Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine or the like capable of offering inexhaustible interest, and enhancing fun by providing a bonus stock function, and adopting a specific stock discharge method.SOLUTION: In a normal game state, a stock lottery (a back stock number, a discharge stock number, and types) is held by a stock lottery table corresponding to a combination lottery result. The back stock number is a pseudo bonus or a pseudo ST that is not immediately discharged, but is discharged when a discharge lottery is won. Conversely, even if the discharge lottery is won, the pseudo bonus cannot be discharged when the back stock does not exist at all, and a discharge winning result is abandoned. The discharge stock number is immediately discharged, and is discharge as the pseudo bonus or the pseudo ST via a standby state. For example, the stock lottery is held in a state in which the back stock number is 0, and the back stock number becomes 1 and the discharge stock number becomes 1 in winning in the case of two back stocks and one discharge stock.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 33

Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine (rotating game machine) called a pachislot using a medal as a game medium or a pachilot using a pachinko ball as a game medium.

  In the present invention, the control steps or control procedures for realizing the method are as follows: semiconductor memory, LD (laser disk), HD (hard disk), FD (flexible disk), MD (mini disk), CD (Compact disc), DVD (digital versatile disc or digital video disc), or a program (for example, game software) recorded on an information storage medium such as a blue ray disc itself.

  In recent years, games using a swivel type game machine called a pachislot machine have been actively performed in conventional pachinko halls and pachislot halls. There is also a spinning-type game machine called a pacilot (or parrot) that performs the above-described spinning-type game using a pachinko ball used in a pachinko machine (bullet-type game machine) as a game medium. In video game machines such as amusement facilities, and PCs and game machines of general households via the Internet, a substitute game called a token (ie, “game medium”) is used to make a revolving game. A simulation game is being simulated.

  For example, in the normal game of the above-described spinning-reel type gaming machine, if the player inserts a predetermined number (a predetermined amount) of game medals (game media, credits or tokens) and then operates the start lever, a bonus, multiple The internal lottery (or also referred to as “internal lottery”) of a replay role (replaying role), and multiple reels (mostly three or four reel drums) from above Rotate downward and start a variable display game that fluctuates a plurality of symbols (usually these symbols are drawn on a reel tape and affixed on each drum) arranged on the drum. At the same time, when the player operates the stop button corresponding to each drum and the symbols such as bells, watermelons, cherries, etc., which are won internally, are displayed on the active line in a predetermined combination, a prize is awarded. About 15 game medals are paid out, but when replay (re-game) is activated when the replay symbol is displayed on the active line, the game medals are not inserted (or the number of games inserted in the previous game is input as it is) And re-playing state where the next normal game can be performed.

  In particular, in the case of a revolving type game machine called A type, a big bonus (1 type BB or 2 type BB) is won internally according to the result of the internal lottery of the normal game, and specified by individual stop operation of the reel drum Big bonus game mode (BB game mode: continuous action of actors) which is the most advantageous game mode for the player when symbols (for example, red 7 symbol and blue 7 symbol) are stopped and displayed on the active line. A large amount of game medals can be acquired at once. In addition, when the regular bonus is won and the bar symbols are arranged on the active line as a specific symbol, a regular bonus game (RB game) is executed, and although it does not reach the BB game, a corresponding game medal can be obtained. In any case, for a player, the establishment of these bonus games is the biggest concern in the spinning-type game. When a bonus game is won or released as a result of executing the internal lottery, a special symbol (7 symbols or bar symbols) is stored by setting a bonus flag in a data storage area such as RAM or RWM. Until these are complete, the flag is carried over to the subsequent variable display game.

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

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

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

  However, even in such a strict regulatory situation, some deregulation has been made, and as a result of this, a new device was developed, and as a result, a slot machine equipped with an ART function (assist replay time function) was developed. . This ART function is a symbol stop operation procedure (the operation sequence of the stop switch and the operation timing for aiming the color of the bonus symbol) for winning the internal winning small role in the high probability replay state where replay is easy to win. ) With a liquid crystal display and voice, and is a function to assist (assist), and is currently the mainstream of the No. 5 slot machine.

  Furthermore, an AT machine has been developed that maintains the state in which the bonus combination is won internally and increases the winning probability of replay during normal games. The AT machine is equipped with an assist bonus (third bonus) that activates the assist function. When the AT bonus is won, the correct push order is notified when the push order small role is won internally. Thus, a small combination with the largest number of payouts among a plurality of small combinations selected at the same time is taken.

  By the way, as AT's original technology developed by the applicant (Japanese Patent No. 4428725), if a single symbol small part is elected internally and the stop button operation procedure is correct, a predetermined symbol (for example, a bell symbol) is won on multiple lines. On the other hand, there is a method of stopping on a small number of lines with an incorrect answer. Then, when the AT is won, the player is notified of the correct operation procedure, and the number of medals obtained is differentiated. Furthermore, since a large number of medals can be obtained without reducing the number of hand-held medals during RT, the game performance can be improved by creating a wave of balls.

  In addition, as the applicant's original technology, a bonus with a small number of payouts is frequently won, and the operation procedure and timing of the stop button are notified during ART, thereby releasing the bonus and acquiring a large number of medals. (Patent No. 4679654, Patent No. 4597249, Patent No. 4600944: Called pseudo-probability or neostock).

  However, in this pseudo-probability change technology, when a bonus combination is elected alone, the bonus symbols are automatically arranged regardless of the stop operation. I won to win the bonus role.

  In addition, even if the bonus combination has already been won and the bonus flag is set, if the replay is won at the same time by random lottery, the replay symbol will be drawn preferentially and the replay will always win, so the bonus combination cannot be won. .

  In other words, since the area that should be lost is the winning area for one small role, the lost area is small, and the RT state that is preferable for the player becomes a non-continuous state where the bonus combination cannot be released.

  According to the present invention, a plurality of pseudo bonuses (assist bonuses) are added to a revolving game machine equipped with a real bonus, a bonus stock function forbidden in Unit 5 is provided, and a unique stock release method is used. It is an object to provide a gaming machine or the like that can increase the fun without being exhausted.

  In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 1 performs a lottery in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the outer peripheral surface and internal lottery for each game, The internal lottery means for determining each of the game machines, and by rotating a plurality of cylinders for each game and accepting the operation of the stop switch provided for each cylinder, each corresponding cylinder is individually A symbol display control means for stopping and displaying the symbols in a manner according to the determined combination; a special game lottery means for drawing a special game more advantageous than the normal game during the normal game; and the special game lottery Special game storage means for storing the special game won in accordance with the storage of executable special games, release lottery means for performing a release lottery for releasing the special game during the normal game, and the release lottery There is a special game that can be won and executed.

Definition:
Replay means a combination of pictures that can be played in the next play without placing a bet in a pachislot machine. The name on the pachislot certification rules (rules for game machine certification and type certification, etc.) is re-game. Further, the “replay role” used in the claims may be a group replay role in which a plurality of replay roles 1 to n are simultaneously elected internally, and any one of the replay roles has the highest priority (bonus role). (Also preferentially). That is, the “re-game” can be performed without inserting game medals or the like (including using the game medals for games by operating buttons and other devices related to the storage device). A game.

  “Activation” is a wording including a state in which a combination of symbols relating to a re-game or a symbol relating to an accessory continuous action device, etc. is displayed on the active line. Synonymous with "winning". Accordingly, in the present specification, the term “winning” for replaying or “winning” for a bonus combination may be used for convenience.

Basic example:
As an example of the gaming machine or the like according to the present invention, a spinning type gaming machine using medals as a game medium will be taken up. This embodiment will explain the basic configuration and basic operation of the spinning type gaming machine in detail.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a rotating game machine ((A) is an overall view, and (B) is a partially enlarged view).

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

  The front door 1b is a main part that should be called the face of a swivel type gaming machine, and by adding various types of plating to the resin material in order to give a high-class feeling, the appearance is gorgeous and profound. Two transparent panels 22 are fitted on the front surface of the front door 1b, and various designs are applied.

  On the rear side of the upper transparent panel 22a, a display effect device 11 (or a video display device) that performs various effects according to the game situation is screwed and fixed. The window portion 3 (design display window) is formed on the lower transparent panel 22b by affixing the design sheet 22c. A display LED block 4 (light emitting display device 4; see FIG. 1B) is attached to the lower part 22d of the lower transparent panel 22b (see the broken line part in FIG. 1A). The display LED block 4 includes a display LED group described later.

  4b is a medal stored number display LED for displaying the number of credits (stored number) of game medals within a predetermined maximum number of 50, for example. Also, a payout effect display at the time of settlement of stored medals is performed.

  4c is a medal payout number display LED, which displays the number of payout medals at the time of winning. Also, the stage setting value of the payout rate and the error code during stopping or when an error occurs are displayed.

  4d is a medal insertion display LED which lights up when a game medal can be inserted.

  4e is a replay display LED which lights up when replay is activated in the variable display game.

  4f is a stop and error display LED, which lights up at the time of stop and when a serious trouble (for example, trouble other than door opening) occurs.

  Reference numeral 2 denotes a drum unit (reel drum unit) built in the housing 1a, which includes three drums, a left drum 2a, a middle drum 2b, and a right drum 2c, a motor, an electric circuit, and the like. Inside each of the drums, a rotating part symbol display LED (not shown) is provided, which emits light (turns on and blinks) or turns off according to various effects. That is, each drum is a symbol row that displays a plurality of symbols in a row from top to bottom, and in this case, a variable display game for changing three symbol rows (plural rows) is started. It should be noted that, in the case where symbols are displayed using a liquid crystal display device or the like instead of each drum, this is a variable display game in which a symbol row in which a plurality of symbols are arranged is varied. The design on the reel tape affixed to the outer periphery of the drum portion 2 can be viewed through the transparent window portion 3.

  Reference numeral 5 denotes a medal insertion unit, which is provided with a medal insertion slot for inserting a game medal (a game medium, sometimes referred to as “coin” or simply “medal”) necessary to start the variable display game. Yes. Note that a left light transmitting portion 5a and a right light transmitting portion 5b are provided on both sides of the medal insertion portion 5, and the medal is received by light from a plurality of light sources (for example, LEDs) attached to the lower left and right. When it is impossible to insert, it is red (first color). On the other hand, when a medal can be inserted and displayed for addition for gaming, it is blue (second color). Lights in green (third color). However, if a medal cannot be inserted, it may be turned off.

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

  An adjustment button 6 is operated at the time of starting and releasing a medal storage device (not shown) and paying out the inserted medals and the stored medals (credits).

  Reference numeral 7 denotes a cross key, which includes four switches arranged vertically and horizontally and a determination button in the center. The top and bottom or left and right switches cannot be pressed at the same time. It is operated when viewing game history information by up / down / left / right operation or determination operation, or when displaying a combination symbol table or payout table on the display effect device 11. A 1-bet button (not shown) is provided in the vicinity of the cross key 7 and is used when inserting one stored medal of the medal storage device in order to play a game. In some cases, a 1-bet button is not provided.

  8 is a maximum bet button (MAX bet button), which is the maximum specified according to the game state, such as when a maximum of 3 stored medals are inserted in the medal storage device to play a game, or during a bonus game. Used when loading the number of sheets (1 to 3). Note that an LED is provided inside the max bet button 8, and lights up when the max bet button 8 is operable.

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

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

  Reference numeral 11 denotes a display effect device composed of a flat panel display (FPD) such as an LCD (liquid crystal display), a PDP (plasma display panel), or an organic EL (electroluminescence). And notification of required information. Regardless of whether dedicated glasses are used or not, display rendering devices capable of stereoscopic display have recently been manufactured at a low cost, and it is possible to produce 7 symbols in a tempered state (reach state) or a big hit state. Gaming machines that employ 3D display devices that project video are becoming mainstream.

  A speaker unit 12 includes four speakers, an upper left speaker 12a, an upper right speaker 12b, a lower left speaker 12c, and a lower right speaker 12d. During changing of sound effects and step set values according to various effects, or the front door A warning sound is generated when 1b is open or when a trouble occurs. When a serious trouble (selector error, hopper error or RAM error, but door opening is not included) occurs, the error display LED 4f is turned on together with a warning sound.

  Reference numeral 13 denotes a game state display LED unit, which is an upper state display LED 13a (also referred to as a top lamp) provided at the top of the display effect device 11, an upper left state display LED 13b and an upper right state display LED 13c provided on both sides, It consists of a status display LED 13d, a right middle status display LED 13e, a lower left status display LED 13f, a lower right status display LED 13g, and a middle lower status display LED 13h, and can effectively perform various light effects. Further, the flashing is repeated as a warning display when the step set value is being changed or when the front door 1b is open or when a trouble occurs.

  Since this game state display LED part 13 (13a-13h) is arrange | positioned so that the outer periphery of the front door 1b may be made to go around substantially the circumference, a colorful light is not interrupted with respect to a player, and an outer periphery collar part is tangled. It is possible to effectively perform a light effect such as turning. In particular, the upper state display LED 13a provided at the upper center position of the front door 1b (upper center position on the front surface of the gaming machine main body) is called a top lamp, and is unique to the internal winning or winning rare prize. It plays a central role in the light production that emits light in color and informs the player of the winning combination and so on, and raises the expectation.

  Reference numeral 14 denotes a special button, which is information required for various games displayed on the display effect device 11 and its image effects (for example, an increase in power level gauge, display of bonus formation symbols, machine gun operation of fighters, The input information such as the bomb drop or the moving direction of the characters and the power-up is input by one operation or repeated hitting by the player himself / herself. The information input by the special button 14 is given to a sub-board (sub-block), which will be described later, and is used only for various images and sound effects, so it does not affect the game result. .

  Reference numeral 15 denotes a tray, and game medals paid out from the medal payout device 18 (see FIG. 2) are discharged from the medal payout outlet 16 and can be received up to several hundreds.

  19 is a door key hole. When the front door 1b of the swivel type gaming machine main body 1 is opened by the door key, the stop state (the state in which the operation for the medal type game is disabled) and the cancellation of the game due to an error are performed. Used when releasing.

  Reference numeral 20 denotes a return button (formally called “inserted medal jammed return button”). A game medal packed in a game medal selector (not shown) through which the game medal inserted into the medal insertion unit 5 passes is displayed. Used when returning from the medal payout exit 16.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the spinning cylinder game machine.

  A drum portion 2 and a medal payout device 18 (medal hopper 18) are disposed below the drum portion 2 in the center portion of the casing 1a of the spinning cylinder type gaming machine main body 1.

  A reflector 17 is provided at the upper right portion of the housing 1a, and a photosensor is provided at a corresponding position of the front door 1b. When the front door 1b is closed, LED light emitted from the photosensor is reflected. While reflected by the plate 17 and detected by the phototransistor, in the opened state, reflected light is not detected, so that the open / closed state of the front door 1b can be detected.

  Reference numeral 21 denotes a power supply unit. When the power switch 21c is turned on, power is supplied to each circuit block, and after the initial check and initial setting, a variable display game can be played.

  Reference numeral 21a denotes a setting key switch (also referred to as a setting change permission switch), which is used when performing a stage setting operation of the payout rate and confirmation of a stage setting value. By inserting the operation key into the keyhole 21d and rotating it, the state can be changed from OFF to ON or vice versa.

  21b is an error release switch, which is used when setting the stage of the payout rate or when canceling the game stop due to an error. The stage setting value of the payout rate is displayed by the medal payout number display LED 4c. The value is incremented by 1 every time the error release switch 21b is pressed, and after “6” is displayed, the value returns to “1”, and turnaround display is performed. .

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a control circuit system of a spinning cylinder type gaming machine.

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

  Reference numeral 100 denotes a main control unit, which is an integrated one-chip microcomputer (for example, LEM50A-P manufactured by EL Tech Co.) on which a microprocessor incorporating a CPU is mounted, and a control procedure for a predetermined data table area and the entire apparatus. ROM 101 for storing a control program in which is described, and RAM 102 (RWM: also referred to as rewritable memory, which includes a counter, a register, etc., and temporarily stores information necessary for control. Also includes not only internal but also external RAM. .), Various registers, counters and the like are provided. As will be described later, even if the power switch 28c is turned off or the power cord is disconnected, the RAM 102 retains all the control data stored by the RAM backup power source that is always supplied via the power connector. However, when the power connector itself is removed, power is not supplied, so the control data is erased (all cleared or reset to 0) or meaningless information.

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

  The main control unit 100 is connected to the drum unit 2, the medal payout device 18, and the display LED block 4 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. These various devices can be controlled by transmitting and receiving output signals.

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

  A sub-control unit 160 is connected to the main control unit 100 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus, and control data (for example, coin insertion data, A lottery result, winning status data, step set value data, data indicating a switch operation state of the step setting unit 150, and the like) are output to the sub-control unit 160.

  Similar to the main control unit 100, the sub-control unit 160 is an integrated one-chip microcomputer equipped with a microprocessor with a built-in CPU, and a ROM 161 that stores a control program describing the control procedure of the entire sub-block; A counter, a timer, a register, and the like are formed, and a RAM 162 that temporarily stores information necessary for control received from the main control unit 100 is provided. This ROM 161 stores a plurality of BGM (Background Music) data. In particular, during the bonus game, a specially arranged BGM is displayed according to the production scene in order to enhance the player's feelings. Selected and played as appropriate. The main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 do not need to be provided separately, and may be a single control unit.

  The sub-control unit 160 is connected to the liquid crystal control unit 163, the speaker unit 12, the gaming state display LED unit 13, the cross key sensor 111, the special button sensor 112, and the door abnormality via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. A signal output device 113 is connected, and the sub-control unit 160 can receive input signals from these devices and output various data and signals to perform various controls.

  When the sub-control unit 160 performs the internal lottery using the random number extracted by the main control unit 100 in response to the start operation of the start lever 9, and receives the result notification of the big hit, re-game, various small roles or lose, Before notifying the player of the lottery result, an effect lottery is performed as to whether or not to produce an effect on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. When the sub-control unit 160 is won in the effect lottery, the sub-control unit 160 selects an effect image to be displayed from a plurality of effect images stored in the ROM 11c (see FIG. 13) described later, and outputs the selected effect image to the display panel 11e.

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

  When the cross key is operated, the cross key sensor 111 outputs a direction signal corresponding to the four directions of up, down, left, and right and a determination button operation signal at the center, and the sub-control unit 160 receives the direction signal, Various video effects and winning notifications according to the signal are displayed on the display effect device 11 and sound effects are generated from the speaker unit 12. Further, the sub-control unit 160 displays a combination combination pattern, a small combination table, and a payout table on the display effect device 11 based on a signal from the cross key sensor 111.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

  A stop setting unit (not shown) is connected to the main control unit 100, and if it is on (or “1”), after the bonus game is over, the inserted number LED 4a and the medal stored number display LED 4b are displayed. The total of the displayed medals is forcibly paid out, the operation for performing the variable display game is disabled (stopped state), and a warning sound is generated from the speaker unit 12. Recently, there are many slot machines that do not have the stop setting unit.

  FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a control circuit system for controlling the drum unit.

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

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

  FIG. 5 is a configuration block diagram of the drum unit.

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

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

  FIG. 6 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

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

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

  FIG. 7 is a structural block diagram of the drum unit, and FIGS. 7A and 7B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to be pulled in time series.

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

  For example, in the so-called reach state (or tempering state) in which the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b where the big bonus combination is won internally, When the symbol “7” is positioned within 4 frames from the line (that is, when the symbol “7” is positioned within 5 frames including the symbol on the active line), when the right stop button 10c is stopped (FIG. 7A) )), The main control unit 100 forcibly pulls the symbol “7” onto the active line, and performs pull-in control to align the symbols “7, 7, 7” (see FIG. 7B). .

  On the other hand, even if one of the winning combinations is won internally by lottery, the player is not in an advantageous state unless a predetermined symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed on the active line. For example, a big bonus game (BB game) does not operate unless it is displayed as shown in FIG. This pull-in control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. The main control unit 100 sequentially calculates the number of sliding frames for the virtual stop operation symbol frame position in advance by referring to the stop table for determining the stop position of each drum according to the random number lottery result (internal winning or losing). Thus, the sliding frame number table for the first stop operation is completed. When the stop button is actually stopped, the main control unit 100 moves the corresponding reel drum by the number of sliding symbols corresponding to the symbol number at the reference position, and then stops to stop. Take control. That is, the first stop operation position has a total of 63 frame positions (21 frames × 3 reels), and the number of sliding frames for all the frame positions is created in advance as a sliding frame number table.

  In the example of FIG. 7, in the tempered state, the symbol “7” of the right drum 2c is exactly 4 frames above and is lined up on the effective line as a target of pull-in control. However, the pull-in control is not limited to four frames, and the number of pull-in frames can be increased / decreased by software control so as to be adapted to the design specifications or legal regulations. In addition, when the random number lottery result is a win in the general game, the sub-control unit 160 assists information (operation sequence and operation order) for stopping the rotation of the rotary drum so that the symbols are displayed in a predetermined combination by the pull-in control. Assist information such as operation timing (AT information) is notified by the display effect device 11 or by voice.

  FIG. 8 is a configuration block diagram of the drum portion, and FIGS. 8A and 8B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to avoid (or kick-off control) in time series.

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

  For example, in the reach state (temple state) where the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the stopped left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b without the big bonus combination being elected internally When the stop button 10c is operated in a state where the symbol “7” is positioned within one frame from the effective line by the “eye press” (for example, this is called “bita press”). A), the main control unit 100 performs avoidance control for forcibly shifting the symbol “7” to at least one point ahead so that “7, 7, 7” is not aligned on the active line. (See FIG. 8B). This avoidance control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. In addition, avoidance control is performed so that an unsuccessful small role symbol does not win. These pull-in control and avoidance control (kick-off control) are performed by stop control based on a sliding frame number table created in advance by the main control unit 100 with reference to a stop table according to the internal winning situation, and as necessary. This is done by program control.

  FIG. 9 is a timing chart showing the relationship among the index signal, symbol position data (frame data), drive pulse signal, and stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 9A shows an index signal output from each of the cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c, and the main control is performed so that T1 is constant at 0.751 seconds (that is, 79.9 revolutions / minute). Controlled by the unit 100.

  FIG. 9B shows the symbol position data of the rotating drum, and FIG. 9C shows the drive pulse signal.

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

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

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

  FIG. 9D shows a stop button sensor signal output when each stop button is operated. In the case of this figure, the main control unit 100 recognizes the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “10” (or pattern number “2”) at the rising edge of the stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of the left drum 2a included in the drum portion.

  As shown in FIG. 10 (A), the left drum 2a rotates in the direction of the arrow (from top to bottom), and the cherry pattern is placed on any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the three windows 3 indicated by solid lines. When is stopped, a prize is awarded and a predetermined number of game medals are paid out. FIG. 10A shows a state where the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the window 3.

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

  FIG. 10 (B) shows the possible range of pull-in control. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position four frames above the position where the cherry pattern is just the upper stage, the main control unit 100 3. Stop the cherry symbol at the top of 3 (assuming that the bita symbol is in the upper position). In actuality, it takes about 36 ms to stop, so it is positioned higher by that amount, but for convenience of explanation, it is written in this way. In addition, since it is specified that the stop operation is performed within 190 ms from the stop operation, there is a case where four frames are not slipped. The data of 1 to 4 shown in FIG. 10A and 0 of the cherry symbol overlapped indicate the number of sliding symbols, and the main control unit 100 performs the stop calculation process based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information. Then, the sliding frame number table is created so that the stop control can be immediately performed regardless of when and when the player operates the stop button unit 10.

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

  FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the left drum 2a, the window 3 and the symbol position data.

  As shown in FIG. 11 (A) and FIG. 11 (B), the cherry symbols on the left drum 2a are the frame number 8 and the frame number 19 (see FIG. 8). When the lowermost position of the unit 3 is used as a measurement reference, the main control unit 100 displays the symbol position data “14” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “23” or the symbol. When the stop button 10a is operated in the range of the position data “4” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “1” and the input pulse phase data “23”, the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage and a winning is made. . In other words, even if the stop button 10a is appropriately operated, not only winning with a probability of 10/21, but if a winner is notified, an expert can push forward and win with a probability close to 100%. .

  FIG. 12 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

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

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

  FIG. 13 is a configuration block diagram of the display effect device.

  The display effect device 11 receives an effect command from the sub-control unit 160 and transmits / receives necessary information, a transmission / reception unit 11a, a display effect control unit 11b (including a ROM 11c and a RAM 11d), an LCD, an organic EL, an LED, and the like. Display panel 11e. In the case of this figure, the ROM 11c is separately provided in the display effect control unit 11b, but there is no problem even if all the video data is stored in the ROM 161. Therefore, the ROM 11c may be considered as a part of the ROM 161.

  FIG. 14 is an effect pattern table, which associates the relationship between effect commands and effect pattern data stored in the ROM.

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

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

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

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

  For example, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Z0 $ 00) as an effect command, for example, the display panel 11e displays “daytime” in the low-probability stage mainly indicating a state where there is no pseudo bonus stock or a state where the pseudo bonus is difficult to win. Display pattern 0 ”is displayed (see FIG. 15A). On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Y0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e is in a high probability stage that suggests a state where there is a pseudo bonus stock or a high probability state where the pseudo bonus is likely to be won. “Night effect pattern 0” is displayed (see FIG. 15B). Therefore, the player expects or desires to display a “night stage” that mainly suggests a high probability state during the game. However, a Gase effect that displays a “night stage” even when there is no pseudo bonus stock or a non-high probability state, and vice versa, a “day stage stage” with a pseudo bonus stock or a high probability state. It may be displayed. The pseudo bonus is a special game in which the assist function is activated, and the assist bonus starts when the pseudo bonus is released.

  Further, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ S0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e superimposes “Dracula Castle”, which is an image corresponding to “castle effect pattern 0”, on the blue sky background screen. It can be displayed (see Fig. 15 (A)) or overlaid on the moonlit night background screen (see Fig. 17 (B)), and then yellow, red or blue bats jump out of Dracula Castle Then, a notification image corresponding to the established combination (small combination or replay) is displayed (see FIG. 15C).

  When the effect of FIG. 15B is developed in multiple stages, it is a precursor effect that has a pseudo-bonus stock and a high probability of release, or that the expectation of pseudo-bonus release is large or has been confirmed. For example, FIG. 16A shows a state where the outer gate of “Dracula Castle” is enlarged and the iron gate is about to open. Then, it enters Dracula Castle and the door expands (see FIG. 16B), the door is gradually opened (see FIG. 16C), and the interior of the gorgeous “Dracula Castle” is displayed (FIG. 16). (See (D)). After that, if the hero wins the battle between the protagonist and the count of vampire Dracula, the pseudo bonus will be stocked, the pseudo bonus will be released, and the actual bonus will be released and the actual bonus will be released.

  From the state where the normal screen of the night of FIG. 17 (A) (same as FIG. 15 (B)) is displayed, the display screen is scrolled to the left, the cemetery is expanded, and the character butler screams “Olya” A hero character appears from the grave hole in the center of the screen with the sound effect “Tiroro Lolone” (see FIG. 17 (B)), and the characters “BONUS” meaning “big hit” are displayed ( It is good also as a premiere effect by making FIG.17 (C) refer. All of these display effects are also executed by receiving control commands and event data from the main control unit 100, and the sub control unit 160 outputting the effect commands according to the program.

  FIG. 18 is a conceptual diagram of a general lottery table.

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

  In the case of the rotary type gaming machine of the present invention, the main control unit 100 generates a random value. This random number value is generated in a random manner so that all values from 0 to 65535 (m7) are periodically generated once in one cycle (about 6.5 ms). FIG. 18A is a lottery table used in a normal state (non-RT state) where the probability of loss is high. When the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery in accordance with the timing at which the start lever 9 is operated, If the numerical value is in the range of 0 to m1, the big bonus (BB) is won. That is, the internal lottery is to pick up (extract) one random number value at the time of start operation and to determine the winning combination by comparing with a lottery table.

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

  Normally, the numerical values of m1 to m7 are appropriately set in consideration of laws and regulations (wind management law) and game characteristics, but the BB winning probability is about “1/400” and the RB winning probability is “1/300. The probability of winning for cherry and watermelon is about 1/50, the probability of winning for bell is about 1/6, and the probability of winning for replay is 1 / 7.3. In addition, although BB and RB are elected alone, they may be elected at the same time as a rare role.

  On the other hand, FIG. 18B is a lottery table used in the high-probability re-playing state (RT state). In the replay time, the winning range for replay is widened by α, while the lost range is narrowed by α. Thus, the winning probability of replay is set to about “½”. As a result, the probability of winning the replay corresponding to the three-piece payout is greatly increased, but the probability of being lost is lowered. As a result, the expected payout value of game medals is greatly improved or increased during the replay time. . Further, the main control unit 100 can set the expected value of the replay time to a desired value by increasing or decreasing the α value.

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

  FIG. 19 is a payout table showing the relationship between the combination of symbols and the number of acquired medals.

  BB (Big Bonus) is the title when the BB symbol of “Red 7” is aligned on the active line. When winning internally, flag 1 is set in the corresponding flag area and the number of medals won when this symbol is aligned. Is 0, and the player enters a big bonus game (BB game: operation of a continuous action device) and finishes with payout exceeding 360 pieces.

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

  When the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum, one medal is obtained for each effective line. For example, if the effective line is the display determination diagram of FIG. 14, the number is one if the middle part of the left drum is stopped, but if it is the upper stage or the lower stage, there are two effective lines, and the payout is two sheets in total. When the watermelon symbols are aligned on the active line, 5 medals are obtained. When the bell symbols are aligned on the active line, 8 medals are obtained.

  When a replay combination is won internally, flag 1 is set in the corresponding flag area, and any of the replay action symbols is always aligned on the active line (also referred to as a replay combination prize). When the replay operation symbol is displayed, a replay without medal acquisition is activated, and the replay is performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player to lower the flag (that is, 0). That is, the next game can be played without inserting medals. The timing for lowering the flag is arbitrary.

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

  First, in a state in which the spinning machine is shipped from the factory, as a default, the warning mode when the step-out rate setting operation is performed is “ON”, and the stop setting unit 180 (stop setting switch) is “ It is assumed that “off” and the lowest step setting value “1” is set.

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

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

  FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing a main operation processing procedure of the spinning cylinder type game machine.

  An employee of the gaming hall opens the front door of the swing type gaming machine body 1 to turn off the power switch 28c, inserts the setting change key into the setting key switch 28a, and turns it to the right to turn it on (FIG. 2). When the power switch 28c is turned on again, power is supplied to each circuit block, and after the initial check and initial setting are executed in step S100, the main control unit 100 performs step In S110, it is determined whether or not the setting key switch 28a is in an ON state.

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

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

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

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

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

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

  In step S170, the main control unit 100 executes the main process of the variable display game, performs a random number lottery in accordance with the reception timing of the start signal, and picks up (extracts) the random number value and the current internal state (RT or non-RT). The lottery table is compared to determine whether or not an internal winning is made (see the explanation of FIG. 18).

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

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

  The main control unit 100 establishes a winning combination if a predetermined symbol is displayed side by side on the active line of the window 3 in each variable display game of the general game, and the payout table stored in the ROM 161 (see FIG. 19). ), The game medal is paid out from the medal payout device 18 and discharged from the medal payout exit 16 for the addition of the credit or the payout exceeding the storage upper limit value.

  In the big bonus game (BB game) in which three red 7s are arranged, the BB game mode is terminated when the accessory continuous operation device operates and the acquired number exceeds 360. In addition, in a regular bonus game (RB game) with three blue 7 symbols, the RB game mode is terminated when the winning action continuous operation device is activated and the acquired number exceeds 120. .

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

  Next, the operation of the swivel type gaming machine having the basic configuration as described above will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and flowcharts. In particular, a revolving gaming machine in which the winning probability of replay varies and a real bonus and an assist bonus (such as ART, a third bonus, or a pseudo bonus) are mounted will be described.

  In addition, this invention is provided with the characteristic structure which has patentability of (1)-(22) at least. (1) A stock lottery is performed during the pseudo bonus. (2) When the real bonus is won during the pseudo bonus, after the real bonus is over, the same color pseudo bonus waiting state is passed, the promotion lottery is started, and the pseudo bonus is started again from the 0th sheet. (3) In the normal game state after the pseudo bonus, the stock lottery table (back stock number and released stock number and type) is used for each game using the stock lottery table according to the result of the lottery. A bonus release lottery is executed according to the number of games. (4) If there is no back stock, no bonus will be released even if the bonus release lottery is won, but in the release ceiling game (777G), a pseudo bonus will be released even if there is no back stock. (5) When the pseudo bonus is released, the color of the symbol is changed by repeatedly hitting the special button when winning the white 7REP. (6) Assuming that the pseudo BB (rainbow color) is determined, the sub-control unit 160 determines the number of operations of the special button 14 in advance by lottery for each color to be changed, and displays a color determination screen. Then, the user presses the special button 14 repeatedly. For example, the number of operations of the color change timing is determined in advance, such as 3 times from white to yellow, 5 times from yellow to green, and 7 times from green to red. The emission color of the display LED is controlled. If the white 7 replay does not win, the symbol at the V-shaped position with the star mark in the figure changes to four colors in the same manner. (7) On the other hand, when the start lever 9 is operated without operating the special button 14 in a state where the game medium is inserted due to the replay winning, the top lamp emits light / flashes in the determined color. (8) If a real bonus is won internally during a pseudo bonus or stock time, a long-term pseudo bonus waiting state is entered after the end of the real bonus game, and a promotion lottery is performed. Every time 10 games are played in this pseudo bonus waiting state, a pseudo bonus self-ranking lottery is performed, and when the operation of the special button 14 is enabled (internal LED is blinking), the winning lottery is performed at that timing. Is executed. (9) The stock method is unique, and the number and type of back stock are selected by lottery and the number of releases is determined. (10) In the RT1 state, the RT3 transition lip is won simultaneously with the actual bonus → the actual bonus winning is determined because the RT1 state does not shift to RT3. (11) When the real bonus is in the internal winning state and the middle cherries are won, the cherry symbols are stopped at the corners (upper or lower), and the outcome of the weak check or strong check is displayed on the reel. (12) The pseudo bonus is back-stocked, and the actual bonus is immediately or is announced by several G to be aligned. (13) Stock release lottery is performed at the timing when the actual bonus symbols are aligned and the final stop operation button of the stop button unit 10 is released. (14) There is a reach replay combination that is won in a combination lottery during a normal game, and a reach is displayed by a stop operation. When a pseudo bonus is won in a pseudo game, a similar reach is pseudo-stopped by a stop operation. (15) When the reach replay is won during the pseudo bonus, if the release lottery is not won, the normal lip is pressed by right-pressing, and the release is not performed. (16) Back stock: Decrease the pseudo-ST win rate during normal times to make it hard to hit, raise the pseudo-ST win rate during pseudo-BB, and release in order from the newly won. Effect: A pseudo ST loop can be created in the pseudo BB. (17) The RT2 state is a state without any loss. The reason is that the lost area is eliminated in order to widen the winning area for the RT3 transition replay because the RT2 state is merely a passing section necessary for the transition to the RT3 state. (18) In the RT3 state, the winning area for the replay role is narrowed to have an area that is lost at 655/65536 (about 1/100). The reason is that the player can have a sense of expectation by making an illusion of reaching by losing eyes. (19) The winning probability of the pseudo ST is greatly different between the normal gaming state and the pseudo bonus gaming state, and the winning probability is significantly higher in the latter than in the former. The stored pseudo bonus types are stored in the order in which they are stocked, and the latest stored pseudo bonus is released first. (20) Pseudo ST is executed for 50 games in one set, but if no bonus stock is won among 50 games, another set is added and 50 games continue from the beginning. (21) While waiting for the actual bonus (inside), not only does the freezing lottery even if the middle-tier cherry role wins internally, but also changes the stop control to stop the cherry symbol in the upper or lower stage, The middle cherry role is displayed as a double cherry role or a triple cherry role. (22) When the reach replay is won during the pseudo bonus, the stock lottery is performed, and the push order is not given when the win is won, but the right first push order is displayed when the win is not successful. At this time, when the player performs the right first operation, the middle stage replay is displayed, so there is no reach, but when the left first or right first is operated, the reach is displayed to notify the stock win It has become.

  FIG. 21 is a symbol layout diagram of the drum.

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

  Each swirl belt has a different pattern (white seven design, blue seven design, BAR design, bell design, cherry design, watermelon 1 design, watermelon 2 design, replay 1 design, replay 2 design, replay 3 design) 21 are arranged.

  FIG. 22 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drum units 2 are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the active line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (FIG. 22 ( A)). However, in all games (normal game, assist game, bonus game, etc.), the description will be made assuming that the specified number is three.

  FIG. 22B is an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted, and the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center horizontal line in the order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c). Only) is valid. That is, in all games, always 3 cards are inserted, and the center horizontal one line.

  FIG. 23 is a payout table at the normal time and at the time of bonus operation. FIG. 24 is a schematic diagram showing a symbol display state of the window portion.

  When all three reels (rotating drums or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the active line (see FIG. 22).

  (1) Bonus 1 (Type 1 consecutive action device): Left drum 2a (blue 7), middle drum 2b (blue 7), right drum 2c (blue 7) are aligned on the active line and stopped. Then, the acquired number is 0, and bonus 1 is subsequently given (BB1 is activated). For example, the bonus 1 ends when the winning probability is 1/1000, the specified number of games inserted in the bonus 1 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 360. When the bonus 1 is won internally by the lottery and the bonus 1 flag is set, the bonus 1 can be won. In addition, if bonus 1 is won internally and the winning is not achieved, the next game and after is assumed to be a carry-over state (RT 4) with bonus 1 being won internally, but the replay winning probability in each game is about 1 until bonus 1 is won. / 2 or so. The operation pattern of bonus 1 is displayed (bonus 1 is won), and after the bonus game is over, the initial replay state (replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3: RT0) is returned.

  (2) Bonus 2 (first-type accessory continuous operation device): When the left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (blue 7), and the right drum 2c (BAR) are aligned on the active line and stopped. The acquired number is 0 and bonus 2 (BB2) is subsequently given (actuated). This bonus 2 ends when, for example, the winning probability is about 1/500, the prescribed number of games inserted in the bonus 2 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 180. When the bonus 2 is won internally by the lottery and the bonus 2 flag is set, the bonus 2 can be won. When bonus 2 is won internally, the replay winning probability in the subsequent game is about ½ as in bonus 1. That is, the carryover state in which bonus 2 is internally won is RT4. After the bonus game in which bonus 2 is activated, the game returns to the initial replay state (replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3: RT0). The combined probability of the actual bonus (bonus 1 and bonus 2) is 3/1000.

  (3) Middle bell: This is the title when the bell symbols are aligned and stopped on the effective line of each drum, and the number obtained is 14.

  (4) Lower right bell: For example, when the left drum 2a (replay 2), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (replay 2) are aligned on the active line and stopped, a bell symbol is displayed on the lower right. Displayed, and the lower right bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 14.

  (5) Upper bell: For example, when the left drum 2a (Replay 2), the middle drum 2b (Cherry), and the right drum 2c (Watermelon 2) are aligned on the active line and stopped, a bell symbol is displayed on the upper stage. The top bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 14.

  (6) Upper watermelon: For example, when the left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (BAR), and the right drum 2c (cherry) are aligned on the active line and stopped, the watermelon symbol is displayed on the upper stage, The upper watermelon wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 5.

  (7) Lower right watermelon: For example, when the left drum 2a (bell), the middle drum 2b (watermelon 2), and the right drum 2c (replay 2) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the watermelon symbol will appear on the lower right. Displayed and the lower right watermelon wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 5.

  (8) Double cherries (weak cherries): For example, when 18 (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (Cherry) on the middle drum 2b, and (Replay 2) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line, Two cherry symbols are displayed on the upper right, and two cherries win. The number of medals (game media) acquired is two.

  (9) Triple Cherry (Strong Cherry): For example, when (BAR) No. 18 on the left drum 2a, (Cherry) on the middle drum 2b, (Blue Seven) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped, Three cherry symbols are displayed in the upper right corner, and triple cherries win. The number of medals (game media) acquired is two. Note that (white seven) may stop on the right drum 2c.

  (10) Middle cherries: For example, when 19 (cherry) on the left drum 2a, 13 (BAR) on the middle drum 2b, and 4 (white 7) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped. The middle tier cherries win. The number of medals (game media) acquired is two. It is possible to display three BAR symbols on the right side. The middle cherry role is an opportunity for freezing lottery, and when won, a freezing effect (reel lock and reeling effect) is performed, and a pseudo bonus is immediately released without a warning effect.

  (11) Multiple types of one-piece combination: For example, when the left drum 2a (Replay 2), the middle drum 2b (Replay 2), and the right drum 2c (BAR) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, 1 wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is one. This one-piece combination is a small combination for stop control, and there are a plurality of types of one-piece combination 1 to one-piece combination n (n is a natural number of 2 or more). Is omitted.

  (12) Normal replay (replay A): The title when the replay symbols (replays 1 to 3) are aligned on the active line for each drum, and no medals are obtained for this, but the number of bets in the game The next game can be performed while maintaining Even if the next game is continuously arranged, it is effective, and it is possible to continue playing without consuming coins until a game in which replay is not established. An effect in which medals are automatically inserted before the start of the game is performed, and the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the normal replay is independently won by random lottery, the RP1 flag is set in the flag area and the replay symbol is always displayed. In appearance, the replay symbols are aligned in a central horizontal line. The replay probability does not fluctuate even if the operation pattern of replay A is displayed.

  (13) Normal replay (replay B): For example, the title when (bell) on the left drum 2a, (replay 2) on the middle drum 2b, (bell) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line, On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but the next game can be played with the bet number of the game maintained. In appearance, the replay symbols are aligned in a straight line on the upper right. Even if the operation pattern of replay B is displayed, the replay probability does not change.

  (14) RT1 transition replay (replay 1): This is the title when the left drum 2a (bell), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (replay 2) are aligned on the active line. On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but the next game can be performed in a state where the bet number of the game is maintained. When the RT1 transition replay is won internally by random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 1 is activated, the replay probability is changed, and the state transitions to the RT1 state.

  (15) RT2 transition replay (replay 2): The title when the left drum 2a (watermelon symbol), the middle drum 2b (replay symbol), and the right drum 2c (bell) are aligned on the active line, On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but the next game can be played with the bet number of the game maintained. In appearance, the replay symbol is displayed in a small V shape. When the RT2 transition replay is won internally by random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 2 is activated, the replay probability is changed, and the RT2 state is shifted.

  (16) RT3 transition replay (replay 3): The title when the left drum 2a (bell), the middle drum 2b (replay symbol), and the right drum 2c (replay 2) are aligned on the active line, On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but the next game can be played with the bet number of the game maintained. When the RT3 transition replay is internally won in the random lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 3 is activated, the replay probability is changed, and the state transitions to the RT3 state. In the RT3 transition replay, internal winning is performed even in the RT1 state, and the replay symbol is displayed and the replay 3 is activated. However, in the RT1 state, the bonus combination (bonus 1 or bonus 2) is always won simultaneously. As a result, since the bonus combination cannot be won (the symbol is not displayed), even if the RT3 transition replay symbol is displayed during the normal game, the gaming state becomes RT4 (RT inside bonus combination) which is the carryover state described above. The advanced player detects that even if RT3 transition replay wins in RT1 state, it has not transitioned to RT3 state with a replay probability of about 2/3, and it has transitioned to RT4 state with a replay probability of about 1/2. It recognizes that the bonus combination is won internally (effect). There is no other gaming machine having such a characteristic configuration and exhibiting a specific operational effect.

  (17) White 7 replay: This is the title when (white 7) on the left drum 2a, (white 7) on the middle drum 2b, and (white 7) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. When the symbol is displayed, the replay is activated. The white 7 replay is won at the same time as other types of replay for stop control (or push order control), and the stop button unit 10 is operated (operated) aiming at the white 7 pattern in a predetermined push order. When a specific operation including the order and operation timing is performed, the seven white symbols are displayed in a central horizontal line (see FIG. 24A). On the other hand, if the 7 white symbols are not complete, any of the other replays that are won simultaneously will always win.

  (18) White BAR replay: The title when the fifth drum (bell) on the left drum 2a, (white 7) on the middle drum 2b, and (white 7) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. When a symbol is displayed, the replay is activated. This white BAR replay is won at the same time as a plurality of other replay roles for stop control (or for pressing order control), and the stop button unit 10 is operated by aiming at the white 7 symbols in a predetermined pressing order ( When a specific operation including the operation order and operation timing) is performed, the white 7 symbol, the white 7 symbol, and the BAR symbol are displayed in a straight line on the lower right (see FIG. 24B). On the other hand, even if it is not displayed in this way, any of the other replay roles that are simultaneously won always wins.

  (19) BAR replay: The title when (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (BAR) on the middle drum 2b, and (BAR) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. When it is done, replay is activated. The BAR replay is won at the same time as a plurality of other replay roles for stop control (or for pressing order control), and the stop button unit 10 is operated (operation order and operation) aiming at the BAR symbol in a predetermined pressing order. When a specific operation including timing is performed, the BAR symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal line (see FIG. 24C). On the other hand, if the BAR symbols are not prepared, any of the other replay roles won simultaneously will win.

  The white 7 replay and the white BAR replay are re-games used when releasing a pseudo bonus (special game 1 and special game 2). Specifically, when special game 1 (pseudo BB) is won, it waits for the white 7 replay to win internally (promotion standby state), and when the white 7 replay is won internally, the white 7 replay is reversed to aim at the white 7 pattern. When instructed (notifies the specific operation) and correctly operated by the player, the 7 white symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal line (see FIG. 24A). In particular, in the white 7 replay, there are five game states that are stocked during the bonus game and have different pseudo-bonus winning probabilities that are determined to be released, and the white 7 symbol is displayed in five colors in order to notify the player. Change. More specifically, inside the three drums of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c of the drum unit 2, there is a revolving part design that is composed of a red LED, a green LED, and a blue LED and can emit light of any color. Three display LEDs are arranged for each drum, a total of nine, and the sub-control unit 160 indicates that the three rotating part symbol display LEDs corresponding to the active line are white in accordance with the number of operations of the special button 14. The emission color is changed from yellow to green to red to rainbow. For the player, the 7 white symbols appear to change from white to 5 colors in order from the color corresponding to the light emission color of the rotator portion symbol display LED.

  Similarly, when special game 2 (pseudo RB) is won, it waits for the white BAR replay to win internally (in promotion standby state), and when the white BAR replay is won internally without being promoted, the white bar replay is pushed back to aim at the white 7 symbol When the player performs the instruction (notifies the specific operation) and correctly operates the player, the white 7 symbol, the white 7 symbol, and the BAR symbol are displayed in a straight line on the right (see FIG. 24B). In particular, the BAR replay is directed to aiming at the BAR symbol by reverse pressing when shifting to a special extra game called stock time for stocking a pseudo bonus (the specific operation is notified), and the player correctly When operated, the BAR symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal straight line (see FIG. 24C).

  (20) Reach eyes Replay 1 to 5: Either (Replay 3) on the left drum 2a, (Watermelon 2 / White 7 / Cherry) on the middle drum 2b, or (Replay 2) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. In the same way, when the symbol is displayed, the replay is activated. This reach replay is performed at the same time as a plurality of other replay roles for stop control (or for push order control), and is operated by aiming at a BAR symbol in a predetermined left first scissor push order. The symbol, replay symbol, and bell symbol all appear to be in a tempered state, but the third stop is operated with the middle stop button 10b (specific operation including the operation order and operation timing) aiming at the 13th BAR symbol. However, any of the BAR symbol, the replay symbol, and the bell symbol does not stop on the effective line and becomes a losing eye (see FIG. 24D). There are 12 types of such reach replays 1 to 12, and when the reach is displayed, a bonus win is obtained. In other words, even though three different symbols have been tempered, they are notified that the bonus has been won by not winning any of them (other reach replays are omitted). In the RT3 state, the probability that any one of the reach replays 1 to 5 is internally won is relatively high at about 1/28, and the main control unit 100 performs the reverse push operation (when the reach eyes are not displayed during the pseudo bonus) ( Right 1st operation) is instructed, and the sub-control unit 160 displays the right 1st push order screen. When the player performs a stop operation at the 1st right, the middle replay is awarded. On the other hand, when the player performs the left 1st operation or the middle 1st operation, one of the 12 reach eyes described later is displayed.

  (21) Cobbing order (1 to m) of push order small role (push order bell role): Special symbol (falling design) displayed on the effective line when the bell role is missed by the push order small role described later When any one of the special symbols is displayed, the replay probability is changed, and the state shifts to the RT1 state. For example, when (bell) is displayed on the left drum 2a, (bell) on the middle drum 2b, and (watermelon symbol) is displayed on the active line (displaying the falling symbol) on the right drum 2c, the gaming state shifts to the RT1 state. (The others are omitted).

  FIG. 25 and FIG. 26 are combination tables (simultaneous winning pattern of small combination) of condition devices of push order small combination (middle first or right first).

  The push order small combination means that when the operation order of the stop button unit 10 (the push order of the stop button unit 10) is correct, the bell small combination (middle bell or lower right bell) is always won, while the incorrect answer is Is a duplicate winning when there is a chance to win any one of multiple types of small ones that are won at the same time and to display one of a plurality of small eyes A small role.

  In the push order bell 1, the correct first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent correct second stop operation is the push order small part of the left stop button 10a. There are nine kinds of push order bells 1 to 1 in order of push order 1 to 1 so that the player does not miss a single piece by looking at the appearance (stop symbol) of each reel. The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol. Push order bell 1 is a push order small part of the double push order type. The first small part is intended to win a prize (bell part: FUR1), and the second small part is intended to obstruct the first small part. A plurality of types of second small roles (in this case, six types of single small roles (FUR11 to FUR16: replay 2-replay 2-BAR, ... replay 1-replay 3-watermelon 2), and first small The third small part constituting the third small part for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the part (FUR3: one of the left drum (watermelon 1 / watermelon 2), the middle drum bell, the right drum (white 7 / watermelon) A small combination that can be won in any of the four types of symbol combination display (see push order bell 1-1 in FIG. 25).

  In the push order bell 2, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small part of the right stop button 10c. Since there are nine types of push order bells 2 to 1 to push order bells 2-9, as with push order bell 1, the player looks at the appearance of each reel (stop symbol) 1 The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated with the aim of a symbol so as not to miss the combination.

  In the push order bell 3, the correct first stop operation is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent correct second stop operation is the push order small part of the left stop button 10a. There are nine types of push order bells 3 from push order bells 3-1 to push order bells 3-9. As with push order bell 1, the player looks at the appearance of each reel (stop symbol) 1 The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated with the aim of a symbol so as not to miss the combination.

  In the push order bell 4, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small part of the middle stop button 10b. There are nine types of push order bell 4 from push order bell 4-1 to push order bell 4-9, so as with push order bell 1, the player looks at the appearance of each reel (stop symbol) 1 The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated with the aim of a symbol so as not to miss the combination. In addition, as the push order bell role, there is one type of 3 choice bells (left 1st push order bell) that the bell role wins when the first stop operation is correct, and the left push order bell is elected and pressed middle or right. In this case, if the bell small part is missed and the eye is displayed, the process proceeds to RT1, but the FUR3 and FUR4 of the push order bell 1 to the push order bell 4 are not won, so the explanation with the figure is omitted. In other words, in the push order bell role, the push order to win a prize is substantially a 5 choice bell role.

  FIG. 27 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  For example, when the main control unit 100 causes the push order bell 1-1 shown in FIG. 25 to be won internally by random lottery, as described above, the FUR1 + FR3 + FR11 to FR16 condition devices are simultaneously operated (eight different small roles are simultaneously used). Based on the operation order information (213), it is determined that the middle → left → right operation order is the winning operation order. In this state, the main control unit 100 executes stop calculation processing based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information so that the player can immediately perform stop control regardless of when and when the player operates the stop button unit 10. Next, create a sliding frame number table. Similarly, a sliding frame number table is created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see FIG. 10).

  FIG. 27A shows a state where all the drum portions 2 are rotating from top to bottom. When the player performs the first stop operation on the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation sequence in the state shown in FIG. 27A, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and sets the corresponding sliding frame number data. Based on this, the middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, and control for drawing the bell symbol into the effective line is performed (the drum unit 2 is merely moved by the number of sliding frames). FIG. 27 (B)). In the state of FIG. 27B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c may be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation on the left stop button 10a in the correct operation sequence, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, 0 frame to 4 frames In this range, the left drum 2a is stopped, and control for drawing the bell symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 27C). In the state shown in FIG. 27C, the FUR1 is tempered. The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the right stop button 10c in the correct operation order is third stopped, The control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and performs control to pull the bell symbol into the effective line (FIG. 27 (D)).

  FIG. 28 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series. However, FIG. 28A and FIG. 28B are the same as FIG. 27A and FIG.

  The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation in the state of FIG. 28B in which the first stop operation is correct, and the player stops the right stop button 10c in the incorrect operation order. When the second stop operation is performed, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and displays the white 7 symbols. Alternatively, control for drawing any one of the replay 2 symbols into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 28C). In the state shown in FIG. The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the second stop operation so that the left stop button 10a may be operated, and when the player performs the third stop operation on the left stop button 10a, The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and activates either the watermelon 1 symbol or the watermelon 2 symbol as an effective line. Control for drawing in is performed (see FIG. 28D). In the above example, if the first stop operation is correct, either FUR1 or FUL3 will always win, but FUL3 may be missed by placing FUL symbols at intervals of 5 frames or more. You can also.

  FIG. 29 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series. Note that FIG. 29A is the same as FIG. 27A, and thus redundant description is omitted.

  When the player performs the first stop operation on the right stop button 10c in the incorrect operation order in the state shown in FIG. 29A, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and applies the corresponding sliding frame number data. On the basis of this, the right drum 2c is stopped in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, and control is performed so that any one of the BAR symbol, the blue seven symbol, and the watermelon 2 symbol is always drawn into the effective line (FIG. 29 (B )reference). In this case, since the BAR symbol is stopped on the active line, there is a possibility that only one of FUR11 and FUR14 is won at this time. In the state of FIG. 29B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b may be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation on the left stop button 10a, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and determines the left in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The drum 2a is stopped, and if there is a replay 2 symbol within the pull-in range, control for drawing the symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 29C). In the state shown in FIG. 29C, both FUR11 and FUR14 are tempered. The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the player performs the third stop operation on the middle stop button 10b, The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and activates either the replay 2 symbol or the replay 3 symbol as an effective line. The pull-in control is performed (see FIG. 29D). On the other hand, if neither the Replay 2 symbol or the Replay 3 symbol can be drawn into the active line, the squeeze of the push order small combination is displayed (not shown).

  FIG. 30 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series. Note that FIG. 30A is the same as FIG. 27A, and thus redundant description is omitted.

  When the player performs the first stop operation on the left stop button 10a in the incorrect operation order in the state shown in FIG. 30A, the main control unit 100 refers to the slip frame number table and applies the corresponding slip frame number data. Based on the above, the middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, and control for drawing any one of the replay 1 symbol, the replay 2 symbol, or the replay 3 symbol into the effective line is performed (FIG. 30B). )reference). In this case, since the Replay 3 symbols are stopped on the active line, there is a possibility that only one of FUR 12 and FUR 15 will be won at this time. In the state of FIG. 30B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c may be operated. Yes. When the player performs the second stop operation of the middle stop button 10b, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, the left drum 2a in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames. If there is a replay 2 symbol or a replay 3 symbol within the pull-in range, control is performed to pull the symbol into the active line. For example, when the 8th cherry symbol is positioned on the active line, the middle stop button When 10b is operated, both the replay 2 symbol and the replay 3 symbol do not exist within 4 frames, so the bell symbol of No. 7 is stopped on the active line in order to display the knack of the push order small role (Fig. 30 (C)). At this point, the possibility of winning all the small roles is gone. The main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the player performs the third stop operation on the right stop button 10c, The main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and presses the small part of the pressing order (replay 3 symbols). In order to display the bell symbol, the bell symbol), control for drawing the bell symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 30D). The push order bell 2 shown in FIG. 25, the push order bell 3 and the push order bell 4 shown in FIG. 26 are the same logic as the stop control, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  FIG. 31 is a game state transition diagram (RT state). FIG. 32 is a schematic diagram showing a symbol display state of the window.

  RT0 in the figure is an initial state (non-RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay combination (replaying combination) does not fluctuate, and a game or bonus game (BB1 or BB2: 1 immediately after the step set value is re-entered) The general game starts in the initial state (also referred to as “initial replay state”) from the next game in which the seed or two-kind continuous action device) ends. The replay winning probability (replay probability) in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, RT1 transition replay (replay 1), RT2 transition replay (replay 2), and RT3 transition replay (replay 3). Since it is not won, in order to shift from this state to RT1, the above-mentioned push-order small-sized combination must be displayed on the active line. On the other hand, even if BB1 (bonus 1) or BB2 (bonus 2) is activated by internal winning, symbol display, or ends with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, it will only be RT4, bonus game, RT0. It is not possible.

  If the small game in the RT0 state wins an internal winning combination and misses the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 and the symbol is displayed on the active line, the next game will be in the RT1 state (continue) The number of games is not fixed, meaning it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and most of the combinations shown in FIG. That is, the game in the initial state and the RT1 state is a game state having approximately the same 1 / 7.3 replay probability, but the normal game in which the player mainly stays is in the RT1 state. However, the RT3 transition replay is won in the RT1 state and the RT2 state, but in the RT1 state, it is always won simultaneously with either BB1 or BB2, so that the RT3 state is shifted to the RT4 state without shifting to the RT3 state. Therefore, when the RT3 transition replay symbol is displayed on the active line in the RT1 state, the player can know that either BB1 or BB2 has been won internally (specific operational effect).

  When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won in the RT1 state and the action symbol is displayed on the active line, the RT2 state is reached in which the replay probability has increased to about 1 / 1.5. In the RT2 state, the winning probabilities for the two bonus roles and small roles are about 1/3, so the winning probability for the bonus role, small role and replay role is 1/1 (100%), and there is no loss at all. Become. The reason is that the lost area is eliminated in order to widen the winning area of the RT3 transition replay as much as possible because it is just a passing section necessary for the RT2 state to transition to the RT3 state.

  The RT1 transition replay (replay 1) is a function for quickly dropping to the RT1 state because the RT2 transition replay is activated when the RT2 transition replay is activated when the player accidentally presses the stop button unit 10 accidentally. , Has the same function as Koboshi) (falling replay).

  When the RT3 transition replay (replay 3) is internally won and activated in the RT2 state, the RT3 state is about 1 / 1.5 with the same replay probability. Further, the RT3 state is different in that the type of replay combination won in the RT2 state and the size of the winning area are different. Then, the winning area for the replay role is narrowed to have an area that is lost at 655/65536 (about 1/100). The reason is that a sense of expectation can be obtained by making an illusion of reaching out and letting the player have an illusion of reach. When the bell-shaped eye is displayed on the active line in the RT2 state or the RT3 state, the state falls to the RT1 state. Note that the RT1 transition replay is not won in order not to fall from the RT3 state to the RT1 state. On the other hand, in RT3 state, RT1 transition replay is won at the same time as either BB1 or BB2, and by transitioning to RT4 state without transitioning to RT1 state, either BB1 or BB2 is won internally by the player It is also possible to notify (special effect).

  Real bonuses (bonus 1 and bonus 2) can be won in the initial state, RT1 state, RT2 state and RT3 state. Bonus 1 is stopped when the internal winnings are made independently and the blue 7 symbols are aimed at each drum. When the number of payouts exceeds the specified number after operation (after bonus 1 game), the bonus 1 is ended and the initial replay state is reached. Return to. The RT4 state is a state in which bonus 1 is won internally (bonus carryover state), and in this state, blue 7 symbols can be aligned (see FIG. 32A). The reason is that the main control unit 100 gives priority to the symbol of the replay role that is won internally over the blue 7 symbol (bonus symbol), and prioritizes the symbol of the small role that is internally selected over the symbol blue 7. This is because the drum unit 2 is controlled to stop so as to be drawn on the effective line. In addition, if the blue 7 symbol is aimed at a timing at which the symbol of the internal winning winning combination cannot be drawn, it is possible to stop the bonus symbols together.

  Bonus 2 is the same as Bonus 1 and is stopped when the internal winnings are made independently and each drum is aimed at the Blue 7 symbol, Blue 7 symbol, and BAR symbol. When the number exceeds the specified number, the process ends and returns to the initial replay state. The RT4 state is a state in which the bonus 2 is won internally, and in this state, the blue 7 symbol, the blue 7 symbol, and the BAR symbol can be aligned (see FIG. 32B).

  FIG. 33 is a game state transition diagram (effect state). 34 to 37 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device. FIG. 38 is a schematic diagram showing a symbol display state of the window.

  The main control unit 100 governs control related to the performance of balls, while the sub-control unit 160 governs control related to effects.

  When the step set value is re-entered, various data are cleared and set according to the set value to be in an initial state, and the normal game starts. The normal game state includes a normal state 1, a normal state 2, a high-accuracy state, and an ultra-high-accuracy state, which are selected by lottery. Note that this initial state is the RT0 state of FIG. 31, and the RT1 state is entered when the missing portion of the push order small combination is displayed. That is, the normal game is played in the state of RT0 and RT1, and after the actual bonus is over, the state of RT1 is passed through RT0.

  The sub-control unit 160 switches and displays the effect video displayed on the display effect device 11 according to the gaming state. FIG. 34A shows a daytime stage screen, which is mainly used in a state (normal state 1 or normal state 2) in which the winning probability of the pseudo bonus (third bonus or assist bonus) is low. FIG. 34 (B) is a night stage screen, which is mainly used in a state where the probability of winning a pseudo bonus is very high (ultra-high accuracy state) or an internal winning state (release winning state). Then, the player is excited with the expectation of releasing the pseudo bonus. Although not shown, there is an evening stage, which is used in a high probability state with a low probability of normal state 1 or normal state 2 and an intermediate probability between normal state 2 and ultra high probability.

  The sub-control unit 160 is a mid-stage cherry (called “single” in the industry), strong cherry, weak cherry, strong watermelon, weak watermelon or a strong bell and chance that are arranged independently of the pushing order. When a rare small role such as a role is won and further wins in the subsequent transition lottery, the screen is switched from the normal day screen and the evening screen to the night screen. On the other hand, every time a replay is won, a falling lottery is performed with a predetermined probability, so that during a general game, the normal day screen, the evening screen, and the night screen are alternately displayed at a predetermined frequency. In general, these display screens change the direction according to the stay mode such as low probability state and high probability state during bonus internal winning in order to give the player the correct mode suggestion, but the mode suggestion is not necessarily correct However, the player's expectation can be further enhanced by appropriately performing the gasse effect.

  FIG. 34C is a night scene display screen. When the player operates the start lever from the night stage screen to start the variable display game, the sub-control unit 160 determines that a predetermined condition such as when a rare small role is won. A pseudo bonus lottery (AT bonus lottery) is performed every time the above is established. When the sub-control unit 160 performs the pseudo bonus lottery, the sub-control unit 160 performs an effect of dropping the brightness on the night stage screen together with thunder. Also, a night screen is used as a precursor effect for releasing a real bonus (BB1 or BB2) or a pseudo bonus (pseudo BB, pseudo RB, or pseudo ST). In particular, when an actual bonus (BB1 or BB2) is won during normal times, the bonus stage is suggested by making a sudden change from the day stage screen to the night stage screen and performing at least two consecutive lightning effects. In addition, if the lightning effect is performed three times continuously from the daytime stage screen, it indicates that the actual bonus confirmation and the pseudo bonus lottery have been won. Therefore, it is possible to increase the player's expectation by appropriately generating thunder and sound effects.

  Stock lottery (back stock number and released stock number and type) is performed using a stock lottery table corresponding to the result lottery result in a gaming state (especially a normal gaming state) other than the pseudo ST or pseudo super ST described later. . The back stock number is a pseudo bonus or pseudo ST that is not released immediately but is released when the lottery is won. On the other hand, even if the release lottery is won (for example, 2 wins), if the back stock is zero, the pseudo bonus and the pseudo ST cannot be released, and the release winning result is discarded (discarded). . The number of released stocks is released immediately, and is released as a pseudo bonus or pseudo ST through a standby state. For example, if the stock lottery is performed with the back stock number 0, and the back stock number 2 and the release stock number 1 are won, the back stock number 1 becomes the release stock number 1, and the release stock 1 is released as a pseudo bonus or pseudo ST. Is done. In other words, if there is no back stock, the pseudo bonus cannot be released.

  When the sub-control unit 160 announces a bonus winning (actual bonus or pseudo bonus), it becomes a pseudo bonus omen in FIG. The night stage screen is displayed again (see FIG. 35 (A)), and two bats with a plate approach from a distance according to the operation of the stop button unit 10, and gradually recognize the “BONUS” character. (See FIG. 35 (B)), and finally the bat announcement effect that flies away is performed.

  Also, from the state where the night stage screen shown in FIG. 35 (A) is displayed, the display screen is scrolled to the left, the cemetery is enlarged, and the character butler screams “Ollya” and “Tiroro Lolone”. In addition to the sound effect, the character of the protagonist appears from the grave hole in the center of the screen that has been dug up, so that it is possible to create an extremely premiere effect for the player (see FIG. 35C). Freeze lottery is performed in response to the winning of the middle stage cherry role, and when it wins, the freeze shown in FIG. 33 occurs, and at least the back stock number 5 and the released stock number 5 are won, and the pseudo bonus is immediately released after the freeze effect is produced. . However, during the actual bonus waiting (inside), which will be described later, not only does the freezing lottery even if the middle stage cherry role wins internally, but also changes the stop control to stop the cherry symbol in the upper or lower stage, The middle cherry role is displayed as a double cherry role or a triple cherry role. As an effect, hiding the best middle-tier cherry role as a rare small role will not give the player a sense of loss.

  When the pseudo bonus is confirmed by the bonus release, the promotion lottery screen is displayed after the confirmation notification effect (see FIG. 36A). The pseudo bonus includes a pseudo BB and a pseudo RB, a special super game ST (stock time), and a pseudo super ST (super stock time) that simulates this game. Furthermore, there are five types of pseudo BBs: pseudo BB (white), pseudo BB (yellow), pseudo BB (green), pseudo BB (red), and pseudo BB (rainbow), depending on the difference in these colors. Thus, the pseudo BB stock probabilities in the pseudo BB game are different. Pseudo-bonus chain probability is 50% for pseudo BB (white), 60% for pseudo BB (yellow), 70% for pseudo BB (green), 80% for pseudo BB (red), and pseudo BB (rainbow) Is 90%, and the pseudo-RB bonus consecutive chance is 30%, which is the lowest. Therefore, the player expects a pseudo BB over a pseudo RB, and among the pseudo BBs, the pseudo BB (white) <pseudo BB (yellow) <pseudo BB (green) <pseudo BB (red) <pseudo BB (rainbow) Color). Beyond that, the player is particularly eager to have the black bars line up and enter the pseudo-ST (stock time).

  In the promoted lottery screen of FIG. 36 (A), a playing card diamond 7 is displayed, which suggests that the larger one in the order of numbers 2 to 10 has a higher probability of being promoted to pseudo BB. In the case of the diamond 7, it is suggested that the probability of becoming a pseudo RB is high. Every time this promotion game is played, a promotion lottery lottery (see FIG. 33) is started, and a winning lottery is executed at the timing of a single blow operation with the operation of the special button 14 being enabled. You can be promoted from 7 to diamond 10 etc. by yourself. In the promotion lottery screen shown in FIG. 36B, the diamond 7 is changed to the king of the club, and the fact that the pseudo bonus has been promoted by winning the promotion lottery is displayed. The picture card and the ace indicate that either pseudo BB or pseudo ST is confirmed. Also, club 5 is displayed on the lower left of FIG. 36 (B), which indicates that one pseudo bonus has been stocked in the promotion lottery in the promotion game, and the number 5 indicates the probability of becoming a pseudo RB. Suggests high. This stocked club 5 is a release stock that is released immediately after the pseudo bonus game.

  In the promotion lottery screen of FIG. 36 (C), the king of the club has changed to an ace of hearts, and it is displayed that the pseudo bonus has been promoted by winning the further promotion lottery. Ace indicates that any of pseudo BB (red), pseudo BB (rainbow), or pseudo ST is determined. Also, club 5 and joker are displayed on the lower left of FIG. 36C, indicating that one bonus has been stocked in the promotion lottery in the promotion game. This joker displays that the pseudo-ST has been confirmed. Therefore, the player does not suffer from the long promotion game, but desires to continue for a long time.

  The main control unit 100 (or may be the sub control unit 160) determines pseudo BB (red), pseudo BB (rainbow), or pseudo ST at the time of FIG. In the case of the pseudo BB, when the white 7 replay is won internally, the reverse push (the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c) instructs to aim at the white 7 symbol (see FIG. 37B). On the other hand, when the decision is ST, when the BAR replay is won internally, an instruction is given to aim at the BAR symbol by reverse pressing (see FIG. 37C).

  When the player correctly operates the stop button unit 10 (reverse pressing and correct operation timing) in the state shown in FIG. 37B, the white 7 replay is won and the white 7 symbols are aligned and displayed in the center horizontal line. (See FIG. 38A). Inside this white 7 symbol, a rotator portion symbol display LED capable of emitting multicolor light is arranged, and the sub-control unit 160 responds to the operation of the special button 14 to provide three rotator portions corresponding to the active line. The partial symbol display LED changes the emission color from white to yellow to green to red to rainbow. If the stop button 10 is pressed backwards but the operation timing is incorrect, the white 7 replay does not win and other replays win. In this case, the symbol with the star in the figure is V-shaped. The symbol at this position changes to five colors (see FIG. 38B). When the player reverse-presses the stop button unit 10, the main control unit 100 causes a short freeze to delay the progress of the game. Assuming that the spade 5 is displayed instead of the heart ace in FIG. 37 (B), when the white BAR replay is won internally, similarly, the reverse push (the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c). ) Instruct to aim at 7 white symbols. When the player correctly operates the stop button unit 10 (reverse pressing and operation timing), the white 7 symbol, the white 7 symbol, and the BAR symbol are displayed in a straight line on the lower right (see FIG. 24B).

  In the state of FIG. 37 (C), when the player correctly operates the stop button unit 10 (reverse pressing and correct operation timing), the BAR replay is won and the BAR symbols are displayed in a central horizontal line (FIG. 37). 38 (C)). If the stop button 10 is pressed in reverse but the operation timing is incorrect, the BAR replay does not win and another replay wins. In this case, all symbols are rainbow regardless of whether or not the BAR replay wins. Change. When the player reverse-presses the stop button unit 10, the main control unit 100 generates a short freeze and delays the progress of the game (see FIG. 38D).

  FIG. 39 is a schematic diagram showing an effect screen displayed by the display effect device and a symbol display state of the window portion.

  Assuming that the pseudo BB (rainbow color) is determined, the sub-control unit 160 determines the number of operations of the special button 14 in advance by lottery for each color to be changed, displays a color determination screen, and displays the special button. 14 is urged (see FIG. 39A). For example, by lottery, white to yellow in 3 times (see FIG. 39B), then yellow to green in 5 times, then green to red in 7 times, then red to rainbow in 10 times (See FIG. 39C), the number of operation of the color change timing is determined in advance, and the light emission color of the rotating part symbol display LED is controlled. If the white 7 replay does not win (see FIG. 38B), the symbol at the V-shaped position with the star in the figure changes to five colors in the same manner. On the other hand, when the start lever 9 is operated without operating the special button 14 in a state where the game medium is automatically inserted by any of the replay winnings, the top lamp (upper state display LED 13a) is determined. Lights and blinks in this case (rainbow color). The white design is a design as a specific color, and is a design that changes to a color corresponding to colored light emitted from behind. It is possible to change to a design of any color with only one white 7 design. Light clay color can also be used as a specific color, but white is the optimum color visually.

  40 to 41 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  The main control unit 100 is responsible not only for the role lottery but also for all the control related to the ball performance (assist function). When the above-mentioned pseudo BB (rainbow color) is activated, the stock lottery with a pseudo BB stock probability of 90% Using the table, the stock lottery is performed according to the winning combination shown in FIG. The player can select one of four types of stock lottery results (chance notification, single notification, post notification, confrontation notification). On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 receives information (assist information) on the assist function such as the role lottery result information and the operation order from the main control unit 100, and performs appropriate effects based on the information.

  When the start lever 9 is operated and the pseudo BB (rainbow color) is started, the sub-control unit 160 displays the pseudo BB start screen and displays the type and number of stock pseudo bonuses determined to be released. Are displayed on the upper left portion of the display effect device 11 (see FIG. 40A). In the main control unit 100, a 14-payout bell small role (including a pushless unrecognized bell such as a strong bell and the left 1st bell) is included 15 times regardless of the pseudo-BB bonus color (white to rainbow). Since the pseudo BB is terminated when the winning is made, even if the push order bell wins internally and is missed, it is managed as one time. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 stores numerical data of 210 sheets as pseudo BB end sheet number data corresponding to 15 small wins by the bell small part. Similarly, the pseudo RB is terminated when the bell small part is internally elected five times, and numerical data of 70 sheets is stored as the pseudo RB end number data. The display 000/210 sheets of the BB start screen is pseudo BB end sheet number data in which the left side is a payout number and the right side is an end condition, and Total is an increased number. The main control unit 100 stores the number of wins of the bell small part in the pseudo bonus. The pseudo bonus is terminated when the pseudo BB is won 15 times and the pseudo RB is won 5 times. Further, when the winning lottery in the pseudo BB is won, the winning number may be added to the base number of 15 times. For example, if 5 wins are won in the extra lottery, the pseudo BB ends when 20 wins are made, and the sub-control unit 160 adds and displays 210 sheets of the denominator as 280 sheets (5 × 14 sheets).

  When the push order bell 2-1 shown in FIG. 25 wins internally and the sub-control unit 160 receives role lottery result information (push order small role) and assist information (middle → right → left) from the main control unit 100, The pressing order of the stop button portion 10 necessary for winning the bell small part (FUR1) is displayed in yellow (bell small part suggestion) circles and numbers 1 to 3. In this case, the number 1 signifying the first stop operation is displayed in a large yellow circle and pronounced “Naka” in the voice of the hero such as Dracula or a princess (see FIG. 40B). However, if the operation is mistakenly displayed, the process shifts to RT1 in FIG. 31. In this case, when push order replay is won in order to shift again to RT2 or RT3, the same display and sound are displayed. It is designed to assist players. If the sub-control unit 160 stores the push order information of middle → right → left corresponding to the push order bell 2-1, the main control unit 100 does not need to send the operation order information.

  When the player correctly operates the middle stop button 10b, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle at the center, and enlarges the number 2 indicating the second stop operation to the large yellow circle and displays it. (See FIG. 40C).

  When the player correctly operates the right stop button 10c, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle on the right side, and expands and displays the number 3 indicating the third stop operation to the large yellow circle. (See FIG. 41A). Then, when the player finally operates the left stop button 10a, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle on the left side, and displays “GET” in the center of the screen (FIG. 41B). The payout number 14 is sequentially added to 000 and changed to 014, and the payout number 14 is added to Total “0” and changed to 14 (see FIG. 41C). The display mode in the case of adding in order is 000 → 001 → 002 → 003... → 013 → 014, and 0 → 1 → 2 → 3. On the other hand, when the push order bell combination is won internally and is missed, it is not a display form that is added in order, but a jump display form such as 000 → 014, and one game is completed.

  FIG. 42 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device, displaying a flow of video until one pseudo bonus is completed.

  The main control unit 100 stores the number of times that the bell small role has been won since the start of the pseudo BB, and the winning number of the right → middle → left in the 15th game of the bell small role is 4-1. (Refer to FIG. 26) shows a state where the internal winning is made (see FIG. 42A). In addition, although 10 of spades are additionally displayed in the upper left, it indicates that one emission stock was won during the pseudo BB (rainbow) game, and a total of three pseudo bonuses were stocked. It is discharged in order from 5 of the left club.

  When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the order of pushing right → middle → left, the main control unit 100 wins a small bell and pays out 14 game media (see FIG. 42 (B)). It is determined whether or not the end condition (the number of wins for the bell small role is 15 times) is satisfied, and if the end condition is satisfied, the pseudo BB is ended and a short freeze state of about 3 seconds is established (FIG. 42). (See (C)). The sub-control unit 160 displays that 210/210 sheets and the total number of sheets to be increased are 167 sheets. On the bonus end screen, the total number is 167 sheets, to indicate that the BIG bonus has been performed once x1, X0 is displayed to indicate that the REG bonus has been performed 0 times. In addition, the push order bell role will be added to 000 of 000/210 sheets regardless of winning or missed, but other than the bell role (for example, a rare small role cherry or watermelon) will be added to 000 at all Not. On the other hand, the actual number of winnings and payouts is added to Total, and the number of game media consumed (3 / game) is subtracted.

  43 to 44 are schematic views showing a schematic diagram of the effect screen and a symbol display state of the window portion.

  Referring now to FIG. 33, when the end condition of the pseudo BB is satisfied, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not a pseudo bonus and a pseudo ST stock that can be released exist, and if there is a release stock, the pseudo bonus or pseudo stock time. While waiting, the game moves to normal game if there is no stock. In this case, since there are three stocks and they are digested in the order in which the pseudo bonus and the pseudo ST are acquired, the promotion lottery screen of the leftmost club 5 is first displayed as in FIG. A)). When the white BAR replay is won without being promoted from the club 5, the main control unit 100 instructs the sub-control unit 160 to reversely press (the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c) to aim at the white 7 symbol ( When the player correctly operates the stop button unit 10 (reverse pressing and correct operation timing), the white BAR replay wins and the white 7 symbol, the white 7 symbol, and the BAR symbol are in a straight line on the right. They are displayed together (see FIG. 43C). However, it is the replay role of the bell symbol, the white 7 symbol, and the white 7 symbol that actually operates after winning a prize.

  When the main control unit 100 activates the pseudo RB, the main control unit 100 performs a stock lottery according to the winning combination shown in FIG. 23 using a stock lottery table with a pseudo BB stock probability of 30%. The sub-control unit 160 receives information (assist information) related to the assist function such as the role lottery result information and the operation order from the main control unit 100, and performs appropriate effects based on the information.

  When the start lever 9 is operated and the pseudo RB is started, the sub-control unit 160 displays a pseudo RB start screen, and displays the type and number of the pseudo bonus that is stored in the pattern and number of playing cards. It is displayed on the upper left (see FIG. 44A). The main control unit 100 terminates the pseudo BB when the 14-payout bell small role is internally won five times. Therefore, even if the push-order bell role is internally won and missed, it is managed as one time. . On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 stores numerical data of 70 sheets as pseudo BB end number data corresponding to the winning of the bell small part five times.

  The main control unit 100 wins the fifth small bell and pays out 14 game media (see FIG. 44 (B)), determines whether or not the pseudo RB end condition is satisfied, and determines whether the end condition is satisfied. Is satisfied, the pseudo RB is terminated and a short freeze state of about 3 seconds is set. The sub-control unit 160 displays that 70/70 sheets, and the total number of sheets that have been continuously increased from the first pseudo BB is 248 (see FIG. 44B), and the total is displayed on the bonus end screen. 248, x1 is displayed to indicate that the BIG bonus has been performed once, and x1 is displayed to indicate that the REG bonus has been performed. In addition, even if the push order bell role is won or missed, 14 is added to 00/70 00, but other than the bell role (for example, a rare small role cherry or watermelon, etc.) Not added. On the other hand, the total number actually paid and paid out is added to Total, and the consumed number (three per game) is subtracted.

  45 to 46 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device. FIG. 47 is an explanatory diagram showing types of reach eyes.

  Referring to FIG. 33, when the pseudo RB end condition is satisfied, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not a pseudo bonus to be released and a pseudo ST release stock are present. While transitioning to standby, if there is no release stock, transition to normal gaming. In this case, since there are two emission stocks and they are digested in the order in which the pseudo bonus and pseudo ST were acquired, the leftmost joker is displayed first, as in FIG. 43A, and the spade stocked immediately below is displayed. 10 is displayed (see FIG. 45A). Since the joker is in a state where the highest stock time has been determined, the main control unit 100 performs a pseudo lottery or pseudo ST stock lottery instead of the promotion lottery. This stock lottery is executed using a stock lottery table according to the result of lottery such as cherry or watermelon. Therefore, if a confirmed role or rare small role is won in the role lottery, the probability of winning the stock lottery increases (confirmed) The winning combination is 100% and multiple stocks of 2 or more). FIG. 45B shows a state in which a pseudo bonus or pseudo ST is newly won in the stock lottery, and an ace of spades in which pseudo BB (red) or more or the pseudo ST is confirmed is displayed.

  When the BAR replay is won in the state of FIG. 45 (B), the main control unit 100 instructs the sub control unit 160 to reversely press and aim for the BAR symbol (see FIG. 45 (C)), and the player presses the stop button. When the unit 10 is correctly operated, the BAR replay is won and the BAR symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal line (see FIG. 24C).

  When the main control unit 100 activates a pseudo-ST of 50 games in one set (see FIG. 33), the stock control lottery table having a probability (200%) of stocking two sets per set on average is used in FIG. Stock lottery is performed according to the winning combination indicated. In the stock lottery performed during the pseudo bonus, the number of back stock and the number and type of the stock to be released are determined. Therefore, if only the back stock is won, the pseudo bonus is not released. However, in stock lotteries conducted during pseudo-ST and pseudo-super-ST, the number and type of released stock are determined regardless of the presence or absence of back stock and without using back stock. A pseudo bonus or the like is released immediately after the pseudo ST ends. In addition, the currently stored back stock number is maintained as it is, and can be used in a pseudo bonus game, a normal game, a pseudo bonus game, or the like.

  When the start lever 9 is operated and the pseudo-ST is started, the sub-control unit 160 displays a pseudo-ST start screen (stock time start screen), and displays the type and number of pseudo-bonuses currently stored in the card pattern (type). ) Is displayed on the upper left portion of the display effect device 11. In this case, since one game has been consumed, the number of remaining games is 49, and the total is increased by 254 (FIG. 46A). reference). FIG. 46 (B) announces that a rare small role has been won in the first game of the pseudo-ST. For example, if a strong cherry (triple cherry) is won internally, a stock lottery is performed with high probability, The rotating part symbol display LEDs of the ineffective lines (except the middle stage, upper stage and lower stage) of section 2 are lit red for about 2 seconds. In this case, one bonus stock is won, and one additional Queen of Hearts whose pseudo-BB (white) or more is confirmed is displayed. Two images are added and displayed as 256 in Total (see FIG. 46C). In this pseudo ST, 50 games are executed in one set, but if no bonus stock is won among 50 games, another set is added and 50 games continue from the beginning. The number of games to be added may be determined by lottery from among 30 games, 40 games, 50 games, 100 games, and the like. Further, if the winning lottery in the pseudo-ST is won, the winning amount may be added to the basic number of 50 games.

  Rare small roles (upper watermelon, lower right watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry, reach eyes replays 1 to 12) won during the pseudo-ST are freezing lottery opportunities. When the start lever 9 is operated in the bet state after the completion, a real lottery of the next game (actual bonus, small role, replay, etc. is determined), and the game is delayed Start ST (pseudo game) and execute stock lottery. When the freeze lottery is won, the number of guaranteed games and the loop rate are set. Stock lottery to be released (release stock number lottery), continuous lottery (or also referred to as puncture lottery) for determining whether to continue or end the pseudo-super ST by performing the stock lottery, (See “Time”). The pseudo super ST is a pseudo game with a reel freeze effect imitating the game and is not a game, but as described above, the role has already been determined by the lottery and the progress of the game is stopped (or , A game to be delayed).

  When the pseudo super ST starts, a reel freeze effect is executed, and the drum unit 2 rotates in the same manner as in this game. When the number of released stocks is determined in the stock lottery and the three stop button sections 10 are operated, the corresponding drum section 2 is stopped, and one of the reach points (see FIG. 47) is displayed to display the pseudo bonus stock. Notify winners. In order to indicate to the player that the drum unit 2 is in the pseudo game state, the drum unit 2 enters a pseudo stop state in which the drum unit 2 repeats fine movements up and down after the final stop operation. Further, the number of discharge stocks is additionally displayed on the display effect device 11 by the type and number of playing cards. When the stock is released, the spinning section symbol display LED of the drum section 2 is lit or blinked in many colors (yellow, green, red, rainbow) from 2 seconds to the end of one pseudo game. There are a plurality of reach replay combinations (see FIG. 23) in which the reels actually stop at the reach eyes shown in FIG. 47. When any one of the reach replay combinations is won, according to the pressing order and the operation timing, Also in this game, it is displayed in the form of reach stop similar to FIG. In this pseudo-ST or pseudo-super ST, if the winning lottery is won, the number corresponding to the winning number is released as a pseudo-bonus or pseudo-ST through a standby state after the pseudo-ST is completed. That is, in the pseudo ST or the pseudo super ST, even if there is no back stock at all, if the winning lottery is won, it is immediately released. In addition, what has been stored as the back stock will be handed over as the back stock number even if it shifts to the normal game. Note that the reach shown in FIG. 48 includes a plurality of reach stops (for example, Getchena in the upper center of FIG. 48) that stop inside the actual bonus.

  When the start lever 9 is operated in the continuation state of the pseudo super ST, the stock lottery and the continuous lottery are performed, and the drum unit 2 rotates to start the next pseudo super ST. When the stock lottery is over, but the continuation of the pseudo super ST is decided (end condition is not established) and the three stop button sections 10 are operated, the corresponding drum section 2 is stopped in a pseudo manner, and the normal replay (middle stage replay or The continuation of the pseudo super ST is notified by displaying (upper right replay). On the other hand, when the stock lottery and the continuous lottery are defeated (the end condition is satisfied), when the three stop button portions 10 are operated, the corresponding drum portions 2 are stopped in a pseudo manner, and the losing eyes (separate but non-reach) ) Is displayed to notify the end of the pseudo-super ST, and the process returns to the pseudo-ST. If a reach replay role is won during the pseudo bonus, a stock lottery is performed and no push order is given when winning, but a right first push order is displayed when not winning (losing). At this time, when the player performs the right first operation, the middle stage replay is displayed, so there is no reach, but when the left first or right first is operated, the reach is displayed to notify the stock win It has become.

  FIG. 48 is a flowchart of the super stock time.

  When the freeze lottery is won, the main control unit 100 calls a pseudo super ST subroutine, and sets the number of guaranteed games and the loop rate in step S200. When the start lever 9 is operated in step S210, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S220, but since it is the first time, the start lever 9 has already been operated. If the start lever 9 is not operated after the second time, the time is counted up for about 20 seconds, and the process proceeds to step S220. In step S220, it is determined whether there is a guaranteed number of games. If it is not 0, the process proceeds to step S223 to determine the type of pseudo bonus or pseudo ST (referred to as pseudo bonus etc.) and to the determined type of pseudo bonus etc. Accordingly, the reach eye is determined, and the rotating drum unit 2 is stopped (or pseudo-stopped) by operating the stop button unit 10 to display the reach eye (step S225). On the other hand, if the number of guaranteed games is 0, the process proceeds to step S230, a pseudo-super ST puncture lottery (or also referred to as a continuous lottery) is performed, and whether or not the pseudo super-ST termination condition is satisfied in step S240. (That is, punctured lottery is performed at the operation timing of the start lever 9). If the termination condition is not satisfied in step S240, the number N of stocks (an integer greater than or equal to 0) is determined in step S250, and the type of pseudo bonus, etc., or stock misappropriation is determined. In addition, if N is 0, it is always wrong. However, even if N is 1 or more, if it is lost in a type lottery such as a pseudo bonus, it will be wrong. In step S255, the presence / absence of stock such as a pseudo bonus (stock winning) is determined, the reach is determined according to the type and number of the pseudo bonus, etc., and the rotating drum unit 2 is stopped by operating the stop button unit 10. (Or pseudo-stop) and reach eyes are displayed (step S225). On the other hand, if there is no stock, in order to notify that the lottery will continue, a normal replay is displayed by operating the stop button unit 10 (step S228). On the other hand, if the termination condition is satisfied, the drum unit 2 is stopped (or pseudo-stopped) by operating the stop button unit 10 to display a losing eye (step S260), the pseudo-super ST is terminated, and the pseudo-ST is finished. Execute ST again.

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

  The main control unit 100 digests the 50-game pseudo-ST, ends the pseudo-ST when the remaining number of games becomes 0, and displays that the total number of totals is 318 (see FIG. 49A). . Also, the sub-control unit 160 displays the types and number of pseudo bonuses and pseudo STs stocked in the pseudo ST and pseudo super ST in the upper left part of the display effect device 11 in association with the pattern and the number of playing cards (FIG. 49). (See (A)). In this case, six new stocks are released, and Heart Queen, Diamond 8, Spade Jack, Heart Jack, Joker and Spade 9 are additionally displayed.

  Referring now to FIG. 33, when the pseudo-ST termination condition is satisfied, the main control unit 100 always has either a pseudo-bonus or a pseudo-ST stock, and the pseudo-bonus or pseudo-stock having a high release order. Transition to waiting time. In this case, since there are 8 stocks and they are digested in the order in which the pseudo bonus and pseudo ST were acquired, first, as in FIG. 43 (A), the 10 leftmost spade promotion lottery screen is displayed and immediately below it. The other seven stocks are displayed (see FIG. 48 (B)). The main control unit 100 wins the promotion lottery, the pseudo bonus is promoted, the spade 10 is displayed as a king of spades on the sub control unit 160, and when the white 7 replay is won, the sub control unit 160 By reverse pressing (the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c), it is instructed to aim at the white 7 symbol (see FIG. 49C).

  When the player correctly operates the stop button portion 10, the white 7 replay is won and the white 7 symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal line (see FIG. 38A). Assuming that pseudo BB (green) is determined, the sub-control unit 160 determines the number of operations of the special button 14 in advance by lottery for each color to be changed, displays a color determination screen, and displays the special button 14. (See FIG. 39A). For example, the sub-control unit 160 determines in advance the number of color change timing operations by lottery, such as white to yellow in 5 times (see FIG. 39 (B)), and then yellow to green in 7 times. The light emission color of the rotating drum design display LED is controlled.

  Here, referring to FIG. 33, a game in which a real bonus (bonus 1, bonus 2) is internally won in all game states (normal game, precursor, standby, pseudo bonus, stock time, super stock time) within the square frame. When all the bonus symbols are won, the actual bonus game starts immediately. On the other hand, if the bonus symbols are not available in the game that was won internally, the game will shift to the gaming state inside the actual bonus (the loss probability is 1/2 at RT4), and the winning of the actual bonus will be announced after several intense games. . When the actual bonus symbols are arranged and the final stop operation button of the stop button unit 10 is released, a stock release lottery (lottery of the number and types of pseudo bonuses to be released) is performed. As a result, since a high-probability stock release lottery is executed at least once in one real bonus game, the player is expected to release a pseudo bonus even if he / she does not draw a rare small role during the real bonus game A feeling increases. That is, the stock lottery (the number of back stock, the number of discharges, and the type) is executed in response to the fact that the actual bonus symbols have been prepared. In addition, during the actual bonus game, a stock lottery is performed based on the winning combination that is the result of the combination lottery. The probability of winning in this stock lottery is much higher for rare roles than ordinary roles such as normal replays and bells, so the player expects that rare roles will be especially won. One real bonus game is ended when an end condition based on the number of game medals paid out (for example, exceeding a specified number) is satisfied.

  In particular, if a real bonus is won internally during a pseudo bonus or pseudo ST (stock time), it becomes RT0 (initial state) after the end of the real bonus game, RT0 state → RT1 state → RT2 state → pseudo bonus symbol win (white 7 replay) Etc.) will be in a long-term pseudo bonus waiting state where the promotion lottery is performed. Every time 10 games are played in this pseudo bonus waiting state, a pseudo bonus self-ranking lottery is performed, and when the operation of the special button 14 is enabled (internal LED is blinking), the winning lottery is performed at that timing. Is executed, and in the case of winning, it becomes “success” and the pseudo bonus is ranked up. For example, the pseudo RB is promoted to the pseudo BB (white), the pseudo BB (red) to the pseudo BB (rainbow), and the pseudo BB (rainbow) to the pseudo ST. On the other hand, in the case of a loss, the rank of the pseudo bonus is maintained. Then, when the pseudo bonus symbol is won internally, the symbol is aimed by reverse pressing, and the pseudo bonus symbol is executed again from the first starting number of 0.

  As described above, the pseudo bonus game is repeated, and all of the stocked pseudo bonuses and the like are released, and when there is “no release stock” (see FIG. 33), the normal gaming state (normal state 1, normal state) 2. Return to the high-accuracy state or the ultra-high-accuracy state. In this normal game state, stock lottery (back stock number and released stock number and type) is performed using a stock lottery table corresponding to the result of lottery for each game. In addition, depending on the number of games between bonuses The bonus release lottery is executed. The winning rate for bonus release is 20% for the first game, 3% for the 11th game, 6% for the 33rd game, 3% for the 55th game, 15% for the 77th game, 3% for the 99th game, 111 Game 3%, 222 game 3%, 333 game 30%, 444 game 5%, 555 game 10%, 666 game 5%, 777 game 50%, 888 game The game is allocated with 5% eyes and 999th game as 100%, and the bonus release lottery is not performed for other games (for example, the second game to the tenth game). Even if you win the bonus release lottery, if there is no pseudo bonus back stock (0 back stock), no pseudo bonus will be released, but at the 999th game on the ceiling, it will be 100% and at least one release stock The number and type are determined and released as a pseudo-bonus after the prelude effect.

  The probability of winning a pseudo ST (stock time) is large in the normal gaming state (normal game, pseudo bonus warning, pseudo bonus waiting) and the pseudo bonus gaming state (pseudo bonus, stock time, super stock time) of FIG. In contrast, the probability of winning the latter is significantly higher than the former (5% for the former and 50% for the latter). That is, 90% of the pseudo bonus won in the normal gaming state is pseudo BB or pseudo RB and 10% pseudo ST, while 50% of the pseudo bonus won in the pseudo bonus gaming state is pseudo BB or pseudo RB. RB is 50% pseudo-ST. The main control unit 100 stores the types of pseudo bonuses that have been stored in the order in which they are stocked, and releases the pseudo bonus that has been stored the latest (Last in First out). This makes it possible to form a series of game loops from the pseudo bonus to the stock time and from the stock time to the pseudo bonus, and to make a large wave of balls.
