Description

  The present invention is a pachislot that uses medals and coins as a game medium, a pachislot that uses a pachinko ball as a game medium, and a substitute coin (game value, The present invention also relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine (cylinder type gaming machine) that performs a game according to a gaming value).

  The present invention also provides a program (for example, game software) in which a control step or control procedure for realizing the gaming method is recorded on an information storage medium such as a semiconductor memory, a memory stick, an HD (hard disk), or a blue ray disk. ) Is also related to itself.

  In recent years, games using a swivel type game machine called a pachislot machine have been actively performed in conventional pachinko halls and pachislot halls. There is also a spinning-type game machine called a pacilot (or parrot) that performs the above-described spinning-type game using a pachinko ball used in a pachinko machine (bullet-type game machine) as a game medium. In video game machines such as amusement facilities, and PCs and game machines of general households via the Internet, a substitute game called a token (ie, “game medium”) is used to make a revolving game. A simulation game is being simulated. In the near future, it is also planned that the game value of electronic data and tokens equivalent to them will be recorded on an IC card and used for games without using medals or coins in the near future. Yes.

  For example, in the above-described normal game of a spinning-reel game machine, when a player operates a start lever after inserting a predetermined number of game medals (game media or tokens), a bonus, a plurality of small roles, or a replay is performed at that timing. Perform an internal lottery (or “internal lottery”) for a combination (replay) and rotate multiple drums (mostly three or four reel drums) from top to bottom to While starting a variable display game that fluctuates a plurality of symbols displayed (drawn) on the trunk (usually, the plurality of symbols are drawn on a reel tape and pasted on each drum), When the player operates the stop button corresponding to each drum, and the symbols such as bells, watermelons and cherries won internally are stopped and displayed on the active line in a predetermined combination, a prize is awarded. 1 When about one game medal is paid out, when the replay symbol is displayed on the active line and replay (regame) is activated, the game medal is not inserted (or the previous game number is inserted as it is) And re-playing state where the next normal game can be performed.

  In particular, depending on the result of the internal lottery of a normal game, a bonus combination (one or two types of special character continuous operation device) is won internally, and a specific symbol (for example, a red 7 symbol or a blue 7 symbol) is generated by a reel drum stop operation. When they are all stopped and displayed on the active line, they enter the big bonus game mode (BB game mode: continuous action device), which is the most advantageous game mode for the player, and a large number of game medals are acquired at once. it can. In addition, when a regular bonus (a kind of special character) is won and the bar symbols are arranged on the active line as a specific symbol, a regular bonus game (RB game) is executed, which does not reach the BB game. In any case, for a player, the establishment of these bonus games is the most important concern in the revolving game. When a bonus game is won or released as a result of executing the internal lottery, a bonus flag is set in a data storage area such as RAM or RWM and stored, thereby storing predetermined specific symbols (7 symbols and bars). The flags are carried over to the subsequent variable display game until the symbols are ready.

  By the way, the conventional swivel-type game machine (No. 4) is relatively high in euphoria, and in order to suppress it, a law on customs business regulations and optimization of business (final revision: May, 1995) Law No. 55 of the 30th) was enforced and applied to the latest spinning machine called Unit 5.

  For example, in the No. 5 spinning cylinder game machine, the play rate (short term, medium term, long term) is regulated very finely by the rules, and in the big bonus game (BB game), the number of game medals obtained, etc. The game ends when the number exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 360 or 480). In the regular bonus game, although it does not reach the BB game, the game ends when about a few dozens are obtained. In other words, the upper limit of the number of payouts in a single bonus game and the rate of increase in medals per game are limited to low due to the rule revision.

  In addition, the bonus stock function for continuously releasing bonuses (continuous change), which should be said to be the biggest feature of the conventional swivel-type game machine (No. 4), is also prohibited by the same rule. The device and performance assigned to the machine itself are lost, and of course, the gameability and gambling are extremely lowered, and the player (slotter) who has been a good customer is moving away from the customer.

  However, some restrictions have been relaxed even in such a strict regulatory situation, and as a result of the new innovations that accompany it, the ART function (assist replay time function) or third bonus is A slot machine with AT function (assist time function) was developed. This ART function, etc. is a symbol stop operation procedure (stop switch operation sequence or bonus) for winning a small role that was won internally by lottery in a high-probability replay state that is easy to win replay (ie, a state that is difficult to lose). This is a function for notifying the operation timing for aiming the color of the design) with a liquid crystal display or voice, and assisting (assisting) the button operation. At present, the ART machine is the mainstream of the No. 5 slot machine.

  And especially recently, instead of increasing the number of winnings by the above-mentioned big bonus or regular bonus by the main control, the desired timing (the timing won by the AT lottery by the rare small role, the number of digest games is the number of ceiling games) ) (Actual bonus, third bonus) is activated, and the push order is notified with a high probability by informing the push order, and a wave of balls is created. Proceeding further, maintaining a high probability re-playing state by internally winning 2 types of big bonuses (2 types of BB) that won't increase or decrease even if a prize is won. Many models that control balls have been hit, and a series of revolving game machines with various game characteristics have appeared one after another.

  By the way, as the original art of the ART newly developed by the applicant (Japanese Patent No. 4428725), when a single symbol small part is elected internally and the operation procedure of the stop button is correct, a plurality of predetermined symbols (for example, a bell symbol or a cherry symbol) are obtained. There are things that win on the line, but stop on a small number of lines with incorrect answers. Then, when the AT (assist function) is won, the player is notified of the correct operation procedure, and a large difference is made in the number of medals obtained. Furthermore, since a large number of medals can be obtained without reducing hand-held medals during RT (high probability re-playing state), it is possible to create a wave of balls and improve euphoria.

  In addition, as an original technology developed by the applicant, there is a technique in which during the freeze production after the start operation, a replay player is pseudo-successively won by a stop button operation, and an effect of lighting the number-of-inserts LED is performed (patent) No. 5045860, Japanese Patent No. 5077902, Japanese Patent No. 5131669, Japanese Patent No. 5167476).

  However, with the former ART function alone, the maximum number of net increase per game is about 2.5, and in order to obtain 10,000, which is the standard for a large number of medals, it is about 4000 continuously for a minimum of about 5 hours. You have to play a game.

  With the latter freeze production technique, the player has the illusion that it is the original game, and does not realize that it is just a production.

  A first object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine or the like that allows a player to easily recognize that it is a freeze effect. Another object is to provide a gaming machine or the like that can give excitement and excitement to the player.

  Another object is to provide a gaming machine or the like that does not forget to return the inserted medal when the player pays out the credits, and does not miss the winning of the re-gamer (especially the bell replay player). . An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine or the like in which a player does not feel uncomfortable with the winning display mode and operation method for a small role or a replay role in a normal game and an AT game. The present invention is equipped with a conventional bonus combination such as BB and RB and an ART function or AT function as a third bonus, and can further increase the number of net increase per game, and the number of assist functions can be increased. It is to provide a gaming machine or the like that can be increased at a stretch. The present invention provides a gaming machine and the like that can avoid an illegal winning of a push forward (a push forward small role or a push forward replay game) even if a sub-control unit that controls display of a navigation image is tampered There is to do.

  In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 1 starts a symbol display game in which a plurality of types of symbols having a plurality of symbols on its outer periphery are rotated, and corresponds to each reel. When the stop switch provided is operated in the operation order corresponding to the pressing order determined in the lottery of the combination, the corresponding reel is stopped and the symbols derived when all the reels are stopped are displayed. In the gaming machine in which a winning is generated according to the display result, the symbol display game includes a normal game state, a specific game state that is advantageous over the normal game state by informing the operation sequence, and the normal game. The combination determination means for determining the combination by lottery, which is executed at least in the determined gaming state that is triggered by the end of the state, and the number of games and the initial value are set in the symbol display game in the determined gaming state The item determining means for determining the first item or the second item based on the combination determined by the combination determining means during the symbol display game in the normal gaming state, and the first item and the second item individually Display means for displaying on, increasing means for increasing the number of games, updating means for updating the initial value, transition from the determined gaming state to the normal gaming state, or from the determined gaming state to the specific gaming state A game state transition means for causing the increase means to increase the number of games based on the first item, and the symbol display game in the determined gaming state is based on the increased number of games. And the updating means updates the initial value based on the second item during the symbol display game in the determined gaming state, and the transition means Before terminating the status symbol display game, triggered by the initial value updated satisfies a predetermined condition, and wherein the shifting the to a particular game state.

  A gaming machine according to a second aspect of the present invention is the gaming machine according to the first aspect, wherein when the transition means ends the symbol display game in the determined gaming state, the updated initial value satisfies the predetermined condition. If not satisfied, a transition to the normal gaming state is made.

  A gaming machine according to a third aspect of the present invention is the gaming machine according to the first or second aspect, wherein the updating means is configured to add the second item during the symbol display game in the determined gaming state, The initial value is updated based on the combination determined by the combination determining means.

  A gaming machine according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the gaming machine according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the updating means replaces the remaining second item with a symbol display game of a next determined gaming state. It is characterized by carrying over inside.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, firstly, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that gives the player a great excitement and excitement.

  Second, when the player pays credits, if the re-gamer wins, a warning is notified, so the player does not miss the re-game win. According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, in the RT state in which the bonus combination is won internally, the target small combination with a large number of payouts can be won frequently without being lost, so that compared to the conventional case, 1 It is possible to increase the number of net increase per game. Note that the same effect can be obtained even if the loss is minimized. In addition, it is possible to increase the number of activation of the assist function at a stretch.

Definition:
In the present specification, the fact that the combination of symbols relating to replay is displayed on the winning line is used for convenience as “winning a replaying role”. However, the original “winning” means that a predetermined combination is displayed as a combination necessary for acquiring a game medal or the like for the symbol.

  The push combination is a combination in which a winning purpose combination and an inhibitory combination are won at the same time, and the inhibition combination includes one or more types. The winning combination is awarded when the stop button is operated in the winning push order notified by the notifying means, and when the stop button is operated in an operation order different from the winning push order, Will not win. That is, the inhibiting role is a role for inhibiting the winning of the winning objective role. For example, in the case of a push order bell combination, three types of bell small combination (15 payouts) for the winning objective combination, one small combination (1 payout) for the first obstruction small combination, and two small pieces for the second obstruction small combination When five of the winning combinations win simultaneously, and the stop button is operated in the order of winning, the bell winning combination is won by stopping the bell symbol on the active line. On the other hand, if the first stop operation is not in the winning push order, the symbol of the first inhibiting small role is stopped on the active line, so that either of the first inhibiting small roles wins or is not won (missed). Become. If the first stop operation is in the winning push order and the second stop operation is not in the winning push order, the symbol of the second inhibiting small combination is stopped on the active line, and then the second inhibiting small combination wins. It should be noted that the payout for the second inhibiting small combination may be one or may be missed. In addition, there is a push order replay role as a push order.

Basic example:
As an example of the gaming machine or the like according to the present invention, a rotating type gaming machine is taken up, and this example explains in detail the basic configuration and basic operation of the rotating type gaming machine.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a swivel-type gaming machine ((A) is an overall view, (B) is an upper front view), FIG. 2 is a right side view thereof, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a design panel.

  Reference numeral 1 denotes a swivel-type gaming machine body generally referred to as a “pachi-slot machine”, which is roughly divided into a housing 1a containing a rotating drum (drum unit 2) and a front door 1b (see particularly FIG. 2). .

  The front door 1b is a main part that should also be called the face of a swivel-type game machine, and a unique metallic feeling is required for the creation of a high-class feeling and the demand for design, ordinary chrome plating, dark chrome plating, hard By adding gold plating, metalizing (plating), satin tone (plating), etc. to the resin material, the appearance is gorgeous and profound.

  A transparent panel 21 is fitted on the front surface of the front door 1b. A design panel 22 is attached to the front door 1b inside the transparent panel 21.

  The design panel 22 has an upper surface portion 22a to which a display effect device 11 (or a video display device) that performs various effects according to the game situation is fixed with screws, and an inner surface portion on which a window portion 3 (design display window) is formed. 22b and the lower surface portion 22c to which the light emitting display device (display LED block 4) is attached form a bottom surface portion 22d that is bent inward of the housing 1a, and a left side surface portion 22e and a right side surface portion 22f that connect the left and right of the bottom surface portion 22d. As a result, a substantially box-shaped space is formed (in particular, see FIG. 3).

  On the bottom surface portion 22d, there are three-dimensionally projected decorations 23 or three-dimensional electric driving objects 24 driven in accordance with the progress of the game (for example, in relation to an internal winning combination in order to give a sense of expectation). There are motorized toys and doors that can be used for productions, bumpers that move up and down, or ships that swing, etc. However, there are cases where productions that are not related to the internal winning combination are simply performed.)

  The front door 1b and the design panel 22 are formed by integrally molding a resin material with a mold. Generally, the molding method includes injection molding, extrusion molding, foam molding, vacuum molding, and the like, and the resin material is ABS. Various general-purpose resins such as these are used.

  Reference numeral 2 denotes a drum portion (reel drum) built in the housing 1a, which is composed of three drums: a left drum 2a, a middle drum 2b, and a right drum 2c. Inside each of the drums, a rotating part symbol display LED (not shown) is provided, which emits light (turns on and blinks) or turns off according to various effects. That is, each drum is a symbol row that displays a plurality of symbols in a row from top to bottom, and in this case, a variable display game for changing three symbol rows (plural rows) is started. Note that, in the case where symbols are displayed using a liquid crystal display device or the like instead of each drum, this corresponds to a variable display game in which a symbol row in which a plurality of symbols are drawn is varied.

  Reference numeral 3 denotes a window provided in the center of the front surface of the design panel 22, and the design on the reel tape that is affixed (arranged or applied) to the outer periphery of the drum unit 2 can be seen through the transparent panel 21. It is like that. In this window portion 3, there are a total of five effective lines, which are three effective lines extending in the lateral direction and two effective lines intersecting obliquely, with the left drum 2 a and the middle drum 2 b and the middle drum 2 b and the right It is displayed prominently by a line connecting the drums 2c. However, the effective lines are not limited to the horizontal direction, the diagonal direction, and the number of lines, but are appropriately determined at the design stage, such as a V-shaped shape or a reverse small mountain shape. Note that a rotating part line display LED is embedded below the effective line, and lights or blinks when winning or operating.

  Reference numeral 4 denotes a display LED block provided below the window 3 and on the lower surface of the design panel 22, and as will be described later, an insertion number LED 4a, a medal storage number display LED 4b, a medal payout number display LED 4c, and a replay display LED 4d. The display LED group includes an error display LED 4e and an effect display LED 4f.

  Reference numeral 5 denotes a medal insertion unit, which is a game medal for starting a variable display game for rotating and stopping the drum unit 2 (rotating drum) (a game medium, sometimes referred to as “coin” or simply “medal”). A medal insertion slot is provided. Note that a left light transmitting portion 5a and a right light transmitting portion 5b are provided on both sides of the medal insertion portion 5, and the medal is received by light from a plurality of light sources (for example, LEDs) attached to the lower left and right. When it is impossible to insert, it is red (first color). On the other hand, when a medal can be inserted and displayed for addition for gaming, it is blue (second color). When it is displayed for addition on the medal storage device, it is green. Lights in (third color). However, if a medal cannot be inserted, it may be turned off. In the game software, the game medium is data (for example, the number of inserted medals, credit value data, or token) that means a game medal or a game coin, and an actual game medal or game coin is inserted from the medal insertion unit 5. Is not to be done.

  The medals inserted from the medal slot are counted by a medal sorting device (also referred to as a “selector”, not shown), and the number of medals successfully inserted is added to indicate the number of inserted LEDs 4a of the display LED block 4. Alternatively, it is displayed on the medal stored number display LED 4b.

  Reference numeral 6 denotes a settlement button (or credit return switch), which is used for starting and releasing a medal storage device (not shown) and paying out (returning) inserted medals and stored medals. In particular, as will be described later, the game value is settled or returned by outputting the total value (game value) of the inserted medal and the stored medal to the sand device connected to the gaming machine main body. For example, assuming that there are 3 inserted medals and 40 stored medals (total 43 credits), and the settlement button is operated in this state, the gaming machine body 1 transmits game value data, A total of 43 game values are returned. When the sand device receives game value data corresponding to a total of 43 cards from the gaming machine main body, the game device records game value information on a built-in member card or card-like information recording medium, and discharges the game value data out of the sand device. Naturally, if 100 stored medals are recorded on the membership card, 143 new stored medals are recorded.

  Reference numeral 7 denotes a 1-bet button, which is used when inserting one stored medal of the medal storing device in order to play a game. Recently, the 1-bet button 7 may not be provided. Further, on the left side of the 1-bet button 7, a cursor operation in the vertical and horizontal directions and a cross key (not shown) necessary for viewing history information may be provided.

  A maximum bet button 8 is a maximum inserted number (one piece) defined according to the gaming state, such as when a maximum of three stored medals in the medal storage device are inserted to play a game, or during a bonus game. Or 2 sheets: optimal number of sheets). Note that an LED is provided inside the max bet button 3, and lights up when the max bet button 3 is operable.

  Reference numeral 9 denotes a start lever (a part of the spinning cylinder rotation starting device), which is used when the drum unit 2 is started all at once after inserting a predetermined number of game medals necessary for playing a game. An LED is provided around the start lever 9, and is lit when the start operation is possible. In addition, the start lever 9 is set to a desired setting value selected from step values 1 to 6 (or four step jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7 and the like) when setting the stage of the payout rate. Used when confirming (when re-entering).

  Reference numeral 10 denotes a stop button portion (also referred to as a “stop switch” as a synonymous name), which is used to stop the rotating drum portion 2. The stop button portion 10 is composed of three button groups (there are rarely four cases) including a left stop button 10a, a middle stop button 10b, and a right stop button 10c, and the drum portion 2 stops while rotating. By operating the button unit 10, the left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c corresponding to each button can be stopped. When the rotation of the three drums, the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, reaches a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm) and the stop button unit becomes operable, the stop button 10a, the stop button The LEDs built in 10b and the stop button 10c are lit. Further, when the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c are used as the direction input means, it is possible to sequentially correspond to the left direction, the upward direction, and the right direction input, respectively.

  11 is a display effect device composed of a color display using a cathode ray tube, an LCD (liquid crystal display), a PDP (plasma display panel) or an FPD (flat panel display) such as an organic EL (electroluminescence), Various video effects relating to the spinning game, notification of required information, and the like can be performed under the control of an effect control unit (not shown). Regardless of whether or not dedicated glasses are used, 3D display devices that can display stereoscopic images in 3D display have recently been manufactured at a low cost, and 7D and other effect images are projected in a reach state or a big hit state. Gaming machines that adopt the are becoming mainstream. The effect control unit includes a ROM and a RAM, performs bidirectional communication with the sub-control unit 160, and executes various effects according to the received effect command.

  A speaker unit 12 includes four speakers, an upper left speaker 12a, an upper right speaker 12b, a lower left speaker 12c, and a lower right speaker 12d. During changing of sound effects and step set values according to various effects, or the front door A warning sound is generated when 1b is open or when a trouble occurs.

  FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a control circuit system of a spinning cylinder type gaming machine.

  The control circuit system is roughly divided into a main block (main board: a part not enclosed by a broken line) and a sub block (sub board: a part enclosed by a broken line), while the main block performs control related to a game result. The sub-block is responsible for control related to various effects that attract the player's interest and interest, such as game progress and announcement / display of the internal lottery result. Note that the sub-block notifies the stop operation procedure (the operation order and operation timing of the stop button unit 10) of avoiding the small role winning or the falling replay when the ART is activated.

  Reference numeral 100 denotes a main control unit, which is an integrated one-chip microcomputer (LE4380A-PA-S manufactured by EL Tech Co.) on which a microprocessor incorporating a CPU is mounted, and a control procedure for a predetermined data table area and the entire apparatus. ROM 101 for storing a control program in which is described, and RAM 102 (RWM: also referred to as rewritable memory, which includes a counter, a register, etc., and temporarily stores information necessary for control. Also includes not only internal but also external RAM. )). As will be described later, even if the power switch 28c is turned off or the power cord is disconnected, the RAM 102 retains all the control data stored by the RAM backup power source that is always supplied via the power connector. However, when the power connector itself is removed, power is not supplied, so the control data is erased (all cleared or reset to 0) or meaningless information.

  The main control unit 100 includes a start SW sensor 110 (start switch sensor 110), a stop button sensor 120, a medal detection sensor 130, and a bet button sensor 140 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. The stage setting unit 150, the stop setting unit 180, and the checkout button sensor are connected, and the main control unit 100 is configured to be able to receive input signals from these.

  The main control unit 100 is connected to the drum unit 2, the medal payout device 18, the display LED block 4, and the external concentrated terminal board 170 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. The main control unit 100 is configured to be able to control these devices by transmitting and receiving input / output signals. From each index sensor provided in the drum unit 2, an index signal of one pulse per rotation is input to the main control unit 100.

  The main control unit 100 outputs information necessary for collecting and managing the operating status of the gaming machine in the pachislot store or the like from the external centralized terminal board 170, but does not receive any information from the external centralized terminal board 170. . The signals output from the main controller 100 to the outside are a medal insertion signal, a medal payout signal, an external output signal 1 (for example, a BB signal or a pseudo BB signal), an external output signal 2 (for example, an RB signal or a pseudo RB signal), An external output signal 3 (for example, an AT signal), an external output signal 4 (for example, a signal indicating that various errors have occurred), an external output signal 5 (for example, a goth action detection signal), and a relay common signal. In particular, the BB signal and the RB signal are not only collected and managed by the hall computer as an assist bonus combination (referred to as a “third bonus combination”), and the AT signal is a special combination. It is also output to a data counter installed near the upper part, and is used to display the main information of the pachislot game (game count, BB count, ART count, appearance information) to the player.

  The main control unit 100 extracts one of the random numbers (values 0 to 65535) continuously generated by the built-in random number generation unit 103 in accordance with the operation of the start lever 9 by the player. A lottery is performed, and the drum section 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c) is a three-row (multiple-row) symbol row on which a plurality of (usually 20 or 21) symbols are drawn. The symbol variation display game is started by rotating. For example, in the random lottery, when any of the paying small roles such as bell, cherry, watermelon or plum is won internally, and the player performs the stop operation of the stop button unit 10, the main control unit 100 follows the operation order. The drum unit 2 is sequentially stopped at a predetermined position. As a result, if a predetermined symbol is displayed side by side on any of the five active lines of the window portion 3, a winning is achieved. However, the number of active lines is not limited to five, but changes according to the number of inserted medals, or increases / decreases as appropriate according to design specifications and gaming conditions.

  For example, assuming that the number of game media payouts specified according to the type of winning is 1 bell, 2 cherries, 5 watermelons and 8 plums, only the bell symbol is displayed side by side on the second line. Then, the main control unit 100 pays out one piece as a bell prize. If the specified number of throws is three, even if the bell wins, the deduction will be minus two. Therefore, in the state where the bonus combination and the small combination are simultaneously elected internally, priority is given to the small combination symbol in the internal election. Even if it is stopped on the active line, medals can be consumed. On the other hand, if the bell symbol is displayed side by side on the second line and the plum symbol is displayed on the third line, the main control unit 100 pays out a total of nine bells for one winning bell and eight plums. 6 plus dividends.

  The main control unit 100 is connected to a sub control unit 160 and a credit control unit 165 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. Basically, various information can be transmitted from the main control unit 100 to both control units, but conversely, the main control unit 100 cannot receive information from both control units (that is, one-way communication from the main control unit 100 to both control units). Can be connected). However, only credit data composed of 2 bits can be received from the credit control unit 165 via the data input circuit 166 (for example, two NOT circuits). This credit data is 2-bit data of 00 indicating 0 credits, 01 indicating 1 credits, 10 indicating 2 credits, 11 indicating 3 credits or more, and is similar to various sensor input signals. It is input as a High or Low signal to the two input ports.

  The main control unit 100 informs the sub control unit 160 of control data (for example, coin insertion data, lottery results and winning status data, step setting value data, switch setting state of the step setting unit 150) necessary for various control of the sub blocks. Output data to the sub-control unit 160. Similar to the main control unit 100, the sub-control unit 160 is an integrated one-chip microcomputer equipped with a microprocessor with a built-in CPU, and a ROM 161 that stores a control program describing the control procedure of the entire sub-block; A counter, a timer, a register, and the like are formed, and a RAM 162 that temporarily stores information necessary for control received from the main control unit 100 is provided. This ROM 161 stores a plurality of BGM (Background Music) data. Especially in the bonus game, a specially arranged BGM is provided according to the production scene to enhance the player's feelings. Selected and played as appropriate. The main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 do not need to be provided separately, and may be a single control unit.

  The sub-control unit 160 has a display effect device 11, a speaker unit 12, a gaming state display LED unit 13, an input SW unit 25 (input switch unit 25), via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. The timer unit 26, the operation direction sensor 111, the special button sensor 112, and the door abnormality signal output device 113 are connected, and the sub-control unit 160 receives input signals from these devices and outputs necessary data and signals. Various controls can be performed.

  The sub-control unit 160, based on the inserted number data, the paid-out number data, and the variable display game number data in the control data transmitted from the main control unit 100, the difference display number after initialization and the variable display game digested after the bonus The number of times is counted. When the counted difference number or number of times reaches a predetermined number, an AT stock lottery or a selection game is activated. At this time, the sub-control unit 160 displays on the display effect device 11 "Do you want to start the selected game? If you want to start, please hit the special button repeatedly."

  This AT stock lottery draws the number of stocks in a range of, for example, 0 to 127, 0 is lost, and 1 to 127 is won. If 127 is won, a minimum of 127 consecutive chunks will be determined. However, since AT stock lottery is executed even when AT is stocked, it can be further added and stored up to MAX10000. However, these are merely examples based on design specifications, and are not limited to these numerical values.

  Further, the sub-control unit 160 confirms whether or not to execute the selected game, and when the player hits the special button repeatedly, receives a pulse signal corresponding to the number of repeated hits, and the number of pulses is a predetermined number of 8 times or more. When the number is reached, a selection game lottery is performed to determine a winning number (for example, “0” or “1”). When the selected game is activated, “O or X” or “Left or Right” or the like is displayed on the display effect device 11 corresponding to the left stop button 10a and the right stop button 10c, respectively, and the selection operation is performed to the player. Prompt. For example, when “0” is won in the selected game lottery result, if the player operates the left stop button 10a and selects the corresponding “O” or “Left”, the selected game is won. Then, when the sub-control unit 160 determines that the winning is made, in the subsequent variable display game, until the number of game media increases according to the inserted number, the difference number, or the number of variable display games, or the AT stock lottery (1 to 127). The AT function (a function for notifying auxiliary information by the notification means) is activated for the number of times selected in the (number).

  On the other hand, if the player operates the right stop button 10c and selects the corresponding “X” or “Right”, the selected game is lost. If the sub-control unit 160 determines that it is a loss, the sub-control unit 160 initializes the difference number or the number of variable display games without activating the AT function, and returns to the start. As a result, even if the player is in a humiliated state, if he / she wins in the selected game, he / she can recover more than he has ever lost, or can dare to change, and can expect a one-time reversal. In the above, the two choices are doubled by winning, but if there are five choices, it is possible to return five times when winning, and if the player can select the magnification, the preference is further increased. Increase.

  In response to the start operation of the start lever 9, the sub-control unit 160 executes random number lottery internally, and receives a lottery, replay, small game, or lose result notification, and the lottery result is sent to the player. Before the notification is made, an effect lottery is performed as to whether or not to produce an effect on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. When the sub-control unit 160 is won in the effect lottery, the sub-control unit 160 selects an effect image to be displayed from the plurality of effect images stored in the ROM 161 and outputs the selected effect image to the display effect device 11.

  In particular, as will be described later, the sub-control unit 160 has an AT stock, and when a push order small combination (a plurality of first small combinations and a plurality of push order prescribed small combinations) is won internally, Assist information (auxiliary information) for aligning the first small role symbol (for example, bell symbol) being selected on the active line is displayed on the display effect device 11. As a result, the player can easily win the first small role.

  Returning to FIG. 5, the credit control unit 165 is connected to the sand device 300 and is frequency information corresponding to the cash inserted by the player or a recording medium when set to the sand mode described later. Credit information such as a membership card, visitor card, cash card or prepaid card is received and the frequency information or credit information is displayed. When the player operates the lending button 167, 50 is added to the stored credit display unit and displayed. For example, if the stored credit display section is displaying 1, 50 is added to 1 to display 51, but only up to 99 is displayed. Further, the credit control unit 165 changes from the state where the data 01 is input to the data input circuit 166 to the state where the data 11 indicating the number of credits 3 or more is input. When the max bet button 8 is operated in this state, the main control unit 100 turns on three insertion number LEDs 4a and outputs insertion data indicating that only three credits have been inserted as the number of bets to the credit control unit 165. . The credit control unit 165 displays 48 which is a value obtained by subtracting the credit 3 on the stored credit display unit. In this state, when the player operates the settlement button 190 (credit return switch), the main control unit 100 transmits bet amount data indicating 3 bets. Upon receiving this betting number data, the credit control unit 165 transmits return credit information (game value) with a return credit of 51 (48 + 3) to the sand device 300. The sand device 300 adds the return credit 51 to the membership card, etc., and records and discharges the cash balance. When a player plays a replay combination (re-playing combination) and the player can operate the checkout button in a state where the next game can be executed, the main control unit 100 transmits bet amount data indicating the bet number 0. The credit control unit 165 transmits the return credit information (game value) that the return credit is 48 to the sand device 300. The sand device 300 adds the return credit 48 to the membership card and the like, records the cash balance and discharges it outside, but the main control unit 100 outputs a warning command to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 displays a warning screen on the display effect device 11 and generates a warning sound from the speaker unit 12 to notify the player that the game can be replayed.

  The operation direction sensor 111 outputs a direction signal corresponding to the up / down / left / right direction in which the start lever 9 is operated, and the sub-control unit 160 receives the direction signal, and performs various video effects and winning notifications according to the direction signal. Are displayed on the display effect device 11 and sound effects are generated from the speaker unit 12.

  The special button sensor 112 outputs an ON signal (for example, a HIGH signal) when the special button 14 is operated, and outputs an OFF signal (for example, a LOW signal) when the special button 14 is released, and the sub control unit 160 receives the ON signal. Depending on the timing and the number of times the pulse is received (referred to as continuous hitting), various games and video effects, winning notifications, etc. are displayed on the display effect device 11. Furthermore, sound effects such as bomb dropping and machine gun operation are generated from the speaker unit 12.

  The door abnormality signal output device 113 is a device that detects the open / closed state of the door and outputs a control signal to the sub-control unit 160. When the main power supply is ON, an ON / OFF signal is generated according to the opening / closing of the front door 1b. In the state where the main power supply is OFF, it is driven by the power supplied from the sub power supply (backup battery), detects and stores the abnormal opening / closing of the front door 1b when the main power supply is cut off, and then the main power supply Even when the power is turned on, the sub-control unit 160 is notified of abnormal opening and closing when the main power is turned off. As a result, the sub-control unit 160 generates a warning sound when the main power is turned on even if the front door 1b is closed and appears to have no abnormality, so that the manager of the game hall recognizes the abnormal situation. Appropriate measures such as checking and inspection of gaming machines can be taken.

  The medal detection sensor 130 includes a medal passage sensor and a proximity sensor (not shown), and outputs a number of pulse signals corresponding to the number of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 5. The main control unit 100 receives this pulse signal, and executes counter logic processing at the rise and fall of the pulse signal, depending on the number of pulses in the inserted number LED 4a or medal reserve number display LED 4b in the display LED block 4. Control is performed to display the number of inserted sheets or the number of credits increased by a certain number.

  The bet button detection sensor 140 includes a 1 bet button detection sensor 140a that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the 1 bet button 7, and a max bet button detection sensor 140b that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the max bet button 8. It is composed of two and is separately connected to two ports of the main control unit 100 (not shown in detail). The main controller 100 controls the number display of the input number LED 4a so as to correspond to the obtained pulse signal.

  Further, when the player operates the start lever 9 after inserting a predetermined number of medals, the start SW sensor 110 outputs a start signal, and the main control unit 100 performs random number lottery or the like in response to reception of the start signal. A variation display game is started and a drive pulse signal is output to the drum unit 2. The game performed by operating the start lever 9 once is a variable display game of one game, and the player aims to increase the medal by acquiring a bonus game (big bonus or regular bonus). Repeat the game. Note that the bonus game means, for example, a first-type special combination (RB), a first-type special combination continuous operation, or a second-type special combination continuous operation.

  Then, when the stop buttons 10a, 10b, and 10c are operated during the variable display game, the main control unit 100 stops the rotation of the rotating drum and establishes a predetermined winning combination (the symbols of each rotating drum are predetermined). When the medals are paid out when displayed in a predetermined combination, the payout number is displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c in the display LED block 4, and this is added to the number of credits and the medal. The stored number is displayed on the LED 4b. When the payout operation is performed with the settlement button 6 or when the number of credits exceeds, for example, the maximum number of 50, the main control unit 100 controls the medal payout device 18 so that the required number of medals can be obtained as medals. It is discharged from the discharge outlet 16 and accumulated in the tray 15.

  Further, the main control unit 100 outputs control data (event data) related to internal winning etc. to the sub-control unit 160 when a replay or small role, especially a bonus, is won internally. When the sub-control unit 160 receives control data from the main control unit 100, the lighting control of the gaming state display LED unit 13 and the control of a speech synthesis LSI (not shown) for generating sound effects from the speaker unit 12 are performed. In addition, various presentation operations such as display control of characters and background video in the display screen of the display presentation device 11 are performed.

  150 is a stage setting unit, and by performing the stage setting operation of the payout rate, which will be described later, the hall side determines the stage value according to the collection status for a large amount of medals released at the event or new opening and improvement of profits. A desired set value can be selected from 1 to 6 (or jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.).

  If the stop setting unit (not shown) is on (or “1”), after the bonus game is over, the total number of medals displayed on the inserted number LED 4a and the medal stored number display LED 4b is forcibly paid out. The operation for playing the variable display game is disabled (stopped), and a warning sound is generated from the speaker unit 12. Recently, there are many slot machines that do not include the stop setting unit, and are provided as necessary.

  Reference numeral 25 denotes an input SW unit (input switch unit) for inputting various data. For example, a warning mode is set when a stage setting operation of the payout rate is performed, or a time period during which a warning is generated or not generated. Set up. The warning mode includes three modes: an on state or an off state of a warning generation function, and a timer state in which a warning is generated only during a set time period. The input SW unit 25 includes an initialization switch for initializing the sub-block and a volume switch used for switching the volume of the speaker unit 12, and functions when both are pressed simultaneously. ing.

  Reference numeral 26 denotes a time measuring unit including a radio clock that receives absolute time data from a satellite or the like and keeps accurate time, and continues to output the time measured to the sub-control unit 160.

  FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a control circuit system for controlling the drum unit.

  The drum unit 2 includes step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c for controlling rotation of the three drums of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, and responds to the drive pulse signal from the main control unit 100. When the step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c are driven and the drive pulse signals are continuously supplied to the three phases at the same time, a suction force is generated and suddenly stops.

  The step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c are four-phase 1-2 excitation methods, have a step number of 252 steps / rotation (1.43 degrees / step), and just when the main control unit 100 inputs 504 pulses of the drive pulse signal. Rotate once. The main control unit 100 returns one pulse of each index signal (reference signal or reference position signal) from each of the cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c formed of photo interrupters provided for each drum. The position of can be accurately grasped. That is, the resolution by one input pulse is 0.714 (degrees / pulse). When the resolution is further increased, the rotational position can be grasped in detail by managing the time from the input pulse to the next input pulse and the rotational speed.

  FIG. 7 is a configuration block diagram of the drum unit.

  Center portions of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, which are thick disk-shaped rotating bodies, are connected to the rotation shafts of the step motors 30a (not shown), 30b (not shown), and 30c, respectively. It rotates in the direction of the arrow shown (ie, from top to bottom). In addition, a left swirl belt 32a, a middle swirl belt 32b, and a right swirl belt 32c on which a plurality of types of symbols are drawn are attached to the outer peripheral portion of each drum. Is established (winning or operating) if the predetermined symbols are displayed on the window 3 along the active line. In addition, the star mark, + mark, plum mark (black circle mark) and triangle mark in the figure are shown for convenience, and are different from the actual ones. 7 symbols, bar symbol, bell symbol, watermelon symbol and cherry A symbol is generally used. In general, the rotator belt is called a reel tape.

  Cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c (not shown) are provided for each of the step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c, and one index signal is returned from each cylinder sensor for each rotation of the step motor. It comes to come. The main control unit 100 always grasps the symbol number and the rotation angle (24 divisions / design) at the reference position (for example, the lowest position of the window 3) based on the index signal and the number of output drive pulse signals. ing.

  FIG. 8 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  As shown in the illustration, each swirl belt has 21 differently arranged symbols. Big bonus symbols such as “Red 7” and “Blue 7” that act as bonuses, and various small part winning symbol cherry A watermelon, bell, and replay with replays are depicted. It should be noted that the discarded symbols do not constitute any role even when stopped on the active line, and for example, “N” is printed in a light gray circle in order to make the player inconspicuous.

  FIG. 9 is a structural block diagram of the drum unit, and FIGS. 9A and 9B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to be pulled in time series.

  When the main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and the lottery result is won and the winning combination is won internally, the main control unit 100 performs pull-in control for drawing the symbol of the winning combination on the active line as much as possible. Do.

  For example, in the so-called reach state in which the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b where the big bonus combination has been won internally, 4 frames above this effective line When the symbol “7” is located within (ie, within five frames including the symbol on the active line), when the right stop button 10c is stopped (see FIG. 9A), The control unit 100 performs pull-in control for forcibly drawing the symbol “7” onto the active line and aligning it so as to be a combination of “7, 7, 7” (see FIG. 9B).

  On the other hand, even if one of the winning combinations is won internally by lottery, the player is not in an advantageous state unless a predetermined symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed on the active line. For example, a big bonus game (BB game) does not operate unless it is displayed as shown in FIG. This pull-in control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. The main control unit 100 performs stop control with reference to a stop table that defines the stop position of each drum in accordance with a random number lottery situation (internal winning or loss).

  In the example of FIG. 9, in the reach state, the symbol “7” of the right drum 2 c is just 4 frames above and is lined up on the effective line as a target of the pull-in control. However, the pull-in control is not limited to four frames, and the number of pull-in frames can be increased / decreased by software control so as to be adapted to the design specifications or legal regulations. In addition, when the random number lottery result is a win in the general game, the sub-control unit 160 assists information (operation sequence and operation order) for stopping the rotation of the rotary drum so that the symbols are displayed in a predetermined combination by the pull-in control. Assist information such as operation timing (AT) is notified.

  FIG. 10 is a configuration block diagram of the drum unit, and FIGS. 10A and 10B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to avoid (or kick control) in time series.

  The main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and when the lottery result is lost and the combination is not established (when all the combinations are not won internally), the main control unit 100 wins or operates on the active line. Avoidance control is performed to prevent the combination of symbols for a combination (bonus, small combination, replay).

  For example, in the reach state (temple state) where the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the stopped left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b without the big bonus combination being elected internally When the stop button 10c is operated in a state where the symbol “7” is located within one frame from the effective line by the “eye press” (for example, this is called “bita press”). A)), the main control unit 100 performs avoidance control for forcibly losing the symbol “7” by moving the symbol “7” one step ahead so that “7, 7, 7” is not aligned on the active line ( (See FIG. 10B). This avoidance control is performed not only for the right drum 2c but also for any of the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b, and the avoidance control is performed so that an unsuccessful small role symbol does not win. It is like that. These pull-in control and avoidance control (kick-off control) are performed by the main control unit 100 referring to a stop table according to the internal winning situation or by control control by a program.

  FIG. 11 is a timing chart showing the relationship among the index signal, symbol position data (frame data), drive pulse signal, and stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 11A shows index signals output from the respective drum sensors 31a, 31b and 31c, and the main control is performed so that T1 becomes constant at 0.751 seconds (that is, 79.9 revolutions / minute). Controlled by the unit 100.

  FIG. 11B shows the symbol position data of the rotating drum, and FIG. 11C shows the drive pulse signal.

  The symbol position data is generated by dividing the drive pulse signal, and 1 is subtracted from the data every 24 pulses of the drive pulse signal. That is, with reference to the index signal, the symbol position data is “21” in the range of the driving pulse signal from 1 pulse to 24 pulses, the symbol position data is “20” in the range of the driving pulse signal from 25 pulses to 48 pulses, The symbol position data is “19” when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 49 to 72 pulses, the symbol position data is “1” when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 481 to 504 pulses, and the symbol position data is 21 to 1 Turn around. That is, the symbol position data returns to “21” after “1”.

  The drive pulse signal is a drive pulse of a prescribed pattern that is input to the motor coil in order to rotate the rotating drum in a certain direction, and there are eight pattern numbers of patterns 0 to 7 as can be seen from the figure. When pattern numbers 0 to 7 are repeatedly applied to the motor coils 1 to 4 as this drive pulse signal three times (that is, 24 pulses are input), the rotating drum rotates from top to bottom by one pattern (one frame). To do.

  In particular, the input pulse phase data of the drive pulse input to the step motor is 5-bit data from 0 to 23 for driving the rotating drum by one frame, and pattern numbers 0 to 7 are phase data of the lower 3 bits. Thus, the drive pulse corresponding to the pattern number is actually applied to the motor coils 1 to 4 phase. Therefore, even when only the pattern number is stored in the work RAM (RAM 102), it corresponds to the phase data storage means for storing the input pulse phase data.

  FIG. 11D shows a stop button sensor signal output when each stop button is operated. In the case of this figure, the main control unit 100 recognizes the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “10” (or pattern number “2”) at the rising edge of the stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of the left drum 2a included in the drum portion.

  As shown in FIG. 12A, the left drum 2a rotates in the direction of the arrow (from the top to the bottom), and the cherry pattern is placed on any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the three windows 3 indicated by solid lines. When is stopped, a prize is awarded and a predetermined number of game medals are paid out. FIG. 12A shows a state where the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the window 3.

  When the player performs an operation to start the variable display game, the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery. As a result, when the upper cherry (cherry 1) is won, the position (timing) at which the stop button is operated. ) To perform cherry symbol pull-in control (see FIG. 9) or avoidance control (see FIG. 10).

  FIG. 12 (B) shows the possible range of pull-in control. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position four frames above the position where the cherry pattern is just the upper stage, the main control unit 100 3. Stop the cherry symbol at the top of 3 (assuming that the bita symbol is in the upper position). In actuality, it takes about 36 ms to stop, so it is positioned higher by that amount, but for convenience of explanation, it is written in this way. In addition, since it is specified that the stop operation is performed within 190 ms from the stop operation, there is a case where four frames are not slipped.

  On the other hand, FIGS. 12 (C) and 12 (D) show the range in which avoidance control or the like is performed, and the main control unit 100 has the cherry symbol 4 from the upper position even when the upper cherry is won. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position above the frame (that is, a position higher than 4 in FIG. 12A) or a position slightly past the upper position, the position of the upper position or the lower position is increased. Stop the cherry symbol down and make it lose. That is, since the middle cherry (cherry 2) or the lower cherry (cherry 3) is not won, the cherry symbol must be forcibly stopped outside the window 3.

  FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the left drum 2a, the window 3 and the symbol position data.

  As shown in FIGS. 13A and 13B, the cherry symbols on the left drum 2a are frame number 8 and frame number 19 (see FIG. 8). When the lowermost position of the unit 3 is used as a measurement reference, the main control unit 100 reads the symbol position data “15” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “23” or the symbol. When the stop button 10a is operated in the range of the position data “5” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “1” and the input pulse phase data “23”, the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage and a winning is made. . In other words, even if the stop button 10a is appropriately operated, not only winning with a probability of 10/21, but if a winner is notified, an expert can push forward and win with a probability close to 100%. .

  FIG. 14 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line corresponding to the number of inserted game medals. For example, when three game medals are inserted and the two-paid-out cherry pattern of the left drum 2a is displayed on the window 3, if the upper row is four (2 × 2 lines: the second line and the second line) 4 lines), 2 (2 sheets × 1 line: 1st line) in the middle stage and 4 (2 sheets × 2 lines: 3rd line and 5th line) game medals in the lower stage. However, this effective line is a general one that has been conventionally employed, and there are many irregular lines as described later.

  In addition, when the eight-paid-out bell symbols are displayed on the active line of the window portion 3, if only the middle stage is displayed, it should be 8 sheets (8 sheets × 1 line: the first line) and the upper stage and diagonally down to the right. For example, 15 game medals are paid out (8 sheets × 2 lines but MAX 15 sheets: second line and fourth line). In other words, game media with the number of payouts defined according to the type of winning is paid out in total for the winning amount, but the maximum payout at one time is 15.

  FIG. 15 is a configuration block diagram of the display effect device.

  The display effect device 11 includes a command receiving unit 11a that receives an effect command from the sub-control unit 160, a display effect control unit 11b (including a ROM 11c and a RAM 11d), and a display panel 11e such as an LCD, an organic EL, or an LED. Yes. In this case, the ROM 11c is separately provided in the display effect control unit 11b, but there is no problem even if all the video data is stored in the ROM 161. Therefore, the ROM 11c may be considered as a part of the ROM 161.

  FIG. 16 is an effect pattern table, which associates the relationship between effect commands and effect pattern data stored in the ROM.

  The effect command is composed of 1-byte length mode data and 1-byte length event data, and stores effect pattern data (mainly a moving image but also a still image), which is an effect content. .

  When the sub-control unit 160 receives control data necessary for various controls from the main control unit 100 (particularly, various types of data indicating a big hit, a small hit, a replay, or a loss of the random number lottery result are included), a random number is received. Before notifying the lottery result, an appropriate effect command corresponding to the control data is transmitted to the display effect device 11 side, and the command receiving unit 11a receives the effect command and transmits it to the display effect control unit 11b.

  Upon receiving the effect command, the display effect control unit 11b reads the effect pattern data corresponding to the effect command from the ROM 11c, expands the data in the RAM 11d, and transmits the data to the display panel 11e, thereby displaying the effect image corresponding to the effect command. It is configured to be displayed on the screen.

  17 to 19 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  For example, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Z0 $ 00) as an effect command, for example, the display panel 11e displays the “daytime effect pattern of the low-probability stage mainly indicating a state where there is no AT stock or a state where AT is difficult to win. “0” is displayed (see FIG. 17A). On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Y0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e displays the “nighttime” of the high-probability stage that suggests a state where there is AT stock or a high-probability state in which AT is easy to win. The “effect pattern 0” is displayed (see FIG. 17B). Therefore, the player is anxious to display a “night stage” that mainly suggests a high probability state during the game. However, it is also possible to display a “night stage” when there is no AT stock or a non-high probability state, or display a “day stage” when there is a reverse AT stock or a high probability state. Yes, it is devised to invite the player's interest.

  Further, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ S0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e superimposes “Dracula Castle”, which is an image corresponding to “castle effect pattern 0”, on the blue sky background screen. It can be displayed (see Fig. 17 (A)) or overlaid on the background screen of moonlight night (see Fig. 17 (B)), and then yellow, red or blue bats jump out of Dracula Castle The notification video corresponding to the established combination (small combination or replay) is displayed (see FIG. 17C).

  When the effects of FIG. 17 (B) occur frequently and then develop in multiple stages, it becomes a sign effect (a fierce effect effect) where there is a large amount of AT stock and the expectation of AT release. For example, FIG. 18A shows a state in which “Dracula Castle” is enlarged and the iron gate is opened. Then, the door further expands (see FIG. 18B), gradually opens (see FIG. 18C), and the interior of the dazzling “Dracula Castle” is displayed (see FIG. 18D). After that, it develops into a battle between the protagonist and the count of vampires Dracula. If the protagonist wins, there is AT stock, AT release is confirmed, and bonus release is confirmed during bonus internal election.

  From the state where the normal screen of the night of FIG. 19A (same as FIG. 17B) is displayed, the display screen is scrolled to the right, the cemetery is expanded, and the character butler screams “Olya”. Along with the sound effect “Tiroro Lolone”, the character of the hero appears from the grave hole in the center of the screen (see FIG. 19 (B)), or the characters “BONUS” meaning “big hit” are displayed ( (See FIG. 19C). All of these display effects are also executed by the sub-control unit 160 outputting an effect command according to the program.

  FIG. 20 is a conceptual diagram of a general lottery table.

  The lottery table is stored in a predetermined area of the ROM 101, and defines the relationship between the winning combination and the number used for the random number lottery.

  In the case of the rotary type gaming machine of the present invention, the main control unit 100 generates a random value. This random number value is generated at random from 0 to 65535 (m7) in a cycle, and always at random once in one cycle. FIG. 20A is a lottery table used in a normal state (non-RT state). When the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery in accordance with the timing at which the start lever 9 is operated, If it is in the range of m1, the big bonus (BB) is won. That is, the internal lottery is to pick up (extract) one random number value in accordance with a predetermined timing at the start operation and to determine the winning combination by comparing with a lottery table.

  Similarly, regular bonus (RB) in the range of random numbers m1 + 1 to m2, cherry in the range of random numbers m2 + 1 to m3, watermelon in the range of random numbers m3 + 1 to m4, bell in the range of random numbers m4 + 1 to m5 The replay is won when the random value is in the range of m5 + 1 to m6, whereas the replay is lost in the range of the m6 + 1 to m7.

  Normally, these m1 to m7 values are set appropriately in consideration of laws and regulations (wind management law) and game characteristics, but in the case of an A type normal machine, the BB winning probability is “1/200”. RB winning probability is about 1/400, cherry and watermelon winning probability is about 1/50, bell winning probability is about 1/6, and replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3. It has become.

  On the other hand, FIG. 20B is a lottery table used in the high-probability replaying state (RT state). In the replay time, the winning range for replay is widened by α, whereas the lost range is narrowed by α. Thus, the winning probability of replay is set to about “½”. As a result, the probability of winning the replay corresponding to the three-piece payout is greatly increased, but the probability of being lost is lowered. As a result, the expected payout value of game medals is greatly improved or increased during the replay time. . Further, the main control unit 100 can set the expected value of the replay time to a desired value by increasing or decreasing the α value.

  Although a detailed drawing of the lottery table is omitted, there are six lottery tables 1, lottery tables 2... Lottery table 6 corresponding to the stage setting values 1 to 6 of the payout rate and the number of inserted medals (specified number), and the main control unit. Selects a lottery table according to the stage setting value and the number of inserted medals set by the stage setting unit 150, and executes a bonus game and internal lottery of a plurality of small roles in a variable display game. Note that the expected value for winning the bonus game in the internal lottery is generally the lottery table 1 <the lottery table 2 <... <The lottery table 6, so the player pursues the high setting table. However, in the case of a three-sheet machine, a lottery table with one inserted medal is not necessary.

  FIG. 21 is a payout table showing the relationship between the combination of symbols and the number of acquired medals.

  BB (Big Bonus) is the title when the BB symbol of “Red 7” is aligned on the active line, and when it is aligned, the number of medals won is 0, and the Big Bonus with flag 1 set in the corresponding flag area The game enters the game (BB game: operation of an accessory continuous operation device) and ends with payout exceeding 360 sheets.

  RB (Regular Bonus) is the title when the RB symbol of “Blue 7” is aligned on the active line, and when it is aligned, the number of medals won is 0, and the regular bonus is set with flag 1 in the corresponding flag area The game enters the game (RB game: operation of the continuous action device), and ends with payout exceeding 120 cards. Note that these accessory continuous action devices may be either a first-type special accessory or a second-type special accessory, and are appropriately selected according to design specifications.

  When the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum, one medal is obtained for each effective line. For example, if the effective line is the display determination diagram of FIG. 14, if it stops at the middle stage of the left drum, it will be one sheet (short cho), but if it is the upper stage or the lower stage, there will be two active lines and the payout will be 2 in total. It becomes a sheet (square che).

  When the watermelon symbols are aligned on the active line, 5 medals are obtained.

  When the bell symbols are aligned on the active line, 8 medals are obtained.

  When the replay symbols are aligned on the active line, the replay in which no medal is acquired is activated, the flag 1 is set in the flag area, and the replay operation is performed by operating the player's start lever 9 to lower the flag (ie, 0). That is, the next game can be played without inserting medals.

  Next, the basic operation of the swivel type gaming machine configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to flowcharts and the like.

  First, in a state in which the spinning machine is shipped from the factory, as a default, the warning mode is “ON”, the stop setting unit 180 (stop setting switch) is “OFF”, and the step setting value is the lowest “1”. Is set.

  When the game hall side opens the front door of the swivel type gaming machine body 1 and turns on the power switch 28c before the player plays, the power is supplied to each circuit block, and the main control unit 100 will be described later. In step S100, initial check (hardware abnormality check, etc.) and initial setting (for example, writing the stop setting flag “1”, the step setting value “1” stored in the ROM 101 and the initial value of the control data to the RAM 102) are executed. Then, the sub-control unit 160 sets the warning mode to “ON”, and when the front door 1b is closed, the variable display game can be played.

  In this game-ready state, even if the game hall side opens the front door 1b again and operates the input SW unit 25 (operation for simultaneously pressing the initialization switch and the volume switch), the sub-control unit 160 Since control data indicating the stage setting mode of the payout rate has not been received, the warning mode is not changed from the “on state” to another state (“off state” or “timer state”). Therefore, there is a specific effect that Goto and the like cannot easily change the warning mode. The stop setting flag “1” corresponds to “on” for the stop setting unit 180 and “off” for “0”.

  Then, it is assumed that the game hall side is going to change the setting of the payout rate for a grand opening, a new store opening, or an event in this setting state.

  FIG. 22 is a flow chart showing the main operation processing procedure of the spinning cylinder type game machine.

  An employee of the game hall opens the front door of the swing type gaming machine body 1 to turn off the power switch 28c, inserts the setting change key into the setting key switch 28a and turns it to the right to turn it on (FIG. 4). When the power switch 28c is turned on again, power is supplied to each circuit block, and after the initial check and initial setting are executed in step S100, the main control unit 100 performs step In S110, it is determined whether or not the setting key switch 28a is in an ON state.

  If the setting key switch 28a is not in the ON state, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S130. If the setting key switch 28a is in the ON state, the main control unit 100 calls a setting change subroutine in step S120 (transfers to the setting change mode).

  In the setting change mode of step S120, before the game hall side causes the player to play, the stage setting value “6” of the payout rate is input, the start lever 9 is hit once to set the setting value, and the setting key switch 28a is pressed. In the OFF state, the main control unit 100 returns to step S100, sets the set value to “6”, and performs necessary processing such as initial hardware check and initial setting again.

  In addition, when the main control unit 100 outputs control data to the sub-control unit 160 in order to perform initial screen display setting in step S100, the sub-control unit 160 displays ($ Y0 $ 01) as an effect command, for example. It transmits to the production device 11. As a result, on the display panel 11e, “Night effect pattern 1” composed of a screen of the full moon, Dracula Castle and the graveyard is displayed as a start screen (not shown).

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S130 after changing the stage setting value, the main control unit 100 checks for occurrence of an abnormality such as a door open, a hopper error, or a selector error. If there is an abnormality, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S140 and again after the abnormality processing. If the process returns to step S100 and there is no abnormality, the process proceeds to step S150. In particular, the main control unit 100 uses 0 to 5 as the step check value data stored in the work RAM area as the abnormality check (the step set values displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c correspond to 1 to 6, respectively). ), And if the step set value is not within the predetermined range, a warning (“EE” error character display) is displayed by the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. , Light emission and warning sound) are generated, and error processing (abnormal processing in step S140) is performed.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S150, the medal detection sensor 130 or the bet button sensor 140 determines whether or not the player has inserted a quantity of game medals necessary for the game. In step S160, on the other hand, if not inserted, the process returns to step S130 and waits while looping each step until a medal insertion operation is performed.

  When the process proceeds to step S160, the main control unit 100 checks whether or not the player has started the variable display game by operating the start lever. If the game is started, the process proceeds to step S170 and is started. If not, the process returns to step S130 and waits while looping each step until a start operation is performed.

  In step S170, the main control unit 100 executes the main process of the variable display game, performs a random number lottery in accordance with the reception timing of the start signal, and picks up (extracts) the random number value and the current internal state (RT or non-RT). The lottery table is compared to determine whether or not an internal winning is made (see the description of FIG. 20).

  The main control unit 100 transmits a lottery result command and a game start signal to the sub control unit 160, and simultaneously rotates the drum unit 2 to display a plurality of numbers displayed on the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c. The change display game for changing the symbols at a predetermined speed is started.

  As described in FIGS. 9 and 10, the main control unit 100 operates the left stop button 10 a, the middle stop button 10 b, or the right stop button 10 c of the stop button unit 10 to each symbol row (rotating belt). Is stopped, pull-in control for aligning the symbols corresponding to the internal winning combination on the active line, and conversely, avoidance control for not aligning the symbols. Further, when the sub-control unit 160 receives the lottery result command and the game start signal from the main control unit 100, the effect lottery for determining whether or not to perform the effect display on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. The player is notified of the lottery result of the big hit (bonus win), small role, replay or lose.

  The main control unit 100 determines that a winning combination is established if a predetermined symbol is displayed side by side on the active line of the window 3 in each variation display game of the general game, and a game medal is awarded according to the payout table shown in FIG. It pays out from the payout device 18 and is discharged from the medal payout opening 16.

  Note that in the big bonus game (BB game) in which three red 7s are arranged, the BB game mode is ended when the accessory continuous operation device operates and the acquired number exceeds 360. In addition, in the regular bonus game (RB game) in which three blue 7s are arranged, the RB game mode is ended when the accessory continuous operation device operates and the acquired number exceeds 120.

  And the main control part 100 will return to step S130, and will repeat a process sequentially, after complete | finishing the game main process of step S170.

  FIG. 23 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 21 different symbols on it, which are anomalous but the bonus-actuated symbols "Pentagon (Red)", "Pentagon (Blue)", "Pentagon (White)" , "Red 7", "Bell", "Rectangle (Red)", "Rectangle (Blue)", "Rectangle (White)" of the symbols that make up the various small roles, and the replay of the symbols that act as replays are drawn It is. The three types of pentagonal symbols also serve as small roles.

  FIG. 24 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (dedicated to three general games). Do.

  FIG. 24B is an effective line when a predetermined number of game medals are inserted, and the first line (upper, middle, lower: right) in the order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c. Down), second line (lower, middle, upper: upper right), third line (upper, middle, upper: V-shaped) and fourth line (lower, middle, lower: chevron or inverted V-shaped) Becomes effective. Note that, in the bonus game (RB: when the first type special character is activated), the prescribed number of game medals is two, but the effective lines are exactly the same in the first to fourth lines.

  FIG. 25 is a payout table when an accessory is not in operation (during a normal game, the specified number is 3).

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning or operating on an effective line (see FIG. 24) corresponding to the number of inserted game medals. In this case, the effective lines are the same regardless of the number of inserted sheets (3 or 2 sheets).

  (1) Bonus combination (RB: first type special combination): left drum 2a (pentagon (red), pentagon (blue), pentagon (white)), middle drum 2b (pentagon (red), This is the name of a pentagon (blue) or pentagon (white)), or when ((pentagon (red), pentagon (blue), pentagon (white)) stops on the active line on the right drum 2c. The regular bonus game will be awarded after that, and there are 27 kinds of combination symbols (3 × 3 × 3), and when the player wins the game alone, the stop operation sequence of the stop button 10 Regardless of the timing, the symbol is arranged on any one of the active lines so that the predetermined bonus role symbol is stopped and the player always wins. It is supposed to end, but There will be no increase / decrease in medals because there are always 2 winnings and 2 small roles will be won, while the expected increase / decrease in regular bonus games will be 0 and the winning small role will be missed. In the initial state (RT0 state: replay probability is about 1 / 7.3), the bonus combination (RB) is won internally. When the condition device is activated, the winning probability of the replay changes from the next game to a high probability replaying state (RT1 state: replay probability about 1 / 1.8). At the end (operation end), the winning probability of replay fluctuates and returns to the initial state (RT0 state), that is, the player is in the RT0 state, RT1 state, regular bonus game state. Will perform variable display game Re or gaming state. In this initial state, usually a general game during the game (see Figure 26).

  (2) Red 7 small part (FR1: first target small part): Name of the case when the left drum 2a is stopped with the red symbol on the left drum 2a, the bell drum symbol on the middle drum 2b, and the bell symbol on the right drum 2c. Thus, the acquired number (paid-out number) is 15. When a red 7 small combination is won internally by lottery, one condition device for FR1 (fruit 1) is activated. Assuming that FR1 has only one type of combination symbol and has won an internal winning independently, regardless of the stop operation sequence or timing of the stop button unit 10, the predetermined red 7 small role symbol is on any one of the active lines. The symbols are arranged to stop and win a prize. As will be described later, in the red 0 small role, in the RT0 state or the RT1 state, the single small role left 1 to 3 for the push order control, the 1 small small character 1 to 3, the single small role right 1 It is designed to win simultaneously with one of the three. The first target small combination is a small combination that should be won, and is advantageous to the player.

  (3) Bell small combination (FR2: second target small combination): This is the name of the combination when the bell symbols are aligned on the active line, and the number obtained is two. When the bell small combination is elected in the lottery, one condition device for FR2 (fruit 2) is activated. Assuming that FR2 has only one type of combination symbol and has won an internal winning independently, regardless of the stop operation sequence and timing of the stop button unit 10, the bell symbol stops on any one of the active lines and always wins a prize. The pattern is arranged like this. As will be described later, in the RT0 state or the RT1 state, the bell small combination is one-sided small left 1 to 3 for pushing order control, one to three small ones, and one small small right to 1-3. Any one of these will be won simultaneously. The second target small combination is a small combination that should be won, and is advantageous to the player.

  The single small combination for controlling the pressing order is a small combination for drawing the bonus combination described above (bonus pulling small combination). In this embodiment, there are nine types, and at the same time when the pressing order of the stop button portion is correct. The winning red 7 small combination (first target small combination) or bell small combination (second target small combination) wins, while one incorrect small combination or bonus combination winning simultaneously is won. If the answer is incorrect, the probability that the bonus combination is won is 2/3.

  (4) One small part left 1 (FR3): The left drum 2a has a square (brown) design, and the middle drum 2b has a (pentagon (red), pentagon (blue), pentagon (white) design, right This is the title when one of the symbols (pentagonal (red), pentagonal (blue), pentagonal (white)) on the drum 2c is stopped on the active line. It becomes a sheet. When the one small role left 1 is won internally by lottery, one condition device for FR3 (fruit 3) is activated. Assuming that the FR3 has nine types of combination symbols and the internal winning is performed independently, if the left stop button 10a is operated at a timing when the square (brown) symbol is retracted, the stop operation sequence and timing of the other stop button portions 10 are changed. Regardless, the symbols are arranged on any one of the active lines so that a predetermined one small role left one symbol stops and wins. On the contrary, if the left stop button 10a is operated at a timing at which the square (brown) symbol cannot be drawn, a loss occurs. Incidentally, 1 is stored as the pressing order data in which the first stop operation means the left stop button 10a in association with the left small 1 left (01 in 2-bit binary number). However, it is possible to set a logic so as to guide that the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a if one small left is 1 by the push order determination program. In general, push order data is stored in relation to the required data capacity.

  (5) One-piece small combination left 2 (FR4): One-sheet small combination left 1 is that the design of the left drum 2a is changed to a square (blue) design, and the others are the same, so the description is omitted.

  (6) One small part left 3 (FR5): One small part left 1 is that the design of the left drum 2a is changed to a square (white) design, and the rest is the same, and the description thereof is omitted.

  (7) 1 small part 1 (FR6): left drum 2a (Pentagon (red), pentagon (blue), pentagon (white)), square drum 2b square (brown), right This is the title when one of the symbols (pentagonal (red), pentagonal (blue), pentagonal (white)) on the drum 2c is stopped on the active line. It becomes a sheet. When 1 out of 1 small roles is won internally by lottery, one condition device of FR6 (fruit 6) is activated. Assuming that the FR6 has nine types of combination symbols and the internal winning is performed independently, if the middle stop button 10b is operated at the timing when the square (brown) symbol is retracted, the stop operation sequence and timing of the other stop button portions 10 are changed. Regardless, the symbols are arranged on any one of the active lines so that one symbol in a given small piece stops and wins. On the contrary, if the middle stop button 10b is operated at a timing at which the square (brown) symbol cannot be drawn, a loss occurs. As described above, 2 is stored as the pressing order data in which the first stop operation means the middle stop button 10b in association with one of the small ones (two 10-bit binary numbers).

  (8) 1 small piece 2 (FR7): 1 small piece 1 is that the design of the middle drum 2b is changed to a square (blue) design, and the rest is the same, so the description is omitted.

  (9) 1 small piece 3 (FR8): 1 small piece 1 is that the design of the medium drum 2b is changed to a square (white) design, and the rest is the same, so the description is omitted.

  (10) One small role right 1 (FR9): (Pentagon (red), pentagon (blue), pentagon (white)) on the left drum 2a, and (pentagon (red), pentagon on the middle drum 2b) (Blue) or pentagon (white)), and the right drum 2c is a title when a square (brown) symbol (9 types of symbol combinations) is aligned on the active line and stopped. It becomes a sheet. When one small role right 1 is elected internally by lottery, one condition device of FR9 (fruit 9) is activated. Assuming that the FR9 has nine types of combination symbols and the internal winning is performed independently, if the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing when the square (brown) symbol is retracted, the stop operation order and timing of the other stop button portions 10 are Regardless, the symbols are arranged on any one of the active lines so that one symbol in a given small piece stops and wins. On the other hand, if the right stop button 10c is operated at a timing at which the square (brown) symbol cannot be drawn, a loss occurs. In addition, as described above, 3 is stored as the pressing order data in which the first stop operation means the right stop button 10c in association with the single small role right 1 (11 in 2-bit binary number).

  (11) One small combination right 2 (FR10): One small combination right 1 is that the design of the right drum 2c is changed to a square (blue) design, and the others are the same, so the description is omitted.

  (12) One small combination right 3 (FR11): One small combination right 1 is that the design of the right drum 2c is changed to a square (white) design, and the rest is the same, so the description is omitted.

  (13) Replay (replay): This is the title when three replay symbols are aligned on the active line. In contrast to this, no medal is acquired, and when the RP flag is set in the flag area, Or if you win simultaneously with other small roles or bonus roles, replay will always work. Replay has one type of combination symbol, and the player can operate the next game without inserting medals by operating the start lever 9. Note that even if the replay is activated, it does not trigger a change in RT (replay winning probability).

  This embodiment is to explain the basic configuration. In addition to the above-mentioned winning combination, for example, a rare small combination such as cherry or watermelon, another special replay combination or a red 7 replay combination that is won only during a bonus game ( It is also possible to provide a replay role in which red 7 symbols appear to be aligned on the upper horizontal line, middle horizontal line, or lower horizontal line, which are invalid lines. When these rare small roles are elected internally, an ART lottery is performed, or an ART is determined by the internal winning of the red 7 replay role, and a plurality of sets of ARTs are given by the lottery.

  FIG. 26 is a conceptual diagram showing a game state transition diagram and lottery probabilities of various combinations. FIG. 26B shows a lottery probability in a general game, FIG. 26C shows a lottery probability inside the RB, and FIG. 26D shows a lottery probability in the RB.

  In FIG. 26 (A), the general game (denoted as “general game” in the figure) starts from the next game after the regular bonus game (RB game) is completed or the next game after the stage setting value is re-entered. . The replay probability (probability that replay is won) in this general game is about 1 / 7.3.

  When an RB that is a bonus combination wins internally and RB wins in that game, the RB game starts from the next game. The RB game ends with eight games or eight wins, and enters a normal replay state in which the winning probability of the replay role is low from the next game. While the player is playing a game, the general game (decrease of medals in the normal replay state) → RB wins internally → RB winning → RB game 8 times → RB game end → general game is repeated.

  On the other hand, even if the RB is won internally in the general game, if the RB winning is avoided, the RT state where the bonus combination is won internally (inside the RB) is entered (see the hatched portion in FIG. 26A). As will be described later, since there is no losing (unfair election) in the RT state, the player can play a variable display game in an advantageous gaming state.

  In the general game (see FIG. 26B), the number of RBs is 12000, and the winning probability is 12000/65536. The number of RBs, Bell small combination and single small combination winning simultaneously is 6000, and the winning probability is 6000/65536. The number of red 7 winning combinations and 1 winning combination is 23000, and the winning probability is 23000/65536. The number of replays is 8978, and the winning probability is 8978/65536 (1 / 7.3). On the other hand, the probability of losing (losing) is 15558/65536 (1 / 4.2).

  Inside the RB (see FIG. 26C), the RB lottery is not performed, so the winning probability is zero. Note that the inside of the RB is a state in which the RB flag is set and the RB is already hit. During the inside of this RB, a high-probability re-playing state (RT state) in which the winning probability of replay varies. The lottery area of the RB placement number 12000 shown in FIG. 26B and the placement number 15558 which was unsuccessful (losing) becomes a new replay winning region. Therefore, 36536, which is the original replay number 8978 plus the number 12000 and the number 15558, becomes a number, and the winning probability of replay is 36536/65536 (about 1 / 1.8), and the number of unfair wins is 0. It becomes. That is, in the inside of the RB where there is no losing, the AT function is activated to notify the push order for winning the red 7 small role or the bell small role, thereby allowing the player to efficiently acquire medals.

  Calculating the expected value inside the RB, the probability of winning the red 7 small role is 23000/65536, and the increase is 12 (15 payouts-3 inserts), so 4.2 / game Become. On the other hand, the probability of winning the bell small role is 6000/65536, and the increased number is −1 (2 payouts−3 inserts), so −0.09 / game. Even if a replay is won, the next game can be played without inserting medals, so the expected value does not change. Therefore, if the AT activates inside the RB and wins the Red 7 small part and the Bell small part, it will increase on average by about 4.1 cards / game, and the maximum net increase in Unit 5 will be increased. Can be achieved.

  During the RB (see FIG. 26D), the number of the bell small role is 65536, and the winning probability is 100%. Since there are two payouts and two inserts, there is no increase or decrease in medals during this period. However, if a plurality of types of small roles are drawn out and the specifications are such that they are missed in the pressing order, the expected value of the obtained number can be lowered intentionally.

  FIG. 27 is a conceptual diagram showing a simultaneous winning state of a combination.

  FIG. 27A shows a state in which RB, a bell small part (FR2), and a single small part (FR3) are won at the same time during a general game (normal time) (see FIG. 26B). Since the pushing order data of one small combination (FR3) is 1, the left stop button 10a is the correct operation order.

  FIG. 27B shows a state in which a red 7 small combination (FR1) and a single small combination (FR7) are won at the same time during a general game (see FIG. 26B). Since the pressing order data for one small combination (FR7) is 2, the middle stop button 10b is the correct operation order.

  FIG. 27C shows a state in which the red seven small combination (FR1) and the single small combination (FR11) are won at the same time inside the RB (see FIG. 26C). Of course, the RB flag is set in the inside of the RB, and the RB is selected even if the RB is not drawn. Since the pressing order data of one small combination (FR11) is 3, the right stop button 10c is the correct operation order.

  FIG. 28 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  For example, in the general game, when the RB, the bell small part (FR2) and the single small part (FR3) shown in FIG. 26 (B) and FIG. 27 (A) are won simultaneously by random lottery, the RB flag, the FR2 flag And the FR3 flag is set.

  When the player operates the left stop button 10a at the first stop while all the drums in the drum unit 2 are rotating, the main control unit 100 stores the control information (the bell symbol is drawn at the first left stop). ) (The push order is “correct”), and regardless of the order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation thereafter, only the bell small role is always won by the stop control process, Pay out the medal. That is, the main control unit 100 starts a variable display game that fluctuates three symbol sequences, and RB, bell small role (second target small role), and push order regulation by a lottery of a combination (also referred to as “design lottery”). One small combination (9 types of symbol combinations) that is a small combination is simultaneously won internally. When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the order of pressing (left first) stored corresponding to the one small combination, the bell symbol is stopped on the active line and the bell small combination is won. Further, as will be described later, if the pressing order is correct, stop control is performed so that neither an RB that is won internally or a single winning combination will be awarded at the same time.

  FIG. 28A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player makes the first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the stop operation is performed when red 7 of No. 9 is at the reference position (the state in which red 7 of No. 9 can be immediately stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a. See FIG. 28B), the main control unit 100 sets the effective line Pull-in control is performed so that only one bell symbol stops at any point. In this case, no. 5 is stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 28C). As a result, the left drum 2a slides four frames and stops. Note that the main control unit 100 can stop the square (brown) symbol of one small combination (FR3) that is won simultaneously on the active line, but constitutes a small bell combination with a large number of payouts. The bell symbol is stopped. However, the main control unit 100 is configured to perform stop control so that the bonus combination symbol is prioritized and aligned when the bonus combination and the small combination can be drawn.

  FIG. 29 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 29 (A) is the same as FIG. 28 (C). When the left drum 2a is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the lower stage, the player stops the middle stop button 10b in the second stop. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. The bell symbol 8 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 29B). Since the five bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames at the farthest, any bell symbol in the pull-in range should be stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b to be in a tempered state. Is possible. Further, the tempering state in FIG. 29B is also referred to as a “reach state” of a predetermined role as a synonym.

  When the player performs a stop operation on the right stop button 10c in the third stop in the tempered state of FIG. 7 is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 29C). Since the six bell symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged within an interval of four frames, any bell symbol can be arbitrarily stopped at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c to win a prize. (Second line in the figure). If it stops at the upper stage, it becomes a strong bell and an AT lottery is performed with high probability.

  FIG. 30 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 30 (A) is the same as FIG. 29 (A), and when the player stops the right stop button 10c in the second stop in a state where the left drum 2a is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the lower stage. In the same manner as in FIG. 7 is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 30B). In addition, since the six bell symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged within an interval of four frames, any bell symbol in the pull-in range is stopped at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c to be in a tempered state. Is possible.

  When the player performs the stop operation of the middle stop button 10b in the third stop in the tempered state of FIG. The bell symbol 8 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 30C). Since the five bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames at the farthest, any bell symbol in the pull-in range can be stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b and awarded. (The second line in the figure). In other words, if any one of the RB, the bell small combination, and the left first single small combination (FR3 to FR5) is won at the same time, if the first pressing order is the left stop button 10a, any operation is performed thereafter. The bell small combination wins, but the RB or single small combination does not win. As a result, in the variable display game after the next game, the player enters the high probability re-gaming state (RT state) during the RB internal winning, so that the player can play the game without being unfairly (losing). The sub-control unit 160 uses the display effect device 11 and the speaker unit 12 in the AT state to notify a predetermined first order (in this case, left first) for winning the bell small role.

  FIG. 31 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 31 (A) shows a state where all the drums of the drum section 2 are rotating, as in FIG. 28 (A). In this state, the player stops the middle stop button 10b at the first stop, for example, No. When the stop operation is performed when the pentagon (red) 1 is at the reference position (the No. 1 pentagon (red) can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the middle drum 2b; see FIG. 31B), the main control unit 100 Is the middle position of the middle drum 2b through which the effective line passes, Seventeen pentagonal (white) symbols are stopped (see FIG. 31C). As a result, the middle drum 2b slides for 4 frames and stops. The main control unit 100 can also stop the bell symbol (No. 19) of the bell winning combination (FR2) simultaneously selected on the active line. This means that the order of pressing is wrong, so that the pentagonal (white) symbol of the single small role (FR3) within the drawing frame number range is stopped on the active line. Also, no matter what timing the player operates the middle drum 2b at the first stop, the pentagon (red) symbol, pentagon that forms the one-piece small role (FR3) that is arranged at the farthest four frame intervals Any one of the (blue) symbol and the pentagonal (white) symbol can be stopped at the middle position. However, the reason why the main control unit 100 does not draw in the bell symbol is that the number of symbol combinations is 3 (square (brown), pentagon (white), pentagon (red / blue / white) when one small role symbol is drawn. On the other hand, the number of symbol combinations when the bell small role symbol is drawn is 1, and in any case, the number of symbol combinations is larger for the single small size symbol (FR3) than for the bell small role. is there. That is, if the pushing order of the first stop is incorrect, the symbols constituting the one-piece small combination (FR3) can be drawn on the active line and stopped. And since this 1 piece small role symbol serves as RB symbol, as a result, the symbol of both roles is drawn.

  FIG. 32 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 32 (A) is the same as FIG. 31 (C). When the player stops the right stop button 10c in the second stop in the state where the middle drum 2b is stopped and the replay symbol is displayed in the lower stage. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. 3 pentagonal (red) symbol is stopped at the lower stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 32B). The pentagon (red) symbol, pentagon (blue) symbol, or pentagon (white) symbol constituting the one small role (FR3) is arranged at intervals of 6 frames on the right drum 2c, and therefore is in the drawing range. Any pentagonal (red / blue / white) symbol can be stopped at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c to make a tempered state. In this case, not only the single small combination (FR3) but also the RB combination is in the tempering state (double tempering state).

  In the double tempering state shown in FIG. 32 (B), the player stops the left stop button 10a at the third stop, If the stop operation is performed when the bell symbol 5 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 causes the No. 5 The four square (brown) symbols are stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a, and the one-piece small combination (FR3) is awarded on the fourth line (see FIG. 32C). In addition, No. No. 10 discarded pattern-No. When the left stop button 10a is stopped when the square (brown) pattern of No. 4 is at the reference position, No. 4 is displayed. The four square (brown) symbols can be stopped on the first line or the fourth line, and a single small combination (FR3) can be won. In other words, since the stop operation may be performed within the range of 7 frames out of 21 frames, the winning probability is 1/3. As a result, in the variable display game after the next game, the player enters the high probability re-gaming state (RT state) during the RB internal winning, so that the player can play the game without being unfairly (losing).

  FIG. 33 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 33A shows the same double tempered state as FIG. 32B, and the player stops the left stop button 10a in the third stop, When the stop operation is performed when the discarded symbol 3 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 causes the 1 pentagonal (red) symbol is stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a, and the RB combination is won on the fourth line (see FIG. 33B).

  Further, in the state of FIG. 33A, the player stops the left stop button 10a at the third stop, When the stop operation is performed when the square (blue) of 11 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 is moved to No. 3 above 3 frames. The pentagonal (blue) symbol of 8 is stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a, and the RB combination is won on the fourth line (see FIG. 33C). That is, no. 1-No. 3 or No. 11-No. When the player stops the left stop button 10a when any of the 21 symbols is at the reference position, the RB symbol stops on the first line or the fourth line, and the RB combination wins. That is, if the stop operation is performed in the range of 14 frames out of 21 frames, the RB combination will win, and the winning probability is 2/3. As a result, the next game becomes a bonus game, and the game is played without increasing the number of medals. Note that, when the left stop button 10a is operated in the second stop, the winning mode is the same as a result, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  FIG. 34 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  For example, in a general game, if the red 7 small combination (FR1) and the single small combination (FR7) shown in FIG. 26 (B) and FIG. 27 (B) are won simultaneously by random lottery, the FR1 flag and the FR7 flag are set. stand.

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b at the first stop while all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating, the main control unit 100 stores the control information (the bell symbol is drawn at the middle first stop). ) (The push order is “correct answer”), regardless of the order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation thereafter, only the red 7 small combination is always won by the stop control process. Pay out medals. That is, the main control unit 100 starts a variable display game that fluctuates three symbol sequences, and by a lottery of a combination, a red seven small combination (first target small combination) and a single small combination (a first order small combination ( Nine kinds of symbol combinations) are simultaneously won internally. When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the pressing order (medium first) stored corresponding to the one small combination, the bell symbol is stopped on the active line and the red seven small combination is won. Further, as will be described later, if the pressing order is correct, stop control is performed so as not to win the single winning combination that is won internally.

  FIG. 34A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player stops the middle stop button 10b at the first stop, When the bell symbol 8 is in the reference position and the stop operation is performed (a state in which the No. 7 pentagonal (blue) symbol can be immediately stopped at the middle position of the middle drum 2b. See FIG. 34B), the main control unit 100 Pull-in control is performed so that the bell symbol stops on the effective line. In this case, no. 3 is stopped at the middle position of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 34C). As a result, the middle drum 2b slides for 4 frames and stops. In this case, the main control unit 100 cannot stop on the active line because the single winning combination (FR7) quadrilateral (blue) symbol is not in the drawing range.

  FIG. 35 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 35 (A) is the same as FIG. 34 (C). When the player stops the right stop button 10c in the second stop in the state where the middle drum 2b is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the middle stage. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. 11 bell symbols are stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 35B). Since the six bell symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged at intervals of three frames at the farthest, stop any bell symbol in the pull-in range at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c, and enter the tempering state. Is possible.

  When the player stops the left stop button 10a at the third stop in the tempered state of FIG. 2 red 7 symbols are stopped at the lower stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 35C). Since the three red 7 symbols on the left drum 2a are arranged at intervals of 6 frames, one of the red 7 symbols is stopped at the upper or lower level of the left drum 2a and the red 7 small combination (FR1) is awarded. Is possible (second line in the figure). Even if the left stop button 10a is operated in the second stop and the right stop button 10c is operated in the third stop, the red 7 small combination (FR1) always wins in the same manner, and the winning mode is the same as a result. Description is omitted.

  FIG. 36 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 36 (A) shows a state where all the drums of the drum section 2 are rotating, as in FIG. 34 (A). In this state, the player makes a first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the replay symbol of No. 7 is at the reference position and the stop operation is performed (the state where the No. 7 replay symbol can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the left drum 2a, see FIG. 36B), the main control unit 100 has an active line In the upper position of the left drum 2a passing through, No. 1 pentagonal (red) symbol is stopped (see FIG. 36C). As a result, the left drum 2a slides four frames and stops. The main control unit 100 can also stop the red 7 symbol (No. 2) of the red 7 small combination (FR1) simultaneously selected on the active line. Since it means first and the pressing order is wrong, the pentagon (red) symbol of the single small role (FR7) within the drawing frame number range is stopped on the active line. Also, no matter what timing the player stops the left drum 2a at the first stop, the pentagonal (red) symbol constituting the one small part (FR7) arranged at the farthest 6-frame interval, Any one of the pentagon (blue) symbol and the pentagon (white) symbol can be stopped at the upper or lower position. However, the main control unit 100 does not draw in the red 7 symbol because the number of symbol combinations is 3 (pentagon (red), square (blue), pentagon (red / blue / white). )) On the other hand, the number of symbol combinations when a red 7 small role symbol is drawn is 1, and in either case, the single small role (FR7) is more red than the red 7 small role. Because there are many. In other words, when the pressing order of the first stop is incorrect, the symbols constituting the one-piece small combination (FR7) can be drawn on the active line and stopped. In addition, since this 1-piece small role symbol also serves as an RB symbol, if the RB is winning internally, the symbol of both roles is eventually drawn.

  FIG. 37 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 37 (A) is the same as FIG. 36 (C). In the state where the left drum 2a is stopped and the pentagonal (red) symbol is displayed in the upper stage, the player presses the right stop button 10c at the second stop. When the stop operation is performed, the main control unit 100, for example, No. No. 3 pentagonal (red) symbol is stopped at the lower stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 37B). The pentagon (red) symbol, pentagon (blue) symbol, or pentagon (white) symbol constituting the one small role (FR7) is arranged at an interval of 6 frames on the right drum 2c, and is in the drawing range. Any pentagonal (red / blue / white) symbol can be stopped at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c to make a tempered state. Note that the single small role symbol that has become the tempering state also serves as the RB symbol, so if the RB is elected internally, the result is a double tempering state in which the symbols of both roles are drawn.

  In the one-game small role (FR7) tempering state shown in FIG. 37 (B), the player sets the middle stop button 10b to No. If the stop operation is performed when the 16 square (white) symbols are at the reference position, the main control unit 100 is set to No. 5 above 5 frames. Eleven square (blue) symbols are stopped at the middle position of the middle drum 2b, and the one-piece small combination (FR7) is won on the first line (see FIG. 37C). In addition, No. No. 16 square (white) design-No. When the middle stop button 10b is operated to stop when the square (blue) symbol of 11 is at the reference position, No. 11 is displayed. 10 or No. Eleven square (blue) symbols can be stopped on the first line to win a single small role (FR7). In other words, since it is only necessary to perform a stop operation within the range of 6 frames out of 21 frames, the winning probability is 3/7, but if it is operated at other timings, it will be lost. Even if the middle stop button 10b is operated at the second stop and the right stop button 10c is operated at the third stop, the single small role (FR7) is similarly won or lost, and the winning mode is the same as a result. Therefore, the description is omitted.

  FIG. 38 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  In the game inside the RB shown in FIG. 26 (C), the RB flag is set. In the inside of the RB, for example, the red 7 small combination (FR1) and one piece shown in FIG. When the small role (FR11) is won at the same time, the FR1 flag and the FR11 flag are set. Therefore, as an internal state, as a result, the RB flag, the FR1 flag, and the FR11 flag are set (see FIGS. 26C and 27C).

  When the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop while all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating, the main control unit 100 stores the control information (the bell symbol is drawn at the first right stop). ) (The push order is “correct answer”), regardless of the order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation thereafter, only the red 7 small combination is always won by the stop control process. Pay out medals. That is, the main control unit 100 starts a variable display game that fluctuates three symbol sequences, and RB, red 7 small role (first target small role) and push order by a lottery of a combination (also referred to as “design lottery”). A single small role (9 types of symbol combinations), which is a specified small role, is simultaneously won internally. When the stop button portion 10 is operated in the order of pressing (right first) stored in correspondence with this one small combination, the bell symbol constituting the red seven small combination is stopped on the active line and the red seven small combination is Win a prize. Further, as will be described later, if the pressing order is correct, stop control is performed so that neither an RB that is won internally or a single winning combination will be awarded at the same time.

  FIG. 38A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the first stop, When the stop operation is performed when the bell symbol 4 is at the reference position (the state in which the bell symbol No. 4 can immediately stop at the lower position of the right drum 2c. See FIG. 38B), the main control unit 100 Pull-in control is performed so that only one bell symbol stops at any point. In this case, no. The bell symbol 21 is stopped at the lower position of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 38C). It is possible to stop the bell symbol at the upper or lower stage on the effective line by stopping the bite or by sliding two frames, but since it is a particularly powerful “slip red 7 small part”, as a result, the right drum 2c The player who has confirmed that will slide 4 frames and will expect to win the ART. Similarly, there is a strong role “one slide small role”. Note that the main control unit 100 can also stop the square (white) symbol of the single small role (FR11) that is simultaneously selected at the upper position on the active line, but the red 7 small with a large number of payouts. The bell symbols constituting the role are stopped on the active line. However, the main control unit 100 is configured to perform stop control so that the bonus combination symbol is prioritized and aligned when the bonus combination and the small combination can be drawn.

  FIG. 39 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 39 (A) is the same as FIG. 38 (C), and when the player stops the middle stop button 10b in the second stop when the right drum 2c is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the lower stage. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. The bell symbol 8 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 39B). Since the five bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames at the farthest, any bell symbol in the pull-in range is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b regardless of the timing of the stop operation. It can be made into a tempered state.

  When the player performs a stop operation on the left stop button 10a in the third stop in the tempered state of FIG. 2 red 7 symbols are stopped at the upper stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 39C). Since the three red 7 symbols on the left drum 2a are arranged at intervals of 6 frames, it is possible to win any of the red 7 symbols by stopping at the upper or lower level of the left drum 2a ( The first line in the figure). When the top 7 stops red with the aim of the red 7 symbol, it becomes the strongest red 7 small role, and the AT lottery is performed with a high probability (for example, a winning rate of 50%). On the other hand, in the case of a weak red 7 small combination, it slides and the red 7 symbol stops at the lower position. Accordingly, if the pressing order is correct, the RB internal winning state is maintained, so that the player can play the game without losing.

  FIG. 40 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 40 (A) shows a state where all the drums of the drum section 2 are rotating, as in FIG. 38 (A). In this state, the player makes a first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the replay symbol of No. 7 is at the reference position and the stop operation is performed (the state where the No. 7 replay symbol can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the left drum 2a, see FIG. 40B), the main control unit 100 has an active line In the upper position of the left drum 2a passing through, No. 1 is stopped (see FIG. 40C). As a result, the left drum 2a slides four frames and stops. The main control unit 100 can also stop the red 7 symbol (No. 2) of the red 7 small combination (FR1) simultaneously selected on the active line, but the push order data is 3 and the right Since it means first and the pressing order is wrong, the pentagonal (red) symbol of the single small role (FR11) within the drawing frame number range is stopped on the active line. Further, no matter what timing the player stops the left drum 2a at the first stop, the pentagon (red) symbol, the pentagon (blue) that constitutes the one small role (FR11) arranged at intervals of 6 frames. ) Any one of the symbols or pentagonal (white) symbols can be stopped at the upper or lower position. However, the reason why the main control unit 100 does not draw in the red 7 symbol is that the number of symbol combinations is 3 (pentagon (red), pentagon (red / blue / white), square (white) )) On the other hand, the number of symbol combinations when the red 7 small role symbol is drawn is 1 (red 7 / bell / bell), and in either case, the single small role (FR11) is smaller in red 7 This is because there are more combinations of symbols than roles. That is, when the pushing order of the first stop is incorrect, any one of the symbols constituting the one-piece small combination (FR11) can be drawn on the active line and stopped. In addition, since this 1-piece small role symbol also serves as an RB symbol, if the RB is winning internally, the symbol of both roles is eventually drawn.

  FIG. 41 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 41 (A) is the same as FIG. 40 (C). In the state where the left drum 2a is stopped and the pentagonal (red) symbol is displayed in the upper stage, the player presses the middle stop button 10b in the second stop. For example, No. When the stop operation is performed when the pentagonal (red) symbol of No. 1 is at the reference position (the state in which the pentagonal (red) symbol of No. 1 can immediately stop at the lower position of the middle drum 2b, see FIG. 41B), the main control The part 100 is No. Seventeen pentagonal (white) symbols are stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 41C). The pentagon (red) symbol, pentagon (blue) symbol, or pentagon (white) symbol composing one small part (FR11) is arranged within the interval of 4 frames on the middle drum 2b, Any pentagonal (red / blue / white) symbol can be stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b to be in a tempered state. Note that the single small role symbol in the tempering state also serves as the RB symbol, and since the RB has won internally, the result is a double tempering state in which the symbols of both roles are drawn.

  FIG. 42 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 42 (A) is the same as FIG. 41 (C), the left drum 2a is stopped and the pentagon (red) symbol is displayed on the top, and the middle drum 2b is stopped and the pentagon (white) symbol is displayed on the middle. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the third stop, for example, No. When the replay symbol No. 5 is at the reference position and the stop operation is performed (the state where the No. 5 replay symbol can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the right drum 2c; see FIG. 42B), the main control unit 100 Twenty square (white) symbols are stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c, and a single small role (FR11) is awarded on the third line (see FIG. 42C). In addition, No. No. 5 replay symbol No. 5 When the right stop button 10c is stopped when the 20 square (white) symbols are at the reference position, No. 20 is displayed. Twenty square (white) symbols can be stopped on the first line or the third line, and one small combination (FR11) can be won. In other words, if a stop operation is performed within the range of 7 frames out of 21 frames, one small role (FR11) wins, so the winning probability is 1/3, but if it is operated at other timings, it will be described later. RB wins. Even if the right stop button 10c is operated at the second stop and the middle stop button 10b is operated at the third stop, similarly, one small role (FR7) wins or RB wins, and the winning mode is consequently changed. Since it becomes the same, description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 43 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 43 (A) is the same as FIG. 42 (A), the left drum 2a is stopped and the pentagon (red) symbol is displayed on the top, and the middle drum 2b is stopped and the pentagon (white) symbol is displayed on the middle. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the third stop, for example, No. When the stop operation is performed when the bell symbol of No. 7 is at the reference position (a state in which the bell symbol of No. 7 can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the right drum 2c), the main control unit 100 sets the No. 7 symbol. 3. Slide 3 pentagonal (red) symbols 4 frames to stop at the bottom of the right drum 2c, and win RB on the first line (see FIG. 43B). In the state shown in FIG. 43A, the player stops the third stop and presses the right stop button 10c. When the stop operation is performed when the red 7 symbol of 16 is at the reference position (the state in which the red 7 symbol of No. 16 can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the right drum 2c), the main control unit 100 sets the No. 16 symbol. 10 pentagonal (blue) symbols are slid by 4 frames and stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c, and RB is awarded on the third line (see FIG. 43C). In other words, if the operation order of the stop button portion 10 is wrong, one small role wins with a probability of 1/3 and maintains the RB internal winning state, while the RB wins with a probability of 2/3 and the RB game is played. When it starts and ends, it returns to the general game and enters a state of losing. In other words, if the RB wins an internal 7th prize, the Red 7 small role (FR1), the Bell small role (FR2), and the 1 small size role (FR3 to FR11) win a prize. Since the high-probability re-gaming state (RT state) is entered, the player can play in a state where the player does not become unfair (losing).

  FIG. 44 is a flowchart showing a symbol stop processing subroutine. A solid line indicates processing executed by the main control unit 100, and a broken line indicates processing executed by the sub-control unit 160.

  In the game main process of step S170 in FIG. 22, the main control unit 100 executes random number lottery (role of symbols or symbol lottery) in accordance with the player's operation of the start lever 9 (start signal reception timing). After calling the subroutine, the symbol variation display game is started by rotating the drum unit 2.

  In step S200, the main control unit 100 outputs a notification signal (command, data, etc.), and displays the lottery result and internal state (bonus flag, normal replay state or RT state, number of digested games after bonus, etc.) as the sub-control unit 160. And the process proceeds to step S210 described later.

  When the sub-control unit 160 receives the notification signal, it is determined in step SS100 whether any of the composite small roles (see FIG. 25, FIG. 26B and FIG. 26C) is won by a command, data, or the like. If it has not been won, an effect corresponding to another winning combination is performed and the process ends. If it has been won, the process proceeds to step SS110.

  In step SS110, the sub-control unit 160 confirms whether or not there is a remaining game number during AT, and if there is no remaining game number, the process proceeds to step SS120, and if there is an AT stock, the process proceeds to step SS130.

  In step SS120, the sub-control unit 160 checks whether or not the AT stock is present and whether the condition for releasing (invoking the AT function) is satisfied. If not, the sub-control unit 160 ends. Migrate to

  In step SS130, the sub-control unit 160 activates the AT function, notifies the pressing order of the stop button operation corresponding to the composite winning combination, and finishes this process. Specifically, this AT function is used with male voices such as “left”, “middle”, “right”, and female voices “left”, “middle”, “right”. The video is displayed on the display effect device 11 as a video.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S210, the composite winning combination is the internal winning combination, and the main control unit 100 is stopped in the pressing order corresponding to the combined winning combination (ie, the pressing order is correct). If, in step S220, the target small combination is won and the process ends, the process proceeds to step S230 if the push order is incorrect. Although not shown in the figure, if the winning combination is not a composite small winning combination, a predetermined stop control is performed according to another internal winning combination, and the process ends.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S230, first, the main control unit 100 always stops one symbol constituting the bonus drawing small combination on the active line. When the process proceeds to step S240, if the subsequent stop operation timing is met, the main control unit 100 finishes by winning the bonus pull-in small part in step S250, and if the stop operation timing is not matched, the process proceeds to step S260. Transition.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S260, if the bonus is being won internally, a bonus combination is won in step S270. If the bonus is not being won internally, the drum unit 2 is lost in step S280. Stop and exit.

  FIG. 45 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  The sub-control unit 160 switches and displays the effect video displayed on the display effect device 11 according to the gaming state. FIG. 45A shows a daytime stage screen, which is used in a state where the AT winning probability is low. FIG. 45 (B) is a night stage screen, which is mainly used in a state where the AT winning probability is high, and when this screen is displayed, the player is excited by the expectation of AT release. The sub-control unit 160 performs an AT lottery (AT bonus release lottery) and a high-precision lottery after a rare small role (for example, a middle tier cherry, strong watermelon, strong bell, etc.) is won. When winning in this high-precision lottery, while switching from the normal screen at noon to the night screen, every time a replay wins during AT high-precision, a falling lottery will be performed with a predetermined probability, so during normal games the normal screen of the day And the night screen are displayed alternately at a predetermined frequency. In general, these display screens change the time, weather, etc. depending on the stay mode such as low probability state, high probability state, RB internal winning, etc. in order to suggest the correct mode to the player. The player's expectation can be further enhanced by appropriately performing the production (fake production). In addition, normal announcement effects corresponding to various winning combinations are executed.

  FIG. 45 (C) is a night screen. When the player operates the start lever from the night stage screen to start the variable display game, the sub-control unit 160 has a predetermined condition such as when a rare small role is won. Assist lottery (AT lottery) is performed every time it is established. When the sub-control unit 160 performs the AT lottery, the sub-control unit 160 performs an effect of dropping the brightness on the night stage screen together with thundering in accordance with the operation timing of the stop button unit 10 in order to notify the player of that fact. In addition, when the AT is won at the time of displaying the day stage, the light is changed suddenly from the day stage screen to the night stage screen, and at least two lightning continuous effects are performed to suggest a sign of AT emission. Then, when the lightning effect is performed three times continuously from the day stage screen and the brightness is dropped three times in accordance with the operation timing of the stop button unit 10, the AT release confirmation (AT bonus confirmation) is notified. Therefore, it is possible to increase the player's expectation by appropriately generating thunder and shininess.

  As a precursor of other AT releases, the night screen is used along with a sound effect of “Gorologo Dockern”. In particular, during the warning effect at the time of the general game shown in FIG. 26, when “RB + Bell small part + 1 sheet small part” is elected internally, the stop button unit 10 may be temporarily stopped together with the intense AT effect of AT activation. After making it impossible to freeze, a notification is made of the pressing order for winning the bell small role. As a result, it is possible to lead to a bonus internal winning state. In addition, if the “Red 7 small combination and 1 small combination” shown in FIG. 26 is internally won during the sign of the AT bonus release, the pressing order for winning the Red 7 small combination is notified.

  The AT lottery described above is also called a navigation lottery (abbreviated name of “navigation lottery”), and when the AT function is activated, the sub-control unit 160 stops in order to win a push order small portion (target small portion). The operation order of the button unit 10 is notified. In addition, when winning in the AT lottery, the AT function is not activated immediately, but is added and stored as AT stock (stored or stored), and released at once at a desired timing, so that a large number of medals can be played. Can be acquired by a person. For example, after a red 7-match special replay with a very low winning probability (red 7 replay role that appears to have red 7 symbols aligned on the upper horizontal line, middle horizontal line, or lower horizontal line, which are invalid lines) In the RT state (high probability re-playing state), if you release all AT stock for one set of 50 games and perform an AT lottery during the ART, the ART will continue indefinitely without reducing the possession by the RT. A lump of ball can be created.

  FIG. 46 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  When the sub-control unit 160 announces the AT win, the sub-control unit 160 displays the night stage screen again (see FIG. 46A) in the next variable display game in which the final effect shown in FIG. In response to the operation of the unit 10, two bats with a plate approach from a distance, and gradually display “BONUS” characters so that they can be recognized (see FIG. 46 (B)), and finally fly away. Perform bat announcement production.

  Also, from the state where the night stage screen is displayed, scroll the display screen to the right, the cemetery is expanded and the butler of the character digs with the cry of "Ollya" and the sound effect of "Tiroro Lorne" It is good also as a very hot premiere effect for a player by making the hero character appear from the grave hole in the center of the raised screen (see FIG. 46C).

  47 to 48 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  As described above, when the first game is started by the player's operation after informing the AT bonus winning, the sub-control unit 160 displays the number of remaining games and the number of acquired games on the upper right of the display effect device 11, A preparation state screen before the ART is activated is displayed (see FIG. 47A).

  The sub-control unit 160 starts the first game in preparation for the ART, and at that time, when the combined small combination (red 7 small combination + 1 small combination) is won internally, the sub small portion 160 will win the red 7 small combination that is the target small combination. The order of pressing the stop button portion 10 necessary for this is displayed with the numeral 1. In this case, the number 1 signifying the first stop operation is displayed in a large circle and pronounced “Naka” with Dracula or the hero's voice (see FIG. 47B). Red 7 small combination wins only by correctly answering the first stop operation, but if the stop operation is incorrect, one small combination (bonus pull-in small combination) wins or loses.

  When the player correctly operates the middle stop button 10b, the sub-control unit 160 changes the large circle character at the center to OK and makes it a small circle (see FIG. 47C).

  When the player operates the right stop button 10c at the second stop and the left stop button 10a at the third stop in the state of FIG. 47 (C), the sub-control unit 160 changes the character “ANY” in the right circle to “OK”. (See FIG. 48A), and then the character “ANY” in the left circle is changed to “OK”. Eventually, since the red 7 small combination wins, “15 GET” and the number of acquired coins are changed to “15” (see FIG. 48B). For example, if the first stop operation is mistaken and the left stop button 10a of incorrect answer is operated, the information “ANY” in the left circle is changed to “×” and information necessary for winning one small combination Is notified. In this case, “blue”, which means the square (blue) of the middle drum 2b to be aimed at, is enlarged and displayed (see FIG. 48C). If the middle stop button 10b is operated at the correct timing, a square (blue) symbol is drawn and one small role wins. Therefore, if the bonus is inside, it is possible to avoid winning the bonus combination. This is an innovative original technology with inventive step.

  FIG. 49 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  In the state of FIG. 48B, when the next game is started by the player's MAX betting operation, the acquired number is changed to “12”. At that time, if “RB + Bell small combination + 1 sheet small combination” is elected internally, the push order of the stop button portion 10 necessary for winning the bell small combination which is the target small combination is displayed by the numeral 1. In this case, the number 1 signifying the first stop operation is displayed in the large right circle and pronounced “Migi” in the voice of Dracula or the main character (see FIG. 49A).

  When the player correctly operates the right stop button 10c, the sub-control unit 160 changes the large circle character on the right side to OK to make a small circle (see FIG. 49B).

  When the player operates the left stop button 10a at the second stop and the middle stop button 10b at the third stop in the state of FIG. 49B, the sub-control unit 160 changes the character “ANY” in the left circle to “OK”. Next, the character “ANY” in the middle circle is changed to “OK”. Eventually, the small bell combination wins, and the bonus combination is in the RT state in the internal winning state (high probability re-playing state, see FIGS. 26A and 26C). The sub-control unit 160 changes the screen display of the display effect device 11 to “2GET / ART start”, the remaining game number “50”, and the acquired number to “14” (see FIG. 49C). On the other hand, for example, if the first stop operation is mistaken and the middle stop button 10b is incorrect, the character “ANY” in the center circle is changed to “×” and is necessary for winning one small part. Information is reported. In this case, “white”, which means the square (white) of the right drum 2c to be aimed at, is enlarged and displayed (although not shown, the same as in FIG. 48C). If the right stop button 10c is operated at the correct timing, a square (white) symbol is drawn and one small winning combination wins, and a bonus winning combination can be avoided, so that the bonus internal medium state can be maintained. This is an innovative original technology with inventive step.

  When the ART is started, (1) “RB + Bell small part + 1 sheet small part” or (2) “RB + Red 7 small part + 1 sheet small part” shown in FIG. Informs the operation order for winning the bell small role or the red 7 small role, so that the player can continue playing the game while maintaining the RT state and can acquire a large number of medals. (3) When “RB + Replay” is won internally, any one of a plurality of types of replays always wins, so there is no need to insert medals in the next game. It is also possible to change the replay combination to be won according to the order of pressing. For example, when a red 7 replay for production (replay that looks like red 7 is aligned sideways) is won, a fall replay is avoided. In some cases, the sub-control unit 160 notifies the pressing order such as reverse pressing and avoidance procedures.

  FIG. 50 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 21 symbols in a different arrangement, and although it is an anomaly, the symbol “Blue 7,” in which the bonus combination (one type of continuous action device, hereinafter referred to as “RBB”) operates. “Red 7, White Bar”, “Black Bar”, “Bell 1”, “Bell 2”, “Bell 3”, “Cherry”, “Rectangle (Red)” “Rectangle (Blue)”, “Rectangle (White)”, “Pentagon (Red)”, “Pentagon (Blue)”, “Pentagon (White)”, “Replay 1” and “Replay 2” are depicted.

  FIG. 51 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (dedicated to three general games). Do.

  FIG. 51 (B) is an effective line when a predetermined number of game medals are inserted, and the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center: left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c in that order. Only one horizontal line) is valid. In the bonus game (RBB: when the first kind of continuous action device is activated), the prescribed number of game medals is three, and the effective line is exactly the same for only the first line.

  FIG. 52 is a payout table or the like when the accessory is not in operation (during normal game, the specified number is 3).

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning or operation on an effective line (see FIG. 52) according to the number of game medals inserted. In this case, the number of inserted sheets is 3, and the effective line is only one central horizontal line.

  (1) Bonus combination (RBB: a continuous action device related to the first type special combination): Blue 7 on the left drum 2a, Red 7 on the middle drum 2b, and a white bar on the right drum 2c stopped on the active line In this case, the winning number is 0, and then a big bonus game (RBB game) is awarded. Since there is only one type of combination of bonus combinations, even if the internal winning is made independently, if the stop operation timing of the stop button portion 10 does not match, the predetermined bonus combination symbols will not stop on the active line. It will be carried over to. This RBB game ends when the number of payouts (acquired) exceeds 120. However, the number of inserted coins is 3, and the expected number of payouts per game is less than 3 as will be described later. (For example, about two cards), when the RBB game is over, the medals are almost certainly reduced in calculation (in other words, the expected value for increasing the medals in one RBB game is negative). That is, the RBB game is in a gaming state that is disadvantageous to the player. In the general gaming state (RT0 state: the replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3 of the predetermined value), if the bonus combination (RBB) is won internally (conditional device operation), the winning probability of the replay is at least after the next game. It fluctuates and becomes a high probability replay state (RT1 state: replay probability about 1 / 5.5). When this bonus combination symbol is displayed (winning) and the RBB game by the operation of the bonus combination ends (operation ends), the winning probability of replay fluctuates and returns to the initial state (RT0 state). That is, the player plays the variable display game in any one of the gaming states of the RT0 state, the RT1 state, and the RBB game state. This initial state (non-fluctuating state of the replay probability) is a transitional state (game preparation state) until the transition to the RT1 state, and there is almost no RT0 state in the actual game, and at the time of factory shipment Ship in RT1 state. Similarly, since the bonus combination won internally is rarely won, the player rarely plays the BB game (see FIG. 53A).

  (2) 1st small role (FR1: 1st target small role): Left drum 2a (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) either one of the symbols, or the middle drum 2b (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) One of the symbols, (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) on the right drum 2c is a title when any of the symbols is stopped on the effective line, and the number of obtained (paid out) is 9. When the first small role is won internally by the role lottery, the condition device of FR1 (fruit 1) stands and operates. Assuming that FR1 has nine types (3 × 3 × 3) of combinations of symbols, and the internal winning is performed independently, the predetermined bell symbol is displayed on the effective line regardless of the stop operation sequence and timing of the stop button unit 10. The symbols are arranged so that they stop and always win a prize (the bell symbols are displayed in a straight line in the center). In the RT0 state or the RT1 state, in most cases, the first small combination is won at the same time as a single small combination (inhibition small combination) for pushing order control. Note that the first target small combination is a small combination to be won, and wins when the pressing order is correct, which is advantageous to the player. On the other hand, the push order is incorrect and the inhibition small part is won or lost. When the assist function is activated, the operation order of the stop button unit 10 for winning the first target small combination is notified.

  (3) Second small role (FR2: second target small role): When the second small role wins, either the upper left drum 2a (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbol or the middle drum 2b middle Any of the (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbols and any of the (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbols are stopped and displayed in the lower stage of the right drum 2c, and the number of acquired (paid out) is Nine. However, on the effective line, for example, the replay 2 on the left drum 2a, the bell 3 on the middle drum 2b, and the square (blue) on the right drum 2c stop (see FIG. 52B). When the second small role is won internally by the role lottery, the condition device for FR2 (fruit 2) stands and operates. As for FR2, assuming that there are 9 kinds of combination symbols (3 × 3 × 3) and the internal winning is performed independently, the predetermined symbol is stopped on the effective line regardless of the stop operation sequence and timing of the stop button unit 10. The symbols are arranged so that the prize is always won (the bell symbols are displayed in a straight line from the right down). As will be described later, in the RT0 state or the RT1 state, in most cases, the second small combination is won simultaneously with a single small combination (inhibition small combination) for pushing order control. Similarly, the second target small combination is a small combination to be won, and wins when the pressing order is correct, which is advantageous for the player. On the other hand, the push order is incorrect and the inhibition small part is won or lost. When the assist function is activated, the operation order of the stop button unit 10 for winning the second target small combination is notified.

  (4) 3rd small role (FR3: 3rd target small role): When the 3rd small role wins, either the left drum 2a lower row (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) design, middle drum 2b middle row Any of the (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbols, and any of the (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbols on the right drum 2c are stopped and displayed. Nine. However, on the effective line, for example, the pentagon (white) on the left drum 2a, the bell 3 on the middle drum 2b, and the replay 1 on the right drum 2c stop (see FIG. 52C). When the third small role is won internally by the role lottery, the condition device of FR3 (fruit 3) stands and operates. Assuming that FR3 has nine types of combination symbols (3 × 3 × 3) and the internal winning is performed independently, the predetermined symbol stops on the active line regardless of the stop operation sequence and timing of the stop button unit 10. The symbols are arranged so that the prize is always won (the bell symbols are displayed in a straight line in the upper right). As will be described later, in the RT0 state or the RT1 state, in most cases, the third small combination is won simultaneously with a single small combination (inhibition small combination) for pushing order control. Similarly, the third target small combination is a small combination to be won, and wins when the pressing order is correct, which is advantageous for the player. On the other hand, the push order is incorrect and the inhibition small part is won or lost. When the assist function is activated, the operation order of the stop button unit 10 for winning the first target small combination is notified.

  (5) One small combination (inhibition small combination for pushing order control: FR4 to FRn): A small combination (bonus inhibition small combination) for preventing the above-described bonus combination from being drawn. The number of payouts) is one. In addition, it is a small combination (bonus obstruction small combination) for not drawing each target small combination when the winning combination is incorrect when any of the first to third target small combinations is won simultaneously. Note that n is an arbitrary integer, and is determined as necessary in design. As a result, the type of one small combination is n + 3.

  (6) Middle stage cherry role (FRn + 1): Cherry symbol on left drum 2a, middle drum 2b and right drum 2c are titles when (ANY symbol) is stopped on the active line, and the number obtained is 2 Become. When the middle cherry wins in the lottery, one condition device of FRn + 1 (fruit n + 1) is activated. Even if the middle-cherry role is won internally and the player operates the left stop button 10a in the vicinity of Blue 7, the bonus combination is won internally. No. 10 blue 7 symbol without stopping on the active line. No. 7 pentagon (blue) or No. 7 Since the 12 pentagons (white) are stopped and the middle cherry role is won, the bonus role is not won.

  (7) Lower cherry role (FRn + 2): Black drum on the left drum 2a (cherry on the lower row), (Bell 1 / Bell 2 / Bell 3) symbol on the middle drum, or (ANY symbol) on the right drum 2c is valid It is the name of the role when it stops together on the line, and the number acquired is two. When the lower cherry role is won internally by lottery, one condition device of FRn + 1 (fruit n + 2) is activated. Even if the lower-cherry role is won internally and the player operates the left stop button 10a in the vicinity of Blue 7, the bonus combination is won internally. No. 10 blue 7 symbol without stopping on the active line. No. 7 pentagon (blue) or No. 7 Since the 12 pentagons (white) are stopped and the lower cherry role is awarded, the bonus role is not awarded.

  (8) Replay (replay): This is the title when the replay 1 or replay 2 symbols are aligned on the active line in three drums, and no medal is obtained for this. When an internal win is made, an RP flag is set in the flag area, and even when this is won alone or when a bonus combination is simultaneously won, the replay is always won and activated. Replay has 8 types of combination symbols, and the player can operate the next game without inserting medals by operating the start lever 9. Note that even if the replay is activated, it does not trigger a change in RT (replay winning probability).

  (9) Red 7 replay (replay): This is a title when red 7 symbols are aligned on the active line for three drums, and no medal is obtained for this. When the internal win is made, a red 7RP flag is set in the flag area, but the red 7 replay is won only when the other replay combination (not shown) is won simultaneously and the push order is correct and the operation timing is correct. If you miss the push, one of the other replay roles will always win. Even if you win at the same time as the bonus combination, one of the replays will always win and operate. It is used to clearly show the player that an assist bonus (generally referred to as a “third bonus”) has been won. Red 7 replay is equivalent to the conventional big bonus. In addition, even if the red 7 replay is activated, it does not trigger a change in RT (replay winning probability).

  (10) Blue 7 replay (replay): This is a title when blue 7 is placed on the left drum 2a and red 7 symbols are placed on the other two drums on the active line, and no medal is obtained. When the internal win is made, a blue 7RP flag is set in the flag area. However, the red 7 replay is won only when the other replay combination (not shown) is won simultaneously and the push order is correct and the operation timing is correct. If you miss the push, one of the other replay roles will always win. Even if you win at the same time as the bonus combination, one of the replays will always win and operate. It is used to clearly show the player that an assist bonus (generally referred to as a “third bonus”) has been won. Red 7 replay is equivalent to the conventional big bonus. In addition, even if Blue 7 Replay is activated, it does not trigger a change in RT (replay winning probability).

  The present embodiment is to explain the basic configuration, and it is possible to provide not only the above-mentioned winning combination but also a rare small combination such as a watermelon or a chance eye, and other special replay combination as necessary. . When these rare small roles are elected internally, an AT can be added and a lottery can be performed, or a red 7 replay role can be arranged in the AT by a lottery by the sub-control unit, and a plurality of sets of ATs can be given.

  FIG. 52D is an explanatory diagram of a push order small combination in which a bell small combination (first to third small combinations: target small combination) wins when the order of pressing twice is correct.

  The push order small role (medium 1) has a plurality of kinds of bell small roles (first to third small roles) that are intended to be awarded, and a single small role group that is intended to inhibit the winning of the bell small role. One small combination (for example, red 7-square-pentagon) and other one small combination (for example, red 7) constituting a single small combination group for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the first small combination -Any one of bells 1 to 3 -pentagon etc.) is a small role that can be won (see FIG. 52D). Note that description of the other single small combination is omitted in FIG.

  When the variable display game is started, the main control unit 100 causes one of a plurality of push order small roles to be won internally by lottery, and depending on the lottery result and the operation of the stop button unit 10, the left drum 2a, the middle drum Stop control of the drum unit 2 is performed so that the 2b and the right drum 2c (a plurality of symbol rows) are stopped at predetermined positions. The ROM 101 stores the operation sequence of the stop switch as operation sequence data (in this case, middle → left → right or 2-1-3) in association with a plurality of lottery push-orders. Further, the ROM 101 stores nine small bonuses (predetermined number), one small bonus dividend, and one other small bonus dividend.

  The main control unit 100 recognizes or confirms the operation sequence for winning the bell winning combination in the push order winning combination that is won internally (in this case, middle → left → right). Further, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table for all the drum units 2 (the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c) until the stop operation becomes possible, and is stopped. (See JP 2012-040355). This sliding frame number table is a table for stop control in which sliding frame number data for moving the drum unit 2 within the range of 0 to 4 frames to stop with respect to the stop operation position is stored.

  For example, the middle drum 2b No. When the replay 2 symbol of 13 is on the active line and the middle stop button 10b in the correct push order is first stopped, the main control unit 100 moves the middle drum 2b by four frames to move the No. 3 button. Control is performed so that the 9 bell 1 symbol stops. No. of the left drum 2a. When the blue 7 symbol of 10 is on the active line and the left stop button 10a in the correct push order is operated for the second stop, the main control unit 100 moves the left drum 2a by one frame and moves the No. 10 symbol. Control is performed so that the bell 3 symbol of 9 stops, and the first small combination enters the tempering state. Thereafter, when the right drum 2c is stopped for the third time, any one of the bell 1 to bell 3 symbols is stopped on the active line, and the first small combination (target small combination) wins. When the right stop button 10c in the order of incorrect answer pressing is subjected to the second stop operation, either the square symbol or the pentagon symbol is stopped on the effective line of the right drum 2c, and the other small piece is put into a tempering state. Then, one other small role wins. In addition, it is possible to make another small winning combination win or lose. As an example, for the second small role, the replay-bell-square symbol stops on the active line (see FIG. 52B). Further, for the third small combination, the square-bell-replay symbol stops on the active line (see FIG. 52C).

  On the other hand, in the state where the drum part 2 is all rotating, the No. of the left drum 2a When the blue 7 symbol of 10 is on the active line and the left stop button 10a in the incorrect pressing order is first stopped, the main control unit 100 moves the left drum 2a by 3 frames and moves the No. 10 symbol. Control is performed so that the pentagonal (blue) symbol of 7 stops. Note that the No. of the left drum 2a. It is possible to stop the 9 bell 3 symbol, but the pentagonal (blue) symbol with higher priority is stopped. In the subsequent second stop operation and third stop operation, one small winning combination wins or loses. The description of the right drum 2c is omitted because it is the same.

  53 and 54 are a game state transition diagram and a conceptual diagram showing lottery probabilities of various combinations. FIG. 53 (B) shows the lottery probability during the general game in the initial state, FIG. 54 (B) shows the lottery probability inside the RBB, and FIG. 54 (B) shows the lottery probability during the RBB (during one type BB game). . Even if the step set value is re-entered, the gaming state is maintained.

  In FIG. 53A, the general game (denoted as “general game” in the figure) starts from the next game after the end of the big bonus game (RBB game). The replay probability (probability that replay is won) in this general game is about 1 / 7.3 (number 8978/65536) (initial replay state: state in which the replay probability has not changed).

  In the general game, when the RBB which is a bonus combination is won internally, and the RBB wins in that game, the RBB game starts from the next game. The RBB game ends when the number of medals paid out exceeds a predetermined number of 120, and a normal replay state in which the winning probability of the replay role is low from the next game is entered. It should be noted that the general game → RBB wins internally → RBB wins → RBB game pays out more than 120 cards → RBB game ends → general game is rare, and the player plays the game in the RBB internal state (hereinafter referred to as “internal”). Will be repeated). It can be said that the general game is a so-called “preparation state” until the transition to the internal middle game. The number of RBB places is 2000, and the number of places that the RBB and one small combination (RBB winning blockage combination) win simultaneously is 2558, and only the former can win RBB when winning internally. However, if you do not aim at the blue 7 symbol, red 7 symbol and white bar symbol at the timing of internal winning, you will not win, and even if you win or win, the number of game medals will decrease, so it is beneficial for the player to win There is no.

  On the other hand, even if the RBB is won internally in the general game, if the RBB winning is avoided, the bonus combination becomes the high probability replaying state (RT1) in which the bonus combination is won (inside the RBB) (see the hatched portion in FIG. 53A). ). As will be described later, the RT1 state has no losing (unfair election), so the player can play a variable display game in a very advantageous gaming state. Note that the number of lost positions in the RT1 state may be about 1 to 10, and a freezing effect may be performed when a loss is drawn with a probability of 1/65536 to 10/65536, and a large amount of assist function may be added. In this case, the loser becomes a freeze trigger role or a freeze confirmed role.

  At the time of a general game (see FIG. 53B), the total number of RBB is 4558 (2000 + 2558), and the winning probability is 4558/65536. The numbers of the first small combination, the second small combination, and the third small combination are 17000, respectively, and the winning probability is 17000/65536. The winning probability by the sum is 51000/65536. In this case, any of the first small role to the third small role wins internally with a probability of about 78%. Basically, however, a plurality of different small combinations are elected simultaneously for the push order control, but the first small combination to the third small combination may be elected independently. The number of the middle cherry role is 250, the number of the lower cherry role is 750, and the number of the replay role is 8978. However, basically, a plurality of different replay roles are won simultaneously.

  Inside the RBB (see FIG. 54A), the RBB lottery is not performed, so the winning probability is zero. Note that the inside of the RBB is a state in which the RBB flag is set and the RBB has already been hit and carried over. The inside of this RBB is in a high probability replaying state (RT state) in which the winning probability of replay varies. The lottery area of the number 2000 that the RBB shown in FIG. 53 (B) wins alone becomes a new replay winning area. Therefore, 10978, which is obtained by adding 2000 to the original replay number 8978, becomes the number, the replay winning probability is 10978/65536 (about 1/6), and the unfair winning is 0. That is, in the inside of the RBB where there is no losing, the assist function is activated to inform the player of the pushing order for winning the first small role to the third small role (9 target small roles). It is an efficient way to win medals. The number 2558 of the area where the RBB and one small combination are simultaneously won is a winning area for only one small combination. Since others are the same, description is abbreviate | omitted.

  When the expected value when the assist function is activated in the internal game is calculated, the probability that the first small role to the third small role is won is 51000/65536, and the number of increase is 6 (9 payouts-3 throws) Therefore, 4.67 cards / game. On the other hand, the probability of winning two cherry roles is 1000/65536, and the increased number is -1 (2 payouts-3 inserts), so -0.03 / game. The probability of winning one small combination is 2558/65536 and the increased number is -2 (1 payout-3 inserts), so -0.08 / game. Even if a replay is won, the next game can be played without inserting medals, so the expected value does not change. Therefore, if the AT is activated in the internal medium game and all the small roles including the first small role to the third small role are awarded, it will increase on average by about 4.56 sheets / game, The highest net increase in the number 5 machine can be achieved.

  In the RBB game (see FIG. 54 (B)), the biggest difference from the internal game is that the first small role, the second small role, and the third small role are won simultaneously, and the number is 17000. That is. In other words, in the internal medium game, the winning probability obtained by adding the first small role, the second small role, and the third small role in which the winning areas are dispersed is 51000/65536, whereas in the RBB game, the winning area As a result of overlapping, the winning probability decreased to 1/3, 17000/65536. Of the remaining 34,000 (51000-17000), the placement 30000 and the replay placement 10978 are lost in the RBB game (unqualified: placement 40978). It becomes an area where small roles are won. However, the number of replays may be provided and lottery may be performed. In other words, in the internal middle game, the winning areas of the first small role to the third small role are dispersed, so that the target small roles 1 to 3 whose payout numbers are nine are not simultaneously won each other, whereas the RBB In the game, since the winning areas of the first small role to the third small role are matched (or overlap), the target small roles 1 to 3 whose payout numbers are 9 are simultaneously won. As a result, in the RBB game, the game medals decrease or do not increase.

  When the expected value of the number of games until the end of the RBB game is calculated, the probability that the first small role to the third small role are won simultaneously is 17000/65536, and the number of payouts is 9, so 2 per game. .33 will be paid out. Since the probability of winning two cherry roles is 1000/65536 and the number of payouts is two, 0.03 payout per game is made. The probability of winning one small combination is 6558/65536, and the number of payouts is 1, so that 0.10 payouts per game. The total payout per game is 2.46 (totally reduced by 0.54 / game). Since the RBB game ends with a payout of over 120 cards, the game ends on average with about 49 games, so in one RBB game, the calculation is reduced by 26.4.

  FIG. 55 is a conceptual diagram of a winning area for a small role. Note that the RBB and re-game winning area are omitted.

  The upper diagram in FIG. 55A shows the winning area of the small role in the general game and the RBB internal game (see FIG. 53A), and the lower diagram shows the small role in the RBB game (see FIG. 53A). The winning area is shown. When the probability of winning a replay role (replaying role) in a general game is a predetermined probability (1 / 7.3), a bonus internal medium game (a symbol display game in which the carryover means carry over the internal winning state of the bonus role) The probability of winning the replay role in is a high probability higher than a predetermined probability. This gaming state is referred to as a high probability re-gaming state.

  The random value used for the role lottery always appears once in one cycle in the range of 0 to 65535, and the main control unit 100 extracts one random value at the timing of the start operation. In the above figure, the first small combination is won internally in the range of this extracted random value n1 to n2-1, the second small combination is won internally in the range of extracted random value n2 to n3-1, and the extracted random value Indicates that the third small role is won internally in the range of n3 to n4-1. As described above, each of the first to third small roles is elected simultaneously with a plurality of one small portion and a plurality of other single small portions, thereby forming a push order small portion (FIG. 55). The same applies to the upper diagrams of (B) to (D). If the correct pressing order is given, the bell small role that is the target small character (the appearance of the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line, but it can also be V-shaped or reverse V-shaped) is won, and one small character and the other 1 A small role is won or lost. That is, the main control unit 100 has a plurality of push-forwarding combinations so that the probability that the replay role is won in the symbol display game carrying over the internal winning state of the bonus role is won with a high probability higher than a predetermined probability. The lottery of the combination is executed so that each other wins separately.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 55A shows that the first small combination is won internally in the range of the extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1, and within the range, the first small combination, the second small combination, the first small combination, The third small combination and all of the first small combination to the third small combination are won simultaneously. Then, a plurality of one small combination that does not fall within the range of n1 to n2-1 and a plurality of other single small combinations are pushed out, and a single small combination group is elected in the range of n2 to n2 + α, and n2 + α + 1 to Using the lottery table that increases the probability of losing in the range of n4, the main control unit 100 draws lots, and as a result, the expected value of the number of payouts per game is input per game. It is less than the number of sheets. That is, the main control unit 100 controls the bonus game so that the expected value for increasing medals (game media) is negative in one bonus game.

  As a feature of the present invention, the lottery table used in the bonus game has the same or larger number of small roles as compared to the lottery table used in the general game and the RBB internal game, but in the latter, a plurality of pushes are used. In contrast to the fact that the small ranks are elected separately (or in a distributed manner), in the former case, at least some of the multiple push order small roles are elected at the same time. Lottery with increasing probability. In other words, in the latter, a lottery area is formed in which the target small roles (winning purpose small roles) do not win simultaneously, but in the former, the lottery region and the wrong winning where target small roles win simultaneously. This is a point forming a lottery area.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 55 (B) shows that the first small combination in the push order small combination is won internally in the range of the extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1, and within the range, the first small combination and the non-pressing small combination This indicates that all of the second small combination, the first small combination, the third small combination of the non-pressing order small combination, and the first small combination to the third small combination are won simultaneously. As a result, there is no need to extrude multiple one-piece small roles and multiple other one-piece small roles, and it is possible to make all areas that were won by the second and third small roles unreasonable. become.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 55 (C) shows that the first small combination of the push order small combinations is won internally in the range of the extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1, the number of the third small combination is equal, This indicates that the second small combination, the third small combination and the second small combination in the push order small combination are won simultaneously. It shows that α and the loss area of the extrusion are increasing.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 55 (D) shows that the first small combination in the order of pushing pushes within the range of extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1 is internally won, and the second small combination is simultaneously elected in a part thereof, and further The third small role is elected at the same time in some areas, and the second and third small roles are elected at the same time in some of the elected areas of the second small role, and only the third small role in other portions Indicates that they will win. It shows that α and the loss area of the extrusion are increasing.

  FIG. 56 is a conceptual diagram of a winning area for a small role. Note that the RBB and re-game winning area are omitted.

  The upper diagram in FIG. 56A shows the winning area of the small role in the general game and the RBB internal middle game (see FIG. 53A), and the lower diagram shows the small role in the RBB game (see FIG. 53A). The winning area is shown. When the probability of winning a replay role (replaying role) in a general game is a predetermined probability (1 / 7.3), a bonus internal medium game (a symbol display game in which the carryover means carry over the internal winning state of the bonus role) The probability of winning the replay role in is a high probability higher than a predetermined probability. This gaming state is referred to as a high probability re-gaming state. The random value used for the role lottery always appears once in one cycle in the range of 0 to 65535, and the main control unit 100 extracts one random value at the timing of the start operation. The upper figure shows that the first small combination is won internally in the range of this extracted random value n1 to n2-1, and the second small combination is won internally in the range of extracted random number n2 to n3-1. Yes.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 56 (A) shows that the first small role is won internally in the range of the extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1, and within the range, the first small role, the second small role, and the first small role. It shows that only the role wins. Then, a plurality of one small combination that does not fall within the range of n1 to n2-1 and a plurality of other single small combinations are pushed out, and a single small combination group is elected in the range of n2 to n2 + α, and n2 + α + 1 to The main control unit 100 draws a lot using a lottery table that increases the probability of losing in the range of n3. As a result, the expected number of payouts per game is calculated as the number of coins inserted per game. Less than. That is, the main control unit 100 controls the bonus game so that the expected value for increasing medals (game media) is negative in one bonus game.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 56 (B) shows that the first small combination in the push order small combination is won internally in the range of the extracted random numbers n1 to n2-1, and the first small combination and the non-pressing small combination in that range. This shows that only the second small part and the first small part are won. As a result, it is not necessary to extrude a plurality of one small combination and a plurality of other single small combinations, and it becomes possible to make all the areas where the second small combination has been won unfair.

  The lower diagram of FIG. 56 (C) shows that the first small combination of the push order small internal winnings within the range of the extracted random number values n1 to n2-1, and the second small combination is simultaneously winning a part of the second small combination. This shows that the second small role is elected in a part of the winning region of the small role, and that the α and the lost region for the push-out increase.

  In the lower diagram of FIG. 56D, the first small combination in the push order small combination is won internally in the range where the extracted random number value is in the range of n1 to n2-1, and the second small combination is simultaneously won in part of the second small combination. In part of the winning area of the small role, the second small role is elected, and the amount α pushed out increases, indicating that there is no losing area.

  The gaming machine according to the present invention will be described in detail. The game can be started by setting three medals (the number of bets) for one game. When the start lever 9 is operated, the drum section 2 is rotated, and when the stop button section 10 is operated, the drum section 2 is stopped, the display result is derived and displayed, and one game is completed. Depending on the display result of the drum unit 2, a winning of RBB, a small combination or a re-playing combination occurs, but it is also lost. By operating the start lever 9, it is determined in advance whether or not winning is allowed by lottery, and a winning flag is set. When the small role wins, a predetermined number of medals are paid out. When an RBB symbol is displayed in a general game or a game inside the RBB and a winning is made, the gaming state shifts to an RBB game (special gaming state). The total number of medals paid out in the RBB game is accumulated and counted. In this example, a predetermined number of 120 is determined for the RBB game, and when it is determined that the total number of medals paid out in the RBB game exceeds 120, the RBB game is ended. If the elected RBB does not win, the next game or later will be an RBB internal game, and will be in the RBB internal winning state. The winning probability of the re-gamer in the general game is 1 / 7.3 (predetermined probability), but in the RBB internal game, it becomes a high-probability re-gaming state (high probability higher than the predetermined probability). The first, second, and third small roles, which are a plurality of push order small roles, are complex small roles in which the target small role and the inhibition small role are simultaneously elected. The winning areas between the roles are all different (or at least partially different). Using this lottery table, it is determined whether or not winning is permitted in a lottery using random numbers. In the lottery table used in the RBB game, at least a part of the winning areas of the first small role, the second small role, and the third small role is the same. Either a small role or a third small role is won simultaneously. In terms of design, the numbers of the first small role to the third small role are the same, the winning areas are different in the general game or the game inside the RBB, and all the winning areas are the same in the RBB game. It is desirable to do. Then, in the RBB game, the area that is not selected is increased as compared with the RBB internal game, and the expected value of the number of payouts per RBB game is set to be less than the number of input per game.

  In the RBB game, it is a conventional method to increase the winning probability (number) of the small role. However, in the case of the present invention, in the general game, the RBB inside game, and the RBB game, the ratio (numerical number) that the small role is won as a whole is the same (or may be slightly increased). In the RBB game, the winning area of the composite small part is overlapped to create a winning area. As a result, during the period from the start to the end of one RBB game, the main control unit 100 controls the RBB game so that the expected value of an increase in game media is negative. 54 (A) and 54 (B), the ratio of winning of the small roles overall is that the first small role is a total of four, including one target small role and inhibition small roles 1 to 3. Since the number of places is 17000, the place number of the target small part is 17000, the place number of the inhibition small part 1 is 17000, the place number of the inhibition small part 2 is 17000, The set number is 17000, and the set number is 68000 as a whole. Assuming that the second small combination and the third small combination are the same, the total number is 204,000, which is three times as a whole. In the RBB game, the target small combination of the first small combination, the target small combination of the second small combination, and the target small combination of the third small combination are won simultaneously. In addition, in order to prevent the same inhibitory roles from overlapping in the same lottery area, the inhibition roles 1 to 3 of the first role, the inhibition roles 1 to 3 of the second role, and the inhibition role 1 of the third role -3 are won simultaneously, and the remaining inhibitory heroes are pushed out to other lottery areas to obtain a number.

  FIG. 57 is a diagram showing an example of the small role explicit identification information.

  FIG. 57A shows only one type of bell symbol as the small role explicit identification information. FIG. 57 (B) shows three types of bell 1 symbol, bell 2 symbol, and bell 3 symbol as small role explicit identification information. The small role explicit identification information is identification information for clearly indicating to the player that the small role has won, and there may be only one type or two or more types (see FIG. 57B). There are three cases). The Bell 1 design to the Bell 3 design are different in that the bell design based on yellow has the same outer shape and the color of the ball portion is red, blue, and yellow. Therefore, it looks like the same symbol to the player's eyes (also called a similar symbol or a very similar symbol).

  A procedure (for example, middle right / left) for the stop button unit 10 to win a target small role when a push order bell small role (generally composed of a target small role and an inhibition small role) is won internally. The main control unit 100 stops and displays the symbols constituting the target small combination on the winning line, and displays the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) in a straight line (FIG. 57 (C)). In the case of this figure, the winning line and the line displayed in a straight line are the same, but the line displaying the bell symbol in a straight line is the upper stage or the lower stage, diagonally up or diagonally down, and is different from the winning line. Also good.

  On the other hand, in FIG. 57 (D), when the push order bell winning combination is won internally, when the stop button unit 10 is operated in the procedure for winning the target winning combination (for example, the order of the middle left and right), The control unit 100 stops and displays the replay 2 symbol, the bell 3 symbol, and the square (blue) symbol of the symbol constituting the target small part on the winning line, and the bell 1 symbol, the bell 3 symbol, the bell 1 symbol ( The small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a diagonal line with a lower right (see FIG. 57D). In other words, the winning symbol of the target small role appears to be inconsistent, but the bell small role explicit identification information appears to be in a straight line, so the player has no sense of incongruity.

  FIG. 58 is a diagram showing an example of re-game player explicit identification information.

  FIG. 58 (A) shows only one type of replay symbol as replaying role explicit identification information. FIG. 58 (B) shows three types of replay 1 symbol, replay 2 symbol, and replay 3 symbol as replaying role explicit identification information. The re-game player explicit identification information is identification information for clearly indicating to the player that the re-game player has won a prize, and there may be only one type or two or more types (FIG. 58 (B ) Is three types). The Replay 1 design to Replay 3 design are based on light blue. The Replay 1 symbol and the Replay 2 symbol differ in that the face direction and bubble position of the character are different (that is, the symbol shape is different). In the Replay 1 design, the character faces left and the bubbles are on the left, while in the Replay 2 design, the character faces right and the bubbles are on the right. The replay 1 symbol and the replay 3 symbol differ depending on whether the character color of the replay is black or white (that is, the color is different). Therefore, it looks like the same symbol to the player's eyes (also called a similar symbol or a very similar symbol).

  If the left game button 10a is operated in the first stop operation (for example, the left middle right forward push or the left right middle scissor push) when the re-game player is won internally, the main control unit 100 The replay symbol is stopped and displayed, and the replay symbol (replaying player explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line (see FIG. 58C). In the case of this figure, the winning line and the line to be displayed in a straight line are the same, but the line to display the replay symbol in a straight line is the upper or lower stage, diagonally up or diagonally down, and different from the winning line. Also good. When the re-game player wins, the main control unit 100 turns on the inserted number LED 4a. For example, if there are three games won by the re-gamer, the same number of three is lit. When the start lever 9 is operated, the main control unit 100 starts the next game.

  On the other hand, in FIG. 58 (D), when the re-game player is won internally, the stop button unit 10 is operated in a predetermined operation sequence (the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a is operated, the left first operation). The main control unit 100 stops and displays the black bar symbol, the square (white) symbol, and the square (blue) symbol on the winning line, and displays the Replay 3 symbol, the Replay 1 symbol, and the Replay 2 symbol on the upper line. (See FIG. 58D). That is, the winning symbol of the re-gamer is visible, but the re-gamer explicit identification information appears to be in a straight line, so that the player has no sense of incongruity.

  FIG. 59 is a diagram showing an example of re-game player explicit identification information.

  FIG. 59 (A) shows an example of a prize-winning aspect of the so-called bell replay role. When the bell re-game player 1 is elected internally, when the stop button unit 10 is operated in a predetermined operation sequence (the left stop button 10a is operated by the first stop operation, that is, the left first operation), the main control unit 100 Displays a pentagonal (white) symbol, a square (white) symbol, and a cherry symbol on the winning line and displays a bell symbol (any one of the bell 1 symbol to bell 3 symbol) in a straight line on the top. (See FIG. 59A). In other words, the winning symbol of the bell re-playing role is visible, but the small role explicit identification information appears to be in a straight line, so the player has won the re-playing role, but the small role has won. feel. Therefore, the main control unit 100 actually delays the lighting of the inserted number LED 4a by using a timer although it is a re-game winning prize. For example, the main control unit 100 starts timing (freeze-on) when the bell re-game player 1 wins, and turns on the inserted number LED 4a when 20 seconds (predetermined time) elapses. On the other hand, when either the max bet button 8 or the start lever 9 is operated during the time counting, the main control unit 100 stops the time counting (freeze-off) and turns on the input number LED 4a. For example, if there are three games won by the re-gamer, the same three are lit. When the start lever 9 is operated, the main control unit 100 starts the next game. As an effect, when the player who feels that the small role winning is operated, the main control unit 100 turns on all the number-of-insertion LEDs 4a when operating the max bet button 8, so that the game is performed by the same operation procedure as that for the small role winning. It becomes possible. In addition, in the state where the external output signal 3 of the external concentration terminal board 170 indicating that the assist function is activated is ON, the bell re-game player wins and the small role explicit identification information by the left first operation (left middle right or left / right middle) Are aligned, the main control unit 100 turns off the external output signal 3 and notifies the hall computer of the end of activation of the assist function.

  When the bell re-game player 1 is elected internally, when the stop button portion 10 is operated in another predetermined operation sequence (the right stop button 10c is operated by the first stop operation, that is, the right first operation), the main control is performed. The unit 100 stops and displays the Replay 3 symbol, the Replay 1 symbol, and the Replay 2 symbol on the winning line, and displays the similar replay symbol (however, only the same replay symbol may be displayed) in a straight line (FIG. 59). (See (B)). In particular, after the right first operation, when the left stop button 10a is operated by the second stop operation and the middle stop button 10b is operated by the third stop operation, the main control unit 100 turns on the external output signal 3 of the external concentration terminal board 170. And outputs an AT signal. Thereby, it can be shown that the assist function is activated. Note that the similar replay symbols are stopped in a straight line in the middle stage, but may be stopped diagonally downward or diagonally upward.

  When the bell re-game player 1 is elected internally, the stop button portion 10 is operated in a different predetermined operation order (the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop operation, that is, the middle first operation), and enters the pull-in range. If there is a red 7 symbol, the main control unit 100 stops the red 7 symbol on the winning line. If the left stop button 10a is operated in the second stop operation and there is a red 7 symbol in the drawing range, the main control unit 100 stops the red 7 symbol on the winning line. If the right stop button 10c is operated in the third stop operation and there is a red 7 symbol in the pull-in range, the main control unit 100 stops the red 7 symbol on the winning line and displays the red 7 symbol in the middle line. (See FIG. 59C). That is, the red 7 replay combination can be won by the correct order of the right and left push order and the presence of the red 7 symbol within the pull-in range. Then, the main control unit 100 turns on the external output signal 1 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 and outputs a pseudo BB signal. On the other hand, if there is no red 7 symbol in the pull-in range in the third stop operation, any bell symbol is stopped (red 7 symbol, red 7 symbol, bell symbol). In this case, the replay combination is won, but the external output signal 1 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 is not turned ON. If the right stop button 10c of the wrong answer procedure is operated by the second stop operation while the red 7 symbol is stopped in the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the red 7 symbol exists in the drawing range, the main control unit 100 wins a prize. Stop the red 7 symbol on the line. However, even if the left stop button 10a is operated in the third stop operation and the red 7 symbol exists in the pull-in range, the main control unit 100 does not stop the red 7 symbol on the winning line, and does not stop any of the bell symbols. (Bell design, red 7 design, red 7 design). In this case, the replay combination is won, but the external output signal 1 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 is not turned ON. When Bell Re-Gamer 1 wins an internal win, if the stop button unit 10 is operated in the middle first and there is no red 7 symbol in the pull-in range, the main control unit 100 stops the Replay 3 symbol on the winning line Let In the subsequent stop operation, the replay 2 symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle of the left drum 2a, and the replay 1 symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle of the right drum 2c. (See FIG. 59D).

  FIG. 60 is a diagram showing an example of re-game combination explicit identification information.

  FIG. 60 (A) is also an example of a prize-winning aspect of the so-called bell replay role. When the bell re-game player 2 is elected internally, when the stop button unit 10 is operated in a predetermined operation sequence (the left stop button 10a is operated by the first stop operation, that is, the left first operation), the main control unit 100 Displays the square (white) symbol, cherry symbol, pentagon (blue) symbol on the winning line and displays the bell symbol (any of Bell 1 symbol to Bell 3 symbol) in a straight line at the bottom. (See FIG. 60A). In other words, the winning symbol of the bell re-playing role is visible, but the small role explicit identification information appears to be in a straight line, so the player has won the re-playing role, but the small role has won. feel. Therefore, the main control unit 100 delays the lighting of the inserted number LED 4a by using a timer, as in the above-described bell re-game player 1. For example, the main control unit 100 starts counting the time when the bell re-game player 1 wins, and turns on the inserted number LED 4a when a predetermined time elapses. On the other hand, when either the max bet button 8 or the start lever 9 is operated during the time counting, the main control unit 100 stops the time counting and turns on the input number LED 4a. For example, if there are three games won by the re-gamer, the same three are lit. When the start lever 9 is operated, the main control unit 100 starts the next game. As an effect, when the player who feels that the small role winning is operated, the main control unit 100 turns on all the number-of-insertion LEDs 4a when the max bet button 8 is operated. . In addition, when the bell re-playing combination is won by the left first operation (left middle right or left / right middle) with the external output signal 3 turned on, the main control unit 100 outputs the external combination when the small combination explicit identification information is aligned. The signal 3 is turned off to notify the hall computer that the assist function has ended.

  When the bell re-game player 2 wins the internal game, if the stop button unit 10 is operated in another predetermined operation order (right first), the main control unit 100 displays the replay 3 symbol and the replay 1 symbol on the winning line. The replay 2 symbol is stopped and displayed, and the similar replay symbol is displayed in a straight line in the middle (see FIG. 60B). In particular, after the right first operation, when the left stop button 10a is operated by the second stop operation and the middle stop button 10b is operated by the third stop operation, the main control unit 100 turns on the external output signal 3 of the external concentration terminal board 170. And outputs an AT signal. Thereby, it can be shown that the assist function is activated. Note that the similar replay symbols are stopped in a straight line in the middle stage, but may be stopped diagonally downward or diagonally upward.

  When the bell re-player 2 is elected internally, if the stop button unit 10 is operated in a different predetermined operation sequence (medium first operation) and there is a red 7 symbol in the drawing range, the main control unit 100 wins Stop the red 7 symbol on the line. If the left stop button 10a is operated in the second stop operation and the blue 7 symbol exists in the drawing-in range, the main control unit 100 stops the blue 7 symbol on the winning line. If the right stop button 10c is operated in the third stop operation and there is a red 7 symbol in the pull-in range, the main control unit 100 stops the red 7 symbol on the winning line and 7 symbols (blue 7 symbol, red 7). A symbol, a red 7 symbol) is displayed on the middle straight line (see FIG. 60C). In other words, the blue 7 replay combination can be won by the correct order of the right and left push order and the presence of the red 7 symbol or the blue 7 symbol within the pull-in range. Then, the main control unit 100 turns on the external output signal 2 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 and outputs a pseudo RB signal. On the other hand, if there is no red 7 symbol in the pull-in range in the third stop operation, any bell symbol is stopped (blue 7 symbol, red 7 symbol, bell symbol). In this case, the replay combination is won, but the external output signal 2 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 is not turned ON. If the right stop button 10c of the wrong answer procedure is operated by the second stop operation while the red 7 symbol is stopped in the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the red 7 symbol exists in the drawing range, the main control unit 100 wins a prize. Stop the red 7 symbol on the line. However, even if the left stop button 10a is operated in the third stop operation and the blue 7 symbol exists in the drawing range, the main control unit 100 does not stop the red 7 symbol on the winning line, and does not stop any of the bell symbols. (Bell design, red 7 design, red 7 design). In this case, the replay combination is won, but the external output signal 2 of the external concentrated terminal board 170 is not turned ON. When Bell Re-Gamer 2 wins an internal win, if the stop button unit 10 is operated in the middle first and there is no red 7 symbol in the pull-in range, the main control unit 100 stops the Replay 3 symbol on the winning line Let In the subsequent stop operation, the replay 2 symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle of the left drum 2a, and the replay 1 symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle of the right drum 2c. (See FIG. 60D).

  FIG. 61 shows a drum symbol arrangement.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 20 different symbols on it. Seven symbols (7 symbols), BAR symbol, upper chile symbol, lower chile symbol, red watermelon symbol, green watermelon symbol, blank symbol, bell A design, a blue lip design, and a white lip design are drawn as clearly shown in the figure. The winning line (also referred to as “effective line”) is only one central horizontal line as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 62 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and the middle 1st is a correct operation procedure.

  In the pachislot industry, the push order bell role is generally used as the push order small role. There are eight types of push order bells, push order bell 1a to push order bell 4b, but the left 1st is not provided with a push order bell of the correct operation procedure (however, it may be provided depending on design specifications). In the push order bell 1a, the correct operation procedure (order data of middle left and right (213)) is stored corresponding to the ROM. When the push order bell 1a is elected, FR1 (fruit 1 small role), FR2, FR3 and FR4 are simultaneously elected internally (a flag is set), and any one of FR1 to FR4 can be awarded. FR1 corresponds to a target small role provided for the purpose of winning a prize. The FR1 winning symbol is that the left drum 2a is a bell symbol, the middle drum 2b is a bell symbol, and the right drum 2c is a bell symbol (hereinafter described in the order of left, middle and right), and is displayed on the winning line. Nine medals or credits (both are “game value”) can be obtained. This bell symbol is small role explicit identification information (see FIG. 57) based on yellow, and when winning, it is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. However, the bell symbol is not a single type, and a plurality of bell 1 symbols to bell n symbols with slightly different shapes and colors may be provided as the small role explicit identification information.

  The winning symbol of FR2 is a red watermelon symbol, a green watermelon symbol, a bell symbol, a blue lip symbol, or a white lip symbol. When displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. The winning symbol of FR3 is a blue lip symbol, a red watermelon symbol or an upper chili symbol, a seven symbol or a green watermelon symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. The winning symbol of FR4 is a white lip symbol, seven symbols or a green watermelon symbol, a red watermelon symbol, or a lower Chile symbol. When displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. FR2, FR3, and FR4 are inhibition small roles, and are provided for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the target small role.

  In the push order bell 1b, correct answer operation procedures (order data of middle left and right (213)) are stored corresponding to the ROM. When the push order bell 1b is won, FR1, FR2, FR5 and FR6 are internally won at the same time, and any of these four small combinations can be won. The winning symbols of FR1, the winning symbols of FR2, and the number of winnings are as described above. The winning symbol of FR5 is a blue lip symbol, a red watermelon symbol or an upper chile symbol, a red watermelon symbol or a lower chile symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. The winning symbols of FR6 are white lip symbol, 7 symbol or green watermelon symbol, 7 symbol or green watermelon symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. FR2, FR5 and FR6 are inhibitory roles.

  In this way, the reason why the push order bell 1 having the same correct operation procedure is provided is to prevent the small symbol from being aimed by the stop symbol. For example, when the blue lip symbol is stopped on the left drum 2a and the red watermelon symbol is stopped on the middle drum 2b, if there is only the pushing order bell 1a, the player intentionally wins the FR3 aiming at the seven symbols or the green watermelon symbol. However, since there is a possibility of a red watermelon symbol or a lower chile symbol due to the presence of the FR 5 of the push order bell 1b, as a result, neither player can aim.

  The push order bell 2a stores the correct answer operation procedure (order data of middle right left (231)) corresponding to the ROM. When the push order bell 2a is won, FR1, FR2, FR7, and FR8 are internally won at the same time, and any of these four small combinations can be won. The winning symbols of FR1, the winning symbols of FR2, and the number of winnings are as described above. The winning symbol of FR7 is a blue lip symbol, a seven symbol or green watermelon symbol, a seven symbol or green watermelon symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. The FR8 winning symbol is a white lip symbol, a red watermelon symbol or an upper chile symbol, a red watermelon symbol or a lower chile symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. FR2, FR7, FR8 are inhibitory roles.

  In the push order bell 2b, correct answer operation procedures (order data of middle right left (231)) are stored corresponding to the ROM. When the push order bell 2b is won, FR1, FR2, FR9, and FR10 are simultaneously won internally, and any of these four small roles can be won. The winning symbols of FR1, the winning symbols of FR2, and the number of winnings are as described above. The winning symbol of FR9 is a blue lip symbol, a seven symbol or green watermelon symbol, a red watermelon symbol or a lower Chile symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. The winning symbols of FR10 are a white lip symbol, a red watermelon symbol or an upper chili symbol, a seven symbol or a green watermelon symbol, and when displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. FR2, FR9, and FR10 are inhibitory roles. The reason why the push order bell 2 having the same correct operation procedure is provided is the same as that for the push order bell 1.

  FIG. 63 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and the right 1st is a correct operation procedure.

  In the push order bell 3a, the correct operation procedure (order data of the middle right (312)) is stored corresponding to the ROM. When the push order bell 3a is won, FR1, FR11, FR3, and FR4 are internally won at the same time, and any of these four small roles can be won. The only difference between the push order bell 3a and the push order bell 1a is that FR2 is changed to FR11. The winning symbols of this FR11 are a red watermelon symbol, a green watermelon symbol, a blue lip symbol, a white lip symbol, and a bell symbol. When displayed on the winning line, one medal or the like can be obtained. F11, FR3 and FR4 are inhibitory roles. Since others are the same as that of the push order bell 1a, explanation is omitted (incorporated). Since the push order bell 3b, the push order bell 4a, and the push order bell 4b are the same, the description is omitted (incorporated).

  FIG. 64 is a configuration diagram of the replay combination.

  In the pachislot industry, players can recognize the winning of a replay role by displaying a variety of replay 1 symbols to replay n symbols (replay role explicit identification information) in a straight line on the symbol display window. I try to let them. However, it does not matter whether the straight line display of the replay combination explicit identification information is on the winning line or not. On the other hand, as a winning mode for a special replay role, it is often used to display a replay symbol, a replay symbol, a bell symbol or a cherry symbol on the right in a straight line.

  In the case of this embodiment, when the left stop button 10a is operated (first left operation, also referred to as “specific operation”) in the first stop operation, a prize is won and the normal replay in which the replay symbols are displayed in a central horizontal line. 1 and the normal replay 2, and when the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop operation, the player wins a prize and the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed on the upper side or in the right and down straight line. Replay 2 is provided.

  When normal replay 1 is won, RP1 (REPLAY1 role), RP2, RP3, RP14, and RP15 are simultaneously internally won (flag is set), and any one of these 5 REPLAY roles (replaying role) can win a prize. . As for the winning symbol of RP1, the left drum 2a is a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol, the middle drum 2b is a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol, and the right drum 2c is a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol. Will be displayed on the winning line, it will be a re-game winner (originally simply called “re-game”), and the next game will be inserted into the game medals (buttons related to the storage device, etc. This can be done without relying on game medals for game use by operating the device. The blue lip symbol and the white lip symbol are replay role explicit identification information (re-playing role explicit identification information), and when winning, they are displayed in a straight line on the central horizontal line of the symbol display window. Normal replay 1 is a lottery drawing based on random numbers extracted by the main control unit 100 in both the initial state (the state in which the replay probability has not changed) and the RT state in which the bonus combination is won internally (the high probability replay state). Is done.

  The winning symbols for RP2 are the bell symbol on the left, the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol on the left, the seven symbol, the red watermelon symbol or the green watermelon symbol on the right. The blue lip symbol or white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line in the upper right diagonal line of the symbol display window. The winning symbol of RP3 is the bell symbol on the left, the red watermelon symbol or green watermelon symbol on the inside, the BAR symbol, the lower Chile symbol or the BRK (blank) symbol on the right. Winning a prize, a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the lower horizontal line of the symbol display window.

  The winning symbol of RP14 is the Seven symbol on the left, the Seven symbol on the inside, the Seven symbol or BAR symbol on the right, and when displayed on the winning line, the re-gamer wins, and the Seven horizontal line on the central display line A symbol, a seven symbol, a seven symbol, or a BAR symbol is displayed in a straight line. As will be described later, according to the operation sequence and timing of the stop button unit 10, in actuality, only the 7 symbol, the 7 symbol, and the 7 symbol are won. By the kick control by the main control unit 100, the 7 symbol, the 7 symbol, the BAR symbol It is never displayed. The winning symbol of RP15 is a seven symbol or bell symbol on the left, a seven symbol on the inside, and a bell symbol on the right. When displayed on the winning line, the re-gamer wins a prize, It is displayed as “losing”.

  When the normal replay 2 is won, RP1, RP2, RP14, and RP15 are simultaneously won internally (a flag is set), and any one of these four REPLAY roles can be won (the winning symbols are as described above). As will be described later, the RP 14 actually wins only the seven symbol, the seven symbol, and the BAR symbol depending on the operation sequence and timing of the stop button portion 10, and the seven symbol, the seven symbol, and the seven symbol by the kick control by the main control unit 100. The symbol is never displayed. The main control unit 100 does not draw the normal replay 2 in the initial state, and performs the lottery based on the extracted random number in the RT state in which the bonus combination (RBB or CBB of the accessory continuous operation device) is won internally. That is, it means that the normal replay 2 is a lottery subject on the condition that the high probability replay state has been entered.

  When Bell Replay 1 is won, RP1, RP2, RP3, RP4, RP14, and RP15 are simultaneously won internally (a flag is set), and any one of these six REPLAY roles can be won (RP1, RP2, RP3, The winning symbols of RP14 and RP15 are as described above). The winning symbol of RP4 is the blue or white lip symbol on the left, the bell symbol on the inside, the seven symbol, the red watermelon symbol or the green watermelon symbol on the right. The re-gamer wins when it is displayed on the winning line. The bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the diagonally downward right line of the symbol display window. When the bell replay 1 is won, the main control unit 100 wins RP4 on the condition that the left stop button 10a is operated by the first stop operation and the left drum 2a (specific reel drum) is stopped (second, second). The third stop operation does not matter in order). On the other hand, when a button other than the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop operation, the main control unit 100 executes stop control so as not to win RP4. For example, when the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop operation, any one of RP1 to RP3 is won and a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. To do. When the middle stop button 10b is operated at the timing at which the seven symbols are pulled in the first stop operation, the seven symbols are stopped inside. Similarly, when the left stop button 10a is operated at a timing at which the seven symbols are retracted in the second stop operation, the seven symbols are stopped to the left. When the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing of retracting the seven symbols in the third stop operation, the seven symbols are stopped to the right, and the seven symbols, the seven symbols, and the seven symbols are displayed on the central horizontal line of the symbol display window. Displayed in a straight line (RP14 winning). However, if it is operated at the timing (No. 7 red watermelon symbol position) where the BAR symbol can be withdrawn but the Seven symbol cannot be withdrawn, the bell symbol is stopped to the right and the RP 15 wins. That is, even if the pressing order is correct, the seven symbols, seven symbols, and BAR symbols of RP14 do not stop. Moreover, even if the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing at which the seven symbols are pulled in the second stop operation, the bell symbols are stopped without stopping the seven symbols to the right. Accordingly, if the push order is incorrect, RP15 wins without RP14 winning. The main control unit 100 does not draw the bell replay 1 in the initial state, and performs the lottery based on the extracted random number in the RT state in which the bonus combination is won internally.

  When Bell Replay 2 is won, RP1, RP2, RP3, RP5, RP14, and RP15 are simultaneously won internally (a flag is set), and any one of these six REPLAY roles can be won (RP1, RP2, RP3, The winning symbols of RP14 and RP15 are as described above). The RP5 winning symbol is the blue or white lip symbol on the left, the red watermelon symbol or green watermelon symbol on the inside, and the upper Chile symbol or BRK symbol on the right. The bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the upper horizontal line of the symbol display window. When the bell replay 2 is won, the main control unit 100 wins RP5 on the condition that the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop operation and the left drum 2a (specific reel drum) is stopped (second, The third stop operation does not matter in order). On the other hand, when a button other than the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop operation, the main control unit 100 executes stop control so as not to win RP4. For example, when the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop operation, any one of RP1 to RP3 is won and a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. To do. When the middle stop button 10b is operated at the timing at which the seven symbols are pulled in the first stop operation, the seven symbols are stopped inside. Similarly, when the left stop button 10a is operated at a timing at which the seven symbols are retracted in the second stop operation, the seven symbols are stopped to the left. Then, when the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing at which the BAR symbol is pulled in the third stop operation, the BAR symbol is stopped to the right, and the Seven symbol, Seven symbol, and BAR symbol are displayed on the central horizontal line of the symbol display window. Displayed in a straight line (RP14 winning). However, if it is operated at a timing (No. 4 blank symbol position) where the Seven symbol can be withdrawn but the BAR symbol cannot be withdrawn, the bell symbol is stopped to the right and the RP 15 wins. That is, even if the pressing order is correct, the seven symbols, seven symbols, and seven symbols of RP14 do not stop. Moreover, even if the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing at which the BAR symbol can be pulled in the second stop operation, the bell symbol is stopped without stopping the BAR symbol to the right. Accordingly, if the push order is incorrect, RP15 wins without RP14 winning. The main control unit 100 does not draw the bell replay 2 in the initial state, and performs the lottery based on the extracted random number in the RT state in which the bonus combination is won internally.

  FIG. 65 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  In the game inside the RBB shown in FIG. 53 (A), the RBB flag is set, and the game medium decreases in the inside of the RBB in the high probability replay state (see the hatched portion in FIG. 53 (A)). The mainstream of recent slot machines is to repeat a normal game and a special game in which game media increase. The reason for the decrease in the game media in the normal game is that the internal winning winning combination is missed. On the other hand, the reason for the increase in game media in the special game is to indicate the operation order (or operation procedure) for winning the target winning combination (for example, the range of 8 to 15 dividends) of the internal winning winning combination. This is because the player receives more payouts than the inserted number (three). Thereby, the expected value of the increased number of sheets per game can be set to about 3 to 4 sheets. Note that the CBB (type 2 special agent continuous operation device) may be in the internal winning state, but in this case, for example, when two sheets are inserted, two sheets are always paid out, and the CBB is terminated when a predetermined number is exceeded. Therefore, there is no increase / decrease in game media during the CBB game. Similarly, in the game inside the RB shown in FIG. 26 (C), the RB flag is set, and in the inside of the RB in the high probability replay state, the normal game in which the game medium decreases and the game medium are You may make it repeat the increasing special game. The symbol combination of bonus combination (RBB, RB, CBB) will be described as a BAR symbol on the left, a green watermelon symbol on the inside, and a red watermelon symbol on the right.

  The main control unit 100 raises the FR1 flag to the FR4 flag when the push order bell 1a shown in FIG. 62 is won by random lottery in a game in which the bonus combination is won internally. Therefore, as an internal winning state, as a result, the bonus flag, FR1 flag to FR4 flag are set. Note that the main control unit 100 performs control for drawing a small role symbol on a winning line and stopping it in preference to a bonus symbol. That is, when the bonus combination and the small combination are simultaneously won internally, when the bonus symbol and the small combination can be stopped on the winning line, the main control unit 100 preferentially places the small combination symbol on the winning line. It stops at the top.

  The main control unit 100 sets the sliding frame number table based on the stop control data and the correct operation procedure (order data of middle left and right (213)) stored until all the drums of the drum unit 2 rotate at a constant speed. create. For example, in the first stop, the middle stop button 10b is No. Assuming that the blue lip symbol of No. 7 was operated at a position on the winning line, at that time, four frames were slid and no. The 3 bell symbols are stopped on the winning line. Of course, no. When the blank design of No. 6 is operated at a position on the winning line, at that time, three frames are slid. When the blue lip symbol is 5, slide 2 frames. When the green watermelon design is 4, slide one frame. For 3 bell symbols, 0 frames are slid. In this manner, the number of sliding frames for moving the reel is calculated in advance for all operation positions (total 60 frame positions), and the reel is moved and stopped immediately after the stop operation.

  When all the drums in the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 65A), the main control unit 100 operates the middle stop button 10b in the first stop (see FIG. 65B). ), The middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the common bell symbol of FR1 and FR2 is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 65C). In this case, since it is a correct operation procedure, no. When the blue lip symbol of No. 7 is operated on the winning line, slide 4 frames to No. 3 indicates that the bell symbol 3 is stopped on the winning line. In this state, both FR1 and FR2 may win, but both FR3 and FR4 cannot be won.

  When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the second stop (see FIG. 65 (D)), the main control unit 100 controls the left drum 2a to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the FR1 bell symbol is the winning line. It stops above (see FIG. 65E). In this case, it is a correct operation procedure. When the upper 12 Chile symbol was manipulated on the winning line, slide 2 frames 10 bell symbols are stopped on the winning line, indicating that the small role FR1 having a large number of payouts is in a tempered state. When the player operates the right stop button 10c in the third stop, the main control unit 100 controls the right drum 2c to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and stops the bell symbol of FR1 on the winning line (FIG. 65 ( F)). In this case, only FR1 has a possibility of winning (FR2 cannot win), but bell symbols are arranged on the right drum 2c at intervals of 4 frames (or within 0 to 4 frames). Since the bell symbol can be stopped on the winning line (for example, the bell symbol No. 8), the FR1 always wins. Therefore, when the target small role (FR1) of the push order bell 1a wins, the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. However, the bell symbol is not a single type, and a plurality of bell 1 symbols to bell n symbols with slightly different shapes and colors may be provided as the small role explicit identification information. Further, it is not always necessary to stop the small role explicit identification information on the winning line, and the bell symbol may be displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window even on the non-winning line.

  FIG. 66 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  66 (A) to 66 (C) are in exactly the same state as FIGS. When the player operates the right stop button 10c in the second stop (see FIG. 66 (D)), the main control unit 100 controls the right drum 2c to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the FR2 blue lip symbol or white The lip symbol is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 66 (E)). In this case, since the operation procedure is incorrect, no. When the upper 9 Chile symbol is manipulated on the winning line, slide 3 frames to No. No. 6 white lip symbol is stopped on the winning line, and the small role FR2 having a small number of payouts but a large number of symbol combinations is in a tempered state. When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop, the main control unit 100 controls the left drum 2a to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and stops the FR2 blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol on the winning line. (See FIG. 66F). In this case, only FR2 can be won (FR1 cannot win), but the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol is arranged on the left drum 2a at intervals of 4 frames (or within 0 to 4 frames). Since any blue lip symbol or white lip symbol can be stopped on the winning line (for example, No. 1 blue lip symbol), FR2 always wins. Therefore, FR2 can be said to be a small role (second inhibition small role) for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of FR1 when the first stop operation is correct and the second stop operation is wrong. In addition, it is possible to miss FR2 with a probability of 1/2 to 1/4, but the small role to be won at the same time is complicated, and even if you win a prize, it will be 1 piece so Since it does not influence so much, even if the second stop is an erroneous operation, FR2 is sure to win.

  FIG. 67 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 67A is exactly the same as FIG. 65A, so the description is incorporated.

  When all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 67A), the main control unit 100 operates the left stop button 10a in the first stop (see FIG. 67B). ), The left drum 2a is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol of FR3 or the white lip symbol of FR4 is stopped on the winning line. In this case, since the operation procedure is incorrect, no. When the red watermelon design of No. 4 is operated on the winning line, it is slid by 3 frames and the FR3 no. 1 indicates that the blue lip symbol of 1 is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 67C). This is because the combination symbol of FR3 with a small number of payouts but a large number of symbol combinations is drawn preferentially, and at this point, there is no possibility of winning only FR3. Become). It should be noted that if it was originally slipped 4 frames, the FR1 No. Although it is possible to stop 20 bell symbols on the winning line, the FR3 winning is blocked by the FR3. If the operation timing is different, the FR4 white lip symbol stops on the winning line, so that only FR4 has the possibility of winning. Therefore, it can be said that FR3 and FR4 are small roles (first inhibition small roles) for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of FR1 when the first stop operation is incorrect. FR3 wins on the condition that the red watermelon symbol or upper chile symbol stops on the middle drum 2b, and the seven symbol or green watermelon symbol stops on the right drum 2c, but the probability of stopping is 1 for the middle drum 2b. / 2 and right drum 2c are 1/2, so FR3 wins only with a probability of 1/4. Similarly, FR4 wins on the condition that the middle drum 2b stops with a seven symbol or green watermelon symbol and the right drum 2c stops with a red watermelon symbol or lower chile symbol, but the probability of stopping is medium drum Since 2b is 1/2 and the right drum 2c is 1/2, FR3 wins only with a probability of 1/4.

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the second stop, the main control unit 100 controls the middle drum 2b to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the FR3 red watermelon symbol or lower chile symbol has a probability of 1/2. (See FIG. 67D. In this example, the red watermelon symbol). On the other hand, since the red watermelon symbol and the lower Chile symbol of FR3 cannot be stopped on the winning line with a probability of 1/2, they are stopped at the edge (see FIG. 67 (F)). When the player operates the right stop button 10c with the third stop in the state shown in FIG. 67D, the main control unit 100 controls the right drum 2c to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the FR3 seven symbol or green watermelon When the symbol is stopped on the winning line with a probability of 1/2, FR3 wins (see FIG. 67E. In this example, the seven symbol). In other words, when the push order small combination is won internally, when the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop operation, only one small combination is won with a probability of 1/4, so that the game medium is consumed. It becomes possible. And if a player stops other than the left drum 2a (specific reel drum) by the first stop operation, a lottery for performing a specific game (for example, an assist game) is not performed, or a digest game is added to the number of ceiling games. Giving a big penalty such as not doing. Even if the player is prepared for a penalty and operates the stop button unit 10 in the order of right middle, left, and game media will eventually decrease.

  FIG. 68 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  FIG. 68 (A) is exactly the same as FIG. 65 (A), so the description is incorporated.

  When all the drums in the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 68A), the main control unit 100 operates the right stop button 10c in the first stop (see FIG. 68B). ), The right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the FR3 seven symbol or the green watermelon symbol or the FR4 red watermelon symbol or the lower chile symbol is stopped on the winning line. In this case, since the operation procedure is incorrect, no. When the 11 white lip symbol was operated on the winning line, it was slid one frame and the FR3 no. 10 indicates that the lower Chile symbol has been stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 68C). This is because the combination symbol of FR4 with a small number of payouts but a large number of symbol combinations is drawn preferentially, and at this point, there is no possibility of winning only FR4. Become). It should be noted that if it was originally slipped 3 frames, the FR1 No. Although it is possible to stop the 8 bell symbols on the winning line, the FR4 win is blocked by the FR4. If the operation timing is different, the red watermelon symbol of FR4, the seven symbol of FR3, or the green watermelon symbol stops on the winning line, so only FR3 or FR4 can be won anyway. Therefore, it can be said that FR3 and FR4 are small roles (first inhibition small roles) for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of FR1 when the first stop operation is incorrect. FR4 wins because it is a condition that the white lip symbol stops on the left drum 2a and the seven symbol or green watermelon symbol stops on the middle drum 2b, so it wins only with a predetermined probability (in other words, FR3 May be missed).

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the second stop, the main control unit 100 controls the middle drum 2b to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the FR4 seven symbol or green watermelon symbol has a probability of 1/2. Stop on the winning line (see FIG. 68D. In this example, green watermelon symbol). On the other hand, since the FR4 Seven symbol and the green watermelon symbol cannot be stopped on the winning line with a probability of 1/2, they are stopped at the edge (see FIG. 68 (F)). When the player operates the left stop button 10a with the third stop in the state shown in FIG. 68 (D), the main control unit 100 controls the left drum 2a to stop based on the sliding piece number data, and the white lip pattern of FR4 is set to 3. When it stops on the winning line with a probability of / 4, FR4 wins (see FIG. 68E). That is, when the push order small combination is won internally, when the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop operation, only one small combination wins with a predetermined probability (low probability), so the game medium is It can be consumed. In addition, since the main control part 100 performs the same stop control also about the other seven push order bells (push order bell 1b to push order bell 4b), description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 69 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  The normal replay 1 is a lottery target for both the general game and the RBB inside game shown in FIG. On the other hand, normal replay 2, bell replay 1 and bell replay 2 are subject to lottery in the RBB inside game, but are not lottery in the general game. In other words, in the game inside the RBB (see the hatched portion in FIG. 53 (A)) in which the RBB flag is set and the high probability replaying state is set, all replay roles are randomly selected. A player basically repeats a special game that activates the normal game and the assist function in the gaming state inside the RBB, but the RBB that won internally is either in the single winning state or in the single winning state Occasionally, you win if you aim for the BAR symbol on the left, the green watermelon symbol on the inside, and the red watermelon symbol on the right, but such a situation is very rare, and if you win the RBB you will only get a penalty Rather, in the bonus game, the number of medals is reduced or the current situation is maintained (no increase or decrease), so the RBB is not dared to win. Further, even if the step set value is re-entered, the state inside the RBB is maintained, so the player plays the game in this gaming state.

  The main control unit 100 raises the RP1 to RP3, RP14 and RP15 flags when the normal replay 1 shown in FIG. Accordingly, as an internal winning state, as a result, six bonus flags, RP1 to RP3, RP14 and RP15 flags are set. Note that the main control unit 100 controls the replay symbol to be drawn on the winning line in preference to the bonus symbol and stops it, and any of the replay roles always wins. Therefore, when the replay role is won, the bonus role is won. Never do.

  The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table based on stop control data, operation procedure, and operation position (operation timing) stored until all the drums of the drum unit 2 rotate at a constant speed. For example, in the first stop, the middle stop button 10b is No. Assume that 15 bell symbols were operated at a position on the winning line. Eleven white lip symbols are stopped on the winning line. Of course, no. When 14 red watermelon symbols are operated at the position on the winning line, at that time, three frames are slid. When the lower Chile pattern is 13, slide 2 frames. When the upper Chile pattern is 12, slide one frame. In the case of 11 white lip symbols, 0 frames are slid. In this manner, the number of sliding frames for moving the reel is calculated in advance for all operation positions (total 60 frame positions), and the reel is moved and stopped immediately after the stop operation.

  The main control unit 100 operates the left stop button 10a at a first stop (operating or operating according to a predetermined operation procedure) while all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 69A). When the left 1st operation is performed (see FIG. 69B), the left drum 2a is stopped based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol of RP1 is stopped on the winning line. In this case, the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a (left 1st). When 15 bell symbols were manipulated on the winning line, slide 4 frames to get RP1 No. 11 indicates that the white lip symbol has been stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 69C). This is because when the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a and the left drum 2a stops first, the main control unit 100 is programmed to perform stop control so that RP1 wins. At this time, only RP1 can be won.

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the second stop, the main control unit 100 controls the middle drum 2b to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and receives either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol of RP1 as the winning line. Stop on top. In this case, no. 10 shows a state in which the blue lip symbol is stopped (see FIG. 69D). When the right stop button 10c is operated at the third stop thereafter, the right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol of RP1 is stopped on the winning line. In this case, no. 1 shows a state where the blue lip symbol is stopped. When RP1 wins, the replay combination explicit identification information (replaying combination explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the central horizontal line of the symbol display window (FIG. 69 (E )reference). FIG. 69F shows a case where the player operates the right stop button 10c in the second stop (presses scissors) and stops in the same manner. When RP1 wins, the replay role explicit identification information is displayed as a symbol. It is displayed in a straight line on the central horizontal line of the window (see FIG. 69 (E)).

  FIG. 70 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  Since FIG. 70A is in exactly the same state as FIG. 69A, description is incorporated.

  The main control unit 100 is configured such that the player stops No. When the middle stop button 10b is operated at a timing when the seven symbols of 2 are retracted (operated by a specific operation procedure) (see FIG. 70B), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and RP14 and RP15 The common 7 symbols are stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 70C). The main control unit 100 determines that the player stops the second stop button 10a and presses the left stop button 10a. When the operation is performed at the timing when the 7 symbol of 2 is retracted (operated according to a predetermined operation procedure; 2nd left), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the 7 symbols common to RP14 and RP15 are placed on the winning line. Stop (see FIG. 70D). Then, the main control unit 100 sets the right stop button 10c to No. When the operation is performed at the timing when the 7 symbol of 2 is retracted (operated according to a predetermined operation procedure, 3rd right), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the 7 symbol of RP14 is stopped on the winning line. (See FIG. 70 (E)), but if the third stop operation is performed at a timing at which the Seven symbols cannot be withdrawn, the bell symbol is stopped on the winning line and RP15 is awarded (not shown). On the other hand, in the state of FIG. 70 (C), if the left 2nd operation is performed at a timing at which the Seven symbols cannot be drawn, the bell symbol of RP15 is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 70 (F)). In the state of FIG. 5 or No. Even if the right 3rd operation is performed at the timing when the BAR symbol of 20 is retracted, the main control unit 100 does not stop the BAR symbol of RP14 on the winning line. Stop the 3rd prize bell on the winning line. That is, in the case of the normal replay 1, when the 7 symbols can be drawn in a specific operation order (middle left and right order), the 7 symbols are displayed in a straight line and the RP 14 wins, while the third stop Even if the BAR symbol can be pulled in, RP15 wins without winning RP14. Note that the main control unit 100 sets the middle stop button 10b to No. When the second 7 symbol is operated at a timing at which it cannot be pulled in, the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol is stopped on the winning line (not shown). In the subsequent operation, either RP1 or RP2 wins, and the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in the middle line of the symbol display window or in the upper right line (not shown). In addition, when the 2nd right operation is performed in the state of FIG. 70C, the bell symbol is stopped, the bell symbol is stopped by the third stop operation, and the RP 15 wins (the stop display mode is “bell symbol, seven Design, bell design).

  FIG. 71 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  Since FIG. 71A is in the same state as FIG. 69A, description is incorporated.

  The main control unit 100 is configured such that the player stops No. When the right stop button 10c is operated at a timing at which the lower 10 symbols are retracted (see FIG. 71B), the right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the lower RP3 symbols are placed on the winning line. Stop (see FIG. 71C). In this state, it is already impossible to win other than RP3. The main control unit 100 sets the middle stop button 10b to No. 12 is operated when the lower dust pattern is located at the upper stage, the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the frame is slid 4 frames. 9 red watermelon symbols are stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 71D). Furthermore, the player stops the left stop button 10a at the third stop, 13 is operated when the lower Chile symbol is located at the upper stage, the left drum 2a is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the frame is slid 4 frames. 10 bell symbols are stopped on the winning line. When RP3 wins, a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed on the lower horizontal line in the symbol display window (see FIG. 71E). FIG. 71 (F) shows a case where the player operates the left stop button 10a at the same timing in the second stop, and RP3 always wins anyway.

Description of normal replay 2 (not shown):
The main control unit 100 raises the RP1, RP2, RP14, and RP15 flags when the normal replay 2 shown in FIG. 64 is won by random lottery in a game in which the bonus combination is won internally. Therefore, as an internal winning state, as a result, the bonus flag, RP1, RP2, RP14 and RP15 flags are set. Note that the main control unit 100 controls the replay symbol to be drawn on the winning line in preference to the bonus symbol and stops it, and any of the replay roles always wins. Therefore, when the replay role is won, the bonus role is won. Never do.

  When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the first stop (forward press or scissors press), the main control unit 100 controls the left drum 2a to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the blue lip pattern or white lip of RP1. One of the symbols is stopped on the winning line, and RP1 is won by a subsequent stop operation. RP14 wins when you operate the 7 symbol at the middle 1st, the 7 symbol at the 2nd left, and the BAR symbol at the 3rd right, and the RP14 wins, and the (7 symbol, 7 symbol, BAR symbol) is displayed in the center horizontal line of the symbol display window. The If you miss it, RP15 or RP1 of another symbol will win. When the right 1st stop operation is performed, RP2 wins and replay combination explicit identification information (regame combination explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the right oblique upward line of the symbol display window.

  FIG. 72 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  The main control unit 100 raises the RP1 to RP4, RP14 and RP15 flags when the bell replay 1 shown in FIG. 64 is won by random lottery in a game in which the bonus combination is won internally. Accordingly, as an internal winning state, as a result, seven bonus flags, RP1 to RP4, RP14 and RP15 flags are set. Note that the main control unit 100 controls the replay symbol to be drawn on the winning line in preference to the bonus symbol and stops it, and any of the replay roles always wins. Therefore, when the replay role is won, the bonus role is won. Never do.

  When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the first stop (operating according to a predetermined operation procedure or 1st left operation) (see FIG. 72B), the main control unit 100 performs the left drum 2a based on the sliding frame number data. Is controlled to stop either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol common to RP1 and RP4 on the winning line. In this case, the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a (left 1st). When 15 bell symbols are manipulated on the winning line, slide 4 frames and change the numbers of RP1 and RP4. 11 indicates that the white lip symbol has been stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 72C). This is because when the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a and the left drum 2a is first stopped, the main control unit 100 stops either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol on the winning line. Because it is programmed.

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the second stop, the main control unit 100 controls the middle drum 2b to stop based on the sliding frame number data and stops the bell symbol of RP4 on the winning line. In this case, no. 8 shows a state in which the bell symbol 8 is stopped (see FIG. 72D). This is because, when the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a (forward press or scissor press), the main control unit 100 is programmed so that the RP4 is won in preference to other replay roles. is there. At this point, only RP4 can be won. When the right stop button 10c is operated at the third stop thereafter, the right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and any of the RP4 seven symbol, red watermelon symbol or green watermelon symbol is placed on the winning line. Stop. In this case, no. 7 shows a state in which the seven symbols are stopped, and when the RP 4 wins, the small role explicit identification information is displayed in a straight line on the right-down diagonal line of the symbol display window (see FIG. 72E). FIG. 72 (F) shows a case where the player operates the right stop button 10c at the second stop (presses the scissors) and preferentially stops the RP4 symbol as in the case of the forward press. When winning, a bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window (see FIG. 72E).

  FIG. 73 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  Since FIG. 73A is in exactly the same state as FIG.

  The main control unit 100 is configured such that the player stops No. When the middle stop button 10b is operated at a timing when the seven symbols of 2 are retracted (operated by a specific operation procedure) (see FIG. 73B), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and RP14 and RP15 The common 7 symbols are stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 73C). The main control unit 100 determines that the player stops the second stop button 10a and presses the left stop button 10a. When the operation is performed at the timing when the 7 symbol of 2 is retracted (operated according to a predetermined operation procedure; 2nd left), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the 7 symbols common to RP14 and RP15 are placed on the winning line. Stop (see FIG. 73D). Then, the main control unit 100 sets the right stop button 10c to No. When the operation is performed at the timing when the 7 symbol of 2 is retracted (operated according to a predetermined operation procedure, 3rd right), the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the 7 symbol of RP14 is stopped on the winning line. (See FIG. 73E), if the third stop operation is performed at a timing at which the Seven symbols cannot be drawn, the bell symbol is stopped on the winning line and RP15 is awarded (not shown). On the other hand, in the state of FIG. 73 (C), if the left 2nd operation is performed at a timing at which the Seven symbols cannot be drawn, the bell symbol of RP15 is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 73 (F)). Note that in the state of FIG. 5 or No. Even if the right 3rd operation is performed at the timing when the BAR symbol of 20 is retracted, the main control unit 100 does not stop the BAR symbol of RP14 on the winning line. Stop the 3rd prize bell on the winning line. In other words, in the case of the bell replay 1, when the seven symbols can be drawn in a specific operation order (middle left and right order), the seven symbols are displayed in a straight line, and the RP 14 wins, while the BAR is stopped at the third stop. Even if the symbol can be withdrawn, RP15 wins without winning RP14. The main control unit 100 sets the middle stop button 10b to No. when the player stops for the first time. When the second 7 symbol is operated at a timing at which it cannot be pulled in, the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol is stopped on the winning line (not shown). In the subsequent operation, either RP1 or RP2 wins, and the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in the middle line of the symbol display window or in the upper right line (not shown). In addition, when the 2nd right operation is performed in the state of FIG. 73 (C), the bell symbol is stopped, the bell symbol is stopped by the third stop operation, and RP15 wins (the stop display mode is “bell symbol, seven symbol”). "Bell design").

  FIG. 74 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  Since FIG. 74A is in the same state as FIG. 72A, description is incorporated.

  The main control unit 100 is configured such that the player stops No. When the right stop button 10c is operated at the timing when the 14 blank symbols are positioned on the winning line (see FIG. 74B), the right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the red watermelon symbol of RP2 is awarded. Stop on the line (see FIG. 74C). In this state, the white lip symbol stops at the upper stage, and it is already impossible to win other than RP2 or RP4. The main control unit 100 sets the middle stop button 10b to No. 11 is operated when the upper Chile symbol is positioned on the winning line, the middle drum 2b is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the No. 11 sliding is performed. 7 blue lip symbol is stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 74D). In this case, no. Although it is possible to stop the ten blue lip symbols, stop control is intentionally performed so that the slip amount is intentionally increased. In this state, the replay symbol is tempered, but it is no longer possible to win other than RP2. Furthermore, the player stops the left stop button 10a at the third stop, If the red watermelon symbol No. 14 is positioned on the winning line, the left drum 2a is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and the No. 14 slide is performed. 10 bell symbols are stopped on the winning line. When RP2 wins, a blue lip symbol or a white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the diagonal upper right of the symbol display window (see FIG. 74E). FIG. 74 (F) shows a case where the player operates the left stop button 10a at the same timing in the second stop, and RP2 always wins anyway. However, depending on the operation timing of the right stop button 10c, RP1 (see FIG. 69 (E)) or RP3 (see FIG. 71 (E)) wins, and the blue lip symbol or white lip symbol (replay role explicit identification information) is a symbol. It is displayed in a straight line on the display window.

  FIG. 75 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  The main control unit 100 raises the RP1 to RP3, RP5, RP14, and RP15 flags when the replay 2 shown in FIG. 64 is won by random lottery in a game in which the bonus combination is won internally. Therefore, as an internal winning state, as a result, seven bonus flags, RP1 to RP3, RP5, RP14, and RP15 flag flags are set. Note that the main control unit 100 controls the replay symbol to be drawn on the winning line in preference to the bonus symbol and stops it, and any of the replay roles always wins. Therefore, when the replay role is won, the bonus role is won. Never do.

  As with the bell replay 1, the main control unit 100 determines the sliding piece based on the stop control data, operation procedure, and operation position (operation timing) stored until all the drums of the drum unit 2 rotate at a constant speed. Create a number table. The main control unit 100 operates the left stop button 10a with the first stop (operating according to a predetermined operation procedure) while all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 75A). When the left 1st operation is performed (see FIG. 75B), the left drum 2a is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the blue lip symbol or the white lip symbol is stopped on the winning line (the bell symbol in the upper row). Is displayed). In this case, the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a (left 1st). When 15 bell symbols were manipulated on the winning line, slide 4 frames to get RP1 No. 11 white lip symbols are stopped on the winning line (see FIG. 75C). This is because when the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a and the left drum 2a stops first, the main control unit 100 is programmed to perform stop control so that RP5 wins. At this time, only RP1 or RP5 can be won, but as will be described later, stop control is performed so that RP1 does not win by the left 1st operation.

  When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the second stop, the main control unit 100 controls the middle drum 2b to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the red watermelon symbol or the green watermelon symbol of RP5 is a winning line. Stop on top. In this case, no. 9 shows a state in which the red watermelon symbol 9 is stopped (see FIG. 75D). When the right stop button 10c is operated in the third stop thereafter, the right drum 2c is controlled to stop based on the sliding frame number data, and either the upper chilli symbol or the blank symbol of RP5 is stopped on the winning line. In this case, no. 4 shows a state in which the blank symbol is stopped. When RP5 wins, a bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the upper stage of the symbol display window (see FIG. 75E). FIG. 75 (F) shows a case where the player operates the right stop button 10c in the second stop (presses scissors) and stops in the same manner. ) Is displayed in a straight line on the upper horizontal line of the symbol display window (see FIG. 75E).

  The main control unit 100 wins RP14 when the Bell Replay 2 is internally selected, and operates with the 7th symbol in the 1st, the 7th symbol in the 2nd left, and the BAR symbol in the 3rd right. (Seven symbol, Seven symbol, BAR symbol) are displayed. Even if the 3rd right operation is performed at the timing when the Seven R symbol of 2 is retracted, the Seven symbol of RP14 is not stopped on the winning line, and No. Stop the 3rd prize bell on the winning line. If it is missed, RP15 (Seven Symbol, Seven Symbol, Bell Symbol), RP1 or RP2 of other symbols wins. When the right 1st stop operation is performed, RP3 wins and replay combination explicit identification information (regame combination explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. If Bell Replay 2 or Bell Replay 1 is won internally during AT (during a special game where the assist function is activated), the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is not displayed in a straight line, so the right 1st stop operation sequence (right and left) Middle or right middle left). Thus, it is possible to solve the problem that the bell symbols (small role explicit identification information) are displayed in a straight line even though no medals are paid out, and the player does not feel uncomfortable. That is, the feature of the present invention is that when the bell replay combination is won internally, the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window at the left 1st, while the bell symbol is displayed on the symbol display window at other than the left 1st. This is a point that is not displayed in a straight line. In addition, both the middle 1st and right 1st can display the replay role explicit identification information (replaying game explicit identification information) in a straight line on the symbol display window.

  FIG. 76 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure up to the start of ART.

  The player plays a game in a high-probability re-playing state in which the bonus combination (RBB or CBB) described in FIG. 53A is internally won (the normal game and the special game. Then, a winning operation procedure advantageous to the player is notified.). On the other hand, it is not assumed that the player actually wins a bonus combination in the game hall and plays a bonus game (RBB game or CBB game), and since it is a penalty state in the game, the description is omitted.

  When the power is turned on and the stage is set and the normal game is started ("game start" in the figure), the sub-control unit 160 determines either the normal mode (step S500) or the high probability mode (step S510) by lottery. . The sub-control unit 160 performs a lottery of AT (assist time, third bonus or pseudo bonus) when a specific opportunity combination is won in the random lottery by the main control unit 100 in step S520. If the AT lottery is not won in step S522, the sub-control unit 160 performs a mode transition lottery in step S524, and proceeds to step S500 or step S510. For example, when a rare small role (cherry, watermelon, chance chance, etc.) is won as a specific opportunity, a lottery for shifting to the high probability mode is performed, while a lottery for shifting to the normal mode is performed when the replay is won. In this high probability mode, the sub-control unit 160 selects one of a plurality of lottery tables having different AT winning probabilities, and wins an AT with a high probability of about 10 to 100 times compared to the normal mode. Let As a relief measure, even if the digest game reaches the number of ceiling games, the AT is forced to win.

  When an operation other than the left 1st operation is performed in the normal game, the sub-control unit 160 generates a warning sound “bububu” to notify the player that the operation is a penalty operation. This penalty operation is executed when the push order small combination is won internally, and if the “target small combination” that constitutes the push order small combination that should not be won is won, the AT lottery will not be performed for a predetermined number of games. Giving a big penalty. In that case, even if you draw a rare role during the penalty period, you will not be able to receive an AT lottery and you will not get any game benefits, so the player will perform the first left operation (operating in a specific procedure) with a low turnout rate. It is. Therefore, when the normal replay 1 or the normal replay 2 is won internally, the replay combination is won by the left 1st operation, and the replay combination explicit identification information is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. Then, the main control unit 100 immediately turns on all (three) the number-of-insertion LEDs 4a, and when the player operates the start lever, performs a role lottery and starts a game (however, 4.1 seconds have passed between games). Rotate the reel as a requirement). On the other hand, when the bell replay 1 or the bell replay 2 is won internally, the main control unit 100 wins the replay by the left 1st operation, and the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window. Then, the bell replay processing subroutine is called.

  FIG. 77 is a flowchart showing a bell replay processing subroutine.

  When the main control unit 100 calls this subroutine, it starts time measurement in step S600 (for example, starts a 20-second timer). The main control unit 100 determines whether or not the start lever 9 has been operated in step S610. If the start lever 9 has been operated, the timing is terminated in step S640, and the process proceeds to step S650. If not, the process proceeds to step S620. Transition. The main control unit 100 determines whether or not an input has been made in step S620. If the input has been made, the main control unit 100 finishes timing in step S640 and proceeds to step S650. If not, the process proceeds to step S630. This “insertion” is to directly insert the game medal into the medal insertion slot or to operate the max bet button 8 (a 1 BET button operation may be performed).

  The main control unit 100 determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed in step S630. If not, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S610. If it has elapsed, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S650. When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S650, all (three) of the input number LEDs 4a are turned on, and this subroutine is finished. That is, when the bell replay 1 or the bell replay 2 wins and the bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line on the symbol display window, the inserted number LED 4a is turned on after the predetermined time is counted. The timing is canceled by a closing operation or a closing operation before timing. Even if the max bet button 8 is operated, the stored quantity displayed by the medal stored number display LED 4b does not decrease. Further, when medals are directly inserted by the inserting operation, the amount of the medals is added to the stored quantity displayed by the medal stored number display LED 4b. If a bell symbol (small role explicit identification information) is displayed in a straight line in the symbol display window by winning the bell replay, the player feels that the small role has won, and operates the max bet button 8 in a familiar procedure. This way of processing does not cause a sense of incongruity. Similarly, when the start lever 9 is operated before timing a predetermined time, the timing is canceled and the input number LED 4a is turned on. The reason for providing the bell replay is to give the player the impression that a small payout of 3 cards is won because the normal game is in a high probability replay state and the replay is frequently won.

  Here, returning to FIG. 76 and continuing the description, when the sub control unit 160 wins the AT lottery in step S522, the AT type lottery (step S526) for determining the pseudo big bonus or the pseudo regular bonus, An AT stock number lottery (step S528) and a precursor game number lottery (step S530) are performed. The number of precursor games is the number of games required to notify the player that the AT has been won, and the transition to the precursor mode in step S532 is continued for about 32 games from 8 games. In step S534, the sub-control unit 160 performs an AT winning determination effect (for example, a display effect of “bonus determination”), and plays a preparation game until the replay role is won and a bonus symbol is displayed (step S536). For example, when the pseudo big bonus is determined in the AT type lottery, the bonus confirmation display (WIN display) is continued, and when the normal replay 1 or the bell replay 1 is won, the middle and right operation order and “777” are aimed. indicate. When the player aims at the 7 symbol at the middle 1st, aims at the 7 symbol at the 2nd left, and aims at the 7 symbol at the 3rd right, the player moves to step S538 and starts AT game. Similarly, in the case of the pseudo-regular bonus, when the normal replay 2 or the bell replay 2 is won, the middle and left operation order and “77BAR” are displayed. If the player aims at the 7 symbol at the middle 1st, aims at the 7 symbol at the left 2nd, and aims at the BAR symbol at the 3rd right, 77BAR is displayed, and the process proceeds to step S538 to start the AT game. However, if the operation timing is wrong even if the pressing order is correct, the replay role of another symbol wins and “777” or “77BAR” is not displayed, but if the pressing order is correct, AT game starts. To do.

  The sub-control unit 160 performs an extra lottery every time a specific opportunity that triggers the extra lottery in step S540 is won internally, and the number of AT extras won (the number of games, the number of games, the number of wins in the push order small role, etc.) Alternatively, the number of stocks (number of sets, number of loops, etc.) is displayed on the display effect device 11. Naturally, the sub-control unit 160 adds the added number to the remaining number and displays it in the display effect device 11 or stores it in the RAM.

  Specific triggers include, for example, single cherry, strong cherry, weak cherry, strong watermelon, weak watermelon, strong chance eyes, and weak chance eyes. Expected number of games to be added (expected value): average average 100 games for single cherry, average 50 games for strong cherry, average 20 games for weak cherry, average 75 games for strong watermelon, average 10 games for weak watermelon, average for strong chance There are 200 games and an average of 30 games with a weak chance, and the sub-control unit 160 performs random lottery using the extra lottery table corresponding to each specific opportunity and determines the extra number. The single cherry addition lottery table is 5% for 500 games, 5% for 200 games, 50% for 100 games, 30% for 50 games, and 10% for 0 games (losing) according to random numbers. The average value added is 100 games. For example, random numbers from 0 to 99 are generated, and the extracted random numbers are 0 to 9, 0 games (losing), 10 to 59, 100 games, 60 to 89, 50 games, 90 to 94, 200 games, 95 to 99 500 games are won. In addition, strong cherry, weak cherry, strong watermelon, weak watermelon, strong chance eyes, weak chance eyes, etc. are additional lottery tables with the same configuration, and the explanation is omitted because the allocation and the number of winning games and the expected number of additional games are different. To do.

  When the process proceeds to step S544, the sub control unit 160 determines whether or not the special addition condition is satisfied. For example, when a special opportunity combination is won, a special extra lottery is executed, and if it is won, a condition is established. This condition is also satisfied when the opponent's HP (hit point) becomes zero in the battle between the hero and the enemy character and the hero wins. When the special addition condition is satisfied in step S544, the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S546 and selects one of the plurality of special addition zones. For example, the special extra zone A is a zone where only 3 games are added and drawn (the expected additional value is about 30), the special added zone B is a zone where only 5 games are added and drawn (the expected additional value is about 50), and the special added zone C Is a zone in which a lottery is made only during the game until it is out of the continuous lottery (the expected additional value is about 100). The value won in this extra lottery (number of games, number of navigations, number of payouts, etc.) is a numerical value for activating the assist function, and, like the extra lottery described above, the extra number is added to the remaining number and the display effect device 11 is displayed or stored in the RAM.

  In particular, when the special extra zone D is selected, the special button 14 is repeatedly hit, and a continuous lottery (puncture lottery or a falling lottery) and an extra lottery are performed for each operation, and the continuous lottery is excluded (puncture lottery). Or winning the falling lottery), the sum of the values won in the extra lottery is used as an additional number for activating the assist function, and this additional number is added to the remaining number to display on the display effect device 11 and in the RAM. Remember.

  FIG. 78 is a flowchart showing a processing subroutine for the special extra zone D. 79 and 80 are flowcharts showing the freeze effect processing subroutine.

  When the sub-control unit 160 shifts to the special addition zone D in step S546, either the freeze effect 1 in which the blue 7 symbols are aligned in a straight line by the pressing order or the freeze effect 2 in which the red 7 symbols are aligned in a straight line by the pressing order It is determined whether to make a lottery (step S700). In the case of the red 7 symbol, the special extra game is only once, but in the case of the blue 7 symbol, the special extra game is two or more times (multiple times), which is advantageous to the player. The winning ratio of Blue 7 design is about 20%, and Blue 7 design is aligned about once every 5 times.

  When the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S710, the sub-control unit 160 waits for a notification from the main control unit 100 that the GRP (group replay) 1 to GRP7 of the freeze trigger has been won, and if none of the group replays wins, step S715 After performing the normal process at step S710, the process returns to step S710 to loop. For example, the normal process of step S715 is a process of informing a winning operation sequence by activating an assist function when a push order small combination is won. That is, it can be said that step S710 and step S715 are standby states until the special addition game is started.

  The group replay is the upper blue 7 replay in which the blue 7 symbol is displayed on the upper horizontal line of the display window, and the blue 7 symbol is displayed on the upper right line of the display window (lower blue 7, middle blue 7, upper blue 7). Multiple replays such as the upper right blue 7 replay, the red 7 symbol displayed in the middle horizontal line of the display window, the normal red 7 replay, and the normal replay symbol displayed in the lower horizontal line of the display window. It is a replay combination that is won at the same time, and each group replay has different types and combinations of internal replay combinations. Due to this difference, the replays displayed by winning according to the pressing order are made different.

  Referring to FIG. 79, when the start operation of the symbol display game is performed in step S800, main control unit 100 executes a lottery of symbols (symbol lottery), and notifies sub-control unit 160 of the internal winning combination (lottery result). To do. It should be noted that various information can be appropriately transmitted from the main control unit 100 to the sub control unit 160 to directly transmit the gaming state and commands, but conversely, the information is directly transmitted from the sub control unit 160 to the main control unit 100. I can't. That is, only one-way communication from the main control unit 100 to the sub-control unit 160 is allowed, and bidirectional communication is not possible. In other words, the main control means is configured not to receive information from the sub-control means while transmitting information in one direction to the sub-control means.

  In step S810, the main control unit 100 determines that one of the GRP (group replay) 1 to GRP7 of the freezing opportunity has been won, and if it is the freezing opportunity, the process proceeds to step S815, but must be the freezing opportunity. In step S860, normal processing such as stop control and medal payout is performed.

  Referring to FIG. 78, when the sub-control unit 160 receives a notification that the freeze trigger (in this case, GRP1) has been won from the main control unit 100 in step S710, in step S720, the sub-control unit 160 displays the winning symbols (the symbols to be displayed in a straight line). ), The process proceeds to step S730 if it is a blue 7 symbol, and the display operation order of the blue 7 symbol is notified, whereas if it is a red 7 symbol, the process proceeds to step S750 and the display operation order of the red 7 symbol is displayed. Is notified. If the red 7 symbol is displayed after the end of the next game (next symbol display game), the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S760 and executes the special addition game only once. On the other hand, when the blue 7 symbol is displayed, the process proceeds to step S740, and in addition to at least once, the special addition game is performed for the number of designated additions (1 to 255 times) notified from the main control unit 100. Run. Therefore, in the case of the blue 7 symbol, the minimum is 2 times or more and the maximum is 256 times. For example, assuming 5 times, the first special addition game is executed after the first symbol display game is finished, the second special addition game is executed after the second symbol display game is finished, and the last After the end of the fifth symbol display game, the fifth extra game is executed. In other words, 5 special games are added 5 times in succession. In addition, in order to perform a reel effect on the main control unit 100 in a frozen state (a state in which the progress of the game is delayed) from the start of the next game until the regular operation of the stop button unit 10 becomes possible, the main control unit 100 Although the designated number of additions is determined and notified, the special addition game may be executed simply by the number determined by the sub-control unit 160.

  Referring to FIG. 79, when the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S815, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the operation is a freeze procedure corresponding to the freeze trigger. If it is a freeze procedure, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S820, while Otherwise, the process proceeds to step S860. As will be described later, the freeze procedure of GRP1 is 1st on the right, blue 7 symbols are aligned at 2nd in the middle, and red 7 symbols are aligned at 2nd on the left. When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S820, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not a specific external concentrated terminal board signal (hereinafter also referred to as a “collecting signal”) is ON. The specific collecting signal is a signal indicating an assist bonus referred to as a third bonus, and a bell replay combination in which a small role explicit identification information is displayed in a straight line in a non-AT state (non-assist state). In the case of internal winning, it is turned ON when operated in the operation order in which the re-game player explicit identification information is displayed instead of the left 1st, and is turned OFF when operated on the left 1st. That is, it is a signal that is turned on when the main control unit 100 recognizes that it is currently in AT, but is turned off when it is recognized that it is not in AT. If the collecting signal is ON, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S830, whereas if it is OFF, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S860. As a result, even when the freeze trigger is won while outputting a signal indicating the non-AT state, and the player accidentally operates the stop button in the freeze procedure by a penalty operation, the main control unit 100 does not perform the freeze effect. In other words, the main control unit 100 performs the freeze effect only when the freeze trigger is won while outputting the signal indicating the AT state and the player operates the stop button in the freeze procedure.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S830 and displays the blue 7 symbol (right 1st, middle 2nd), the main control unit 100 executes the delay process 1 in step S840 and displays the red 7 symbol. In the case (right 1st, left 2nd), the delay process 2 is executed in step S850. The delay process 1 is relatively long, such as about 20 seconds, and is provided for notifying that a special extra game will be performed after a freeze effect using a reel is performed at the start of the next game. The delay process 2 is relatively short, about 5 seconds, and only notifies that a special extra game is performed at the end of the next game. When these processes are finished, one game is finished. Even if the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol are not displayed in a straight line, the delay process 1 or the delay process 2 is executed as long as the operation order is the same. In other words, the player does not lose even if he cannot push his eyes.

  Referring to FIG. 80, when the next game is started by the start operation, the main control unit 100 executes a lottery of symbols (symbol lottery) when the process proceeds to step S900. In step S910, it is determined whether the start condition of the reel freeze effect is satisfied (that is, the operation is performed in the operation order of the blue 7 symbol display corresponding to the freeze trigger). If the start condition is not satisfied, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S990 to execute normal processing. If the start condition is satisfied, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S920 and turns on the effect display LED 4f. Then, the number N of times of displaying the blue 7 symbol or the red 7 symbol in a straight line is determined by lottery, and the sub-control unit 160 is notified of the number of times of display N.

  The main control unit 100 rotates all the reels in step S930. However, the main control unit 100 does not perform normal rotation control but rotates for reel production. When any of the stop button units 10 is operated in step S940, the main control unit 100 causes the corresponding drum unit 2 to be pseudo-stopped (temporarily stopped). This pseudo stop does not completely stop the drum unit 2, but continues to move up and down without changing the stop position. Note that if at least one reel of the drum unit 2 is rotating but the corresponding stop button unit is not operated, one rotating unit is rotated when a predetermined time (about 20 seconds) elapses. Since the reels are stopped in order from the left, the drum unit 2 is pseudo-stopped in a maximum of 60 seconds. Further, when the two reels are stopped, the blue 7 symbol or the red 7 symbol is always stopped so as to be in a tempered state. In step S950, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not N is 0. If it is 0, the main control unit 100 pseudo-stops the last reel at the missed position (non-straight line display of 7 symbols) in step S980 to produce a reel freeze effect. When finished, the display LED 4f during production is turned off. Then, the process proceeds to step S990 to execute normal processing, while if not 0, the process proceeds to step S960. That is, N = 0 means that it has already been displayed N times. However, the state in which the drum unit 2 is pseudo-stopped (temporarily stopped) may be a complete stop state. By lighting the display LED 4f during the production, it is clearly indicated to the player that the production is a freeze production using a reel. However, the stop button unit 10 is further operated, and the corresponding drum unit 2 is pseudo-stopped (temporarily stopped). In the case of making it, the reel freeze effect is recognized by stopping over 190 ms from the stop operation. In other words, instead of the normal five-frame control, the reel is frozen by sliding the reel more than six frames to appeal the reel freeze effect.

  The main control unit 100 pseudo-stops the blue 7 symbol or the red 7 symbol in step S960 and displays it in a straight line, and then rotates the reel upward to display a preparation mark. In step S970, the start lever 9 is operated or It is determined whether a predetermined time has passed (about 10 seconds), and the process loops until the condition is satisfied. If this start condition is satisfied, N-1 is calculated in step S975, and the calculation result is set as a new N to step S920. Transition.

  81 to 87 are schematic diagrams showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series. Group replay 1 to group replay 7 will be described in detail with reference to these drawings.

  Referring to FIG. 81, when group replay 1 (GRP1) is internally won, at least the upper blue 7 replay, the middle red 7 replay, the lower normal replay, and other replays are simultaneously won. In the state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 81A), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop with the player aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the right stop button 10c and the middle stop button 10b are operated in the second stop, the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol are both tempered (see FIG. 81 (B1) and FIG. 81 (C1)). I can't tell if will win. When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop, the upper blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 81 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, when the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop and the left stop button 10a at the second stop, aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 designs of each drum, both the blue 7 design and the red 7 design are tempered. (Refer to FIG. 81 (B2) and FIG. 81 (C2)). When the middle stop button 10b is operated in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay is won (see FIG. 81 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 82, when group replay 2 (GRP2) is internally won, at least upper right blue 7 replay, middle red 7 replay, lower normal replay and other replays are simultaneously won. When all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 82A), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop with the player aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the right stop button 10c and the left stop button 10a are operated in the second stop, the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol are both tempered (see FIG. 82 (B1) and FIG. 82 (C1)). I can't tell if will win. When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the third stop, the top right blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 82 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, if the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop and the middle stop button 10b at the second stop, aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 designs of each drum, both the blue 7 design and the red 7 design will be tempered. (Refer to FIG. 82 (B2) and FIG. 82 (C2)). When the left stop button 10a is operated in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay is won (see FIG. 82 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 83, when group replay 3 (GRP3) is internally won, at least the upper blue 7 replay, the middle red 7 replay, the lower normal replay, and other replays are simultaneously won. In the state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 83A), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop with the player aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the right stop button 10c and the left stop button 10a are operated in the second stop, only the blue 7 symbol is tempered (see FIG. 83 (B1) and FIG. 83 (C1)), and the player wins the upper blue 7 replay. Can be discriminated (2 accuracy: determined by the second operation). When the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the third stop, the upper blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 83 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, if the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop and the middle stop button 10b at the second stop, aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 designs of each drum, both the blue 7 design and the red 7 design will be tempered. (Refer to FIG. 83 (B2) and FIG. 83 (C2)). When the left stop button 10a is operated in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay is won (see FIG. 83 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 84, when group replay 4 (GRP4) is internally won, at least upper right blue 7 replay, middle red 7 replay, lower normal replay and other replays are simultaneously won. In the state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 84A), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop with the player aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the right stop button 10c and the middle stop button 10b are operated in the second stop, only the blue 7 symbol is tempered (see FIG. 84 (B1) and FIG. 84 (C1)), and the player wins the upper blue 7 replay. Can be discriminated (2 accuracy: determined by the second operation). When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop, the upper blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 84 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, when the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop and the left stop button 10a at the second stop, aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 designs of each drum, both the blue 7 design and the red 7 design are tempered. (See FIG. 84 (B2) and FIG. 84 (C2)). When the middle stop button 10b is operated in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay is won (see FIG. 84 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 85, when group replay 5 (GRP5) is internally won, at least upper blue 7 replay, middle red 7 replay, lower normal replay, and other replays are simultaneously won. In the state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 85A), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop with the player aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c are operated in the second stop, the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol are both tempered (see FIG. 85 (B1) and FIG. 85 (C1)). I can't tell if will win. When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop, the upper blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 85 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, if the player operates the left stop button 10a at the first stop and the right stop button 10c at the second stop aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 symbols of each drum, only the red 7 symbols are tempered (see FIG. 85 (B2) and FIG. 85 (C2)), the player can determine that the middle red 7 replay wins (2nd accuracy: confirmed by the second operation). When the player operates the right stop button 10c in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay wins (see FIG. 85 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 86, when group replay 6 (GRP6) is internally won, at least the upper blue 7 replay, the middle red 7 replay, the lower normal replay, and other replays are simultaneously won. In the state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 86 (A)), the main control unit 100 makes a first stop while aiming at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum. When the middle stop button 10b and the left stop button 10a are operated in the second stop, only the blue 7 symbol is tempered (see FIG. 86 (B1) and FIG. 86 (C1)), and the player wins the upper blue 7 replay. Can be discriminated (2 accuracy: determined by the second operation). When the player operates the right stop button 10c in the third stop, the upper blue 7 replay wins (see FIG. 86 (D1)). Since the winning line is a middle horizontal line, the actual winning pattern is naturally different. On the other hand, when the player operates the middle stop button 10b at the first stop and the right stop button 10c at the second stop, aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 symbols of each drum, both the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol are tempered. Therefore (see FIG. 86 (B2) and FIG. 86 (C2)), the player cannot determine which replay wins. When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop, the middle red 7 replay wins (see FIG. 86 (D2)).

  Referring to FIG. 87, when group replay 7 (GRP7) is internally won, at least upper right blue 7 replay, lower normal replay and other replays are simultaneously won. The main control unit 100 is in a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 87A), and the player aims at the blue 7 symbol and the red 7 symbol of each drum at the first stop. When the middle stop button 10b is operated, the blue 7 symbol is stopped at the middle level and the red 7 symbol is stopped at the lower level (FIG. 87 (B)). Confirm with one operation). When the player operates the right stop button 10c in the second stop aiming at the blue 7 and red 7 designs of each drum (see FIG. 87 (C1)) or the left stop button 10a (see FIG. 87 (C2)). )), When only the blue 7 symbol is tempered, and the player performs the third stop operation, the blue 7 replay at the upper right is won (see FIG. 87 (D1) and FIG. 87 (D2)). In the other operation order, the lower normal replay or one of the other plural replays always wins.

FIGS. 81 to 87 are schematic diagrams showing the symbol display states of the liquid crystal display portion in time series, like the reels. Group replay 1 to group replay 7 will be described in detail with reference to these drawings.
The first symbol display game for rotating a plurality of reels with a plurality of types of symbols on the outer periphery is started, and the stop switch provided corresponding to each reel is determined by the push order combination determined by the lottery In a gaming machine in which a winning is generated according to a display result of a symbol derived when all the reels are stopped in a gaming machine that is operated in an operation order corresponding to A second display device (liquid crystal display unit) for displaying a second symbol display game different from the one symbol display game; and a control means (sub-control unit) for controlling the second symbol display game. The means starts the second symbol display game when all the reels stop and the symbol display result is derived, displays a plurality of variable symbols on the liquid crystal display unit, and each of the stop switches Is manipulated, Individually stopping view some number of variations symbols. Alternatively, when each stop switch is operated, all the plurality of variation symbols are stopped and displayed. The main control unit performs a process (freeze process) that delays the progress of the reel game during the second symbol display game to prevent normal operations (bet operation, start operation, stop button operation). Since an operation signal is transmitted to the control unit, the sub-control unit performs a stop effect of the corresponding symbol on the liquid crystal screen for each operation, displays a specific symbol on the liquid crystal, the number of additional games, the number of additional navigations, The added payout number and the like are displayed to make the subsequent game advantageous to the player.

  88 to 89 are schematic diagrams of special addition screens.

  The sub-control unit 160 displays the initial assist quantity and the acquired number (0 at the start) at the bottom left of the screen at the start of the AT bonus in step S538 shown in FIG. Update earned number. The assist quantity is the number of games, the number of navigations, the number of payouts, etc., and is a numerical value for activating the assist function. For example, if the assist quantity is the number of games, the assist quantity is decremented by 1 when one game is consumed. If the assist quantity is the number of times of navigation, the assist quantity does not change even if one game is consumed, and the assist quantity is decremented by 1 when the operation order for winning the push order small combination is notified. If the assist quantity is the number of payouts, the assist quantity does not change even if one game is consumed, and when the operation order for winning the push order small role is notified, the number of the original payout is subtracted from the assist quantity (that is, Even if the player pushes the wrong order, it is treated as winning and paying out.

  The sub-control unit 160 executes the special extra game a plurality of times in step S740 shown in FIG. 78, or executes the special extra game once in step S760. When the sub-control unit 160 performs N extra special games a plurality of times when the 7 blue symbols are aligned, the remaining assist quantity (assuming 25 games in this case) and the acquired number (or net increase number) before starting. In this case, 353 images are assumed to be displayed at the lower left of the screen, and the special time and the faces of the enemy character 1 to enemy character N are displayed on the right (N is the same number, abbreviated as numbers 1 to 3 in the figure). (See FIG. 88 (A)). In this state, when the predetermined number of medals is inserted by operating the max bet button 8 and the start lever 9 is operated effectively, the sub-control unit 160 subtracts 1 from the remaining assist quantity and displays 24. Then, 3 is subtracted from the acquired number and changed to 350 (see FIG. 88B). Then, according to the operation timing of the start lever 9, a lottery drawing is performed, and a variable display game for rotating the reel drum is started. When the winning combination is won internally by the role lottery, the operation order of the stop switch for winning the winning combination is displayed on the display screen, but is omitted in the figure. Since the additional loop rate is determined based on the result lottery result, the operation of the start lever 9 is the moment when the player has a lot of power. It is assumed that a strong bell role (a push-in any order bell role) that pays out 15 sheets is won internally. That is, the sub-control unit 160 determines the extra loop rate and the extra table based on the combination lottery result in the latest variable display game in which the special extra lottery (continuous hitting game) is performed.

  If the sub-control unit 160 satisfies the start condition of the special extra game (continuous hit game), the sub-control unit 160 validates the operation of the special button 14 (press switch) and determines whether or not to continue the special extra game based on the operated timing. The continuous lottery (or the falling lottery to decide whether or not to cancel) is added and executed every time the loop is pressed. In addition, an additional lottery for the assist quantity to be added is executed using the extra table. On the other hand, when the max bet button 8 is operated, the number of additional games is determined based on the loop rate and the expected cancellation value. In the case of cancellation, the same processing as when the special button 14 is pressed may be automatically performed. When the special addition game is finished, the sub-control unit 160 displays the total number of AT games obtained by the game number lottery on the display effect device 11, and when returning to the AT game, the special addition is added to the number of remaining AT games. The total number of AT games obtained by adding the total number of AT games acquired in the game is set as the new number of AT games. Then, when the push order small combination is won for the number of new AT games, the operation order of the stop button unit 10 is notified.

  Specifically, referring to FIG. 88, when the sub-control unit 160 receives a command indicating that the game has ended and a payout number command from the main control unit 100 when all reels are stopped by operating the stop switch, The acquired number is changed to 365, the special button 14 can be operated, and “hit the special button” or “special button continuous hit” is displayed on the display effect device 11 (see FIG. 88C). After that, the player repeatedly hits the special button 14 nine times, and the number of additional games is 3, the first 3rd, the third 10th, the fourth 5th, the fifth 5th, the first 6th 1,7 It is shown that the 50th in the 1st, 1 in the 8th, 1 in the 9th, and a total of 73 wins. That is, the added quantity from the first time to the ninth time is accumulated and counted, and the counted value is displayed. FIG. 88C shows a state where the next pressing operation (the tenth pressing operation) is not performed, and the operation of the special button 14 (pressing switch) is valid.

  Referring to FIG. 89, the sub-control unit 160 repeatedly presses the special button 14 in the state of FIG. 88 (C), and when it finishes out of the continuous lottery, it displays the total number of additional games counted cumulatively (FIG. 89 (A)). When the maximum bet button 8 (insertion switch or insertion means) is operated, the number of final added games is determined and the special added game (continuous hit game) is ended. At this time, the sub-control unit 160 once displays the acquired additional game number “plus 150” on the display screen of the display effect device 11, and adds a new additional assist quantity ( 174 is displayed as the total remaining assist quantity) (see FIG. 89A). In this state, when three predetermined medals are inserted by operating the max bet button 8, the sub-control unit 160 subtracts three from the acquired number and changes it to 362 (see FIG. 88B). Then, when the start lever 9 is operated effectively and the 15-payout push order bell wins, the sub-control unit 160 displays 173 by subtracting 1 from the remaining assist quantity, and adds 15 to the obtained number. Change to 377. Thereafter, the second special extra game is executed in the same manner, and it is pressed nine times to indicate that the extra assist quantity is currently 32 (see FIG. 89 (B)). In this way, the sub control unit 160 repeats the special addition game N times at the end of the symbol display game (main game).

  In other words, the main control unit 100 starts a symbol display game that rotates three or more drum units 2 having 20 to 21 symbols arranged on the outer periphery, and draws at least a plurality of small roles and replay roles. (You may be unfair in the role lottery.) When the stop button section 10 provided corresponding to the drum section 2 is operated, the corresponding reel drum is stopped, and a prize is generated according to the display result of the symbols derived when all the reel drums are stopped. To do. It can also lead to a loss. The main control unit 100 may control the sub control unit 160.

  There are multiple types of push order small roles in the small role, and there are multiple types of push order replay roles in the replay role, and the sub-control unit 160 will determine the push order role if there is at least an assist quantity in the assist game. The operation order of the stop button unit 10 according to (push order small combination or push order replay combination) is notified. When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the operation order, the main control unit 100 wins the pressing order. Each time the sub-control unit 160 digests the symbol display game, every time it navigates, or every time it wins a push order small combination, it reduces the assist quantity when the subtraction condition is satisfied.

  The sub-control unit 160 enables the operation of an operation switch (such as the special button 14 or the max bet button 8) for performing a special extra game (continuous hitting game) when the special extra condition is established during the assist game. The sub-control unit 160 determines the additional assistance quantity for each operation of the operation switch in the special addition game, accumulates and counts the determined additional assistance quantity, and finishes the special addition game at the same operation timing. Decide whether or not. When the special extra game is finished, the sub-control unit 160 adds the assist quantity that is present (remaining) at the start of the special extra game and the extra assist quantity to obtain a new assist quantity, and the determined special extra multiple times. Run the game repeatedly. When the sub-control unit 160 finishes the special addition game a plurality of times, the assist game is advanced to reduce the assist quantity, and if there is at least a new assist quantity, a stop switch corresponding to the push order The operation order is notified.

  FIG. 90 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and shows that the first 1st is the correct operation procedure (winning order). The difference from FIG. 62 is that the role name is changed to a push order bell of a generic name (also referred to as “generic information” or “group name”), and a new push order name is added. Similarly, FIG. 91 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and the right 1st indicates that it is a correct operation procedure (winning order). The difference from FIG. 63 is the same as FIG. In addition, since there are many parts in common with the content demonstrated in FIG.62 and FIG.63, description overlaps with the overlapping content.

  There are eight types of push order bells, push order bell 1a to push order bell 4b, and their generic name is push order bell (see FIGS. 90 and 91). That is, when starting the symbol display game, the main control unit 100 selects one of a plurality of roles (for example, strong cherry, weak cherry, chance eye, strong watermelon, weak watermelon, push order unquestioned bell, etc.) by symbol lottery. One combination (flag) is determined. Among the plurality of combinations, eight types (plural types) of push order bells 1a to 4b exist. The push order bell 1a shown in FIG. 90 is a push order name (also referred to as “push order name information”), and the role name is the push order bell. When the push order bell 1a is determined, a total of four types of small combinations of FR1 (specific small combination) having nine payouts and FR2 to FR4 having one payout number are simultaneously ready for winning.

  When the start lever 9 is operated in the symbol display game, the main control unit 100 performs a random number lottery, and when one of the eight types of push order bells is determined, if the notification condition is not satisfied, First combination information (title name) indicating that the determined combination is a push order small combination is transmitted. That is, the main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 that the winning combination is a push order bell even if any one of the push order bells wins during a non-assist state normal game. However, information for recognizing (or determining, identifying, understanding, grasping, determining, specifying) the operation order for winning FR1 (specific small role) is not transmitted. For example, if the main control unit 100 transmits information indicating the push order bell 2a or push order bell 2b, which is the push order name in FIG. 90, to the sub control unit 160, the sub control unit 160 stores the push order identification table stored in the ROM 161. With reference to (corresponding data between the push order name and the winning order of the specific small role, for example, the correspondence data between the push order name and the correct operation order shown in FIG. 90 is stored in the ROM 161), the push order bell 2a or Recognizing that the middle → right → left is the FR1 winning operation order stored in correspondence with the push order bell 2b, but in the non-assist state, the push order name push order bell 2a is not transmitted, and the push order of the role names Send only the bell. However, in general, it is in a non-assist state during a normal game, but the notification condition (or the push order of the push order) is performed when the push order bell role (for example, the push order bell 2a) is elected internally and the mission during the normal game is activated. If the notification condition) is satisfied, the push order bell 2a of the push order name may be transmitted.

  On the other hand, when any one of the push order bell roles is won during the special game in the assist state, the main control unit 100 pushes the push order name 2a (the determined role is pushed) to the sub control unit 160. Information for recognizing winning order, which is a small role). When receiving the push order bell 2a (second combination information), the sub control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the operation sequence of the stop switch corresponding to the recognized winning order. When the stop switch is operated in the winning order of the winning order bell combination (for example, the operation order of the middle right and left of the pressing order bell 2a), the main control unit 100 always wins the specific small combination. On the other hand, if the stop switch is not operated in the winning order, one of the other three small roles will be won or missed. Decrease. Information indicating that the determined combination is a push order small combination is information necessary for the sub-control unit 160 to display the effect image on the display effect device 11 regardless of the assist state.

  That is, the main control unit 100 transmits the push order name to the sub-control unit 160 when the two conditions that the push order is determined and the notification condition is satisfied are satisfied. When receiving the push order name, the sub-control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display a navigation image (see FIG. 92) based on the middle right / left operation order recognized from the push order name. On the other hand, even if the sub-control unit 160 receives the role name, the role name does not include information for recognizing the winning order, and therefore cannot display the navigation image. As a result, even if the sub-control unit that controls the display of the navigation image is tampered with, the operation order of the push order cannot be displayed, so that it is possible to avoid an illegal winning.

  93 and 94 are flowcharts showing the combination information transmission processing procedure. The difference between FIG. 93 and FIG. 94 is only that the processing of step S1010 and step S1015 is reversed, but the present invention is a technical idea including both cases.

  The main control unit 100 decides whether or not to activate the assist function, and performs a role information transmission process during the game main process of step S170 shown in FIG.

  In step S1000, the main control unit 100 determines a combination by random number lottery, and proceeds to step S1010. The main control unit 100 determines whether the combination is one of eight types of push order bell combinations and the notification condition is satisfied (see Step S1010 and Step S1015). If these two conditions are satisfied, the main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 of the push order name (second combination information) in step S1020. If not, the main control unit 100 determines the role name (second combination information) in step S1030. 1st hand information) is notified to the sub-control unit 160. Upon receiving the push order name, the sub control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the stop switch operation order corresponding to the recognized winning order.

  When the stop button unit 10 is operated in step S1040, the main control unit 100 stops the corresponding drum unit 2, and in step S1050, all the reel drums (the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c) are stopped. When this is done, the winning combination determination of the combination according to the symbol display result derived in step S1060 is performed, and the medal payout process corresponding to the small combination won in step S1070 is executed. Note that the main control unit 100 always wins the specific small combination when the stop switch is operated in the winning order of the winning combination of the push order bells (for example, the operation order of the middle right and left of the push order bell 2a).

  FIG. 95 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and shows that the first 1st is the correct operation procedure (winning order). The difference from FIG. 90 is that the push order name is deleted. Similarly, FIG. 96 is a configuration diagram of the push order small combination, and the right 1st shows the correct operation procedure. The difference from FIG. 91 is the same as FIG. In addition, since there are many parts in common with the content demonstrated in FIG. 62, FIG. 63, FIG. 90 and FIG. 91, the overlapping content uses description.

  When the start lever 9 is operated in the symbol display game, the main control unit 100 performs a random number lottery, and when one of the eight types of push order bells is determined, if the notification condition is not satisfied, First combination information (title name) indicating that the determined combination is a push order small combination is transmitted. That is, the main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 that the winning combination is a push order bell even if any one of the push order bells wins during a non-assist state normal game. However, the order information for recognizing (or determining, identifying, understanding, grasping, determining, specifying) the operation order for winning FR1 (specific small role) is not transmitted.

  On the other hand, when any one of the push-order bells is won during the special game in the assist state, the main control unit 100 causes the sub-control unit 160 to win the win-bell role and the FR1 (specific small The second combination information to which the order information for recognizing the operation sequence for winning the combination is notified. Upon receiving the push order bell combination and order information (second combination information), the sub-control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the operation sequence of the stop switch corresponding to the recognized winning order (see FIG. 92). . When the stop switch is operated in the winning order of the winning order bell combination (for example, the operation order of the middle right and left of the pressing order bell 2a), the main control unit 100 always wins the specific small combination. However, if the stop switch is not operated in the winning order, one of the other three small roles will be won or missed. Decrease. Information indicating that the determined combination is a push order small combination is information necessary for the sub-control unit 160 to display the effect image on the display effect device 11 regardless of the assist state. Since the sub control unit 160 receives the order information corresponding to the push order bell combination from the main control unit 100, there is a specific effect that it is not necessary to store the push order data in the ROM 161.

  FIG. 97 is a flowchart showing a combination information transmission processing procedure.

  The main control unit 100 decides whether or not to activate the assist function, and performs a role information transmission process during the game main process of step S170 shown in FIG.

  In step S1200, the main control unit 100 determines a combination by random number lottery, and proceeds to step S1210. The main control unit 100 determines whether the combination is one of eight types of push order bell combinations and the notification condition is satisfied (see step S1210 and step S1215). If these two conditions are satisfied, the main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 of the push name bell order information and the order information (second hand information) in step S1220. In step S1230, the sub-control unit 160 is notified of the pressing order bell information (first combination information) of the combination names. Upon receiving the push order bell information and the order information, the sub-control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the operation sequence of the stop switch corresponding to the winning order recognized based on the order information.

  When the stop button unit 10 is operated in step S1240, the main control unit 100 stops the corresponding drum unit 2, and in step S1250, all reel drums (the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c) are stopped. When this is done, the winning combination determination of the winning combination is performed according to the display result of the symbol derived in step S1260, and the medal payout process is executed according to the small winning combination won in step S1270. Note that the main control unit 100 always wins the specific small combination when the stop switch is operated in the winning order of the winning combination of the push order bells (for example, the operation order of the middle right and left of the push order bell 2a).

  FIG. 106 is a conceptual diagram showing a game state transition diagram.

  FIG. 106A shows the internal state of a so-called zero-both type gaming machine that is currently mainstream, and is controlled by the main control unit 100. In the general game, the prescribed number is 3, the winning probability of replay is about 1 / 7.3, and 2 kinds of BBs are also drawn. Two types of BBs are won by themselves and can be won only at the time of winning. When 2 types BB wins, it becomes a bonus game in which 2 types BB operates, and since the specified number is 2 and 2 small roles always win, there is no increase or decrease during that time. If the 2nd class BB is not won in the game won by itself, the next game will be the 2nd class BB internal game, and the winning probability of replay will be about 3/5 (about 60%). Even if the step set value is re-entered, the gaming state is maintained. That is, if the game is always performed in the state where the two types of BBs are internally won, and the push order notifies the operation sequence at the time of winning, the net increase number becomes 3 pieces / game. Therefore, the number of game medals decreases, and if there are 50 hand-held medals, about 30 games can be executed. As a rare small role, a cherry role, a watermelon role, a chance eye, a strong bell, etc. are won, and if a predetermined condition is satisfied, a notification game is activated, which is advantageous to the player.

  FIG. 106 (B) shows a gaming state controlled by the sub-control unit 160, and the symbol display game is mainly executed in either a normal game or an AT game (specific game). 100 may be controlled. In the base game, basically, the operation order for winning the push order small combination is not notified, but in the acquired gaming state 1, the operation order for winning the special replay combination 1 and special replay combination 2 is notified. There is. In the AT game, when the push order small combination is won internally, the operation order corresponding to the push order small combination is notified, and the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c are operated in the winning operation order. , The target small part (purpose small part) constituting the push order small part wins.

  On the other hand, when the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c are operated in different operation orders, either the inhibition small combination 1 or the inhibition small combination 2 constituting the push order small combination is awarded. Or overflow. Therefore, since the AT game is notified of the operation order of the push order small combination, it is more advantageous for the player than the normal game. The inhibition small combination 1 is a small combination (one payout) that is drawn when the 1st operation is not in the winning pressing order (in the case of incorrect answer), and wins or is lost depending on the operation timing. Inhibiting small role 2 is a small role (1 payout) that is drawn when the 1st operation is in the winning push order (correct answer) and the 2nd operation is not in the winning push order (incorrect answer), so that it always wins. However, it can be missed depending on the operation timing.

In the normal game, when a predetermined number of games (for example, 32 games) is consumed in the normal game state, the normal game state is ended and the determination game state 1a is entered. That is, the number of remaining games is reduced to 31, 30, 29... Per game, and when reaching 0, the game moves to the determination gaming state 1a.
The sub-control unit 160 uses the first item and the second item (even in the same item) by the rare role won internally during the normal game of 32 games, or the special replay role 1, the special replay role 2, and the single small role that were won. A plurality of types of items having different colors and shapes are acquired and stored in the RAM 162. Further, the sub-control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the first item (military item) and the second item (gavel item) individually (for example, display five military items and eight gavel items). ).

  The sub-control unit 160 increases the number of games based on the first item stored in the RAM 162 (for example, since there are five first items, 5 is added to 8 games and the number is increased to 13 games). This means that the number of games for defeating 100 enemies of HP has increased, which will work for the player. The sub-control unit 160 executes the symbol display game in the determined gaming state 1a based on the increased number of games, and the HP is updated based on the second item for each game in the determined gaming state 1a (for example, HP Defeat 20 out of 100 enemies to make 80 remaining HP enemies). Further, in addition to the second item, the HP is updated based on the result of lottery (particularly, a large number of enemies can be defeated by a rare small role) (for example, 20 out of 80 HP enemies). Defeat the person with the second item, defeat 55 persons with a single cherry, and leave the remaining HP with 5 enemies). The sub-control unit 160 is triggered by the fact that the updated number of enemies satisfies 0 (predetermined condition) until the increased number of games becomes 0 and the symbol display game in the determined gaming state 1a is finished. As described above, the game is shifted to the AT game in the specific game state via the quantity determination game state 1. However, the initial number of games may be determined in advance, for example, 50 games, 200, etc., without going through the quantity determination game state 1. On the other hand, when the increased number of games becomes 0 and the symbol display game in the determined gaming state 1a is finished, the sub-control unit 160 does not satisfy the updated HP enemy count of 0 (predetermined condition). In such a case, the game state returns to the normal game state, and when the predetermined number of games (for example, 32 games) is consumed, the determination game state 1a is entered again.

  For example, the quantity determination gaming state 1 uses the same processing subroutine as that for the special addition zone D as described with reference to FIGS. 78, 79, and 80. Specifically, in the special extra zone D, the special button 14 is repeatedly hit, and a continuous lottery (puncture lottery or falling lottery) and an extra lottery are performed for each operation, and the continuous lottery is excluded (puncture lottery or The winning lottery is won) and the sum of the values won in the extra lottery is used as an additional number for activating the assist function, and the minimum guaranteed number of 30 games is added to the added number and displayed on the display effect device 11. Store in RAM.

  The acquired gaming state 1 is a specialized zone for acquiring the first item and the second item. When the rare role is elected in the normal gaming state, the transition lottery makes the determination gaming state 1b when the winning is achieved, and the battle is won to shift to the AT game in the specific gaming state, while in the defeat, it returns to the original normal gaming state and remains. When the number of games is digested, the determination game state 1a is performed.

  In the AT game, first, a predetermined number of games N2 is determined by lottery (for example, 30 to 35 games). When a predetermined number of games N2 (for example, 30 games) is digested in the specific game state, the specific game state is ended and the process shifts to the determination game state 2a. That is, the number of remaining games decreases as each game is consumed, 29, 28, 27..., And when it reaches 0, it shifts to the determination gaming state 2a. The sub-control unit 160 uses the rare role won internally during the AT game of 30 games, or the special replay role 1 won, the special replay role 2 and the single small role, etc. Two items (a plurality of types of items having different colors and shapes even for the same item) are acquired and stored in the RAM 162. Further, the sub-control unit 160 causes the display effect device 11 to display the first item (military item) and the second item (gavel item) individually (for example, display five military items and eight gavel items). ).

  The sub-control unit 160 increases the HP of the protagonist (friend character) based on the first item stored in the RAM 162 (for example, since there are five first items, add 5 points to the initial HP 10 points to 13 points) To increase). This means that the HP of the protagonist has increased, which will work for the player. The sub-control unit 160 executes the symbol display game in the determined gaming state 2a, and determines whether to reduce (update) the HP of the enemy military commander or to reduce (update) the HP of the hero military commander based on the lottery result of the combination decide. Specifically, if it is an attacking role such as a rare role, a single role, or a push order role, the enemy warlord's HP has been reduced and the enemy warrior's HP has satisfied 0 (predetermined condition or victory condition) Triggered by this, it becomes a victory and shifts to the quantity determination gaming state 2. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 reduces the HP of the hero warlord if it is a defense role such as a replay role, and becomes defeated when the HP of the hero warrior satisfies 0 (predetermined condition or defeat condition). Returning to the specific gaming state and digesting a new predetermined number of games (for example, 40 games), the determination gaming state 2a is entered again. In particular, the next game in which the main character warlord's HP is reduced and the remaining HP is below a predetermined number (for example, the remaining 5 points) is devised. If at least one second item is stored in the RAM 162, the sub-control unit 160 sets the next game as an attack-only game. Specifically, if the lottery result of the combination in the next game is a defense combination such as a replay combination, all the second items stored are attacked together to reduce the HP of the enemy warlord. Also, if the result of lottery in the next game is an attacking role such as a rare role, attack by adding all the second items and attacking features that are stored together to reduce the enemy warrior's HP . As a result, a trumping attack called the final attack can be performed, and the player feels excitement and excitement. As a matter of course, if no second item is stored in the RAM 162, if the lottery result of the winning combination in the next game is a defensive role, the game will be defeated when HP is reduced to 0.

  The quantity determination gaming state 2 uses a processing subroutine similar to that for the special extra zone D as described with reference to FIGS. 78, 79 and 80, for example. Specifically, in the special extra zone D, the special button 14 is repeatedly hit, and a continuous lottery (puncture lottery or falling lottery) and an extra lottery are performed for each operation, and the continuous lottery is excluded (puncture lottery or The winning lottery is won) and the sum of the values won in the extra lottery is used as an additional number for activating the assist function, and this additional number is added to the remaining number and stored in the display effect device 11 and in the RAM. To do.

  The acquired gaming state 2 is a specialized zone for acquiring the first item and the second item. In the specified gaming state, when the rare role is elected, the transition lottery determines that the winning gaming state 2b is reached, and the battle wins the transition to the quantity determining gaming state 2, while the defeat returns to the original specified gaming state, and the remaining When the number of games is digested, the determination game state 2a is performed. However, in the determination game state 2a, the game is defeated, and the predetermined number of games N2 is initially determined by lottery (however, it may be a fixed number of 40 games), but 40 games are determined as the predetermined number of games N2, and the rest If the number of AT games is 20, the player cannot digest 40 games, so the determined gaming state 2a cannot be performed, and is discouraged at that time (the difference is 20 games). In order to solve this problem, if the number of remaining AT games does not reach the predetermined number of games N2, if a rare small role is won, processing is performed so that it is always added by lottery. For example, since 5 or more games to be won by the rare small role are determined, the number of difference games is reduced (if the difference is 20 games and 5 games are won, the number of difference games is 15 games).

  As a further contrivance, when the number of remaining AT games becomes 0 in a specific gaming state, a resurrection game transition lottery is performed. This resurrection game transfer lottery is easier to win as the difference game number is closer to zero. Specifically, there is a difference game number table, 80% if 1-3 games, 60% if 4-10 games, 40% if 11-20 games, 20% probability if 21 games or more It has come to win. When the revival game transition lottery is won, the game shifts to the revival game state. On the other hand, when the game is lost (unauthorized), the specific game state ends and the game state shifts to the normal game state. In the resurrection game state, for example, as described with reference to FIGS. 78, 79, and 80, a processing subroutine similar to that for the special addition zone D is used. Specifically, the number of times of clearing is determined in advance by lottery, the special button 14 is repeatedly hit, and the continuous lottery is won every time an operation is performed (or unfairly selected for the falling lottery). If you hit the special button 14 only 95 times (20 times), you will be revived. On the other hand, if the continuous lottery is not properly won (or the falling lottery is won) before hitting the number of times of clearing, it will fall (failure), the AT game will be terminated, and the normal game state of the normal game will be entered.

  FIG. 98 is a front view of the sand device.

  The sand apparatus 300 is generally installed one-to-one on either the right side or the left side of the gaming machine main body 1 (rotating type gaming machine main body 1) so that bidirectional communication with the credit control unit 165 is possible. Connected with a wire harness. Similar to the main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160, the credit control unit 165 is an integrated one-chip microcomputer equipped with a microprocessor having a built-in CPU. Credit information and player-specific information (address, name, age, password, phone number, etc.) are managed.

  Reference numeral 310 denotes a bill insertion part, which can insert only 1000 yen bills, 5000 yen bills, and 10,000 yen bills at present. For example, when 10,000 yen of cash is inserted, the data display unit 320 displays 100 as the corresponding frequency. Reference numeral 330 denotes an operation unit that performs a switching operation between a mode in which cash is used or a mode in which cards inserted in the card insertion unit 340 are used. Further, the operation unit 330 includes a 10 key 331 for inputting a personal identification number when a membership card is inserted. This membership card stores stored credit information (stored medal information) and player management information as stored cash information and game value information that have not been used in the game. If the membership card is inserted into the checkout device, the cash corresponding to the stored cash information can be settled. Moreover, not only can it be exchanged for a prize corresponding to the stored credit information, but it can also be reused as a stored medal to play a pachislot game. Naturally, the pachinko game can also be performed by recording the stored ball information.

  FIG. 99 is a flowchart showing the settlement processing procedure.

  When the settlement button 6 is operated while the game is on standby (see Steps S130 to S160 shown in FIG. 22), the main control unit 100 calls this subroutine and confirms the game mode in Step S1300. The game mode is set to either the normal game mode using the current game medal or the credit mode using the sand device 300 by operating the game mode selection switch in advance on the hall side. The main control unit 100 checks the game mode selection switch when the power is turned on, and determines whether or not to set the game mode flag. For example, the game mode flag is 0 for the normal game mode, and the game mode flag is 1 for the credit mode. The main control unit 100 checks the game mode flag in step S1310. If it is 0, the main control unit 100 determines that it is the normal game mode and 1 if it is a credit mode.

  The main control unit 100 performs a credit settlement process in step S1320 if the credit mode is selected, and performs a game medium payout process in step S1330 if the normal game mode is selected. The credit settlement process is to transmit a settlement process command and currently inserted credit information (the number of medals, the number of pachinko balls, etc.) to the credit control unit 165. In the game medium payout process, the main control unit 100 itself calculates the total of the inserted number (the number displayed by the inserted number LED 4a) and the medal stored number (the number displayed by the medal stored number display LED 4b) as a medal payout device 18 ( This is a process of paying out from the medal hopper 18). However, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the replay combination has won in step S1340. If the replay combination has won, the main control unit 100 cannot pay out the inserted number displayed by the inserted number LED 4a. Therefore, only the number of stored medals is paid out, and a warning notification command is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160 in step S1350. When the sub-control unit 160 receives the payout warning notification command at the time of winning the replay role, the sub-control unit 160 displays a warning message “Replay has won. Please play the game” on the display effect device 11 and the speaker unit. 12 utters a warning sound or a warning comment with the same meaning of “Replay has won. Please play the game.” And this subroutine is terminated. When the start lever 9 is operated in a state where the sub control unit 160 displays a warning on the display effect device 11 and a warning sound is output from the speaker unit 12, the main control unit 100 receives a start operation, A warning end command is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160, and the re-game is executed. When receiving the warning end command, the sub-control unit 160 ends the warning display and utterance.

  When the credit control unit 165 receives the settlement processing command and the currently inserted credit information (data of 0 to 3), the credit control unit 165 adds up the stored credits (0 to 99 data) displayed by the stored credit display unit. For example, if the credit information is 3 and the stored credit is 35, the total value is 38. The credit control unit 165 transmits the return command and the credit sum value to the sand device 300.

  When the sand device 300 receives game value data corresponding to a total of 35 credits from the credit control unit 165, the sand device 300 stores the balance information of the inserted cash and the game value data on an information recording medium such as a built-in member card or visitor. Addition recording is performed, and the card is inserted from the card insertion unit 340 to the outside of the sand device. For example, if the cash balance displayed by the sand device 300 is 8000 yen, the cash balance of the membership card is 3000 yen and 1210 stored medals (credits) are recorded, the new cash balance is 11000 yen, The accumulated medals are recorded as 1248 and are discharged out of the sand device.

  FIG. 100 is a block diagram of the control circuit system of the spinning cylinder game machine.

  The difference from FIG. 5 is that only the credit of electronic data is used for the pachislot game, and no game medal (or game medium such as a pachinko ball) is used, so the medal detection sensor 130 and the medal payout device 18 are eliminated. It is a point. In addition, the medal sorting device, the medal slot 5, the tray 15, the medal passage, and the like are not required as mechanical components. Therefore, the game mode selection switch described in FIG. 99 is not provided. In addition, instead of the elimination of the settlement button 190, a return button described later is provided. When the return button is operated, a return signal (return pulse) is input from the credit control unit 165 to the main control unit 100. The credit display unit corresponds to the medal stored number display LED 4b, and the credit control unit 165 performs display control.

  FIG. 101 is a schematic diagram of a display unit and an operation unit.

  101A shows a cash frequency display unit 321 and a credit frequency display unit 322 included in the data display unit 320 of the sand device 300, and a return button 332, a switching button 333, and a payout button 334 included in the operation unit 330. Show. The cash level display unit 321 includes three 7-segment displays and the credit level display unit 322 includes five. When a 10,000 yen bill is inserted into the bill insertion unit 310 of FIG. 98, the cash frequency display unit 321 displays 100. That is, one frequency corresponds to 100 yen. When the return button 332 included in the operation unit 330 is operated in this state, a visitor card in which 100 degrees is recorded as the balance information is returned from the card insertion unit 340. When this visitor card is inserted again into the card insertion section 340, the same state is achieved and a 100-degree game is possible. As shown in FIG. 101 (D), in the 7-segment display, the blacked-out state means that the light is on and the white area means that the light is off.

  When the membership card is inserted into the card insertion unit 340, it is required to enter a 4-digit password. 321 is displayed. When the switching button 333 is operated once in this state, the remaining credit information recorded on the member card is displayed on the credit level display unit 322. When the operation of the switch button 332 is repeated again, the display of the remaining credit information is switched alternately with the remaining amount information for each operation. For example, assuming that the balance information recorded on the membership card is 6000 yen, a 1000-yen bill can be inserted into the bill insertion unit 310 and the balance information is updated to 7000 yen. On the other hand, when the balance information is 6000 yen, 5000 yen bills and 10,000 yen bills cannot be additionally inserted. The reason is that the upper limit of 10,000 yen (predetermined amount) is the balance information that can be recorded on the membership card, and the total amount exceeds the predetermined amount. Similarly, if you insert 10,000 yen into the bill insertion section 310 and the balance is 6000 yen, you can insert a membership card whose recorded balance information is 4000 yen or less, but a membership card whose balance information exceeds 4000 yen Cannot be inserted.

  That is, when the sand device 300 is inserted with the membership card and the cash is inserted into the bill insertion unit 310, the type of bill (any one of 1000 yen bill, 5000 yen bill, or 10,000 yen bill). Recognize If the total of the balance information recorded on the membership card and the recognized cash is 10,000 yen (predetermined amount) or less, cash is accepted and the total amount is displayed on the cash frequency display unit 321, but cash is accepted If not, the cash is discharged from the bill insertion unit 310. On the contrary, when the membership card is inserted into the card insertion unit 340 in a state where cash is contained, the sand device 300 recognizes the balance information recorded on the membership card. If the sum of the cash balance and the balance information of the recognized member card is 10,000 yen (predetermined amount) or less, the member card is accepted and the total amount is displayed on the cash frequency display unit 321, but the member card is not accepted. In that case, the cash is discharged from the card insertion unit 340.

  FIG. 101B is a schematic diagram of the credit display unit.

  Reference numeral 169 denotes a credit display unit, which corresponds to the conventional medal storage number display LED 4 b and is arranged in the display LED block 4. Similar to the credit frequency display unit 322 of the sand device 300, it is composed of five 7-segment displays and can display the credit frequency from 0 to 99999. However, since the credit frequency is memorized even if it exceeds that, it is possible to play a game or exchange it for a prize. The card balance display unit 50 is composed of three 7-segment displays, and is provided at the place where the medal insertion unit 5 was disposed. Similarly to the cash frequency display unit 321, the card balance display unit displays the inserted cash as balance information (100 yen is a frequency). For example, when a 10,000-yen bill is inserted into the bill insertion unit 310 (see FIG. 98), the card balance display unit 50 displays 100, and when the lending button 51 is operated, 90 is displayed by subtracting 10 degrees corresponding to 1000 yen. The credit frequency display unit 322 displays 50. That is, one credit corresponds to 0.2 degrees and cash 20 yen. When a return button 52 (corresponding to the conventional checkout button 6) is operated here, a visitor card in which a cash balance 90 degrees (cash information 9000 yen) and a credit balance (stored credit) 50 are recorded is returned from the card insertion unit 340. The Even if the return button 332 is operated, a visitor card in which similar information is recorded is returned.

  102 to 105 are schematic views of the display unit.

  When the player inserts the member card into the card insertion unit 340 of the sand device 300, the four-digit password is required to be entered. The balance information is displayed on the cash frequency display unit 321 (see FIG. 102A). It is assumed that 8000 yen is recorded as the balance information and 12345 (corresponding to the current 12345 medals) is recorded as the remaining credit information on the membership card.

  The sand device 300 reads the balance information and displays 80 on the cash level display unit 321, while displaying ----- (5 bars) on the credit level display unit 322, and cash mode command and balance information. Send. When the credit control unit 165 receives the cash mode command and the balance information from the sand device 300, the credit control unit 165 recognizes the number of 80 degrees and displays 80 on the card balance display unit 50. When the player operates the payout button 334 in this state, the sand device 300 transmits a payout command to the credit control unit 165. Authentication is performed by mutual communication (confirmation of normality or no abnormality), the sand device 300 displays 70 on the cash frequency display unit 321, and the credit control unit 165 displays the credit frequency 50 and the card on the credit display unit 169. The balance display unit 50 displays the cash count 70 (see FIG. 102B). Similarly, when the player operates the lending button 51 in the state of FIG. 102A, the credit control unit 165 transmits a lending command to the sand device 300. And it authenticates by mutual communication and performs the same display as FIG.

  When the player operates the switching button 333 in the state of FIG. 102A, the sand device 300 reads the credit information, displays 12345 on the credit level display unit 322, and displays the cash level display unit 321 on the cash level display unit 321. 3 bars) and a credit mode command is transmitted. When the credit control unit 165 receives the credit mode command from the sand device 300, the credit display unit 169 remains 0, and the card balance display unit 50 displays Crt (Credit abbreviation) indicating a mode in which credit is used. (See FIG. 103A). When the player operates the payout button 334 or the loan button 51 in this state, authentication is performed by mutual communication (communication including transmission / reception of the payout command or the loan command), and the credit frequency 50 which is the minimum unit of the payout credit is displayed in the credit display unit. 169. The credit frequency display unit 322 displays 12295 which is a value obtained by subtracting 50 from 12345 (see FIG. 103B). That is, the credit frequency 50 is paid out from the sand device 300 to the credit control unit 165 at any time by one payout operation or lending operation. However, when the credit display unit 169 displays even one credit, the credit may not be paid out even if a payout operation or a lending operation is performed. That is, only when the credit display unit 169 displays the credit 0, the credit frequency 50 as the minimum unit is paid out.

  The credit control unit 165 changes from the state in which the data 00 is input to the data input circuit 166 to the state in which the data 11 indicating the number of credits 3 or more is input in the state of FIG. 102B or 103B. To do. When the maximum bet button 8 is operated in this state (three inserted number LEDs 4a are turned off and the betting number is not set), the main control unit 100 lights three inserted number LEDs 4a and only credits three. Insertion data indicating that a bet is inserted is output to the credit control unit 165. The credit control unit 165 causes the credit display unit 169 (stored credit display unit) to display 47, which is a value obtained by subtracting the credit 3 (see FIGS. 104A and 104B). In this state, when the player operates the return button 52 (credit return switch) or the return button 332, the credit control unit 165 receives a signal from the return button sensor 168, and sends a return signal to the data input circuit 166 for only one pulse. Let them enter. When the main control unit 100 sets a predetermined number of three bets for one game and the game can be started, the return button 52 is operated to receive a return signal from the data input circuit 166. The betting number data indicating the betting number 3 is transmitted to the credit control unit 165.

  Upon receiving this betting number data, the credit control unit 165 transmits return credit information (game value) with a return credit of 50 (value obtained by calculating 47 + 3) to the sand device 300. The data indicating 47 and the data indicating 3 may be transmitted as they are. The sand device 300 adds the return credit 50 to the membership card, etc., and records and discharges the cash balance frequency and the credit balance frequency. In the case of FIG. 104 (A), a cash balance of 70 degrees and a credit balance of 12395 (value obtained by calculating 12345 + 50) are recorded on the discharged membership card or the like. In the case of FIG. 104 (B), a cash balance 80 degrees and a credit balance 12345 (a value obtained by calculating 12295 + 50) are recorded on the discharged membership card or the like (that is, exactly the same as the original record information). Yes, no change). FIG. 105 shows a display state after the membership card or the like is discharged. The cash level display unit 321, the credit level display unit 322, and the card balance display unit 50 are all displayed as “−”, and the credit display unit 169 displays “ When “0” is displayed, all three of the input number LEDs 4a are turned off. If the player operates the return button 52 in a state where the replay combination (replaying combination) wins and the next one game can be executed, the main control unit 100 transmits bet amount data indicating the bet number 0. Then, the credit control unit 165 transmits the return credit information (game value) that the return credit is 47 to the sand device 300. The sand device 300 adds the return credit 47 to the membership card, etc., and records and discharges the cash balance frequency and the credit balance frequency. The main control unit 100 outputs a warning command to the sub control unit 160 because replay is possible. The sub-control unit 160 displays a warning screen on the display effect device 11 and generates a warning sound from the speaker unit 12 to notify the player that the game can be replayed.

  As another embodiment, when the player operates the return button 52 or the return button 332 in the state shown in FIG. 104A, the state shown in FIG. The state shown in FIG. 105 may be obtained by the second operation. Similarly, when the player operates the return button 52 or the return button 332 in the state of FIG. 104 (B), the state of FIG. 103 (B) is obtained by returning three bets by the first operation. The state shown in FIG. 105 may be obtained by the second operation. That is, when the credit control unit 165 receives information that the return bet number is 0 from the main control unit 100 by any return button operation, the credit control unit 165 records the cash balance frequency and the credit balance frequency in the sand card 300 on the member card or the like. To discharge.
