Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To further easily achieve a high net increase AT within a proper ball putout range exceeding a lower limit 55% and less than an upper limit 120% by combining RBB-AT.SOLUTION: When s is a total winning combination constant number obtained by aggregating winning combination constants obtained by multiplying the number of winning combination establishment values for each area, a random-shooting display probability, and a dividend ratio obtained by dividing the number of acquisitions by the number of insertions, r is the number of replay winning combination establishment values, and M is a random number range, then an expectation value without replay is Eo=s/(M-r) and an expectation value with replay is Ei=(s+r)/M. The expectation value Eo without replay when a generator is operated is set higher than that when all generators are not operated, and the expectation value with a replay when the generator is operated is set lower than that when at least one generator is not operated. AT (Assist Time) is actuated in a game state (in an internal state of the regulation number of 3 pieces) when the expectation value with replay becomes higher than that when the generator is operated.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5

Description

  The present invention relates to a spinning machine, other slot machines, arcade game machines, and other gaming machines. In particular, in the state of the game inside the special role where the right to win the special role that activates the feature to facilitate winnings is carried out, the push order of the stop button and the pattern to be aimed are displayed on the liquid crystal display device etc. In addition, the present invention relates to a gaming machine in which an assist time (hereinafter referred to as AT) for informing navigation information intended to display a combination of symbols corresponding to a winning combination determined by an internal lottery is operable.

  In Patent Document 1, the consecutive action device RBB related to the first kind special agent RB that increases the winning probability or the number of combinations of symbols for the winning combination is used for the special role, and it is not used for the special role in the general gaming state. However, if it is not possible to display the combination of the actor's action symbols and the game state is moved to the inside of the special role where the right to win the special role is carried over, it will be difficult to display the combination of the actor's action symbols. The game will continue to maintain a high replay high probability state by shifting the special game winning area and the mischievous area to the regaming game winning area. In the situation where either an elector who can get a high payout at the correct answer or a re-game player wins with high probability, under this situation, the AT is operated at a predetermined opportunity, and the correct answer push order for the elector is played To And knowledge, the basic specifications of the so-called RBB-AT machine as a game medium of high payout can be easily acquired discloses exceed the number of charged game medium.

Japanese Patent No. 5656035

In the above AT machines, under a three-game game with a prescribed number, that is, three inserted game media, a net increase per game (one game) by the AT (the number of acquired game media-the number of input game media) is evaluated as a high net increase. To get 2 to 3 cards, for example 2.8, you can't hit any of the multiple winning combinations that will win a high payout such as 8 in the game state inside the special role For example, the number of winning values for the random number range 65536 is 37080/65536 with a value of 37080.
AT net increase = (8-3 sheets) × 37080 / 65536≈2.8 sheets.

  In addition, in the normal gaming state in which the probability of winning a re-gamer is 8978/65536 ≒ 1 / 7.3 and a special game is being drawn, the combination of the highest payout symbols corresponding to the winner is always The expected value of the number of game media acquired per unit input game media (one input) is 8/3 × 37080 mainly due to the existence of alternatives under the condition that there is no missing by simulation test assumed to be displayed. / (65536-8978) ≒ 1.75 (175%), but with the so-called bonus specification that the number of game media that can be acquired in the gaming state during the operation of the accessory is less than the number of input game media, It is expected that the payout rate in a long-term game such as 17500 times can be suppressed below a predetermined prescribed upper limit value such as 120%.

  However, the game is in a special role inside which the player spends most of the game time, and it is free by a test firing test that performs stop operation in any order and at any timing under non-AT where AT does not operate When hitting, only when the correct answer is selected in the order of one of the six push orders of left middle right, left / right middle, middle left / right, middle right left, right left middle, right middle left, right / left Since a high payout of 1 card can be obtained, the expected value of the number of acquired game media falls to about one-sixth of that at the time of AT operation, and what becomes a payout of 8 when 3 cards are inserted is effectively 8 x 1/6 = 1 .33 payouts, that is, for each input, 1.33 sheets / 3 sheets ≒ 0.44 (about 44%), and the prescribed specified lower limit value such as 55%, where the payout rate is slightly higher than half However, it is difficult for the player to play because the ball is too low. It can not provide the play to enjoy.

  According to the conventional knowledge, in order to achieve the lower limit of 55% by free hitting inside the special role, the winning probability of the re-gamer in the gaming state inside the special role is increased, that is, the number of winning values of the re-game character is increased. It has been considered that it is a useful policy to increase the expected value by increasing the value and reducing the effective value in the denominator in the expected value calculation of the number of acquired gaming media (random number range-number of re-playing player winning values). This idea itself is in the gaming state in which the winning combination is inactive under the same prescribed number, because the probability variation of the winning combination between the gaming state in which the winning combination is not operating is prohibited. It is necessary to keep the same winning specifications for the winning roles both inside and outside the special role. To change the expected value, it is necessary to use the probability change of the replaying role triggered by the internal winning of the special role. Based on the right idea of being appropriate.

  However, the higher the replay probability, the higher the expected value under non-AT and the easier it is to exceed the lower limit of 55%. On the other hand, the number of game media that can be returned to the player under AT is lower than under non-AT. As a result, the effects of the high net increase AT will be lost. In addition, there are fears that replays occur frequently even under AT. Therefore, when continuation of AT is managed by the number of games, the number of games that do not contribute to the increase in game media increases, and the number of game media increases as the player expects. In addition, when the continuation of AT is managed by the net increase of game media or the number of navigations of alternative roles, the increase rate of the game media is slowed down, and there is a risk that the game entertainment will be killed.

  Therefore, it is originally desirable to achieve a lower limit of 55% without increasing the chance of winning a re-gamer within the special role. To this end, the expected value should be raised by the winning specification of the winning combination itself. However, in this case, the expected value in the general gaming state that should be the winning specification of the same winning role as in the special role inside will also increase, and in the gaming state when the role is active, the individual winning role will not be won Due to the demand for the first type special feature that should increase the total winning probability without reducing the probability, the expected value in the gaming state during the operation of the accessory must be increased, and the number of acquired game media is the input game media Even if you apply a decreasing bonus that will be less than the number, the effect of restraining the ball will remain within a certain range, and the upper limit regulation of less than 120% can be cleared under the condition of no missing in the general gaming state It becomes difficult.

  The present invention provides a gaming machine that can more easily realize a high net increase AT within an appropriate payout range exceeding a predetermined specified lower limit of 55% and a specified upper limit of less than 120% in combination with a bonus specification reduced by RBB-AT or the like. The task is to do.

The reference numerals of the drawings are illustrated in parentheses for illustration.
It has a plurality of variable display elements (left reel 1L, middle reel 1C, right reel 1R) for variably displaying symbols of a plurality of frames,
Based on the variable display start operation when the game medium is inserted, a random number value for internal lottery is extracted, and a re-game player who can play the next game without inserting a new game medium, a prize that can acquire a game medium with a predetermined payout number. Internal lottery that determines whether a winning combination is included in the winning area based on whether the extracted random number belongs to a winning area divided in advance for a plurality of winning roles including special roles that activate the winning combination and the winning combination. Means (K);
Variable display control means (reel control) that allows the variable display of the variable display elements to be stopped based on the corresponding stop operation and to allow the display of the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination determined by the internal lottery on a predetermined effective line. A gaming machine including means V) is assumed.

The “variable display element” includes a reel, a belt, and an image. “Game media” includes game medals, game balls, and electromagnetic records of storage devices.
“Accessories” means special equipment for facilitating winning a prize (sixth of the revolving game machines in the table of Article 7 of the Law Enforcement Regulations on Regulations on Customs Business and Optimization of Business) .
“Winning” is displayed as a combination required in order to acquire a game medal or the like (game medal or game ball (gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (1) C)) for the symbol. That means (Guide Machine Rules Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3) D) “Re-game” refers to a game that can be played without inserting game medals or the like (gaming machine rule Article 6 Appendix 2 (3) b). In addition, the operation of the re-game, the accessory, and the accessory continuous operation device is not a prize (National Institute of Technology, Chofu 155, May 26, 2004). (4) (1) B (C)).

In the above gaming machine, the expected value of the number of game media to be acquired per unit input game media (one) that is expected to be acquired in the gaming state in which the special item is operating is less than 1 (for example, 0.6373 ( 63.73%)), it is composed of a first-class special accessory or an accessory continuous actuating device (RBB1, RBB2) related to the first-type special accessory.
“First-class special feature” is a feature that increases the number of symbol combinations related to winnings per prescribed number or increases the probability that a conditional device related to winnings per prescribed number will operate. It means that the operation can be continued until the game result is obtained no more than 12 times (game machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3) G).
The “continuous actuating device related to the first type special feature” is a device capable of continuously operating the first type special feature, which is activated when a specific symbol combination is displayed in advance. This means that the operation ends when it is determined (Attached Table 2 (3) H of the Attached Rules of the Gaming Machine Rules).
“Prescribed number” means the number of game medals that need to be inserted in order to obtain a single game result for each type of game (Article 6 Attached Table 2 of the Game Machine Rules) 3) F).
"Condition device" is a device whose operation is required to display a combination of symbols related to the operation of winning, re-playing, bonus or continuous action of bonus, It means that it operates when it wins a lottery (an electronic computer lottery performed in-flight) (Attachment Rules 2 of Article 6 (3) E).

In addition, when the internal lottery means (K) is operated in a predetermined time when the winning combination winning value determined to be a winning combination according to the winning area classification is stopped in any order and at any timing ( The display probability that the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination relating to the winning combination can be displayed on the active line within 190 ms, etc., and the number of game media acquired by the combination of symbols regarding the winning combination displayed on the effective line is the number of input gaming media The total number of winning combination constants for all winning combinations subject to lottery in one gaming state, which is calculated by multiplying the divided payout ratio, is s, and the number of replaying role winning values determined to be the winning of the replaying role R, and the numerical range of the random number for the internal lottery as M (65536 etc.),
The expected value without replays is Eo = s / (M−r),
The expected value including replays is Ei = (s + r) / M
In each of the above definitions, the expected re-emission value Eo in the gaming state during operation of the special item for the special role is set higher than the expected re-emission value in the gaming state in which all the functional items are inactive. In addition, the replay inclusion expected value Ei in the gaming state during operation of the special feature is set to a specification lower than the expected replay inclusion value in the gaming state in which at least one accessory is not operated. .

The winning combination constant is calculated as follows, for example, in the gaming state when the specified number of three items is inactive (in general and inside). It should be noted that the numerical value range of random numbers for internal lottery is M = 65536, and the total number of symbol combinations is 16 × 16 × 16 = 4096.
B) If the winning value is 1022, the display probability is 256/4096 (symbol drawing rate), and the payout ratio is 1/3 (one payout when the specified number is 3), the winning area 1 division,
It is calculated as 1022 × 256/4096 × 1/3.
B) If the number of winning values is 1000, the display probability is 1, and the payout ratio is 1, the winning area is divided into 4 divisions, “ALL 3 to 4 ALL”.
Calculated as 4000 × 1 × 1.
C) The number of winning values is 6180 for each block of the winning area 4 divisions, when pushing correct answer, display probability 1/6 (pressing correct answer rate (1/6) x symbol pulling rate (1)), payout ratio 8 / 3 (8 payouts when the specified number is 3), incorrect push order, display probability 5/12 (push order incorrect answer rate (5/6) x symbol draw rate (1/2)) 3 (1 payout when the specified number is 3), 6 blocks, 24 categories of “high payout option”
It is calculated by 37080 × (1/6 × 8/3 + 5/12 × 1/3).
D) The number of winning values is 1000, when the correct answer is the push order, the display probability is 1/3 (push order correct answer rate (1/3) x symbol pull-in rate (1)), the payout ratio is 1, and when the push order is incorrect, the display probability 1/6 (push order incorrect answer rate (2/3) x symbol pull-in rate (1/4)) with a payout ratio of 1/3, in the winning area 4 division "3 choice left 1 to 4"
It is calculated by 4000 × (1/3 × 1 + 1/6 × 1/3).
E) The number of winning values is 1000, when the correct answer is the push order, the display probability is 2/3 (push order correct answer rate (2/3) x symbol pull-in rate (1)), the payout ratio is 1, and when the push order is incorrect, the display probability 1/12 (push order incorrect answer rate (1/3) x symbol pull-in rate (1/4)) with a payout ratio of 1/3, in the winning area 4 division "1 to 4 other than left for 3 choices"
It is calculated by 4000 × (2/3 × 1 + 1/12 × 1/3).
In the case of this example, the total winning combination constant s ≈ 29984.6, and the re-playing combination winning value number r = 15434 (inside the special combination, the prescribed number is 3),
Eo = 29984.6 / (65536-15434) ≈0.5985 (59.85%),
Ei = (29984.6 + 15434) /65536≈0.6930 (69.30%).

For example, the winning combination constant in the gaming state during operation of the special item is calculated as follows.
F] If you have a “small role ALL” in the winning area 1 category with a winning value of 10741, a display probability of 1, and a payout ratio of 8/3 (8 payouts for a limited number of 3)
It is calculated as 10741 × 1 × 8/3.
G) If the winning value number is 39362, the display probability is 1, and the payout ratio is 1/3 (one payout when the limited number is 3), the winning area is 1 division “ALL”.
It is calculated by 39362 × 1 × 1/3.
In this example, the total winning combination constant s≈41763.3, and when the re-playing combination winning value r = 0,
Eo = Ei = 41763.3 / 65536≈0.6373 (63.73%).

  Then, a high replay inclusion expectation value (for example, Ei = 69.30%) with respect to a low replay inclusion expectation value (for example, Ei = 63.73%) in the gaming state during the operation of the special item related to the special combination, When the game state is inactive (for example, inside the special role, the specified number is 3), the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination determined by the internal lottery means (K) is displayed on the active line. The assist time (AT) for notifying the player of the navigation information intended to be operated is enabled.

  As described above, the number of game media that can be acquired by the operation of the bonus game is the number of game media that can be acquired by the action of the bonus game in the game status of the special feature that is higher than the game status in which all the bonuses are not in operation. Because of the so-called reduced bonus specification that is less than the number, the expected value Eo without replay is greater than 0 and less than 1, and lower than this, the expected value Eo without replay in the gaming state in which all the actors are inactive = S / (M−r) is also greater than 0 and less than 1, and s <M−r, and therefore, from the relationship of s + r <M, the expected value Ei = (s + r) / M is also greater than 0 and less than 1 Become. As shown in FIG. 6, when a characteristic curve is drawn with r on the horizontal axis and expected values Eo and Ei on the vertical axis, a range of 0 <Eo, Ei <1, that is, 0 <r <(M−s). In the range, the inversely proportional curve by -r of Eo is located at the bottom (small value), and the straight line of Ei at + r is located at the top (large value), and Eo <Ei, that is, the replay inclusion expected value Ei is the expectation without replaying The relationship becomes larger than the value Eo.

  Therefore, compared with the gaming state in which the accessory is not activated, which enables the assist time AT, the expected value Eo without replay is high, but the expected value Ei with replay is low. In the relative relationship with the ball under non-AT in the gaming state in which the actor is inactive, which can activate the AT, it can be suppressed to the last value of the last minute or efficient, It is possible to skillfully increase the effect of restraining the appearance of balls by reducing the bonus specifications. Therefore, the number of game media that can be acquired in the game state during the operation of the accessory is less than the number of input game media, so-called bonus type of the first type special feature or the type of special feature continuous action device related to the first type special feature In the combination, it is possible to more easily realize the high net increase AT within the appropriate payout range exceeding the predetermined specified lower limit 55% and less than the specified upper limit 120%.

  In the above, the re-playing game winning value r in the gaming state during the operation of the special character for the special role is set to 0, and the re-playing expected value Eo in the gaming state in the special character operating for the special role is re-established. It is preferable that the game inclusion expectation value Ei is the same. When r = 0, it becomes Eo = Ei = s / M, and the winning probability of each winning combination (NML1 to 21) is reduced with respect to the gaming state in which the assisting time AT is operable and inactive. While the total winning probability is increased, the replay-including expectation is higher than the replay-rejected expected value Eo (for example, 0.5985 = 59.85%) in the gaming state in which the assisting time AT is operable without being activated. The total winning combination constant s in the gaming state during the operation of the winning combination so that the desired expected value (for example, 0.6373 = 63.73%) lower than the value Ei (for example, 0.6930 = 69.30%), That is, for example, the size of the winning area such as “small role ALL” for obtaining a high payout (8 payouts for 3 inserts) and “single win ALL” for only low payout (1 payout for 3 inserts) can be easily set. Can be determined.

  FIG. 1 shows a swivel game machine to which the present invention is applied. The swivel-type gaming machine is generally called a pachislot machine, and it was revised in 1985 (1985) after the revision of the "Game Machine Rules", that is, the first regulation of the National Public Safety Commission on January 30, 2004. ) A slot machine that conforms to the National Public Safety Commission Regulation No. 4 “Rules for Game Machine Approval and Type Approval” on February 12. The terminology and its technical contents conform to the current game machine rules.

  The gaming machine housing 8B includes a box-shaped rear cabinet 8R and door-shaped upper and lower front cabinets 8E and 8F. In the upper front cabinet 8E, the reel panel 8 that houses the main reel 100 (main drum), the left middle right design symbols 7L, 7C, and 7R that are displayed in a variable manner in cooperation with the operation of the main reel 100. A large-screen liquid crystal display device 70, an upper decoration lamp 81, a left decoration lamp 82, a right decoration lamp 83, and a reel panel constituting the effect display device 7 that projects the predetermined navigation information during operation of the assist time AT and the like in full color. Four accent decoration lamps 84 facing the corners of the eight corners, and a portal decoration lamp 85 facing the top, left, and right of the liquid crystal display device 70 are provided. The lower front cabinet 8F includes an operation unit 8S, a waist panel 8P, a lower left decorative lamp 86, and a lower right decorative lamp 87. A generic name of 81 to 87 is called a decorative lamp 88. Reference numerals 91 to 94 denote speakers for outputting BGM and various sound effects, 8M denotes a medal payout opening, 8G denotes a medal tray, and 8T denotes an ashtray. Note that left and right mean left and right in the player's line of sight facing the gaming machine. The same applies hereinafter.

  The transparent display window 80 of the reel panel 8 includes a left reel 1L, a middle reel 1C, and a right reel 1R which are a plurality of variable display elements constituting the main reel 100, and each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R. Three consecutive frames out of a total of 16 symbols on the outer periphery of the window face the window. The steady rotation speed (constant speed rotation speed) of each of the reels 1L, 1C, and 1R is about 80 rotations / minute (this embodiment is about 79.9 rotations / minute), and about 750 ms (this embodiment is about Rotate once in approximately 751 ms). During normal forward rotation, each symbol scrolls from top to bottom, and the average time required for the symbol to move one frame is about 46.9 ms. Therefore, in the gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 5 (1) A (G), the specified time from the normal reel stop operation to the stop is “within 190 ms” ((190 ÷ 46.9) -1 ) Integer solution = 3 frames is the maximum number of sliding frames allowed.

  The display window 80 is intentionally not provided with a line drawing or pattern for displaying an effective line for determining a game result, line illumination, or the like. A plurality of rows and a plurality of symbol display positions displayed through the window of the display window 80, that is, the three rows of the left, middle, and right reels 1L, 1C, and 1R and the upper, middle, and lower three rows respectively. At 3 × 3 = 9 symbol display positions specified by columns and stages, for example, only the upper / upper / middle line (upper left / middle / upper / right middle) is set as an effective line. However, the upper line (upper left-middle upper-upper right), the middle line (middle left-middle middle-right middle), the lower line (lower left-middle lower-lower right), the lower line (upper left-middle middle-lower right) Adjacent to the same line or one step, such as a line that rises to the right (lower left-middle middle-upper right), an upper V-shaped line (upper left-middle middle-upper right), and a lower V-shaped line (middle left-middle lower-right middle) Another line obtained by connecting the symbol display positions with one straight line or a broken line may be used as an effective line, or two or more lines including upper, upper, and middle lines may be used as effective lines.

  The operation unit 8S includes a medal insertion slot 2 for inserting a game medal as a game medium, a jog dial JD having a push button PB and a dial DA for causing the player's operation to participate in the production, and an electromagnetic record of the storage device, that is, a credit from the credit card. The bet button 3 for pulling down, for example, three (three) multiplied as the first prescribed number necessary for the game or the second prescribed number different from the first prescribed number, for example, two (two) multiplied, and the number remaining in the credit Corresponding to the settlement button 4 for dropping the medal to the medal tray 8G, the start lever 5 for starting the variable display (rotation) of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R of the main reel 100, and each reel 1L, 1C, 1R. Left stop button 6L, which serves as a stop switch for individually stopping variable display of the corresponding reel, middle stop button C, right stop button 6R, medal return button 20 depressed when the medal insertion slot 2 downstream medal clogging, comprises a door key hole 8K.

  In the lower left and right sides of the liquid crystal display device 70, there are a credit display DL1 for displaying the current number of credits, a payout display DL2 for displaying the number of payout medals by winning, and one, two, and three winning medals. 1 to 3 lamps EL1 to be lit each time, a bet lamp ELb to be lit when a medal can be accepted, a start lamp ELs to be lit when a start operation by the start lever 5 is possible, and a combination of symbols relating to replay The game basic lamps 30 including a replay lamp ELr that is turned on when displayed are provided.

  When the bet lamp ELb is lit, when one medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 2 with the hanging medal being 0, the one lamp EL1 is lit. It becomes the prescribed number. When one more sheet is inserted, the three-sheet lamp EL3 is lit and becomes the specified number when three sheets are loaded. When the specified number of multiplied medals is reached, the start lamp ELs is turned on, and the start operation by the start lever 5 becomes possible. A two-hatch game is started when the two-lamp EL2 is lit, and a three-hatch game is started when the three-lamp EL3 is lit. If a medal is inserted into the medal slot 2 without operating the start lever 5 after the three-lamp EL3 is lit, the counter of the credit indicator DL1 is advanced and can be stored up to a predetermined upper limit of 50. Up to 50 medals paid out by winning are added to the credit, and medals paid out exceeding 50 are received by the medal tray 8G from the medal payout opening 8M.

  As shown in FIG. 2, there are 8 types of bars, grapes, plums, bells, cherries, replays, blanks 1 and blanks 2 on the outer peripheral surfaces of the reel bands 10L, 10C and 10R of the reels 1L, 1C and 1R. The symbols are drawn by printing or the like according to the symbol numbers 0, 1 to 15 and according to a unique vertical arrangement. Each of the reels 1L, 1C, and 1R is a 16-frame reel that arranges symbols of 16 frames, and has a smaller diameter than a standard 21-frame reel that arranges symbols of 21 frames. The upper and lower ends of each reel strip 10L, 10C, 10 are connected to form a ring, and the symbols are scrolled endlessly.

  For driving each reel 1L, 1C, 1R, a stepping motor having a specification in which one step angle for driving a standard 21-frame reel is about 1.43 degrees and rotates once in 504 steps by 1-2 phase excitation is used. . In the case of 21-frame reels, an equal number of steps of 504/21 = 24 steps can be assigned per symbol, but in the case of 16-frame reels, 504/16 = 31.5 is not an integer solution, so an uneven number of steps is assigned. ing.

  The number of non-uniform steps is 32 for the larger number of steps and 30 for the smaller number of steps, and the difference is an even number of 2 or more, more specifically, 2 steps as the most preferable example. It is said. The smaller even number of steps 30 is assigned to each of the symbols corresponding to symbol numbers 0, 4, 8, and 12 whose symbol number including 0 is a multiple of 4, and the other symbol numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, The larger even number of steps 32 is assigned to each of the symbols 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 15. In this way, the symbols for assigning the number of steps 30 and the symbols for assigning the number of steps 32 are arranged in a predetermined repetitive pattern (four repetitive patterns of “30, 32, 32, 32”), and each reel 1L, 1C, 1R is arranged. The symbols are arranged almost evenly distributed on the outer periphery.

  In the design, plums and bells are placed every 4 frames with 3 frames in between, and even if they are stopped at any timing, they can be pulled into the effective line within a range of up to 3 frames. (Retraction rate 1). Specific drawing symbols in the first area of 8 frames in total of symbol numbers 15, 0, 1 to 6, that is, left reel 1L blank 1 or cherry, middle reel 1C blank 1 or blank 2, right reel 1R cherry or blank 2 can be drawn into the effective line within the range of a maximum of three frames from the first area, but cannot be drawn from the second area of a total of eight frames of symbol numbers 7 to 14 (drawing rate 1/2) ). The specific drawing symbols in the second area, that is, the bar or blank 2 of the left reel 1L, the bar or cherry of the middle reel 1C, and the bar or blank 1 of the right reel 1R are within a range of a maximum of 3 frames from the second area. Although it can be drawn into the effective line, it cannot be drawn from the first area (drawing rate 1/2).

  FIG. 3 shows a combination of symbols on the effective line corresponding to the condition device related to the operation determined by the internal lottery, that is, the winning combination (winning flag). The number of game media input per unit (1 piece) during the action starting with the left symbol “bar”-middle symbol “bar”-right symbol “grape” as a special character that activates the character to facilitate winning. The expected value of the number of acquired game media per game is less than 1, that is, the total number of acquired game media is expected to be lower than the total number of input game media, and the operation is terminated when the total number of acquired game media exceeds the first upper limit, for example, 30 cards. The number of game media acquired per unit input game media (1) during the action of the first special role RBB1, and the symbol starting with the display of the left symbol "bar"-middle symbol "grape"-right symbol "bar" Expected value is less than 1, that is, the total number of game media is expected to be less than the total number of input game media and the number of game media is less than the first special role, and the total number of game media acquired is the second upper limit, for example, 8 2nd special role R which ends the operation when it exceeds it It has defined and B2. The number of games during operation of the first special combination RBB1 in which the game state during operation of the special feature RBB1 continues is the second special combination in which the game state during operation of the special feature RBB2 continues Expect more than the number of games in RBB2 operation. These special roles RBB1 and RBB2 are both constituted by an accessory continuous operation device according to the first type special accessory.

  REP 1 to 3 are defined as replaying players who can play the next game with the same multiplier as the original multiplication without introducing new game media, and NML 1 to 21 are defined as winning combinations that can acquire game medals, that is, small roles. Yes. There are some that list a plurality of symbols in one column. For example, for REP1, the symbol on the left reel 1L means replay or grape. In the remarks column, examples of display items in the display window 80 corresponding to each combination are shown.

  Among the small roles, NML1 to NML5 are high payout combinations that can win medals exceeding the inserted number of 8 when the specified number is 3, and 4 when the specified number is 2. The NMLs 6 to 8 are medium payout combinations that can win three medals when the prescribed number is three and when the prescribed number is two. NML 9 to 21 are low payout combinations that can earn one medal that is less than the number inserted when the specified number is three or two.

  Among the low payout roles, the first group of NML 9-12 is multiplied by the respective pull-in rates of the specific symbol of the first or second area of the left symbol plum and the middle and right symbols, and the second group of NML 13-16 is The third group of NML 17-20 is multiplied by the respective drawing rates of the specific drawing symbols of the first and second areas of the middle symbol bell and the left and right symbols, and the third group of NML 17-20 is the first or second area of the right symbol plum and the left and middle symbols Each of the specific drawing symbols multiplied by the respective pulling rates becomes 1/4 as the symbol pulling rate. In the case of NML9 + 12 that duplicates NML9 and 12 in the first group, in the case of NML10 + 11 that duplicates NML10 and 11, in the case of NML13 + 16 that duplicates NML13 and 16 in the second group, NML14 and 15 are duplicated. In the case of NML14 + 15, in the third group, in the case of NML17 + 20 in which NML17 and 20 are overlapped, in the case of NML18 + 19 in which NML18 and 19 are overlapped, 1/2 is the symbol pull-in rate.

  FIG. 4 shows the relationship between each winning area in the internal lottery and the operating condition device (winning combination). In the internal lottery, when the start lever 5 is operated, a random number value extracted from, for example, a 2-byte counter that is updated at high speed on the RAM of the main controller MC is preliminarily divided into a numerical range M = 65536 that can be taken. The condition device related to the operation in the game, that is, the winning combination is determined depending on which winning area it belongs to.

  The winning area is a small role ALL, a single role ALL, a chance role, a triple role ALL1-4, a high payout option, corresponding to a winning role (small role) that does not win any role. The right push order to obtain 8 or 4 high payouts is the first “left” and the second “middle” is the high payout choice left middle 1 to 4, the same correct push order is the first “left” 2nd “right” high payout choice left and right 1-4, same right push order as first “middle” 2nd “left” high payout choice left 1-4, same correct push order 1 to 4 for high payout choices with the first “middle” and 2nd “right”, and 1 to the right for high payout choices with the right push order as the first “right” and the second “left” -4, the right correct push order is the first “right” and the second “middle”. 3 for the first “left” 1 to 4 alternatives left to 1-4, the same correct answer pressing order is “other than left” 1 to 4 other than left left, replays 1 to 4 corresponding to re-playing players, rare role lip, BAR target lip, RBB1 and RBB2 corresponding to special roles are included, and the condition device (role) listed in each column is won by a single or multiple wins, and the lottery target role and the number of winning values are determined according to the game state (type of game). .

  The small role ALL wins any of the eight winning combinations NML 1 to 5, and the one winning combination ALL wins any one of the NML 9 to 21 winning combinations. As a chance combination, a single combination NML 21 is awarded with a symbol drawing rate of 4 × 8 × 8 / (16 × 16 × 16) = 256/4096. The three-piece combination ALL1 to 4 wins any of the three-piece combinations NML6 to 8. Each high payout winning combination wins a high payout combination (8 or 4) included in the duplicate winning combination when the pushing order is correct, and wins a single combination with a symbol drawing rate of 1/2 when the pushing order is incorrect. The three winning combinations 1 to 4 other than the left three winning combinations 1 to 4 win the three winning combinations when the pressing order is correct, and win the one winning combination at the symbol drawing rate of 1/4 when the pressing order is incorrect. There may be cases where a winning combination (small combination) related to a combination of symbols whose symbol pull-in rate is not 1 is missed.

  In a general gaming state in which the special roles RBB1 and RBB2 are drawn, a three-game game with a first prescribed number of three and a two-game game with a second prescribed number of two are enabled. The probabilities for replaying players are both 8978 / 65536≈1 / 7.3. The first special role RBB1 draws with the first winning probability only when the specified number is three, for example, 6446 / 65536≈1 / 10.17, and the second special role RBB2 only has the first winning probability when the specified number is two. It draws with a higher second winning probability, for example, 10442 / 65536≈ 1 / 6.28. However, this machine is designed to increase the number of medals by operating the assist time AT, and these special roles RBB1 and RBB2 are expected to have the number of acquired game media per unit input game media (one) during the operation of the game. It is a bonus to reduce the value to be less than 1, and there is no advertising phrase that clearly indicates the presence of the special role in the gaming machine housing 8B or the like, and it has a presence value exclusively as an internal state of the gaming machine. In general, the number of winning values of the winning combination (small combination) is 50102 when the specified number is 3, and 46106 when the specified number is 2.

  Inside the first special role (inside RBB1) or inside the second special role (inside RBB2) when the special action RBB1, RBB2 was won but the corresponding action symbol combination could not be displayed and the right to win was carried over ), You can choose the prescribed number of 3 and 2. When the specified number is 3, the number of RBB1 winning values and the number of unbounced areas in general are shifted to the winning number of replaying players, and the winning number of replaying players is set to 15434. 1 / 15434≈1 / 4.25, which is moderately increased. When the specified number is 2, the number of RBB2 winning values and the number of unbounced areas in general are shifted to the replaying player winning number, and the replaying player winning value is 19430, and the replaying player probability is increased. 1/1 / 19430≈1 / 3.37, which is higher than inside RRB1. The number of winning values of the winning combination (small role) is 50102 when the specified number is 3, and 46106 when the specified number is 2, which is the same as that in general. This is because the probability change of the winning combination (small combination) is prohibited except when the combination is in operation (the gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 5 (1) B). When the prescribed number is the same, the inside of RBB1 and the inside of RBB2 have the same specification. For this reason, in general, an RBB2 winning that is easy to win with 2 cards is obtained and transferred to the inside of the RBB2 at an early stage. It is appropriate to schedule an AT operation.

  The specified number is limited to three uniformly during the operation of the accessory relating to the first special combination (in operation of RBB1) and during the operation of the accessory relating to the second special combination (in operation of RBB2). The combination of the small role ALL and the single role ALL is 50103, which is 1 larger than the standard number 50102 in the general and internal numbers.

  As shown in FIG. 5, in consideration of the prescribed number, the gaming state is “ordinary number 3 in general”, “regulated number 2 in general”, “regulated number 3 in RBB1 inside” “specified number 2 in RBB1 inside” ”“ Inside the specified number of 3 sheets in the RBB2 ”,“ Inside the specified number of 2 sheets in the RBB2 ”,“ In operation of the specified number of 3 sheets of RBB1 ”, and“ In operation of the specified number of 3 sheets of RBB2 ”. However, in the final confirmation test immediately before shipment from the factory or the acceptance confirmation test at the time of store introduction, the RBB2 of the RBB2 that has a high probability of winning from the “regular number of 2 in general” by a manufacturer worker or store staff, etc. An operation is planned in which a winning combination is obtained and transferred to the inside of the RBB 2 in advance. In general, the manufacturer logo mark or the like is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 70, and when the inside is shifted to the inside, the effect symbols 7L, 7C, and 7R are displayed on the liquid crystal display device 70 to notify the completion of preparation. In addition, since the winning value (dividend) of the winning combination (small role) and the dividend are given preferential treatment when 3 cards are applied, and the AT operation is limited to 3 cards, in effect, the player The game will be progressed in “within several RBB2 inside”.

  In the inside of RBB2, the combination of operation symbols corresponding to carry-over RBB2 is invalid because the winning flag of RBB2, which is not drawn in general when the specified number is 3, is not valid. Even in the case of several 2 sheets, there is no fraud area, and even if they are missed, the combination of RBB2 operation symbols cannot be displayed because they are full hit specifications, so they are not aligned, and do not shift from inside RBB2 to during RBB2 operation. Even if the above operation is not thorough and the player starts playing from a specified number of 3 in general and moves inside the RBB1 by himself, the inside of the RBB1 and the inside of the RBB2 have the same specifications, so the inside of the RBB2 You can enjoy exactly the same gameplay as the inside, and even inside RBB1, the combination of operation symbols corresponding to carry-over RBB1 will be the winning flag of RBB1, which is not drawn when the specified number is 2, when the specified number is 2 It becomes invalid, and even when the specified number is 3, even if there is no fraud area and it is not possible to display the combination of RBB1 operation symbols even if it is omitted, it is not aligned, and RBB1 from inside RBB1 It does not shift during operation. In addition, in this embodiment, when staying in the RBB2 or inside the RBB1, the specification is such that it does not return to the general state even if the power is turned on / off or reset is performed. The game state will not change.

  However, on the store side, it is advantageous to set the internal lottery specifications (combination of winning probabilities, re-games, and special roles according to the specified number (the second rule (3) in Table 6 of the Gaming Machine Rules)) When a so-called setting change is made to change disadvantageously for a plurality of stages, the specification is such that at least during the RBB1 operation, preferably during the RBB2 operation, the game state is returned to the general gaming state. As a result, a player, a manufacturer worker, a store clerk, etc. accidentally or unintentionally displayed a combination of RBB1 action symbols in a general RBB1 winning game and shifted to the RBB1 action. Even if a combination of RBB2 action symbols is displayed in a general RBB2 winning game and a transition is made during RBB2 operation, it does not digest RBB1 operation for a long time, and for a certain period of time Without being digested during the operation of RBB2, the preparation for shifting from the inside to the inside of RBB1 or the inside of RBB2 can be redone immediately. In addition, when the setting is changed during other gaming states except during the RBB1 operation or RBB2 operation, the specification is to maintain the original gaming state, and even if the setting is changed inside the RBB1 or inside the RBB2, The inside can be maintained.

  In the market, this machine is practically equivalent to a three-sheet dedicated machine. For players who maintain medals from the medal slot 2 every time they play, most models currently on the market are three-seat dedicated machines, so there is no particular confusion. Also, when deducting medals from credits, 3 bets for each press and 2 so that the specified number is 3 when the bet button 3 is pressed once or odd times, and the specified number is 2 when pressed twice or even times. Since the stacking is switched, the bet buttons of most models currently on the market can realize a 3-bed max bet with a single press. Therefore, no particular confusion occurs. However, a three-sheet betting button and a two-sheet betting button may be provided individually. In general, during the RBB1 operation or the RBB2 operation that is shifted only when the action symbol can be displayed in the winning game, when the bet button 3 is pressed, a uniform three-sheet multiplication is realized regardless of the number of times of pressing.

  In each gaming state, the number of winning combination winning values determined to be winning for the winning combination according to the division of the winning area, and the winnings related to winning within a specified time of 190 ms when stopping in any order and at any timing Multiply the display probability that the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination can be displayed on the active line and the payout ratio obtained by dividing the number of game media earned by the combination of symbols displayed on the effective line by the number of input game media. The total winning combination constant is s, which is the total of all winning combinations subject to drawing according to the gaming state, r is the replaying player winning value that is determined to be the winning of the replaying player, and a random number for internal drawing. When the range is assumed to be M, the replay-free expected value Eo = s / (M−r) and the replay-included expected value Ei = (s + r) / M are obtained as follows.

A) Specified number of 3 sheets in general s = 1022 × 256/4096 × 1/3; chance role + 4000 × 1 × 1; 3 sheets selection role ALL
+ 37080 × (1/6 × 8/3 + 5/12 × 1/3); high payout option + 4000 × (1/3 × 1 + 1/6 × 1/3); three-card option left + 4000 × (2/3 × 1 + 1/12 × 1/3); 3 sheets other than left choice ≒ 29984.6,
Because r = 8978
Eo = 29984.6 / (65536-8978) ≈0.5302 (53.02%)
Ei = (29984.6 + 8978) /65536≈0.5945 (59.45%)

B) Specified number of 2 sheets in general s = 1022 x 256/4096 x 1/2; Chance role +4 x 1 x 3/2;
+ 37080 × (1/6 × 4/2 + 5/12 × 1/2); high payout option + 4000 × (1/3 × 3/2 + 1/6 × 1/2; left 3 option + 4000 × (2/3) × 3/2 + 1/12 × 1/2); 3 sheets selection role other than left ≒ 26622.9,
Because r = 8978
Eo = 26622.9 / (65536-8978) ≈0.4707 (47.07%)
Ei = (26622.9 + 8978) /65536≈0.5432 (54.32%)

C) Specified number 3 in the RBB1 inside, Specified number 3 in the RBB2 s≈2998.44.6,
Because r = 15434
Eo = 29984.6 / (65536-15434) ≈0.5985 (59.85%)
Ei = (29984.6 + 15434) /65536≈0.6930 (69.30%)

D) Specified number 2 in the RBB1 inside, Specified number 2 in the RBB2 inside s≈26622.9,
Because r = 19430,
Eo = 26622.9 / (65536-19430) ≈0.5774 (57.74%)
Ei = (26622.9 + 19430) /65536≈0.7027 (70.27%)

E) Specified number 3 sheets RBB1 in operation, Specified number 3 sheets RBB2 in operation s = 10741 × 1 × 8/3;
+ 39362 × 1 × 1/3; one-piece role ALL
≒ 41763.3,
Because r = 0,
Eo = Ei = 41763.3 / 65536≈0.6373 (63.73%)

  As described above, the replay-removed expected value Eo≈63.73% in the gaming state in which the specified number of three RBB1 is in operation or in the specified number of three RBB2 is operated, No replays in the specified number 3 in general, in the specified number 2 in general, in the specified number 3 in RBB1, inside the specified number 3 in RBB2, in the specified number 2 in RBB1, in the specified number 2 in RBB2 Replay in the gaming state in which the expected value is higher than 53.02%, 47.07%, 59.85%, 57.74% and the specified number of three RBB1 is operating or the specified number of three RBB2 is operating The expected value Ei ≒ 63.73% is at least one gaming state inactive, that is, inside the specified number 3 RBB1, inside the specified number 3 RBB2, inside the specified number 2 RBB1, inside the specified number Expected value including replay in the inside of the two RBB2 69. 0%, and a lower specification than the 70.27 percent.

  And, at least one item that has a high replay inclusion expectation value for a low replay inclusion expectation value Eo≈63.73% in the gaming state in which the prescribed number three RBB1 is operating or the specified number three RBB2 is operating In the non-operating gaming state, that is, in the gaming state of the inside of the specified number 3 RBB1 and the inside of the specified number 3 RBB2, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination determined by the internal lottery is displayed on the effective line. The assist time for informing the player of the navigation information intended to be enabled is enabled.

  As shown in FIG. 6, when the characteristic curve is drawn with the re-game winning value r on the horizontal axis and the expected values Eo and Ei on the vertical axis, Eo becomes infinite at r = M = 65536. In the inverse proportional curve, Ei becomes a direct proportional line of + r. When the specified number is three and the specified number is two, Eo <Ei, that is, the replay-including expected value Ei is re-established in the range of 0 <Eo, Ei <1, ie, 0 <r <(M−s). It becomes larger than the expected value Eo without game. In the normal number and the inside number of three (inside RBB1 inside or inside RBB2), s = 29984.6, and the vertical axis intersection of Eo and Ei is s / M = 0.4575. In the normal number and the inside number of two sheets (inside the RBB1 or inside the RBB2), s = 26622.9, and the intersection of the vertical axes is s / M = 0.4062.

  Of the three specified numbers in which s and r are specified, Eo is specified by coordinates (8978, 0.5302), and Ei is specified by coordinates (8978, 0.5945). In the inside of the specified number of 3 sheets (inside RBB1 or RBB2), Eo is specified by coordinates (15434, 0.5985), and Ei is specified by coordinates (15434, 0.6930). When the specified number of RBB1 or RBB2 is in operation, r = 0, s = 41763.3, and Eo = Ei = s / M is specified by coordinates (0, 0.6373).

  Similarly, Eo is specified by coordinates (8978, 0.4707), and Ei is specified by coordinates (8978, 0.5432), in general, two specified numbers in which s and r are specified. Eo is specified by coordinates (19430, 0.5774) and Ei is specified by coordinates (19430, 0.7027), inside the prescribed number of 2 sheets (inside RBB1 or RBB2). During the operation of RBB1 or RBB2, the specified number is limited to three, and as described above, r = 0, s = 41763.3, and Eo = Ei = s / M is specified by coordinates (0, 0.6373).

  Based on the above specifications, the expected value Eo without re-game is compared with the gaming state in which the accessory is not activated, that is, the inside of the specified number 3 RBB2 or the gaming state in the specified number 3 RBB1. Expected value Ei with a high replay is low, but in a relative relationship between a ball in a gaming state during RBB1 operation or RBB2 operation and a ball under non-AT in a gaming state in which AT can be operated, It is possible to suppress to the last minute or efficient low value, and to skillfully increase the effect of reducing the amount of balls due to the reduced bonus specification.

  As shown in FIG. 7, in the gaming state with the RBB1 in operation or the RBB2 in operation, the winning number (winning probability) of each winning combination (NML1-21) The number of winning points (winning probability) of the total winning combination (all winning combination ALL + 1 piece winning ALL) is also the total winning combination (chance winning combination) when other items are inactive It is higher than (+3 selection option ALL + high dividend selection option + 3 selection option left + 3 selection option left). Therefore, it satisfies the requirements for the first-class special object, even though the bonus is reduced.

  In the gaming state in the prescribed number of three RBB2 or the prescribed number of three RBB1 in which the assist time AT can be operated, the expected value without replaying which is lower than the expected value Ei for replaying is Eo = 0. 5985 (59.85%), exceeding the predetermined lower limit value 11/20 = 55% prescribed in the fifth (1) b (ri) of Article 6 Attached Table of the Gaming Machine Rules, exceeding the predetermined amount by 1.2 Double (120%) is not exceeded.

The net increase due to the assist time AT operation can be calculated on the premise of winning a high payout and winning without missing, with respect to a winning combination in which the number of acquired gaming media differs from the number of inserted gaming media.
AT net increase = (8-3) × 37080/65536; high payout selection combination + (1-3) × 1022/65536; chance combination≈2.8 sheets / game, and high net increase AT can be realized.

The simulation test stipulated in Article 6 Attached Table 5 (1) B (F) of the Gaming Machine Rules is “When an internal lottery is performed and the conditional device is activated, the combination of symbols related to the conditional device is displayed. The requirement is that the maximum number of game medals or the like that can be acquired by a combination of symbols is acquired.
For this reason, the total winning combination constant s under the condition that the specified number of 3 sheets is not overlooked is
s = 1022 × 1 × 1/3; Chance role + 4000 × 1 × 3/3; Three-sheet selection role ALL
+ 37080 × 1 × 8/3; high payout choice + 4000 × 1 × 3/3; left of 3 choices + 4000 × 1 × 3/3; other than left of 3 choices ≈111220.66, r = 8978 ,
Eo = 111220.66 / (65536-8978) ≈1.9665 (about 196.65%). Therefore,
17500 game conversion inserted medals = 3 × 17500 = 52500 17500 game conversion acquired medals = 1.9665 × 3 × 17500≈103241.3

In addition, in the simulation test, if you hit RBB1 in the specified number of three games in general, you can display the combination of RBB1 action symbols in the winning game, and while RBB1 is working, it will end with more than 30 cards, but average the number of finished games in multiple ways With the simulated value you can expect about 17.47 games,
Number of inserted medals = 3 x 17.47 = 52.41
The number of medals earned = 0.6373 x 3 x 17.47 = 33.40, which is a sufficient medal reduction of 33.40-52.41 = -19.01 from the length of the number of continuations during RBB1 operation. The effect can be achieved.
Number of medals inserted by RBB1 operation during 17500 games = 52.41 × 17500 × 6446 / (65536-8978) ≈104531.7
The number of medals earned by RBB1 operation during 17500 games is 33.40 × 17500 × 6446 / (65536-8978) ≈66616.3.

Therefore, when the specified number is 3,
Total number of inserted medals = 52500 + 104531.7 = 170331.7
Total number of medals = 103241.3 + 666616.3 = 169857.6
The yield rate = 169857.6 / 170331.7 ≒ 1.082 (about 108.2%), and the predetermined upper limit of the yield rate specified in the fifth (1) b (nu) of the gaming machine rules Article 6 Attached Table It falls below 120% (1.2 times) and meets the rules. Also,
The ratio of items = 666616.3 / 169857.6 ≒ 0.3922 (about 39.22%), and the upper limit 60% (60%) specified in Article 5 Attached Table 5 (1) B Less than or equal to the rules.

Similarly, the total winning combination constant s under the condition that the specified number of two sheets is not dropped out is
s = 1022 × 1 × 1/2; Chance role + 4 × 1 × 3/2; Three-sheet selection role ALL
+ 37080 × 1 × 4/2; high payout option + 4000 × 1 × 3/2; left 3 option left + 4000 × 1 × 3/2; other than 3 left option = 86677, r = 8978
Eo = 86677 / (65536-8978) ≈1.5325 (about 153.25%). Therefore,
17500 game conversion inserted medals = 2 × 17500 = 35000 17500 game conversion acquired medals = 1.5325 × 2 × 17500≈53637.5

Also, in the simulation test, if you hit RBB2 in the normal number of 2 cards, you can display the combination of RBB2 operation symbols in the winning game, and while RBB2 is operating, it will end with more than 8 cards, but average the number of end games in multiple ways About 5.687 games can be expected with the simulated value,
Number of inserted medals = 3 x 5.687 = 17.06
Number of medals won = 0.6373 x 3 x 5.687 = 10.87, and medal reduction effect of 10.87--17.06 = -6.19 depending on the number of continuations during RBB2 operation .
Number of medals inserted by RBB2 operation during 17500 games = 17.06 x 17500 x 10442 / (65536-8978) ≒ 55119.7
The number of medals obtained by RBB2 operation during 17500 games is 10.87 × 17500 × 10442 / (65536-8978) ≈35120.2.

Therefore, when the specified number is 2,
Total number of inserted medals = 35000 + 55119.7 = 9019.7,
The total number of medals = 53637.5 + 35120.2 = 88757.7,
The yield rate = 88757.7 / 90119.7 ≈ 0.985 (approximately 98.5%), and the predetermined upper limit for the yield rate specified in Article 5 Attached Table 5 (1) B It falls below 120% (1.2 times) and meets the rules. Also,
The ratio of bonuses = 35120.2 / 88757.7 ≒ 0.3957 (39.57%), and the upper limit 60% (60%) prescribed in the gaming machine rules Article 6 Attached Table 5 (1) B (wo) Below, conforms to the rules.

  As described above, the number of game media that can be acquired in the game state during the operation of the accessory is less than the number of input game media, the so-called bonus specification type 1 special feature or the type continuous action device RBB1, related to the first type special feature. In combination with RBB2, AT net increase ≒ 2.8 cards / game high net increase AT can be realized appropriately and easily within the appropriate payout range exceeding the specified specified lower limit 55% and less than the specified upper limit 120%. .

  As shown in FIG. 8, reel indexes 1Li, 1Ci, 1Ri made of protrusions are integrated at predetermined angular positions on the outer circumferences of the reels 1L, 1C, 1R. Further, each reel index 1Li, 1Ci, 1Ri crosses when a symbol of symbol number 15, for example, passes a reference position for one frame determined at an arbitrary fixed rotation angle, for example, the upper stage in the display window 80, etc. Index sensors 11L, 11C, and 11R made of photo sensors are arranged at predetermined positions on the stationary member side.

  Note that the reference position does not necessarily coincide with the active line, and may be determined at the middle or lower level in the display window 80 or may be determined outside the display window 80. If the reference position and the active line are different, stop the design to be stopped so that the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed on the active line when the symbol to be stopped is stopped at the reference position. It will be. In addition, if the reel index is detected at least once every turn of the reel at an arbitrary fixed rotation angle, the reel index is replaced with a sensor that detects a protrusion integrated with the reel with a sensor, Any type may be used such as a sensor that detects a notch or the like of a disk integrated with a shaft of a stepping motor.

  As shown in FIG. 9A, each of the stepping motors 12L, 12C, and 12R (SM) for connecting the shaft SH that is the drive shaft to each of the reels 1L, 1C, and 1R has a large number of rotor teeth on the outer periphery of the iron core. Permanent magnet built-in type rotor Rm, and multiple sets of magnetic poles having a plurality of small stator teeth on the inner periphery of the magnetic pole, A phase, B phase, C phase (A bar phase (A reversed phase)), D phase (B bar) And a stator Sw wound around a phase (inversion phase of B), and supplying a one-phase excitation pulse for turning on one winding during steady rotation, one winding and adjacent The half-step angle is obtained by updating one step of the excitation pulse by 1-2 phase excitation that alternately repeats the step of supplying the two-phase excitation pulse for turning on the other windings every 1 interrupt time t = 1.49 ms. Displace by (one step angle by two step update). Further, forward rotation and reverse rotation are made possible by changing the step update direction of the excitation pulse.

  At the time of steady rotation, when a reel index crossed by each reel index 1Li, 1Ci, 1Ri is detected by each index sensor 11L, 11C, 11R, descending order management of the number of steps 32 of the symbol corresponding to the symbol number 15 as the base step step value together with the symbol number 15 The initial value 31 is set to start the excitation from one-phase excitation, and for every interrupt in which the excitation pulse is updated one step, the step counter values 31 to 30, 29,... Two-phase excitation, one-phase excitation, two-phase excitation, one-phase excitation, two-phase excitation, and so on are sequentially switched. At the next step update when the step counter becomes 0, the symbol number is set to 14, and the step counter value is set to the initial value 31 of the number of steps of the symbol corresponding to the symbol number 14, and step by step The counter value is updated from 31 to 30, 29,. For symbols with 30 steps, the value of the step counter is updated from the initial value 29 to 28,. The symbol number and step counter storage areas are secured in the RAM of the main controller MC for each reel 1L, 1C, 1R.

  The reel index is scheduled to be detected again at the time of the next interrupt step update when the symbol number 0 step counter becomes 0. For example, the reel index is detected exceeding a predetermined permissible time set for 10 interrupt time or the like. If there is not, a predetermined recovery process is restarted from the acceleration process as a reel rotation error, but if it is within the allowable time, the base step step value 31 is set together with the symbol number 15 when the reel index is detected. When the reel index is detected before the step counter of the symbol number 0 becomes 0, correction is performed to set the base step step value 31 together with the symbol number 15 when the reel index is detected. The stepping motor SM is rotated once by a step update of 504 times during steady rotation unless a so-called out-of-synchronization occurs, and the excitation pulse when detecting the physical reel index is one-phase excitation or two-phase. It can be fixedly specified as either excitation, and in this embodiment, it is specified as one-phase excitation.

  For a 16-frame reel with a maximum number of sliding frames of 3 frames, a total of 4 frames from the 0th frame to the 3rd frame following the symbol that has reached the reference position when each stop button 6L, 6C, 6R is pressed. The stop symbol will be determined from In this case, even when the stop button 6L, 6C, 6R is pressed at any timing, three symbols are 32 steps, one symbol is 30 steps, and the third frame furthest from the reference position is drawn. 1 interrupt for detection of stop operation by the stop button, 32 × 3 + 30 × 1 = 126 interrupts for drawing the third frame, 127 interrupts in total, so 1.49 ms × 127 = 189.23 ms Is the maximum time, and can satisfy the prescribed time of 190 ms until the stop set by the gaming machine rules.

  As shown in FIG. 9B, the stop pulse for stopping each symbol at the reference position is a period of time (for example, 201.15 ms corresponding to 135 interrupts) for each of the A-phase, B-phase, C-phase, and D-phase windings. ) All-phase excitation pulses that are turned on are used. The excitation pulse at the starting step number 31 at the time of detection of each reel index 1Li, 1Ci, 1Ri is specified as one-phase excitation, and the number of steps 32 and 30 to be unequal is set to an even number. Both the step number 32 and the step number 30 start with one-phase excitation and end with two-phase excitation, and the excitation pulse immediately before supplying the stop pulse by all-phase excitation is always two-phase excitation, which is smooth and beautiful You can stop.

  As shown in FIG. 9 [c], in the acceleration sequence for reaching the steady rotation from the stop, the excitation starts from the two-phase excitation pulse pattern immediately before the stop pulse by the all-phase excitation at the previous stop, and initially interrupts 42 times. Two-phase excitation with a long on-time of 62.58 ms, one-phase excitation with a 9-interrupt time of 13.41 ms in the next step update, two-phase excitation with an 11-interrupt time of 16.39 ms in the next step update, 1-phase excitation with 1 interrupt time of 1.49 ms in step update, 2-phase excitation with 4. interrupt time of 5.96 ms in next step update, 1-phase excitation with 1 interrupt time of 1.49 ms in next step update, next The on-time is gradually shortened, such as two-phase excitation with a 2-interrupt time of 2.98 ms in the step update of 1 step and one-phase excitation with a 1.49 ms interrupt time in the next step update. Reach steady rotation . After the time required for the acceleration process has elapsed, a predetermined stop prohibition period such as 50 ms is secured, and after the reel index is detected for the first time, the built-in LEDs 61, 62, 63 of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R are turned on. A stop operation by the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R can be accepted.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the control device CN incorporated in the gaming machine housing 8B transmits the main control device MC corresponding to the main board in the gaming machine rule, and transmits from the main control device MC according to the unidirectional communication specification. Peripheral control device NC corresponding to “peripheral board” in the gaming machine rules for receiving information to be received. The one-way communication specification refers to a communication specification that satisfies “not capable of receiving a signal transmitted by a peripheral board” defined in the gaming machine rules for the main board. The “sub-board” defined in the current game machine rules is included in the concept of the main board, and has been distinguished within the industry for a long time, such as the main side having functions that affect or may affect the game result. As for the relationship with the sub-side having no function, the main side is “main board”, that is, “main controller”, and the sub-side is “peripheral board”, that is, “peripheral controller”.

  The main controller MC includes a main CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. In the input port I1, each index sensor 11L, 11C, 11R, each stop button 6L, 6C, 6R, the bet button 3, the settlement button 4, the start lever 5, the insertion medal sensor 21 provided downstream of the medal slot 2, game machine Each signal of the payout medal sensor 23 provided at the exit of the medal payout device HP built in the housing 8B is input. From the output port O1, the built-in LEDs 61, 62, 63 of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R, the stepping motors 12L, 12C, 12R (SM) via the motor driver circuit Dr1, and the game via the LED driver circuit Dr2 The basic lamps 30, the medal blocker 22 for dropping medals inserted after the reel start via the solenoid driver circuit Dr3 to the medal tray 8G, the medal paying motor 24 of the medal paying device HP via the motor driver circuit Dr4, respectively. I have control.

  On the ROM of the main controller MC, an internal lottery means K for determining the winning combination by executing the internal lottery according to the specifications of FIGS. 3 to 7 when the start lever 5 is operated is constructed. Rotating cylinder) 1L, 1C, 1R is rotated and the rotation is stopped based on the operation of the corresponding stop button 6L, 6C, 6R, and the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination determined by the internal lottery on the effective line Control the rotation stopping device V1 and the rotation stopping device control means V1 which controls the rotation rotating device referred to in the second table (3) b) of the gaming machine rules Article 6 of the Rules of the gaming machine that allow the display. The reel control means V including the rotation stop device control means V2 is constructed.

  The rotation rotating device control means V1 accelerates the reels 1L, 1C, 1R to the normal rotation side after the operation of the start lever 5 and 4.1 seconds of the minimum game interval from the start of the previous game, and rotates normally. Let the number reach. During acceleration processing, prioritization according to the order of re-playing role> winning role (small role)> special role for all symbols on all reels 1L, 1C, 1R according to the winning combination determined by internal lottery In the case where the winning combination is a winning combination (small combination), the number priority for drawing in the high paying small combination with a large number of payouts and the number priority with priority drawing for the small combination with many kinds of combinations of symbols are made to correspond. Stop candidate search data that has been given priorities within the role is created on the RAM, and prepared for the logic operation of the subsequent stop control.

  Stop candidate search data, for example, if the winning combination is a re-gamer, each symbol of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R constituting a combination of symbols of the re-gamer related to the winning is displayed on the active line (upper middle line) In this case, 08H is recorded in hexadecimal notation on the symbol at the reference position (upper stage) and 01H is recorded on the other symbols. If the winning combination is a winning combination other than the elected winning combination, in accordance with the priority of the number, the standard when each symbol of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R constituting the combination of the winning combination related to winning will be displayed on the effective line The position symbol is 84H (the top 8 is a payout (8 payouts)) and the like, and the other symbols are 01H. If the winning combination is an optional combination, the symbols of the reels 1L, 1C, 1R constituting the combination of the symbols of the small combination related to the winning combination will be displayed on the effective line in order to correspond to the number priority. In addition, 24H (the top 2 is the product of the number of symbol types in the other columns) etc. are recorded in the reference position symbol, and 01H is recorded in the other symbols.

  If the winning combination is RBB1, the symbol of the reference position (upper row) when the left symbol "bar"-middle symbol "bar"-right symbol "grape" is displayed on the active line (upper middle line) is 02H. If the winning symbol is RBB2, the reference position when "Bar"-"Grape"-"Bar" will be displayed on the active line (upper middle line) The (upper) symbol is 02H and the other symbols are 01H. If there is no winning combination, 01H is recorded on all symbols. 01H indicates the lowest priority order that passively allows display.

  During RBB1, the stop candidate search data is recorded as “H” in association with “Bar”-“Bar”-“Grape”. In association with the symbols of the reels 1L, 1C, 1R constituting the combination of the symbols of the game role and the small role, the re-game role 08H, the small role 84H, 24H, etc., which are larger than 02H, are recorded in duplicate. The Similarly, in the inside of RBB2, 02H is recorded in association with “bar”-“grape”-“bar” in the stop candidate search data, but if it does not hit a replaying role or small role inside RBB2, it will not win Corresponding to the symbols of the reels 1L, 1C, 1R constituting the combination of the symbols of the replaying role and small role relating to the replaying role 08H, the small role 84H, 24H, etc., which are larger than 02H, are duplicated. Recorded. Thereby, the prioritization according to the role in the order of re-playing role> winning role (small role)> special role is maintained. In the present embodiment, the specification is such that there is no overlapping winning combination between the re-playing role and the winning combination (small role). However, if these winnings are duplicated, the maximum corresponding to the small role is replaced with 08H corresponding to the re-playing role. For example, F8H or the like larger than the value (84H or the like) is recorded.

  In the inside of RBB1 or RBB2, for example, if a small character that includes the “bar” of the left reel 1L in the symbol combination is hit, the “bar” of the left reel 1L is displayed on the active line. 84H + 02H = 86H, 24H + 02H = 26H, etc. are recorded on the symbol, and when a re-game player who includes “bar” in the symbol combination is hit, the “bar” on the left reel 1L will be displayed on the active line In this case, 08H + 02H = 0AH is recorded in the symbol of the reference position.

  As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when the inside of the RBB 2 hits the middle 1 of the high payout electing role, the left middle right is the correct pushing order, and when the pushing order is correct, the high paying role NML1 is won with priority on the number. . If the wrong answer is pushed to the left or right, whether the winning combination NML9 or NML12 is won with a probability of 1/2 with priority given to the number at the first stop and priority given to the number from the second stop It will be missed. In the case of middle left / right and middle right / left, the winning combination NML 13 or NML 16 is won with a probability of 1/2 or lost. In the case of right-left middle and right-middle left, it is determined whether the winning combination NML17 or NML20 is won with a probability of ½ or not.

  When the specified number is 3, the stop candidate search data that is initially created in correspondence with the number priority is 84H (the top 8 is the number of dividends) corresponding to the “plum” symbol of the left reel 1L and the “bar” of the left reel 1L. "Herry", "Blank 1" and "Blank 2" corresponding to each symbol 14H (the top one is the number of dividends), 84H corresponding to each symbol of "Replay" "Grape" on the middle reel 1C, Corresponding to each symbol of “bell” “bar” “cherry” “blank 1” “blank 2” of the middle reel 1C, one frame corresponding to each symbol of “replay” “grape” of the right reel 1R 84H on the top, 14H on one frame corresponding to each of the symbols "bar", "cherry", "blank 1" and "blank 2" on the right reel 1R, and 01H corresponding to the other symbols Become.

  When the specified number is 2, the stop candidate search data that is initially created in accordance with the priority of the number is 44H (the upper 4 is the number of dividends) corresponding to the “plum” symbol of the left reel 1L and the “bar” of the left reel 1L. ”16H corresponding to the symbol (lower 6 is the sum of 04H of small role and 02H of RBB2), 14H corresponding to each symbol of“ cherry ”“ blank 1 ”“ blank 2 ”of the left reel 1L, 44H corresponding to the “replay” symbol of the middle reel 1C, 46H corresponding to the “grape” symbol of the middle reel 1C (lower 6 is the sum of 04H of the small role and 02H of RBB2), 14H corresponding to each symbol of "Bell" "Bar" "Cherry" "Blank 1" "Blank 2", 44H on each frame corresponding to each symbol of "Replay" "Grape" on the right reel 1R , “Roll” on the right reel 1R 16H on the top of the frame corresponding to the pattern (lower 6 is the sum of 04H of the small role and 02H of RBB2) corresponding to each pattern of “cherry” “blank 1” “blank 2” of the middle reel 1C 14H is recorded on one frame and 01H is recorded in correspondence with other symbols.

  When the specified number is 3, the stop candidate search data that is initially created corresponding to the number priority is 44H (the upper 4 is the product of the number of symbol types in the other columns corresponding to the “plum” symbol of the left reel 1L. ) Corresponding to each symbol of “bar”, “cherry”, “blank 1”, “blank 2” on the left reel 1L, and 24H (the top 2 is the product of the number of symbol types in the other row) 44H corresponding to the "Bell" symbol of 1C, 24H corresponding to each symbol of "Replay", "Grape", "Bar", "Cherry", "Blank 1" and "Blank 2" of the middle reel 1C, 1R on the right reel 44H on top of each frame corresponding to the “Plum” symbol of the top, and one frame above corresponding to each of the “Replay”, “Grape”, “Bar”, “Cherry”, “Blank 1”, and “Blank 2” symbols on the right reel 1R. 24H to 01H corresponding to other symbols It made what was recorded.

  The stop candidate search data that is initially created corresponding to the number priority when the specified number is two is 44H corresponding to the “plum” symbol of the left reel 1L and 26H (corresponding to the “bar” symbol of the left reel 1L. The lower 6 is the sum of the small role 04H and the RBB2 02H) corresponding to the symbols “cherry” “blank 1” “blank 2” on the left reel 1L, and “bell” symbol on the middle reel 1C. 44H, 26H (lower 6 is the sum of 04H of small role and 02H of RBB2), and "Replay" "Bar" "Cherry" of medium reel 1C ”“ Blank 1 ”and“ Blank 2 ”corresponding to each symbol 24H, corresponding to the“ Plum ”symbol on the right reel 1R, 44H on one frame, and“ Bar ”symbol on the right reel 1R 26H (bottom) No. 6 is the sum of 04H of small role and 02H of RBB2) 24H on one frame corresponding to each pattern of “Replay” “Grape” “Cherry” “Blank 1” “Blank 2” on the right reel 1R , 01H is recorded corresponding to the other symbols.

  In the first stop, a total of four frames in the 0th frame (immediate stop), the 1st frame, the 2nd frame, and the 3rd frame on the upstream side of the symbol that has reached the reference position when the stop operation is detected. For subsequent symbols, based on the stop candidate search data created during the acceleration process, perform a logic operation to search for the highest symbol with the highest priority, and if there are multiple symbols with the same value, store them in the ROM in advance. By referring to the stop table defined in step 1, the only stop symbol with the highest pull-in priority is determined, and the timing at which the determined stop symbol reaches the reference position, that is, the symbol number of the stop symbol determined by the reference position symbol When the value of the step counter becomes the initial value 31 or 29 of the number of steps corresponding to the stop symbol, all-phase excitation or the like is performed on the reel stepping motor SM related to the first stop. And it supplies a stop pulse by.

  When the first stop is completed, during the stop operation interval period until the next stop button operation can be accepted (for example, for about 200 ms), the display is not subject to display according to the display result of the first stop. For the symbol and / or the number of symbol combination types to be changed, the stop candidate search data of the unstopped reel is rewritten to prepare for the second and subsequent stops.

  In the second stop, on the basis of the stop candidate search data rewritten after the first stop, the succeeding symbols of the same four frames that continue to the upstream side of the symbol that has reached the reference position when the stop operation is detected. By referring to the same logic operation or logic operation and the stop table, the only stop symbol with the highest drawing priority is determined, and the stop pulse is similarly supplied at the timing when the determined stop symbol reaches the reference position.

  When the second stop is completed, during the stop operation interval period until the last stop button operation can be accepted (for example, for about 200 ms), the display of the first stop and the second stop is displayed. In order to prepare for the third stop, the stop candidate search data of the unstopped reel is rewritten with respect to the symbols that are not the target and / or the symbols that are not kicked to prevent the completion of the winning combination and cannot be stopped.

  In the third stop, on the basis of the stop candidate search data rewritten after the second stop, the succeeding symbols of the same four frames that continue to the upstream side of the symbol that has reached the reference position when the stop operation is detected. By referring to the same logic operation or logic operation and the stop table, the only stop symbol that has the highest drawing priority and that does not complete the winning combination is determined, and the determined stop symbol is the reference position. Similarly, a stop pulse is supplied at the arrival timing. Thus, the stop of all reels 1L, 1C, 1R is completed, and the result of one game is derived.

  As shown in FIG. 11, for example, when the prescribed number is 3 in the RBB 2, it is assumed that a high payout winning combination left middle 1 (NML1 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 16 + 17 + 20) is hit and [1] left middle right push order is correct. The timing of pressing the stop button is not questioned, and the illustrated example is only an example. The same applies hereinafter. When the left stop button 6L is pressed, the grape symbol of symbol number 8 on the left reel 1L has reached the upper stage of the reference position, and the stop symbol is determined from the four frames following upstream of the grape symbol of symbol number 8. It will be. Since the highest number 84H is recorded in correspondence with the plum symbol of symbol number 5 from the stop candidate search data corresponding to the priority of the number of sheets applied in the correct pressing order, the plum symbol of symbol number 5 has two frames. When the symbol number on the RAM corresponding to the left reel 1L is 5, and the step counter reaches the initial value 31 of the number of steps 32 of the symbol number 5, the stop pulse is supplied. As a result, the plum symbol of symbol number 5 stops at an appropriate position on the upper stage of the left reel 1L.

  Second, when the middle stop button 6C is pressed, the bar symbol of symbol number 7 on the middle reel 1C has reached the upper stage of the reference position, and stops from the four frames following the symbol number 7 on the upstream side. The design will be determined. At the time after the completion of the first stop, the stop candidate search data for the middle reel is rewritten as 01H in 14H corresponding to the bell of symbol number 4. Since the uppermost 84H is recorded corresponding to the grape symbol of symbol number 6, the grape symbol of symbol number 6 slips 0 frames and immediately stops at the upper stage, and the symbol number on the RAM corresponding to the middle reel 1C is 6. A stop pulse is supplied when the step counter reaches the initial value 31 of the number 32 of steps of symbol number 6. Thereby, the grape symbol of symbol number 6 stops at an appropriate position on the upper stage of the middle reel 1C.

  When the third (last) right stop button 6R is pressed, the bar symbol of symbol number 7 on the right reel 1R has reached the upper stage of the reference position, and 4 following the bar symbol of symbol number 7 upstream. The stop symbol is determined from the frame. At the time after the completion of the second stop, the stop candidate search data for the right reel is rewritten as 01H in 14H on one bar corresponding to symbol number 7. In addition, 14H on one frame corresponding to the plum of symbol number 5 is rewritten to 00H which is prohibited to stop. When the bell symbol of symbol number 4 on the top of the plum of symbol number 5 stops at the top, NML4 "Plum"-"Grape"-"Plum" which is not won is displayed on the upper and middle active lines This is because it is an unfair prize. Since the top 84H is recorded in the Plum symbol of Symbol No. 5 on the top frame corresponding to the grape symbol of Symbol No. 6, the Plum symbol of Symbol No. 5 slides one frame and is pulled up to the upper reel. A stop pulse is supplied when the symbol number on the RAM corresponding to 1R is 5, and the step counter reaches the initial value 31 of the number of steps 32 of symbol number 5. As a result, the plum symbol of symbol number 5 stops at an appropriate position on the upper stage of the right reel 1R, and the grape symbol of symbol number 6 stops at an appropriate position of the middle stage. Therefore, “Plum”-“Grape”-“Grape” is displayed on the upper and middle active lines, and the 8-piece NML1 wins, and 8 medals are paid out.

  As shown in FIG. 12, it is assumed that [2] the right and left middle incorrect answers are pushed. In this case, for the left reel 1L related to the first stop, in accordance with the number priority, the plum symbol of symbol number 5 stops at an appropriate position on the upper stage of the left reel 1L in this example, as in FIG. The incorrect answer is determined when the second stop of the right stop button 6R is detected, and the second stop is switched to the number priority.

  When the right stop button 6R is pressed during the second stop, it is assumed that the bell symbol of symbol number 8 on the right reel 1R has reached the upper stage of the reference position. At the time after the first stop is completed, not only the number priority but also the stop candidate search data based on the number priority is rewritten, 24H on one frame corresponding to grape of symbol number 6 becomes 01H, on one frame corresponding to plum corresponding to symbol number 5 Each of 44H is rewritten to 01H. Since the top 24H is recorded in the grape symbol of symbol number 6 on one frame corresponding to the bar symbol of symbol number 7, the grape symbol of symbol number 6 slides one frame and is pulled up, and corresponds to the right reel 1R The stop pulse is supplied when the symbol number on the RAM to be processed is 6, and the step counter reaches the initial value 31 of the number of steps 32 of the symbol number 6. As a result, the grape symbol of symbol number 6 stops at an appropriate position on the upper stage of the right reel 1R, and the bar symbol of symbol number 7 stops at an appropriate position of the middle reel.

  When the middle stop button 6C is pressed at the time of the third stop, it is assumed that the bell symbol of symbol number 8 of the middle reel 1C has reached the upper stage of the reference position. At the time after completion of the second stop, the stop candidate search data by the number priority for the middle reel is 24H corresponding to symbol No. 7 to 14H, 24H corresponding to grape No. 6 to 01H, and symbol No. 4 44H corresponding to the bell is rewritten to 01H. Since the highest 14H is recorded in correspondence with the bar symbol of symbol number 7, the bar symbol of symbol number 7 slips 0 frames and immediately stops at the upper stage, and the symbol number on the RAM corresponding to the middle reel 1R is 7. A stop pulse is supplied when the step counter reaches the initial value 31 of the number 32 of steps of symbol number 7. As a result, the bar symbol of symbol number 7 stops at the appropriate position on the upper stage of the middle reel 1C. Therefore, “Plum”-“Bar”-“Bar” is displayed on the upper and middle active lines, and the single NML 12 wins and one medal is paid out. If the bar symbol of symbol number 7 has already reached the reference position (upper stage) when the middle stop button 6C is pressed, one combination is missed.

  As shown in FIGS. 13, 14, 15, and 16, of the incorrect answer push order in the middle of the left of the high payout option combination, the first operation other than the left stop button 6 </ b> L is operated [3] In the case of [4] middle right / left, [5] right / left middle, and [6] right / middle left, stop control is performed from the first stop with the number priority. In the example of FIG. 13, the single winning combination NML 13 wins, in the example of FIG. 14 the single winning combination NML 16 wins, in the example of FIG. 15 the single winning combination NML 20 wins, and in the example of FIG. 16 the single winning combination NML 17 wins. Each one medal is paid out. In addition, at the time of the third stop, if the stop operation is performed at a timing at which the specific drawing symbols of the first or second area to be displayed are not drawn, they will be missed. When the specified number is 2, the stop candidate search data is recorded as 06H in the lower 4 bits in accordance with carry-over RBB2 corresponding to the left symbol “bar”, the middle symbol “grape”, and the right symbol “bar”. However, data with higher priority or higher priority is present in the four frames that determine the stop symbol, or it will be won by rewriting. The combination of the RBB2 operation symbols is not uniform.

  In addition, when there are a plurality of the same highest digits in the four frames for determining the stop symbols, refer to the stop table prepared in advance on the ROM, and select one of the highest symbols. Will be determined as a stop symbol. In addition, although the prioritization according to the role according to the order of re-playing role> winning role (small role)> special role is performed in the lower 4 bits, it may be performed in the upper 4 bits. In the example of FIG. 10, when the correct answer pressing order is in the middle left and right, NML1 is won with priority given to the number of correct answers, and in the incorrect answer pressing order, the correct answer is found at the first stop point, but the incorrect answer is found at the second stop. When left and right, the first stop is given priority to the number of cards, and the second stop is given priority to the number of NML9 or NML12. At the time of the first stop, the NML 1 is won by the number priority, the number priority from the second stop, and the correct answer at the time of the first stop in the order of pushing the incorrect answers, but the incorrect answer is revealed at the second stop. In the case of, the winning of NML9 or NML12 may be missed with priority on the number from the beginning as in the other incorrect answer pressing order. Further, in the logic operation, the stop candidate search data as described above is not used, and the drawing-in and kick-out processing according to the number priority or the number priority similar to the above is performed using control data other than this. Of course.

  As shown in FIG. 8, on the ROM of the main controller MC, the medal payout means P for paying out medals of a predetermined number of payouts if the game result is a win, and the medals for the next game are the same if the game result is a re-game operation. Automatic medal insertion means Q that automatically inserts in a prescribed number, game state transition means J that shifts the gaming state shown in FIG. 5 if the game result is accompanied by a game state transition, and freeze lottery executed following the internal lottery (here This means that the reels 1L, 1C, and 1R are reversed at the start of the current game or at the start of the next game based on a predetermined probability determined for each winning role by interrupting the original game progress and performing a predetermined performance. Freeze lottery means F for determining whether or not a predetermined spinning effect such as “reverse rotating bar alignment” that rotates and automatically aligns the bar symbols one by one, and executes the spinning effect related to that winning The drum effect execution means G, the symbols arranged by the spinning drum effect are separated in the direction of rotation, and the same symbol is rotated almost horizontally, so that it is easy to learn the reel rotation cycle, that is, the so-called timing of the heading. In order to prevent this, random weight means W for inserting a random delay time at the time of sequential reel start is constructed.

  In addition, with a limited number of three, AT operation determining means H1 for confirming the operation of the assist time AT for informing the correct pushing order of the choice combination etc. under a predetermined condition and activating it at a predetermined start timing, AT at the predetermined additional timing AT addition determination means H2 for extending the operation, AT continuation management means H3 for managing from the start to the end of the AT, AT instruction information including the correct answer pushing order such as an option and the like, and an AT instruction to be output to the peripheral control device NC The information output means H4 is constructed.

  For example, when it is decided to insert at the start of the next game of “a set of counter rotating bars” that will be won with a predetermined probability, for example, about 1/3, when winning a chance role with internal drawing and winning a chance role with freezing drawing, Or, when you hit a rare role lip or BAR target lip with internal lottery, or when the number of games counted from the end of the previous AT reaches a predetermined number of games, for example 1000 games, confirm the operation of AT and play games one after another The AT is activated after a predetermined presentation period such as from. The AT, for example, starts from the opening attack of the initial specialization zone, and adds a net increase or the like during the AT every predetermined game period such as 5 or 10 games for 20 to 500. After the opening attack, 50 to 1000 sheets are added when the chance combination is won, and the AT is terminated when the remaining net increase is 0. The AT instruction information includes indirect information such as a winning area number that can specify the correct answer pressing order, in addition to direct information such as “left middle right” in the correct answer pressing order of the winning combination.

  The peripheral control device NC includes a sub CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. Transmission information from the main controller MC and a signal of the jog dial JD are input to the input port I2. The reel back lamps BL1 to 9 that illuminate the nine symbols facing the display window 80 from the output port O2 through the lamp driver circuit Dr5 from the back of the reel bands 10L, 10C, and 10R, and the decorative lamp through the LED driver circuit Dr6. 88 controls the liquid crystal display device 70 via the LCD driver circuit Dr7 and the speakers 91 to 94 via the power amplifier circuit Dr9.

  The transmission information from the main control device MC, that is, the reception information of the peripheral control device NC includes medal insertion information including operation information of the bet button 3, reel start information including operation information of the start lever 5, winning flag information by internal lottery, Operation information of stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R, game result information, game state information, freeze and rotation effect information, AT operation confirmation and activation information, AT instruction information, AT addition information, AT end information, error information, etc. Various information to be detected or determined or executed by the control device MC is included.

  On the ROM of the peripheral controller NC, the navigation in accordance with the AT instruction information output from the AT instruction information output means H4 to the liquid crystal display device 70 based on the received information from the main controller MC, for example, the correct push order is “left If "middle right" is displayed, the navigation means X1 displays "123" or the like corresponding to the stop button position, and the voice indicating whether the stop button to be operated from the speakers 91 to 94 is left, middle or right in conjunction with the display of the navigation means X1. The voice navigation means X2 and the effect symbols 7L, 7C, and 7R that are notified in the above are displayed in a variable manner or stopped, and the development of the moving image that is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 70 is changed according to the gaming state, the spinning effect, the precursor effect, the AT period, etc. The effect display means Y1 to be displayed and the sound effect output means Y2 to output sound effects and BGM from the speakers 91 to 94 are constructed in conjunction with this.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the operation of the AT is determined when, for example, it is determined that insertion at the start of the next game of “reverse rotation bar alignment” is determined by the internal lottery and the freezing lottery. The second game starts with a spinning effect of “reverse rotation bar alignment”, and all reels 1L, 1C, 1R rotate at a low speed and stop in order of right reel 1R, middle reel 1C, left reel 1L (temporary stop). After the predetermined temporary stop time has elapsed or the start lever 5 has been operated again, the random weight means W inserts a random delay time in the range of 0 to 747.98 ms in increments of 2.98 ms. Then, the left reel 1L, the middle reel 1C, and the right reel 1R are sequentially accelerated, and after reaching the constant speed rotation of all the reels, the effect symbols are linked to the stop of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R by the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R. 7L, 7C, and 7R are aligned with the same character design, and a congratulatory voice congratulatory message is output. In the third game, an AT is activated from the opening attack along with a voice message “Please enjoy the addition”. In the second game, the bar symbols that have been gathered by the spinning effect will be scattered in the direction of rotation due to the insertion of a random delay time, and induce a play that is originally unnecessary and lacks fairness as a learning period for timing the timing. In this case, it is possible to effectively entertain the player that the production symbols are aligned with the stop display of replay 1 (REP1).

  As shown in FIG. 18, the number of winning values for RBB1 is 6445, the number of winning values for RBB2 is 1, and the number of RBB2 is extracted with a very low probability when the number is 3 and the number is 2 In general, the number of winning values for RBB2 may be 10441, the number of winning values for RBB1 may be 1, and RBB1 may be extracted with a very low probability when the specified number is 2. In this case, there is no unjustified area inside the specified number 3 RBB1, inside the specified number 2 RBB1, inside the specified number 3 RBB2, inside the specified number 2 RRB2, and even if it is omitted, RBB1 or RBB2 Because it is a full hit specification that cannot display the combination of operation symbols, it is not possible to arrange the combination of the operation items of the actors, and there is no transition from inside RBB1 to RBB1 operation, and transition from inside RBB2 to RBB2 operation. In addition, the same operational effects as the above-described embodiment are obtained.

In the above embodiment, the first special combination RBB1 and the second special combination RBB2 are used as the special combination, but the first special combination RBB1 may be used alone. Moreover, although the bonus reduced using the accessory continuous action apparatus which concerns on a 1st type special combination was comprised, you may comprise the bonus reduced using a 1st type special combination. Further, the AT operation or the like is determined by the main control device MC, but may be determined by the peripheral control device SC.
The swing type gaming machine is originally used for the pachinko shop business in Article 2, Paragraph 1, Item 7 of the Law Concerning Regulation of Customs Business and Optimization of Business, etc. Machines are not limited to this, but slot machines used for business operations in stores, etc. of Article 2, Paragraph 1, Item 8 of the Act, arcade game machines that are not subject to the regulation of the Act, and reels are expressed with images etc. It can also be applied to simulation game machines. In the above description, it goes without saying that the probability, number, combination of symbols, etc. are merely examples.
