore, in this case, since the small role 01 is won with priority on the number of sheets, the “bell” is stopped on the active line for the middle reel. Furthermore, the “bell” is stopped at the active line at the third stop on the right. As a result, the small role 01 wins and nine medals are paid out.

  In addition, when pressing the second right stop, the push order is incorrect. Therefore, in this case, the number priority is not performed and the number priority is switched. As shown in FIG. 14, when “blank C” is stopped at the second right stop, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped at that time is the maximum number (two). Since the “blank C” in the right reel 31 has the “PB = 1” arrangement, it can always stop at the active line.

At the middle third stop, first, when “Red 7” or “White 7” can be stopped, “Red 7” or “White 7” is stopped on the active line, and the small role 02 is won. Let As a result, one medal is paid out.
Here, as shown in FIG. 2, “Red 7” is arranged only in No. 04 and “White 7” is arranged only in No. 09. Therefore, “red 7” or “white 7” of the middle reel 31 has the “PB ≠ 1” arrangement and cannot always be stopped.
Next, when “red 7” or “white 7” cannot be stopped on the active line during the middle third stop, “bell” is stopped on the active line as the second priority. As a result, the stop type becomes “bell”-“bell”-“blank C”, and SB01 wins.

(2) Middle first stop: “Rotating”-“Replay”-“Rotating”
When “Replay” is stopped during the middle first stop, the combinations of symbols that can be awarded are limited to the combinations of the four symbols of the small part 18 as shown in FIG.
When the left reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A”, and “blank B” is stopped. These four symbols are arranged at intervals of five symbols, and the total is “PB = 1”. Therefore, any of the symbols can always be stopped on the effective line.

  Next, at the time of the third stop on the right, if the “watermelon” can be stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. If the “watermelon” can be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, the small role 18 is won and one medal is paid out. If the “watermelon” cannot be stopped at the third stop on the right, the combination of symbols not corresponding to any combination is stopped. For example, “replay” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped.

(3) Right first stop: "Rotating"-"Rotating"-"Replay"
When “Replay” is stopped at the first stop on the right, the combinations of symbols that can be awarded are limited to the combination of four symbols of the small role 24 as shown in FIG.
When the left reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped when the “watermelon” can be stopped. Since the “watermelon” of the left reel 31 has the “PB ≠ 1” arrangement, it cannot be stopped at all times, resulting in missing.

Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A”, and “blank B” is stopped. These four symbols are arranged at intervals of five symbols, and the total is “PB = 1”. Therefore, any of the symbols can always be stopped on the effective line.
As described above, if the “watermelon” cannot be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped, a combination of symbols that do not correspond to any combination is stopped, for example, “replay” is stopped. Can be mentioned.

I will explain another example when winning a small role A.
FIG. 15 is a diagram showing combinations of symbols and combinations that can be awarded when winning the small role A05. As shown in FIG. 11, the correct pressing order when winning the small role A05 is middle left and right.
Therefore, at the time of the middle first stop (at the time of correct push order), the “bell” is stopped with priority on the number of sheets. On the other hand, at the time of the first left stop (incorrect push order), “replay” is stopped with priority on the number. Further, at the time of first right stop (incorrect push order answer), “replay” is stopped with priority on the number.

When the “bell” is stopped at the middle first stop, when the second stop is to the left, the correct answer is the pressing order. Therefore, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped with priority given to the number of sheets. Furthermore, the “bell” is stopped at the third stop on the right. As a result, the small role 01 wins.
When the “bell” is stopped at the middle first stop, when the second stop is on the right, the push order is incorrect, so the number priority is switched. Thereby, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “blank C” is stopped (arrangement of “PB = 1”). Further, when “Red 7” or “White 7” can be stopped as the first priority at the time of the third stop on the left, any of these symbols is stopped. If “Red 7” or “White 7” stops, the small role 06 is won.
If “red 7” or “white 7” cannot be stopped at the third stop on the left, “bell” is stopped as the second priority. As a result, SB01 wins.

When “replay” is stopped at the time of the first left stop, any of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” or “blank B” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped (“PB = 1 ”arrangement). Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” is stopped (arrangement of “PB ≠ 1”). As a result, there are cases where the small combination 14 wins and the combination is missed.
In addition, when “replay” is stopped at the right first stop, any of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” or “blank B” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped ( “PB = 1” arrangement). Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” is stopped (arrangement of “PB ≠ 1”). Thereby, there is a case where the small combination 22 wins a prize and a case where the combination is missed.
Similarly to the above, when winning the other small role A, the small role 01 is won at the correct answer in the pushing order, and the winning role other than the small role 01 is won at the wrong answer in the pushing order or the role is lost.

  The small role B01 table is used when the small role B01 is won (when the winning flags of the small role 26, the small role 27, and the small role 28 are turned on), and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the stop switch 42 is used. The combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is determined so that the selected small combination 26, small combination 27, or small combination 28 is awarded (becomes possible) according to the pressing order and operation timing. is there.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a combination of a small combination, a symbol, and a payout when winning a small combination B01. As shown in FIG. 16, when the small combination B01 is won, the combination of 24 types of symbols shown in FIG. 16 can be stopped on the active line as the small combination.
In addition, when the small combination B01 is won, the payout of the small combination that can be won is one. Accordingly, there is no number priority and number priority as in the case of winning the small role A, and it is arbitrary which symbol combination is stopped.
In the present embodiment, when the small role B01 is won, as shown in FIG. 11, the incorrect answer pressing order is determined to be the first left stop, and the correct answer pressing order is determined to be the middle or right first stop. Then, the small combination 27 or 28 can be won when the push order is incorrect (first left stop), and the small combination 26 is controlled so as to be able to win the correct push order (middle or first right stop).

At the time of winning the small role B01, at the time of the middle first stop (push order correct answer), one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” or “blank B” is stopped on the active line (“PB = 1 ”arrangement).
For the left reel 31 after the middle first stop, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” or “blank B” is stopped on the active line (arrangement of “PB = 1”).
Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped after the middle first stop, the “replay” is stopped on the active line. Thereby, the small part 26 always wins.

At the time of winning the small role B01, “Replay” is stopped at the active line when the right first stop (push order correct answer).
For the left reel 31 after the first right stop, any one of “Red 7”, “White 7”, “Blank A” or “Blank B” is stopped on the active line.
Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped after the first right stop, any one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A”, and “blank B” is stopped on the active line. Thereby, the small part 26 always wins.

On the other hand, when winning the small role B01, when the first left stop (push order incorrect answer), as described above, the small role 27 or the small role 28 can be won, so when the left reel 31 is stopped, "watermelon" Or “cherry” (“PB = 1” arrangement) is stopped.
Next, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, any one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” or “blank B” (arrangement of “PB = 1”) is stopped on the effective line.
Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. Here, since the “watermelon” of the right reel 31 has the “PB ≠ 1” arrangement, the winning is not always won, and it may be missed.

FIG. 17 is a diagram showing the special drawings 1 to 3 when the small roles B01 to B06 are won.
In the present specification, when a winning combination of “PB ≠ 1” is won, the stopping result when the winning combination is not won is referred to as “cobbing”. Among the Koboshi eyes, a specific stop event is called a “special figure”. In particular, in the present embodiment, the “special drawing” refers to a stop-out event that shifts RT (game state).

  As described above, at the time of winning the small role B01, at the time of the first stop at the left, the “watermelon” or “cherry” of the left reel 31 and the “red 7”, “white 7”, “blank A” of the middle reel 31 or “Blank B” can be stopped by “PB = 1”. On the other hand, the “watermelon” of the right reel 31 is “PB ≠ 1”. If the “watermelon” cannot be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped as shown in FIG. As a result, when the small combination B01 is won, the special figure 1 is stopped when the small combination 26 or the small combination 27 is not won. As will be described later, the special figure is a combination of symbols that trigger the transition of the gaming state (RT).

  In the case of winning the small role B02 to B06, as in the case of winning the small role B01, the small role 26 is won in the correct pushing order, and the small role 29 to the small role 32 is awarded in the incorrect pressing order. When the small combination cannot be won at the time when the push order is incorrect, the special figure is controlled to stop.

The small role C table is used when the small role C is won, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, the combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is determined so that the small role 33 is won. The combination of symbols of the small role 33 is as shown in FIG. 7. For example, when the forward push is performed, the middle reel 31 may be missed (“PB ≠ 1” arrangement).
The small role D table is used at the time of winning the small role D, and defines a combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped so that the small role 37 or the small role 38 is awarded within the range of the stop control of the reel 31. is there. Since each of the small combination 37 and the small combination 38 has a single payout number, there is no number / number priority and any combination of symbols may be stopped. The small combination 37 or the small combination 38 can be awarded with “PB = 1”.

  The small role E table is used when winning the small role E, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped so that the small role 34, the small role 35, or the small role 36 is won. Is defined. In the present embodiment, since the payout number of the small combination 34 is the largest, when the small combination E is won, the small combination 34 is controlled to win. The small role 34 can be awarded with “PB = 1”.

  The non-winning table is used for a game that has not won any of the winning combinations (when the winning number is “03”) so that the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the winning combinations does not stop on the active line. The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so as not to stop.

  As described above, in a game in which one of the small roles A01 to A12 is won, SB01 to SB03 may win depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing of the stop switch 42. When the SB wins, the SB game is executed in the next game. Only one game is executed for the SB game, and after the completion of the one game, the game state before the transition to the SB game is restored. The transition to the SB game is performed by the game state control means 63f (special game control means).

As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, no matter which game state is changed to SB game, in the SB game, the small roles A01 to A12 are drawn and one of the small roles A01 to A12 is won. At that time, the stop control at the time of winning the small roles A01 to A12 is performed.
In addition, a non-winning table is used when a winning combination is not won.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 12, an MB lottery is performed in any game state of non-RT and RT1 to RT7, and when MB is won, as described above, MB is always won in the game (PB = 1). The MB game is executed by MB winning in any RT state, and even if the MB wins, the RT is not changed.
The MB game is executed until the number of medals paid out during the MB game exceeds 13 (until 14 or more). When the number of medals paid out in the MB game exceeds 13 at the end of the game, it is determined that the MB game end condition is satisfied in the game, and the MB game is ended. Then, the game is started from the same RT game state as before the MB winning. The MB game is executed by the game state control means 63f (special game control means).

In the MB game, the winning flag is controlled as follows, and the lottery of the combination is performed.
(1) At the start of the game (when the start switch 41 is operated), the winning flags of all the small roles 01 to 38 are turned on regardless of the lottery. For this reason, although it is not what won the small combination by lottery, it will be in the same state as the state where all the small combinations 01-38 are won. Then, in the process at the end of the game (the process after the process of paying out medals related to the winning combination, etc.), the winning flag of the turned-off small combination is turned off. As shown below, when a replay is won in the game, the winning flag is similarly turned off.
(2) A lottery for replays drawn at the RT is performed with the same number as the RT. For example, when the game moves to the MB game at RT2, in the MB game, the replays C1 to C6 are all drawn with the winning probability of the number “7998” (FIG. 12). The same applies to other RTs.

  (3) The lotteries of the small roles A01 to A12 that are selected and overlapped with SB are drawn with the same number as the RT. In the present embodiment, since the winning numbers for the small roles A01 to A12 are set to “1220” for both non-RT and RT1 to RT7, lottery is performed according to the number. However, during the MB game, as described above, all winning flags of the small roles 01 to 38 are turned on. For this reason, for example, when winning the small role A01 during the MB game, the winning flags of the small role 01, the small role 02, the small role 18 and the small role 24 are not turned on, but these small roles are turned on. The winning combination flag remains on from the beginning, and the winning flag of SB01 is further turned on. That is, when winning a small combination A01-A12 during the MB game, the winning flag of any SB included in the winning is further turned on. For example, when winning the small combination A01 during the MB game, the winning flag of SB01 is turned on in addition to the small combination 01 to small combination 38 for which the winning flag has been turned on from the beginning.

  In addition, the SB winning in the MB game is set as a punk (end) combination of the MB game. Accordingly, when the small roles A01 to A12 are won during the MB game, that is, when the SB01 to SB03 are won, the MB game ends in the game regardless of the number of medals paid out.

  Next, stop control of the reel 31 during the MB game will be described. As described above, in the MB game, regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42, the left and middle reels 31 are stopped within 190 ms (the maximum number of frames to be transferred is 4 frames), and the right reel 31 is stopped within 75 ms. Control (maximum number of transfer frames is 1 frame).

FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining stop control when a winning combination is not won during MB game, that is, when the winning flags of the small roles 01 to 38 are ON (the winning flags of the roles other than the small roles are OFF). .
As shown in FIG. 18, in the MB game, when the combination is not won, the winning flags that are turned on are the small combination 01 to the small combination 38, and the total number of combinations of the symbols is 159.

In the case of the first left stop, the number of combinations of symbols and the number of payouts of the symbols on the left reel 31 and the symbols that can be awarded are as shown in FIG. For example, when “Red 7” is stopped on the active line when the left reel 31 is stopped, the number of symbol combinations that can be won at that time is 15, and the maximum payout number is 1.
When the winning combination is not won in the MB game, the number priority control is performed regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42. As shown in FIG. 18, at the time of the first stop on the left, “replay”, “watermelon”, and “cherry” each have 24 symbol combinations, which is the same number. Accordingly, during the number priority control, any one of “Replay”, “Watermelon”, and “Cherry” can be pulled in and can be arbitrarily set. In the present embodiment, “replay” is preferentially drawn.

When the “replay” is stopped on the active line at the time of the first stop at the left, the maximum payout number that can be won at this point is one. Therefore, after the second stop, any combination of symbols may be stopped on the active line. Actually, the combinations of symbols that can be awarded are a small combination 14, a small combination 15, a small combination 16, a small combination 17, a small combination 36, and a small combination 37.
In the present embodiment, “blank C” is stopped for the middle reel 31 after the first left stop. Since the “blank C” of the middle reel 31 has the “PB = 1” arrangement, it can always be stopped at the effective line.
As a result, “replay”-“blank C”-“rotating” is selected, and the combination of symbols that can be won is a small combination 36. The reason why the setting is made in this manner is that when the right reel 31 is stopped during the MB game, the stop is within 75 ms (the maximum number of moving frames is 1 frame). In such a case, “PB = 1” is set. Because.

Therefore, since the right reel 31 is “ANY”, any symbol may be stopped on the active line. However, in this embodiment, “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A” ”,“ Blank B ”, or“ Blank C ”(designs other than“ Bell ”,“ Watermelon ”,“ Cherry ”) are stopped. Since these six kinds of symbols are arranged within at least two symbols on the right reel 31, they can always be stopped even if the maximum moving frame number is within one frame.
As a result, “Replay”-“Blank C”-“ANY”, which is the small role 36, stops in the active line.
Each reel 31 is controlled to be stopped in the same way as described above in the order of pressing in the left and right directions.

Next, in the case of the middle first stop at the time of non-winning of the winning combination in the MB game, stop control is performed as follows.
FIG. 19 (upper) is a diagram showing the symbols at the time of the middle first stop, the number of symbol combinations that can be awarded, and the maximum number of symbols that can be acquired. When the middle reel 31 is stopped and controlled with priority given to the number at the time of the first middle stop, as shown in FIG. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is determined that “replay” is stopped and one can be acquired.

For the left reel 31, “blank C” is stopped at the active line.
Furthermore, for the right reel 31, similarly to the above, any one of “Red 7”, “White 7”, “Replay”, “Blank A”, “Blank B”, and “Blank C” is stopped (75 ms). Within stop control).
As a result, “blank C”-“replay”-“ANY”, which is the small role 36, stops in the active line. It should be noted that the same stop control is performed regardless of the pressing order of the middle left and right and the middle right and left.

In the case of a right first stop at the time of a non-winning combination in MB game, stop control is performed as follows.
FIG. 19 (bottom) is a diagram showing a symbol at the time of the first stop on the right, the number of symbol combinations that can be awarded, and the maximum number that can be obtained. In FIG. 19, the numbers excluding the “ANY” symbol are shown.
Here, since the right reel 31 in the MB game is controlled to stop within 75 ms, there is a case where the symbol to be stopped cannot be drawn to the effective line when the number priority or the number priority is executed. As shown in FIG. 19, for example, when the number priority is executed, “Replay” needs to be stopped on the effective line, but “Replay” cannot be stopped on the effective line by stop control within 75 ms. Because there is also.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, as described above, when the right reel 31 is stopped during the MB game, “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, “blank C” ”Is stopped.

For example, when “Red 7” is stopped at the first stop on the right, the symbol combinations that can be awarded at this time are:
Small role 04: "Bell"-"Blank C"-"Red 7"
Small role 08: "Blank C"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
Small part 16: "Replay"-"Watermelon"-"Red 7"
Small part 17: "Replay"-"Cherry"-"Red 7"
Small part 20: "Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 21: "Cherry"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 34: "Blank C"-"Blank C"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Watermelon"-"Watermelon"-"ANY"
Small part 35: "Watermelon"-"Cherry"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Cherry"-"Watermelon"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Cherry"-"Cherry"-"ANY"
Small part 36: "Replay"-"Blank C"-"ANY"
Small part 36: "Blank C"-"Replay"-"ANY"
Small part 37: "Replay"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Bell"-"Watermelon"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Bell"-"Cherry"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Watermelon"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Cherry"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
18 in total.

Therefore, for example, when performing number priority at the time of the second left stop, the number of symbols of the left reel 31 is
Bell: 3 Blank C: 3 Replay: 4 Watermelon: 4 Cherry: 4 The symbols that can be stopped on the active line are either “Replay”, “Watermelon”, or “Cherry” (maximum 4). Therefore, in the present embodiment, the symbol to be drawn is determined as “replay” when the winning combination is not won. Thus, in the above example, “Replay” − “Rotating” − “Red 7”.

  Even when “White 7”, “Replay”, “Blank A”, “Blank B”, and “Blank C” other than “Red 7” are stopped at the right first stop, ”,“ Watermelon ”and“ Cherry ”are the same number and the maximum number. Even in this case, if the winning combination is not won, the “replay” is stopped at the time of the second left stop.

Furthermore, at the middle third stop,
Small part 16: "Replay"-"Watermelon"-"Red 7"
Small part 17: "Replay"-"Cherry"-"Red 7"
Small part 36: "Replay"-"Blank C"-"ANY"
Small part 37: "Replay"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Since any of them can be stopped, the symbols that can be stopped are “watermelon”, “cherry”, “blank C”, and “replay”. In this embodiment, “blank C” is stopped. As a result, the symbol combination on the active line becomes “Replay” − “Blank C” − “ANY (Red 7)”, and the small combination 36 is awarded.

On the other hand, when “Red 7” is stopped at the right first stop, the number of symbol combinations that can be won is 18 as described above. In this case, the number priority is given at the middle second stop. When the number of symbols on the middle reel 31 is
Bell: 3 Blank C: 3 Replay: 4 Watermelon: 4 Cherry: 4 The symbols that can be stopped on the active line are “Replay”, “Watermelon”, “Cherry” (maximum number 4) ).

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the symbol to be drawn is determined as “replay” when the winning combination is not won. Thus, in the above example, “Rotating” − “Replay” − “Red 7”.
Even when “White 7”, “Replay”, “Blank A”, “Blank B”, and “Blank C” other than “Red 7” are stopped at the right first stop, ”,“ Watermelon ”and“ Cherry ”are the same number (4) and the maximum number. Even in this case, if the winning combination is not won, the “replay” is stopped at the time of the second stop.

Furthermore, at the third stop on the left,
Small part 20: "Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 21: "Cherry"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 36: "Blank C"-"Replay"-"ANY"
Small part 37: "Replay"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
4 types can be awarded.

  Therefore, the symbols that can be stopped are “watermelon”, “cherry”, “blank C”, and “replay”, one each. Furthermore, they all play a single role. For this reason, there is no superiority or inferiority to stop any of them, so it is possible to stop any of them. In this embodiment, “blank C” is stopped. As a result, the combination of symbols on the active line becomes “blank C” − “replay” − “ANY (red 7)”, and the small role 36 is awarded.

Further, during the MB game, when priority is given to the number of sheets, stop control is performed as follows.
Of the small roles 01 to 38, the small payout 34 is the maximum payout number. Therefore, when priority is given to the number of sheets, control is performed so that the small combination 34 is won.
As shown in FIG. 18, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “blank C” is stopped on the effective line. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “blank C” is stopped at the effective line as shown in FIG. 18 and 19 both show the time of the first stop, but “blank C” is set to the effective line when the left and middle reels 31 are stopped even in the second or third stop. Stop.

Further, since the symbol related to the right reel 31 of the small role 34 is “ANY”, any symbol may be stopped, but in the present embodiment, “red 7”, “white” as in the case of the number priority. 7 ”,“ Replay ”,“ Blank A ”,“ Blank B ”, or“ Blank C ”are stopped.
Thereby, when the number of sheets is prioritized, the small combination 34 wins.

FIG. 20 is a diagram showing the relationship between the winning combination, the pushing order, and the winning combination in the MB game. As described above, when a winning combination is not won in the MB game, the number priority is given regardless of the pressing order, and one small winning combination is won.
On the other hand, when one of the winning combinations is won during the MB game, the winning combinations are changed according to the winning combination and the pressing order (number priority / number priority is different).

  During the MB game, as shown in FIG. 20, replay and SB (small roles A01 to A12) are drawn. Regardless of the winning combination, only the small role is the target for winning. It is. Therefore, even if a replay or SB is won during the MB game, these combinations will not win.

First, during the MB game, the small roles A01 to A12 are won, and when SB01 to SB03 are won, the number priority and the number priority are switched according to the type of the selected SB.
As shown in FIG. 20, when winning SB01 (when winning a small role A01, A02, A05, A06), priority is given to the number at the first left stop and priority is given to the middle or right first stop.

In this case, at the time of the first stop at the left, as shown in FIG. 18, priority is given to the number of sheets, and control is performed so that the 14-piece combination (small combination 34) is won. Therefore, when the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, “blank C” is stopped. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, as described above, any one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is stopped. Thereby, the small role 34 can be won.
On the other hand, when SB01 is won in the MB game, when the middle or right first stop, priority is given to the number in the same manner as in the case where the above-mentioned winning combination is not won, and a single winning combination (small role 36) is won.

In the same manner as described above, when winning SB02 during an MB game, priority is given to the number (14) at the middle first stop, and priority is given to the number at the first left or right stop (1).
In addition, when winning SB03 during the MB game, priority is given to the number (14) at the first stop on the right, and priority is given to the number (1) at the left or middle first stop.

  Furthermore, during replay A winning (non-RT, RT1 to RT7), replay B winning (RT1), replay C (C1 to C6) winning (RT2), and replay D (D1 to D6) winning during MB game (RT3), Replay E (E1 to E6) at the time of winning (RT4), Replay H (H1 to H6) at the time of winning (RT7), the same stop control is performed as when the winning combination is not won. In other words, regardless of the order in which the stop switch 42 is pressed, control is performed so that one small winning combination is won with priority on the number.

Further, when the replay F (F1 to F3) is won in the MB game, the number priority or the number priority control is performed according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. Unlike the above, a control for winning 13 winning combinations is performed.
For example, when replay F1 is won during an MB game, it is as follows.
First, in the case of the first stop on the left, 13 pieces are won with priority on the number. As shown in FIG. 18, “Replay”, “Watermelon”, or “Cherry” has the maximum number of symbol combinations that can be won when the first left stop. Then, when winning a single combination, “Replay” was stopped.

On the other hand, at the time of the first left stop at the time of replay F1 winning in the MB game, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped with priority on the number (“PB = 1” arrangement).
Further, after the first left stop, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped (arrangement of “PB = 1”). Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is set in the same manner as in the above-described number priority. Stop. As a result, the small combination 35 (13-piece combination) can be won.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 19, “blank C” is stopped (“PB = 1” arrangement) in order to give priority to the number of sheets when the replay F1 is won during the MB game and during the first stop.
In addition, after the middle first stop, when the left reel 31 stops, “blank C” is stopped (“PB = 1” arrangement). Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is set in the same manner as in the above-described number priority. Stop. As a result, the small combination 34 (14-piece combination) can be won.

In addition, when the replay F1 is won during the MB game, the number priority is given when the right first stop is performed.
First, when the right reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is stopped as in the case of the number priority. .
Further, after the right first stop, when the left reel 31 and the middle reel 31 are stopped, the “blank C” is stopped in the same manner as in the middle first stop. As a result, the small combination 34 (14-piece combination) can be won.

In addition, when replay F2 is won in the MB game, it is as follows.
First, in the case of the middle first stop, 13 pieces are won with priority on the number. As shown in FIG. 19, “Replay”, “Watermelon”, or “Cherry” has the maximum number of symbol combinations that can be won during the first stop. Then, when winning a single combination, “Replay” was stopped.

On the other hand, at the time of the first stop during the replay F2 winning in the MB game, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped according to the number priority (“PB = 1” arrangement).
Further, after the middle first stop, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped (“PB = 1” arrangement). Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is set in the same manner as in the above-described number priority. Stop. As a result, the small combination 35 (13-piece combination) can be won.

In addition, when the replay F2 is won in the MB game, and when the first left stop is performed, priority is given to the number of sheets. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 18, “blank C” is stopped (“PB = 1” arrangement).
After the first left stop, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “blank C” is stopped (“PB = 1” arrangement). Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is set in the same manner as in the above-described number priority. Stop. As a result, the small combination 34 (14-piece combination) can be won.
Furthermore, when the replay F2 is won during the MB game, and when the right first stop is performed, the number priority control is performed in the same manner as the above-described replay F1 win.

Furthermore, the number priority control is performed at the time of the first right stop when the replay F3 is won in the MB game. Similarly to the above, at the time of the first right stop, any one of “red 7”, “white 7”, “replay”, “blank A”, “blank B”, and “blank C” is stopped.
As described above, assuming that “Red 7” is stopped at the time of the first stop on the right, the combination of symbols that can be awarded at that time is:
Small role 04: "Bell"-"Blank C"-"Red 7"
Small role 08: "Blank C"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
Small part 16: "Replay"-"Watermelon"-"Red 7"
Small part 17: "Replay"-"Cherry"-"Red 7"
Small part 20: "Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 21: "Cherry"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 34: "Blank C"-"Blank C"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Watermelon"-"Watermelon"-"ANY"
Small part 35: "Watermelon"-"Cherry"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Cherry"-"Watermelon"-"ANY"
Small role 35: "Cherry"-"Cherry"-"ANY"
Small part 36: "Replay"-"Blank C"-"ANY"
Small part 36: "Blank C"-"Replay"-"ANY"
Small part 37: "Replay"-"Replay"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Bell"-"Watermelon"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Bell"-"Cherry"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Watermelon"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
Small part 38: "Cherry"-"Bell"-"Red 7"
18 in total.

Therefore, for example, when performing number priority at the time of the second left stop, the number of symbols of the left reel 31 is
Bell: 3 Blank C: 3 Replay: 4 Watermelon: 4 Cherry: 4 The symbols that can be stopped on the active line are either “Replay”, “Watermelon”, or “Cherry” (maximum 4). Here, as described above, “replay” was stopped when the winning combination was not won. On the other hand, when the replay F3 is won, the drawing pattern is determined as “watermelon” or “cherry”. Thus, in the above example, “watermelon / cherry”-“rotating”-“red 7”.

  Even when “White 7”, “Replay”, “Blank A”, “Blank B”, and “Blank C” other than “Red 7” are stopped at the right first stop, ”,“ Watermelon ”and“ Cherry ”are the same number and the maximum number. Also in this case, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped at the second left stop when the replay F3 is won.

And, for example, if you stop “watermelon” at the second stop point on the left,
"Watermelon"-"Rotating"-"Red 7"
It becomes. In this case, during the middle third stop,
Small part 20: "Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Red 7" (1 sheet)
Small part 35: "Watermelon"-"Watermelon"-"ANY" (13 photos)
Small role 35: "Watermelon"-"Cherry"-"ANY" (13 photos)
Small part 38: "Watermelon"-"Bell"-"Red 7" (1 sheet)
4 types can be awarded.

Therefore, the symbols that can be stopped are “replay”, “watermelon”, “cherry”, and “bell”. In the present embodiment, “watermelon” or “cherry” is defined as the symbol to be stopped at the middle third stop. As a result, the combination of symbols on the active line is “watermelon” − “watermelon / cherry” − “ANY (red 7)”, and the small role 35 can be won. When “Cherry” is stopped at the second stop on the left,
"Cherry"-"Rotating"-"Red 7"
It becomes. In this case, during the middle third stop,
Small part 21: "Cherry"-"Replay"-"Red 7" (1 sheet)
Small part 35: "Cherry"-"Watermelon"-"ANY" (13 photos)
Small role 35: "Cherry"-"Cherry"-"ANY" (13 photos)
Small role 38: "Cherry"-"Bell"-"Red 7" (1 sheet)
4 types can be awarded. Then, during the middle third stop, “watermelon” or “cherry” is stopped and the small part 35 is awarded in the same manner as described above.

At the time of replay F3 winning in the MB game, when the first left stop, priority is given to the number in the same way as the first left stop at the time of replay F2 winning, and the 14-piece combination (small role 34) is won.
Similarly, when the replay F3 is won during the MB game, the middle first stop is prioritized in the same number as the middle first stop during the replay F1 win, and the 14-card combination (small role 34) is won.

In the MB game, even when Replay G (G1 to G6) is won, stop control is performed according to the order of pressing the stop switch 42, and the 13-piece role (small role 35) is won with priority on the number. Or, a 14-piece combination (small combination 34) is won with priority given to the number.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20, when the replay G1 or G2 is won, the same stop control is performed as when the replay F1 is won. Further, when the replay G3 or G4 is won, the same stop control is performed as when the replay F2 is won. Furthermore, when the replay G5 or G6 is won, the same stop control is performed as when the replay F3 is won.

Returning to FIG.
In FIG. 1, the winning determination means 63d of the main CPU 63 determines whether or not the combination of symbols corresponding to any combination has stopped on the active line when all the reels 31 are stopped. The winning determination means 63d determines the symbol on the effective line by detecting the number of steps of the motor 32 after the reel sensor 39 detects the index, for example. However, the winning determination means 63d can determine the stop symbol regardless of whether or not the reel 31 is stopped when the stop switch 42 is operated and the stop position of the reel 31 is determined.

  When all the reels 31 are stopped, the payout means 63e determines that the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the winning combinations has stopped on the active line, and when the winning combination of the winning combination is determined according to the winning combination. Pay out the number of medals to the player. The payout is added as the stored number, or when the stored number exceeds “50”, the medal is actually paid out from the payout opening. When actually paying out medals, the hopper motor 36 is driven and controlled to pay out a predetermined number of medals. At the time of paying out medals, the payout medals are detected by the payout sensors 37a and 37b, and it is checked whether or not they have been paid out correctly.

  As described above, at the start of the game, the player operates the bet switch 40 to insert a previously stored medal, or inserts a medal from the medal insertion slot 44 and operates the start switch 41 (ON). ) When the start switch 41 is operated, the reel control means 63c controls to drive all the motors 32 and rotate all the reels 31. As the reel 31 is rotated by the motor 32 in this way, the symbols on the reel 31 are moved and displayed in the vertical direction in the display window 13 at a predetermined speed. When the start switch 41 is operated, the part lottery means 63b performs a part lottery.

  Then, the player presses the stop switch 42 to stop the rotation of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 (for example, the left reel 31 corresponding to the left stop switch 42). When the stop switch 42 is operated, the reel control means 63c drives and controls the motor 32 corresponding to the stop switch 42, and performs stop control of the reel 31 related to the motor 32.

  Then, the game result of the game is displayed by the combination of symbols when all the reels 31 are stopped. Furthermore, when the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the winning combinations stops on the active line (when the winning combination of the winning combination), a medal corresponding to the winning combination is paid out.

The gaming state control means 63f determines whether or not the gaming state transition condition is satisfied, and when it determines that the gaming state transition condition is satisfied, controls to shift the gaming state. Further, the gaming state control means 63f determines (by lottery) whether or not to execute ART.
FIG. 21 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state. Hereinafter, the game state control means 63f will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 21, in this embodiment, a plurality of types of RTs (non-RT, RT1 to RT7) are provided as gaming states. In the present specification, “non-RT” does not mean that it is not RT. First, a non-RT is provided as one of the gaming states (RT), and gaming states (RT) having different replay winning probabilities from the non-RT are referred to as RT1, RT2,. “RT” is synonymous with “gaming state” and is defined as “RT (gaming state) = non-RT, RT1, RT2,...

Furthermore, in this embodiment, non-RT and RT1 to RT7 are divided into three gaming states A group, B group, and C group. Note that only one RT may belong to one gaming state group, or a plurality of RTs may belong.
In the present embodiment, a transition is made from one RT in the gaming state group A (RT1 in this embodiment) to one RT in the gaming state group B (RT2 in the present embodiment), and one RT in the gaming state group B (RT2 in this embodiment). In the present embodiment, a transition is made from RT4) to one RT in the gaming state group C (RT5 in the embodiment).
Furthermore, there is a case where the transition is made from any RT in the gaming state B group and any RT in the gaming state C group to RT1 in the gaming state A group.

First, when the RWM 61 is initialized, the gaming state is set to non-RT. Non-RT is a low probability RT. “Low accuracy” and “high accuracy” shown in FIG. 21 indicate the winning probability of replay.
As shown in FIG. 12, in the replay in the non-RT, only the replay A is lottery, and the winning probability value is “8978” (about 1 / 7.3).
The gaming state control means 63f moves to RT1 when the special figure (FIG. 17) is stopped and displayed in non-RT. The special chart is displayed only when the small roles B01 to B06 are won. The combined winning probability number of the small roles B01 to B06 is “16 × 6” (about 1/683).
Of the gaming states described below, any game state other than RT1 (non-RT, RT2 to RT7) shifts to RT1 when a special figure is displayed.

RT1 is a low probability RT that shifts when a special figure is displayed in another gaming state. As shown in FIG. 12, in the replay at RT1, replay B is drawn in lots, and the combined winning probability number is “8979” (about 1 / 7.3).
In RT1, as shown in FIG. 12, only Replay B (Replay 03) is drawn, but when Replay 03 wins in RT1, the process proceeds to RT2.
RT2 is an RT that shifts when replays 03, 06, 07, 09, and 10 win in other gaming states, and is a highly probable RT. As shown in FIG. 12, in the replay at RT2, replays C1 to C6 are lottery, and the combined winning probability number is “47988” (about 1 / 1.4).

In RT2, the replays C1 to C6 are selected by lottery, and when the replay 02 wins, the process proceeds to RT3. RT3 is a high-accuracy RT (replay winning probability is about 1 / 1.4) like RT2. In RT3, replays D1 to D6 are drawn, and when replay 05 wins, the process shifts to RT4, and when replay 06 or 07 wins, the process shifts to RT2 (returns).
RT4 is a highly accurate RT (replay winning probability is about 1 / 1.4). In RT4, replays E1 to E6 are drawn. And when replay 09 or 10 wins, it transfers to RT2 (return).

On the other hand, when Replay 08 wins at RT4, the process proceeds to RT5. RT5 is an RT that shifts when replays 08 and 14 win, and is a high-accuracy RT (replay winning probability is about 1 / 1.3). RT5 is an RT for ART as will be described later.
In RT5, as shown in FIG. 12, replays F1 to F3 are drawn. When the replay 11 wins, RT5 is maintained, and when the replay 12 or 13 wins, the process proceeds to RT7.

RT7 is an RT that shifts when replay 12, 13, 15, or 16 wins, and is a low probability RT (replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3). RT7 is a non-ART (so-called normal game) RT as will be described later.
In RT7, as shown in FIG. 12, replays H1 to H6 are selected by lottery. When the replay 18 or 19 wins, RT7 is maintained, and when the replay 17 wins, the process proceeds to RT6.

RT6 is an RT that shifts when the replay 17 wins, and is a low probability RT (replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3). RT6 is an RT for preparing an ART, as will be described later.
In RT6, as shown in FIG. 12, replays G1 to G6 are selected by lottery. When the replay 14 wins, the process goes to RT5, and when the replay 15 or 16 wins, the process goes to RT7.

  In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, it is assumed that the user stays at RT5 to RT7. The RT 7 is a non-ART (so-called normal game), and an ART lottery is performed at the RT 7, and when the lottery is won, the ART is determined to be executed. Then, the process proceeds to RT7 (ART) via RT6 (ART preparation in progress), and ART is executed.

As an ART lottery, in RT7, for example, a lottery is performed using each game, a software random number, or a game number lottery is started at what game the next ART starts when a non-ART is started. A lottery may be performed with a predetermined probability when winning a small role (small roles C to E).
In addition, although the ART termination conditions can be variously set, for example, the acquired number of games is a predetermined number or more, the number of games is a predetermined number or more, and the number of wins of the small roles A01 to A12 is a predetermined number of times. It can be set to become.

When the ART is won at RT7, first, when the replay H is won, the correct answer pressing order for winning the replay 17 is notified. When the replay 17 wins, the process shifts to RT6, and ART preparation is started.
In the present embodiment, “ART” is a stop switch that is most advantageous to a player when a winning combination that results in an advantage / disadvantage in the game result or the subsequent game is won according to the operation mode of the stop switch 42. A game (notification game) that notifies the player of 42 operation modes (push order). In particular, in the present embodiment, the correct answer pressing order (the pressing order for paying out 9 cards) is notified when the small roles A01 to A12 are selected. This notification is performed during the ART preparation of RT6 and the ART of RT5.

Furthermore, during the ART preparation of RT6, when the replay G is won, the correct answer pressing order for winning the replay 14 is notified. When the replay 14 wins at RT6, the process shifts to RT5 and starts ART.
Furthermore, in RT5, in addition to the above-described correct pressing order when winning the small roles A01 to A12, when pressing Replay F, the pressing order for maintaining RT5, that is, the correct pressing order for winning the replay 11, is notified. Thus, during ART, the player does not fall from RT5 to RT7 by following the press order of the notification contents.

  During RT7 (non-ART) where the ART is not won, the correct pressing order is not notified when the small roles A01 to A12 are won. Therefore, when winning the small role A, there are cases where nine payouts are received in the correct pressing order, and one winning combination is awarded in the incorrect pressing order. Also, in RT7 during non-ART, there is a case where the correct answer is pushed in the replay H win, and the process is shifted to RT6 by chance. However, after the transition to RT6, when the replay G is won, the wrong order is pushed with a probability of 2/3, and the replay 15 or 16 wins and falls to RT7.

After transitioning to RT6 during non-ART, there is a case where when the replay G is won, the correct answer is accidentally pushed and the transition is made to RT5. In this case, the replay has a high probability. However, since the correct answer pressing order is not notified at the time of Replay F winning, it becomes an incorrect answer pressing order with a probability of 2/3 at the time of Replay F winning, and Replay 12 or 13 wins and falls to RT7.
In addition, if the ART is not won, the correct push order is not notified when the small roles A01 to A12 are won even if the RT7, RT6, and RT5 are accidentally transferred. Therefore, medals rarely increase.

  Furthermore, when the small roles B01 to B06 are won in RT2 to RT7, the correct answer pressing order, that is, the pressing order for winning the small combination 26 is always notified regardless of whether or not the ART combination is being performed. As a result, in RT2 to RT7, as long as the stop switch 42 is operated according to the notification, the special figure is not displayed and the process does not shift to RT1. In RT2 to RT7, when the small combination B01 to B06 is selected, if the stop switch 42 is operated without following the notified correct pressing order and the small combination is missed, one of special figures 1 to 3 (FIG. 17) Is displayed and the process proceeds to RT1.

Further, as described above, MBs are drawn in any RT. As shown in FIG. 12, the winning probability number is “3800” (about 1/17).
When the MB is won, as described above, the MB always wins in the game. Then, the game state control means 63f controls to start the MB game from the next game.
The MB game of this embodiment is
(1) When the number of medals paid out during MB game exceeds 13 (more than 14)
(2) It is set to end when SB is won. When the MB game ends, the game state control means 63f controls to return to the game state before the MB game transition (RT before the MB game transition).

When the MB is won during non-ART, that is, non-RT, RT1 to RT4 and RT7, and the game is shifted to the MB game, the advantageous pushing order in the MB game is not notified.
As shown in FIG. 20, in the MB game, when a combination is not won or when a replay is won (in the RT), a single combination wins regardless of the order in which the stop switch 42 is pressed. Therefore, if the non-winning or replay winning of a combination is continued in the MB game, each game, one winning combination wins, a total of 14 payouts (exceeding 13) in the 14th game, and the MB game ends. As a result, in the MB game, when a combination is not won or when a replay is won, a game in which three pieces are inserted and one piece is paid out continues.

In addition, during the MB game, when SB01 to SB03 are won, the MB game is finished with the game.
When SB is won, as shown in FIG. 20, one or 14 winning combinations are won according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. During non-ART, the pressing order of the stop switch 42 for winning 14 winning combinations is not notified. Therefore, in the game won for SB, 1 or 14 payouts are made, and the MB game is terminated in the game.

On the other hand, if you win ART and move to RT6 (now preparing for ART) or RT7 (ART), if you win MB at these RT5 or RT6 and move to MB game, there is an advantageous push order Informed.
First, when the winning combination is not won, the winning order is not notified because one winning combination is won regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In this embodiment, there is a case where the winning combination is not won in RT6, but there is no case where the winning combination is not won in RT7.

  When the SB is won, the MB game is ended by the winning of the SB, but in this game, the pressing order of the stop switch 42 in which 14 winning combinations are won is notified. For example, when winning the small combination A03, that is, when winning SB02, it notifies that “medium first stop”. As a result, 14 tickets are paid out in the game, and the MB game is terminated.

  Also, in RT5 or RT6, when the replay F or G is won in the first game of the MB game, the pressing order in which the 13 winning combinations wins is notified. For example, when a transition is made to an MB game during RT5 and the replay F1 is won in the first game of the MB game, as shown in FIG. 20, “first left stop” is notified. As a result, 13 games are paid out in the game, and 13 games are not exceeded in the game, so the MB game does not end in the game. In addition, when the replay F or G is won in the second game or later, the order of pressing the stop switch 42 in which 14 winning combinations are won is notified. For example, when the replay F2 is won, “Left first stop” or “Right first stop” is notified. In this case, “left or right (which is optional)” may be notified, but left or right may be determined by lottery and either one may be notified.

As a result of the above notification, if the game that won the Replay F or G continues for 2 games when the game moves from RT5 or RT6 to MB game, 13 games for the first game and 14 games for the second game will be obtained. And the maximum number of MB games can be obtained. Accordingly, since 27 games can be obtained in 2 games, the difference number can be increased.
In addition, even if Replay F or G is won in the first game and 13 are won, and even if SB is won in the second game, the push order in which the 14 winning combination wins is notified in the SB game. Even in this case, 27 cards can be obtained in the same manner as above.

Next, in FIG. 21, RT2 to RT4 that are the gaming state group B and RT5 to RT7 that are the gaming state group C will be described.
When the RWM 61 is initialized, it shifts to non-RT, and in this non-RT, operation information for displaying a special figure at the time of winning the small roles B01 to B06 (the push order for displaying the special figure and the pattern to be aimed at) Is notified. This is because, as described above, the special figure is one of the stitches at the time when the push order is incorrect, so it is necessary to add the push order so as to miss it. When a special figure is displayed and the process proceeds to RT1, RT1 is maintained until Replay 03 wins. When RT1 wins Replay B, and Replay 03 wins, it moves to RT2. In RT2, when the replay C is won, the order of pushing the replay 02 is notified. Thereby, according to the notified pressing order, it is possible to win the replay 02 and shift to RT3.
In RT3, a notification is made of the pressing order for winning Replay 05 when Replay D is won. Thereby, according to the notified pressing order, the replay 05 can be won and can be shifted to RT4.

In RT4, a notification is made of the pressing order for winning Replay 08 when Replay E is won. Thereby, if the notified pressing order is followed, the replay 08 can be won and can be shifted to RT5.
Next, RT5 does not notify the pressing order when Replay F is won. As a result, when Replay F is won, the game moves to RT7 with a probability of 2/3. In RT5, the notification of the push order for winning the replay 12 or 13 in RT5 is not performed in this embodiment because the push order for shifting to RT that is disadvantageous (low replay probability) is not reported. .

  As described above, when the RWM 61 is initialized, the gaming state is started from non-RT, but when the special drawings 1 to 3 are displayed in non-RT, the process proceeds to RT1. Then, the pressing order is notified from RT1 until the transition to RT2, RT3, RT4, and RT5. When the process moves to RT5, it waits for the replay 12 or 13 to win, and when the replay 12 or 13 wins, the process moves to RT7.

  When RT7 becomes a non-ART (so-called normal game) and the player wins ART at RT7, the push order to shift to RT6 (the correct push order to win Replay 17) is notified at the time of winning Replay H, and RT6 being prepared for RT6 Migrate to Further, in RT6, when the replay G is won, the push order to shift to RT5 (correct push order for winning the replay 14) is notified, and the process shifts to RT5 and starts ART.

During the ART of RT5, the correct pressing order is notified when the small role is won. Further, when the replay F is won, the correct answer pressing order for winning the replay 11 (the pressing order for maintaining RT5) is notified.
After the end of ART, the correct pressing order is not notified when the small role A is won. Furthermore, the correct pressing order is not notified even when Replay F is won. For this reason, when Replay F is won, the push order is incorrect with a probability of 2/3, and Replay 12 or 13 wins and falls to RT7.

Furthermore, when RT5 to RT7 (gaming state group C) stays and replay B is won, the correct pressing order is notified regardless of whether the player is ART. As a result, the small role 26 can be won and a special figure is not displayed, so there is no case of shifting to RT1.
That is, once transitioning to the gaming state group C, the transition between RT5 to RT7 is repeated in the gaming state group C, and stays at RT7 almost during non-ART. For this reason, there is no transition from the gaming state group C to the gaming state group A or group B.

However, when the game state C group stays, the small role B is won and the correct pressing order is notified, but a special figure is displayed due to an operation error of the player, and the process may shift to RT1.
In such a case, the correct pressing order is notified at the time of replay winning until the transition from RT1 to RT5. In other words, the game state A group and the B group are not allowed to stay as much as possible, and the push order notification for shifting to the game state C group is performed.

Here, the following three types of virtual game progress modes (virtual game progress modes x to z) are considered.
First, the virtual game progression mode x is a game progression mode that assumes that the winning combination in the game is always won (when the combination having the correct answer pressing order is won, the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct answer pressing order). In this case, when winning the small combination B01 to B06 in the non-RT, the selected small combination is not missed, so that no special figure is displayed. Therefore, in the case of the virtual game progress mode x, the game will continue to proceed with non-RT, and there is no case of shifting to another RT such as RT1.

Further, the virtual game progress mode y is a game progress mode in which it is assumed that the game is progressed with the push order of the stop switch 42 fixed or random, and that the push order is followed when the push order is notified.
In this case, in the non-RT, since the push order (incorrect answer push order) for displaying the special figure at the time of winning the small roles B01 to B06 is notified, the special figure is displayed by operating the stop switch 42 according to the push order. It can be displayed. When the special figure is displayed and the process proceeds to RT1, as described above, the process proceeds to RT5 if the push order notification is followed. After the transition to RT5, the transition is made between RT5 and RT7, but the stay rate of RT7 is increased. Further, when the small combination B is won during RT5 to RT7, the correct answer push order not displaying the special figure is notified, so that the special figure is not displayed if the stop switch 42 is operated in accordance with the notification. Therefore, RT stays in the gaming state group C all the time.

  Furthermore, the virtual game progress mode z is a game progress that assumes that the push order of the stop switch 42 is fixed or random and the game progresses, and that the push order is ignored during the push order notification. It is an aspect.

In the virtual game progress mode z, first, in the non-RT, when the small role B is won, there are a case where the special figure is not displayed without being displayed and a case where the special figure is displayed and the process proceeds to RT1.
In RT1, the player waits for Replay B to win, and if Replay B is won and Replay 03 wins, the process proceeds to RT2.
When transitioning to RT2, when Replay C is won, RT2 is maintained with a probability of 2/3, and transitioning to RT3 with a probability of 1/3.

Further, when transitioning to RT3, when Replay D is won, transition to RT2 is performed with a probability of 2/3, and transition to RT4 is performed with a probability of 1/3.
Furthermore, in RT4, when Replay E is won, the process shifts to RT5 with a probability of 1/3 and returns to RT2 with a probability of 2/3.

As described above, in the virtual game progress mode z, the probability of shifting to the game state C group after staying in the game state B group is 1/27 at the time of replay winning.
Further, in RT2 to RT4, when the special figure is displayed when the small role B is won, the process proceeds to RT1.
Therefore, in the virtual game progress mode z, the player stays in the game state B group, and rarely shifts to the game state A group or C group.

Moreover, when returning to RT1, the transition of the gaming state described above is repeated.
On the other hand, when transitioning to RT5, when Replay F is won, RT5 is maintained with a probability of 1/3 and returns to RT7 with a probability of 2/3.
In RT7, when Replay H is won, the program shifts to RT6 with a probability of 1/3 and maintains RT7 with a probability of 2/3.
In RT6, when Replay G is won, the program shifts to RT5 with a probability of 1/3, and shifts to RT7 with a probability of 2/3.
Further, in RT5 to RT7, when the small role B is won, there are a case where the special figure is not displayed and the RT is maintained, and a case where the special figure is displayed and the process proceeds to RT1.

  As described above, in the virtual game progress mode x, there is no case of staying in a non-RT and shifting to another RT. Further, in non-RT, ART is not drawn and is not executed. Further, even if the MB game is executed, an advantageous push order is not notified. Furthermore, when an MB game is executed during non-RT, one payout is made when a replay is won (when Replay A is won). For this reason, during the MB game, the game state is such that medals are reduced.

  In the virtual game progress mode y, the player stays in the game state group C and draws an ART. During non-ART, most of them stay at RT7, replay is inaccurate, and the correct pressing order is not notified, so that the gaming state is reduced in medal. On the other hand, when the player wins ART and shifts to RT5, the replay accuracy is high, and the correct pressing order is notified when the small combination A is won. Thereby, it will be in the gaming state in which medals increase. Therefore, in the virtual game progress mode y, the state where the medals are decreased and the state where the medals are increased are repeated.

Furthermore, in the virtual game progress mode z, most of them stay in the game state B group. The gaming state group B is more advantageous in terms of the replay winning probability than the virtual game progress modes x and z because the winning probability of replay is high.
However, the probability of the correct answer pressing order when winning the small role A is “1/12”.
Furthermore, when the game state B group stays, the stop switch 42 cannot be operated in the correct pressing order even when the small role A is won. Furthermore, even if the MB game is executed, the 13-game combination is not won in the first game (because the replays F and G are not drawn).
Since the ART lottery is not performed when the game state B group stays, even if the game state B group is intentionally stayed, an advantageous push order is notified when the small role A is won (ART is executed). There is nothing to be done.

Further, in the virtual game progress mode z, the game state C group may be transferred very rarely. In the gaming state group C, an ART lottery is performed, and when the ART is won, a push order advantageous to the player is notified. However, in the virtual game progress mode z, the game proceeds with ignoring the notified pressing order, so that, for example, even if the small role A is won, the correct answer pressing order is 1/12.
Therefore, when staying in the game state group B almost due to the virtual game progress mode z, the winning rate is higher than RT7 due to the high replay winning probability, but it is not possible to obtain an advantageous game result when winning the small role A (Because it is equivalent to RT7).

Returning to FIG.
The command transmission means 63g transmits various information (commands) to the sub control board 80. Information to be transmitted includes information that a medal has been inserted, information that the start switch 41 has been operated, information on a lottery result (winning combination), information that rotation of the reel 31 has started, Information indicating whether the stop switch 42 has been operated, information indicating that the reels 31 have been stopped, information regarding the stop positions (designs stopped on the active line) of each reel 31, information on winning combinations, gaming status (current RT status, ART status) Information on whether or not winning, whether or not ART is being executed, whether or not ART termination conditions have been satisfied, the number of remaining acquired or paid-out MB games, and SB game termination conditions).

  In FIG. 1, the main control board 60 is electrically connected to the external concentration terminal board 100. When the main control board 60 executes the ART (when the ART lottery is won, the ART start condition is satisfied, and the gaming state becomes RT5), an external signal is output to the external concentration terminal board 100. (A signal indicating that the ART has started or started. Hereinafter, it is also referred to as an ART signal). The external signal is transmitted from, for example, the external concentration terminal board 100 to a game information display device, a hall computer, or the like.

In FIG. 1, the sub-control board 80 controls the selection and output of effects (information) during the game and during the game standby.
The main control board 60 and the sub control board 80 are electrically connected, and the serial communication circuit in the main CPU 63 of the main control board 60 is used to provide information necessary for production in one direction on the sub control board 80 ( Signal, data, control command, etc.).
The main control board 60 and the sub control board 80 are not limited to being electrically connected but may be connected using an optical communication unit. Furthermore, both the electrical connection and the optical communication connection are not limited to serial communication, and may be parallel communication.

Similarly to the main control board 60, the sub control board 80 includes an RWM 81, a ROM 82, a sub CPU 83, and the like.
The RWM (sub memory) 81 is a storage medium capable of temporarily storing data and the like captured when the sub CPU 83 controls the effect.
A ROM (sub-ROM) 82 is a storage medium for storing programs such as a lottery for production, various data, etc. as production data.

The sub-control board 80 is electrically connected to the following peripheral devices for effects through an input port or an output port (not shown in FIG. 1).
The effect lamp 21 is made of an LED, for example, and lights up in a predetermined pattern when a predetermined condition is satisfied. Note that the effect lamp 21 is arranged on the inner peripheral side of each reel 31, and a back lamp and reel 31 for illuminating from behind the symbols displayed on the reel 31 (three symbols that are continuously visible from the display window 13). Fluorescent lamps that illuminate the symbols on the reel 31 from above, and a frame lamp that is arranged on the front surface of the slot machine 10 and blinks when winning a winning combination.

The speaker 22 outputs a predetermined sound when a predetermined condition is satisfied in order to perform various effects during the game.
Furthermore, the image display device 23 is composed of a liquid crystal display, an organic EL display, a dot display, and the like. The game information (the number of games during the ART, the number of acquired games, etc.) is displayed.
The push button 24 and the cross key 25 are used when displaying information intended by the player, or when a hall manager (store manager or the like) changes various settings.

The sub CPU 83 includes effect output control means 83a.
The stage output control means 83a outputs what stage (ramp) at what timing (when the start switch 41 or each stop switch 42 is operated, etc.) according to the winning combination and the gaming state, etc. It is determined by lottery how to turn on, blink, or turn off 21, what kind of sound is output from the speaker 22, and what kind of image is displayed on the image display device 23.
Then, the effect output control means 83a controls the output of the effect lamp 21, the speaker 22, and the image display device 23 in accordance with the determination. In addition, when receiving the information indicating that it is ART, the effect output control means 83a notifies an advantageous pressing order of the stop switch 42 based on the received winning combination information. In addition, the number of acquired games and the number of remaining games during ART are displayed as images.

<Modification of First Embodiment>
FIG. 22 is a modified example of the first embodiment, and shows the relationship between the winning combination, the pressing order, and the winning combination during the MB game, and corresponds to FIG. 20 of the first embodiment.
In the first embodiment, when winning a small combination with a different number of payouts according to the type of winning combination and the pressing order of the stop switch 42,
(1) When winning 1 or 14 winning combinations,
(2) The case of winning 13 or 14 winning combinations was provided.
On the other hand, in the example of FIG. 22, at the time of replay F or G winning in the MB game, one winning combination, 13 winning combination, or 14 winning combination is won according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 (first stop). Thus, the reel 31 is controlled to stop.

For example, explanation will be given taking Replay F1 winning as an example.
In the replay F1 winning, the stop control for winning the 13-sheet combination at the time of the first left stop and the stop control for winning the 14-sheet combination at the time of the first middle stop are the same as in FIG.
On the other hand, at the time of the first right stop, the same stop control as that at the time of non-winning is performed in FIG. Therefore, the number priority is performed at the right first stop, but the number priority different from that at the first left stop is performed.
In this way, different payout numbers can be set according to the type of stop switch 42 for the first stop.

Similarly to the above, when replays F2 to F3 and replay G are won, the same stop control as in FIG. 20 is performed when winning 13 or 14 winning combinations, and when winning 1 winning combination, The stop control similar to that at the time of non-winning may be performed.
By controlling in this way, for example, when the player accidentally moves to RT6 or RT7 and further shifts to the MB game with these RTs, the combination with a large number of payouts (13) The probability that a winning combination or 14 winning combination) wins can be reduced.

Second Embodiment
23 to 33 are diagrams showing a second embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 23 is a diagram showing a symbol arrangement of the reels 31 in the second embodiment. The difference from the first embodiment is that the number of symbols on each reel 31 is set to 16.
The reel control means 63c controls to stop the reel 31 within 190 ms from the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated. This is the same as in the first embodiment. However, in the second embodiment, since the number of symbols is set to 16 (20 in the first embodiment), the maximum number of moving frames when the stop switch 42 is operated is set to 3 symbols. . For example, in FIG. 23, when the left stop switch 42 is operated immediately before the “watermelon” 01 of the left reel 31 passes the effective line, the symbols 01 to 04 can be stopped on the effective line. .

  In addition, since the MB is not provided in the second embodiment, the MB game is not executed. However, when the MB is provided as in a modification of the second embodiment described later, the right reel 31 in the MB game is The maximum moving frame number is set to 0 frame. This is because when the reel 31 is stopped within 75 ms from the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, “1 frame” cannot be secured as the number of moving frames in the case of 16 symbols. Therefore, in FIG. 23, for example, when the right stop switch 42 is operated immediately before the “replay” number 01 of the right reel 31 passes the valid line, only the “replay” symbol number 01 stops at the valid line. It becomes possible.

24 to 26 are diagrams showing combinations of symbols and symbols and the number of payouts in the second embodiment.
In the second embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, no special combination (such as MB or SB) is provided, and the combination includes only a replay or a small combination.
The replay includes replay 01 to replay 19 as shown in FIG.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 25 to 26, the small roles include a small role 01 to a small role 47.
Here, the prescribed number of the second embodiment is set to two or three, and the player can play a game with any prescribed number of these prescribed numbers.

As a result of playing the game with the prescribed number 2, when a replay is won, two medals are automatically inserted.
In addition, for the small combinations 11 to 47, the payout number at the time of winning is set to one regardless of the prescribed number.
Furthermore, the small combination 01 to the small combination 10 are set so that the number of payouts at the time of winning is different according to the specified number (the specified number 3 is more advantageous).

27 and 28 are diagrams showing a condition device (winning combination) in the second embodiment.
For example, in FIG. 27, taking the replay C1 with the winning number “05” as an example, the replay C1 includes the replay 04 and the replay 05 as the winning combination, and means that the lottery is drawn at RT2 and RT3 (lottery RT). Further, when the replay C1 is won, there are a correct answer pressing order and an incorrect answer pressing order, the correct answer pressing order is left middle right, and if the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct answer pressing order, the replay 05 wins and other pressing orders If the stop switch 42 is operated in the (illegal answer pressing order), it means that the replay 04 wins. Furthermore, when Replay 05 wins, the gaming state shifts to RT3 (maintains RT3 during RT3), and when Replay 04 wins, the gaming state shifts to RT2 (maintains RT2 during RT2). Means that.

  Each of the small roles A01 to A06 and the small roles B01 to B12 has a correct answer pressing order and an incorrect answer pressing order, and an advantageous combination of symbols (small role with the largest number of payouts) is stopped in the correct answer pressing order. To be controlled. Further, when winning the small combination A01 to A06, a special figure is displayed as a stubby when the combination is not won in the order of incorrect answer pressing. A special view of the second embodiment will be described later.

FIGS. 29-31 is a figure which shows the combination lottery table in 2nd Embodiment, and has shown the winning number for every RT and every regulation number.
In the second embodiment, similarly to the first embodiment, non-RT and RT1 to RT7 are provided.

29 and 30, in non-RT, as replay, only replay A (replay 01 to replay 03) is drawn. In RT1, only replay B (replay 04) is drawn as a replay.
Further, in RT2, replays C1 to C6 are drawn, in RT3, replays C1 to C6 and D1 to D6 are drawn, and in RT4, replays D1 to D6 and E1 to E6 are drawn.

Furthermore, replays G1 to G6 and H1 to H6 are drawn at RT5, replays F1 to F6 are drawn at RT6, and replays G1 to G6 are drawn at RT7.
In this way, the types of replays that are drawn in accordance with RT are different.

Further, as shown in FIG. 31, in all RTs (including non-RT), a small combination A and a small combination B are drawn.
Here, for the small role A, the winning probability (set number “3200”) when the specified number is two is set higher than the winning probability (set number “55”) when the specified number is three. . Thereby, when the specified number is 2, the probability that a special figure (described later) is displayed is higher than when the specified number is 3.
On the other hand, for the small role B, the winning probability (set number “1600”) when the specified number is three is set higher than the winning probability (set number “500”) when the specified number is three. Yes.

In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 28, a special figure appears when the winning combination is not won at the time when the winning combination is incorrect when the small role A is won. On the other hand, at the time of winning the small role B, even if the answer is incorrect in the pressing order, the stubble at the time of non-winning of the role appears, but no special figure is displayed. In the second embodiment, the winning probability of the small combination A with the prescribed number of two is set high so that a special figure is likely to appear when the game is played with the prescribed number of two.
On the other hand, when a game is played with the specified number of three, the probability that the special figure is displayed is set low by setting the winning probability of the small role A to be low.
Furthermore, the small roles C to E are rare roles and are used for an ART lottery opportunity or the like.

Next, reel stop control will be described.
As described above, in the second embodiment, the number of symbol frames on the reel 31 is “16”, and the maximum number of moving frames during stop control is “3”. For this reason, with respect to four symbols arranged at intervals of four frames, the symbol can be stopped on the active line with “PB = 1”.
As shown in FIG. 23, in all the reels 31, four "bells", "replays", and "watermelons" are arranged at intervals of four frames. For this reason, these symbols have a “PB = 1” arrangement on all reels 31.

In FIG. 27, the replay A1 table used when the replay A1 is won determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay 01 is awarded within the range of the stop control of the reel 31. As shown in FIG. 24, since the replay 01 is “replay” − “watermelon” − “watermelon”, the replay 01 can be stopped at the active line by “PB = 1”.
The replay A2 table is used when the replay A2 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay 02 is won within the range of the stop control of the reel 31.
The replay A3 table is used when the replay A3 is won, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the replay 03 is won within the range of the stop control of the reel 31.

The replay B table is used when the replay B is won, and the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 04 is won within the range of the stop control of the reel 31.
As shown in FIG. 24, Replay 02, Replay 03, and Replay 04 are also combinations of symbols composed of “Replay” and “Watermelon”, and can be stopped at “PB = 1”.

The replay C winning has six types of replays C1 to C6, and different correct pressing orders from left middle right to right middle left are assigned one by one.
The same applies to other replay wins (replay D to H wins).
First, the replay C win is a win including replay 04 to replay 07, and replays 05 to 07 are awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and replay 04 is awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order. At the time of winning Replay C, replays other than Replay 04 to 07 are control roles for increasing the winning pattern.

The replay C1 table is used when the replay C1 is won (when the replay 04 and the replay 05 are overlapped). The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 04 is awarded when the order is incorrect.
In the game using the replay C1 table, when it is the first stop at the left, the correct answer is pressed at this time, so that the “watermelon” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped.

Next, during the middle second stop, the correct answer is pushed at this point. Therefore, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, “replay” is stopped. As a result, “watermelon”-“bell”-“replay” stops on the active line, and the replay 05 is won.
On the other hand, when the second stop is on the right, the push order is incorrect at this point. Therefore, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. Further, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. As a result, “watermelon”-“watermelon”-“watermelon” stops at the active line, and the replay 04 is won.

Further, when replay C1 is won, the middle first stop is in the order of incorrect pressing at this time, so “watermelon” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped.
Thereafter, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped and when the right reel 31 is stopped.
In addition, when the right first stop is performed, the order of the incorrect press is made at this time, so that the “watermelon” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped.
Thereafter, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped and when the middle reel 31 is stopped.

The replay C2 table is used when the replay C2 is won. When the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is the right / left middle correct pressing order, the replay 05 is won, and when the other incorrect pressing order is selected, the replay 04 is selected. The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so as to win a prize.
In the game using the replay C2 table, when it is the first stop at the left, the correct answer is pressed at this time, so that the “watermelon” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped.

Next, when the middle second stop is performed, the incorrect answer pressing order is set at this time. Therefore, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped.
On the other hand, after the first stop on the left and the second stop on the right, the correct answer is pushed at this point. Therefore, “replay” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped.
In the replay C2 table, the middle first stop and the right first stop are the same as when the replay C1 is won.

The replay C3 table is used when the replay C3 is won. When the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is the right / left correct pressing order, the replay 06 is won, and when the other incorrect pressing order is selected, the replay 04 is won. As described above, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined.
At the time of the middle first stop, the correct answer is the pushing order at this point, so “watermelon” is stopped at the active line.
Next, at the time of the second left stop, the correct answer is pushed at this time. Therefore, the “bell” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, “replay” is stopped. As a result, “bell”-“watermelon”-“replay” stops at the active line, and the replay 06 is won.

On the other hand, after the middle first stop, when pressing the second right stop, the push order is incorrect at this point. Therefore, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. Further, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. As a result, “watermelon”-“watermelon”-“watermelon” stops at the active line, and the replay 04 is won.
In addition, when the replay C3 is won, both the first left stop and the first right stop are in the incorrect pressing order at this time, so that the “watermelon” is stopped when each reel 31 is stopped.

The replay C4 table is used when the replay C4 is won. When the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is the right / right answer pressing order, the replay 06 is won, and when the other incorrect answer pressing order is selected, the replay 04 is won. As described above, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined.
At the time of the middle first stop, the correct answer is the pushing order at this point, so “watermelon” is stopped at the active line.
Next, at the second right stop, the correct answer is pressed at this point. Therefore, “replay” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped. As a result, “bell”-“watermelon”-“replay” stops at the active line, and the replay 06 is won.

On the other hand, after the middle first stop, when the second left stop is in the order of incorrect unpressing at this time, the “watermelon” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Further, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped.
In addition, when the replay C4 is won, both the first left stop and the first right stop are in the order of incorrect answer pressing at this time, so that each “watermelon” is stopped when each reel 31 is stopped.

The replay C5 table is used when the replay C5 is won, and when the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is the correct answer pressing order in the middle left and right, the replay 07 is awarded, and when the other answer is the incorrect answer pressing order, the replay 04 is awarded. As described above, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined.
At the time of the first stop on the right, the correct answer is the push order at this point, so “watermelon” is stopped on the active line.
Next, at the time of the second left stop, the correct answer is pushed at this time. Therefore, the “bell” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Further, “replay” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. As a result, “bell”-“replay”-“watermelon” stops at the active line, and the replay 07 is won.

On the other hand, after the first stop on the right, the middle second stop is in the order of incorrect release, so the “watermelon” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. Further, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped.
Further, when the replay C5 is won, both the left first stop and the middle first stop are in the order of incorrect pressing at this time, so that each “watermelon” is stopped when each reel 31 is stopped.

The replay C6 table is used when the replay C6 is selected, and when the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is right right / left left correct pressing order, the replay 07 is won, and when it is other incorrect answer pressing order, the replay 04 is won. Thus, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined.
At the time of the first stop on the right, the correct answer is the push order at this point, so “watermelon” is stopped on the active line.
Next, during the middle second stop, the correct answer is pushed at this point. Therefore, “replay” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped. As a result, “bell”-“replay”-“watermelon” stops at the active line, and the replay 07 is won.

On the other hand, after the first stop on the right, when the second stop on the left is in the incorrect pressing order at this time, the “watermelon” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Further, the “watermelon” is also stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped.
Further, when the replay C6 is won, both the left first stop and the middle first stop are in the order of incorrect pressing at this time, so that each “watermelon” is stopped when each reel 31 is stopped.

Further, when the replays D1 to D6 are won, similarly to the replays C1 to C6, the replays 08 to 10 are awarded in the correct answer order, and the replays 04 are awarded in the incorrect answer order.
Similarly, when the replays E1 to E6 are won, the replays 11 to 13 are awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and the replay 04 is awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order.
Further, when the replays F1 to F6 are won, the replays 14 to 16 are awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and the replays 11 to 13 are awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order.
Similarly, when replays G1 to G6 are won, replays 11 to 13 are awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and replays 17 to 19 are awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order.
Further, when the replays H1 to H6 are won, the replays 14 to 16 are awarded in the correct answer order, and the replays 17 to 19 are awarded in the incorrect answer order.

In FIG. 28, the small role A01 table is used at the time of winning the small role A01 (small role 03, small role 05, small role 06, small role 08). The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that other small roles are won or other special figures (to be described later) are displayed in the order of other incorrect presses.
In a game in which the small role A01 table is used, when the first left stop is reached, the correct answer is the pushing order at this time, so that the “replay” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped.

  In addition, after the first stop on the left and the second stop on the middle, the correct pressing order is obtained at this time, so that the “replay” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. Furthermore, the “watermelon” is stopped at the third stop on the right. As a result, “Replay”-“Replay”-“Watermelon” stops on the active line, and the small role 03 is won.

  On the other hand, after the first stop on the left and the second stop on the right, the pressing order is incorrect at this point, so that the “replay” is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “BAR” is stopped when it is possible to stop “BAR”. Here, ““ BAR ”of the middle reel 31 is provided as one (No. 06) as shown in FIG. 23, and therefore“ PB ≠ 1 ”. When “BAR” is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “Replay” − “BAR” − “Replay” is obtained, and the small role 08 is won.

On the other hand, if “BAR” cannot be stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “Replay” is stopped. As a result, “Replay” − “Replay” − “Replay” stops on the active line. This combination of symbols is the special diagram 1 in the second embodiment.
From the above, in the game using the small role A01 table,
"Replay"-"Replay"-"Watermelon" (push order correct answer, small role 03)
"Replay"-"BAR"-"Replay" (Incorrect push order, winning small role 08)
"Replay"-"Replay"-"Replay" (Incorrect push order, special figure 1)
Either.

  FIG. 32 is a diagram illustrating the special drawings 1 to 4 that are stubble at the time of non-winning of the combination at the time of incorrect answer in the pressing order when the small combination A01 to A06 is won in the second embodiment. When the winning combination is not won at the time of winning the small combination A01 to A06, the reel 31 is controlled to stop so that any one of these special drawings is displayed.

At the time of winning the small role A01, the middle-first stop is incorrect at this point, so when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped.
When both the left and right reels 31 are stopped, “BAR” is stopped if “BAR” can be stopped.
If both the left and right reels 31 can be stopped when “BAR” can be stopped, “BAR”-“Bell”-“BAR” stops on the active line, and the small role 05 is won. .

  On the other hand, “BAR” can be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped (second stop), but when “BAR” cannot be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, the right reel 31 is stopped. Sometimes the “bell” is stopped. Thereby, “BAR” − “BELL” − “BELL” (Special Figure 2) is displayed.

Further, “BAR” can be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped (second stop). However, when “BAR” cannot be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped, “BAR” is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. Stop "Bell". As a result, “bell”-“bell”-“BAR” (special drawing 4) is displayed.
Furthermore, when “BAR” cannot be stopped by the left or right second stop, “Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7” is stopped. In the third stop, the “bell” is stopped.
In any of the reels 31, “Red 7”, “White 7”, “Blue 7”, and “BAR” are arranged at intervals of 4 frames, so that “BAR” cannot be stopped. Any one of “red 7”, “white 7”, and “blue 7” can always be stopped.

From the above, during the middle first stop,
"BAR"-"Bell"-"BAR" (Minor 05)
"BAR"-"Bell"-"Bell" (Special Figure 2)
"Bell"-"Bell"-"BAR" (Special Figure 4)
"Bell"-"Bell"-"Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7" (Special Figure 4)
"Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7"-"Bell"-"Bell" (Special Figure 2)
It becomes.

In addition, when winning the small role A01, when the right first stop, the push order is incorrect at this time, so when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “bell” is stopped.
When both the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, “BAR” is stopped when “BAR” can be stopped.
If “BAR” can be stopped when both the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, “BAR”-“BAR”-“Bell” is stopped on the active line, and the small role 06 is won. .
On the other hand, “BAR” could be stopped when the left reel 31 was stopped (second stop), but “BAR” could not be stopped during the third and third stops. Stop "Bell". Thereby, “BAR” − “BELL” − “BELL” (Special Figure 2) is displayed.

In addition, “BAR” can be stopped at the middle second stop, but when “BAR” cannot be stopped at the third left stop, “bell” is stopped at the third left stop. As a result, “BELL”-“BAR”-“BELL” (Special Figure 3) is displayed.
Further, when “BAR” cannot be stopped by the left or middle second stop, “Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7” is stopped, and “Bell” is stopped at the third stop.

From the above, at the right first stop,
"BAR"-"BAR"-"Bell" (small role 06)
"BAR"-"Bell"-"Bell" (Special Figure 2)
"Bell"-"BAR"-"Bell" (Special Figure 3)
"Bell"-"Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7"-"Bell" (Special Figure 3)
"Red 7 / White 7 / Blue 7"-"Bell"-"Bell" (Special Figure 2)
It becomes.

As described above, when winning the small roles A01 to A06, when one of the six choices is pressed correctly, the small roles 01 to 03 are awarded with “PB = 1” and when the incorrect combinations are pressed. The winning of other small roles won or non-winning (special figure display) of the winning combination.
In particular,
When winning a small role A02: When pushing the correct answer (right and left), when winning the small role 02, when pushing the incorrect push order, when winning the small role 05, 06, or 09, or when displaying the special figure When winning the small role A03: Correcting the pushing order (middle) Left and right), small role 03 winning, push order incorrect answer small role 04, 06, or 07 winning or special figure display When winning small role A04: Pushing correct answer (middle right and left), small role 01 winning, push order Incorrect answer small role 04, 06, or 09 winning or special figure display When winning small role A05: When pushing correct answer (middle right and left), small role 02 winning, pushing order incorrect answer small role 04, 05, or 07 Winning or special figure display When winning a small role A06: When pressing correct answer (right middle left), small role 01 winning, pressing order incorrect answer small role 04, 05 or 08 winning or special figure display

In the case of winning the small combination A01 to A06, the small combination 01 to 03 wins in the correct answer in the pressing order, but these symbols are not in the “bell” alignment like the small combination 10, for example. In particular,
"Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Replay" (small part 01)
"Replay"-"Watermelon"-"Replay" (Minor 02)
"Replay"-"Replay"-"Watermelon" (Minor role 03)
One of them.

Here, at the time of winning the small role 01, “bell”-“bell”-“bell” stops on the lower line (invalid line). That is, although it is not the winning of the small combination 10, the combination of symbols corresponding to the small combination 10 stops at the lower line.
In addition, when the small role 02 is won, “replay” stops at “middle stage”-“lower stage”-“middle stage” (small V type).
Furthermore, when winning the small role 03, the “bell” stops at “upper”-“lower”-“upper” (V-shaped).
When the correct answer is pressed in the case of winning the small role A, it is possible to make it appear like, for example, a rare role or a chance by appearing the stop form as described above. Using this, for example, when a small role A is won, an ART lottery is performed.

  At the time of winning the small roles A01 to A06, any one of the small roles 01 to 03 and any two of the small roles 04 to 09 are overlapped. In each of the small roles 01 to 09, the payout number is set to the same number (for example, when the specified number is “3”, the payout number is 8). Accordingly, when the small combination A01 to A06 is won, the priority order of the numbers as shown in the first embodiment is not necessary, and it is arbitrary which small combination is preferentially drawn.

Further, for example, in the case of the middle first stop at the time of winning the small role A01 (when the push order is incorrect), as described above, the “bell” is stopped at the middle first stop. Since the “bell” of the middle reel 31 has the “PB = 1” arrangement, it can always stop at the active line.
Further, when the left and right reels 31 are stopped, as described above, when both can stop “BAR”, “BAR” is stopped. When both the left and right reels 31 can be stopped, “BAR” can be stopped, the small role 05 is won, and in other cases, a special figure is displayed.

Since the left and right reels 31 each have “BAR” symbols arranged at one location, the “BAR” symbols can be stopped at the effective line when the reels 31 are randomly stopped. The probabilities are all “1/4”. Therefore, at the time of the first stop during the winning of the small role A01 (when the push order is incorrect), the small role 05 can be won with a probability of “1/16”, but with the probability of “15/16” It can be a non-winning role.
The same applies to the first stop on the right.

On the other hand, after the first left stop at the time of winning the small role A01, at the second right stop (when the first stop pressing order is correct, when the second stop pressing order is incorrect), the “replay” of the left reel 31 and the right reel 31 is performed. Becomes “PB = 1”, and “BAR” of the middle reel 31 can be stopped at the effective line with a probability of “1/4”.
Therefore, when the first stop push order is correct and the second stop push order is incorrect, the small role 08 can be won with a probability of “1/4” and the non-winning of the role with a probability of “3/4”. It becomes.
In summary,
Correct answer in push order: Winning with “PB = 1” Correct answer in the first stop push order and incorrect second stop push order: Winning rate 1/4
First stop push order incorrect answer: winning rate 1/16
It becomes.
This also applies to other small roles A winning.

In addition, the stop position table when the small role B is won is as follows.
The small role B1 table is used when the small role B1 is won (overlapping winning of the small roles 10, 19, 27, and 35). The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that a small combination 19, 27, or 35 is awarded when the order 10 is won and the other is the wrong order of pressing.

  In the game using the small role B1 table, when it is the first stop on the left, since it is the correct order of pushing at this point, the “bell” symbol related to the left reel 31 of the small role 10 is stopped on the active line. Let Furthermore, when it is the middle second stop, the correct order of pushing is determined at this point. In this case, “bell” is stopped on the active line when the middle reel 31 is stopped, and “bell” is stopped on the active line when the right reel 31 is stopped. As a result, “bell”-“bell”-“bell” is stopped on the active line, and the small role 10 is won.

On the other hand, after the first left stop, when it is the second right stop, the incorrect answer pressing order is obtained at the second stop time. In this case, the symbol of the left reel 31 is “bell”, and the small combination 35 that is included in the winning combination of the small combination B01 is stopped on the active line. Therefore, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon” is stopped. The “watermelon” of the right reel 31 can be stopped by “PB = 1”.
Furthermore, at the middle third stop, when “Red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped, “Red 7” or “BAR” is stopped, and “Red 7” or “BAR” cannot be stopped. Stops the “bell”.

If “Red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped at the middle third stop, the small role 35 is won, and if it cannot be stopped, the role is not won.
Therefore, at the time of the first left stop at the time of winning the small role B01 and when the pressing order is incorrect, the bell of “bell”-“bell”-“watermelon” is displayed. In the case of winning the other small roles B02 to B12, this stubby is also displayed in the same way even when the left first stop and incorrect push order. As a result, the special drawings 1 to 4 are not displayed when the winning combination is not won when the small role B is won.

Also, in the game using the small role B1 table, when the middle first stop is made, the pushing order is incorrect at this point. Winning is possible.
When the left reel 31 is stopped, “red 7” is stopped when it can be stopped. If “red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, “red 7” or “BAR” is stopped. If “Red 7” can be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped, and “Red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, the small role 19 is won. . If the above symbols cannot be stopped when the left and right reels 31 are stopped, the “bell” is stopped.
Thus, at the time of the middle first stop, the small role 19 is won or the combination is not won. Further, when the winning combination is not won, the special drawings 1 to 4 are not displayed.

Furthermore, in a game in which the small role B1 table is used, when the right first stop is made, the push order is incorrect at this point, so when the right reel 31 is stopped, the “replay” is stopped, and the small role 27 Can be awarded.
When the left reel 31 is stopped, “red 7” is stopped when it can be stopped. Further, when “red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, “red 7” or “BAR” is stopped. If “Red 7” can be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped, and “Red 7” or “BAR” can be stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the small role 27 is won. . If the symbols cannot be stopped when the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, the “bell” is stopped.
As a result, at the time of the first stop on the right, the winning of the small role 27 or the non-winning of the winning combination (however, special figures 1 to 4 are not displayed).

Even when winning the small combination B02 to B12, the reel 31 is controlled to stop according to the winning of the small combination B01.
In particular,
When winning a small role B02: When pushing the correct answer (left middle right), when winning a small role 10, when pushing wrong order, when winning a small role 20, 28, or 36, or when not winning a small role When winning a small role B03: Correcting the right order (Right and left), when winning a small role 10, winning the wrong push order 21, 29, or 37, or winning a non-winning role for small role B04 Winning: when pushing right (right and left), winning 10 small roles , In the push order incorrect answer small role 22, 30, or 38 winning, or non-winning role of the small role B05 winning: in the correct push order (middle left and right), in the small role 10 winning, in the push order incorrect answer small role 11, 31 or 39 wins, or non-winning of a role When winning a small role B06: In the correct push order (middle left and right), in the small role 10 winning, in the push order incorrect answer small win 12, 32 or 40, or non-winning Winning small role B07 won: Small push time correct answer (middle right / left), small role 10 winning, push order incorrect answer small No. 13, 33, or 41, or non-winning of the role When winning the small role B08: In the correct push order (middle right and left), 10 wins in the small role, 14 in the push order incorrect answer, 34, 42 or 42 wins or the role Non-winning small role B09 winning: When pressing correct answer (middle right and left), small role 10 winning, incorrect pressing order small role 15, 23 or 43 winning, or non-winning small role B10 winning: pressing In case of correct answer (middle right and left), small role 10 winning, in order of incorrect answer, small role 16, 24, or 44 winning, or non-winning role in small role B11 winning: Small time in correct order of pushing (right middle left), small Winning a role 10, incorrect answer in push order Small winnings 17, 25, or 45, or a non-winning role in a role of small role B12 Winning: Correct answer in push order (right middle left), winning a small role 10, incorrect answer in push order Small role 18, 26 or 46 winning or no winning

FIG. 33 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state (RT) in the second embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 33, the second embodiment also includes non-RTs, RT1 to RT7, as in the first embodiment. Further, the gaming state group A, group B, and group C are the same as in the first embodiment. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that RT5 is an RT for preparing an ART and RT6 is an RT for ART. Others are the same as in the first embodiment.
First, when the RWM 61 is initialized, the gaming state is set to non-RT. In the non-RT, as shown in FIG. 32, the small role A is drawn, and the small role A is won, the incorrect answer is pressed, and when the special figure is displayed, the process proceeds to RT1.
In RT1, when Replay B (Replay 04) is drawn, this Replay B is won, and when Replay 04 wins, the process proceeds to RT2.

  In RT2, the replay C lottery is performed, and this replay C is won, and when one of the replays 05 to 07 wins in the correct answer pressing order (1/6), the process proceeds to RT3. On the other hand, if Replay C is won, but RT2 is maintained when Replay 04 wins in the incorrect push order (5/6).

In RT3, replays C and D are drawn. When Replay C is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and any of Replays 05 to 07 wins, RT3 is maintained. On the other hand, when the replay 04 wins in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT2.
In RT3, if Replay D is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and any one of Replays 08 to 10 wins, the process proceeds to RT4. On the other hand, when the replay D is won, but when the replay 04 is won in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT2.

In RT4, lotteries for replays D and E are performed. If Replay D is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and one of Replays 08 to 10 wins, RT4 is maintained. On the other hand, when the replay D is won, but when the replay 04 is won in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT2.
In addition, when the replay E is won at RT4 and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and any of the replays 11 to 13 wins, the process proceeds to RT5. On the other hand, when the replay E is won, but when the replay 04 is won in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT2.

In RT5, replays G and H are drawn. In RT5, when Replay G is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and one of Replays 11 to 13 wins, RT5 is maintained. On the other hand, although the replay G is won, if any of the replays 17 to 19 wins in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT7.
In RT5, if Replay H is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and any one of Replays 14 to 16 wins, the process proceeds to RT6. On the other hand, although the replay H is won, if any of the replays 17 to 19 wins in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT7.

In RT6, the replay F lottery is performed. In RT6, when Replay F is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and any one of Replays 14 to 16 wins, RT6 is maintained. On the other hand, although the replay F is won, if any of the replays 11 to 13 wins in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), the process proceeds to RT5.
In RT7, a replay G lottery is performed. At RT7, when the replay G is won and the correct answer is pressed (1/6) and one of the replays 11 to 13 wins, the process proceeds to RT5. On the other hand, although the replay G is won, if any of the replays 17 to 19 wins in the incorrect answer pressing order (5/6), RT7 is maintained.

In the above gaming state transition, in the second embodiment, the transition is made from non-RT to RT1, and further from RT1 to RT2. In RT2, the correct pressing order is notified when Replay C is won. Accordingly, if the stop switch 42 is operated in the notified pressing order, any one of the replays 05 to 07 wins and the process proceeds to RT3.
In RT3, the correct answer push order is notified when Replay D is won. Accordingly, if the stop switch 42 is operated in accordance with the notified pressing order, any one of the replays 08 to 10 wins and the process proceeds to RT4.

  In RT4, the correct answer pressing order is notified when Replay D or E is won. If the stop switch 42 is operated in accordance with the pressing order notified at the time of replay D winning, any one of the replays 08 to 10 wins and RT4 is maintained. If the stop switch 42 is operated in accordance with the pressing order notified when the replay E is won, any one of the replays 11 to 13 wins and the process proceeds to RT5.

When the specified number is 3, the winning probability (total value) of replay in RT4 is “43340” as a numerical value. On the other hand, the winning probability (total value) of replay in RT5 is “43340” as a numerical value. Therefore, the winning probability of both replays is set to be the same.
Here, according to the current rule, it is not possible to notify the push order of transition to RT where the winning probability of replay is low. However, by setting the replay winning probabilities of RT4 and RT5 to be the same, it becomes possible to notify the order of transition to RT5 during RT4.

When shifting to RT5, the push order of the stop switch 42 is not notified when the replay is won. As a result, when replay H is won, the incorrect answer is pressed with a probability of 5/6 and the process proceeds to RT7.
In the second embodiment, RT7 becomes non-ART (so-called normal game) (the number of replay winning probabilities when the specified number is 3 is “8979”), and ART lottery is performed. The ART lottery is similarly performed when staying at RT6 or RT7 during non-ART.

RT5 corresponds to the RT for the ART preparation, and RT6 corresponds to the RT for the ART (the replay winning probability number when the specified number is 3 is “43340”).
If an ART is won while staying at any one of RT5 to RT7, the ART is executed after a precursor (for example, determined by lottery) of a predetermined number of games. When staying at RT7 at the end of the precursor, when the replay is won, the push order of the stop switch that shifts to RT5 or RT6 is notified.
In addition, when staying at RT5, the order of pressing the stop switch 42 that shifts from RT5 to RT6 is notified at the time of replay winning.
Further, when the user stays at RT6, the ART is started while maintaining the RT6.

  In RT6 during ART, the pressing order of the stop switch 42 that maintains RT6 is notified when the replay is won. Also, when the small role B is won, the correct answer pressing order is notified. Furthermore, when winning a small role A, the correct answer pressing order is notified (regardless of whether it is ART or not).

  During the RT6 stay, if the ART is terminated, the correct pressing order is not notified when the small role B is won. Furthermore, the pressing order for maintaining RT6 is not notified when the replay is won. As a result, at the time of replay winning, it shifts to RT5 with a probability of 5/6 (incorrect answer pressing order), and further at RT5 to RT7 (non-ART) with a probability of 5/6 (incorrect answer pressing order) at the time of replay winning. Transition.

However, as will be described later, even after the ART is finished, the correct answer push order notification at the time of winning the small role A is continued.
In addition, during non-ART, the transition from RT7 to RT5 may occur, and further from RT5 to RT6, but even if the transition is from RT5 or RT6, when the non-ART is in progress, the stop switch is selected when the small role B is selected The order of pressing is not reported.

Furthermore, in the second embodiment, regardless of whether or not the ART is being executed, the correct pressing order is notified when the small roles A01 to A06 are selected. This is because in an actual game, the user stays at RT5 to RT7 and does not shift to RT1. As a result, the correct pressing order is notified when the small role A is won even during non-ART, so if the stop switch 42 is operated in accordance with the pressing order notification, the special figure is not displayed, so that the transition to RT1 is not possible. Absent.
If the player has displayed a special figure due to an operation mistake when winning the small role A, the process proceeds to RT1.
However, after the transition to RT1, if the transition is made from RT1 to RT2, the correct pressing order of the stop switch 42 will be notified at the time of replay winning even if it is in non-ART until the transition from RT2 to RT5. Therefore, it is possible to return to the gaming state group C.

  In addition, during the non-ART, RT1, RT2-RT4 stay, ART lottery is not performed. RT2 to RT4 have a higher probability of replay than RT7, which is a non-ART, so the base itself is set high, but in a gaming state (game state B group) where ART lottery is not performed. is there. Therefore, although a certain base is secured, the output rate does not exceed 1.

RT7 is an RT that draws an ART, although the replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3 and the base is lower than that of the gaming state group B. And if ART is won, it becomes possible to shift to RT5 and further to RT6. During ART, since the correct answer pressing order is notified when the small roles B01 to B12 are won, the small role 10 that is a payout of nine (prescribed number 3) can be won at the time of winning the small roles B01 to B12. Therefore, the rate is higher than “1” during ART.
Therefore, in the RT of the gaming state group C, it is possible to provide a wave in the exit rate. On the other hand, in the RT of the gaming state group B, since the winning probability of replay is high, the base is raised, but the participation rate does not exceed “1”.

In particular, in each RT of the gaming state B group RT2 to RT4, the non-winning probability (number) is set to “0” (see FIG. 31). On the other hand, in RT7 (non-ART (so-called normal game)), the number of non-winning probabilities is set to “34361”. For this reason, for example, if the game that is not won for the role becomes 3 consecutive games, the ART lottery is performed. If the game is 4 consecutive games, the ART lottery is performed unconditionally. While staying at RT7, there is a case where the ART is won, but in the RT of the gaming state group B, it is possible to eliminate winning the ART.
As described above, considering advantages / disadvantages including winning of ART, RT7 is more advantageous than RT2-RT4.

In the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, as a virtual game progress mode,
Virtual game progress mode x: a game mode in which a winning combination is always won in the game (when a role having a correct pressing order is won, the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct pressing order). y: A game mode in which the game is progressed with the pressing order of the stop switch 42 fixed or random, and the game is advanced so as to follow the pressing order when the pressing order is notified. Virtual game progress mode z: The pressing order of the stop switch 42 We will consider three game modes in which the game is progressed while fixing or random, and the game proceeds while ignoring the push order even when the push order is notified.

First, in the virtual game progress mode x, no special figure is displayed because there is no missing in the small role A winning in non-RT. Therefore, since non-RT continues for a long time, there is no transition to RT after RT1.
Further, in the virtual game progress mode y and the virtual game progress mode z, a special figure is displayed in non-RT, and the process may shift to RT1. Furthermore, in RT1, when Replay 04 wins, it moves to RT2 (game state B group).

  After the transition to RT2 (game state B group), in the virtual game progress mode y, until the transition to RT5, the correct pressing order is notified at the time of replay winning, so if the stop switch 42 is operated according to the notification, RT5 Transition. After the transition to RT5, the possibility of falling to RT7 increases. After that, the RT transition is repeated in the gaming state group C, but most stay at RT7. In addition, when the small role A is won during RT in the gaming state C group, the correct pressing order not to display the special figure is notified, so if the stop switch 42 is operated according to the notification, the special figure is displayed. Never happen. That is, there is no transition to RT1. Therefore, in the virtual game progress mode y, the game state C group remains.

On the other hand, in the virtual game progress mode z, when the transition is made to RT2, the probability of the transition from RT2 to RT3, from RT3 to RT4, and further from RT4 to RT5 is “1/6” as described above. May move to RT5 with a probability of "." Otherwise, the RT transition is repeated in the gaming state group B.
Temporarily, if it shifts to RT5 (game state C group), it will transfer between RT5-RT7, but if the small role A is elected in the game state C group and a special figure is displayed, it will transfer to RT1.
Therefore, in the virtual game progress mode z, most of the students stay in the game state B group, and the probability of staying in the game state B group is higher than that in the first embodiment. This is because, in the second embodiment, the correct repressing order of replay when shifting from RT3 to RT5 is set to 6 options.

In the virtual game progress mode z, the period of staying in the game state B group is increased, and it is rare to shift to RT5 or later. The non-RT to RT1 period output rate is designed to be about 33% to about 45%, and the RT2 to RT4 output rate is about 88% to about 95%.
For this reason, at least when the period from non-RT to RT1 and the stay period from RT2 to RT4 is 5 to 5, the average rate is about 60.5%, and even if it is assumed to be 1 to 9, it exceeds 55% .
Thus, when it is the virtual game progress mode z, the payout rate exceeds 55%.

Further, as described above, since the ART lottery is not performed in the non-RT to RT4 period, the payout rate does not exceed 100%.
For this reason, for example, when the small role A is won while staying at RT7, even if the player intentionally displays a special drawing while ignoring the push order notification and moves to RT1, the gaming state C group (RT5 ~ RT7) is more disadvantageous for the player than when staying. Therefore, the special figure display at the time of winning the small role A while staying in the gaming state group C is disadvantageous to the player (does not capture).

In the second embodiment, it is assumed that the player plays a game with the specified number of three. And when it is the prescribed number 3, the winning probability of the small combination A is set lower than in the case of the prescribed number 2. As a result, when the specified number is 3, the frequency in which the correct push order is notified in the small role A win is set low, and the trouble of frequently informing the fall prevention push order to RT1 is informed. Can be eliminated.
In this way, if the game is progressed with the prescribed number of three, the winning probability of the small role A is low, so the probability of shifting to RT1 which is disadvantageous for the player can be reduced.

On the contrary, when the specified number is 3, the probability of winning the small role B is set higher than when the specified number is 2.
Further, when the specified number is two, even if the small role B is won and the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct pressing order, the payout number is set to three. Therefore, it is advantageous for the player to advance the game with the prescribed number of three.

Further, in a state where the RWM 61 is initialized, such as when the slot machine 10 is shipped from the factory, the gaming state stays in a non-RT of the gaming state A group. In order to shift to RT1 in this non-RT, it is necessary to make a special figure appear when winning the small role A.
However, when the game is actually played, the winning combination of the small combination A is set to be low in order to reduce the probability that the special combination is displayed and the transition to RT1 is made.

  Therefore, in the second embodiment, when the prescribed number is two, the winning probability of the small combination A is set higher than when the prescribed number is three (FIG. 31). As a result, when it is desired to shift from non-RT to RT1 at the time of the first factory shipment, it is easier to play a game with a prescribed number of two, to win a small role A, and to display a special figure. Become. In this case, for example, in the image display device 23, the order of pressing for displaying the special symbol is notified, and the special symbol is surely displayed in the game by notifying that the specific symbol should be pressed. It can be displayed.

In this way, when the slot machine 10 is first installed in the hall, it is possible to start from RT1.
Furthermore, after the slot machine 10 is first installed in the hall, the hall clerk may move to RT5. While staying in the gaming state group B, a predetermined replay may be won according to the notification, and the process may be shifted to RT5.

  Further, when the slot machine 10 is installed in the hall, for example, when the hall business is ended while staying at RT1 to RT4, it may be left at the start of business the next day. It is also possible to start business after the transition to RT5. In this case, the hall clerk may shift RT from RT1 to RT5 according to the push order notification.

Furthermore, in the second embodiment, when a setting change is made (including re-setting of the same setting value), information related to ART is deleted (initialized), but gaming state, that is, information related to RT is deleted (initialized). do not do.
Therefore, the same RT is maintained before and after the setting change. For example, when the user changes the setting while staying at RT6 and executing ART, RT6 remains unchanged even after the setting is changed.

However, since information related to ART is initialized, it becomes a non-ART game after the setting is changed. Specifically, when the setting is changed, a signal to that effect is transmitted to the sub control board 80 and the RWM 81 of the sub control board 80 is also initialized. As a result, the information related to ART stored in the RWM 81 is cleared. Thereby, when a setting change is performed during ART, the production state (sub state) shifts to non-ART (so-called normal game).
In addition, even if the setting is changed when ART is not yet activated (during the sign) after winning the ART, the information related to the ART win is also deleted, so the data indicating that the sign is being deleted is also deleted. Is done.

  When the setting is changed to become non-ART in RT6 (replay high probability state) (in this case, strictly speaking, it is non-AT and replay high probability state RT), then replays 11 to 13 are awarded. Then, the process shifts to RT5, and when the replays 17 to 19 win in RT5, the process shifts to RT7 (replay normal probability state).

In addition, for example, when a rare combination is won, and if the winning probability varies depending on the set value, after the setting is changed, the lottery is performed with the changed set value.
Furthermore, for example, when a lottery is performed on the number of games at which the next ART is activated after the end of the ART and the number of games is stored (when the number of games is released), the setting is changed. The game count is cleared. Then, when the power is turned on after the setting is changed, the number of games is drawn again according to the changed setting value.

If RT is not shifted before and after the setting change, it is not necessary to shift to the gaming state group C after the setting change. For example, when the setting is changed so as to shift to non-RT or RT1, on the hall side, if the player wants to start the game in the gaming state C group after changing the setting, it is necessary to shift to the gaming state C group. Because there is.
Further, if the same RT is maintained before and after the setting change, it is possible to make it difficult to understand whether or not the setting has been changed.
In addition, not only said control but after setting change, you may transfer to non-RT or RT1, and you may alert | report the correct answer pushing order at the time of a replay winning until it transfers to the game state C group.

In addition, when a special figure is displayed in the gaming state group C and the game is shifted to RT1, a substantial penalty is incurred. This is because, during the stay from RT1 to RT4, the ART lottery is not performed, so even if a rare role is won during the stay from RT1 to RT4, the ART is not won.
In addition, as described above, in the case of the specification that activates the ART by digesting the specified number of games, a special figure is displayed in the game state C group, and when the state shifts to RT1, the game state C group is then returned to the game state C group. A penalty of not counting the number of games may be given.
Or, even during the stay of RT1 to RT4, even when a rare role is won, only the penalty of not performing the ART lottery is given, and even if it falls to RT1 with a special figure display, the game until the ART is activated during the period of RT1 to RT4 The number of times may be counted.

  Furthermore, when a special figure is displayed in the gaming state group C and the game is shifted to RT1, in the next ART, it is possible to reduce the number of notifications when winning the small role B, or to pay less than usual. It is also possible to impose a penalty such as terminating ART.

<Modification of Second Embodiment>
In the second embodiment, no special combination is provided, but an MB game may be executed by providing an MB as in the first embodiment. For example, “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / BAR” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / BAR” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / BAR” (64 ways) ). Thereby, when winning MB, MB can be awarded with “PB = 1”.
Further, as a small combination to be awarded during the MB game, a 13-piece combination and a 14-piece combination are provided as in the first embodiment. The symbol of the right reel 31 of these 13-piece combination and 14-piece combination is “ANY”.

Similarly to the first embodiment, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination is set so that 14 winning combinations can be won when the number priority is given, and 13 winning combinations can be awarded when the number priority is given.
In addition, when transferring to MB gaming during non-ART (non-RT, RT1 to RT4, RT7), one winning combination will be awarded when the winning combination is not won, and one will be awarded when the replay (A to E, G) is winning. A winning combination (number priority) or 14 winning combination (number priority) is awarded. in this case,
(1) Always win one winning combination,
(2) Always win 14 winning combinations,
(3) Depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42, various settings such as winning a single winning combination (for example, five pressing orders) or 14 winning combinations (for example, one pressing order) can be mentioned. Note that when the 14-game winning combination is reached, the upper limit of the number of payouts in the MB game is reached, and the MB game is terminated in the game.

  On the other hand, in the case of transitioning to the MB game during ART (RT5 to RT6), when winning a replay (Replay F, H), as in the first embodiment, a 13-card combination is awarded in a specific pushing order. The reel 31 is stopped and controlled so as to win 14 winning combinations (number priority) in other specific pressing order (number priority). Alternatively, as in the modification of the first embodiment, according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42, one winning combination (number priority), 13 winning combination (number priority), or 14 winning combination (number priority) is won. It may be.

  In the MB game during non-ART, the pressing order of the stop switch 42 is not notified regardless of the winning combination. On the other hand, when the game is shifted to the MB game during ART, when the replay is won in the first game, the pressing order for winning 13 winning combinations is notified. In addition, when the replay is won in the second game, the pressing order for winning 14 winning combinations is notified. As a result, as in the first embodiment, AT can be executed even during the MB game.

As mentioned above, although one Embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, For example, the following various deformation | transformation are possible.
(1) Freeze and pseudo game Freezing can be executed in the slot machine 10.
Here, “freezing” means delaying the progress of the game by pausing for a predetermined period of time. For example, receiving a medal, receiving an operation of the bet switch 40, operating the start switch 41 and the stop switch 42. Is to temporarily stop the function relating to the acceptance of the (reception of the stop operation of the reel 31). It is possible to execute such a freeze and output various effects during the freeze period.

Furthermore, a pseudo game may be executed during the freeze period.
Here, the main game and the pseudo game will be described.
The “main game” is the original function of the operation switch (the bet switch 40 is a function for inserting a medal to start the game, the start switch 41 is a function for starting the rotation of the reel 31 to start the game, stop The switch 42 is a game in which the function of stopping the rotating reel 31 within the range of the maximum number of moving frames based on the lottery result of the winning combination is effective as a game to obtain a game result. Point to.

  In this game, when the bet switch 40 is operated, medals are inserted, when the start switch 41 is operated, the reel 31 starts rotating (and the lottery is performed), and the stop switch 42 is operated. Sometimes, the reel 31 is stopped based on the winning lottery result, and the game result in the game is displayed by the combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped.

  On the other hand, during the freeze, no medals are inserted even if the bet switch 40 is operated, the rotation of the reel 31 does not start even if the start switch 41 is operated, and the reel 31 is operated even if the stop switch 42 is operated. The fact that the game result is not displayed (the reel 31 does not stop) or the like is a state in which the function of the operation switch is not effective for obtaining the game result in the game by proceeding with the game.

  The “pseudo game” is a game that is executed during the freeze. Unlike the main game, the function of at least one operation switch is to advance the main game and obtain a game result. Refers to games that are not valid. In particular, from the time when the start switch 41 is operated until the reel 31 becomes a constant speed and the operation of the stop switch 42 can be accepted (until the function of the stop switch 42 becomes effective for obtaining a game result). During this period, a pseudo game is executed.

  The timing of executing the pseudo game is, for example, the next game after the end of the precursor. The next game is notified to aim at a combination of symbols to be stopped by the pseudo game, for example, “7” alignment (ART action symbol).

When it is decided to execute the pseudo game, the pseudo game is started before the start of the main game in the next game.
When the player operates the start switch 41, a combination of lotteries is performed and a pseudo game is started. On the other hand, when the start switch 41 is operated, the rotation of the reel 31 is started. When the reel 31 is rotated by operating the start switch 41 and the game is executed before the main game in the game, the rotation of the reel 31 by the operation of the start switch 41 is simulated. It becomes a game.

Also, in the pseudo game, when the player operates the stop switch 42, the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 is changed to change the display state of the symbol different from the stop for displaying the game result. Control is performed so that a display state of a combination of symbols that does not indicate a result (a state close to the stop of the reel 31) is obtained. That is, although the function of the stop switch 42 is not effective for displaying the game result, the reel 31 is changed by the operation of the stop switch 42 as an opportunity.
At this time, the above-mentioned ART operation symbol is displayed with the operation of the stop switch 42 as an opportunity, thereby producing an effect of performing the ART. Further, an external signal may be transmitted when the ART operation symbol is displayed.

  In addition, during the pseudo game, when the ART operation symbol is displayed with the operation of the stop switch 42 as an opportunity, the ART operation symbol is the stop control using the stop position determination table in this game (the maximum number of moving symbols is three frames). Or the same control as in the case of 4 frames), but regardless of the operation timing of the stop switch 42 (even if the maximum number of moving frames exceeds 3 or 4 frames), the ART operation pattern is always valid. You may control the reel 31 so that it may display on a line. This is because the pseudo game is not limited by the maximum number of moving frames in this game.

Further, it is assumed that the display state of the symbol during the pseudo game is accompanied by fluctuation of the swing without the reel 31 (the symbol) completely staying at a certain position.
Here, “fluctuation fluctuation” means that a symbol repeats moving up and down with a constant amplitude (swing width). For example, the operation is such that after moving at a close position for a predetermined time, moving downward and holding at that position for a predetermined time, moving upward again and stopping for a predetermined time.

More specifically, it stays at that position for about 390 ms from the time the symbol is displayed, moves to the upper position, stays at that position for about 10 ms, then moves to the lower position and stays at that position for about 10 ms. , And so on, a pattern that stays about 390 ms at first, then repeats moving and staying for about 10 ms.
The reason for setting the first staying time to about 390 ms is to distinguish it from the stop for displaying the game result by setting the staying time to less than 500 ms.

  “Stopping the reel 31” means displaying a game result. Then, once the game result is displayed, the reel 31 displaying the game result cannot be changed again within the same game. Therefore, if the reel 31 is stopped during the pseudo game, then the reel 31 cannot be stopped and the game result cannot be displayed in this game.

Therefore, during the pseudo game, with the operation of the stop switch 42 as a trigger, the display state of the symbol accompanied by the fluctuation of the shake, which is a state close to the stop of the reel 31 (also referred to as temporary temporary stop or pseudo stop), is set. That is, the display state of the symbol during the pseudo game is not a stop indicating the game result. In other words, even if the stop switch 42 is operated, the reel 31 does not stop so as to show the game result in the game.
For this reason, the display state of the symbol during the pseudo game does not mean that the symbol combination corresponding to the combination has stopped on the active line, that is, the combination winning combination. Therefore, medals are not paid out as in the small role winning, and medals are not automatically inserted as in the replay winning.

  In this way, in the pseudo game, after all the reels 31 are set to the symbol display state, the player waits for the start switch 41 to be operated, and when the start switch 41 is operated, the pseudo game and freeze are performed. And all the reels 31 are changed again. Note that the operation of the start switch 41 at this time is an operation in a state where the function of the start switch 41 is not effective for obtaining a game result, and the player ends the pseudo game by himself (freezing is performed). (Cancel or cancel) operation. Further, the re-change of the reel 31 is controlled so that the rotation start timing of the re-change varies for each reel 31 by a random delay. Thereby, control is performed so as not to assist in pushing in the game after the pseudo game.

(2) Myslo game It is also possible to execute a myslo game using the slot machine 10.
Here, “Myslo game” has the following contents.
The slot machine 10 stores a player's game history (the number of games, the number of ART wins, etc.). At the end of the game, the slot machine 10 displays the game history on the image display device 23 as a two-dimensional code.

  The player reads the two-dimensional code with the player's own portable communication terminal (such as a smartphone equipped with a CCD capable of reading the two-dimensional code) and accesses a server computer operated by the manufacturer of the slot machine 10 or the like. The server computer stores the latest game history of the player. Further, the server computer issues a password to the mobile communication terminal held by the player. The player can take over the game history by entering the password at the start of the game and starting the game.

In such a myslo game, the game history is stored in the RWM 81. When the RWM 81 is simply initialized when the power is turned on / off, there are a case where the game history is set to be erased and a case where the game history is set not to be erased.
Further, at the time of initialization when the setting change is started, the game history is deleted including the game history.

For example, if the game history is deleted when the power is turned on, the behavior when the setting change is started is the same as when the setting change is started. It is possible not to inform the player of this.
In addition, if the game history is uniformly erased when the power is turned off, the player will be disadvantaged if an unintended power cut occurs during the game. Therefore, the time is counted from the time when the power is turned off, and if a predetermined time (for example, 2 hours) has elapsed, the game history is erased when the power is turned on, and if the predetermined time has not elapsed, the game history is retained when the power is turned on. It may be.
This game history is not limited to the above-mentioned myslo game, but for example, the number of executions related to the game displayed on the image display device 23 (the number of normal games, the number of ART games, the number of games indicating the chance zone) is controlled in the same manner. Can be.

(3) Other Examples Regarding Main Control Board 60 In the present embodiment, the number of main control boards 60 is one, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of separate bodies may be used (main control boards 60A and 60B). ...). Each main control board independently includes a CPU, an RWM, and a ROM. Moreover, when two main control boards 60 are provided, for example, both are comprised so that transmission / reception of information is possible by bidirectional | two-way communication. Then, any one of the main control board 60 and the sub control board 80 is connected so as to perform one-way communication from the main control board 60 to the sub control board 80.

Further, when a plurality of main control boards 60 are provided, it is possible to arbitrarily set which main control board 60 and which game peripheral device are connected in FIG. For example, the main control board 60 is composed of a first main control board 60A and a second main control board 60B, and the first main control board 60A is in charge of the lottery of the role, the reel 31 stop control, and the ART control. The second main control board 60B is in charge of control such as medal insertion (betting), payout, storage, and settlement. In this case, a start switch 41, a stop switch 42, a motor 32, and the like are connected to the first main control board 60A, and a bet switch 40, a settlement switch 43, and the like are connected to the second main control board 60B.
Further, when a plurality of main control boards 60 are provided, all the main control boards 60 are accommodated in the board case and caulked.

(4) In the first embodiment, an SB is drawn by lottery during an MB game, and when the SB is won, the MB game is terminated (punctured). The reason for setting in this way is to provide an opportunity to moderately puncture and adjust the exit rate when shifting to MB games during non-ART. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the SB lottery may not be performed during the MB game. In this case, only replay is drawn in the MB game. In this way, since there is no puncture during the MB game, for example, in the MB game during non-ART, there is a high possibility that a single winning combination game will continue for 14 games.
On the other hand, during the MB game, only SB may be drawn, and replay may not be drawn.
In addition, during the MB game, only the winning flag relating to the small role may be turned on without performing the lottery of the winning combination.

  (5) In the first embodiment, at the time of SB winning in the MB game, one winning combination (number priority) or 14 winning combination (number priority) is won according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and one winning combination may be won regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42 (the number priority is always given).

  In addition, when the replays A to E or H are won during the MB game, one winning combination is won regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42 (the number priority is always given). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42, the number priority (one winning combination) or the number priority (14 winning combination) may be executed. In this case, in the MB game during non-ART, it is not necessary to notify the pressing order of the stop switch 42 for winning the 14-piece combination at the time of replay winning, but it is also possible to notify it. In this way, even during non-ART, if a replay is won during an MB game, the player can be given an opportunity to win 14 winning combinations. Furthermore, as in the modification of the first embodiment, one of the one-piece combination, the thirteen-piece combination, or the four-piece combination may be awarded according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42.

  Further, any one of the replays A to E or H may be drawn in the RT during the ART. When these replays are won, the number priority (13 winning combinations) is given according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 or The number priority (14 winning combinations) may be executed. Alternatively, it is possible to always win 14 winning combinations with priority on the number of sheets. Furthermore, as in the modification of the first embodiment, one of the one-piece combination, the thirteen-piece combination, or the four-piece combination may be awarded according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42.

(6) In the first embodiment, the special figure display at the time of winning the small role B is shifted to RT1, and in the second embodiment, the special figure display at the time of winning the small role A is shifted to RT1. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, an SB “PB ≠ 1” may be provided in the second embodiment, and a special figure may be displayed when the SB is missed.
(7) In the first embodiment, the prescribed numbers 2 and 3 are provided as in the second embodiment, and when the prescribed number is 2, the winning probability of the small role B may be set high. Then, when it is desired to shift from non-RT to RT1 at the time of factory shipment, it is possible to play a game with a prescribed number of two and win the small role B as soon as possible.
In the case where a plurality of types of prescribed numbers are provided, for example, the prescribed numbers may be set to one and three.

  (8) In the second embodiment, it is possible to play a game with either the prescribed number 2 or 3. Here, a certain restriction may be provided when a game is played with a prescribed number of two. For example, when the number of stored sheets is two, when the three-bet (max bet) switch 40b is operated, control may be performed so that two pieces cannot be inserted. Alternatively, two sheets can be inserted, but a freeze is set for a predetermined time at the same time as the two sheets are inserted, and the start switch 41 cannot be operated during the freeze period. By controlling in this way, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the player operates the 3-bet switch 40b without noticing the two stored numbers and starts the game. By setting so that the game is not easily started with the prescribed number of two, the probability that the special figure is displayed can be further reduced.

  However, in order to make an early transition from non-RT to RT1, it is desirable to play a game with a prescribed number of two cards. Therefore, when two maintenance bets are set, the game can be set to start with a prescribed number of two. . With this setting, when a game is intentionally performed with a prescribed number of two, the game can be easily started.

(9) In this embodiment, two RTs (non-RT and RT1) as the gaming state A group, three RTs (RT2 to RT4) as the gaming state B group, and three RTs (RT5 to RT7) as the gaming state C group Was provided. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and each gaming state group may further increase or decrease the number of RTs.
For example, the RT of the game state group A may be set to only RT1, and may be set to be RT1 when the RWM 61 is initialized. And when a special figure is displayed in RT1, you may make it transfer to RT2.
When the game state A group is composed of a plurality of RTs, the number of RTs that can be transferred to the RT of the game state B group is one. Similarly, when the gaming state group B is composed of a plurality of RTs, the number of RTs that can be transferred to the RT of the gaming state group C is one.

For example, if the gaming state group B is composed of two RTs, it is easy to shift to the gaming state group C. However, if the correct answer push order is 6 choices when replaying is performed, the transition probability to the gaming state group C is increased. It can be set to “1/36”.
Further, if the number of RTs in the gaming state group B is set to 4 or more and the RT transition is made at the time of the replay winning in which the correct answer pressing order is 6 choices, it is possible to make the transition difficult depending on the gaming state group C.
Furthermore, the game state group C may be provided with at least two RTs (RT for non-ART) having a normal replay probability and RT (for ART) having a high probability of replay. Not.

  In this embodiment, non-ART and ART are provided. However, the operation information (push order, etc.) of the stop switch 42 that is advantageous to the player is not notified / not notified. A high notification game with a high notification frequency (for example, RT5 in the first embodiment) and a low notification game (for example, RT7 in the first embodiment) with a notification frequency of the operation information lower than that of the high notification game may be configured. . Here, when the notification frequency is “0”, it is a non-notification game (non-ART), so the low notification game is a superordinate concept of the non-notification game. Similarly, when the notification frequency is “1”, it is a notification game (ART), so the high notification game is a superordinate concept of the notification game.

  (10) In the above embodiment, the RT fluctuation is not performed before and after the MB game and the SB game, but the RT fluctuation may be performed. For example, after MB game and SB game, there is a case where a transition is made to an RT that is more advantageous than the previous RT, a case where a transition is made to a disadvantageous RT, or a case where a transition is made to another RT that does not cause any advantage / disadvantage. It is done.

  (11) In the present embodiment, the MB game notifies the push order according to the winning combination so as to be most advantageous to the player. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and which push order is to be notified during the MB game may be determined according to the acquired number of games, the remaining number of games acquired, the number of games, and the like during the MB game. For example, when it is possible to win 14 winning combinations in the first game, the pressing order may be notified so that the 14 winning combinations are won.

(12) For example, in the MB game of the first embodiment, when the number priority is given, 14 winning combinations are won, and when the number priority is given, 1 or 13 winning combinations are won. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is also possible to further increase the number of winning combinations with different payout numbers (for example, to provide 11 winning combinations and 12 winning combinations) so that winning can be set according to the number priority.
For example, the relationship between the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the winning combination,
Left middle right: 1 sheet left / right middle: 1 sheet middle left / right: 11 sheets middle right left: 14 sheets right left middle: 12 sheets right middle left: 13 sheets Up to 6 options can be set.
In this case, as described in the above-described embodiment, it is necessary to set the number of symbols related to the number performing the number priority to the same number.
In the above example, it is necessary to set the same number of symbols for the 1-sheet combination, the 11-sheet combination, the 12-sheet combination, and the 13-sheet combination.
Here, during the MB game, the winning flags of all the small roles 01 to 38 are turned on without depending on the lottery of the winning combinations, and one winning combination can be displayed based on the number priority at the time of the first stop on the left (the first implementation described above). Furthermore, the symbol combination displayed may differ depending on whether the second stop is in the middle or on the right even in the same single combination. For example, at the time of the first stop on the left, the replay symbols are displayed with priority on the number. Next, it is possible to display the symbol combinations of the small roles 14 to 17 at the middle second stop, and to display the symbol combinations of the small roles 37 at the second right stop. Further, the number of ART games added may vary depending on whether the small combination 14 to 17 or the small combination 37 is displayed during ART. Thereby, even if it is a pushing order with few payout numbers, the expectation from which the privilege based on a pushing order differs can be given with respect to a player. Further, the number of ART games added may be different depending on the pressing position, not limited to the pressing order.

(13) Furthermore, in the case of giving priority to the number and the number of sheets, for example, in the MB game, the one-piece combination, the 13-piece combination, or the 14-sheet combination is won, but not limited to this, various payout numbers are set. can do. For example, it is possible to set the number of payouts of the winning combination related to the number priority to 12 and to set the payout number of the winning combination related to the number priority to 1, 8, etc.
Further, although the minimum payout number during the MB game is set to one, the present invention is not limited to this, and the minimum payout number during the MB game may be the same as the inserted number. For example, in the first embodiment, when the winning lottery result during the MB game is not won, the number of payouts (1) is smaller than the number of inserted (3), so a game disadvantageous to the player is provided. there's a possibility that. Therefore, during the MB game, by setting the payout number to be paid out at least as much as the inserted number, the player can play the MB game with peace of mind.

  (14) In the first embodiment, when an MB game is executed at RT6 (in preparation for ART), when a replay G is won, a 13-piece combination or a 14-piece combination is won according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 ( FIG. 20). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when an ART is being prepared, even if an MB game is executed, one payout may be performed. In this case, it may be set so that a single winning combination wins in the full pressing order (same as when not winning), or the pressing order and winning combination are allocated as shown in FIG. If there is not, the pressing order of one sheet combination may be notified.

(15) In the second embodiment, three sheets are inserted when the 3 (max) bet switch 40b is operated. However, for example, the maximum number may be set to be different for each RT. For example, in a specific RT, a setting may be made so that two cards are inserted even when the 3 (max) bet switch 40b is operated.
(16) In the second embodiment, each RT may be set so as to have a defined number. For example, in a specific RT, only three sheets are inserted, and in another specific RT, only two sheets are set.

(17) In the present embodiment, the gaming state group B can be set as an additional specialized zone in ART. For example, when the winning lottery is won during ART, in a game in which the special figure display is possible, the order of pushing the special figure to be displayed and the symbol to be pressed are notified. Then, when the special figure is displayed, the process proceeds to RT1, and when the process shifts from RT1 to the gaming state B group (RT2 to RT4), the ART is added during the stay of the gaming state B group (the number of games, The number of payouts etc.) may be determined. Further, in RT2 to RT4, the expected additional value may be the same value, or may be different expected values (for example, RT4 has the highest expected expectation).
Of course, if the extra lottery is not won, it is a matter of course that the ART is not added even if the game is shifted to RT1 due to a push order error or the like and then the game state B group is transferred.

(18) In this embodiment, the slot machine 10 is taken as an example of a gaming machine, but the present invention can also be applied to a ball game machine, an enclosed game machine, or the like.
(19) This embodiment and the above-described various modifications are not limited to being implemented alone, and can be implemented in appropriate combination.

The first solving means (second embodiment)
It has a role lottery means (63b) for drawing a role,
With multiple types of RT as gaming state,
As multiple types of RT,
The first RT (non-RT);
A second RT (RT1) transitioning from the first RT;
A third RT (any RT in the gaming state group C) that can be transferred directly from the second RT or via another gaming state;
In any gaming state, it is possible to play with N1 (2 cards) or N2 (3 cards) inserted game media,
The role lottery means
A lottery of the roles is performed so as to have a specific winning (winning of small roles A01 to A06)
The winning probability of the specific winning is when the number N1 of game media (each winning number is “3200”) is more than the number N2 of gaming media (each winning number is “55”). Is also set high,
In the 3rd RT, when the number of game media inserted is N2, it is more advantageous for the player than when the number of game media inserted is N1 (the winning probability of the small role B is high, and the small role 01 to the small role) 10 is the number of payouts when winning a prize)
When the specific winning is made, depending on the operation mode of the stop switch, the symbol combination a (special symbol) or b (the symbol combination of any of the small roles 01 to 09 at the time of the small role A winning) is selected. Can be stopped,
In the first RT or the third RT, when the symbol combination a is stopped, control is performed so as to shift to the second RT.
