Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine which hardly allows execution of a fraudulent conduct by modifying a sub control part.SOLUTION: A main control part 100 is configured to have a specification where a signal is sent from a main board to a sub control part 160 of a peripheral board so that conditional devices which have been operated upon each operation occasion on multiple stages can be narrowed down. In the sub control part 160, corresponding to a signal of which reliability of being sent is increasing on every occasion, a presentation which is caused to be generated is configured to be switched. In a case of this specification, the sub control part 160 cannot identify a conditional device when a start lever 9 is pressed down. Therefore, even if the peripheral board is modified, it is impossible to execute a navigation which affects a result of a game. The main control part 100 sends to the sub control part 160 information indicating that a combination won by an operation of the start lever belongs to a pressing-order small combination group. The sub control part 160 can generate a yellow navigation as a bell combination and a white navigation as a failure.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 76

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 greatest concern in the revolving 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. In the future, the pseudo control (assist bonus) that activates the AT function will be executed by the main control unit, and there is a problem that the control processing is increased as compared with the prior art.

  A first object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine that cannot easily perform the goto action by remodeling the sub-control unit. Another object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine that can generate a large wave of balls. Another object of the present invention is to provide a new method for determining the number of rides (privilege amount). Then, by distributing the determined extra number (privilege amount), the additional number to be displayed is efficiently dispersed. It is another object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine or the like that can suggest a set value that the player is interested in.

  Secondly, a number of pseudo bonuses (assist bonuses) are added to the revolving game machines equipped with real bonuses, and bonus stock functions that are prohibited by Unit 5 are added, as well as unique stock releases. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine or the like that can increase the fun without being exhausted by the method. Another object is to minimize the control processing performed by the main control unit.

  In the present invention, any one of a plurality of types of push order small combinations (left push order small role, middle press order small role, and right push order small role) having different winning operation orders is won, and the player aims at DDT points. However, an object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine or the like capable of displaying a symbol in a specific manner by stopping the left turning cylinder even when the left stop switch is first operated.

  In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 1 performs the internal lottery for each game with a plurality of spinning cylinders having a plurality of types of symbols arranged on the outer peripheral surface, and displays the lottery result. The lottery means to derive and a plurality of spinning cylinders for each game are rotated, and when the operation of a stop switch provided corresponding to each spinning cylinder is received, the corresponding spinning cylinder is individually stopped, and the lottery result A spinning cylinder control means for displaying a design in a corresponding manner, an effect control means for controlling a display effect device for displaying effects, a determination means for determining a non-lottery result different from the lottery result, the lottery result and the non- Transmission means for transmitting display information for displaying the lottery result to the effect control means, and the effect control means is triggered by receiving the display information, and the lottery result and the non- Perform an effect to display the lottery result, The transmission means transmits the non-display information for not displaying the non-lottery result triggered by the operation of the stop switch, and the presentation control means is triggered by the reception of the non-display information. An effect that does not display the non-lottery result is executed.

  The gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 2 includes a plurality of spinning cylinders having a plurality of types of symbols arranged on the outer peripheral surface, a lottery means for deriving a lottery result by performing an internal lottery for each game, and for each game. When a plurality of spinning cylinders are rotated and an operation of a stop switch provided corresponding to each spinning cylinder is received, the corresponding spinning cylinders are individually stopped, and a pattern is displayed in a manner corresponding to the lottery result. A torso control means, an effect control means for controlling a display effect display device for displaying effects, a determination means for determining a plurality of reliability information having different reliability values for specifying the lottery result, and the reliability information Transmission means for transmitting to the effect control means, wherein the effect control means executes the effect relating to the lottery result when the reliability information is received, and the transmission means includes the stop switch. Triggered by the operation of High reliability reliable information transmitted than information, the presentation control unit, in the response to a reception of the high reliability information, and executes an effect related to the lottery result.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, the probability can be varied by an unprecedented method. In addition, it is possible to determine the number of rides (privilege amount). In addition, every time a predetermined number of games are consumed, it is possible to expect a suggestion effect for knowing the determined set value, so that a new interest can be provided to the player.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, the No. 5 machine is provided with a bonus stock function, and the pseudo bonus stock stocked during the pseudo bonus game can be used even during the transition to the normal game. As described above, it is possible to increase the fun without being exhausted. In particular, the pseudo bonus can be released by a method unique to the present invention. In addition, if a real bonus is won during the pseudo bonus, the same type of pseudo bonus is executed again from the beginning after the bonus game ends, which is advantageous to the player. Furthermore, the advantage of the pseudo bonus can be improved. A new special zone can be added, making special games interesting. And it becomes possible to reduce the amount of control processing which a main control part performs.

  According to the gaming machine of the present invention, if the player first operates the left stop switch aiming at the DDT point, the left swirl is stopped and the symbol is displayed in a specific manner, so that the player feels uncomfortable. Never give. In addition, a single small role wins by missing multiple kinds of push order small roles, but the winning probability is higher than before (about 2/9 to about 2/3), so the number of game medals can be reduced. You can relax (that is, you can raise the base and reduce gambling).

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.

  Reference numeral 4a denotes an inserted number LED, which displays the number of game medals or credits inserted from the medal insertion unit 5 or the max bet button 8 or 1 bet button (not shown) for playing a game.

  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 set 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. The start lever 9 can be selected from set values 1 to 6 (or four-step jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7 etc.) when setting the payout rate (or machine discount). This is used to determine the desired set value. The payout rate (machine discount) is a ratio of the payout number to the input number, and is calculated as (payout number / input number) × 100%. For example, if the total number of plays is 5000 games and the number of acquisitions is 2000, the number of insertions in the 5000 games is 15000 (3 insertions in one game. 5000 × 3), and the number of acquisitions is 2000 , The number of payouts is 17000, adding them. The payout rate is (17000/15000) × 100 = 113.33 percent. The payout rate (machine discount) is approximately 96% at setting value 1, 98% at setting value 2, 100% at setting value 3, 105% at setting value 4, 112% at setting value 5, and 120 at setting value 5. It is designed to be approximately%, and is a theoretical value determined on average when a gaming machine is played for 10,000 / 1 day, and has a unique value determined for one gaming machine. In the type test, the machine discounts show the short-time play rate (less than 300% for 400 games), medium-time play rate (less than 150% for 6000 games), and long-time play rate (less than 120% for 17500 games). It is restricted so as not to exceed, and if it exceeds this, it becomes nonconforming.

  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.

  Reference numeral 12 denotes a speaker unit, which is composed of 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 sound effects and settings according to various effects, or the front door 1b Sounds an alarm when it is open or when 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 setting 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 an operation for setting a payout rate and checking a set 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 a payout rate or when canceling a game stop due to an error. The set 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, set value data, data indicating the switch operation state of the stage setting unit 150, etc.) 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 a payout operation is performed with the checkout button 6 or when the number of credits exceeds 50, for example, the maximum number, the main control unit 100 causes the payout motor of the medal payout device 18 via a drive circuit to be described later. And the required number of medals are discharged from the medal payout opening 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.

  Reference numeral 150 denotes a stage setting unit (setting change device). By performing a setting operation of a payout rate, which will be described later, the hall side responds to an event, a large number of medals released at the newly opened, and a recovery situation for improving profits. Thus, a desired set value can be selected from the set values 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. 63 is a block diagram of a control circuit for driving the payout motor. FIG. 64 is a timing chart of various drive signals. Here, drive control of the payout motor provided in the medal payout device 18 will be described.

  The main control unit 100 changes the payout device operation output of the third pin of the connector CN1 from High to Low at time t1 in order for the medal payout device 18 to pay out medals stored in the hopper. The payout motor is driven via a digital circuit. This payout device operation output signal is one instruction digital signal for instructing either driving or stopping of the payout motor, and a voltage of + 24V is applied to the first pin of the connector CN2 from the third output terminal of the drive circuit. Is output. As a result, both ends of the coil of the payout motor M are supplied with electric power for driving the motor, and the payout motor M rotates in the direction of paying out medals (see FIG. 63B).

  As an input / output function to the input terminal IN1 and the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit, the input terminal IN1 is High and the input terminal IN2 is Low, and a voltage of + 24V is output from the third output terminal (see FIG. 63B). The terminal IN1 is High and the input terminal IN2 is High and a short brake is applied (see FIG. 63C), the input terminal IN1 is Low and the input terminal IN2 is Low and OFF (high impedance), and the payout motor is stopped. (See FIG. 63D). The short brake is a brake applied by short-circuiting both terminals of the rotating dispensing motor M. When both terminals of the coil are short-circuited, a current flows due to the counter electromotive force and heat is generated, and a force is generated in a direction that hinders the rotation of the dispensing motor M. However, the rotating shaft of the dispensing motor M is not completely locked. PS1 is a thermistor, and its own resistance value increases due to overcurrent (or heating), thereby limiting the current flowing to the load and protecting the discharge motor M. A voltage for reverse rotation is generated when the input terminal IN1 of the payout motor M is Low and the input terminal IN2 is High, and the brake is applied more than the short brake. This reverse rotation mode may be set to the brake mode or the brake state. .

  The digital circuit includes an OR gate IC2, an AND gate IC3, an OR gate IC4, an OR gate IC5, an RC integration circuit, and noise filters (R5, R6, and C8). When the main control unit 100 changes the dispensing device operation output from High to Low at time t1, the 1st and 2nd input terminals of the OR gate IC2, the 4th input terminal of the AND gate IC3, and the 13th input terminal of the OR gate IC5 Is changed from High to Low, while the third output terminal of the OR gate IC2 is changed from Low to High, but the voltage of the capacitor C of the RC integrating circuit is inputted to the fifth input terminal of the AND gate IC3. The output waveform of the capacitor C rises to about 63% but is delayed by a time determined by the time constant (τ = C × R) of the integration circuit, so that the response is slowed and the voltage rises slowly (see FIG. (See 64 Pin 5). Since the 6th output terminal of the AND gate IC3 is Low only when both the 4th input terminal and the 5th input terminal are High, the 9th and 10th input terminals of the OR gate IC4 remain high after the time t1. The 12th input terminal of the OR gate IC5 also remains High. The 11th output terminal of the OR gate IC5 becomes High if either the 12th input terminal or the 13th input terminal is Low, and therefore, High is input to the input terminal IN1 of the drive circuit at the time t1. The Since the 8th output terminal of the OR gate IC4 is Low when both the 9th input terminal and the 10th input terminal are High, Low is input to the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit at time t1. As a result, since a voltage of +24 V is output from the third output terminal of the drive circuit, the payout motor M rotates (forward rotation) in the direction for paying out medals.

  When paying out medals, the main control unit 100 changes the payout device operation output (instruction digital signal) from High to Low at time t1 to change to the drive instruction state, and outputs a detection signal of the medals paid out by the payout sensor 160. Count to determine whether the required amount (N) of medals has been paid out. The payout of the payout motor M is instructed to stop by detecting the payout of N medals at the fall of the Nth detection signal and changing the payout device operation output from Low to High at time t2.

  When the stop instruction state is entered at time t2, the first and second input terminals of the OR gate IC2, the fourth input terminal of the AND gate IC3, and the thirteenth input terminal of the OR gate IC5 change from low to high, while the OR gate The third output terminal of IC2 changes from High to Low, but the voltage of the capacitor C of the RC integration circuit is input to the fifth input terminal of the AND gate IC3. Since the response of the output waveform of the capacitor C is delayed by the time determined by the time constant (τ = C × R) of the integration circuit, the voltage slowly drops (see the 5th pin in FIG. 64). The 6th output terminal of the AND gate IC3 becomes Low only when both the 4th input terminal and the 5th input terminal are High, but when the capacitance (C) and resistance (R) of the integrating circuit included in the digital circuit are provided. Since the 5th input terminal maintains High for a time determined according to a constant (τ = C × R), both the 4th input terminal and the 5th input terminal become High during the delay time, and after the delay time 5 As a result of only the No. input terminal being Low, the No. 6 output terminal of the AND gate IC3 is Low during the delay time and maintains High after the delay time. The 9th and 10th input terminals of the OR gate IC4 and the 12th input terminal of the OR gate IC5 have the same waveform as the 6th output terminal. This delay time is not the time constant (τ = C × R) itself, but the response delay time of the gate IC generated according to the integration circuit.

  The 11th output terminal of the OR gate IC5 becomes High if either the 12th input terminal or the 13th input terminal is Low, so that High is continuously input to the input terminal IN1 of the drive circuit even at the time t2. Is done. Since the 8th output terminal of the OR gate IC4 is High when either the 9th input terminal or the 10th input terminal is Low, High is input to the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit at the time t2. . As a result, both the input terminal IN1 and the input terminal IN2 become High, and the short brake shown in FIG. 63C is applied to the payout motor M during the delay time. The 6th output terminal of the AND gate IC3 becomes High after the delay time, the 12th input terminal of the OR gate IC5 becomes High similarly to the 6th output terminal, and the 13th input terminal is also High, so that the 11th input terminal of the OR gate IC5. The output terminal goes low after the delay time. Since the 8th output terminal of the OR gate IC4 is Low when both the 9th input terminal and the 10th input terminal are High, Low is input to the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit after the delay time. As a result, both the input terminal IN1 and the input terminal IN2 become Low, and after the delay time, the payout motor M is stopped because it becomes OFF (high impedance) shown in FIG. When the short brake state in FIG. 63 (C) is changed to the OFF state (high impedance) in FIG. 63 (D), the payout motor M is still rotating slightly in the positive direction, so let's maintain that rotation. As a result, back electromotive force is generated at both ends of the coil.

  That is, two control digital signals (the 11th output signal of the OR gate IC5 and the 8th output signal of the OR gate IC4) generated from the instruction digital signal (output device operation output) are used to drive the payout motor M. The digital circuit which inputs into the 1st input terminal (IN1) and 2nd input terminal (IN2) of the drive circuit which supplies is provided. This digital circuit instructs a drive mode in which a voltage of + 24V is output to the drive circuit when an instruction digital signal in the drive instruction state is output from the main control unit 100 (payout device operation output is Law). When an instruction digital signal in the stop instruction state is output from the main control unit 100 (dispensing device operation output is High), the circuit instructs the drive circuit in a brake mode in which a short brake is applied during a delay time (brake time). Then, after the delay time, the drive circuit is instructed to stop in the power OFF state.

  FIG. 65 is timing chart actual measurement data of various drive signals.

  When the main control unit 100 changes the dispenser operation output from High to Low at time t1, the digital circuit keeps the input terminal IN1 of the drive circuit high and the input terminal IN2 low. As a result, a voltage of + 24V is output from the third output terminal of the drive circuit, and the payout motor M rotates in the direction of paying out medals.

  When the main control unit 100 changes the dispenser operation output from High to Low at time t2, the digital circuit sets both the input terminal IN1 and the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit to High for the delay time t3. As a result, during the delay time t3, both the coil terminals of the payout motor M are short-circuited (short-circuited), and the short brake is applied. The digital circuit sets both the input terminal IN1 and the input terminal IN2 of the drive circuit to Low after the delay time t3. As a result, both terminals of the coil of the dispensing motor M are turned off (high impedance), and the dispensing motor is stopped. The payout motor M does not stop completely, but slowly rotates in the positive direction, so that it can be seen that the counter electromotive force is generated at both ends of the coil even in the actual measurement value.

  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.

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, the door enters the 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. From the normal state to the high-probability replay state, when the RT transition replay symbol is displayed, the next game and later will be in the RT state. In this RT state, the small role symbol is displayed or the fall replay symbol is displayed. When displayed, the game is in a normal state after the next game.

  Although a detailed view of the lottery table (lottery data) is omitted, there are six lottery tables 1, lottery tables 2,... 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 the 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. In addition, it is not restricted to the lottery table of a part which determines a payout rate. For example, even if the special game lottery table is used to increase the winning probability of a special game (such as an AT game or a notification game) according to the set value, using the same lottery table for all the set values 1 to 6 Good. Thereby, although the lottery probability of the combination in the setting values 1 to 6 is made the same, the chance zone transition rate for shifting to the special game and the winning probability of the special game can be changed according to the setting value.

  FIG. 74 is a conceptual diagram of the special lottery table. FIG. 75 is a game state transition diagram (RT state). Note that BB and RB in FIG. 18 are described as two-kind continuous operation devices (so-called penetration bonuses) that do not change the RT state at all.

  The special 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. The difference from FIG. 18 is that a winning area (number) for the big bonus and the regular bonus is newly provided, and the losing is reduced only by that area, and each of them is enlarged 10 times to 100 times in total. That is, when the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery, the big bonus is won if the random value is in the range of 0 to m1 and n1 + 1 to n2. If the random value is in the range of m1 + 1 to m2 and n2 + 1 to m7, the regular bonus is won. The main control unit 100 uses the special lottery table by changing (shifting) the setting of the payout rate when a predetermined condition relating to the game is satisfied. When the predetermined condition is satisfied in the normal state using the lottery table (game state RT0) in FIG. 18A, the main control unit 100 changes (shifts) the setting, and the lottery in FIG. 74A. A lottery is performed using the table (game state RT2). When the predetermined condition is satisfied in the RT state using the lottery table (game state RT1) in FIG. 18B, the main control unit 100 changes (shifts) the setting, and FIG. Alternatively, the lottery table (game state RT3) of FIG. 74 (B) is used. As a result, the winning probability of the big bonus and the regular bonus becomes about 10 to 100 times, so that a so-called probability fluctuation (probability change) state is brought about. On the other hand, when the end condition is satisfied in this probability variation state, the main control unit 100 changes the lottery table in FIG. 74A to the lottery table in FIG. It should be noted that the lottery table in FIG. 74 (B) can be shifted to the lottery table in FIG. 18 (A) or FIG. 18 (B).

  The predetermined condition and end condition may be anything as long as they relate to the state relating to the game. For example, when the start lever 9 is operated and the setting transition replay with a winning probability of about 1/1000 is internally won, the setting is changed (setting transition), and at the same time, the fanfare is played to notify that, After this game, the special lottery table is used to change the probability variation state. That is, the operation of the start lever 9 is a setting change operation. On the other hand, when the start lever 9 is operated in the probability fluctuation state, the setting change replay with the winning probability of about 1/100 has been won internally, and at the same time, the player is disappointed or depressed. Play the music and tell the effect, and use the lottery table corresponding to the setting and RT state in the next game to set the normal setting state. That is, the operation of the start lever 9 also serves as a setting change operation. The setting for using this special lottery table is “0”, and cannot be changed to the setting “0” by the setting changing device. If it is changed, the set value is re-entered.

  As the setting transition replay, only the setting transition replay RT2 is won in the state of RT0. However, when the transition symbol is displayed by the RT1 replay a to RT1 replay n, it becomes the state of the chance zone RT1a to RT1n, and the setting transition replay is performed. The winning probability changes from 1/300 to 1/10. In the state of RT1a to RT1n, in addition to the setting transition replay RT2, the setting transition replay RT3 can be won, and when the setting transition replay RT3 is won, the state transitions to the state of RT3. When the transition symbol is displayed by RT0 replay in the state of RT1a to RT1n, the state returns to the state of RT0. In the RT2 state with the setting “0”, in addition to the set fall replay, the RT3 replay can also be won, and when the RT3 replay is won, the state shifts to the RT3 state. The state of RT3 is a large chance zone where the set fall replay is not won, and if BB or RB wins in this state, permanent continuous change is possible. When the transition symbol is displayed by RT2 replay in the RT3 state, the state returns to the RT2 state. In most cases, BB and RB are won at the same time as the rare small role, and after the inside of the bonus, when the bonus symbol is displayed, the BB game or RB game is played and the original RT state is returned.

  As another embodiment, a case where the predetermined condition is a bonus combination will be described. The BB role (big bonus) is assumed to be a probability bonus, and the RB role (regular bonus) is assumed to be a normal bonus. The BB combination is a penetrating bonus, but is an RB combination type actuating device, and returns to RT0 after the RB bonus ends. In the pachislot machine according to the present invention, it is assumed that the setting of the payout rate or the machine discount can be changed to any one of 1 to 6 by the setting change device.

  In the initial state (RT0), the main control unit 100 performs a lottery of a role using the lottery table (non-RT) of setting 6 shown in FIG. 18A, and when the RT transition replay symbol is displayed, FIG. Since the lottery of the combination is performed using the lottery table (RT1) of setting 6 shown in FIG.

  In the RT0 state or the RT1 state, the main control unit 100 wins the RB combination internally, plays the RB game after displaying the symbol, and returns to RT0 when the RB game ends. On the other hand, the main control unit 100 plays the BB game after the symbol BB is won internally in the RT0 state or the RT1 state and the symbol is displayed. When the BB game ends and the transition condition (setting change condition) is satisfied, the main control unit 100 shifts from the current setting 6 to another setting 0. This transition condition is triggered by any one of the operation of the stop switch of the game, the insertion of a game medal of the next game, the operation of the next game input button, or the start operation of the next game almost simultaneously with the start operation of the game. And the current setting is transferred to another setting. If the BB combination is won in the state of setting 0, the state is again set to 0 after the BB game, but if the RB combination is won, the RT1 state of the original setting 6 is set after the RB game. In other words, since the state of setting 0 ends when the RB game by the RB combination is completed, the bonus is guaranteed at least once when setting 0 is reached. If the winning ratio of the BB combination and the RB combination is set to 1: 1, the probability of ending in 5 consecutive channels including the first BB can be calculated as 1/8. Also, if the winning ratio of the BB role and the RB role is 4: 1 (BB probability 80%), the probability of ending with 5 consecutive chunks will be about 1/10, and the probability of continuing more than 4 consecutive will be 4/10. It is also possible to chain up. If a plurality of types of probability variation BB combinations are provided and the winning ratios of the BB combination and the RB combination differ according to the types, the interest increases.

  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 the state where the spinning machine is shipped from the factory, as a default, the warning mode when the operation for setting the payout rate is performed is “ON”, and the stop setting unit 180 (stop setting switch) is “OFF”. ”And the setting value is assumed to be the lowest“ 1 ”.

  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, an initial check (hardware abnormality check, etc.) and initial settings (for example, a stop setting flag “1”, a setting value “1” stored in the ROM 101, and an initial value of control data are written in the RAM 102) are executed. 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 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 set value, the main control unit 100 checks the occurrence of an abnormality such as a door open, a hopper error, or a selector error. If the process returns to S100 and there is no abnormality, the process proceeds to step S150. In particular, the main control unit 100 checks that the set value data stored in the work RAM area is 0 to 5 (the set values displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c correspond to 1 to 6 respectively) as an abnormality check. If the set value is not within the predetermined range, a warning (“EE” error character display, light emission, and light emission) is displayed by the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. (Warning sound) is 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, if the player performs the right first operation, the middle stage replay will be displayed, so there will be no reach, but if the left first operation or middle first is operated, the reach will be 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) Are selected at the same time (see the push order 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.

  Although not shown in the figure, a left-first push order small combination can be created by overlappingly winning a plurality of small combinations having similar functions. For example, in the push order bell 5, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent second stop operation of the correct answer is the push order small part of the middle stop button 10b. In the push order bell 6, the correct first stop operation is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent correct second stop operation is the right stop button 10c push order small combination.

  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 change, and a game or bonus game (BB1 or BB2: 1 type immediately after the set value is re-entered) Alternatively, the general game starts in the initial state (also referred to as “initial replay state”) from the next game in which the 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 the predetermined number, it will only be RT4, bonus game, RT0. I can't do it.

  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. The main control unit 100 controls whether or not to activate the pseudo bonus, and has a function that the conventional sub control unit 160 has performed. That is, the sub-control unit 160 is irrelevant to the pseudo bonus release. However, the sub-control unit 160 may control the winning of the pseudo bonus as usual.

  When the set value is re-entered, various data are cleared and set according to the set value to be in an initial state, and a 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. A game number display section (game number display area) is formed in the upper right of the display effect device 11. When the power is turned off from the power-off state, the number of games is cleared and displayed as 0G. Thereafter, one game is added each time a game start operation is received. FIG. 34A shows that 110 games have been executed when the power is turned on from the power-off state. 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. FIG. 34 (B) shows that the next game is accepted from the state of FIG. 34 (A) and the 111th game is being executed.

  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 shows a night scene display screen. When the player operates the start lever from the night stage screen to start the variable display game, the main control unit 100 determines that a predetermined condition such as 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 further enhance the player's expectation by appropriately generating thunder and sound effects. The pseudo bonus lottery may be executed by the sub-control unit 160. FIG. 34C shows that the 111th game has been digested from the state of FIG. 34B, and the 222nd game is being executed.

  When one of the push order small combinations groups (push order bell 1 to push order bell 6) is won internally by the operation of the start lever 9 in the normal game state and the precursor game state, the main control unit 100 pushes the push order small combination. Only information (for example, a winning combination command) indicating that is won is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. Thus, the sub-control unit 160 can know that the push order small combination has been won, but cannot know the push order information for winning the bell combination (winning purpose small combination) with the highest payout. Thereby, even if the control software of the sub-control unit 160 is tampered with, the goto action cannot be executed. In other words, when the start lever 9 is operated, the main control unit 100 transmits the winning combination information to the sub-control unit 160, so that the goto action can be easily performed.

  Specifically, in the normal gaming state and the precursor gaming state, the main control unit 100 first displays information indicating that the winning combination by the operation of the start lever 9 is a push order small role group. Send to. The sub-control unit 160 can generate yellow navigation as a bell role and white navigation as a loss. Secondly, the main control unit 100, when any of the stop button units 10 is subjected to the first stop operation in a state where the drum unit 2 is all rotating, the first stop operation is the correct operation or the incorrect operation. Is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 may continue the yellow navigation if it is a correct operation, or cancel the yellow navigation if it is an incorrect operation. Third, the main control unit 100, when the drum unit 2 is rotating two times, if any of the stop button units 10 is subjected to the second stop operation, the second stop operation is performed as a correct operation or an incorrect operation. Information indicating the operation is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 continues the yellow navigation if the first stop operation and the second stop operation are both correct operations, and wins the bell role in the third stop operation. May not cancel the yellow navigator.

  FIG. 76 is a transmission image diagram of winning combination information.

  The main control unit 100 is configured to transmit a signal from the main board to the sub-control unit 160 of the peripheral board so that the condition devices that are operated in multiple stages can be narrowed for each operation trigger. In the sub-control unit 160 (sub-board), the effect to be generated is switched in accordance with the signal of increasing reliability sent for each opportunity. In the case of this specification, the sub-control unit 160 does not know the condition device when the lever is pressed, so even if the peripheral board is remodeled, navigation that affects the game result cannot be performed.

  FIG. 77 is a conceptual diagram showing a notification effect screen for winning combination information.

  First of all, when an internal winning combination by operating the start lever 9 is a chance winning combination, the main control unit 100 determines the chance winning combination (winning winning combination) and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations (in this case, a cherry winning combination). , Bell role, watermelon role) information is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 displays information on the winning combination and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations on the display effect device (see FIG. 77A). Secondly, when any one of the stop button portions 10 is subjected to the first stop operation, the main control unit 100 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, a cherry role) Role) and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations (in this case, a bell role and a watermelon role) are transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, the cherry role), and displays information on the winning combination and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations on the display effect device (see FIG. 77B). ).

  Third, when any one of the stop button portions 10 is stopped, the main control unit 100 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, the bell role) Information) and non-internal winning combination (in this case, watermelon combination) are transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, the bell role) and displays information on the winning combination and the non-internal winning combination on the display effect device (see FIG. 77C). Finally, when the stop button unit 10 is stopped for the third time, the main control unit 100 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, the watermelon role), and information on the chance objective (winning role) Is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 excludes one of the non-internal winning combinations (in this case, the bell role), and displays the winning combination information on the display effect device (see FIG. 77D).

  FIG. 78 is a conceptual diagram showing a winning effect information notification effect screen and a drum section.

  First of all, when an internal winning combination by operating the start lever 9 is an actual bonus combination, the main control unit 100 determines an actual bonus combination (winning combination) and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations (in this case, a bell combination). , A replay combination) information is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160, and a BAR symbol effect command for targeting the BAR symbol is transmitted. The sub-control unit 160 displays information on the winning combination and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations on the display effect device (see FIG. 78A), and performs the first stop operation on the left stop button 10a aiming at the BAR symbol. The BAR symbol effect for instructing is executed.

  Secondly, when the first stop operation is correctly performed, the BAR symbol stops at the lower stage of the left reel, and the main control unit 100 performs the actual bonus combination (winning combination) and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations (in this case) , A bell role and a replay role) are transmitted to the sub-control unit 160, and a BAR symbol effect command for targeting the BAR symbol is transmitted. The sub-control unit 160 displays information on the winning combination and a plurality of non-internal winning combinations on the display effect device (see FIG. 78B), and performs the second stop operation on the right stop button 10c aiming at the BAR symbol. The BAR symbol effect for instructing is executed.

  Third, when the second stop operation is correctly performed, the BAR symbol stops on the upper stage of the right reel (see FIG. 78 (E)), and the main control unit 100 sub-controls the information on the actual bonus combination (winning combination). A BAR symbol effect command for targeting the BAR symbol is transmitted to the unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 turns the displayed “bonus”, “bell”, and “replay” sequentially on and blinks like roulette to rotate the character, and stops the middle stop button 10b for the BAR symbol. BAR symbol effect for instructing to operate is executed. In FIG. 78 (E), the BAR symbol, the bell symbol, and the replay symbol are in a tempered state.

  Finally, when the third stop operation is correctly performed, the main control unit 100 stops the BAR symbol at the lower stage of the middle reel, and notifies the winning of the actual bonus by losing eyes (one of the reach eyes in FIG. 47) ( FIG. 78 (F)). The sub-control unit 160 displays the winning combination (actual bonus) information on the display effect device (see FIG. 78D). When the “bell” or “replay” is won, the main control unit 100 can give a stimulus to the player by executing a similar effect.

  FIG. 66 is a flowchart showing a lottery table and effect processing procedure.

  The sub-control unit 160 receives setting value data (data indicating any one of 1 to 6) for each game in addition to various control control data from the main control unit 100 when a plurality of cylinders start rotating. ing. The setting suggestion effect of the setting value data will be described.

  The setting suggestion effect includes a game number display portion (area) provided at the upper right of the display effect device 11, a light emission effect whose frame is slightly shining pink, and a stop button portion 10 (left stop button 10a, middle stop button). 10b and the right stop button 10c). The game number counter is cleared to 0 when the power is turned on (power is turned on) or the real bonus and the pseudo bonus are ended. When this game number counter becomes 111 games, 135 games, 222 games, 246 games, 333 games,..., 1111 games, 1222 games, a range of 0 to 32767 is selected for a lottery to determine whether or not to execute the setting suggestion effect. If the random number generated in is extracted and the random number is less than the set number, it is won.

  The sub-control unit 160 clears the game number counter N to 0 in step S410, and in accordance with the start operation of the start lever 9 in step S415, the lottery result and setting value (step setting value) transmitted by the main control unit 100 ). Then, the sub-control unit 160 determines in step S420 whether or not a bonus (real bonus or pseudo bonus) is in effect, and if in bonus, the game is ended by operating the stop button unit 10 in steps S450 to S470 (step S480). Then, the process returns to step S415 to wait for the start operation of the start lever 9 again. On the other hand, if the bonus is not in effect, 1 is added to the game number counter N in step S425, and the game number counter N matches the game number counter value (eg, 111 games, 135 games... 1222) in the lottery placement number table in step S430. Judge whether to do. If they do not match, the sub-control unit 160 returns to step S415 via steps S450 to S470 and step S480. On the other hand, if they match, the production lottery (the random number is extracted in step S435 and the random number is less than the set number). If it is not a win, the process proceeds to step S450 and subsequent steps. If it is a win, a light emission effect is first performed in step S440. In addition, in response to an operation of the stop button unit 10, a vibration effect that vibrates the stop button unit 10 is performed.

  Specifically, in the state of FIG. 34 (A) of the 110th game, when the winning lottery result and the set value 1 are received by the start operation of the start lever 9, the sub-control unit 160 determines that the game is the 111th game. (See FIG. 34 (B)), and matches the game number counter value 111, so an effect lottery is performed to extract a random number (value 100), and this random number value 100 <set number 6553 (set value 1). It is determined that the relationship of the number of placements corresponding to) is satisfied, and the suggestion effect is executed to make the game number display portion (area) and its frame light up slightly in pink. When the first stop operation corresponding to this “1” (any of the left button, middle button, and right button) is accepted because the setting value is 1, the vibration motor disposed in the stop button unit 10 is moved. When the player is caused to vibrate to suggest the set value 1 and the operation button is released, the vibration is stopped. On the other hand, if the extracted random number is a value of 6553 or more, it is determined to be unsuccessful and the suggestion effect is not executed.

  When the sub-control unit 160 enters the state shown in FIG. 34C, this game is the 222nd game and matches the game number counter value 222, so an effect lottery is performed and a random number (value 2000) is set. Is extracted, and it is determined that the relationship of random number value 2000 <place number 3276 (place number corresponding to setting value 1) is satisfied, suggestion effect is executed, and the game number display portion (region) and its frame are Make it light pink. When the second stop operation (any of the left button, the middle button, and the right button) corresponding to this “2” is accepted as a fake effect of the set value 2 in spite of the set value 1, the stop is performed. The vibration motor arranged in the button unit 10 is vibrated to cause the player to fake the setting value 2 (false suggestion effect), and when the operation button is released, the vibration is stopped. On the other hand, if the extracted random number is a value of 3276 or more, it is determined to be unsuccessful and the suggestion effect is not executed. In this way, by intermingling the correct suggestion effect and the false suggestion effect, there is a specific effect that the player can imagine various setting values.

  As indicated in the remarks of the lottery table (see FIG. 66 (A)), the suggestion contents by the suggestion effect are set value 1 suggestion for the 111th game, odd setting suggestion for the 135th game, and set 2 for the 222nd game. Suggestion 246th game suggests even setting, 333th game suggests setting 3, suggests 444th game suggests, 456th game suggests setting 4 or more, or even setting suggestion, 555th game suggests setting 5 or more, odd suggestion, 666 game The eye is setting 6 or even suggestion, the 777th game is setting 6 suggestion, the 888th game is setting 23456, the 999th game is setting 3456, the 1111th game is setting 456, and the 1222th game is setting 56.

  In other words, one of a plurality of set values is determined, the game has a normal game and a special game that is more advantageous than the normal game, and the main control unit 100 is triggered by the transition condition being established, Transition from normal games to special games. The sub-control unit 160 executes a suggestion effect that suggests the determined set value. There is an suggestion effect lottery table that determines lottery data according to a plurality of set values and the number of games, and the sub-control unit 160 performs the lottery of the suggestion effect using lottery data determined by the suggestion effect lottery table. The probability that the transition condition to the special game is established is determined according to the determined setting value, and the sub-control unit 160 is triggered by reaching the number of games according to the determined setting value, If the winning lottery of the suggestion effect is performed and the winning lottery is won, the suggestion effect is executed. The lottery data (number of placements) determined by the suggestion effect lottery table is set so that the winning probability is high when the relationship between the determined setting value and the content of the suggestion effect is correct, while the winning probability is set low when it is not correct. (See FIG. 66A). The plurality of set values take either odd or even values, and take any value from integer 1 to integer 6.

  FIG. 67 is a flowchart showing a lottery table and effect processing procedure.

  The setting suggestion effect is a vibration effect that vibrates the stop button unit 10. However, you may perform the above-mentioned light emission effect together at the time of suggestion effect execution setting. Steps S510 to S525 in this figure are the same as steps S410 to S425 in FIG.

  In step S530, the sub-control unit 160 determines whether or not the game number counter N matches a game number counter value (eg, 111 games, 222 games... 1222, 1333) in the lottery placement number table. If they do not match, the sub-control unit 160 returns to step S415 via steps S450 to S470 and step S480. On the other hand, if they match, an effect lottery (a random number is extracted and the random number is less than the set number). If it is a win, the process proceeds to step S550 and subsequent steps. If it is a win, a suggestion effect flag (suggest effect execution setting) is set in step S540, and the stop button unit 10 is operated. Then, preparation for performing a vibration effect that vibrates the stop button unit 10 is made (however, a light emission effect may be executed).

  Specifically, in the state of FIG. 34A of the 110th game, when the winning lottery result and the set value 2 are received by the start operation of the start lever 9, the sub-control unit 160 determines that the game is the 111th game. (See FIG. 34 (B)), and matches the game number counter value 111. Therefore, a lottery is performed to extract a random number (value 5000), and this random number value 5000 <set number 4096 (set value 2). It is determined that the relationship of the number of placements corresponding to) is not satisfied, and the suggestion effect is not executed. On the other hand, if the extracted random number is a value less than 4096, it is determined that the winning is selected, and the suggestion effect flag is set. When the sub control unit 160 accepts the first stop operation corresponding to “1” as the fake effect of the set value 1 despite the set value 2, the sub control unit 160 is arranged in the stop button unit 10. The vibration motor is vibrated to suggest the player the set value 1 and when the operation button is released, the vibration is stopped.

  When the sub-control unit 160 enters the state shown in FIG. 34C, this game is the 222nd game and matches the game number counter value 222, so an effect lottery is performed and a random number (value 2000) is set. Is extracted, it is determined that the relationship of random number value 2000 <place number 8192 (place number corresponding to set value 2) is satisfied, and a suggestion effect flag is set. And since it is the set value 2, when the first stop operation and the subsequent second stop operation corresponding to this “2” are accepted, the vibration motor arranged in the stop button portion 10 is vibrated to give the set value to the player. When the operation button is released, the vibration is stopped. That is, in both the first stop operation and the second stop operation, the vibration motor is vibrated to suggest a set value of 2 or more to the player. Then, in the third stop operation, control is performed so as not to allow vibration. Similarly, if the game is the 333th game and matches the game number counter value 333, and the suggestion effect flag is set by winning the lottery, the vibration motor is vibrated in all of the first stop operation to the third stop operation. And suggesting a set value of 3 or more to the player.

  Further, when the game is won in the 444th game and the suggestion effect flag is set, the first stop operation to the third stop operation of the 444th game and the first stop operation of the next game (445th game) are vibrated. The motor is vibrated to suggest a set value of 4 or more to the player, and is not vibrated in the second stop operation to the third stop operation. If the 555 game is won, all the first stop operation to the third stop operation and the first stop operation to the second stop operation of the next game (556 game) are vibrated and the set value is set for the player. 5 or more is suggested, and the third stop operation does not vibrate. If the 666 game is won, all the first stop operation to the third stop operation and the first stop operation to the third stop operation of the next game (667th game) are all vibrated to cause the player to set the set value 6 It suggests. For example, in the case of setting 3, the probability of winning the suggestion effect in the 333th game is as high as 25% (8192/32768), and in other cases up to the 666th game, it is set as low as 12.5% (4096/32768). . From the 777th game onward, the correct suggestion effect is made. For example, in the case of setting 1, the probability of winning the suggestion effect in the 777th game is as high as 50% (16384/32768), and the 888th game After that, it is set as low as 6.25% (2048/32768). The same applies to other set values.

  As a predetermined condition for performing the pseudo bonus lottery described in FIG. 34 (C), the lottery condition is established when the acquired score (point) reaches or exceeds a predetermined threshold. In other words, it is the same meaning that the rare small role is elected.

  FIG. 59 is a point distribution table. FIG. 59A shows the point width after the lottery, FIG. 59B shows before the lottery, and FIG. 59C shows the point width for the winning combination.

  When the main control unit 100 receives the operation of the start lever 9, it determines the winning combination from all the combinations (see FIG. 23). In FIG. 59 (A), the replay combination (middle or upper right replay) is the internal winning combination. Then, the main control unit 100 receives 0 points for the 1-2-3 operation (left → middle → right, the same applies hereinafter) of the stop button unit 10, 0 points for the 1-3-2 operation, 2- 1 point for 1-3 operations, 0 points for 2-3-1 operations, 0 points for 3-1-2 operations, 3 points for 3-2-1 operations It shows that the point distribution table (table data) was created in advance by lottery. As shown in FIG. 59 (C), this point is determined by a lottery with a point width ranging from a minimum of 0 points to a maximum of 3 points for the replay combination. The expected value is fixed so that 4/6 points can be obtained on average.

  FIG. 59 (B) shows that the main control unit 100 creates a point distribution table for all the points to be awarded (see FIG. 23) in advance before accepting the operation of the start lever 9 (before determining the combination). It shows that. As the points eligible for points, we have listed unsuccessful (losing), replay, push order bell, upper watermelon, triple cherry, strong chance eyes, but there are also weak watermelon and double cherry, etc. ) Just omits them. The point width and average point are 0-6 for unsuccessful selection (losing), 3/6 for push order bell 0-2, 1/6 for upper watermelon 1/6, 20/6 for triple cherry 10/6, 36/6, strong chances 6-12, 50/6, and real bonus is 50 (regardless of the pressing order, 50 points can be obtained in any way). Is determined by lottery for each game.

  Implementation pattern 1: There are point 1 as a pseudo bonus lottery point and point 2 as a ceiling point, and the set value is re-set and cleared and initialized to 0. There is a threshold 1 as a threshold for pseudo bonus lottery and a threshold 2 as a threshold for ceiling. The threshold 1 is set to 200 points and the threshold 2 is set to 2000. The point 1 starts from the initial value 0 and is accumulated and added every time a point is acquired. For example, when both the point 1 and the point 2 are the initial value 0, the strong chance of FIG. 59 (B) is drawn, and if the operation order at that time is 2-3-1, 12 points are acquired. And point 2 is 12 respectively.

  In this way, when both point 1 and point 2 reach 197, the triple cherry of FIG. 59 (B) is drawn, and if the operation order at that time is 1-2-3, 5 points will be obtained. , Point 1 and point 2 are 202 respectively. The main control unit 100 performs a pseudo bonus lottery based on the fact that the point 1 reaches the threshold value of 200 points in addition to the pseudo bonus lottery when the triple cherry (rare small role) is won. The main control unit 100 subtracts 200 points of the threshold 1 from 200 points of the point 1 and carries over the point 1 as 2 points, while keeping the point 2 as 202 points, and adds the acquired points as described above. go. When the point 2 reaches (or exceeds) the threshold value 2 2000 points, the pseudo bonus is won. In addition, if the point 1 is won by the pseudo bonus lottery based on reaching the threshold 1, if the point 2 is cleared to 0, it can be a ceiling point between bonuses. That is, if the pseudo bonus or the actual bonus is not won until the point 2 reaches 2000 of the threshold value 2, the pseudo bonus is forcibly released.

  Implementation pattern 2: The main control unit 100 determines a threshold 3 as a threshold for releasing a game section (for example, 30 games) and a pseudo bonus. In the game section determination method, first, the 10th place and the 1st place are drawn by lottery to determine the number of games as a game section. The tenth place is 1 to 9, and the first place is 0 to 9, so the game section is in the range of a minimum of 10 games to a maximum of 99 games. There are Table 1 to Table 9 as the lottery tables for determining the threshold 3, the table 1 is selected for the game sections 10 to 19 games, the table 2 is selected for the game sections 20 to 29 games,... A section is selected in 90 games to 99 games. The main control unit 100 selects the tables 1 to 9 according to the game section, and determines the threshold value 3 by lottery using the selected table data. For example, in Table 1, 50 points are 10%, 100 points are 40%, 150 points are 30%, 250 points are 20%, and the threshold 3 is a small value. It is advantageous for the person.

  For example, when a role to be awarded is determined as a normal replay role or a specified small role (a reduced small number of 1 or 2 payouts, a role that must be won without being affected by the pressing order), the main control is performed. The unit 100 determines the operation sequence of the stop switch in advance (before operation). When there are three stop switches, the operation sequence is left → middle → right, left → right → middle, middle → left → right, middle → right → left, right → left → middle, right → middle → left. However, the winning probability of each operation order is 42/256, and all pushing orders are won with a probability of 4/256 (that is, six correct answer operations).

  When the stop switch is actually operated in the operation sequence determined in advance, the main control unit 100 determines the points to be given by lottery and accumulates and counts all the points determined through the game section. The main control unit 100 compares the magnitude relationship between the accumulated points and the threshold 3, and determines whether the transition condition is satisfied. For example, when it is determined that the accumulated point is equal to or exceeds the threshold 3, the transition condition is satisfied, and the main control unit 100 shifts from the normal game to the special game that is a pseudo bonus. Since the accumulated points exceeding the threshold 3 are carried over to the next game section and added, it is advantageous for the player. On the other hand, if the transition condition is not satisfied, the game section and the threshold 3 are determined again, and the normal game is repeated. In addition, even if the 29th game section ends after the pseudo bonus, if the pseudo bonus continues to be lost, the 30th game section becomes a ceiling period, and if the role to which points are awarded is won, it becomes a notification game and points are given The order of pressing is notified. Accordingly, the player can easily obtain points and can win a pseudo bonus (ceiling function). Further, when the number of ceiling games (for 2000 games, the pseudo bonus is lost) may be reached, it may be a notification game.

  Execution pattern 3: The main control unit 100 executes a predetermined bonus (generally referred to as “the number of ceiling games”) of a normal game as a trigger from a normal game to a pseudo bonus (a game more advantageous than the normal game) ). Further, the points acquired during the pseudo bonus are stored in the RAM 102. The acquired points are either the total number of paid out game medals (total number of paid out medals) or the increased number of acquired game medals (increased number of medals). However, electronic data such as stored medals stored in the membership card may be used. The main control unit 100, when the points acquired in this special game exceed the points acquired in the previous special game (that is, the number of paid out medals or the number of net increase is greater or exceeded in this time than in the previous game) ), The number of low-ceiling games that is less than the number of ceiling games that is uniquely defined (low number) is newly set, and the next special game is triggered by the execution of the normal game with the number of low-ceiling games. To move to.

Implementation pattern 4:
FIG. 60 is a conceptual diagram of a lottery table.

  There are 1 to N lottery tables (lottery information) (N is a natural number of 2 or more), and the relationship among the number of selected games, the selection probability, and the winning probability is defined. For example, the lottery table 1 selects a selection probability of 5% and a winning probability of 25% for 32 selected games, and a selection probability of 5% and a winning probability of 30% for 64 selected games. For 96 games, the selection probability is 5% and the winning probability is 50%. For the selected game number, 128 games, the selection probability is 80%, and the winning probability is 10%, for the selected game number is 256 games. The selection probability is 5% and the winning probability is 100%. The lottery table 2 to the lottery table N-1 and the lottery table N store the illustrated data in the same manner as the lottery table 1.

  The main control unit 100 determines one lottery table from among the lottery tables 1 to N. For example, one lottery table may be equally determined by lottery with a probability of 1 / N, but may be determined by lottery with different probabilities. With respect to the current lottery table 1, as the probability of being selected next time, the lottery table 1 is 1 / N, the lottery table 2 is 2 / N, the lottery table 3 is 3 / N,... At / N, the lottery table N is biased to either 0 / N. For example, when the main control unit 100 determines the lottery table 1, the selection game number of 32 games is selected with a selection probability of 5%, the selection game number of 64 games with a selection probability of 5%, and the selection game number of 96 games with a selection probability of 5 The selected game number is determined from among a plurality of selected games by drawing lots of 128 selected games with a selection probability of 80% and 256 selected games with a selection probability of 5%. Of course, the total selection probability is 100%, and the probability that 128 games of the number of selected games are selected is the highest at 80%, and the other selected games are all drawn at 5%. For example, when the selected game number 128 games are selected by lottery, the main control unit 100 performs a winning lottery with a winning probability determined corresponding to the selected game number as 10%. Similarly, the winning probability is 25% for 32 selected games, the winning probability is 30% for 64 selected games, and the winning probability is 96 for 96 selected games. In the case of 256 games of the number of selected games, the winning lottery is performed with the winning probability being 100%.

  The main control unit 100 performs a winning lottery when the normal game shown in FIG. 33 is executed for the determined number of selected games. For example, when 128 games of the selected number of games are selected by lottery, the main control unit 100 performs a winning lottery with a winning probability of 10% when the normal game of 128 games is executed, and enters a high probability state by the winning lottery. When the condition for shifting is satisfied (when the winning lottery is won, the predetermined condition is satisfied), the probability of winning the pseudo bonus (the degree to which the condition for shifting to the special game is satisfied) is shifted to a high probability state. The main control unit 100 releases the pseudo bonus (shifts to the special game) when the pseudo bonus is won in the normal game in the high probability state (establishment of the transition condition). On the other hand, if the winning lottery is performed with a winning probability of 10% and the condition for shifting to the high probability state by the winning lottery is not satisfied, one lottery table is selected again from the lottery table 1 to the lottery table N, and the number of selected games The winning lottery is performed with the winning probability determined corresponding to the number of selected games, based on the execution of the base game of the determined number of selected games. Similarly, even when the game has shifted to a high probability normal game but the pseudo bonus has not been won, selection of the lottery table, determination of the number of selected games, and winning lottery with a corresponding winning probability are repeatedly executed. Also, the same processing is performed after the special game ends. If all the winning probabilities of the lottery table 1 to the lottery table N in FIG. 60 are 100% (that is, all winners), it is possible to make a transition to a normal game in a high probability state for every determined number of selected games. In other words, information on the winning probability is unnecessary. Furthermore, when winning in the winning lottery, it is possible to shift to a special game instead of shifting to a high probability state normal game.

  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. The promotion self-drawn lottery is executed in response to the operation of the start lever 9 for the predetermined number of games (tenth game) to determine whether or not the promotion is performed, and the special button 14 which becomes effective after the tenth game starts. You may make it perform the alerting | reporting effect of promotion (for example, the promotion effect to the diamond 10, or the non-promotion effect which leaves the diamond 7 as it is) by one blow operation.

  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 with 20 wins, and the sub-control unit 160 adds 210 denominators to 280 (70 additions of 5 × 14) and displays the addition. To do.

  In particular, all the roles won during this pseudo-BB (upper watermelon, lower right watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry, strong bell, push order bell, reach replay 1-12, normal replay, etc.) Has a function as a point granting role, and an expected value of points given according to each role is determined. The main control unit 100 executes a pseudo game as a freeze effect when the total points acquired based on the point granting role has reached 100 points (threshold value) during one pseudo BB.

  The main control unit 100 operates the start lever 9 to execute a role lottery, selects a point lottery table corresponding to the winning combination, and performs a point giving lottery. The main control unit 100 adds this point to the current total point, and when the total point reaches 100 points, executes a pseudo game (freeze effect) in the game. First, the main control unit 100 performs an extra continuation rate lottery. The additional continuation rate is 66% (winning rate 70%), 80% (winning rate 20%), or 90% (winning rate 10%). With an additional continuation rate of 66%, continuation is won at about 2/3 on average, and since it ends at about 1/3 (continuation is wrong), 3 will be won as the average number of continuations N (Referred to as loop lottery). Similarly, an average of 5 wins is won at an additional continuation rate of 80%, and an average of 10 wins at an extra continuation rate of 90%. Next, since the guaranteed number of times n (for example, 2 times) is added to the determined number of continuations, the number of lotteries is (N + n) times (in this case, 3 times + 2 times 5 times), and this number of white 7 symbols A pseudo game in which the lines are aligned is executed (see FIG. 38A). The freeze effect is executed by the main control unit 100, and the progress of the game (game) is delayed, and a plurality of reels are changed during the delay so that special symbols (white 7 symbol, blue 7 symbol, BAR symbol) Etc.) is stopped and displayed in a predetermined format. The number added, the number of games, the number of times of navigation, etc. are referred to as “addition amount”.

  68 and 69 are explanatory diagrams of the distribution process of the number of effect notifications in the pseudo game.

  As the additional type, weak performance (70% winning prize by adding 70 pieces of 5 × 14), medium production (20% winning ratio by adding 140 pieces of 10 × 14 pieces), strong production (280 pieces of 20 × 14 pieces) The main control unit 100 determines the addition type by (N + n) times (in this case, 5 times) lottery (see FIG. 68 (A)). The main control unit 100 transmits data 1 to the sub-control unit 160 as the production information when the weak production is won, data 2 as the production information when the middle production is won, and data 3 as the production information when the strong production is won. Weak productions, medium productions, and strong productions are different in production, and for example, the production time becomes longer in order, and the movement and rotation direction of the reels change and become diverse and exaggerated, which can give the player a sense of expectation it can. The sub-control unit 160 changes the white 7 symbol to yellow for the weak performance, green for the medium performance, and red for the strong performance at the timing when the three white 7 symbols are aligned in the pseudo game (see FIG. 39). Further, the sub-control unit 160 stores 40 sheets for the weak effect, 100 sheets for the medium effect, and 200 images for the strong effect as the minimum notification number (minimum notification amount).

  The main control unit 100 produces a weak effect (70 sheets) in the first addition type lottery, a weak effect in the second addition type lottery, a medium effect (140 sheets) in the third addition type lottery, and a fourth addition type lottery. It is shown that the strong effect (280 cards) is won in the fifth extra lottery and the pseudo game is played in this order (see FIG. 68 (B)). Upon receiving the additional type information, the sub-control unit 160 recognizes by calculation that the total added is 630 (70 × 3 + 140 + 280), and calculates the number of effect notifications, current step information, and effect step information according to the additional type. Set on the table. The number of performance announcements set first is 420 (the minimum announcement number 40 × 3 + 100 + 200), and the difference from the total of 630 added is 210. The current step information indicates the number of additions, and is initially set to data 1 indicating all ones. The production step information indicates the maximum number of additions, and is determined and set by lottery. When the current step information matches the production step information, the addition of the production announcement number is finished.

  The sub-control unit 160 adds a predetermined amount of 20 sheets to the final stage number of presentations (fifth stage) to give 220 sheets in order to announce as many as possible in the second half as much as possible, and adds 1 to the current step information. To 2 (see FIG. 68C). The same calculation is performed in the order of the next number of effects (fourth) to the number of effects (first) (see FIG. 68D). In this figure, the total number of effect announcements is 520, and the difference from the added total of 630 is 110, so when the number of effects (first time) ends, the number of effects is again returned to the last number of effects (fifth). In addition, you may make it differ for every additional amount by which predetermined amount was decided, such as 10 weak effects, 20 medium effects, and 40 strong effects.

  When the sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of productions (fifth), the current step and the production step are not equal, so 20 is added to the production announcement number to 240, and 1 is added to the current step information to 3 (See FIG. 69A). Similarly, the sub-control unit 160 also performs an addition process for the number of productions (fourth) to the number of productions (third). The sub-control unit 160 executes the addition process at the number of effects (first time) without executing the addition process because the current step is equal to the effect step at the effect number (second time). In this figure, the total number of effect announcements is 600, and the difference from the added total of 630 is 30. Therefore, when the number of effects (first time) is completed, the number of effects is returned to the last number (5th). When the sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of performances (fifth) again, the current step and the production step are not equal, so 20 is added to the production notification number to 260, and 1 is added to the current step information. 3 (see FIG. 69A). Since the number of performances (4th) is not the same as the current step and the production step, the number of production announcements is added, but since the remaining number is 10, 10 is added to 90, and the distribution process of the production announcement number is finished. To do. As a result, the actual number of presentation notices that are actually added and displayed as the additional number is 70 for the first time, 70 for the second time, 140 for the third time, 70 for the fourth time, and 280 for the fifth time. The first time is 80 sheets, the second time is 60 sheets, the third time is 140 sheets, the fourth time is 90 sheets, the fifth time is 260 sheets, and the number of times can be changed to 260 sheets. If the current step and the production step are the same for all productions, the distribution process should be terminated. However, when the total number of production announcements does not reach the total and there is a remaining production The sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of performances (fifth) again until the remaining number of additional sheets reaches 0, and sequentially adds 20 sheets in order to make the total of the number of presentation notices coincide with the additional total. The distribution process ends. At this point, the sub-control unit 160 knows the order of the first to fifth effects (weak effect, medium effect, strong effect) and displays an image prompting the player to operate the start lever. Wait for the start signal to arrive.

  The main control unit 100 executes a pseudo game (freeze effect) in the game, and when the player operates the start lever, the main control unit 100 transmits an effect start signal to the sub-control unit 160. Align the seven white symbols in a straight line. The sub-control unit 160 emits the white 7 symbols in yellow at that timing, displays the first effect notification number 80, and displays an image prompting the player to operate the start lever again. However, if the player does not operate the start lever, the main control unit 100 assumes that the tart lever has been operated after 8 seconds of the waiting time, and automatically sends an effect start signal. Align three white 7 symbols in a straight line. The main control unit 100 sequentially executes the determined reel effects (weak effect, medium effect, strong effect) after operating the start lever or after the standby time has elapsed, and similarly aligns the white 7 symbols in a straight line. The sub-control unit 160 emits the white 7 symbols to the corresponding colors at that timing, and displays 60 sheets for the second time, 140 sheets for the third time, 80 sheets for the fourth time, and 240 sheets for the fifth time. Thereafter, the main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 end the pseudo game, return to the pseudo bonus, and the sub control unit 160 adds and displays a total of 630 cards in the denominator.

  70 and 71 are explanatory diagrams of the distribution process of the number of effect notifications in the pseudo game.

  The number of pseudo games determined by the main control unit 100 is a loop lottery when it is automatically executed, and is theoretically infinite. Therefore, the maximum number of pseudo games is predetermined as 8, and the number of extra games exceeding the maximum number is notified by operating the special button 14 after the eighth pseudo game. Is 300 sheets. In other words, when the special notification is made by operating the special button 14, 300 or more sheets are confirmed.

  FIG. 70 (A) shows that the number of continuations is 8 and the number of lotteries is 10 after adding n times (eg, 2) of guarantees.

  The main control unit 100 produces a weak effect (70 sheets) in the first, second, fourth, sixth, and eighth addition type lotteries, and a medium effect (140 sheets) in the third, seventh, and tenth addition type lotteries. ) In the fifth and ninth addition type lottery, a strong performance (280 cards) is won, and pseudo games are performed in this order (see FIG. 70A). Upon receipt of the additional type information, the sub-control unit 160 recognizes by calculation that the total added is 1330 (70 × 5 + 140 × 3 + 280 × 2), and the number of presentation notices, current step information and production according to the additional type Step information is set on the calculation table. Since the maximum number of times is 8, the number of performance announcements set first is 600 (the minimum number of announcements 40 × 5 + 100 × 2 + 200), and the difference from the added total of 1330 is 730, the minimum number of announcements The number is over 300. All the current step information is set to data 1 indicating one time. The production step information indicates the maximum number of additions, and is determined and set by lottery. When the current step information matches the production step information, the addition of the production announcement number is finished.

  The sub-control unit 160 adds 20 to the number of effect notifications of the last effect number (8th) to 60, and adds 1 to the current step information to 2 (see FIG. 70 (B)). The same calculation is performed in the order of the next number of effects (seventh) to the number of effects (first). In this figure, the total number of performance announcements is 760, and the difference from the total of 1330 additions is 570 (the minimum number of announcements exceeds 300). Return to the number of times (8th).

  When the sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of effects (eighth), the current step is equal to the effect step, so the sub-control unit 160 shifts to the next number of effects (seventh) without executing the addition process. The sub-control unit 160 adds the number of presentations to 140 by adding 20 to the number of presentations, and adds 3 to the current step information to 3 because the number of presentations (seventh) is not equal to the current step. (See FIG. 70C). Similarly, the sub-control unit 160 also performs addition processing for the number of effects (sixth) to the number of effects (third). Since the current step is the same as the production step at the number of productions (second time), the addition process is not executed, and the addition processing is executed at the next production number (first time). In this figure, the total number of performance announcements is 880, and the difference from the total of 1330 additions is 450 (the minimum number of announcements is more than 300). Return to the number of times (8th).

  When the sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of effects (eighth) again, the current step is equal to the effect step, and the process shifts to the next number of effects (seventh) without executing the addition process. The sub-control unit 160 adds 20 to the number of effect notifications to 160 by adding the number of effects to the current step information because the current step and the effect step are not equal in the number of effects (seventh). (See FIG. 71A). Similarly, the sub-control unit 160 also performs addition processing for the number of effects (sixth) to the number of effects (third). Since the current step and the production step are the same for the production number (second time) and the production number (first time), the addition process is not executed. In this figure, the total number of production announcements is 980, and the difference from the total of 1330 additions is 350 (minimum announcement number of more than 300). Return to the number of times (8th).

  When the sub-control unit 160 returns to the number of effects (eighth) again, the current step is equal to the effect step, and the process shifts to the next number of effects (seventh) without executing the addition process. The sub-control unit 160 adds 20 to the number of effect notifications to 180 by adding the number of effects to the current step information because the current step and the effect step are not equal in the number of effects (seventh). (See FIG. 71 (B)). Similarly, the sub-control unit 160 also performs addition processing for the number of performances (sixth), and at this time, the difference between the total number of performance notifications and the total added is 310, and the remaining number is 10 sheets. ing. The sub-control unit 160 has the number of performances (fifth), and the current step and the production step are not equal. Therefore, the additional number of additions is 270 by adding 10 to the number of production announcements, and 1 is added to the current step information. Add to 5 In this figure, the total number of performance announcements is 1030, and the difference from the total of 1330 additions is 300, which is the same as the minimum number of announcements 300. To do. As a result, the first number is 70, the second is 70, the third is 140, the fourth is 70, the fifth is 280, the sixth is 70, the seventh is 140, The number of performance announcements that are actually displayed on the 8th is 70. The first is 80. The second is 60. The third is 160. The fourth is 100. The fifth is 270. The sixth time can be changed to 100 sheets, the seventh time can be 180 sheets, and the eighth time can be changed to 60 sheets. If the current step and the production step are equal in all the production times, the final added number exceeding the minimum number of announcements 300 is collectively announced by operating the special button 14. At this point, the sub-control unit 160 knows the order of the first to eighth presentations (weak production, medium production, strong production) and displays an image prompting the player to operate the start lever. Waiting for the arrival of the start signal, after the eighth presentation, a summary notification is executed by operating the special button 14. Thereafter, the main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 execute the pseudo game (freeze effect) described above in the game.

  FIG. 71 (C) shows the minimum number of sheets in the case of making a summary notification. In other words, the continuation count is 7 times, the guaranteed count is n times (for example, 2 times), the lottery count is 9, and the weak performance is won in all 9 times. This shows that the main control unit 100 performs the pseudo game in this order. When receiving the additional type information, the sub-control unit 160 recognizes by calculation that the total added is 630 (70 × 9), and calculates the number of effect notifications, current step information, and effect step information according to the additional type. Set on the table. Since the maximum number of times is 8, the number of performance announcements set first is 320 (the minimum announcement number of 40 × 8). The difference from the total of 630 sheets added is 310 sheets, which exceeds the minimum number of notification sheets of 300 sheets by 10 sheets. All the current step information is set to data 1 indicating one time. The production step information indicates the maximum number of additions, and is determined and set by lottery.

  The sub-control unit 160 adds this 10 to the number of effect notifications of the final effect number (8th) to 50, and adds 1 to the current step information to 2 (see FIG. 71 (D)). . In this figure, the total number of performance announcements is 330. The difference from the added total of 630 sheets is 300 sheets, which is the same as the minimum number of notification sheets of 300 sheets. As a result, the number of added sheets was originally 70 for the first to eighth times, but 40 sheets for the first to seventh times and 50 sheets for the eighth time as the number of performance announcements to be actually added and displayed. It can be changed and can be separated into a wide variety. At this time, the sub-control unit 160 knows the order of the first to eighth presentations (all weak presentations), displays an image prompting the player to operate the start lever, and receives the presentation start signal. After waiting for the eighth presentation, a summary notification is executed by operating the special button 14, and the final added number exceeding the minimum notification number 300 is collectively notified by operating the special button 14. Thereafter, the main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 execute the pseudo game (freeze effect) described above in the game.

  That is, in a gaming machine capable of executing a normal game and a special game that is advantageous over the normal game by being given a bonus on the game as a game, a plurality of times in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the outer peripheral surface. A torso, a role lottery means for internally drawing a role for each game, and a plurality of spinners for each game, and the operation of a stop switch provided corresponding to each of the torso Individually, and a symbol display control means for displaying a symbol according to the result of the internal lottery, and a privilege amount determination means for determining at least one privilege amount from a plurality of predetermined privilege amounts And a display amount determining means for determining a display privilege amount to be displayed on the display device, and an input means for inputting an operation signal by a player's operation, wherein the display amount determining means determines the determined privilege amount. To the corresponding minimum privilege amount An arithmetic operation is added, and the total of the determined privilege amount is matched with the total of the displayed privilege amount and the final notification amount. After the display device displays all the displayed privilege amount, the operation signal is input. Then, the final notification amount is displayed.

  Returning to FIG. 25, the sub-control unit 160 receives the internal winning of the push order bell 2-1 shown in FIG. 25, and the main lottery result information (push order small combination) and assist information (middle → right → left). ) Is received, the order of pressing the stop button 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.

  72 and 73 are schematic diagrams of the effect screen displayed by the display effect device, and show the flow of the effect of informing the added number.

  When the start lever 9 is operated during the pseudo BB, the main control unit 100 wins, for example, a center cherry role (which is also called “single” as a two-sheet payout role), and wins an extra lottery. The number of added sheets (addition amount) is determined by.

  The main control unit 100 determines an additional base number composed of 10's and 1's. First, a lottery is selected in the range of 0-9 as the 10th place. For example, if 7 is selected from 1-9, the 10th place becomes 7, but only when 0 is chosen, The maximum value of 111 is determined. Next, lottery is performed in the range of 0 to 9 as the first place. For example, if 4 is selected, the first place becomes 4 and the base number to be added is determined to be 74. As a result, the additional base number is determined to be either a natural number in the range of the lowest value 10 to 99 or the highest value 111. And the main control part 100 draws a magnification in the range of 1-9, for example, if 5 wins, a magnification will be determined as 5 times. It should be noted that the larger the added base number and magnification, the lower the winning probability. The main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 that the winning combination is the center cherry, wins the extra lottery, and notifies that the extra base number is 74 and the magnification is 5 times.

  Upon receiving the command, the sub-control unit 160 calculates the added number (74 × 5) and recognizes that it is 370, and performs a hot effect indicating that any rare small role has been won (FIG. 72). (See (A)). When the stop button unit 10 is operated for the first stop, the sub-control unit 160 displays an additional basis number 74 (see FIG. 72B), and when the second stop operation is performed, “×” means multiplication. "Is displayed (see FIG. 72C).

  When the third stop operation is performed, the sub-control unit 160 displays a magnification of 5 (see FIG. 73A), and at the timing of releasing the button by the third stop operation, 370 of the recognized additional number is added. (See FIG. 73 (B)), 370 is added to 210 of the denominator to display 580, and the two winning prizes are added to 113 to display 115. The same applies to the extra effect in the pseudo RB described below.

  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. For example, (1) When an extra lottery is won during the pseudo-ST, the number of extra games to be given is determined. Then, the display effect device 11 displays an extra ball according to the number of additional games (addition amount), digests the 50-game pseudo-ST, and performs the additional effect when the remaining number of games becomes zero. Add the winning prize to this 0 game. The color of the extra ball suggests that the light blue is 5 games or less, the yellow is 10 games or less, the green is 30 games or less, the red is 50 games or less, and the rainbow color is more than 50 games. Specifically, the main control unit 100 first performs a lottery transition to the extra chance zone in response to the fact that a rare small role has been won in the role lottery, and when the winning lottery is won, further point lottery is performed, Determine the grant points to be granted. Instead of executing the transfer lottery, (2) Triggered by the fact that a specific role (special replay role or chance eye replay role) was won during the pseudo-ST, it must be transferred to the extra chance zone and the granted points It may be determined.

  FIG. 61 is a conceptual diagram of the specialization table for addition and the selection screen.

  The additional specialization table (see FIG. 61A) includes additional specialization 01 to additional specialization 20 as types, and the necessary points and the expected additional value are associated with each additional specialization game. For example, in the case of specialization 10 for addition, it indicates that 10 points are necessary for selection, and the average number of additional games (expected expected value) is 30 games. However, the range of the number of games to be added is determined by lottery so that it falls within a minimum of 10 games to a maximum of 50 games.

  FIG. 61 (B) is a selection screen of the display effect device 11 displayed to the player. The transition to the extra chance zone is 20 points determined, and multiple selections are made within a total range of 20 points. Indicates that you are instructed to do. In FIG. 61 (C), the player operates the cross key 7 to select three additional specializations 02, one additional specialization 04, and one additional specialization 10 indicated by hatching. It shows that it is 0 points. Note that only one additional specialization 15 may be selected, or two additional specializations 09 may be selected and discarded without using the remaining two points. However, if there are unused points, a warning screen is displayed to alert you. When the start lever 9 is operated in the state of FIG. 61 (C), the main control unit 100 performs the additional specialization 02 (expected additional value 6 games) three times and the additional specialization 04 (expected additional value 12 games). One extra special 10 (30 expected additional games) is added once and a lottery is executed, and an average of 60 games (base N1) is added, so the extra balls are displayed in rainbow colors. Then, the 50-game pseudo-ST is digested, the multiplication coefficient (N2) is determined when the remaining number of games becomes 0, and the base N1 × multiplication coefficient N2 (for example, 60 games × 5 times) is displayed in order. An extra production is performed, and the extra prize is added to the remaining 0 games.

  FIG. 62 is a flowchart showing a pseudo-ST game progress processing procedure.

  When the main control unit 100 starts the pseudo ST of one set of 50 games, the main control unit 100 calls this subroutine for each pseudo ST game. In step S300, the main control unit 100 checks whether or not the number of remaining games in the pseudo-ST is 0. If the game is 0, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S305. If not, the process proceeds to step S310. Check if the chance zone (extra special zone) has been won. If it has not been won, the process proceeds to step S300. If it has been won, the process proceeds to step S320, and a grant point is determined by lottery. In step S330, an additional special zone (addition) selected according to the given point. Special game). In step S340, the player operates the cross key 7 to select one or more additional special zones, and when the start lever 9 is operated, the main control unit 100 executes the additional special game in S350. Then, the base N1 of the extra game is determined, and the process proceeds to step S300. In addition, even if a plurality of additional chance zones are won in one set of pseudo STs, they are accumulated and added to N1 by the same process.

  When the remaining number of games in the pseudo ST becomes 0 in step S300 and the process proceeds to step S305, the main control unit 100 checks whether or not the radix N1 is 0, and if it is 0, the normal game of FIG. ) Or pseudo-bonus standby (stocked), but if not 0, the process proceeds to step S360. The main control unit 100 determines a multiplication coefficient N2 in step S360, calculates a base N1 × multiplication coefficient N2 (multiplication of N1 × N2) in step S370, displays a base N1 after displaying the base N1 in step S380, In step S390, the calculation result (60 games × 5 times 300 games) is displayed, and a new pseudo-ST for 300 games is executed. If the coefficient N2 is 1, the radix N1 is directly added to the number of games (additional amount), so that the arithmetic processing is not necessary. This extra amount is a concept that includes all extras such as the number of payouts, the difference number, and the number of navigations.

  Rare small roles (upper watermelon, lower right watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, middle cherry, reach eyes replays 1 to 12) won during this pseudo-ST are freeze 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) (see FIG. 33).

  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, if the player performs the right first operation, the middle stage replay will be displayed, so there will be no reach, but if the left first operation or middle first is operated, the reach will be 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.

  FIG. 50 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 different symbols (red seven symbol, BAR symbol, bell symbol, cherry symbol, watermelon 1 symbol, watermelon 2 symbol, replay symbol, blank 1 symbol, blank 2 symbol, blank 3 symbol). Twenty pieces are arranged in each cylinder. In addition, since the combination display determination of a symbol is the same as that of FIG. 22, description is used.

  FIG. 51 is a payout table at the normal time and at the time of bonus operation. However, only the three types of bells (appearance) and obstruction (one) are necessary for the description of the push order small part of the present invention, and the bonus (first type combination) described in FIG. The thing continuous operation device), the rare small combination and the replay combination are simply omitted. Therefore, the same combination can be adopted as necessary, and the description is omitted.

  (1) Upper bell (FUR1): When the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (cherry), and the right drum 2c (watermelon 1) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed on the upper stage. The top bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 14 (one of the specific small roles with the highest payout).

  (2) Middle bell (FUR2): This is a title when the bell symbols are aligned and stopped on the effective line of each drum, and the number of winning symbols is 14 (one of the specific small roles with the highest payout).

  (3) Lower right bell (FUR3): When the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (bell design), and the right drum 2c (replay) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell design appears on the lower right. Displayed, and the lower right bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 14 (one of the specific small roles with the highest payout).

  (4) Multiple types of single-piece roles A: For example, when the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (watermelon 2), and the right drum 2c (red seven) are aligned on the active line and stopped Role A 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 from one combination A1 to one combination An (n is a natural number of 2 or more) as necessary. Either the middle first middle push order or the right first right push order (the two push order small roles are push orders other than the left first left push order). In the first stop operation, when the left stop button 10a is operated, this is a one-piece small role group for inhibiting the winning of the bell small role (winning purpose small role or specific small role). The feature of this one-piece combination A is that the symbol of the left drum 2a is a replay symbol and is the same symbol as the upper bell.

  (5) Multiple types of single-piece roles B: For example, when the left drum 2a (blank 1), the middle drum 2b (watermelon 2), and the right drum 2c (replay) are aligned on the effective line and stopped Role B wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired is one. This one-piece combination is a small combination for stop control, and there are plural types of one-piece combination B1 to one-piece combination An (n is a natural number of 2 or more) as necessary. When the left first left push order small win is elected internally and either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop operation, the bell small role (winning purpose small role or specific small role) This is a one-piece small role group to prevent winning.

  FIG. 52 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small combinations) of condition devices for left push order small combination (left first).

  Push order small part (push order bell) is a prize for a small bell part (upper bell, middle bell, or lower right bell) when the operation order of the stop button part 10 (push order of the stop button part 10) is correct. On the other hand, in the case of incorrect answers, when winning one of multiple types of small ones that are won at the same time, and a number of stubby (bell small portion missing symbols, dividend 0) It is a duplicate winning prize that sometimes displays one of them.

  In the left-pressing order bell 1, the correct first stop operation is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent correct second stop operation is the middle stop button 10b. There are 9 types of left push order bell 1 from left push order bell 1-1 to left push order bell 1-9, so the player loses one piece by looking at the appearance of each reel (stop symbol). The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol. The left push order bell 1 is a push order small part of the double push order type, the first small part whose purpose is to win a prize (upper bell part: FUR1), and the second whose purpose is to block the winning of the first small part. A plurality of types of second small roles (in this case, six types of single small roles (FUR11 to FUR16: blank 1-watermelon 2-replay,..., Cherry-watermelon 2-replay), and first small The third small part constituting the third small part for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the part (FUR4: either to the left drum (replay), to the middle drum (bell / blank 1), to the right drum (BAR / cherry) Are selected at the same time (see the left push order bell 1-1 in FIG. 52).

  In the left push order bell 2, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small part of the right stop button 10c. There are nine types of left push order bell 2 from push order bell 2-1 to left push order bell 2-9, so that, as with left push order bell 1, the player determines the appearance of each reel (stop symbol). The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated aiming at a symbol so as not to miss a single combination. Others are the same as the left-pressing order bell 1, and the description is omitted.

  FIG. 53 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small combinations) of condition devices for medium pressing order small combinations (medium first).

  In the middle push order bell 3, 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 left stop button 10a. There are nine types of middle push order bells 3 from middle push order bell 3-1 to middle push order bell 3-9, so the player should not miss a single piece by looking at the appearance of each reel (stop symbol). The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol. The middle push order bell 3 is a push order small part of the double push order type. The first small part (middle bell part: FUR2) for the purpose of winning a prize, and the second small part for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the first small part. A plurality of types of second small roles (in this case, six types of single small roles) and a third small role (FUR5) constituting a third small role for the purpose of inhibiting the winning of the first small role ) Wins at the same time (see push order bell 3-1 in FIG. 53).

  In the middle push order bell 4, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent second stop operation of the correct answer is the push order small part of the right stop button 10c. There are nine types of the middle push order bell 4 from the middle push order bell 4-1 to the middle push order bell 4-9, so that, as with the middle push order bell 3, the player looks at the appearance of each reel (stop pattern) 1 The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated with the aim of a symbol so as not to miss the combination. Since others are the same as that of the middle push order bell 3, the description is omitted.

  FIG. 54 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small combinations) of condition devices for right-pressing small combinations (right first).

  In the right-pressing order bell 5, 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 combination of the left stop button 10a. There are nine types of right-pressing order bell 5, from right-pressing order bell 5-1 to right-pressing order bell 5-9, so that, as with middle-pressing order bell 4, the player determines the appearance of each reel (stop symbol). The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated aiming at a symbol so as not to miss a single combination. Others are the same as the middle push order bell 3 and the like, and the description is omitted.

  In the right-pressing order bell 6, 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 combination of the middle stop button 10b. There are nine types of right-pressing order bell 6 to right-pressing order bell 6-1 to right-pressing order bell 6-9, so that, as with right-pressing order bell 5, the player has the appearance of each reel (stop symbol). The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated with the aim of a symbol so as not to miss one combination. Others are the same as the middle push order bell 3 and the like, and the description is omitted. Note that the push order bell combination described in the first embodiment is substantially a five-option bell combination, but in the second embodiment, the correct operation sequence is six six-select bell combinations.

  FIG.55 and FIG.56 is the schematic diagram which showed the symbol display state of the window part in time series.

  In a spinning-type game machine, there is a way to stop the reel aiming at a specific pattern for the purpose of winning almost all the small roles won internally. As this specific pattern, many models employ the BAR pattern (DDT point) of the left drum 2a, and this hitting method is called a DDT hitting method derived from an insecticide. A cherry symbol is arranged under the BAR symbol, and when the cherry role is not won, the BAR symbol stops at the lower stage (BAR drop). When the cherry role is won, the cherry symbol stops at the middle or corner, and the cherry role can be won. On the other hand, when the watermelon role is elected, the BAR symbol slides one frame from the bottom and the watermelon symbol stops at the top, so that the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c are then operated to stop the watermelon symbol. .

  Since an experienced player plays a slot game using the DDT percussion method, even though the watermelon role is not won, the watermelon design has a sense of incongruity that it stops at the left drum 2a. It is an invention of a push order small part to solve.

  For example, when the main control unit 100 causes the left push order bell 1-1 shown in FIG. 52 to be won internally by random number lottery, as described above, the FUR1 + FUR4 + FUR11 to FUR16 condition devices are simultaneously operated (eight different small roles are provided). Simultaneous winning), and based on the operation order information (123), it is determined that the left → middle → 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, the sliding frame number table is created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation.

  FIG. 55 (A) shows a state where all the drum sections 2 are rotating from top to bottom, and the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the correct operation sequence by the DDT hitting method in this state. When operated (see FIG. 55A), the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. Then, control is performed to draw the replay symbol of the upper bell role into the effective line (the drum unit 2 is simply moved by the number of sliding frames, and four frames are sliding in FIG. 55B). In the state of FIG. 55 (B), 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. When the player performs the second stop operation on the middle stop button 10b 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 middle drum 2b is stopped, and control for drawing the cherry symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 55C). In the state shown in FIG. 55C, FUR1 is a temper. 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, performs control to draw the watermelon 1 symbol into the effective line, The top bell role is won (see FIG. 55D).

  56 (A) and 56 (B) are the same as FIGS. 55 (A) and 55 (B), and description thereof is omitted.

  In this state of FIG. 56 (B), 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. When the player performs the second stop operation on the right stop button 10c in the incorrect operation order, 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. The middle drum 2b is stopped within the range of frames, and for example, control for drawing the BAR symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 56C). In the state shown in FIG. 56C, the FUR 4 is a temper. 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 third stop operation is performed on the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation sequence, 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, controls the drawing of the bell symbol into the effective line, and inhibits it. The small role FUR4 is won (see FIG. 56D). In the case where the first stop operation is an incorrect operation, the description is made with reference to FIG. 27 and the like in the first embodiment.

  FIG. 57 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  When the main control unit 100 internally wins the middle push order bell 3-1 shown in FIG. 53 by random number lottery, as described above, FUR2 + FUR5 and the six obstructive condition devices are simultaneously operated (eight different small roles). Are determined simultaneously, and 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, the sliding frame number table is created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation.

  FIG. 57 (A) shows a state in which all the drum sections 2 are rotating from top to bottom, as in FIG. 55 (A). In this state, the player performs an incorrect operation using the DDT hitting method. When the first stop operation of the left stop button 10a in the order is performed (see FIG. 57A), 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. The middle drum 2b is stopped within the range of frames, and control is performed to draw the replay symbol common to the six obstruction small roles into the effective line (the drum unit 2 is simply moved by the number of sliding frames, and FIG. 57 ( In B), only 4 frames are slipped). The player has no sense of incongruity in the state of FIG. 57 (B), and does not notice that the push order winning combination is elected. 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. When the second stop operation is performed on the stop button 10b, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, Control for drawing the watermelon 1 symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 57C). In the state shown in FIG. 57 (C), two inhibitory roles are played as a balance. 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, based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames, performs control to pull the red seven symbol into the effective line, One of the inhibitory roles is awarded (see FIG. 57D). However, when the stop operation is performed at a position where neither the red seven symbol nor the blank one symbol can be retracted, the small-sized combination is displayed. In the case of correct operation, since it demonstrated using many figures in Example 1, the description is used.

  FIG. 58 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  When the main control unit 100 causes the right push order bell 5-1 shown in FIG. 53 to be won internally by random number lottery, as described above, FUR2 + FUR5 and the six obstructing condition devices are simultaneously operated (eight different small components). It is determined that the winning operation order is the right → left → middle operation order based on the operation order information (312). 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, the sliding frame number table is created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation.

  FIG. 58 (A) shows a state in which all the drum sections 2 are rotating from top to bottom, as in FIG. 55 (A). When the first stop operation of the left stop button 10a in the order is performed (see FIG. 58 (A)), 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. The middle drum 2b is stopped within the range of frames, and control is performed to draw the replay symbol common to the six obstruction small roles into the effective line (the drum unit 2 is simply moved by the number of sliding frames, and FIG. 57 ( In B), only 4 frames are slipped). The player has no sense of incongruity in the state of FIG. 58 (B), and does not notice that the push order winning combination is elected. 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. When the second stop operation is performed on the stop button 10c, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, Control for drawing the blank 1 symbol into the effective line is performed (see FIG. 58C). In the state shown in FIG. 58 (C), two inhibitory roles are played as a balance. 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 third stop operation is performed on the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation sequence, The control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, but both the watermelon 1 symbol and the watermelon 2 symbol are drawn. When it cannot be inserted, the bell symbol is stopped and the small part of the small part is displayed (see FIG. 58D). In the case of correct operation, since it demonstrated using many figures in Example 1, the description is used.
