Description

  It relates to pachinko machines.

  The most popular pachinko gaming machine is a symbol called “main game symbol (special symbol)” on the 7-segment display, etc., when a game ball enters the main game start port. Is displayed in a variable manner, and when the main game symbol is in a predetermined mode (for example, “7”), it is called a so-called “digital patch” of a type that shifts to a special game that is more profitable for the player than the normal game state. Model (conventional “first-class game machine”).

  By the way, many pachinko gaming machines of this type are equipped with an accessory called an ordinary electric accessory at the main game start port so that a game ball can easily enter the main game start port. ing. And when it will be in a specific game state, it will be easy to open | release the said normal electric accessory, and it is comprised so that the entrance to the starting port for main games may become easy. Specifically, if there is an auxiliary game start port and a game ball enters the auxiliary game start port, whether or not to execute the easy-entry state is determined (whether it is a winning symbol or a lost symbol). May be determined). Then, after the auxiliary game identification information fluctuates for a predetermined time, the result of the lottery determination is displayed. Then, when the winning symbol is displayed, it becomes an easy-to-enter state where the ordinary electric accessory is opened (or opened / closed) for a predetermined time.

  Here, many pachinko machines have a “first state (auxiliary game side normal game state)” that is unlikely to easily enter a ball and a “second state (auxiliary game side) that is more likely to enter a ball than the first state. Specific game state) ”. The easy entry state is realized by a combination of the following three elements. As the first element, the “probability game side low probability lottery state” in which the probability of winning or failing whether or not to execute the easy entry state (which may be the winning probability of the winning symbol) is a predetermined probability, and the auxiliary There is an “auxiliary game side high probability lottery state” which is a higher probability than the success / failure lottery probability in the game side low probability lottery state. The second factor is that the change time of the auxiliary game side identification information is a predetermined time (an average time based on the selection rate) and the “auxiliary game side identification information non-short state” and the auxiliary game side identification information non-short state There is an “auxiliary game side identification information short state” which is a variation time (average time based on the selection rate) shorter than the predetermined time. The third factor is that the easy-entry state is a predetermined time (average time based on the selection rate) “easy-entry state non-extended state” and more than the predetermined time of the easy-entry state non-extended state There is an “easy entry state extended state” where the easy entry state continues for a long time.

Form to carry out

  First, the meaning of each term in the claims and the specification will be explained. The meaning of each term is not particularly limited, but will be described by way of example for ease of understanding. First, “entering a ball” includes not only a winning in which a winning ball is paid out but also a passage to a “through chucker” in which no winning ball is paid out. The “identification information” may be in any form as long as the type of information can be identified through the five senses (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.). For example, visual information includes shapes such as numbers, letters, designs, etc. And the like (for example, a main game symbol or auxiliary game symbol managed on the main control device side, or a decoration symbol related to a production game managed on the sub control device side). The “winning easy state” refers to a state in which game balls can flow in or can easily flow in, and the “winning non-easy state” refers to a state in which gaming balls cannot flow in or a state in which gaming balls cannot flow in easily. Here, for example, in the configuration of a general big prize opening (so-called attacker), the open state = easy-to-win state and the closed state = non-easy-to-win state. Further, for example, in a configuration in which the rod-shaped member provided in the big prize opening protrudes toward the player side and a state retracted toward the player side (so-called velo-type attacker), the protruding state = The winning state is easy, and the retracted state is the non-winning state. “Random number” is a random number used in a lottery (lottery by an electronic computer) to determine some game content in a pachinko game machine, and includes a pseudo-random number in addition to a random number in a narrow sense (for example, a hard- Random numbers and soft random numbers as pseudo-random numbers). For example, as the main game random numbers, “winning random numbers (random numbers for winning / failing lottery)” related to the transition of special games, “variation mode determining random numbers” for determining the variation mode (or variation time) of the identification symbol, stop A “symbol determined random number” for determining a symbol, a “successed symbol determined random number” for determining whether or not to shift to a specific game (for example, a probability variation game) after a special game, and the like can be given. The auxiliary game random number may include a “symbol determined random number” that determines a stop symbol {however, this is merely an example, and in addition to the above-described symbol determined random number, or in place of this random number, “Winning random number” for determining whether or not to enter the entering state, “Variation mode determining random number” for determining the variation aspect (or variation time) of the identification symbol, the duration of the easy entry state and the easy entry state Any one or any combination of “easy-to-enter ball state determination random numbers” for determining an execution mode (for example, an open mode, an open / close mode) may be included}. The “variable member” has at least a first position (when the variable member is in the position, the main game start port can enter the ball) and a second position (when the variable member is in the position, the main game start The displacement mode is not particularly limited as long as the mouth is displaceable (becomes impossible or difficult to enter). As a displacement mode, a variable member that is a position in which the first position is in an open state and a position in which the second position is in a closed state {e.g., two members opposed to each other, each of which is pivotally supported at the lower end, One (right when viewed from the player) is clockwise, the other (left when viewed from the player) is the “first position” moved counterclockwise, the one moves counterclockwise and the other moves clockwise The so-called well-known “electric tulip”} that can be used as the “second position”} or the position where the first position protrudes toward the player and the second position is retracted with respect to the player A variable member at a certain position (for example, a well-known “velo electric accessory”) can be mentioned. Furthermore, as the position of the variable member, not only the first position and the second position, but also one or a plurality of positions where the game ball can easily enter than the first position, and the game ball is less likely to enter than the second position. A mode in which one or a plurality of positions can be taken is also included. Here, in the present invention, this difference in position may be used instead of the “easy entry game time state” (that is, easy entry game time first state → easy entry game position first state, easy entry game) Time second state → easy entry game position second state) or “easy entry game time state” may be combined (ie, “easy entry game time state” + “easy entry game position state”) ). For example, in the case of the former, the second easy-to-enter game position is not limited to one position, as long as the game ball is easier to enter than the first easy-to-enter game position. , 1st state (opening angle 0), 2nd state 1 (opening angle 30 degrees), 2nd state 2 (opening angle 60 degrees). In the latter case, the easy entry game time / position 2 state is only a combination of one time and one position as long as the game ball is easier to enter than the easy entry game time / position 1 state. First, combination of different time and position {for example, first state (opening angle 60 degrees, opening time 0.2 seconds), second state 1 (opening angle 60 seconds, opening time 0.3 seconds), second It may be configured from state 2 (opening angle 90 degrees, opening time 0.5 seconds). In addition, the easy entry game mode in one easy entry game includes a mode in which the variable member continues to open and a mode in which the variable member opens and closes multiple times. It is within the scope of the present invention to make such a difference between the modes “different states”. For example, the mode in which X seconds are kept open is different from the mode in which Y seconds are repeated Z times (Y × Z = X seconds), although the total value of specific times in one easy-to-enter ball game is the same. It is good also as an easy entry game state. Even when the total time for the specific time is the same, the open mode is usually more advantageous than the open / close mode. In the above-described example, when the total value of the specific times is X seconds, it is usually advantageous that Z is small. It is not necessary to use all these random numbers when determining the contents of the variation mode, the contents of the definite identification information, etc., and it is sufficient to use at least one random number that is the same or different from each other. In addition, in the claims and in the present specification, the number of random numbers may be displayed in the form of a random number or a plurality of random numbers. Random numbers acquired by a single entry into the ball are referred to as one (ie, in the above example, a random number bundle of winning random number + variation mode determining random number + design determining random number ... Called random numbers). Further, for example, a kind of random number (for example, a winning random number) may also serve as another kind of random number (for example, a symbol determination random number). The “average time” refers to an average time based on the selection frequency (for example, when the selection rate at a variation time of 1 second is 10% and the selection rate at a variation time of 5 seconds is 90%, the average time is 4. 6 seconds). “To be in the auxiliary gaming part side gaming state advantageous to the player” means that the opening time of the variable member per unit time is increased. “Being in the auxiliary gaming part side gaming state disadvantageous for the player” means that the opening time of the variable member per unit time is reduced.

  The following embodiment is a model in which two conventional type 1 pachinko gaming machines are mixed (type 1 type 1 complex machine). However, the first type first type multi-function machine according to the present embodiment is not limited in any way, and a pachinko gaming machine having a configuration in which the entrance easy state of the start opening is different {for example, a pachinko gaming machine (for example, the conventional first type It is also within the scope of the present invention when it is applied to a seed, a second type, a third type, a general electric role, etc.)}. In addition, this form is only an example, the location and function where each means exists, the order of each step regarding various processes, the timing of flag on / off, the name of the means responsible for each step, etc. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. In addition, the above-described embodiments and modified examples should not be understood as being limited to being applied to specific items, and may be in any combination. For example, it should be understood that a modification example of an embodiment is a modification example of another embodiment, and even if one modification example and another modification example are described independently, there is the modification example. It should be understood that a combination of the modified example and another modified example is also described. In the present embodiment, there are a lottery table and a reference table for various tables, but these are not limited, and the lottery table may be a reference table or vice versa.

  Next, the success / failure lottery means 1135 determines the transition to the special game when the result of the success / failure lottery is a big hit or a small hit (for example, the special game execution permission flag is internally turned on). Means 1135a, a success / failure lottery table 1135b that is referred to when performing the winner / rejection lottery, an electric accessory release availability determination means 1135c that determines whether or not to open the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112, 2 has a lottery table 1135d for determining whether or not to open the electric winning combination, which is referred to when the lottery is opened. Hereinafter, the lottery table 1135b for determining whether or not the lottery for special game is referred to and the lottery table 1135d for determining whether or not the electric component is released for reference when the lottery for opening the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is described in detail. To do.

First, the success / failure lottery table 1135b referred to at the time of the special game success / failure lottery, the first main game success / failure lottery table 1135b-1 referred to when performing the success / failure lottery regarding the first main game symbol, And a second main game success / failure lottery table 1135b-3 which is referred to when performing the success / failure lottery regarding the two main game symbols. In the present embodiment, the big hit and the small hit are configured in the same table. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the big hit and the small hit may be determined using different tables. Here, Table 1 is an example of the success / failure lottery table 1135b. In addition, the probability of the big hit and the small hit in the following is an example to the last.

Next, Table 2 shows an example of an electric player opening / rejecting lottery table 1135d referred to in the open lottery of the second main game start opening electric player 2112. Here, as can be seen from the table, in the present embodiment, the table to be referred to is different depending on whether or not the auxiliary game probability change flag is ON, and the case where the auxiliary game probability change flag is ON. However, it is configured with a high probability of winning the opening of the electric utility item. As in this example, the chance of winning is higher (for example, 50% or more, more preferably 90% or more) at the time of probability change, and is almost not won in normal times (for example, 30% or less, more preferably 10%). The following is preferred. By configuring in this way, even if the auxiliary game information fluctuates at the time of the end of the special game (in this situation, the fluctuation based on the normal lottery table), the special game state is entered after the end of the special game. It can be almost guaranteed that the change result is lost at the time of transition (by this, before the game state is notified on the sub-side after the special game is over, the player can check the game state by looking at the state of the electric accessory. It ’s easier to keep track of it).

  Next, the symbol content determination means 1140 is based on the acquired first main game side random number (particularly, the first main game symbol determination random number and the first main game variation mode determination random number), and the stop symbol related to the first main game symbol. The first main game content determination means 1141 for determining the variation mode (variation time, etc.) and the acquired second main game side random number (particularly, the second main game symbol determination random number and the second main game variation mode determination random number) Based on the second main game content determination means 1142 for determining the stop symbol and the variation mode (variation time, etc.) of the second main game symbol, and the acquired auxiliary game side random number (especially the auxiliary game symbol determination random number and the auxiliary game variation mode) And auxiliary game content determining means 1143 for determining a stop symbol of the auxiliary game symbol based on the determined random number). Hereinafter, each means will be described in detail.

  First, the first main game content determination unit 1141 (second main game content determination unit 1142) is referred to when determining a stop symbol or a variation mode related to the first main game symbol (second main game symbol). 1 main game content determination lottery table 1141a (second main game content determination lottery table 1142a). The first main game content determination lottery table 1141a (second main game content determination lottery table 1142a) is referred to when determining the stop symbol of the first main game symbol (second main game symbol). 1 main game stop symbol determination lottery table 1141a-1 (second main game stop symbol determination lottery table 1142a-1) and first main game symbol (second main game symbol) variation mode (variation time) is determined A first main game variation mode determination lottery table 1141a-2 (second main game variation mode determination lottery table 1142a-2) to be referred to. These are described in detail below.

First, Table 3 shows an example of the first main game stop symbol determination lottery table 1141a-1 and the second main game stop symbol determination lottery table 1142a-1. As can be seen from the following example, in the present embodiment, there are a plurality of jackpot symbols. As will be described later, the profit state at the time of the special game and the game state after the special game are determined based on the type of the symbol, the game state, and the like (this will be described later).

Next, Table 4 shows an example of the first main game variation mode determination lottery table 1141a-2 and the second main game variation mode determination lottery table 1142a-2. In the present embodiment, the table configurations of both are the same, so they are summarized. As can be seen from the table, in the table at the time of the main game short game (the lower part of the table), a relatively short variation time is selected as compared with the table at the time of the non-main game short game (the upper part of the table). It is comprised so that. That is, under the situation where the main game is in the short game state, the variation time of the main game symbol is relatively shortened. In addition, this example is only an example, and may be configured such that different variation modes are selected according to the number of reserved balls (for example, when there are three or four holds at the time of holding digestion) Or a short variation time may be selected).

  Next, the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 has an auxiliary game content determination lottery table 1143a that is referred to when determining a stop symbol or a variation mode related to the auxiliary game symbol. Further, the auxiliary game content determination lottery table 1143a includes the auxiliary game stop symbol determination reference table 1143a-1 referred to when determining the stop symbol of the auxiliary game symbol, and the variation mode (variation time) of the auxiliary game symbol. And an auxiliary game variation mode determination reference table 1143a-2 that is referred to when the determination is made. Hereinafter, each table will be described with reference to the table.

First, Table 5 shows an example of the auxiliary game stop symbol determination reference table 1143a-1. As can be seen from this table, in the present embodiment, when winning is determined based on a random number on the auxiliary game side (winning random number), a predetermined winning symbol “7” is assigned, while when a loss is determined. Is configured to be assigned a predetermined lose symbol “-”.

Next, Table 6 shows an example of the auxiliary game variation mode determination reference table 1143a-2. As shown in this example, when the auxiliary game symbol fluctuates in a situation where the auxiliary game short time flag is on, it is configured to fluctuate for a short time compared to the situation in which the flag is off ( For example, variation time T _X = 1 second, variation time T _Y = 30 seconds).

  Next, the display control means 1150 controls the first main game symbol display unit 2130 of the first main game symbol display device 2130 to stop and display after changing the first main game symbol for a predetermined time. On the game symbol control means 1151 and the second main game symbol display unit 2231 of the second main game symbol display device 2230, the second main game symbol is controlled to stop and display after changing the second main game symbol for a predetermined time. Control means 1152 and auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 for controlling to stop display after changing the auxiliary game symbols for a predetermined time on the auxiliary game symbol display unit 2421 of the auxiliary game symbol display device 2420. .

  Here, the first main game symbol control means 1151 further includes first main game symbol change time management means 1151a for managing the change time according to the change mode determined by the first main game content determination means 1141. doing. The first main game symbol variation time management means 1151a further includes a first main game symbol variation management timer 1151a-1 (decrement counter) that can be cleared to zero. Next, the second main game symbol control means 1152 further has second main game symbol change time management means 1152a for managing the change time according to the change mode determined by the second main game content determination means 1142. doing. The second main game symbol variation time management means 1152a further includes a second main game symbol variation management timer 1152a-1 (decrement counter) that can be cleared to zero. Further, the auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 has auxiliary game symbol variation time management means 1154a for managing the variation time of the auxiliary game symbols on the auxiliary game symbol display unit 2421 of the auxiliary game symbol display device 2420. . The auxiliary game symbol variation time management means 1154a further includes an auxiliary game symbol variation management timer 1154a-1 capable of measuring time.

  Next, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 determines whether or not the condition for performing the process of opening / closing the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 of the second main game start opening 2110 is satisfied. Condition determining means 1161, a reference table 1163 for determining the opening time of the second main game starting port 2110, and a second reference table 1163 for determining the opening time of the second main game starting port 2110. An electric accessory opening time management timer 1162 for managing an opening time of the main game start opening electric accessory 2112; and an electric accessory opening / closing manner determining means 1164 for determining an opening / closing manner of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112; ,have.

Here, Table 7 shows an example of the electric accessory release time determination reference table 1163. As can be seen from the table, in the present embodiment, the flag relating to the opening time of the electric accessory (open extension flag) has a plurality of flag types of open extension flags A to D, and is turned on. Based on the opening extension flag type, the time value of the electric accessory opening time is determined. (In this example, the release extension flag A ON = T _L1 , the release extension flag B ON = T _{L2, the} release extension flag C ON = T _{L3, the} release extension flag D ON = T _L4 , and the release extension flags A to D are all off. = T _S ). It should be noted that the time value of the electric accessory release time set for each release extension flag is not particularly limited. In this example, the time value is set such that T _L1 > T _L2 > T _L3 > T _L4 > T _S ( For example, T _L1 = 5 seconds, T _L2 = 3 seconds _, T _L3 = 1 second _, T _L4 = 0.3 seconds, T _S = 0.2 seconds)}. In addition, in this embodiment, as an aspect which opens and closes an electric accessory, it is comprised so that only opening operation | movement may be performed only for predetermined time, However, It is not limited to this. In that case, the opening / closing operation may be performed a plurality of times within a predetermined time as well as the opening operation for a predetermined time. For example, when the release extension flag A is on, the opening operation is performed for a predetermined time (in this example, 5 seconds), and a plurality of opening / closing operations (for example, 2.5 seconds of opening / closing operations are performed within the predetermined time). An example in which any of the modes of performing (twice) is determined by lottery can be given.

  Next, the special game control means 1170 determines whether or not the conditions for shifting to the special game (high profit special game, low profit special game, real prize ball non-special game) are satisfied. If the condition determination means 1171 for determining whether or not the special game execution permission flag is ON and the special game transition condition is satisfied, the contents of the special game (specifically, A special game content determination means 1172 for setting a special prize-related information temporary storage means 1191c) and a first big prize prize opening 2120 or a second big prize prize opening 2220). Special game execution means 1173 for executing a special game in an open state under a predetermined condition, and time management of various processes related to the special game (for example, the first big prize winning port 2120 and the second big prize winning port 2220 And a special game time management means 1174 for performing inter-closing).

  The special game time management means 1174 further includes a round execution timer 1174a for managing the round time. The special game content determination unit 1172 further includes a special game content reference table 1172a that is referred to when specifying the content of the special game to be set in the special game related information temporary storage unit 1191c.

Here, Table 8 is an example of the special game content reference table 1172a. As can be seen from this table, the winning symbols “7A and 7B” are high-profit special games that can win many balls. On the other hand, “5A, 5B” is a low-profit special game in which only fewer balls can be obtained than a high-profit special game. In terms of design values, the cumulative number of payouts for the high profit special game is A (in this example, the maximum number of winnings for 1R = 10, the number of R = 16R, the number of paying out balls = 14 balls). Thus, 10 × 16 × 14 = 2240), and the cumulative number of low-profit special games scheduled to be paid out is B (in this example, the maximum number of winnings of 1R = 10, the number of R = 2R, the number of winning balls = 15) Since it is a sphere, when 10 × 2 × 15 = 300), B / A is designed to be equal to or greater than a predetermined value C {eg, 1/8 or greater (in this example, 1 / approximately 7.5)}. ing. Furthermore, “1A, 1B, 3A, 3B, 2A, 2B, 4A, 4B” is a real prize-ball-free special game in which almost no ball can be obtained. Also, in the case of the winning symbol “7A, 7B” and the winning symbol “1A, 1B, 3A, 3B”, the opening time is different (the former is 30 seconds, the latter is 0.5 seconds), but it is kept open during the round. Common in that the game is executed. On the other hand, in the case of a winning symbol “2A, 2B, 4A, 4B” (small hit), a special game with an open pattern that opens and closes during one round is executed. As described above, when the hit symbol “1A, 1B, 3A, 3B” and the hit symbol “2A, 2B, 4A, 4B” are compared, the opening / closing time (0. 25 seconds) is the same point and the number of times of opening and closing is the same (the former is one opening and closing per round twice in two rounds, the latter is two opening and closing per round twice in one round), so it looks Will have a special game with exactly the same opening time and opening pattern. In addition, in the winning symbol “1A, 1B, 3A, 3B” and the winning symbol “2A, 2B, 4A, 4B” (small hit), the transition state of the gaming state after the special game (see Table 9 described later) is different. In particular, in the winning symbol “2A, 2B, 4A, 4B”, which is a small hit, the gaming state at the time of transition to the special game and the gaming state after the special game are the same (that is, the gaming state does not shift). To supplement.

  Next, the specific game control means 1180 includes a specific game availability / content determination means 1183 that determines the content of the specific game, and a specific game end condition determination means 1181 that determines whether or not the specific game state end condition is satisfied. And have. Here, the specific game propriety / content determination means 1183 is a reference for determining whether or not to shift to the specific game related to the first main game and the second main game and the main game specific game propriety / content determination to be referred to when determining the content. It further includes a table 1183a, and a reference table 1183b for determining whether or not to transfer a specific game related to the auxiliary game and determining the content of the auxiliary game and determining whether or not to determine the content. These will be described in detail below.

First, Table 9 shows an example of a main game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183a (particularly, a game state determination reference table). Here, before explaining the content of this example, each gaming state in this embodiment is arranged. First, the “main game probability change game state” in the present embodiment refers to a state (the main game probability change flag is on) in which the winning probability of transition to a special game is higher than that of the “main game normal game state”. Further, the “main game short game state” refers to a state where the main game symbol variation time is relatively shorter than the “main game normal game state” (the main game short time flag is on).

  In the present embodiment, the main game state after the special game is uniquely determined based on the main game state at the time of the transition to the special game and the main game side stop pattern that triggered the transition to the special game. Although it is comprised so that it may be determined, it is not limited to this. In that case, for example, it may be configured to be uniquely determined based only on the main game state at the time of the transition to the special game, or the stop pattern on the main game side that triggered the transition to the special game It may be configured to be determined uniquely based only on the above.

Next, Table 10 is a main game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183a (especially for the number determination reference) that is referred to when determining the number of game states on the main game side when the game state is switched. Table) shows an example. As can be seen from Table 10, in this embodiment, when the game state on the main game side shifts to the main game probability change game state, the symbol variation of the main game symbol for a predetermined number of times (100 times in this example). The game is configured to continue until the game ends. Similarly, when the game state on the main game side shifts to the short game state at the time of the main game, the game continues until the predetermined number (100 in this example) of the main game symbol variation ends. Is configured to do. That is, when the game state on the main game side shifts to the main game probability change game state and the main game short game state, a relatively short period of time is required until the change of the main game symbol for the predetermined number of times is completed. Therefore, it is possible to expect the next big hit occurrence, which is an advantageous game state for the player. In this embodiment, the probability change and the number of time reductions are the same. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of times of probability change> number of time reductions may be set. Furthermore, it may be configured to continue until the next big hit without setting a limit on the number of times of probability change and / or time reduction (for example, 99999 times, ∞ times).

Next, Table 11 is an example of an auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly a game state determination reference table). As can be seen from Table 11, the gaming state on the auxiliary game side in the present embodiment is configured to be uniquely determined based on a winning easy state type representing the gaming state. Here, the easy-to-win state type is a type that is different for each combination of on / off states of the auxiliary game probability change flag, the auxiliary game short time flag, and the open extension flag (open extension flags A to D in this example). For example, if the easy winning state type in the game state on the auxiliary game side is “state type 19”, the auxiliary game probability change flag = on, the auxiliary game short flag = on, and the release extension flag A = on (release extension flag B) ˜D = off). In the present embodiment, in order to facilitate understanding, as the type number of the easy winning state type increases (“state type 0” <“state type 1” <... <“State type 19”). The performance in the easy-to-win state is improved (in other words, the opening time of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 per unit time is increased) (however, it is not limited to this). Further, the number of easy winning status types is not particularly limited. For example, the maximum number of combinations of on / off states of the auxiliary game probability change flag, the auxiliary game short time flag, and the open / extended flag can be set as the easy winning status type. An example of configuring the maximum number of types can be given. {In this example, 2 types of auxiliary game probability change flag × 2 types of auxiliary game short time flag × 5 types of open / extended flag (when any one of A to D is on) Street + all ways off) = 20 is the maximum number of combinations}. It should be noted that even if the combination of the on / off state of the auxiliary game probability change flag, the auxiliary game short time flag, and the open / extended flag is the same, it can be set as different winning easy state types (a specific example of such a configuration). Will be described later).

Next, Table 12 is an example of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, a reference table for determining a winning easy state type). As can be seen from Table 12, in this embodiment, the winning easy state type in the gaming state on the auxiliary game side is based on the transition state of any one of the gaming state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side after the special game, It is configured to be determined uniquely. Here, in the present embodiment, the game state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side after the special game are the winning game easy state type at the time of the special game transition and the main game side that has become a trigger for the transition to the special game. It is configured to be uniquely determined based on the stop symbol. For example, if the easy winning state type at the time of transition to the special game is “state type 0” and the stop symbol on the main game side that triggered the transition to the special game is “7A”, the special game The game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side after the game is determined as “mode 7A-0”. In addition, the transition mode of any one of the game state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side is uniquely determined based on the game state transition mode type and the number of rotations (the number of times of variation) related to the symbol variation after the end of the special game. It is configured to be. For example, when the game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side after the special game is “mode 7A-0”, the number of rotations related to the symbol variation after the end of the special game is “6 to 30 rotations”. When the winning game easy state type in the gaming state on the auxiliary game side is determined as “state type 18” and the number of rotations related to the symbol variation after the end of the special game is “31 to 50 rotations” In this case, the easy winning state type in the gaming state on the auxiliary game side is determined as “state type 17”. Then, on / off of various flags that determine the gaming state on the auxiliary game side (see Table 11) is determined based on the determined winning easy state type. Here, in this embodiment, when the winning state is in a profit state with a high easy-to-win state, the game state transition is higher in the profit state than in the case where the winning state is lower than the profit state. It is comprised so that an aspect classification may be selected.

  Here, in the present embodiment, attention is focused on the case where the stop symbol on the main game side that has become a trigger for the transition to the special game is “7A, 7B”. In such a case, as described above, after the special game, the game state on the main game side shifts to the main game probability change game state and the main game short game state, and the main game symbols for a predetermined number of times. Until the change is completed, the gaming state is advantageous to the player. Then, in a situation where the game state is advantageous for the player, as shown in the present example, an object is to create a new gameability by changing the easy-to-win state on the auxiliary game side. In other words, in this situation, as the number of symbol fluctuations of the main game symbol accumulates, the easy winning state changes from “state type 19” → “state type 18” → “state type 17”. (The effects of such features will be described later).

  In the present embodiment, the game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side after the special game is the winning easy state type at the time of the special game transition and the stop pattern on the main game side that triggered the transition to the special game. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be determined uniquely based on other factors. For example, it may be configured to be uniquely determined based on the on / off state of an arbitrary flag among various flags indicating the game state on the auxiliary game side, not the easy winning state type in the game state on the auxiliary game side. Alternatively, it may be determined uniquely based on the game state of the main game side at the time of the transition to the special game (that is, the on / off state of the main game probability change flag and the main game short time flag). However, it may be configured to be uniquely determined based on the stop symbol on the main game side. As a further example, the game state on the main game side may be uniquely determined based on the main game limited frequency state. Here, the main game limited frequency state is based on the premise that the lottery table referred to is different depending on whether or not the main game limited frequency state is used when determining the variation mode of the main game symbol. And a state in which the variation mode of the main game symbol is determined with reference to a special table different from the table that is originally referred to for a limited number of times after the predetermined main game symbol is stopped and displayed. That is.

  Next, the specific game end condition determining means 1181 corresponds to the rotation number counter 1181a for counting the number of rotations related to the symbol variation after the end of the special game, and the accumulated value of the number of variations of the special symbol after the end of the special game. An auxiliary gaming state transition counter 1181b for specifying the stage value of the gaming state on the auxiliary gaming side that changes in stages (value relating to the current transition mode in the gaming state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary gaming side), The game state transition modes 1 to N further include an easy-to-win state switching counter 1181c for counting the number of rotations related to the symbol variation as the switching timing.

  Next, FIG. 8 is a flowchart of the electric accessory drive determination execution process according to the subroutine of step 1200 in FIG. First, in step 1202, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 refers to the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192 to determine whether or not the electric accessory opening flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 1202, in step 1204, the auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 refers to the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192 to determine whether or not the auxiliary game symbol changing flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 1204, in step 1206, the auxiliary game content determination unit 1143 refers to the auxiliary game symbol hold information temporary storage unit 1133a and determines whether or not there is a hold ball related to the auxiliary game symbol. Hereinafter, if the answer is Yes in step 1206, the opening / rejection lottery (determination of auxiliary game symbol determination) process of the auxiliary game electric component (second main game start opening electric component 2112), the variation time of the auxiliary game symbol Determination processing, auxiliary game symbol variation display processing, auxiliary game electric accessory release time determination processing, and auxiliary game electric accessory release control processing are executed.

  First, from Step 1250 to Step 1254, a lottery for opening / decreasing the auxiliary game electric accessory (determination of auxiliary game symbols) is executed. Specifically, first, in step 1250, the auxiliary game content determination unit 1143 refers to the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage unit 1192b and determines whether or not the auxiliary game probability change flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1250, in step 1252, based on the auxiliary game side random number to be digested this time, the electric accessory release availability determination means 1135c refers to the electric accessory release determination lottery table 1135d (for auxiliary game probability change). Then, the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 determines the stop symbol with reference to the auxiliary game stop symbol determination reference table 1143a-1 based on the result of the determination. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1250, in step 1254, in step 1254, based on the auxiliary game side random number to be digested this time, the electric game object release availability determination means 1135c uses the electric game object open / close determination lottery table 1135d (for auxiliary game normal time). The auxiliary game content determination means 1143 determines the stop symbol with reference to the auxiliary game stop symbol determination reference table 1143a-1 based on the determination result. In addition, in this embodiment, it is configured to assign a stop symbol corresponding to the result of winning / rejection after executing the opening / rejection lottery of the auxiliary game electric accessory. You may comprise so that a stop symbol may be determined directly using. In this case, the winning symbol selection rate in the auxiliary game probability change table is set higher than that in the auxiliary game normal time table. In this example, there is only one type of auxiliary game probability variation flag. However, a plurality of types (for example, three types) may be provided, and the winning probabilities may be different from each other (for example, in the order of increasing winning probabilities) Game probability change A flag ON> auxiliary game probability change flag B ON> auxiliary game probability change flag C ON> auxiliary game probability change flag OFF).

Next, in steps 1256 to 1260, a process for determining the variation time of the auxiliary game symbol is executed. Specifically, first, in step 1256, the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 refers to the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b, and determines whether or not the auxiliary game short time flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1256, in step 1258, the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 refers to the auxiliary game variation mode determination reference table 1143a-2, and sets the variation time of the auxiliary game symbol (T _{x in} this example). To do. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1256, in step 1260, the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 refers to the auxiliary game variation mode determination reference table 1143a-2, and changes the auxiliary game symbol variation time {T _Y (in this example, T _Y ( T _Y > T _X )} is set. In the present embodiment, when the variation time of the auxiliary game symbol is determined, the variation time is uniquely assigned by turning on / off the auxiliary game short time flag (that is, in the form of a reference table). Instead, a lottery table configuration may be employed. In this case, it suffices that the average time of the selected time based on the selection frequency is configured to be shorter in the auxiliary game short time than in the auxiliary game normal time. Even if the time with the same variation time may be selected depending on the time, there may be a case where the time when the auxiliary game is short is longer than when the auxiliary game is normal. Further, in this example, there is only one type of auxiliary game short time flag, but a plurality of types (for example, three types) may be provided, and the variation time (or the above-mentioned average time) may be configured differently (for example, In order of decreasing variation time, auxiliary game short A flag on> auxiliary game short flag B on> auxiliary game short flag C on> auxiliary game short flag off).

  Next, in steps 1212 to 1220, the auxiliary game symbol variation display process is executed. First, in step 1212, the auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 turns on the auxiliary game symbol changing flag in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192. Next, in step 1214, the auxiliary game symbol holding means 1133 updates the hold information recorded in the auxiliary game symbol hold information temporary storage means 1133a after subtracting 1 from the hold ball related to the auxiliary game symbol, and also assists. The game symbol control means 1154 starts the auxiliary game symbol variation management timer 1154a-1, and then starts the variation display of the auxiliary game symbol on the auxiliary game symbol display unit 2421. Next, in step 1215, the information transmission unit 1300 transmits information indicating that the variation display of the auxiliary game symbol has started (auxiliary game symbol variation start information) to the effect control unit 2310 side. Next, in step 1216, the auxiliary game symbol variation time management means 1154a refers to the auxiliary game symbol variation management timer 1154a-1, and determines whether or not the predetermined time has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 1216, in step 1218, the auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 confirms and displays the stop symbol determined by the auxiliary game content determination means 1143 in step 1252 or step 1254 on the auxiliary game symbol display unit 2421. Next, in step 1219, the information transmission unit 1300 transmits information indicating that the auxiliary game symbol variation display has ended (auxiliary game symbol variation end information) to the effect control unit 2310 side. In step 1220, the auxiliary game symbol control means 1154 turns off the auxiliary game symbol changing flag in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192.

Next, in steps 1222 to 1266, an auxiliary game electric accessory release time determination process is executed. First, in step 1222, the condition determination means 1161 determines whether or not the stop symbol of the auxiliary game symbol is “winning”. In the case of Yes in step 1222, in step 1262, the electric accessory opening / closing mode determination means 1164 refers to the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b, and the release extension flag (any of the release extension flags A to D) is turned on. It is determined whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1262, in step 1264, the electric accessory opening / closing mode determination means 1164 refers to the electric accessory opening time determination reference table 1163, and opens the opening time corresponding to the open extension flag that is turned on (main book). In the example, the release extension flag A ON = release time T _L1 , the release extension flag B ON = release time T _L2 , the release extension flag C ON = release time T _{L3, the} release extension flag D ON = release time T _L4 ) Set in the related information temporary storage means 1192. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1262, in step 1266, the electric accessory opening / closing mode determination means 1164 refers to the electric accessory opening time determination reference table 1163, and an opening time (when the opening extension flag is off ( In this example, the release extension flags A to D off = release time T _S ) are set in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192. In the present embodiment, an example in which a plurality of opening extension flags (three types in this example) are provided is illustrated, but one opening extension flag may be provided. In this case, when the release extension flag is ON, the release extension time determination random number is acquired at a predetermined timing (for example, when the auxiliary game random number is acquired, when the change of the auxiliary game symbol starts, and when the change of the auxiliary game symbol ends) ( Alternatively, an auxiliary game random number may be used as it is, and an extended extended time lottery table in which a plurality of open times can be selected may be provided.

  Next, from step 1226 to step 1234, the opening control process for the auxiliary gaming electric accessory is executed. First, in step 1226, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 turns on the electric accessory open flag in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192. In step 1228, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 opens the second main game start port electric accessory 2112 of the second main game start port 2110 and starts the electric accessory release period management timer 1162. . Next, in step 1229, the information transmission unit 1300 transmits information indicating that the opening operation of the second main game start opening electric player 2112 (electric member release start information) is started to the effect control unit 2310 side. Next, in step 1230, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 refers to the electric accessory release period management timer 1162, and has reached the end timing of the opening time temporarily stored in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192? Determine whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1230, in step 1232, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 closes the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 of the second main game start opening 2110 and manages the electric accessory opening period management. Timer 1162 is stopped (and cleared to zero). Next, in step 1233, the information transmission means 1300 transmits information indicating that the opening operation of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 has been completed (electric accessory release end information) to the effect control means 2310 side. Next, in step 1234, the electric accessory opening / closing control means 1160 turns off the electric accessory releasing flag in the auxiliary game related information temporary storage means 1192, and proceeds to the next process (the normal game process in step 14). .

  If No in Step 1202, the process proceeds to Step 1230. If No in Step 1204, the process proceeds to Step 1216. If No in Step 1206, Step 1216, Step 1222, and Step 1230, the next process (Step 14) is performed. Normal game processing).

  Next, FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the normal game control process according to the subroutine of step 14 in FIG. First, in step 1400 (1), main controller 1000 executes a first main game symbol display process to be described later. Next, in step 1400 (2), main controller 1000 executes a second main game symbol display process described later. In step 1500, main controller 1000 executes a special game operation condition determination process, which will be described later, and proceeds to the next step (special game control process 16).

  Next, FIG. 10 is a flowchart of the first main game symbol display process and the second main game symbol display process according to the subroutine of steps 1400 (1) and (2) in FIG. Since this process is common to the first main game symbol side and the second main game symbol side, unless otherwise specified, the first main game symbol side is mainly described, and the second main game symbol side. Is written in parentheses. First, in step 1800, main controller 1000 executes variation start condition satisfaction determination processing described later. Next, in step 1402, the first main game content determination means 1141 (second main game content determination means 1142) has the variation start permission flag relating to the first main game symbol (second main game symbol) turned on. Determine whether or not. The “variation start permission flag” is a flag that is turned on in a variation start condition satisfaction determination process described later, and that is turned on under the condition that the special game or the main game symbol is not changing. In the case of Yes in step 1402, in step 1403, the first main game content determination means 1141 (second main game content determination means 1142) accesses the flag area of the main game related information temporary storage means 1191, and the first main game The variation start permission flag related to the symbol (second main game symbol) is turned off.

  Next, in step 1404, the first main game content determination means 1141 (second main game content determination means 1142) is the first main game symbol hold information temporary storage means 1131a (second main game symbol hold information temporary storage means 1132a. ) Temporarily stored in the first main game side random number (second main game side random number) related to the current symbol variation. Next, in step 1405, the first main game content determination means 1141 (second main game content determination means 1142) is the first main game symbol hold information temporary storage means 1131a (second main game symbol hold information temporary storage means 1132a. ) Is deleted from the first main game random number (second main game random number), and the first main game random number (second main game random number) related to the remaining symbol variation is shifted. Next, in step 1406, the winning / not-lotting means 1135 uses the first main game random number (first winning random number) {second main gaming random number (second winning random number)} and the game state for the first main game. With reference to the winner / lottery table 1135b-1 (second main game winner / lottery table 1135b-3), the main game symbol winner (big hit, small hit) lottery is executed. In the present embodiment, the big win and the small lottery are executed in the same lottery table, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in the case of winning / not-winning lottery, the big hit lottery is first executed with reference to the big hit lottery table, and when the lottery is shifted to the big hit lottery, the small hit lottery is executed with reference to the small hit lottery table Good. Further, the small hitting lottery may be executed by referring to the small hitting lottery table first, and the big hitting lottery may be executed even when the small hitting lottery is deviated or hit. In step 1408, the special game transition determining unit 1135a determines whether or not the lottery result is a win. In the case of Yes in step 1408, in step 1410, the special game transition determining means 1135a turns on the hit flag in the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a. On the other hand, if step 1408 is No, step 1410 is skipped.

  In step 1412, the first main game content determination means 1141 (second main game content determination means 1142) in the first main game content determination lottery table 1141 a (second main game content determination lottery table 1142 a). Referring to each lottery table, the first main game side random number (for example, the first main game symbol determination random number, the first main game variation mode determination random number) {the second main game side random number (for example, the second main game symbol determination random number) , Second main game variation mode determination random number)} is determined based on the first main game symbol (second main game symbol) and the variation mode, and these are temporarily stored in the first and second main game symbol related information. Temporarily store in the means 1191a. The referenced table is determined based on the result of the success / failure and the gaming state (probability variation gaming state and the like) (and so on). Next, in step 1414, the information transmission means 1300 receives the symbol information (stop symbol information, stop symbol attribute information, variation mode information, etc.) relating to the first main game symbol (second main game symbol) determined in step 1412. It transmits to the production control means 2320 side. Next, in step 1416, the first main game symbol variation time management means 1151a (second main game symbol variation time management means 1152a) sets the predetermined time {the variation time according to the variation mode determined in step 1412} to the first. It is set in the main game symbol variation management timer 1151a-1 (second main game symbol variation management timer 1152a-1). In step 1418, the first main game symbol control means 1151 (second main game symbol control means 1152) then displays the first main game symbol display unit 2131 (second main game symbol display) of the first main game symbol display device 2130. On the second main game symbol display unit 2231) of the device 2230, in accordance with the variation mode temporarily stored in the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a, the main game symbol variation display is started. 1 main game symbol variation management timer 1151a-1 (second main game symbol variation management timer 1152a-1) is started. Next, in step 1420, the first main game symbol control means 1151 (second main game symbol control means 1152) turns on the changing flag in the main game related information temporary storage means 1191.

  Then, in step 1422, the first main game symbol variation time management means 1151a (second main game symbol variation time management means 1152a) performs the first main game symbol variation management timer 1151a-1 (second main game symbol variation management). Referring to timer 1152a-1), it is determined whether or not a predetermined time related to the variation time of the main game symbol has been reached. Here, in the case of No in step 1422, the process proceeds to the next process (special game operation condition determination process in step 1500). On the other hand, if Yes in step 1422, in step 1424, the information transmission unit 1300 transmits a command indicating that the predetermined time has been reached to the effect control unit 2320 side. Next, in step 1426, the first main game symbol control means 1151 (second main game symbol control means 1152), the first main game symbol display unit 2130 of the first main game symbol display device 2130 (second main game symbol). The change display of the main game symbol on the second main game symbol display unit 2231) of the display device 2230 is stopped, and the stop symbol stored in the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a is confirmed and stopped. Display control as a symbol.

  Next, in step 1438, the game control means 1100 refers to the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a, and determines whether or not the hit flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1438, in step 1440, the game control means 1100 turns off the hit flag in the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a. Next, at step 1446, the game control means 1100 turns on the special game execution permission flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c. Next, in step 1447-1, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a to determine whether or not the current hit is not a small hit. In the case of Yes in step 1447-1, in step 1447-2, the specific game control means 1180 changes the storage contents in the game content determination information temporary storage area in the game related information temporary storage means 1190 to the special game of this time. The game is updated with the winning symbol and the current game state (the main game side, the auxiliary game side, and the current winning easy state type) that have become the transition opportunity, and the process proceeds to Step 1428. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1447-1, in step 1447-3, the specific game control unit 1180 stores the content stored in the game content determination information temporary storage area in the game related information temporary storage unit 1190 as the special game of this time. The game is updated with the winning symbol and the current easy-to-win status type that triggered the transition to, and the process proceeds to step 1428. In the case of No in step 1438, the process proceeds to step 1428. Here, the storage content in the game content determination information temporary storage area updated (backed up) in the processing of steps 1447-2 and 1447-3 determines the game state after the special game, as will be described later. It will be referred to as appropriate.

  Next, in step 1428, the first main game symbol control means 1151 (second main game symbol control means 1152) turns off the changing flag in the main game related information temporary storage means 1191. In step 1430, the first main game symbol variation time management means 1151a (second main game symbol variation time management means 1152a) first timer game variation management timer 1151a-1 (second main game symbol variation management). Timer 1152a-1) is stopped (and reset).

  After the change of the main game symbol is completed in this way, in step 1433-1, the specific game control means 1180 adds 1 to the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a. Here, the counter value Cm of the number-of-times counter 1181a is the number of winning / failing lotteries (or the number of fluctuations of the main game symbol) executed after the end of the special game (especially the big hit). Next, at step 1433-2, the specific game control means 1180 adds 1 to the counter value Cs of the winning easy state switching counter 1181c. Here, the counter value Cs of the easy-to-win state switching counter 1181c is the number of winning / failing lotteries (or the number of fluctuations of the main game symbol) executed after the end of the special game (big hit and small hit). In this embodiment, the process of adding 1 to the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a and the counter value Cs of the winning easy state switching counter 1181c is executed after the main game symbol change is completed, but the present invention is not limited to this. The addition process may be performed before or during the game symbol change start. Furthermore, it is only necessary to be able to know how many times the number of winning / failing lotteries (or the number of times the main game has been changed) has been executed after the end of the special game, the rotation number counter 1181a and the easy-to-win state switching counter 1181c are not necessarily required. The decrement method may be used instead of the increment method. When the rotation speed counter 1181a is decremented, for example, at the timing of step 9002 in FIG. 15, in other words, at the timing at which the main game state (main game probability change game state or main game short game state) is switched. The continuation number of the main gaming state after the switching may be set as the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a based on the values shown in Table 10. When the easy winning state switching counter 1181c is decremented, for example, at the timing of step 9012 in FIG. 15 or step 1480 in FIG. 12, in other words, at the timing at which the easy winning state is switched, the easy winning state switching counter. As the counter value Cs of 1181c, the number of continuations in the easy-to-win state after the change based on the values shown in Table 12 (the difference between the number of changes as the end condition and the number of changes as the start condition in the transition modes 1 to N). What is necessary is just to comprise so that it may be set.

  In step 1434, the information transmitting unit 1300 transmits the rotation end information (that is, information indicating that the variation has ended) to the sub-board (effect control unit) 2320 side. On the sub-board side that has received this information, a process of adding 1 to the rotation speed counter managed on the sub-board side is executed. On the sub board side, as will be described later, “special game state information” transmitted after the end of the special game from the main control board side, and “counter value” of the rotation speed counter managed on the sub board side. Based on this, determination of whether or not to notify information related to the gaming state of the auxiliary game and notification processing are executed. In the present embodiment, the sub-board side is configured to execute the determination of whether or not to notify the information regarding the gaming state of the auxiliary game, the determination of the information content to be notified, and the information notification. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In response to game state information from the main control board side (for example, reception of game state information in FIG. 12), information on the changed game state is always notified or suggested, or whether or not notification is possible by lottery May be configured to execute. Further, the management of the number of lotteries is not a configuration in which the rotation end information is transmitted every time the change ends, but the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a managed on the main control board side and the counter value Cs of the easy winning state switching counter 1181c. May be transmitted to the sub-board side.

  Next, in step 1450, main controller 1000 executes a specific game start / end determination process, which will be described later, and proceeds to the next process (special game operation condition determination process in step 1500). In the case of No in step 1402, in step 1432 the first main game symbol control means 1151 (second main game symbol control means 1152) refers to the main game related information temporary storage means 1191, and the changing flag It is determined whether or not is on. If Yes in step 1432, the process proceeds to step 1422, and if No, the process proceeds to the next process (special game operation condition determination process in step 1500).

  Next, FIG. 11 is a flowchart of the variation start condition satisfaction determination process related to the first main game symbol and the second main game symbol related to the subroutine of steps 1800 (1) and (2) in FIG. First, in step 1802, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determination means 1138 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c, respectively, and determines whether or not the special game is being played. In the case of Yes in step 1802, in step 1804, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determination unit 1138 accesses the main game related information temporary storage unit 1191, and whether the first main game symbol and the second main game symbol are currently fluctuating. Determine whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1804, in step 1808, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determining unit 1138 determines whether or not there is a hold on the priority digest side, that is, a hold on the second main game symbol side in this example. In the case of Yes in step 1808, in step 1810, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determination unit 1138 accesses the main game related information temporary storage unit 1191 and turns on the variation start permission flag relating to the second main game symbol on the priority digest side. Then, the process proceeds to the next process (step 1402). On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1808 (when there is no hold on the priority digest side), in step 1812, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determination unit 1138 determines whether there is a hold on the non-prior digestion side. . In the case of Yes in step 1812, in step 1814, the symbol variation start condition satisfaction determination unit 1138 accesses the main game related information temporary storage unit 1191 and turns on the variation permission flag relating to the first main game symbol on the non-priority digest side. Then, the process proceeds to the next process (step 1402). Note that the process proceeds to the next process (step 1402) also in the case of No in step 1802 or step 1804.

  Next, FIG. 12 is a flowchart of the specific game start / end determination process related to the first main game, the second main game, and the auxiliary game according to the subroutine of steps 1450 (1) and (2) in FIG. First, in this process, a specific game start / end determination process related to the game state on the main game side is executed in steps 1452 to 1462, and a specific game start related to the game state on the auxiliary game side is executed in steps 1464 to 1480.・ Execution determination processing is executed.

  First, the specific game start / end determination process related to the game state on the main game side in steps 1452 to 1462 will be described. First, in step 1452, the specific game end condition determination unit 1181 accesses the flag area of the main game side temporary game state storage unit 1191b and determines whether or not the main game probability change flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1452, in step 1454, the specific game end condition determining means 1181 refers to the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a, and the number of times of completion of the probable game state on the main game side {main game specific game in Table 10 It is determined whether or not the permission / content determination reference table 1183a (see, in particular, the number determination reference table) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 1454, in step 1456, the specific game control means 1180 accesses the flag area of the main game side temporary game state storage means 1191b, turns off the main game probability change flag, and proceeds to step 1458. Note that if the answer is No in step 1452 or step 1454, the process proceeds to step 1458. Next, in step 1458, the specific game end condition determining unit 1181 accesses the flag area of the main game side temporary game state storage unit 1191b and determines whether or not the main game short time flag is ON. In the case of Yes in step 1458, in step 1460, the specific game end condition determining means 1181 refers to the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a, and determines whether or not the number of times of end of the short-time game state on the main game side has been reached. To do. In the case of Yes in step 1460, in step 1462, the specific game control means 1180 accesses the flag area of the main game side temporary game state storage means 1191b, turns off the main game short time flag, and proceeds to step 1464. Note that if the result is No in step 1458 or step 1460, the process proceeds to step 1464.

  Next, the specific game start / end determination process related to the game state on the auxiliary game side in steps 1464 to 1480 will be described. First, in step 1464, the specific game end condition determination unit 1181 accesses the flag area of the main game side temporary game state storage unit 1191b and determines whether or not the main game short time flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1464, in step 1470, the specific game end condition determining unit 1181 refers to the winning easy state transition mode temporary storage unit 1192c, and the auxiliary game side game state transition mode 1 set at the end of the special game. A counter value Cw-th transition mode of the auxiliary gaming state transition counter 1181b in .about.N is specified, and an end rotation speed (see Table 12) in the specified transition mode is acquired. For example, in the case of the example shown in Table 12, when the currently executed gaming state transition mode type is mode 7A-0 and transition mode 2 (Cw = 2) (easy winning status type = 18), special Information for determining whether or not the number of lotteries after the game has reached 30 is obtained, that is, whether or not it is time to end the transition mode and shift to the next transition mode. Next, in step 1472, the specific game end condition determining means 1181 determines whether the acquired end rotation number (30 times in the case of the above example) and the counter value Cs of the winning easy state switching counter 1181c are the same value. No, in other words, it is determined whether or not the auxiliary gaming side gaming state (winning easy state) is to be shifted when the symbol variation ends. In the case of Yes in step 1472, in step 1474, the specific game control means 1180 adds 1 to the counter value Cw of the auxiliary game state transition counter 1181b (Cw = 3 in the above example). Next, in step 1476, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the easy-to-win state transition mode temporary storage means 1192c, and the auxiliary game in the game state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side set at the end of the special game. The transition mode (transition mode 7A-0 in the case of the above example) of the counter value Cw-th (in the above example and Cw = 3) of the state transition counter 1181b is specified, and the specified transition mode (the above-mentioned In the case of the example, the easy winning state type (the state type 17 in the case of the above example) in the transition mode 7A-0) is acquired. Next, in step 1478, the specific game control means 1180, based on the acquired winning easy state type (state type 17 in the case of the above example), the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table (especially the game). Referring to the state determination reference table) 1183b, various flag states (flag on / off states) are acquired (see Table 11; in the case of the above example, the auxiliary game probability change flag, the auxiliary game short time flag, and the release) Each extension flag C is on). Next, in step 1480, the specific game control means 1180, based on the acquired various flag states, the auxiliary game probability change flag, auxiliary game short time flag and release extension flag (this example) in the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b. Then, the flag state of the release extension flags A to D) is updated. Then, in step 1490, the information transmission means 1300 sends information related to all the game states temporarily stored in the main game side game state temporary storage means 1191b and the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b to the sub-side (effect control). The process proceeds to the next process (special game operation condition determination process in step 1500). On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1464, in step 1482, the specific game control means 1180 determines that the auxiliary game probability change flag, auxiliary game short time flag, and open extension flag (in this example, open) in the auxiliary game side temporary game state storage means 1192b. All flag states of the extension flags A to D) are set to OFF, and the process proceeds to step 1490. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the main game short time flag is turned off, all the transition modes scheduled for the game state transition mode type determined after the special game are not completed (for example, In the situation 7A-0, which is the transition aspect 2 and the transition aspect 3 is not yet executed), all the auxiliary game side flags are forcibly turned off. However, the game state on the auxiliary game side does not have to be subordinate to the game state on the main game side in this way, and all planned transition modes are executed regardless of the game state on the main game side. You may comprise. In the case of No in step 1472, the process proceeds to step 1490.

  Next, FIG. 13 is a flowchart of the special game operation condition determination process according to the subroutine of step 1500 in FIG. First, in step 1502, the condition determination unit 1171 refers to the special game related information temporary storage unit 1191c to determine whether or not the special game execution permission flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1502, in step 1504, the condition determination unit 1171 turns off the special game execution permission flag in the special game related information temporary storage unit 1191c. Next, in step 1506, the special game content determination unit 1172 refers to the special game content reference table 1172a (see Table 8) based on the various parameters, thereby storing the special game content in the special game related information temporary storage unit. 1191c. This completes the special game content setting process.

  Next, from step 1508 to step 1515, a flag or counter clear process is executed when the special game is a big hit. Specifically, first, in step 1508, the specific game end condition determining unit 1181 refers to the special game related information temporary storage unit 1191c to determine whether or not the current hit is a small hit. In the case of Yes in step 1508, in step 1512, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the main game side temporary game state storage means 1191b and the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b, and among the game state flags related to the specific game. It is determined whether or not there is a flag that is ON. In the case of Yes in step 1512, in step 1514, the specific game control unit 1180 turns off all corresponding flags (that is, game state flags related to the specific game being on) in step 1512, and proceeds to step 1515. Note that if the answer is No in step 1512, the process proceeds to step 1515. Next, in Step 1515, the specific game control means 1180 clears (zero clears) the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a.

  Next, from step 1516 to step 1517, clear processing of each counter related to the auxiliary gaming side gaming state is executed (in any case where the special game is either big hit or small hit). First, in step 1516, the specific game control means 1180 clears (zero clears) the counter value Cs of the winning easy state switching counter 1181c. Next, in step 1517, the specific game control means 1180 sets an initial value (1 in this example) to the counter value Cw of the auxiliary game state transition counter 1181b.

  In step 1518, the condition determination means 1171 turns on the special game transition permission flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c, and proceeds to the next process (special game control process in step 1600). In the case of No in step 1502, the process proceeds to the next process (special game control process in step 1600), and in the case of No in step 1508, the process proceeds to step 1516.

  Next, FIG. 14 is a flowchart of the special game control process according to the subroutine of step 1600 in FIG. First, in step 1602, the special game executing means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c and determines whether or not the special game transition permission flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1602, in step 1604 and step 1606, the special game execution means 1173 turns off the special game transition permission flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c and turns on the special game execution flag. Next, in step 1608, the information transmission unit 1300 transmits information (special game start display instruction information) for instructing the start display of the special game to the effect control unit 2320 side, and proceeds to step 1612. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1602, in step 1610, the special game execution means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c and determines whether or not the special game execution flag is on. If YES in step 1610, the process proceeds to step 1612. In the case of No in step 1610, the special game executing means 1173 determines that the special game permission has not been granted, and proceeds to the next process (prize ball payout control process in step 5000).

  Next, in step 1612, the special game execution means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c and determines whether or not the round continuation flag is on, in other words, whether or not the round is in the middle. Determine. If Yes in step 1612, that is, if the round is in the middle, the process proceeds to step 1626 without performing the processes of steps 1614 to 1622 described in detail below. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1612, that is, when it is just before the start of the round, first, in step 1614, the special game control means 1170 has the release pattern (1191c temporarily stored in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c). For example, an open pattern that keeps opening and a pattern that opens and closes are set. Next, in step 1616, the special game executing means 1173 clears the winning ball counter in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c to zero. Next, in step 1618, the special game executing means 1173 adds 1 to the round number counter in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c. Note that the number of rounds stored in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c is 0 immediately after the start of the special game (initial value), and is incremented by 1 each time the rounds are repeated thereafter. Next, in step 1620, the special game executing means 1173 turns on the round continuation flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c. Next, in step 1622, the special game execution means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c and confirms which of the first big prize opening 2120 or the second big prize opening 2220 is to be opened. The first grand prize opening 2120 or the second big prize opening 2220 of the first big prize opening 2220 or the second big prize opening electric role 2222 is driven to drive the first big prize opening 2120 or the second big prize. The mouth 2220 is opened and the round execution timer 1174a is started, and the process proceeds to Step 1626.

  Next, in step 1626, the special game executing means 1173 refers to the winning ball counter of the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c to determine whether or not a predetermined ball (for example, 10 balls) has been won in the round. . If Yes in step 1626, the process proceeds to step 1630. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1626, in step 1628, the special game execution means 1173 refers to the round execution timer 1174a (particularly, the opening time timer) and determines whether or not a predetermined time related to the round execution has elapsed. To do. If Yes in step 1628, the process proceeds to step 1630. On the other hand, if No in step 1628, the process proceeds to the next process (prize ball payout control process in step 5000).

  Next, in step 1630, the special game executing means 1173 drives the first big prize opening electric member 2122 or the second big prize opening electric member 2222 of the first big prize port 2120 or the second big prize port 2220. It stops and closes the 1st grand prize opening 2120 or the 2nd big prize opening 2220. In step 1632, the special game executing means 1173 stops (and resets) the round execution timer 1174a. Next, in step 1634, the special game executing means 1173 turns off the round continuation flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c. Next, in step 1636, the special game executing means 1173 refers to the round number counter in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c, and if the round is a final round (for example, a big hit relating to a high profit special game). It is determined whether it is 16 rounds or 1 round if it is a small hit relating to a real special ball-free game. In the case of Yes in step 1636, in step 1638, the special game execution means 1173 turns off the special game execution flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1191c. Next, in step 1640, the information transmission means 1300 transmits information (special game end display instruction information) for instructing the end display of the special game to the effect control means 2320 side. In step 9000, the game control unit 1100 executes a game state determination process after the end of the special game, which will be described later, and proceeds to the next process (a prize ball payout process in step 5000). Even in the case of No in step 1636, the process proceeds to the next process (prize ball payout process in step 5000).

  Next, FIG. 15 is a flowchart of the game state determination processing after the special game according to the subroutine of Step 9000 in FIG. Here, in this process, the game state on the main game side is first determined, and then the game state on the auxiliary game side is determined. First, the former process will be described. In step 9001, the specific game control unit 1180 refers to the special game related information temporary storage unit 1191c to determine whether or not the current hit is a small hit. Here, in the case of No in step 9001, in other words, if the current hit is a small hit, the process proceeds to step 9004 without executing the process of step 9002. By setting it as such a process, the game state of the main game side will not transfer by a small hit. In the case of Yes in step 9001, in step 9002, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the game content determination information temporary storage area in the game related information temporary storage means 1190 (contents backed up in step 1447-2 in FIG. 10). Then, after obtaining the symbol information and the game state (main game side) information that have been the trigger of this time, the main game game state is determined with reference to the reference table 1183a for determining the main game specific game availability / content (See Table 9), the determined main game game state is set in the main game side game state temporary storage means 1191b. In addition, when determining whether or not the specific game on the main game side is allowed and / or contents, in this embodiment, it is determined based on the stop symbol of the special symbol and the game state, but is not limited to this, for example, only the stop symbol of the special symbol Even if it is determined in step 1, it may be determined only by the specific game state on the main game side at the time of winning.

  Next, the game state determination process on the auxiliary game side will be described. First, in step 9004, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the game content determination information temporary storage area in the game-related information temporary storage means 1190 (contents backed up in step 1447-3 in FIG. 10). After obtaining the symbol information and game state information (in this example, the winning easy state type related to the gaming state on the auxiliary game side) as an opportunity for the auxiliary game, the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (easy winning state) With reference to the type determination reference table), the game state transition mode type related to the game state on the auxiliary game side is determined. Next, in step 9006, the specific game control means 1180 stores information related to the game state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side in the winning easy state transition mode temporary storage unit 1192c based on the determined game state transition mode type. Set (see Table 12). Next, in step 9008, the specific game control means 1180 counts the counter value Cw of the easy-to-win state switching counter 1181c in the set game state transition modes 1 to N on the auxiliary game side (here, in step 1517 in FIG. 13). The easy winning state type in the transition mode of Cw = 1), which is the initial value set, is acquired. Next, in step 9010, the specific game control means 1180 refers to the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table (particularly the game state determination reference table) 1183b based on the acquired winning easy state type, Various flag states (flag on / off states) are acquired (see Table 11). Next, in step 9012, the specific game control means 1180, based on the acquired various flag states, the auxiliary game probability change flag, auxiliary game short time flag and release extension flag (this example) in the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b. Then, the flag state of the release extension flags A to D) is updated.

  In step 9014, the information transmitting means 1300 sends the information related to the main gaming state set in step 9002, the auxiliary gaming state set in step 9012, and the gaming state transition modes 1 to N set in step 9006 to the sub-side. It transmits to (the production control means 2320 side), and shifts to the next process (prize ball payout control process in step 5000).

  In the present embodiment, the game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side after the special game is the winning easy state type at the time of the special game transition and the stop pattern on the main game side that triggered the transition to the special game. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be determined uniquely based on other factors. For example, it may be configured to be uniquely determined based on the on / off state of an arbitrary flag among various flags indicating the game state on the auxiliary game side, not the easy winning state type in the game state on the auxiliary game side. Alternatively, it may be determined uniquely based on the game state of the main game side at the time of the transition to the special game (that is, the on / off state of the main game probability change flag and the main game short time flag). However, it may be configured to be uniquely determined based on the stop symbol on the main game side. As a further example, the game state on the main game side may be uniquely determined based on the main game limited frequency state. Here, the main game limited frequency state is based on the premise that the lottery table referred to is different depending on whether or not the main game limited frequency state is used when determining the variation mode of the main game symbol. And a state in which the variation mode of the main game symbol is determined with reference to a special table different from the table that is originally referred to for a limited number of times after the predetermined main game symbol is stopped and displayed. That is.

  Next, the flow of processing on the sub-board side of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. First, FIG. 16 is a main flowchart showing the flow of general processing performed by the effect control means 2320. First, in step 6500, the effect control means 2320 executes a hold information management / hold display process to be described later. Next, in steps 6100 (1) and (2), the effect control unit 2320 executes first and second decorative symbol display content determination processing described later. Next, in Steps 6200 (1) and (2), the effect control means 2320 executes first and second decorative symbol display control processing described later. Next, in step 6300, the effect control means 2320 executes display control processing during special game (during big hit), which will be described later. In step 6400, the effect control unit 2320 executes a gaming state notification control process described later, and repeats the process of returning to step 6500. Hereinafter, processing related to each subroutine will be described in detail.

  Next, FIG. 17 is a flowchart of the hold information management / hold display process according to the subroutine of step 6500 in FIG. First, in step 6502, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b refers to the main-side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines whether or not hold information is received from the main control device 1000 side. If YES in step 6502, in step 6504, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b adds 1 to the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage unit 2322b-1. In step 6505, the drawing hold information display control means 2322b displays the same number of hold as the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage means 2322b-1, and the next processing {step 6100 (1) The process proceeds to the first decorative symbol display content determination process}. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 6502, in step 6506, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b refers to the main side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines whether or not new symbol information has been received from the main controller 1000 side. Determine. In the case of Yes in step 6506, in step 6508, the drawing hold information display control means 2322b subtracts 1 from the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage means 2322b-1. In step 6510, the effect control means 2320 accesses the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, turns on the symbol content determination permission flag, and proceeds to step 6505.

  Next, FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the decorative symbol display content determination process according to the subroutine of step 6100 in FIG. Here, since step 6100 (1) related to the first decorative design and step 6100 (2) related to the second decorative design are common, both will be described together. First, in step 6102, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 determines whether or not the symbol content determination permission flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is on. In the case of Yes in step 6102, in step 6104, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 turns off the symbol content determination permission flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. Next, in step 6106, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 refers to the main-side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines the drawing variation content based on the new symbol information received from the main controller 1000 side. With reference to the lottery table 2322a-1-1 and the stop symbol determination lottery table 2322a-1-2, the decoration pattern variation mode and the stop symbol are determined, and within the symbol related information area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. Memorize temporarily. In step 6108, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 accesses the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c, turns on the symbol content determination flag, and performs the next process {step 6200 (1). The process proceeds to the first decorative symbol display control process}.

  Next, FIG. 19 is a flowchart of the decorative symbol display control process according to the subroutine of steps 6200 (1) and (2) in FIG. Here, since step 6200 (1) related to the first decorative design and step 6200 (2) related to the second decorative design are common, both will be described together. First, in step 6202, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c and determines whether or not the symbol changing flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 6202, in step 6204, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322a and determines whether or not the symbol content determination flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 6204, in step 6206 and step 6208, the decorative symbol display control unit 2322a turns on the symbol changing flag in the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c and sets the symbol content determination flag. Turn off. Next, in step 6210, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a displays the drawing of the effect display device 2310 in accordance with the determined content (variation mode) temporarily stored in the symbol related information area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. The variation display of the decorative symbols is started on the part 2311.

  In step 6212, the decorative symbol display control unit 2322 a refers to the main-side information temporary storage unit 2121 a and determines whether or not the symbol related to symbol stop (see step 1424 in FIG. 10) has been received from the main controller 1000 side. Determine. In the case of Yes in step 6212, in step 6214, the decoration symbol display control means 2322a follows the determination contents (stop symbols) temporarily stored in the symbol related information area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. The stop symbol of the decorative symbol is fixedly displayed on the display unit 2311. In step 6216, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a turns off the symbol changing flag in the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to the next process (special game display control process in step 6300). Transition.

  If NO in step 6202, the process proceeds to step 6212. If NO in step 6204 and step 6212, the process proceeds to the next process (special game display control process in step 6300).

  Next, FIG. 20 is a flowchart of the special game (during big hit) display control process according to the subroutine of step 6300 in FIG. First, in step 6302, the display control means 2322 refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and determines whether or not the special game flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 6302, in step 6304, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a, and determines whether or not special game start display instruction information has been received from the main control apparatus 1000 side. In the case of Yes in step 6304, in step 6306 and step 6308, the display control means 2322 turns on the special game flag in the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c and makes a big hit on the effect display device 2310. Start display. Then, in step 6358, the display control means 2322 appropriately displays the number of rounds and the number of winnings on the effect display device 2310 based on game information sequentially transmitted from the main control device 1000 side (display depending on the type of jackpot). May be configured not to do so). Next, in step 6312, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a and determines whether or not special game end display instruction information has been received from the main control apparatus 1000 side. In the case of Yes in step 6312, in step 6314, the display control unit 2322 performs a big hit end display on the effect display device 2310. In step 6316, the display control means 2322 turns off the special gaming flag in the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to the next process (game state notification control process in step 6400).

  In the case of No in step 6302 and step 6304, the process proceeds to step 6358, and in the case of No in step 6312, the process proceeds to the next process (game state notification control process in step 6400).

  Next, FIG. 21 is a flowchart of the gaming state notification control process according to the subroutine of step 6400 in FIG. First, in this process, a game state reception / management process after the end of the special game is executed in steps 6402 to 6406, and a symbol variation number management process after the special game is executed in steps 6410 to 6412. At 6422, the game state related information output control process is executed.

  First, the gaming state reception / management processing after the end of the special game in steps 6402 to 6406 will be described. First, in step 6402, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a, and the game state information after the special game from the main side (main control device 1000 side) (see step 9014 in FIG. 15). It is determined whether or not it has been received. In the case of Yes in step 6402, in step 6404, the display control means 2322 temporarily stores the information received in step 6402 in the special post-game state information temporary storage area in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. Next, in Step 6405, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a, and determines whether or not the hit relating to the special game this time is not a small hit. In the case of Yes in Step 6405, in Step 6406, the display control means 2322 clears the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation number counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to Step 6410. Here, by performing the processing as in Step 6405 and Step 6406, after the special game is triggered by the small hit, the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation speed counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is cleared. (Zero clear) will not be done. That is, the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation speed counter means the variable rotation speed that has been added since the end of the special game triggered by the big hit. Note that if the answer is No in Step 6402 or Step 6405, the process proceeds to Step 6410.

  Next, the symbol variation frequency management process after special game in steps 6410 to 6412 will be described. First, in step 6410, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a and has received the rotation end information (see step 1434 in FIG. 10) from the main side (main control apparatus 1000 side). Determine whether. In the case of Yes in step 6410, in step 6412, the display control means 2322 adds 1 to the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation number counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to step 6420. . Note that if the result in Step 6410 is No, the process proceeds to Step 6420.

  Next, game state related information output control processing in steps 6420 to 6422 will be described. First, in step 6420, the display control means 2322 refers to the special post-game state information temporary storage area in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and the main game state is a specific game state (main game probability change game state and It is determined whether or not the state has shifted to the main game short game state. In the case of Yes in step 6420, in step 6422, the display control means 2322 makes full use of the effect display device 2310 or the like to notify that the current game state is the specific game state, and the effect display related information temporary storage means. Based on the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation number counter in 2322c, information regarding the remaining number of times of the specific gaming state is output, and the process proceeds to the next process (holding information management / holding display process in step 6500). Even in the case of No in step 6420, the processing shifts to the next processing (holding information management / holding display processing in step 6500).

Next, the operation of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the timing chart of FIG. First, FIG. 22 shows that “7A” symbol occurs under the situation where the easy winning state type is “state type 0”, and the game state transition mode type related to the game state on the auxiliary game side after the special game is “ It is an effect | action figure when "aspect 7A-0" is determined. It should be noted that in this example, the time value of the opening time of the electric accessory is as follows: release extension flag A on = 5 seconds, release extension flag B on = 3 seconds _, release extension flag C on = 1 second _, release extension flag D on = 0. It is assumed that 3 seconds and the open extension flags A to D off = 0.2 seconds are set.

  First, at the timing of 1 in the figure, “Aspect 7A-0” is determined as the game state transition mode related to the gaming state on the auxiliary game side after the special game, and the first transition mode in “Aspect 7A-0” is determined. The easy winning status type “status type 19” is set. Here, when “status type 19” is set as the easy winning status type, the auxiliary game probability change flag = on, the auxiliary game short time flag = on, and the release extension flag A = on (release extension flags B, C, D = OFF) flag state. Further, the game state on the main game side becomes the main game probability change game state (main game probability change flag = on) and the main game short game state (main game time short flag = on), which is a game state advantageous to the player. And as a result of the game progress in the gaming state, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game starting port electric accessory 2112 is opened for “5 seconds”. The player can expect the next big hit generation while suppressing the decrease of his own ball.

  Next, at the timing of 2 in the figure, the easy-to-win state type according to the second transition mode in “Aspect 7A-0” is triggered by the end of the “fifth” symbol fluctuation of the main game symbol. “State type 18” is set. Here, when “status type 18” is set as the easy winning status type, the auxiliary game probability change flag = on, the auxiliary game short time flag = on, and the release extension flag B = on (release extension flags A, C, D = OFF) flag state. As a result of the progress of the game in the game state, the auxiliary game symbol is continuously won with high probability and high frequency, while the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is opened for “3 seconds” when winning. That is, since the opening time of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 changes from “5 seconds” to “3 seconds”, it becomes difficult to enter the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112. The degree of decrease of the player's ball will increase.

  Next, at the timing of 3 in the figure, the easy-to-win state type according to the third transition mode in “Aspect 7A-0” is triggered by the end of the symbol change of the main game symbol “30th”. “State type 17” is set. Here, when “status type 17” is set as the easy winning status type, the auxiliary game probability change flag = on, the auxiliary game short flag = on, the release extension flag C = on (release extension flags A, B, D) = OFF) flag state. As a result of the progress of the game in the game state, the auxiliary game symbol is continuously won with high probability and high frequency, while the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is opened for “one second” when winning. That is, since the opening time of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 changes from “3 seconds” to “1 second”, it becomes more difficult to enter the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112. The degree of decrease in the player's ball will be further increased. Similarly, at the timing of 4 in the figure, it is assumed that the easy-to-win state type “state type 16” is set when the change in the number of changes of the main game symbol “50” is completed. The opening time of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is “0.3 seconds”, and the player is allowed to proceed with the game in a state substantially the same as the base appearance value in the normal gaming state. It becomes.

  As a result of the above actions, when the next special game occurs at the stage where the number of changes in the main game symbol after the end of the special game is small (early stage), The expected value of the ball will be relatively large. Here, in the conventional pachinko gaming machine (so-called ST machine), which is configured so that the main game probability changing game state continues after the special game ends until the predetermined number of times the main game symbol change ends. If the next special game occurs at this stage, in other words, if the next special game occurs in a state where there are many remaining fluctuations in which the main game probability change game state continues, the player There is a risk of losing a sense of being invalid. However, in this embodiment, when the next special game occurs at an early stage, the player can be given a privilege that the expected value of the game is relatively large. It is possible to avoid having a sense of loss.

  Next, another operation of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the timing chart of FIG. First, when “7A” symbol is generated in the period 1 to 2 in FIG. 22 (period in which the easy winning state type is “state type 19”), the game on the auxiliary game side after the special game is generated. “Aspect 7A-19” is determined as the game state transition aspect type related to the state. Here, when the “mode 7A-19” is determined, the easy winning state type “state type 19” is set from the end of the special game to the end of the main game symbol change “100 times”. The That is, in the period when the main game probability change / short-time game state has continued since the end of the special game, the player can expect the next big hit while suppressing the decrease in his own ball, and is most advantageous to the player. It becomes a game state. On the other hand, for example, when “7A” symbol occurs in the period 3 to 4 in FIG. 22 (period in which the easy-to-win state type is “state type 17”), the auxiliary game side after the special game “Mode 7A-17” is determined as the game state transition mode type related to the game state. Here, when the “mode 7A-17” is determined, the easy winning state type “state type 19” is set from the end of the special game to the end of “10 times” of the main game symbol change. Thereafter, the process proceeds from “state type 18” to “state type 17”. In this way, when the next special game occurs at an early stage, the easy winning state after the end of the next special game acts so as to be advantageous for the player. Therefore, the player strongly desires that the next special game will occur at an early stage.

  In addition, it is preferable that the open state time (theoretical value) of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 per unit time is shortened step by step with the number of fluctuations of the main game symbol after the end of the special game. Here, in the above example, as the number of game symbol fluctuations accumulates, the winning easy state shifts from “state type 19” → “state type 18” → “state type 17” →. In this case, the opening time of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is configured to be gradually shorter, so that the player is adjusted to be advantageous / disadvantageous. As another example, it is possible to realize the above-described preferred mode by singly or in combination with a mode that reduces the winning probability of the auxiliary game symbol or a mode that does not shorten the variation time of the auxiliary game symbol. For example, an example in which “status type 19” → “status type 14” → “status type 9” →.

(Modification 1)
In the present embodiment, as an example of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, the easy-to-win state classification determination reference table), the main game side that triggered the transition to the special game is stopped. Although attention is paid only to the case where the symbol is “7A, 7B” (probability variation jackpot with a limited number of times), it is different from the present embodiment by focusing on other stop symbols and utilizing the easy winning state. Aspects can be conceptualized. Hereinafter, a modified example from this embodiment will be described as a modified example 1 in that case.

  First, in the first modification, attention is paid to the case where the stop symbol on the main game side that has become a trigger for the transition to the special game is “5A, 5B” (time saving hit with a limited number of times). In such a case, as shown in Table 9, after the special game, the game state on the main game side shifts to the main game short game state, and the predetermined number of times (in this example, 100 times) Until the main game symbol variation ends, the variation time of the main game symbol is relatively shortened (see Table 4). Under such a configuration, in the conventional pachinko gaming machine, the game state on the auxiliary game side is advantageous to the player in conjunction with the transition of the game state on the main game side to the short game state on the main game side ( For example, there are many models that are shifted to “status type 19” in this embodiment. With this configuration, in a situation where the main game is in a short game state, the number of times the main game symbol is changed per unit time is increased, and the player can reduce the number of his own balls while suppressing the next big hit. The occurrence can be expected.

  However, since such a state that is advantageous to the player only shifts after the end of the special game, the player can have a sense of achievement that the advantageous state has been acquired by herself. However, there is a problem that the game is not interesting. Therefore, a method for solving such a problem will be described in detail below.

First, Table 13 is an example of an auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (especially a game state determination reference table) in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 1 of the present embodiment. Changes from the present embodiment are about the existence of “state type 19-A1” to “state type 19-A10” and “state type 19-B2” to “state type 19-B10” in the easy-to-win state type. . Here, these easy-to-win states are the flag states in the easy-to-win state “state type 19” advantageous to the player in the present embodiment {auxiliary game probability change flag = on, auxiliary game short flag = on, and release extension flag A =. ON (open extension flags B to D = OFF)}. In other words, when the game progresses in a state where these winnings are easy, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is “5 seconds”. Since the player is in the open state, the player can reduce the decrease in his own ball.

Next, Table 14 is an example of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly an easy-to-win state type determination reference table) in the pachinko gaming machine according to the first modification of the present embodiment. As shown in this example, in the first modification, every time the main game symbol variation ends “once”, “state type 19-A1” to “state type 19-A10” and “state type 19” -B2 "to" state type 19-B10 "are configured to shift from a certain easy-to-win state to an easy-to-win state different from the certain easy-to-win state. Specifically, (1) In a situation where it is in an arbitrary winning easy state (in this example, “state type 0”), the symbol variation of the main game symbol is a specific winning symbol (in this example, the big hit symbol “5A”). ”), The game state is shifted to the gaming state (in this example,“ state type 19-A1 ”) that satisfies the mission activation condition after the special game. (2) Achievement of the first mission in a situation where the easy winning state is the easy winning state {in this example, “state type 19-AX” (X = 1 to 9)}, which is the first mission achievement condition. When the conditions are not satisfied (in this example, when the symbol variation of the main game symbol stops at the loss symbol), the “status type 19-A” to “status type 19-A (X + 1)” at the end of the symbol variation. ”. Further, (3) in the situation where the easy winning state is the easy winning state {in this example, “state type 19-BX” (X = 2 to 9)}, which is the second mission achievement condition, When the mission achievement condition is not satisfied (in this example, when the symbol variation of the main game symbol is stopped at the lost symbol), the “state category 19-BX” to the “state category 19-B ( X + 1) ”. In addition, (4) in a situation where the easy winning state is the easy winning state {“state type 19-AX” (X = 1 to 9)}, which is the first mission achievement condition, the first mission achievement condition is When the game is satisfied {in this example, when the symbol variation of the main game stops at a specific winning symbol (in this example, the small winning symbol “2B”)}, after the special game, “state type 19-AX To “state type 19-B (X + 1)”. Further, (5) in the situation where the easy winning state is the easy winning state {in this example, “state type 19-BX” (X = 2 to 10)} which is the second mission achievement condition, When the mission achievement conditions are met {in this example, when the symbol variation of the main game stops at a specific winning symbol (in this example, the small winning symbol “2B”)}, the player after the special game It shifts to a winning easy state (in this example, “state type 19”) that is advantageous to the player. (6) In a situation where the winning condition is the mission end condition (in this example, “state type 19-A10” or “state type 19-B10”), the mission achievement condition is not satisfied (in this example) Then, when the symbol variation of the main game symbol is stopped by the lost symbol), the state shifts to an easy winning state (in this example, “state type 0”) that is disadvantageous for the player at the end of the symbol variation. It is comprised so that it may have the characteristics of the above (1)-(6), By these characteristics, the new game property which does not exist in the conventional pachinko game machine is realizable.

  Next, FIG. 23 is a flowchart of the gaming state notification control process according to the subroutine of Step 6400 (Modification 1) in FIG. 16 in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 1 of the present embodiment. First, the change from this embodiment is about Step 6430 (Modification 1), and the purpose thereof is based on the new gameability that does not exist in the conventional pachinko gaming machine, as described above, and the fun of the game. It is to execute an effect display for further enhancing the above. That is, in Step 6430 (Modification 1), the display control unit 2322 executes a mission effect display control process to be described later.

  Next, FIG. 24 is a flowchart of the mission effect display control process related to the subroutine of Step 6430 (Modification 1) in FIG. 23 in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 1 of the present embodiment. First, the mission effect in the first modification of the present embodiment is to notify the player of the mission achievement condition determined in advance within the predetermined period and the predetermined period, and the mission achievement condition as the game progresses. This is an effect for raising the player's sense of achievement when the mission achievement condition is satisfied and improving the interest of the game by sequentially notifying the player whether or not the mission has been satisfied. Here, the mission achievement condition in this example is based on the characteristics of (1) to (6) described above when the mission activation condition is satisfied {in this example, the big hit (in this example , After the end of the special game related to the “5A” symbol jackpot generated under the situation where the easy winning state is “state type 0”}, the mission end condition is satisfied (in this example, the main game symbol is “10”). 1st and 2nd mission achievement conditions are satisfied by the end of the fluctuation of “times” (in this example, small hits (in this example, “2B” symbol small hits) occur “twice”) I will supplement that.

  First, in Step 6432 (Variation 1), the display control unit 2322 determines whether or not the mission effect execution flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is off. In the case of Yes in Step 6432 (Modification 1), in Step 6434 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 refers to the special post-game state information temporary storage area in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and the special Whether or not the easy winning state after the game has shifted to a gaming state that satisfies the mission activation condition (in this example, whether or not the state has shifted to “state type 19-A1”), in other words, the easy winning state is “ It is determined whether or not it is after the end of the special game related to the jackpot of the “5A” symbol under the situation of “state type 0”. In the case of Yes in Step 6434 (Modification 1), in Step 6436 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 makes full use of the effect display device 2310 to display a mission start display (for example, “two small hits within 10 revolutions”). "If you hit, the message will show that the number of time reductions will be extended!"). Next, in Step 6438 (Variant 1), the display control unit 2322 clears (zero clears) the counter value Ck of the small hit number counter in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. Next, in Step 6440 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 turns on the mission effect execution flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to Step 6442 (Modification 1). If No in Step 6432 (Modification 1), the process proceeds to Step 6442 (Modification 1). If No in Step 6434 (Modification 1), the next process (holding information management / holding in Step 6500) is performed. Display processing).

  Next, in Step 6442 (Variation 1), the display control means 2322 counts up the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation speed counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c {see Step 6412 (Variation 1) in FIG. } (In other words, whether or not the gaming situation related to the mission has progressed). In the case of Yes in Step 6442 (Variation 1), in Step 6444 (Variation 1), the display control means 2322 refers to the counter value Cz of the drawing rotation speed counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and the counter It is determined whether or not the value Cz is less than “10” (in other words, whether or not the mission end condition is satisfied). In the case of Yes in Step 6444 (Variable 1), in Step 6446 (Variable 1), the display control means 2322 refers to the main-side information temporary storage means 2321a and makes a small hit (in this example, the small hit of the “2B” symbol). ) Has occurred (in other words, whether the first or second mission achievement condition has been satisfied). In the case of Yes in Step 6446 (Modification 1), in Step 6448 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 adds 1 to the counter value Ck of the small hit number counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. Next, in Step 6450 (Variation 1), the display control means 2322 refers to the counter value Ck of the small hit number counter in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and whether the counter value Ck is “2”. It is determined whether or not (in other words, whether or not the first and second mission achievement conditions are satisfied). In the case of Yes in Step 6450 (Modification 1), in Step 6452 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 makes full use of the effect display device 2310 to display a mission completion display (for example, “Mission Success. Message is displayed! ”. Next, in Step 6454 (Variant 1), the display control unit 2322 turns off the mission effect execution flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c, and performs the next process (hold information management / hold display process in Step 6500). ).

  On the other hand, in the case of No in Step 6450 (Modification 1), in Step 6456 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 makes full use of the effect display device 2310 to display the progress of the mission (for example, “one more small hit. Display the message “The number of time reductions is extended!”, And the process proceeds to the next process (holding information management / holding display process in step 6500).

  On the other hand, in the case of No in Step 6444 (Modification 1), in Step 6458 (Modification 1), the display control means 2322 makes full use of the effect display device 2310 to display a mission end display (for example, “Mission failure ... Message is displayed.) Is executed. Next, in Step 6460 (Variant 1), the display control unit 2322 turns off the mission effect execution flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c, and performs the next process (hold information management / hold display process in Step 6500). ). Note that if the answer is No in Step 6442 (Modification 1) or Step 6446 (Modification 1), the process proceeds to the next process (holding information management / holding display process in Step 6500).

  Next, the operation of the pachinko gaming machine according to the first modification of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the timing charts of FIGS. First, FIG. 25 to FIG. 27 show the state after the end of the special game related to the jackpot of the “5A” symbol that occurs in the situation where the winning easy state is “state type 0”. FIG. 25 shows a state in which a small hit has never occurred until the main game symbol finishes changing “10 times” after the special game ends. In addition, FIG. 26 shows a state in which a small hit of the “2B” symbol occurs only once after the special game is finished, until the main game symbol finishes the change of “10 times”. . FIG. 27 shows a state in which, after the end of the special game, the small hit of the “2B” symbol occurs twice before the main game symbol finishes changing “10 times”. Here, as described above, after the special game is over, the mission display device 2310 executes the mission effect, and when the mission achievement condition is satisfied, a privilege is given to the player ( For example, the state is informing that “the number of time reductions is extended if two small hits are made within 10 revolutions!”.

  Next, the timing chart of FIG. 25 will be described. First, after completion of the special game, the game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side is determined as “mode 5A-0”, and based on the game state transition mode type, the easy winning state is “state type 19-A1”. ”. Here, in the situation of “state type 19-A1”, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is opened for “5 seconds”. Therefore, the player is proceeding with the game while reducing the decrease of his own ball.

  Next, the easy winning state is changed from “state type 19-A1” to “state type 19-A2” when the change of the main game symbol which is the first time after the end of the special game is stopped at the lost symbol. Migrate to Similarly, every time the symbol variation of the main game symbol, which is the second to ninth games after the end of the special game, stops at the lost symbol, the easy winning state changes from “state type 19-A2” to “state type 19”. -Sequentially move to “A10”. Here, in the situation of “state type 19-A2” to “state type 19-A10”, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 becomes an open state for “5 seconds”.

  Next, the easy-to-win state shifts from “state type 19-A10” to “state type 0” when the change of the main game symbol, which is the tenth time after the end of the special game, is stopped at the lost symbol. To do. Here, under the condition of “state type 0”, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 becomes difficult to open, and no upper limit is imposed on the end condition of “state type 0”. . That is, since the mission achievement condition “If you hit a small hit twice within 10 revolutions” could not be satisfied, the privilege that “the number of time reductions is extended” is not given to the player.

  Next, the timing chart of FIG. 26 will be described. First, similarly to the action in FIG. 25, after the special game is over, the easy winning state shifts to “state type 19-A1”, and the player proceeds with the game while reducing the decrease of his own ball. Yes.

  Next, the special game related to the small hit is executed when the change in the symbol of the main game symbol which is the first time after the end of the special game is stopped at the small hit symbol “2B”. In addition, after the special game related to the small hit, the game state transition mode type on the auxiliary game side is determined as “mode 2B-19-A1”, and the easy winning state is determined based on the game state transition mode type. The process shifts to “status type 19-B2.” Here, in the situation of “state type 19-B2”, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is opened for “5 seconds”. Therefore, the player is proceeding with the game while reducing the decrease of his own ball.

  Next, the easy-to-win state is set to “state” when the symbol variation of the main game, which is the second time after the end of the special game (the first time after the special game related to the small hit), is stopped at the lost symbol. The process proceeds from “type 19-B2” to “state type 19-B3”. Similarly, every time the special game symbols change from the third game to the ninth game after the end of the special game (the second game to the eighth game after the special game related to the small hit) stop at the losing symbol, The easy winning state sequentially shifts from “state type 19-B3” to “state type 19-B10”. Here, in the situation from “state type 19-B3” to “state type 19-B10”, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of the win, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 becomes an open state for “5 seconds”.

  Next, the easy-to-win state is set to “state” when the symbol change of the main game, which is the tenth time after the end of the special game (the ninth time after the special game related to the small hit), stops at the lost symbol. The process shifts from “type 19-B10” to “state type 0”. Here, under the condition of “state type 0”, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 becomes difficult to open, and no upper limit is imposed on the end condition of “state type 0”. . That is, since the mission achievement condition “If you hit a small hit twice within 10 revolutions” could not be satisfied, the privilege that “the number of time reductions is extended” is not given to the player.

  Next, the timing chart of FIG. 27 will be described. First, similar to the operation in FIGS. 25 and 26, after the special game is over, the easy-to-win state shifts to “state type 19-A1”, and the player plays a game while reducing the decrease of his own ball. Progressing.

  Next, the special game related to the small hit is executed when the symbol change of the main game symbol which is the third time after the end of the special game is stopped at the small hit symbol “2B”. After the special game related to the small hit, the auxiliary game side game state transition mode type is determined to be “mode 2B-19-A3”, and the easy-to-win state is determined based on the game state transition mode type. The process shifts to “status type 19-B4”.

  Next, the second time when the symbol change of the main game, which is the sixth time after the end of the special game (the third time after the special game related to the small hit), stops at the small hit symbol “2B”. A special game related to the small hit is executed. After the special game for the second small hit, the auxiliary game side game state transition mode type is determined to be “mode 2B-19-B6”, and a prize is awarded based on the game state transition mode type. The easy state shifts to “state type 19”. Here, under the condition of “state type 19”, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and high frequency, and at the time of winning, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is in an open state of “5 seconds”. In addition, after the special game related to the second small hit, it continues until the symbol variation of “94 times” of the main game symbol is completed. In other words, since the mission achievement condition of “If you hit a small hit twice within 10 revolutions” was satisfied, the player was given the privilege of “extension of time reduction”, and as a result, after the special game ended Until the symbol variation of “100 times” of the game symbol is completed, the player can acquire an advantageous state in which the next big hit can be expected while reducing the decrease of his own ball.

  As a result of the above effects, the player can have a sense of accomplishment that the advantageous state has been acquired by himself, and the mission effect is not a mere appearance effect that is common in conventional machines, This makes it possible to improve the fun of the game.

  In the first modification of the present embodiment, only one example of the various conditions related to the mission is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the game state transition mode related to the game state on the auxiliary game side is changed (re-started) when the special game ends on the “5A” symbol on the first main game side and on the “2B” symbol on the second main game side. It is illustrated only when the game is set), but is not limited to this, and is configured to be changed when the special game ends related to other winning symbols (for example, per “5B” symbol or “2A” symbol) May be. In addition, even if the symbol is not a winning symbol, it may be configured to change when a specific losing symbol is stopped. In that case, a plurality of types of losing symbols are provided and the plurality of types of losing symbols are triggered. It may be configured to change as follows.

  In the first modification of the present embodiment, as shown in Table 14, when the winning easy state shifts to a winning easy state (in this example, “state type 0”) that is disadvantageous for the player, There is no upper limit on the conditions for exiting the easy-to-win state. That is, after the transition to the easy-to-win state, which is disadvantageous for the player, until the next special game occurs, it is configured not to shift to another easy-to-win state. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In that case, an upper limit is set for the end condition when the player enters the easy-to-win state that is disadvantageous to the player, and when the end condition is satisfied, the easy-to-win state that satisfies the mission trigger condition again (this example) Then, an example of a configuration for shifting to “state type 19-A1”) can be given. For example, in the case of “Aspect 5A-4”, the end condition (in this example, the end condition of the transition aspect 11) at the time of shifting to the winning easy state that is disadvantageous for the player is set to a predetermined number of fluctuations (in this example, “ 100 ”), and a transition mode (in this example, transition to the winning condition (in this example, the same configuration as transition modes 1 to 11) in which the mission activation condition is satisfied again). This is newly provided as Aspect 12 and later. By configuring in this way, for example, as shown in FIG. 25, when the mission end condition is satisfied without satisfying the mission achievement condition (in this example, the main game symbol is changed by “10 times”). In the case where no small hit has occurred before the game is finished), the main game symbol is a predetermined number of times of change (in this example, “100”) even if the next special game does not occur. When the change is finished, the mission as described above can be activated again, and the fun of the game can be further improved.

  In the first modification of the present embodiment, the mission ends based on the characteristics (1) to (6) of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (especially the reference table for determining the winning easy state type). By the time the condition is satisfied (in this example, the main game symbol ends the change of “10 times”), the first and second mission achievement conditions are satisfied (in this example, the small hit is “2 times” "In the present example, a privilege is given to the player (in this example, the state shifts to a state advantageous to the player (in this example," status type 19 ")). The mission end condition is “10 times” and the mission achievement condition is “2 times”. In this case, in order to change the former condition, the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b is configured so that the range of X in “state type 19-AX” and “state type 19-BX” increases or decreases. Can be changed. Further, in order to change the latter condition, an easy winning state different from “state type 19-AX” and “state type 19-BX” {for example, “state type 19-CX” (X = 3 to 10), etc. } And the configuration of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b may be changed so as to shift to “state type 19” after passing through the different easy-to-win state. With this configuration, various conditions can be set as mission conditions. More specifically, for example, when “state type 19-AX”, “state type 19-BX”, and “state type 19-CX” are provided, the mission achievement condition is “small hit within 10 revolutions”. It can be configured to occur three times. Further, in addition to the state of transition from “status type 19-AX” → “status type 19-BX” → “status type 19-CX” → “status type 19”, “status type 19-AX” → “status” By providing a mode that transitions to "Type 19-CX" and a mode that shifts from "State type 19-AX" to "State type 19" (providing such a small hit symbol that shifts in this way) Easy-to-satisfy small hit symbol (in the latter case, fulfilling the mission achievement condition by generating a small hit once under the mission achievement condition of “three small hits within 10 revolutions”) Can be provided, and the fun of the game can be further improved. Further, for example, “state type 19-AX (X = 1 to 3)”, “state type 19-BX (X = 1 to 3)”, “state type 19-CX (X = 1 to 3)” and “ “State type 19-DX (X = 1 to 3)” is provided, and triggered by the small hit, “State type 19-AX (X = 1 to 3)” → “State type 19-B1” is transferred, And “status type 19-BX (X = 1 to 3)” → “status type 19-C1” is transferred, and “status type 19-CX (X = 1 to 3)” → “status type 19-D1”. And “state type 19-DX (X = 1 to 3)” → “state type 19” is configured to “continue four times that small hits occur within 3 rotations”. This can be set as a mission achievement condition. That is, it is possible to set a mission achievement condition in which a new completion condition and an achievement condition are set when one achievement condition is satisfied before the one completion condition is satisfied.

  In the first modification of the present embodiment, when the mission achievement condition “If you hit a small hit twice within 10 revolutions” is satisfied, the main game symbol “100 times” will be displayed after the special game ends. The state advantageous to the player is continued until the minute symbol variation ends. That is, a series of state transitions of “state type 19-AX” → “state type 19-BX” → “state type 19” → “state type 0” is “100 times” of the main game symbol after the end of the special game. It is configured to be executed until the minute symbol variation ends (for this reason, in Table 14, the number of times of end variation when moving to “state type 19” is different). However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the number of end fluctuations when shifting to “state type 19” may be set to one predetermined number (for example, 100 times). By configuring in this way, it is possible to configure such that a state advantageous to the player continues after the transition to “state type 19” until the symbol variation of “100 times” of the main game symbol is completed. It becomes.

  In the first modification of the present embodiment, in order to realize the mission contents as described above, the contents of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (especially the reference table for determining the easy-to-win state type determination) are used. Although the method to change is taken, it is not limited to this, The method to change the specific game start / end determination processing related to the first main game, the second main game, and the auxiliary game shown in FIG. 12 is adopted. Also good. A modification example in this case will be described as a modification example 1-2. In the modified example 1-2, as in the modified example 1, when the mission activation condition is satisfied {in this example, the big hit that occurred in a specific situation (in this example, the easy winning state is “state type 0 ”After the special game related to“ 5A ”jackpot that occurred under the situation“ ”, the mission end condition is satisfied (in this example, the main game symbol ends the variation of“ 10 times ”) By the time, the first and second mission achievement conditions are satisfied {in this example, the small hit (in this example, the “2B” symbol small hit) occurs “twice”} doing.

  Next, FIG. 28 shows the first main game according to the subroutine of steps 1450 (1) and (2) (variant 1-2) in FIG. 10 in the pachinko gaming machine according to the modified example 1-2 of the present embodiment. It is a flowchart of the specific game start / end determination process related to the second main game and the auxiliary game. First, the changes from the present embodiment are about Step 1470 (Modification 1-2) to Step 1476 (Modification 1-2), and the purpose thereof is to change the flowchart, and the mission contents as described above. Is to realize. That is, in step 1470 (modified 1-2), the specific game end condition determining means 1181 refers to the winning easy state transition mode temporary storage means 1192c and determines whether or not the mission execution condition is satisfied (for example, on the auxiliary game side). Whether or not the game state transition mode type is determined as “mode 5A-0” is determined. In the case of Yes in Step 1470 (Modification 1-2), in Step 1471 (Modification 1-2), the specific game end condition determination means 1181 determines whether or not the counter value Cm of the rotation number counter 1181a is less than “10”. (In other words, whether or not the mission end condition is satisfied) is determined. In the case of Yes in Step 1471 (Modification 1-2), in Step 1472 (Modification 1-2), the specific game end condition determination means 1181 refers to the first and second main game symbol related information temporary storage means 1191a, It is determined whether or not a small hit has occurred (in other words, whether or not the first or second mission achievement condition has been satisfied). In the case of Yes in Step 1472 (Modification 1-2), in Step 1473 (Modification 1-2), the specific game end condition determination means 1181 sets the counter value Ck of the small hit count counter in the game related information temporary storage means 1190. Add one. Next, in Step 1474 (Modification 1-2), the specific game end condition determination means 1181 determines whether or not the counter value Ck of the small hit number counter in the game related information temporary storage means 1190 is “2” (in other words, Then, it is determined whether or not the first and second mission achievement conditions are satisfied. In the case of Yes in Step 1474 (Modification 1-2), in Step 1475 (Modification 1-2), the specific game control means 1180 determines the auxiliary game probability change flag and the auxiliary game short time flag in the auxiliary game side game state temporary storage means 1192b. And all the flag states of the release extension flags (in this example, the release extension flags A to D) are set to ON (in other words, a gaming state advantageous to the player), and the process proceeds to Step 1490. On the other hand, in the case of No in Step 1471 (Modification 1-2), in Step 1476 (Modification 1-2), the specific game end condition determination means 1181 counts the counter value of the small hit count counter in the game related information temporary storage means 1190. Ck is cleared (zero cleared), and the process proceeds to step 1490.

  By changing the processing as described above, it is possible to produce an operation substantially similar to the operation shown by the timing charts of FIGS. Further, since it is not necessary to change the contents of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b, the table capacity of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b is shown in Tables 13 and 14. It is possible to avoid a situation in which the capacity of the main control ROM is compressed due to an increase in the memory.

(Modification 2)
In the present embodiment (and modification example 1), as an example of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, the easy-to-win state type determination reference table), this is a trigger for the transition to the special game. The main game side's stop symbol is “7A, 7B” (and “5A, 5B”). However, by focusing on the other stop symbols and utilizing the easy winning state, A different aspect from the embodiment (and modified example 1) can be conceptualized. Hereinafter, a modified example from this embodiment will be described as a modified example 2 in that case.

  First, in the second modification, attention is paid to the case where the stop symbols on the main game side that have become the opportunity to shift to the special game are “3A, 3B” and “1A, 1B”. In such a case, as shown in Table 9, after the special game in which the main game side stop symbol is “3A, 3B”, the game state on the main game side is the main game probability change game state and the main game short time. While shifting to the gaming state, after the special game where the stop symbol on the main game side is “1A, 1B”, the state shifts to the main gaming normal gaming state. Also, as shown in Table 8, if the main game side's stop symbol is “3A, 3B” and “1A, 1B”, the special game content (the big winning opening to be released, the number of rounds, the large The winning opening opening pattern and the like are the same, and the special game is completed in a short period of time, so that it is difficult to visually determine which special game related to which stop symbol has been executed. Under such a configuration, there are many types of conventional pachinko gaming machines that notify the gaming state immediately after the end of the special game. That is, immediately after the end of the special game where the stop symbol on the main game side is “3A, 3B” (so-called sudden probability change), the player is informed of the transition to a game state advantageous to the player, Immediately after the end of the special game where the stop symbol is “1A, 1B” (so-called “sudden normal hit”), it is notified that the game state is shifted to a disadvantageous state for the player. Then, by configuring the notification content to be able to be transmitted to the player by a highly interesting production (for example, reproduction of a moving image simulating roulette), the interest just after the special game ends is enhanced.

  However, after the notification content is transmitted to the player, the game is only progressed based on the predetermined game state. In particular, when the notification is made that the game state is disadvantageous to the player, There is a problem that interest in the progress of the game is significantly reduced. Therefore, a method for solving such a problem will be described in detail below.

First, Table 15 shows an example of the first main game variation mode determination lottery table 1141a-2 and the second main game variation mode determination lottery table 1142a-2 in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 2 of the present embodiment. It is shown. As shown in this example, in the modified example 2, regardless of whether or not the main game is in the short game state, the expected value of the variation time selected at the time of the loss (selection probability × variation time in each loss table) Are configured to be the same. That is, the player is configured to make it difficult to guess the current gaming state only by visually recognizing the fluctuation time of the main game symbol.

Next, Table 16 is an example of the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, an easy-to-win state type determination reference table) in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 2 of the present embodiment. As shown in this example, in the modified example 2, in the first variation after the end of the special game related to “3A, 3B” or “1A, 1B”, the easy winning state is “state type 14” or “ The status type is set to “0”. Here, in a situation where the easy winning state is “state type 14” and “state type 0”, the auxiliary game short time flag is set to OFF, so in any easy winning state, 1 after the end of the special game. At the time of change, the auxiliary game symbol will always change for a long time (as shown in Table 6, in this example, long-time change = change time T _Y = 30 seconds). When the easy winning state is “state type 0”, it is difficult to open the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 after the long-term fluctuation of the auxiliary game symbol (auxiliary game probability change flag = off). On the other hand, when the winning easy state is “state type 14”, the second main game start port electric motor is operated after the long-term fluctuation of the auxiliary game symbol ends. The accessory 2112 is configured to be easily opened (auxiliary game probability change flag = on, release extension flag A = on). In addition, after the second change after the end of the special game related to “3A, 3B”, the winning easy state shifts to “state type 19” and the main game symbol is a predetermined number of times (100 times in this example). Until this change is completed, the game state is configured to be advantageous to the player.

  Next, FIG. 29 is a flowchart of the gaming state notification control process related to the subroutine of Step 6400 (Modification 2) in FIG. 16 in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 2 of the present embodiment. First, the change from the present embodiment is about Step 6430 (Modification 2), and the purpose is to execute an effect display for enhancing the interest of the game after the special game ends. That is, in Step 6430 (Variation 2), the display control means 2322 executes a time difference short notice effect display control process which will be described later.

  Next, FIG. 30 is a flowchart of the time difference notifying effect display control process related to the subroutine of Step 6430 (Modification 2) in FIG. 29 in the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 2 of the present embodiment. First, the time difference notification effect in the modified example 2 of the present embodiment is to notify immediately after the end of the special game that the transition has been made even if the game state has shifted to a game state advantageous to the player after the end of the special game. Instead, it is an effect for improving the interest of the game after the end of the special game by notifying that the transition has occurred after a predetermined period of time.

First, in Step 6432 (Variation 2), the display control unit 2322 determines whether or not the time difference short notification effect executing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is off. In the case of Yes in Step 6432 (Modified 2), in Step 6434 (Modified 2), the display control means 2322 refers to the special post-game state information temporary storage area in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and the special It is determined whether or not the easy-to-win state after the game has shifted to “state type 14”, in other words, whether or not the execution condition of the time difference notification effect has been satisfied. In the case of Yes in Step 6434 (Variation 2), in Step 6436 (Variation 2), the display control means 2322 has a predetermined time (for example, the length of the auxiliary game symbol) in the notification timing clock timer in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. Time variation time T _Y = 30 seconds) is set. Next, in Step 6438 (Variation 2), the display control means 2322 turns on the time difference time shortage effect execution executing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to Step 6442 (Variation 2). If No in Step 6432 (Modification 2), the process proceeds to Step 6442 (Modification 2). If No in Step 6434 (Modification 2), the next process (holding information management / holding in Step 6500) is performed. Display processing).

  Next, in Step 6442 (Variation 2), the display control unit 2322 determines whether or not the notification timing counting flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is off. In the case of Yes in Step 6442 (Variation 2), in Step 6444 (Variation 2), the display control means 2322 refers to the main-side information temporary storage means 2321a, and after the special game, the auxiliary game symbol side makes a new symbol fluctuation. Determine if it has started. In the case of Yes in Step 6444 (Modification 2), in Step 6446 (Modification 2), the display control means 2322 starts the notification timing timer in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. Next, in Step 6448 (Variation 2), the display control unit 2322 turns on the notification timing timing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c, and performs the next processing (holding information management / holding display processing in Step 6500). ).

  On the other hand, if No in Step 6442 (Modified 2), in Step 6452 (Modified 2), the display control means 2322 determines whether or not the timer value of the notification timing timer in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is 0. Determine whether. In the case of Yes in Step 6452 (Modification 2), in Step 6454 (Modification 2), the display control means 2322 uses the effect display device 2310 to indicate that the current gaming state is a gaming state advantageous to the player. Notification (for example, a message display of “Entering the short-time gaming state!”) Is executed. Next, in Step 6456 (Modification 2), the display control unit 2322 turns off the notification timing counting flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. Next, in Step 6458 (Variant 2), the display control unit 2322 turns off the time difference time shortage effect executing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c, and performs the next process (hold information management / hold in step 6500). Display processing). Note that if the answer is No in Step 6444 (Modification 2) or Step 6452 (Modification 2), the process proceeds to the next process (holding information management / holding display process in Step 6500).

  Next, the operation of the pachinko gaming machine according to Modification 2 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the timing chart of FIG. First, the upper part of the figure shows a state after the end of the special game related to the jackpot of the “1A” symbol generated in the situation where the easy winning state is “state type 0”. Also, the lower part of the figure shows a state after the end of the special game related to the jackpot of the “3A” symbol generated in the situation where the easy winning state is “state type 0”.

  First, at the timing of 1 in the figure, the special game ends and the symbol variation of the main game symbol and the auxiliary game symbol is started. Here, in the upper part of the figure (at the time of “1A” symbol), the main game probability change flag and the main game short flag = off, easy winning state = “state type 0” (auxiliary game probability change flag = off, auxiliary game short time) This is a symbol variation under the condition of “flag = off”. On the other hand, in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), the main game probability change flag and the main game short flag = on, easy winning state = “state type 14” (auxiliary game probability change flag = on, auxiliary game short flag = Off). That is, in the upper part of the figure (when “1A” symbol is hit), the auxiliary game symbol is selected with a high probability, and in the lower part of the figure (when “3A” symbol is hit), the auxiliary game symbol is high. While the winning symbol is selected with probability, the symbol variation time of the auxiliary game symbol is long (30 seconds in this example).

  Next, at the timing 2 in the figure, the first symbol variation of the main game symbol after the end of the special game is completed. Here, in the upper part of the figure (at the time of “1A” symbol), the easy winning state = “state type 0” is maintained. On the other hand, in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), the easy winning state shifts from “state type 14” to “state type 19”. At this timing, since the auxiliary game symbol is changing, the symbol change continues based on the symbol change time of the auxiliary game symbol at the timing 1 in the drawing.

  Next, at the timing 3 in the figure, the first symbol variation of the auxiliary game symbols after the end of the special game is completed. Here, in the upper part of the same figure (at the time of “1A” symbol), the auxiliary game symbol stops at the lost symbol, and the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 maintains the closed state. On the other hand, in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), the auxiliary game symbol stops at the symbol and the second main game starting port electric accessory 2112 is in the open state of “5 seconds” (at this timing, The easy winning state is “state type 19”). Further, in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), the time difference short notification effect display control processing is executed, and notification that the player is in an advantageous gaming state at this timing (for example, “ The message “Enter the short-time gaming state!” Is executed). And in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), after the timing of 4 in the figure, the auxiliary game symbol is won with high probability and frequency based on the fact that the easy winning state is “state type 19”. In addition, at the time of winning, the second main game start port electric accessory 2112 is opened for “5 seconds”.

  Thus, until the timing 3 in the figure is reached, it is difficult to visually determine whether or not the current gaming state is a gaming state advantageous to the player. Therefore, for example, if the player is informed of false information that the game state has shifted to an unfavorable game state at the timing 1 in the lower part of the figure (at the time of “3A” symbol), the player Recognizes that it has suddenly shifted to an advantageous gaming state at the timing of 3 in the figure, so that it will be satisfied that the advantageous gaming state has been acquired, and the interest of the game after the end of the special game It can be improved.

  In addition, when comprised like the example 2 of a change of this embodiment, it is comprised so that the 2nd main game start opening electrically-driven accessory 2112 may not be in an open | released state as much as possible at the timing of 3 in the figure of FIG. It is desirable to keep it (for example, assuming that an auxiliary game symbol that starts to fluctuate during a special game is stopped and displayed at this timing). From this point of view, the winning probability is set to a very low probability (for example, the winning probability is set to 1/65536) in the electric player opening / rejection lottery table 1135d (for auxiliary game normal use). Is preferred. Similarly, it is desirable to configure the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 to be in an open state as much as possible at the timing of 3 in the lower part of the figure (when “3A” symbol is hit). It is preferable to set the winning probability to an extremely high probability (for example, to set the winning probability to 65535/65536) in the electric accessory release success / failure lottery table 1135d (for auxiliary game probability change time). . Note that “setting to an extremely low probability” means, for example, that the numerator of the lottery probability value is set to the minimum value (for example, 1) in the predetermined lottery probability, and more preferably the predetermined lottery probability. This means that the denominator of the value is increased (for example, 65536). Further, “setting to an extremely high probability” means that the numerator of the lottery probability value is set to the maximum value {for example, (denominator −1)} at a predetermined lottery probability, and more preferably the predetermined lottery value. This means that the denominator of the lottery probability value is increased (for example, 65536).

  Further, the action as shown in FIG. 31 assumes a situation in which the number of reserved main game symbols and auxiliary game symbols remains after the special game ends. However, the number of reserved main game symbols and auxiliary game symbols does not always remain after the end of the special game (particularly, as in the special game per “1A” and “3A” in this embodiment). In the case of a real game with no prize balls, it is possible that the number of reserves does not remain). From this point of view, when the number of reserves of the main game symbol or the auxiliary game symbol does not remain, the game state is not limited to being notified at the timing of 3 in the figure, for example, before the timing of 1 in the figure It is possible to prevent the player from unintentionally stopping the game by notifying the gaming state. On the other hand, if the number of holdings of the main game symbol remains after the end of the special game (for example, when 8 holdings remain), the player plays the game until all of the holdings are exhausted. Since there is a low possibility of stopping, the scheduled time until all the remaining number of remaining holds is consumed is derived, and at any timing within the scheduled time, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 You may comprise so that symbol change time (change time of a main game symbol and / or change time of an auxiliary game symbol) may be adjusted so that it may be in an open state.

In the second modification of the present embodiment, the auxiliary game symbol is always changed for a long time at the first change after the end of the special game at the time of “3A, 3B” hit (so-called sudden probability change). However, it is not limited to this. In this case, for example, as shown in Table 17, an example of changing the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, the easy-to-win state classification determination reference table) can be given. By configuring in this way, the current game state is a game state advantageous for the player until the main game symbol has finished changing a predetermined number of times (in this example, 10 times) after the special game ends. It is difficult to discriminate whether or not. Therefore, the expectation regarding whether or not the game state is advantageous for the player can be maintained until the change of the main game symbol for a predetermined number of times is completed (for example, the winning symbol is related to the winning symbol). not special game after the end of the "to big hit 10 revolutions a chance zone!" by displaying a message such as, at least in the display period of time, it is possible to obscure the advance in stop of special game after the end of the game) .

Further, as shown in Table 18, in the situation where the player is staying in the easy-to-win state according to the transition mode 1, when “3A, 3B” hit (so-called sudden probability change) occurs, the easy-to-win state type May be configured to be changed. By configuring in this way, “3A, 3B” per game, which is a real prize-ball-free special game, is generated within a period in which a sense of expectation regarding whether or not the game state has shifted to an advantageous game state is maintained. In other words, in a case where a hit that has almost no meaning in the progress of the game (delaying the transition to “state type 19” advantageous to the player is delayed) occurs to the player, It becomes possible to grant. For example, as shown in this example, every time “3A, 3B” occurs within the period, the easy winning state shifts from “state type 1” → “state type 11” → “state type 16”. By configuring as above, the opening / closing frequency of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is increased (the base opening value is low because the opening time is short). That is, after the end of the real special ball-free special game within the period, the player can visually recognize the opening / closing frequency of the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 so that the easy winning state is advantageous for the player thereafter. Whether or not to shift to the state “state type 19” can be estimated in advance (for example, if the real prize-ball-free special game is triggered by, for example, “1A” symbols or small hits, the second It does not increase the switching frequency of the main game start-up hole electric auditors products 2112, after winning easy state in some cases you do not want to migrate to an advantageous winning easy state "status type 19" for the player) result, misjudge the advance in stopping of the game In this way, the player is given a privilege that the loss can be avoided.

As another example of utilizing the easy winning state, for example, as shown in Table 19, the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b (particularly, the easy winning state type determination reference table) is changed. Thus, it is possible to improve the interest of the game when the main game game state is switched. First, as shown in this example, at the time of occurrence of “3A, 3B” (so-called sudden probability change hit), is it a win in a situation that is an easy winning state “state type 0” that is disadvantageous for the player? Therefore, it is difficult to visually determine whether or not it is a win in a situation where the easy winning state “state type 1” is disadvantageous for the player (both “state type 0” and “state type 1” The main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is in a state in which it is difficult to open, and for example, as shown at the time of hitting “1A, 1B”, it is configured to periodically shift from one state to the other state. For). Then, after the special game related to “3A, 3B” in the situation where the easy-to-win state is “state type 0”, the main game symbol ends the predetermined number of times (in this example, 100 times). Until the game is shifted to the easy-to-win state “state type 19” (that is, the state in which the second main game starting port electric accessory 2112 is easy to open), the easy-to-win state is advantageous to the player. The state shifts to “state type 1”. Here, the main game game state is changed from the main game probability change game state to the main game non-probability change game state (the main game short game state continues when the main game symbol has finished the symbol variation of “100 times”. ). On the other hand, after the end of the special game related to “3A, 3B” in the situation where the winning easy state “state type 1” is disadvantageous for the player, the main game symbol is a predetermined number of times (in this example, 100 times). After shifting to the easy winning state “state type 19” advantageous to the player until the symbol change is completed, the easy winning state “state type 19” advantageous again to the player via the transition to “state type 14”. Migrate to That is, the main game symbol has transitioned from the main game probability change game state to the main game non-probability change game state (the main game short game state is continued), triggered by the end of the predetermined number of symbol changes, The second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 maintains an easily opened state. Therefore, similar to the action shown in FIG. 31, the player recognizes that the player has suddenly shifted to an auxiliary game state advantageous to the player at the timing when the main game game state has shifted to the main game non-probable variable game state. Therefore, the interest of the game after the transition from the main game probability change game state to the main game non-probability change game state can be improved.

  Also, as shown at the time of “1A, 1B” in Table 19, the easy winning state in a specific section (in this example, the transition mode N) is set to “state type 1” regardless of the transition mode type. It is comprised so that. By configuring in this way, when “3A, 3B” hit occurs in the specific section, in other words, the main game symbol has been played a predetermined number of times (in this example, from the previous “1A, 1B” hit) When the “3A, 3B” hit occurs after completing the symbol variation for 1000 times, the main game symbol is a specific number of times after the special game related to the “3A, 3B” (100 times in this example). When the minute symbol variation is finished, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is always maintained in an easily opened state. In other words, in a situation where the next big hit does not occur over a long period of time from the previous “1A, 1B” (so-called “Hamari”), the expected value of the ball that can be acquired with the next occurrence of the big hit can be increased. It is possible to give the player a privilege (so-called ceiling function) to the player, and it is possible to improve the interest of the game at the time of the occurrence of humming. Since the number of symbol fluctuations (so-called ceiling arrival frequency) that activates the ceiling function is determined in advance based on the winning symbol, it is possible to entertain the game by setting a different ceiling reaching frequency for each winning symbol. Can be improved.

Furthermore, it is possible to increase the privilege given to the player by such a ceiling function. For example, as shown in Table 20, the easy-to-win state in a specific section (in this example, the transition mode 3 and the transition mode N) is an easy-to-win state that is advantageous to the player regardless of the transition mode type “state type 19 "Is set to". " By configuring in this way, when the number of symbol fluctuations of the main game symbol is accumulated until the specific section is reached, the second main game start opening electric accessory 2112 is shifted to a state where it can be easily opened. (The section staying in the transition mode 3 in this example is a so-called chance zone, and the section staying in the transition mode N is the so-called ceiling). Here, in the present embodiment, in the high profit special game (in this example, “7A, 7B” per symbol) that can obtain many balls when a big hit occurs, the second main game symbol side is first. It is configured to be selected more frequently than the main game symbol side (see Table 3). In other words, when the player reaches the specific section, the player can receive a privilege that the game can be advanced with a high base game value and that a high profit special game is easily selected when a big hit occurs. It becomes possible. Further, the specific section is configured to be different for each transition mode type (for example, in the case of “mode 1A-0”, the winning easy state in “transition mode 2” is set to “state type 19”, and “mode 1A” In the case of “−1”, the easy-to-win state in “Transition Aspect 3” is set to “State Type 19”), which makes it difficult to visually determine the timing to reach the specific section. It is possible to further improve the interest of the company.

  In addition, in this embodiment, although it illustrated about the model (1st type 1 type multifunction machine) which mixed two conventional 1st type pachinko machines, it is not limited to this. In particular, in the second modification of the present embodiment, the present invention is applied to a model in which two conventional first-class pachinko machines (with small hit development) are mixed (first-class first-class small hit development multifunction machine). By doing so, it is possible to further increase the privilege given to the player by the ceiling function as described above. Here, the first type first type small hit development multifunction machine is provided in a predetermined sorting device (for example, a so-called “Kroon” distributed to any one of a plurality of holes according to the rolling mode of the game ball).
